What You'll Learn
King's Spirit Spear Chastiefol
King's Sacred Treasure is the Spirit Spear Chastiefol, a magical weapon crafted from the Sacred Tree found only in the Fairy Realm. It is the only Sacred Treasure not created by Dubs but by the Sacred Tree itself.
Chastiefol is a powerful weapon capable of levitation and changing its form at will. It is also the first Sacred Treasure to be introduced in the series and is the most frequently used by its owner, King. Without it, King is helpless in battle. Chastiefol typically appears as a large, green pillow that floats alongside King, but during combat, it transforms into a long, broad golden boar spear.
The spear has ten different forms, each with a "true form" that King can unleash for even more power. The first eight forms are:
- Chastiefol: A large, long staff with a decorative flower design and a large blade within the flower.
- Bumblebee: King launches a multitude of attacks that swarm the enemy in all directions.
- Sabaki no Yari: King throws magical power into Chastiefol and throws it over his opponent from the sky.
- Guardian: A large, muscular stuffed bear with multiple arms, increasing its strength and attack capabilities.
- Fossilization: A twin-headed spear with a spearhead shaped like crab claws, capable of petrifying an individual.
- Sunflower: A gigantic shoot that blooms and shoots several projectiles capable of mass destruction.
- Increase: An army of small kunai-like spears that King controls with the motion of his hands.
- Luminosity: Chastiefol transforms into a luminescent, ringed sphere that illuminates dark places.
The ninth and tenth forms of Chastiefol are still unknown.
Chastiefol is capable of working with the abilities of the other Seven Deadly Sins to execute combined attacks, such as Cross Shooting and High Tension Rush with Diane, Celestial Arrow with Gowther, and Triple Prison with Merlin.
The name "Chastiefol" comes from Old French, meaning "fool punisher" or " [to] punish the fool(s)". It is also the name of King Arthur's sword, Excalibur, in the medieval French story "Le Chevalier au Papegau".

Gowther's Twin Bow Herritt
The Twin Bow Herritt greatly increases the range of Gowther's Invasion power, allowing him to rewrite the memories of dozens of Holy Knights during the infiltration of the Kingdom of Liones. It also enables Gowther to automatically lock and track targets. One of the special abilities of the Twin Bow is the Jido Tsuibi Mode, or "Automatic Tracking Mode", where Gowther forms a cross with the bows by resting one hand over the other, allowing him to automatically lock onto a target. Another ability is the Tokusei - Han'i Kakudai, or "Ability - Range Expansion", which extends the range of his magic attacks.
The Twin Bow Herritt is the third Sacred Treasure to be revealed in the series. It is not known whether it was given to Gowther or built into him by Demon Gowther.

Ban's Holy Staff Courechouse
The Holy Staff Courechouse is the Sacred Treasure of Ban, the Fox's Sin of Greed of the Seven Deadly Sins. Courechouse is a four-sectioned staff with spikes at each end. It is a powerful weapon that fully draws out Ban's powers, strengthening his physical and mental abilities to their maximum level. It can also lengthen and distort its chain angle, allowing Ban to attack from any angle and over a significant distance at an extremely high speed. This ability to distort its shape means Courechouse has no need to follow the laws of physics, allowing Ban to unleash attacks with incredible force, range, and speed.
The Holy Staff Courechouse is first introduced in the anime, where Ban wields it in his Holy Knight armour. In Arthurian Mythology, Courechouse is the name of King Ban's sword. The name Courechouse comes from the French word "Courroucé", which means "Wrathful".
Ban lost his Sacred Treasure for an extended period when it was stolen from him after he was captured by the Weird Fangs. It was revealed that Merlin had obtained possession of Courechouse and she returned it to Ban during their battle against the Chimera Indura.
The unique ability of Courechouse is Super Concentration, which raises Ban's physical and mental capabilities to their maximum level of accuracy. This allows him to unleash a barrage of attacks with incredible precision, as demonstrated when he eliminated thousands of Indura babies in an instant, missing only one.

Merlin's Morning Star Aldan
Merlin can use Aldan to channel most of her spells, such as Exterminate Ray. Aldan is also used in conjunction with her telekinetic abilities and can display locations whenever Merlin wishes to look into it. The full range of its capabilities is still unknown.
One of Aldan's most notable abilities is its ability to house Merlin's soul. By transferring her consciousness into the orb, Merlin can communicate with others even when her physical body has been incapacitated or to avoid harm or death. It is also able to project illusions, such as an image of herself. Aldan is easily the most versatile of all the Sacred Treasures, doing what Merlin wants it to do rather than any preset abilities like the other Sacred Treasures.
Aldan is named after Merlin's mother in Welsh mythology, while the title, "Morning Star", refers to the Devil's true name, Lucifer, who people believed was Merlin's father.
