The Royal Blade (王者の撃剣 Ouja no Gekiken, literally meaning "King's Fencing) supposedly is the heirloom of royalty. It is gold plated and has many decorative structures on it. It has a red circular thing holding the barrel and the hilt together. When looking at it vertically, the red circular thing and the cross before the sword blade makes out the symbol of the king (in chess). It has powerful backward-dash attacks, making it good for increasing distance between enemies.
