In the New World, sealing crystals are looked upon as legendary items imbued with great power. The legends and tales revolving around these items originate from the Slane Theocracy. According to Ainz, Sealing Crystals were valued as rare items that cannot be easily obtained or found in the New World.Overlord Volume 03 Chapter 5: PvN In a way, there are very few people like Ainz who actually knew about the true potency of its effect.

== Appearance ==
Sealing crystals seem to come in a variety of shapes and hold a quality of brilliance depending on what types of magic they contain.
== Abilities ==
Sealing crystals are incredibly powerful artifacts in the New World, as they are capable of containing 7th-tier or higher level of magic, an impossible feat for humans who are unable to contain or cast such magic. Thus, sealing crystals are considered extremely valuable to any nation that possesses one. The magic released by a sealing crystal can only be used once, so holders of these items would only use them as a last resort.
Afterward, one must go to great expense and perform extensive rituals to recharge the spell within the crystal.Overlord Volume 01 Chapter 5: Ruler of Death Normally, one could not store enhanced spells inside a spell crystal, but Widen Magic was an exception.Overlord Bonus Volume Chapter 4: The Beyonders
