Gumillia's Glasses
Gumillia's Glasses were a magical tool created by Elluka Clockworker for her apprentice, Gumillia sometime during EC 499. Capable of widening one's vision through magical means, they were utilized by the former spirit when searching for the vessels of sin.

History
Sometime after her incarnation in EC 499, Gumillia complained to Elluka Clockworker that her vision had gotten worse. Explaining that she could see minute details far away but not those close to her, Elluka determined that her disorientation was a result of experiencing a human's field of vision, which was narrower than that of a chipmunk, which Gumillia had grown accustomed to. In response to her complaints, Elluka then conjured up a pair of glasses, warning her that wearing the glasses would force her vision to widen, thus causing her to feel dizziness.

The sorceress then added that Gumillia was only allowed to wear them when searching for vessels of sin, as glasses made beautiful women look unattractive, to which the green-haired disciple agreed. Six years later in EC 505, Gumillia began wearing them while serving as Beelzenia's court mage. Yukina Freesis then asked why she was wearing them, surprised due to the fact that she didn't wear them when they last met. Not wanting to tell the whole story, Gumillia instead told the young writer that it was because Elluka wasn't there.

Mechanics
A magic tool, Gumillia's glasses could magically enhance the wearer's sight, specifically widening their field of vision. However, the wearer could also experience feelings of dizziness and disorientation due to the glasses forcing their vision to widen.

Vessels of Sin


The Vessels of Sin are seven relics inhabited by a Demon of Sin. Passed from one individual to another over the course of history, they are responsible for many events in the history of Bolganio.

Early History
After Eve Moonlit's death in EC 014, her children, Hänsel and Gretel, split her Original Sin into seven fragments, creating vessels for each Demon using household objects. Afterwards, the Sins were scattered across the world. The following year, Held tasked Elluka Clockworker with collecting the vessels of sin.

Venomania Event
Eventually, the Demon of Lust, inhabiting a katana, was obtained by I.R. and subsequently given to Sateriasis Venomania in EC 136. Entering a contract with the Demon, the Asmodean Duke gained the power to charm women. Later that year, I.R. transferred the Demon of Sloth from its human host to the Clockworker's Doll. At some point, the Marlon Royal Family gained ownership of the Golden Key. Eventually, the key was given to Count Kachess Crim by his lover, Yufina Marlon. In EC 137, Kachess investigated into the disappearances and assassinated Sateriasis with the key in its dagger form. I.R. then reclaimed the sword before fleeing. Several years later, the Clockworker's Doll activated and forged a new persona, impersonating Mikulia.

Deciding to test if it still worked, the mage conspired by General Shalgham of the Asmodean military, who wanted to have Zenon, now known as Gast Venom, executed for being a descendant of Sateriasis Venomania. The two had Yvette, Shalgham's stepdaughter, pose as Sarah, Gast's deceased sister, and "visit" Gast in an ancient altar in the Misty Mountains in EC 477. With Shalgham pretending to have the altar destroyed, Gast demanded "Sarah" give him the Venom Sword, intending to kill Shalgham with it. However, the Abyss' plan failed when Yvette murdered her stepfather with the Golden Key. Although surprised the girl wielded the Vessel of Wrath, Abyss I.R. decided not to pursue her for the time being. She instead decided to confront Gast, once again knocking him unconscious and taking back the sword.

Beginnings of the Conspiracy
Two years later in EC 480, Abyss I.R. the Venom Sword Prim Marlon. Conspiring against her childhood friend Anne, the Marlon Queen then used the Venom Sword to seduce King Arth Lucifen d'Autriche of Lucifenia. Over the course of her stay, Prim entered an affair with Arth, eventually becoming pregnant with his child and giving birth toNey Marlon several years later. Eventually, Prim recruited Duke Sfarz into her conspiracy. With the help of the Duke's intelligence network, Abyss I.R. gained ownership of the Glass of Conchita as well as the Marlon Spoon, the Vessel of Greed. At some point, Abyss I.R. split the Vessel of Pride into four fragments, the Four Mirrors of Lucifenia. In EC 482, the sorceress gave the Clocwkorker's Doll to Prim. In EC 490, Abyss I.R. used the Glass of Conchita to conjure a strain of Gula to infect Arth, who was invading Beelzenia at the time.

A year later, Abyss I.R. set a trap of Riliane and Alexiel, Anne's twin children using one of the Mirrors of Lucifenia. Placing the mirror in a small black box, the mage then buried it in the sand along the Lucifenian coastline, where it was subsequently discovered by the twins. Transplanting the Demon of Gluttony into the hand mirror, Riliane was eventually possessed by the demon. Sometime afterwards, Prim's brother, Presi, exorcised the demon from Riliane, borrowing its power. However, his machinations were eventually discovered by Mariam Futapie and Elluka Clockworker, and the noble was killed in the ensuing struggle. Recovering the mirror, Elluka successfully sealed it.

Abyss I.R. then conjured another strain of Gula to infect Anne, who became bedridden as a result. In EC 494, Prim gave the Marlon Spoon to Mikina Freesis, Duke Sfarz's daughter. Accidentally using it to kill her father and burn her son Shaw's back, Mikina and her husband's business thrived thanks to the spoon's powers. Mikina was eventually forced to replace her father in Prim's conspiracy, funding it with the Freesis Firm's enormous assets.

Reign of Evil
In EC 499, Ney infiltrated the Lucifenian Royal Palace and transplanted the Demon of Pride to Riliane using one of the mirrors. Becoming the country's tyrannical ruler, the young princess was eventually despised by the people for her despicable reign. At some point, Yvette sealed the Golden Key in the Held Monastery. Abyss I.R. then gave Mikina the Venom Sword, who then passed it on to ther husband Keel. Kyle Marlon, Prim's son, then came in contact with the sword, resulting in his feelings for Michaela, one of the Freesis family's maids, becoming passionate. With Michaela being murdered during the Lucifenia-Elphegort War Kyle decided to avenge her death, assisting Germaine Avadonia, leader of the Lucifenian Resistance, in deposing the Daughter of Evil in what would be recorded as the Lucifenian Revolution.

Sometime after the revolution, Elluka and her disciple Gumillia collected one of the mirrors from the palace, as well as the Venom Sword from the burned remains of Keel's mansion. Sealing both vessels, the two eventually discovered both demons absent from them and returned to Lucifenia to investigate. With the Kingdom of Marlon having annexed Lucifenia, Abyss I.R. transplanted the Demon of Lust to one of the mirrors, while having Kyle possessed by the Demon of Pride. Ruling the territory with, the demon was eventually exorcised from Kyle by Gumillia, with the help of Germaine and Yukina Freesis.

War of 505
In EC 505, Ney was given the Glass of Conchita and tasked with capturing Retasan Fortress from Beelzenia. Due to being a reincarnation of Gretel, the former maid was able to utilize the Vessel of Gluttony, reanimating the fallen Beelzenian soldiers and using them to launch attacks on Retasan.

Later that year, Prim brought her last mirror as well as the Clockworker's Doll to Castle Hedgehog, feigning illness. Ney then followed her, summoning more undead soldiers to guard the castle. Travelling to Marlon, Kyle eventually confronted her mother, who was subsequently murdered by Ney in an attempt to get her attention. Entering a vicious frenzy, the Demon of Gluttony eventually granted Ney full power. However, Kyle was able to overpower and defeat his half-sister thanks to Chartette Langley's rocket glove. With Ney unconscious, Kyle recovered the vessels of sin from Castle Hedgehog. Storing them in the same room where Ney was tied up, Abyss I.R., possessing Mikina broke into the room, stole several of the vessels of sin, and killed Ney. As a result, Ney's soul was absorbed into the glass and was witnessed by Kyle in a dream.

Fleeing to Lucifenia, the sorceress traveled to the Held Monastery. There, she was confronted by Yukina, Germaine and Rin and was defeated. At some point, Clarith attempted to murder the former princess at the coastline with the Golden Key. With the Demon of Wrath masquerading as Michaela, Clarith entered a vicious rage before being stopped by the spirit of Allen Avadonia.

New Four Horsemen Incident
In EC 508, Abyss I.R. patched up her body and journeyed to Levianta. Meeting with Mikhail Asayev, the two conspired to overthrow the Levin Church using the Twin Swords of Levianta. Envying the other church leaders' positions, Mikhail was possessed by the Demon of Envy and formed Neo Apocalypse. The criminal organization then enacted terrorist attacks on the Church using the twin swords in what would later be known as the New Four Horsemen Incident. Abyss I.R. was eventually confronted by Germaine Avadonia and Riliane Mouchet, losing the twin swords to Chartette. At some point, the mage regained the Glass of Conchita from Elluka. Chartette eventually traveled to Jakoku and settled in Enbizaka, reforging the swords into two pairs of scissors, which she passed onto a warrior before being killed by Abyss I.R. in EC 549.

In EC 842, the missionary Elluka Clockworker reached out to Kayo, giving her a new life. Noticing that Kayo envied her pink-haired body, the sorceress agreed to swap bodies with Kayo, at the same time replacing one of Kayo's two pairs of scissors with a fake pair. However, Kayo was already possessed by the Demon of Envy, and hallucinated that a stranger was her deceased husband back from the dead.

Mechanics
Wielders of the vessels can utilize the demons' variety of individual powers, ranging from changing one's appearance to conjuring streams of fire. However, the vessels' owners also risked becoming possessed by the demon, causing them to commit their corresponding vice and influencing their personality and actions. Persons with great insecurities are also especially vulnerable to being possessed. Similarly, individuals with carefree personalities are immune to being possessed.

A person can also willingly enter a contract with a demon, thus gaining full access to the demon's powers. There are a variety of ways to establish a contract with a demon, such as impaling oneself with the vessel or drinking from it. While possessed, the demon can communicate telepathically with the host.

However, a demon's true essence remains in its vessel, and sealing traps it within its vessel, although seals can be easily removed. Sealing appears to be the only way to inhibit a demon's effects, as the vessels of sin are seemingly indestructible. If a demon's vessel is in multiple fragments, the demon can freely travel between the fragments and can only be trapped if all of the fragments are sealed. Conversely, other demons can be transplanted into vacant fragments by a skilled mage using an exorcism spell. Said spell allows the user to manipulate the demons to an extent, although the demons' intentions and motivations are difficult to understand.

Originally, the demons lacked purpose and only existed to spread malice and destruction, however they eventually gained motivations by possessing numerous people. Demons are also capable of "awakening", allowing them to take on human forms. According to the playwright Ma, collecting all seven of the vessels grants the owner a wish.

Conceptualization and Origin

 * The vessels are named after the Seven Deadly Sins, the cardinal sins taught in Christian ethics to help explain and elaborate upon human tendencies to commit vices that would lead to other sins.
 * Similarly, the Demons of Sin bear resemblance to the Seven Princes of Hell, powerful demons each aligned with a Deadly Sin who attempt to cause mortals to commit their sin.

Curiosities

 * According to mothy, one of the vessels of sin was once a magic tool before it was inhabited by a demon.
