Apparently not only did they lose their weapons, but also some of their power. Lucius didn't feel any different than he did before, though when he tried to sprout his wings nothing came out. He still didn't feel any different from before. It was than that Perry stood up and explained the reason behind her weapon, just as the teacher asked them to. Lucius listened to her, he understood why he was so attracted to her at first; she was a charmer, and manipulator, and person with a way with words, just like him. Of course she hasn't used her powers or skills like Lucius has, but that didn't mean that she couldn't be as good or even better than him. Once Perry was finished Lucius stood up and volunteered himself.
"My weapon is the Morning Star, both the name of the weapon and the type of weapon itself. Many would dismiss it as a crude and barbaric weapon, but I think there's a certain elegance that only it's brutal simplicity can convey. The Morning Star is a simple weapon to explain a simple fact of life; the most useful isn't always the fanciest. Many people would create majestic weapons for art and glory, but in the end my Morning Star is still just a tool, a means to an end. To dismiss it as crude for it's lack of complication just shows how unenlightened you can be; sometimes the gods aren't just 't some strange, convoluted behind beyond comprehension. Sometimes it's just a simple, albeit very pointed, person who has a job to do and needs to do it as quickly and efficiently as he can. It's a boring weapon that many people don't appreciate, but it gets the job done and doesn't require you taking years upon years of practice to use it effectively."
When Lucius was finished Machina decided to go next. Like the two before her she stood up and spoke with a mechanical monotone. "My weapons are firearms. Unlike some, they were not initially created to be better than others. They were, during it's birth, cumbersome and inferior compared to more traditional weapons, such as a bow or a sword. And yet despite it's initial flaws, guns have improved over the years. From their humble beginnings with matchlock, black powder, and ramrods, guns of the current modern age can break through the armor that once protected the knights of old. Now guns can be created to break through even the hardest of mortal armor, to destroy entire landscapes and others from afar. They have evolved from their simple and crude appearance and have become better and stronger, and show no signs of halting their advancement. There is no limit to how far a gun will improve. All there is, is what the next goal shall be, and whom shall reach this goal first. So long as I exist, I will ensure that my weapon continues to grow, and in turn it shall empower me as well."
