Spoiler for Just read if you KNOW THIS or have READ NOVEL 19, if not DON'T READ.:

In the novels, when assassins were hired to kill Saito in Volume 16 he was shattered by one of the assassins. In Volume 19 it was revealed Derflinger is a 'spirit sword' made by the first Gandalfr, Sasha, using elven magic and was the same blade that pierced Brimir's heart and lead to his death. And the consciousness of the sword can hop between blades if necessary when the old vessel is destroyed. Currently Derflinger resides in one of Saito's katanas.
