"I'm beginning to regret this. I hate talking weapons! It's the worst trope ever! Please take away the Ego!" Frank asked me.

"Once the Ego is set it cannot be undone." I said. "So you're stuck with your little friend, don't worry I think he likes you!"

"GYAHAHAH! You damn little brat you wanted to get rid of me?! You're stuck with me FOREVER now!" Laughed Gram. "And my first command is to bring me blood! I want blood! Give me blood! Delicious, sweet bloo-"

Frank quickly stored Gram inside his Inventory for now.

"Sigh… He's insane. I hate it!" Frank cried.

"Well… Blame it to yourself. I told you there can be side effects when giving Egos to already very powerful weapons. The personalities they get might be… overbearing." I sighed, glancing back at Black.

"Huh? What are you looking at? I am not like that idiot at all!" Said Black angrily.

"Well at least the rest are well behaved." I sighed, looking at Shadrach, Silva, Aquamarine, White, Colora, and Yggdra.

"Oi! You're really doing this now?! Okay then, fine!" Black sighed, getting grumpier by the second. He even had two little arms made of shadows, which he crossed to show me his discomfort.

"Ahahaha… Come on Black don't get so angry." White tried to calm him down.

"You're saying that but its clear as water you're super happy to have been praised! I can tell it by how you're glowing." Black said.

"A-Ahahahh… T-That's not it!" White was terrible at lying.

"Agh just let me be…" Sighed Black.

"Don't be so grumpy." White said.

The two have some sort of chemistry, I have to admit it. Like a grumpy tsundere demon and a nice and gentle, yet clumsy angel. I guess that's how I would picture their true appearances. Though I cannot really tell how they'll ever look like once they get a proper Embodiment Skill that is not just an elemental embodiment.

"Heh, it is nice to be praised sometimes by Kireina-sama. We've gone through a lot ourselves, you know? I think I am her oldest companion amongst you lot. So call me senpai from now on." Shadrach told the other Egos.

"Huh? I am fairly sure you're a newbie!" Said Black.

"We don't really know who you were before you were summoned, sorry." White said.

"Me neither…" Aquamarine said.

"W-Wait, you didn't knew who I was?! But I… I even fought in the war against the Undead in the Miasmic Death Sea before reaching Helheim! Agh… Well, whatever." Sighed Shadrach, his dragon form surging like a spirit made of flames from the katana.

"Uuhhh… I-I don't know what to say…" Yggdra seemed confused about everything going on.

"M-Me neither… Let's just keep shut for now." Colora sighed.

You girls are way too shy…

"My arrows are moving on their own… What's this?" Fiere wondered.

"Ah, I gave a tiny ego to each arrow, now they can level up and can move around." I said. "It is experimental, some might… die, perhaps. But we'll see who last until the end. They have the ability of hitting targets and then coming back to you so you can shoot them again, pretty good right?"

"I never thought such a strategy was even feasible…" Fiere was amazed by the capabilities of Egos.

"My armor feels stronger as well." Sol said. "This is nice, indeed."

"Sigh… I'll have to get used to my talking sword now, but this is something I brought to myself." Frank quickly got over it.

Wait, wasn't that too quick?!

He kind of jumps from being an immature brat to being a pretty calm and composed young man.

I guess he was kind of forced to mature quickly, wasn't he?

Just what did he went through? He had yet to tell me his whole story.

Though I can imagine, if he awakened such powers in a modern earth with a secret magic society and stuff, he probably went through a lot, maybe even chased by others.

Frank quickly took out the sword from his inventory.

"You finally free me you damn brat!"

"Okay, you better behave."

"I ain't behaving!"

"Well then, you're going to the inventory until you behave."

"Eh?!"

And then he put him back there.

Then waited a bit and pulled him out.

"Oi! You think this is going to work? I am not suffering or anything-"

And again back in the inventory.

Then he pulled him out again.

"You dam brat stop this shit-"

And again…

"You…!"

And again..

"Geaagh!"

And again…

"Okay stop! STOP! You damn- AGGGHH!"

And the last time.

"Ugh… I'm going to fucking kill you…"

Gram was seemingly very tired.

It seems something happens to the egos that get inside the inventory. I haven't stored mine ever inside it, but perhaps something bad happens? Maybe it's the whole-time dilation and space alteration thing. Maybe it fucks over their time perception and makes then think they've lived an eternity there?

"So you understand?"

"Yeah… Don't… I don't want to spend another hundred years there…"

"H-Hundred years?!"

Did I heard that right?

Frank looked back at me.

"Yeah I can only store non-living beings, but it seems egos work… I am able to alter the time dilation inside this space, so a few seconds were like dozens of years." Said Frank.

Despite his baby face he's quite the merciless brat.

For now, I'll just ignore this fact.

"…Alright then! Everyone, time to get going! We are all geared up for the final boss, let's go get him."

Like that, we jumped back into the water and onwards into the depths of Floor Five.

Right there, there was a large castle made of colorful corals, and within it, I could sense the presence of the Boss.

Floor 5 was completely desertic, there wasn't any monster worth mentioning. We found some of the previous floors' monsters, a few yeah, but with our newly enchanted equipment- well, their newly enchanted equipment, we swept through them like nothing..
