"Sacred Beasts? Who are they?" Frank wondered, as he looked at Matsuo, the Angelic Ego sighed, she had barely any ti to speak.
"Oh, they are the strongest people of Japan," explained Matsuo. "They carry within them the Legacy of one of the Four Sacred Cardinal Beasts. The Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermillion Bird, and the Black Tortoise, they're the last and strongest pillars of Japan as a country, maintaining it safe from country-level threats. But they… are very secretive and you ever barely will see them. They mostly live ordinary lives, I've never t one."
"H-Huh, just like that? Stronger than the Great Ancestor?" Frank asked.
"I think so…" Matsuo nodded. "All just hearsay at the end, we don't even know more about them other than this."
"Damn…" Frank thought about it for a mont. "Ah right, White what were you saying before? S-Sorry I got distracted…"
White glared at him with slight disdain, squinting her beautiful eyes, with blonde eyelashes that made her look extrely angelic and beautiful… Harumi began growing jealous with the prospect such a beautiful girl would be living with Frank from now on.
"As I was saying, I am not sure what I am myself, but I was made a spear before," she explained. "I was made using materials by my master and… Ah well, I am only a Replica of the original, so I will dissipate once my internal Mana runs out… The real is here."
She pointed at the weapons she was holding, which had beco dormant.
"Oh, the weapons…!" Matsuo said. "Aren't they dangerous? Is it okay to grab them like that?"
"It's fine, don't worry," White's Replica said. "Thank you for your consideration though. After Elfina fell unconscious, the spears also did the sa."
"S-So you're her replica? You're aware you're just a clone and the real one? Isn't it weird or creepy?" Erika asked sothing unneeded.
"Erika! Do you have to ask such weird things?" Harumi sighed.
"It's fine," White's Replica said. "I do indeed know I am a replica, and I don't have any particular feeling about it, quite honestly. I don't know if these mories will remain the next ti he projects or will transfer to my true self… but I am fine either way."
"W-Well, alright then…" Erika nodded. "Dad always told to say thanks to those that help out, so thank you for helping~!"
"Hm, I am here to serve after all, in this brief mont…" White's Replica muttered, glancing at Frank. "For now, Frank- no, master, you should trace the black spear. Both of us will be useful to you, even if only as replicas."
"You're right, I should do it now that I got the ti… Sorry Elfina," Frank felt a bit bad. "But I'll take this as compensation for exorcising you… I promise I'll help you recover."
Frank nodded, beginning to trace the black spear. His hand passed through the black spear as he felt all of its details and incredible appearance.
Slowly, circuits spread through the spear, which held no resistance now that it was unconscious, Frank felt a dark power engulf his body for a mont.
However, the dark power slowly beca part of him… of his soul.
Until sothing within his internal armory appeared, a black spear.
"Hundred percent!"
Thanks to his quick efforts, and without being interrupted, it took him a couple of seconds to get it done instantly.
"Nice, with this I got another new weapon, and-"
"You should definitely trace the armor, the sword, and the bow," White's Replica said. "You must use this ability of yours as much as possible, Frank… Hurry."
"O-Okay, alright, I had not thought about it, but you're right!" Frank nodded. "Let's do this…!"
After White's words, Frank moved to tracing the beautiful red bow of Fiere, with its own intricate designs and magical runes.
"Done with the bow…!"
It was much faster than with the two spears, as it was done within three seconds.
He moved to the armor, it was big and intricate, but it seed that even if the skill was "weapon projection" armor could also be projected as long as it had magical properties and was considered "equipnt".
"Armor done!"
And lastly, he moved to the divine sword that Sol carried around, it was big and possessed divine power within it.
This one took him a bit longer than both spears for so reason, the divinity it contained was hard to trace as he had not created or traced anything similar before.
"Phew… D-Done with this! Took more than I thought, and I'm tired already." Frank cleared the sweat off his forehead. "With this I got a new arsenal of powerful weapons I can Project…!"
"Nice! Now we should get out of here," Erika said. "I'm hungry and I want to go have dinner."
" too…" Harumi nodded. "We should report what happened to our clans."
"I wonder though, where did the witch go to? Her presence hasn't erged, she's gone," Matsuo said. "I guess she's-"
TRUUUM!
However, in that mont where Matsuo thought they were finally done, a dark shadow lood above them, rapidly manifesting into the shape of a woman!
"I suppose I'll simply have to get rid of you myself."
Her ruthless and cold words echoed through the skies, as Frank and his friends were suddenly frozen within ti.
"H-Huh?!"
His eyes widened, realizing he couldn't move, or even breathe, all of them were paralyzed right there, unable to move or do anything independently.
"W-What the fuck is going on?!"
As Frank wondered that, he looked around desperately… or well, he tried to.
The woman above them smiled, pointing her hands at them.
"Paralyzing a bunch of kids like you isn't any hard thing to do… Now, I'll kill you all except Frank, I want him fresh and alive for master to devour after all, heheh~!"
As the woman giggled, and Frank felt frustrated and furious he couldn't do a single thing…
FLAAASH!
A bright white light manifested from White's hands; the paralysis effect everyone was under suddenly disappeared.
"RUN!"
She only had one word for them, as she grabbed everyone and quickly flew away!
