The analyses of a sentence #3

A royal family member of Amber, the protagonist can search for or summon something or probe somewhere in Shadows, which are parallel worlds of Amber, through Logrus, invisible and magical limbs.
Frakir is his invisible, magical, and sentient weapon.

I heard something like a grunt from beyond the place where my vision misbehaved, and my left Logrus probe encountered something that it jolted slightly. Frakir began to throb simultaneous with my sensing an aura of menace through the probe. I sighed. I hadn't expected this was going to be easy.
["Trumps of Doom" of The Great Book of Amber by Roger Zelazny]
I don't think "simultaneous" indicates the state of "Frakir."
So I was wondering why it is "simultaneous," not "simultaneously."
And I'd like to know if I can replace "with" with "because of."
Thank you in advance for your help.
