## Basic Info

Fran, the enigmatic Black Cat adventurer, possesses a set of abilities that make her a formidable force in battle. At just 12 years old, she defies expectations with her extraordinary combat prowess, growth rate, and versatility. Her abilities are a blend of swordsmanship, magic, and innate talents, creating a unique fighting style that keeps her enemies on their toes.

**Physical Attributes:**
Fran's physical attributes are exceptional, even for her age. Her HP, Strength, Agility, and Magic stats are significantly higher than average, allowing her to excel both in close combat and spellcasting. Her Strength of 286 grants her the power to deliver devastating blows, while an Agility of 275 gives her incredible speed and reflexes. This combination allows her to maneuver swiftly and strike with precision.

**Combat Skills:**
Fran's skills encompass a wide range of techniques, reflecting her diverse training and experiences. Her skill levels in Sword Mastery and Sword Arts are both at the maximum, indicating her mastery of swordsmanship. She wields her weapon with deadly precision and can execute complex sword techniques with ease. Fran's Blade Mage class adds a layer of magic to her combat style, enabling her to combine swordplay and spellcasting seamlessly.

**Magic Mastery:**
Fran's magical abilities are equally impressive. She has mastered Wind Magic, Fire Magic, and even Spirit Magic, showcasing her proficiency in various magical disciplines. Her control over magic allows her to imbue her sword strikes with elemental properties, enhancing her attacks. Her mastery of Wind Magic empowers her with offensive and defensive capabilities, and her Fire Magic unleashes destructive flames upon her foes.

**Awakening and Transformations:**
Fran's unique trait lies in her awakenings and transformations. Her Awakening, the Black Heavenly Tigerkin, envelops her in black lightning, enhancing her combat abilities further. In this state, she gains access to techniques like Brilliant Lightning Rush and Black Lightning Thundercat Roll, granting her exceptional speed and power.

Fran's Divine Manifestation is a step beyond her Awakening, imbuing her attacks with divine attributes. Her Divine Heavenly Tigerkin Primal God Beast form enhances her Strength, Vitality, and speed, allowing her to devastate foes with divine-infused strikes and magic. This state offers unparalleled power and control, solidifying her as a high-ranking combatant.

**Leadership and Influence:**
While initially lacking in leadership skills, Fran's experiences have pushed her to evolve in this aspect as well. Her domineering presence and combat prowess allow her to command groups effectively, as demonstrated when she led a battalion of adventurers against anti-demon forces. Additionally, her teaching ability shines, passing on her combat knowledge to others, enhancing their skills and transforming them into more capable fighters.

**Combat High and Battle Instincts:**
Fran's unique trait of combat high and her penchant for battle give her an almost instinctual sense for combat situations. This enables her to excel in heated fights, adapting quickly and capitalizing on openings. Her combat instincts are so sharp that she can halt battles between groups and even instruct others effectively during combat.

**Divine Attribute:**
Fran's ability to imbue her attacks with divine attributes sets her apart. Unlike elemental magic, divine attribute attacks cannot be resisted or nullified by traditional means. This makes her attacks even more potent, adding a layer of unpredictability to her combat style.

In conclusion, Fran's abilities make her a true force to be reckoned with in the world of adventurers. Her mastery of swordsmanship, magic, and her unique transformations elevate her beyond her years. From her rapid growth rate to her combat high, Fran continues to evolve, leaving her mark as a legendary Black Cat warrior with the power to rival even the mightiest of adversaries.

Fran is an extremely strong fighter, the essence of her formidable skill comes from her latent talent in both sword combat and magic spell wielding with a quick wit alongside fast learning nature and growth rate in battle ability reflected by skill with stat/level. Given the fact that she can share some of the skills possessed by Master and her own skill that she learned throughout her recently begun career as an adventurer which put her into multiple combat situation against foe par and beyond her stat has broaden her overall experience as a combatant. Her astounding growth and combat prowess earned her respect and reputation as an adventurer particularly after her feat in the Tournament which widely displayed her versatility and enhance her already wide spreading reputation as Magic Sword Girl into her recently gained new alias Black Lightning Princess for her capability to take on seasoned A ranked top adventurer. The harassment she suffered seems to have halted ever since her fearsome battle capability in Ummut's tournament were displayed and spread across continent alongside her impactful new nickname the legendary Black Lightning Princess which also serve to indicate her as the first evolved Black Catkin tribe after 500 years. Her current fame and influence helps to keeps the adventurer at bay from trying to mess with her lest invoke her rage given the fact that Fran rough up every adventurer or nasty people who harasses her which also spread across as one of the hearsay. Amanda during the tournament remarked that she expected that Fran would one day surpass her despite the latter being a seasoned A rank adventurer after 10 years but much to her surprise that Fran were able to fight on par against her after only brief few months after their first meeting in guild where Fran begun her adventurer career remarking the monstrosity of Fran's astounding growth as a combatant. Fran quick growth also contributed by her habit and capability to clear dungeon solo and fighting extremely large group of monster mobs constantly resulting massive experience point gain.

With Fran's already versatile stat and Awakening release which boost her stat even further allowing her to defeat two experienced A ranked adventurer Remmus and Goldalfa in 1 versus 1 match, a feat which surprised every spectator and beyond anyone's expectation given that Fran is a C ranked adventurer during the tournament.

Fran's stat and does not reflect her C rank status, her stat (excluding Awakening) put her combat ability in a class of a fresh new A ranked adventurer and that is excluding all the stat boost she will obtain from her Awakening activation. Adding her awakening and recently evolved Sword Arts -> Sword Lord Arts and the fact that she leveled up and gained few more skills after the tournament (level 45) up to this point (current level 49) would allow her to take on and defeat A ranked adventurer which she struggled to defeat during tournament with much more ease now. After Fran's training in forest post chapter 510, her overall strength has once again greatly enhanced to the point that she is almost closely approaching to S-Ranked adventurer including her changes of class from Sword Mage to Sword King and her enhanced level and stat which is Level 61 including better mastery of Magic and her new prolonged awakened state duration. Current Fran were able to overwhelm and defeat B-Ranked Monster with just sheer sword technique alone using normal magic sword without the aid of using magic or using Master as a weapon signifying the terrible growth of her in combat which Amanda remarked that current Fran alone without Master or awakening could easily put herself in mortal danger as both Fran's strength and speed greatly surpasses her causing her to be in cold sweat during forest sparring.

As of chapter 913, Fran attained level 70 and a new title **Matchless Warrior** which grant +100 to her overall stat and +200 to both hp and mp and her level gain boosted Fran's stat tremendously especially speed and magic which increased more than 300 overall since level 61 and her hp and mp pushing beyond 1000. Based on estimation of title + level gain, Fran's overall estimated stat gain compared to level 61 were at least 160 across the board except for speed and magic which increased at least by 310 and hp and mp increaesed by 500. Fran's current base stat without awakening place her in the veteran A Rank bracket and awakening will boost her stat to the level of a fresh S Ranker equivalent. Currently, Fran's overall base stat has surpassed Amanda and supposedly current Fran will be able to defeat Amanda without awakening and will continue to grow even stronger due to high stat gain after level 70 in exchange huge experience required and subsequent slow leveling up.

**Awakening : Black Heavenly Tigerkin**

Upon unleash, Fran will be cladded with a layer of impressive black lightning enveloping her body. Unlike other beastman, Fran does not experiences a substantial physical alteration aside from gaining black lightning aura, golden pupils, and striped tail. Post awakening will grant several skills accessible by Fran such as Brilliant Lightning Rush and additional stat of 300 will be added. Awakening duration will end as Fran unleashes her awakening ultimate skill The Black Lightning Advent or upon depletion of mana. The condition of unlocking awakening is to achieve the initial evolution.

Skills :

Brilliant Lightning Rush

Black Lightning Thundercat Roll

Black Lightning Divine Claw (one of the most powerful technique that is difficult to unleash)

Black Lightning Advent (penultimate skill in this form that cancels awakening form upon evoking and completion of attack)

Overall Combat Rating For This Form : Top A Adventurer Rank

(Rating were given based on base stat without calculating any external boost including Master or any equipment adorned )

Unlike the awakening of Black Heavenly Tigerkin upon unleashing, several layers of lotus bud formed black lightning will be seen enveloping Fran while affecting everything within it's vicinity. Awakening complete when the black lightning lotus petal exploded as Fran emerges yet again without substantial changes, exhibiting the similar feature of Black Heavenly Tigerkin but with a longer fangs and nails alongside an aura even more majestic than her Heavenly Tigerkin form with the manifestation of divine energy aura. Divine awakening grant an off chart addition of stat to Fran by at least 1000, subsequently boosting her Strength and Vitality beyond 1000 and her speed breaking the threshold of 2000 that which is only her base stat before adding any bonus stat she gained from skills. In this form, Fran is capable of evoking black lightning from her palm as thick as a telephone pole with a damage output equal to her Black Lightning Advent in a rapid succession and will not cancel her awakening. Every type of attack unleashed by Fran in divine form were imbued with Divine attribute similar to her Sword God Transformation but unlike it, Fran will not gain an autonamous movement but rather an oppressive bursting of power with full control of mana energy as well as movement speed beyond the speed of sound and light. Side effect from this awakening causes Fran to be more elated than usual and more aggressive in a beastly manner suggesting personality and behavioural changes were present though slight without compensating her sanity as well as sharper senses boosting her dynamic vision and spatial recognition beyond limit allowing her to detect high speed motion in a second by second frame. Condition to execute this awakening has yet to be known as Fran attained it after being exposed to Saintess Sophie's Divine Hymn therefore no free access to it.
Skills :
Divine Black Lightning Rush
Divine Lightspeed Thundercat Roll
Divine Lightning Godspeed Claw
Divine Black Thunder Advent (No longer cancel awakening)
Divine Lightning Thunder Strike (unleashing thunder from palm with similar destruction force as Black Lightning Advent)
Divine Black Lightning Tigercrash (the most destructive skill in divine awakening taking form of a massive black lightning dragon razing everything within it's path and obliterate everything. Sheer power of this technique could send any combatant equal to S Rank to their maker. This technique will not cancel awakening but depletes most of the mana and physical stamina of Fran resulting an intrusive fatigue)
Overall Combat Rating In This Form: High S Adventurer Rank
(Rating were given based on base stat without calculating any external boost including Master or any equipment adorned )

## Combat Style

Fran have a distinct unique style in combat, having taught by Master and the job class agreed by both Master and Fran namely Sword Mage route promised the ability and usage of Sword Art in conjunction with Magic granting an efficiency in battle. With swordmage having to master the combination of rudimentary sword skill and at least basic magic for the class to actually work in dealing physical damage and magic damage at norms to form a hybrid damage. What makes Fran special is that, by standard Sword Mage could not attain what a focused class could achieve in mastery of Swordplay and Magic Casting as standard swordmage could only have a lower mastery of both compared to single focused job class (Swordsman & Mage) while in Fran's case she was able to master high level sword style and high level magic beyond single class of physical and magic damage dealer due to skill sharing and her innate talent in learning in other words her skill were not bounded by class limitation. Fran is shown able to master all forms of magic and physical sword art and were able to inflict DPS beyond her job class threshold including high healing magic giving her a massive possible way to handle any combat situation above her level, adding up her innate evolve transformation increases her overall library of combat styles and produces a DPS so powerful that it can slay an A rank Adventurer in one strike should they have not taken any defensive measure. Due to such reason, Fran were able to operate as a one man party or army within dungeon or any combat situation thus eliminating the need of having other job class party members and support for as long as she can maintain her MP gauge to keep up with the healing in order to keep her physical wound healed, maintaining stamina to nonstop inflicting sword strike damage while at the same time to continuously casting magic in rapid succession as MP is very much pivotal to her combat style to be effective. After forest training arc, Fran have tremendously improved herself not just from change of class into Sword King which slightly lower her magic mastery and tremendously enhanced her sword skill permanently but in fact Fran trained her magic to overwrite the magic mastery reduction which not only improves her magic mastery greater than before. Fran has also closed gap of all her inherent weaknesses through sheer training to which she is now capable to respond to any combat situation and cast magic almost instantly which place the current Fran's combat capability far from any normal A-Ranked Adventurer and almost closely approaches the realm of S-Rank. Her battle technique currently were able to overwhelm B-Ranked Monster which equals to A-Ranked Adventurer with just sheer sword technique alone.

**Fran's Divine Manifestation**
Divine manifestation is a condition when a being gained a form or technique that adds divine attribute, it manifest usually in divine transformation and divine beast. In Fran's case both her God Of Sword Transformation and Divine Heavenly Tigerkin offers divine attribute which increases her physical combat prowess, magic, stamina capacity, and mana capacity beyond limit but also consume tremendous mana and stamina.
**Divine Attribute**
Divine attribute is an attribute that does fall into the category of elemental magic or sub element of any as divine attribute is a holy attribute that is intrinsically non-elemental which could be imbued into melee attack and magic. When magic were imbued with divine attribute, it changes properties. Lightning or Flame could be resisted or nullified with skills such as Lightning or Flame resistant or nullification but when divine attribute were imbued it turns into Divine Lightning or Divine Flame which no longer can be resisted or nullified by elemental skills as the properties changes. Currently there is no known method or skills that could resist or nullify divine attributes attack except high ranking anti-demon which is born with natural innate resistant towards divine attribute and the corrosion it causes to anti-demon. Divine attribute will not only changes the properties but also enhances the destructive power be it melee or magic attack causing them to ignore defenses dealing direct damage without any possibility of mitigation.

## Other Traits

**Commanding & Conquer**

Despite of having powerful and puissant combat aptitude also a dauntless might on her own right, Fran were incapable of leading or commanding a group or party of adventurer at first. Her lack of leadership quality were resulted by her less social, constant solo adventuring and solo dungeon diving gives her little to no chance to be in a party much less leading a group of adventurer, her reticent personality does not help the situation either infact it does the contrary. Although this does not pose any issue for her to improve her combat ability alone as she is decently capable of solo adventuring but it also prevented her to enhance her adventurer ranking above C despite her combat capability being A due to the requirements of having leadership quality and not just the capability of being one man army in order to rise above C.

Through recent escapades and endeavour in Goldicia against anti-demon hordes allowed Fran to command a 100-strong army of adventurers giving her a chance to display and develop her leadership quality earning trust among the adventurers for being able to lead her batallion in a war and without fatal casualties.

**Domineering Crowd Control**

Fran were capable of asserting her forceful aura to stop two groups of combatant, compelling them into ceasefire and further reprimanding their leaders. Her effectiveness in crowd control to prevent further unneccessary casualties were due to her domineering aura capable of inciting fear, her prestige as an adventurer, and her fearsome combat prowess.

**Mentoring & Tutoring**

Various of exposure to combat situation, constant guide from Shisho, and advance magic lessons from Amanda equips Fran with knowledge and skills to be one of the most combat efficient adventurer in the world. Imitating the similar method while adding in her own personal experiences allowing her to impart knowledge and skills to others effectively, undoubtedly Fran is a very good teacher. From tutoring Gamud's apprentices on ship to teaching Black Catkin Tribe the basics of magic and finally taking on the role of a combat instructor in the Academy of Magic, almost everyone single person whom receives tutoring from Fran has undergone significant changes and gains in their combat capability cementing the fact of Fran's versatility as a mentor.

**Battle Mania & Combat High**

Possessing a penchant for violence, Fran is a no stranger to skirmishes and fight whenever there is an opportunity for one and even as far as to make an excuses to engage in a mortal combat situation against an individual or monsters. Having an abnormal amount of fondness to fighting does entails her to some unwanted trouble and attention but at the same time causing her rapidly expanding skills and battle experiences to broaden and diversify ever so quickly. Fran experiences combat high during heated fight and extended battle against powerful opponent resulting in an adrenaline rush which manifested the joy and elation within her to the extent of combat reverie.
