How to get Alucard's Sword and Shield
Quick answer
Alucard's Sword and Shield wait in Alucard's sealed chambers at the top of a hidden tower in the Main Hall. Enter through the Alucard portrait in the Entrance Corridor, climb past the upward-pointing Alucard portrait, put out all five blue flames, then return to the top of the tower to open his room.

Reveal solution / story details
Both walkthroughs describe attacks that move Rose toward enemies as she strikes, and a shield that blocks hits from the front. The pickup card in the launch-build clip below lists the pair as Legendary with 100 ATK, which matches one walkthrough; some guides list 33, so check the number on your own equipment screen.
- With all five flames out, climb back to the shrine at the top of the tower and interact with it to open the way up.
