4.7 Guardian Medallions

The girl they were looking for was actually in the garden watching the recordings of the earlier battle. But to the Vessels' surprise, Helen was watching it using a smaller cylindrical item together with her laptop.

"That girl is taking things easy," Itsuki grumbled. "She's going to get it this time."

But before he could take a step to approach Helen and reprimand her for the nonchalant attitude she was showing towards the situation, a bandaged hand soon blocked him off, surprising the composer. When Itsuki looked up, he saw Shuichi's gaze fixated on Helen and Eichirou shook his head, signaling him that he shouldn't do anything at the moment.

"Why?"

However, the answer he got was something that caught the two older Vessels' attention. Itsuki followed the direction to where their gazes were fixed. That was when he finally understood why they stopped him from doing anything to Helen. Shuichi and Eichirou's focus was on the cylindrical item that Helen was using to play the recordings. It was the same as how the Celestial Shifters were projecting the situation of a Tarean attack to the Vessels.

"But... how?"

None of them were able to come up with an answer. Shuichi's mind, however, was more concerned about the six wings on one end of that cylinder. A certain question ran into his head as soon as he saw that. Was it just a coincidence that the six wings were also stitched on the pink denim jacket that Shuichi gave to Helen as a gift before?

Before any of the male Vessels could do anything, they soon saw Misae approaching Helen who still seemed to be unaware of the Vessels' presence.

"Helen-chan," the archer called out, which soon caught the girl's attention.

Helen turned around and finally saw the Vessels now approaching her. "Everyone... You seem to recover quite fast. Especially you, Hiwara-san."

"It takes more than this to bring me down for good," Shuichi answered proudly which made Helen smile.

"Why are you watching the battle sequence from earlier?" Eichirou asked.

The girl's focus soon returned to the footage and typed something down from her laptop, thereby rewinding the events she was just watching a while back until it reached the scene where the sudden flash of red light appeared from the lotus symbol on SeitenFire's helmet. She soon paused it right there.

"What are you thinking?" Erika inquired somberly which surprised the other Vessels.

For a while, Helen didn't say anything. She was just looking at the paused footage intently.

"Why did that happen, anyway?" Misae muttered as she, too, was looking at the paused footage.

Moments later, Helen faced the Vessels who were all looking at her, much to her surprise and confusion at the same time. "You guys can be a little scary when you all look at me like that."

"Sorry..."

"Setting that aside for now... Are you guys aware of the Guardian Medallions?"

Now it wasn't just Helen who felt confused, but also the Vessels because of that question.

"Don't tell me... you're not aware of it?"

"There's a reason for that, Helen," Hideoki was the one who responded and made the Vessels, and even Kanako and Helen turned to the source of it. "They haven't heard about it, that's why. I should've mentioned it to them as soon as they were awakened."

"What's a Guardian Medallion, Dad?" Eichirou asked his father.

"It's the second classification of the Spirit Power Medallions. As you know, the Vessel Medallions were the first and the more known classification of the Spirit Power Medallions. They enable you to use the powers of the Grand Vessel Spirits and summon them, as well. The Guardian Medallions hold almost a similar purpose and power."
