Chapter 23 - Chapter 14

The right gauntlet then got up and walk over to the left one that had not moved or acted since grabbing its owner's collar.

Once she got over there it was her that seemingly became like a statue as the left one started moving and speaking once again.

"Do not run away again when let go" the left one said.

Their owner sighed as he had enough issues to deal with right now and was lacking in allies plus a means to defend himself too. The two of them seem loyal enough to him at the moment and thus would have his trust. His trust at least for the moment as he was still wary of them though as that did not change at all.

"Fine I will not run," he told them "So you two are claiming that I am your owner,"

"That is correct this weapon belongs to you," the left gauntlet said

Letting go of the left gauntlet then walked over to where the right was standing and took their hand that was not covered in gauntlet like their own.

"Greetings, owner. Dual Type sentient weapon form gauntlet at your service" the two of them said in unison as they made moves that mirror one another with their formal greeting.

"I am Rangi then," Rangi told them.

"What are your orders, owner Rangi," they both asked

Though Rangi was busy looking through his bag that miraculously had not fallen off him during everything he had been through recently. Rummaging through his bag as he was searching for something which caught the two girl's attention.

"What are you looking for owner? Is assistance required" the two asked together leading over his shoulder with normal hands still clasped together.

Rangi was not aware that it was normal for a sentient weapon to be naked in the first place. They were not considered human just sentient objects thus why the need for modesty. Had this as his response to their question.

"Looking for something for you to wear as you two are naked after all" Rangi declared.

In one of the rare moments where they were not holding the other hand but still both remained fully activated and animated. The two girls both pounded their normal hands into their gauntlet covered ones.

"Ohhhhh...Understood" the girls said

Though they seemingly understood what Rangi meant though noticed he was wearing something over his body thus they should do the same to match their owner. They did not have a sense of modest just degree to think more critically than other sentient weapons that have only just been awakened for the first time at least.

A lot of sentient weapons came with the ability to create a sheath for themselves. They were weapons after all thus always being in an exposed state could cause harm to their owner. After all, it would be dangerous to walk around with a bladed weapon that does not have some kind of cover when not in use. Unlike normal sheaths which have to be created and obtained after or before the weapon. The sheath of a sentient weapon was an ability and thus could be turned on and off at will. Even non bladed and blunt force weapons had this ability as a result. However, this was normally only for their true form as weapons.

"Is this to your liking, owner?" the two of them asked him

They had managed to create two raggy cloaks that just covered their bodies. The cloaks just had a hole for their head and just covered their front and backs. Leaving their sides exposed though.

"Guess it will have to do for now," Rangi said

"Affirmative" the two stated

"Stop that by the way," he told them

"Stop what?" both of them replied cock their heads to the side

"Stop speaking as one as you are clearly two different beings," he told them

"This one is a gauntlet" they both replied.

"Right but there are two of you," he said

"We are a gauntlet" they both replied again

This went on for a while until Rangi stopped holding his head in his hands

"Owner is there something the matter" the two girls stated

Both of them were unaware that they were the matter that was causing Rangi's distress

"You are now Gau *looking at the one that had a gauntlet as their right hand* while you are now Let *looking at the one that had a gauntlet as their left hand*," he told them.

"Gau and Let," they said together each pointing at themselves

"Those are going to be your names from now on," Rangi told them

"Why do I have two names I am merely one weapon," they asked

What the newly dubbed Gau and Let were not aware of was this yet. However one move by Rangi who just wanted so that the two of them did not speak at the exact same time anymore. It might have prevented them from falling into one of the two categories that exist for dual type sentient weapons such as themselves. They were the type where two souls merged into one and created a weapon that was two pieces or a pair. In their case, they became a pair of gauntlets where before were needed for the weapon to be considered complete.

However, the talking at once thing was a side effect of two souls merging together into one. They became one soul with two bodies. This leads to one soul that has always split its focus on controlling two bodies at all times. One soul uses one body at a time with the other remaining unused.

Rangi was unknowingly prevented the fusing process from continuing. The two girl's souls were connected as one but had not fused together fully just yet.
