Cuore di Leone

Cuore di Leone is a sword used by Erica Blandelli.

Summary
The magic sword used by Erica Blandelli. Forged with Wootz steel from Damascus, and sister sword of Liliana Kranjcar's Il Maestro, it appears in the first episode of the anime, being used to confront the incarnation of Verethragna. The second episode, she used it to demonstrate Godou Kusanagi's ability's. In the third episode, Erica combined it with the Golgatha spell and used it to attack Athena.

Cuore di Leone is usually in the form of a rapier, but it's true form is that of a two-handed longsword.

Cuore di Leone was originally the property of a knight known as Saint Raffaello, a title equivalent to Erica's Diavolo Rosso.

History
In the past, Cuore di Leone and II Maestro was forged for the sake of the two great knights who bore the titles of the Lion King and the King of the Fairies. Erica and Liliana discovered the two swords in the catacombs below Florence, and each one used one of them as her personal weapon.

Powers & Abilities
Cuore di Leone is one of the twin swords wielded by the legendary St. Raffaello; it has the [indestructibility] trait. In other words, Cuore di Leone will repair itself from any damage, and can be reconstructed limitlessly, allowing Erica to change its shape and function as she pleases. It has been shown that it is possible to change the sword into other forms and use it in conjunction with other spells to use magic that is currently beyond the ability of the user. Examples include Erica turning it into a chain and casting [Last Decree of the Senate] on it in vol.11 to create an almost invincible shield, and using the [Golgotha Spell Words] to emulate the [Holy Lance of Longinus] that was said to have wounded Jesus. Hence, by association, the Golgatha Spell Words enable Erica to hurt a God. The sword also have the power to amplify the wielders magic and power.

Cuore di Leone appears to have no other abilities (for now), but it is notable that in contrast to Ill Maestro, which has the added confusion effect when in its true form, Cuore di Leone appears to have no such abilities.
