Bless Series

The Bless Series is a series of weapons unlocked in the Legendary or Vassal Weapons. This series exists in opposition to the Curse Series weapon.

Overview
The Bless Series is a powerful series of weapons only obtained by those who have overcome a terrible curse, such as the ones inflicted by the Curse Series weapons. So far, the only known member of the Bless Series is the Shield of Compassion which was unlocked by Naofumi. The number of Bless Series weapons has not been confirmed.

Shield of Compassion
The Shield of Compassion was unlocked by Naofumi after partially overcoming the curse from the Shield of Wrath. It is a very strong support-based shield which has all of the abilities of the shield of wrath but has several powerful support-based effects which can be overlaid onto other shields. It kept the Shield of Wrath suppressed except when it was intentionally released by Naofumi.

Naofumi Iwatani
Naofumi was inflicted with a curse by unlocking the Shield of Rage Curse Series weapons soon after being summoned. As a result, his emotions were suppressed and he lost the ability to properly empathize. However, during the fight against the Phoenix, one of his companions named Atla sacrificed herself to save him and their allies. As her last act, she was absorbed into the Legendary Shield and forcibly unlocked many shields, including the Shield of Compassion of the Bless Series. However, this was only a partial unlock since Naofumi was not able to fully overcome his wrath. Regardless, Naofumi's curse was lifted. However, the sudden release of his emotions was difficult to manage so it took a while for Naofumi to sort himself out.

For a while, Naofumi avoided using the Curse Series weapons altogether in fear of potential consequences. However, he was eventually goaded by the Demon Dragon to use both the Curse Series and Bless Series weapons simultaneously. While the Shield of Wrath provided an incredible power boost, the Shield of Compassion purified the curse effects. However, Naofumi still had to resist being swallowed by rage.
