* Catholic Church

The **Excalibur Destruction**, also known as the **Holy Sword of Destruction**, is one of the seven Holy Swords created by the Christian Faction in the Excalibur Project.

It belongs to the Catholic Church and is currently wielded by the exorcist Eleanor Richards.

## Summary

The Excalibur Destruction is one of the seven Holy Swords created by the Christian Faction through a combination of advanced thaumaturgy by those who had reached the territory of gods and ancient Edenith technology to create new powerful weapons for the Church after the True Excalibur was returned to the Lady of the Lake.

After its creation, it was given to the Catholic Church along with another holy sword bearing the name [Excalibur] - the Excalibur Blessing.

In 20XX, when news of the other Excalibur swords were "stolen" by Kokabiel, it was temporarily lent to Xenovia Quarta to retrieve the three stolen holy swords from the Fallen Angel and his men. After being reincarnated into a Devil, Xenovia returned the sword to the Church, handing it to Shidou Irina who took the Excalibur Destruction along with other Excalibur fragments back to the Church with her.

When Xenovia's holy sword Durandal was given back to the Church to be repaired, the Excalibur Destruction, along with 5 other swords bearing the name [Excalibur], was taken back to the Heavenly Forges by the Angels to be reforged into true and powerful Enochian Holy Swords. For reasons unknown, the Seraph Raziel created copies of all the 6 [Excalibur] swords prior to their reforge and fused it with Durandal before sending it back to Xenovia, saying that it was a "gift" from the Angels.

After the Excalibur Destruction was reforged, it was given to Eleanor Richards, an exorcist of the Vatican who has shown to possess the suitable values and characteristics to wield the new Holy Sword.

## Appearance

The Excalibur Destruction appears as a Roman *gladius*, with an ornate hilt and a pommel resembling that of a blooming lotus flower. The guard is made out of pure gold, embedded with priceless blood-red gemstones, and is in the shape of a fearsome lion. The blade is around 50 cm long and is engraved with golden lines, which are in fact lines of Adamic hieroglyphs etched onto the blade.

Prior to its reforge, it appeared as a two-handed sword, and contains an axe-like guard and a second grip with a chain-like form connecting the guard with the blade, with the blade itself being huge and long that ends with 3 points.

The scabbard for Excalibur Destruction is made out of gold and blood-red leather, which resembles living flames when placed underneath sunlight. When unused, it can be transformed into a golden, two-headed eagle brooch.

## Trivia

* Despite not knowing about its reforge, Irina was able to notice the "Excalibur Destruction" imbued in Durandal was fake based on experience with her own Excalibur.
* Like other Enochian Holy Swords created by the Heavenly Forges, it contains a small amount of heavenly fire belonging to a member of the Heavenly Council.
	+ It, in particular, contains the heavenly fire of the Elder Seraph Kamael.
