=====

Holy Sword Excalibur

Miraculous holy sword forged by God.
This legendary sword was once wielded by the great hero Arthur.
Its power is to bring glory to its wielder.
Using light, it can increase its range by producing a blade of light that can stretch out to a distance, decimating anything within its reach.
In addition, its sheath can “rewind time” back to a point in time where a certain event has not happened yet.

Ability Rank: 【ＳＳＳ】

The first legendary armament that Rhode materialized.
A female.
160cm tall. Has golden hair that extends to her hip, and is wearing a silver full plate and red cloak.
Legendary armament with the greatest ability as of now. Her high status was also reflected in the way she speaks.
Hasn’t shown all of her abilities yet, so her upper ceiling is still a mystery.
Her personality was bright and clean, her righteousness stands out through her knightly attitude.
She spoke like a man, but her dream of being able to comb her hair shows that she also has a feminine side.
Arthur was a person who valued his equipment, and Excalibur was apparently especially valuable for him.

=====

Dragonslayer Sword Balmung

A legendary greatsword forged by God, famous for being wielded by the hero Siegfried.
Siegfried was known as an excellent dragon hunter, but most of his feats were attributed to Balmung.

The reason being the special rune engraved on Balmung that allows its blade to cut through the dragon’s scale with ease.
Therefore, it gained the moniker of “Dragon Slaying Sword”.

However, it does have a weakness which is lightning.

Ability Rank:【ＳＳ】

The colossal sword Rhode summoned during his fight against Gagan.
A female.
170cm tall. She has long black hair tied behind her and wears black armor with golden trims.
She got angered a little upon finding out that Rhode could not Materialize her because she was too heavy.
She had her dream of hunting a dragon with her own hands and was delighted to swing her sword when she split the Flame Wyvern in half.
She’s a bit childish and petty, especially when her weight is mentioned.
She was so happy that she got to kill a wyvern, but forgot to tell Rhode that there was another one nearby.
Siegfried was an excellent warrior, but cared little for his weapon, therefore Balmung didn’t really like him.

=====

Crafted by a Goddess, it’s a staff that could bring forth miracles.
Formerly wielded by the Goddess Hermes due to a misunderstanding, it was left abandoned in the mortal world.

It is said to bring monetary success to its wielder.

Not good at sea.

Weapon Rank :【ＳＳＳ】
Ability Rank :【ＳＳ】

First appeared when Rhode needed to subdue a giant green crab.
A Male.
185cm tall. He has red hair, golden eyes, and wears something like a military uniform with colors reminiscent of lightning and fire.
Unusually weak to anything related to sea due to his own attribute, but was able to gain slight resistance to it thanks to a certain person.
Currently holds the most usage due to his ease of use and the fact that just by holding him, Rhode can gain lightning-like speed.
When in trouble, Brionac is usually enough to settle it.
He has pledged allegiance to Rhode who gave him his body, and he seems to have no particular wishes.
He would start sweating upon the mention of sea, and his tone become sloppier.
The main weapon of Lugh, among many others.

Goddess’ shield Aegis

A shield of absolute defense crafted by the blacksmith God for a certain Goddess.

The shield was once wielded by the Goddess before being passed down to the hero Perseus.

Due to Aegis’ protection, Perseus was said to never suffer any wound in battle.

The shield is capable of invoking the Divine Barrier that can prevent any attacks for a certain duration.
Although limited, it also has an ability to petrify the enemy.

However it has an innate disadvantage of slowing down the wielder by an extreme rate.

First appeared during the fight against the horde of war wolves.
A female.
140cm tall. She has white hair, red eyes, and white heavy armor that doesn’t really suit her little frame.
She’s quite slow on the legs due to the weight of her armor.
However, the appearance of her running desperately is also very lovely.
She can raise her barrier even from a distance, but does so more effectively if she’s nearby.
Petrification consumes a lot of magical power, and it takes time to activate, so this ability hasn’t been used that much, but once running, it actually has a pretty powerful effect.
Perseus, who had a lot of armaments, did not seem to be a person who treats his equipment carefully, but Aegis in particular seems to have been used quite a lot because of ease of use.
Her wish to eat sweets has been fulfilled, and Levi’s cooking was enough to make her faint.

=====

Ring of the Djinns Solomon

A legendary ring crafted by the gods to seal and control demons.
It draws its powers from the demons of a different world to ours.
To be precise, it’s a “ring that borrows the powers of otherworldly demons”.

Its powers are certainly supernatural to humans, but since it’s technically a borrowed power, the effect is not so high.

However, using it too often will cause the demons to be restless, bringing misfortune to the ring’s owner.

A large club and a greatbow formerly wielded by the legendary hero Heracles.
He made these weapons himself, but with Heracles being deified after his death, the two weapons were later considered legendary armaments.
Heracles never really named his weapons, so these two weapons were collectively referred to using his name.

Due to his immense strength, no regular weapon could withstand being wielded by Heracles.
Therefore he crafted a crude club from a particularly large branch of the World Tree Yggdrasil, and wielded it as his weapon ever since.
It is said that he had smashed countless monsters to death with this club, as the World Tree’s power rendered it nigh unbreakable.

On the other hand, the bow was also made from the branch of the same World Tree. The hydra’s leather used as the bowstring gave the bow an ability to infuse the arrow with deadly poison.
The bow itself cannot be notched without a considerable amount of strength, but its range and power were unrivaled.

The wielder of these two weapons would be granted with increased vitality, allowing to heal minor wounds almost instantly.
In addition to that, they also granted explosive strength just from wielding them together.
