Malurus

"Come closer...Come closer...Gold is calling."

- Malurus luring forth potential hosts Malurus (マルラス, Marurasu) is one of the Thirteen Calamities, sealed within the country of Seven. Unlike the other Calamities, however, Malurus isn't sealed within the country itself, but rather, is trapped within a prison of his own flesh, within an ancient temple after failing to destroy him for good. He is locked as a sort of ancient treasure, with access forbidden for anyone desiring the ancient "Ultimate Treasure" (究極宝, Kyūkyoku Takara), believed to make even the poorest man richer than a king.

It now resides, trying to lure a potential victim so it may take form once more, and be free once more as the Golden Demon God (金魔神, Kinmajin), but so far, has waited 400 years without any progress.

Trivia

 * Malurus' name is a combination of "Malum", latin for "Evil", and the english word "Virus".
