Biography

Fran (Japanese: フラン, Hepburn: Furan)

She continued to live as a slave about to be sold and was being abused by one of the slave trader's lackeys. The slave trader then orders his lackey to stop so as not to ruin the merchandise; Fran was then loaded onto the caravan after that, she heard a voice, and then a bear attacked the caravan. The slave trader were all in a panic and instructed the slaves to act as bait for the monster; she watched as her slave companions were killed one by one before her; the monster then tried to attack her, but she luckily escaped and finds a sword which she uses to slay the monster, one of the slave traders arrives and shouts at her that she cost him a great fortune, he then starts abusing her while telling her that she will always be a slave. The sword kills the slave trader, and with Fran, they start a journey after she names him Master.

Together with Master, Fran spends a few days slaying monsters while steadily heading towards the city. Accustoming to Master's skill sharing and learning new moves, Fran began to gain experience in combat and magic. While en route to the city, the duo found a traveling caravan being attacked by a group of goblins; Fran proceeded to dispatch the goblins and got acquainted with the man Randell, a traveling merchant. As a sign of gratitude for Fran's help, Randell offers her a ride towards the city of Alessa. On the way there, he explains to her in detail information regarding the adventurer's guild and adventurer ranking system alongside corresponding responsibility as one progresses through the ranks. Finding interest in it, the duo decided that Fran would register as an adventurer upon reaching the city and sell the materials gained from slaying monsters.

Upon reaching the city, Fran gains access to Alessa without much trouble due to traveling alongside a merchant. Parting with Randell, the duo headed towards the adventurer guild. Master scans around, noticing the stats (in particular attack power) of other weapons held by other adventurers being higher than his; Master expresses depression and sadness for being a useless weapon; Fran then proceeds to console Master, claiming that he is not trash and that she treasures him. Arriving at the guild, Fran heads to the reception table, stating her intentions of registering as an adventurer. Nell, The receptionist gazes at Fran and warns her that she will be required to take a test and that the guild won't take any responsibility if Fran is injured during the mock battle in a disdainful tone. Fran was then brought to the training ground, meeting her examiner Donadrond a D-ranked Oni race adventurer with a buffed body; Donadrond remarked that he would not be holding back during the mock battle. Their mock battle began with Donadrond swiftly swinging his axe towards Fran, massively damaging the floor tiles upon contact, Fran retaliated by casting the combination of Earth Magic, binding Donadrond's leg and sealing his movement, and a succession of Fire Magic Tri Explosion chipping away the defense of Donadrond, Fran then proceeds to launch an lv7 sword technique, Dragon Fang, forming a massive blade thrust towards Donadrond's abdomen, sending the latter flying towards the wall crashing and buried in the rubble. In shock, miss receptionist expresses her surprise at how Fran was able to display such a monstrous demonstration of power in combat, remarking on her being able to dish out such a high-level attack despite her appearance. Fran then asked if she had passed the test, to which Donadrond responded by raising his hand and giving Fran a thumbs up as a sign of declaring that Fran passed the mock battle test with flying colors.

Overview

Personality and attributes

In appearance, Fran was extremely adorable, pretty-looking, petite, young black cat girl with dark eyes. She had short black hair to dark emerald hair whilst possessing black cat ears as well as a black cat tail. On her left ear, she wore a golden bangle decorated with a single red pearl.

Fran is also shown to be quite humble, as she almost never flaunts her fame and influence through her personality. However her fame as the legendary Black Lightning Princess is something she takes pride in, for being able to prove that her tribe, the Black Cats, which were looked upon as inferior in social status for being weak, could give rise to someone as famous and as powerful as her. In a sense, she redeemed the pride and honor of her fellow tribe. Her multiple achievements and power were also a result of her mental fortitude, self-discipline, and conviction to achieve her goal of achieving Evolution; these traits also served as motivation through her arduous life as a slave and her stressful yet thorny journey as an adventurer. Her amiable trait of not giving up in any agonizing situation bore her result of what she is now and the attainment of her hard sought evolution.

Overall, she was shown to be a caring and kind person with a warm heart that gained her many invaluable friends and comrades ranging from merchants, sailors, nobles, royals, and adventurers despite her unsocial and verbally reticent nature.

Fran did not completely understand the concept of metaphors and at times would take things literally.

Fran's parents, Kenan and Framere were both adventurers. They were after dream of evolution, long awaited dream of Black Cats. Their persistence in never giving up this dream until their deaths had been shared with their daughter.

Amanda was stricken with Fran the moment she met her due to her love for children and, as she later realized, because Fran's parents were children from her orphanage. While Amanda makes it her mission to help Fran whenever she can, Fran mostly saw her as a nuisance because she kept showing up wherever she went while she was staying in Alessa and because of her mostly denied insistence that Fran call her "Mama". Despite so, Fran view Amanda as a role model of a powerful experienced adventurer she attempt to surpass and Fran has a great amount of trust on Amanda enough to reveal the true nature of Master.

Teacher was Fran's sword as well as guardian. With help of teacher's ability to gain skills from any Monster crystals, she has gained access to a large variety of skill in a very short amount of time.
