Lightning Devil Slayer Magic (雷の滅悪魔法, Kaminari no Metsuaku Mahō) is a form of Caster and Lost Magic, and a type of Devil Slayer Magic that allows its practitioners to harness and manipulate the lightning element with the main purpose of slaying the Demon kind.

Lightning Devil Slayers are often called as Fulgur Bringers ( 雷霆の悪魔祓い魔導士 ( フルガー・ブリンガーズ ) , Furugā Buringāzu lit. Thunder Exorcist Mages).

Description

Overview

Lightning Devil Slayer Magic allows its users to use a specific element to slay Demons; in case of this particular type, the Mage can create, generate and manipulate the lightning element for various purposes, primarily for combat ones. The element of a Devil Slayer has a slightly different composition and properties, giving an array of different perks to the user. It looks like the Devil Slayers have the innate ability to “resonate”, thus manipulate the souls and the smallest particles within the matter of their element. Such unusual properties make the demonic element highly versatile and capable, however, it places a higher strain and exhaust on the user, comparing to other Slayer Magic. Due to this, the Devil Slayers develop very strong bodies with vast stamina, everything that was built up with the help of rigorous and extensive training just to allow the practitioner to use their Magic properly.

The sheer power of this Magic is larger comparing to other Slayer Magic, and with enough experience, the user can create thunderstorms and rains made out of lightning just by releasing their Magical Aura, affecting the surrounding weather as a result. A general theme with all Devil Slayers, the user’s presence can be noticed immediately even when they release the smallest amount of their respective Magic. In the case of Lightning Devil Slayers, it feels like the surroundings where a Mage appears, become electrified, and the same goes for the user’s aura.

Changed Physiology

Lightning Devil Slayers have changed physiology, the one that suits their demonic nature. As with other known types of Slayer Magic, this Magic grants the user with the ability to consume their respective element as an outside source; anything electric-based or lightning-based helps users to replenish strength and become immune to its effects, for instance, the paralyzing effect. At the same time, the immunity is a terrifying one, because if there is any chance that the user will be struck by their Magic, they will sustain low damage from it, even though they cannot eat the lightning created from their body. The last part of the consuming process is that the element itself should be consumed through mouth. In the case of Lightning Devil Slayers, it is also possible to absorb their element through the body and the skin, however, doing it such way replenishes the Mage’s parameters on a much lower scale.

Not only that, but the user can somewhat control the lightning used by other mages, as well as completely engulf a large scape of landing with lightning bolts from the sky with simple hand gestures. The elemental potential of the Slayer is enormous; even when the user is a novice and just accommodating to his new-found powers, they can discharge electricity strong enough to create rumbling sounds in the sky with the casting of dark thunder clouds.

Lightning Devil Slayers, like any other Devil Slayer, have altered bodily composition, as well as the enhanced one. First of all, they have the innate ability to analyze demons’ bodies with their sight; in case of this magic, the user can utilize two levels of their enhanced sight. The first one is a simple analysis of the Demon’s body that allows seeing the Magic Disease Particles as well as the demon’s weak spots around the body. The second level is when the Mage further enhances their eye perception, something that allows predicting any object’s movement around the user. At the same time, the second level of so-called Slayer Eyes can give strains on the eyes, making the user weaker, more tired, etc. Secondly, the body of the Devil Slayer is also immune to the Magic Disease Particles as Devil Slayers are partially demonized and masters of the magic can even take up the Demon Form as well. Thirdly, the Devil Slayers are immune to external and/or forced demonification, because their body already has modified, Demon Genes.

Devil Slayer Magic is a very fickle one. If the user learns their magic quite fast for the body to keep up, like using spells of high caliber or utilizing the demonic properties without the trained body, the Magic will influence the Mage via demonization process. In general, this process starts when the user’s body becomes afflicted with black markings that spread across the entire body, and can influence parts of the body like hair or eyes (in color), etc. For the first time, this process is uncontrollable; however, the Mage can learn how to summon the markings at will and using them to improve their performance. It has been specifically mentioned that the Devil Slayers’ souls are influenced by their magic, becoming “tainted”. This is the second stage of the demonization processing, something that leads the Mages to lose their sanity with time and make irrational decisions. The third stage is when the user completely becomes corrupted by their Magic and do not control their consciousness anymore.

Last, but not least, one of the basic and at the same time the most powerful functions is that Devil Slayers can kill or exorcise demonic power by exerting their Magic Power upon the target, in other words, using the "demon" side of their Magic, given it is the true purpose of the Magic; due to this function, Devil Slayers are called exorcists.

Element Traits

The lightning element incorporated in this Magic differs from the standard lightning or electricity. The lightning potency allows achieving an array of different perks, like object vaporizing, paralysis, burning, etc. The electrocuting power of demonic lightning is considered to be the highest out of three standards Slayer Magic: Dragon, God, and Devil Slayers. The user can create, manipulate their element in any way they want, and even more, they can enhance their performance with the help of naturally occurring lightning. The last detail of the elemental difference is that the Devil Slayers can access non-standard traits of their element like vibrations and sound creation easier than their Slayer counterparts, thus, showing the absolute dominance over their respective element.

For instance, some Lightning Devil Slayers managed to enhance their element to the point of being capable of cutting through solid materials like metal, rocks, etc.

Lightning Devil Slayer Magic can be used in conjunction with other lightning-related Magic, for instance, Thunder-Make or simple Lightning Magic, something that allows for delivering even more damage in battle than before. It is considered that the users of Violet Spark can receive a tremendous boost in their performance when their respective Magic is used in pair with its Devil Slayer equivalent.

Class Distribution

Devil Slayer Magic is one of a few, if not the only one, that has its own power measurement system between its users. Currently, there are only two categories of Devil Slayer Magic users: the first category is Demon Hunters ( 鬼力使い ( デーモン・ハンターズ ) , Dēmon Hantāzu lit. Demon Power Users), the second is Devil Slayers ( 滅悪魔導士 ( デビル・スレイヤーズ ) , Debiru Sureiyāzu lit. Evil-Destroying Mages). In present time at least four differences between Demon Hunter and Devil Slayer are known.

Spell Pattern : Demon Hunters name their spells with a prefix of Elemental Demon without a possessive case, for example, Lightning Demon: Roar (雷鬼・咆哮, Ikazuchioni: Gekiko ); Devil Slayers use "Elemental Devil's" pattern for their spells instead: Lightning Devil's (雷魔の, Raima no ). This small detail shows that Devil Slayers are superior to Demon Hunters; while the latter hunt demons and somewhat replicate their power, the former slay the demonkind, i.e. destroy the evil in one of its forms.

Element Coloration : merely all Devil Slayers have a violet or purple coloration of their respective element. On the other hand, Demon Hunters use elements with a natural coloration, the same witnessed in nature. In the case of Lightning Devil Slayer Magic, Demon Hunters utilize lightning with different, considered as standard, coloration like white (白雷, Byakurai ), yellow (黄雷, Kirai ), or even green (碧靂, Hekireki ). Devil Slayers use the so-called Purple Lightning (紫電, Shiden ).

Power Difference: the power scale of the two classes is different, with Demon Hunters being weaker than Devil Slayers. Demon Hunter in question doesn't possess that array of abilities that Devil Slayer can achieve or already uses, as they cannot access Demon Form or use Devil Force. Demon Hunters have their own variations of power-ups instead. They can use Fiend Power ( 真鬼強化 ( フィエン・ドパワー ) , Fiendo Pawā lit. True Demon Power Release), a form of booster similar to the Drive form of Dragon Slayers from A to Z. Demonic Power enhances users' capabilities to an extent, though it's not powerful enough to be a match for Devil Force. It is generally known that Fiend Power enhances, or rather releases the current full potential of a particular Demon Hunter, making them stronger in five times at least. It is also considered that simultaneous usage of Fiend Power and Devil Side grants the exactly same power release as with sole use of Devil Force.





Subspecies Abilities

Devil Side

The above-mentioned description of tainting side effects are signs of a phenomenon called “Devil Side”. This phenomenon characterized by the birth of inner demons inside Mage’s mind and sub-consciousness. This is the dark side of the user, the demonic part that initially is dormant, however, becomes stronger with each time the Devil Slayer Magic is being used. Sometimes this results in the inner demon-possession of the body, which destroys the Mage identity and allows the demon to live. When the user relives the Devil Side awakening, they can enter their sub-consciousness and face their demons. To unlock the Demon Form, the one needs to subjugate their demonic self. They can either fight with it or try to a more peaceful way to “defeat” the Devil Side. In most cases, the first option is chosen, and the Mage rushes in a harsh battle. If the Mage is victorious, a feat that cannot be reached that easily, they receive a bigger boost in their powers due to the new-found ability to take on the Demon Form. If the user lost their battle, the inner demon will be the dominant side, thus taking over the body, and then the mind of the user, eventually destroying their identity. If the user finds a harmonious way to live with the inner demon, the result is the same – the access to the Demon Form.

The Demon Form, usually, is the perk available only for highly-experienced exorcist mages, the best from the ace league. They can enter this form at will, though Demon Form is something unorthodox within the Slayer Magic, as this is an ability born out of the recently discovered side effect that happened with some users when they only began their path as Exorcist Mages. The demon Form has two manifestations. The first stage is the complete control of the demon markings that grants a boost in performance, similar to that of Dragon Slayers in Drive state. At the same time, the user receives a resistance to the Curse effects, though to a limited degree. The Magic Power of the user also becomes changed, as with activated markings, the user has a dual magical power of both mage and demon, something that allows reaching power levels far surpassing that of either regular Mage or a demon. Once the markings are activated, the released Magical Power represents the fusion between the human and the demon. The accumulation of both powers greatly augments the individual powers, drastically increasing the overall fighting performance.

The second stage is when the markings not simply covering the body, but changes the entire color scheme: the skin becomes much darker, the hair can become longer with another color, and some individual can receive much sharper fangs or claws or in the rarest cases – additional appendages like tail, wings, horns, etc. The second stage is the manifestation of the Devil Side in the real world, the representation of the Mage’s darkness that lies within them. This form is essentially the same as the Etherious Form of notorious demons from Books of the Black Wizard: the user changes their appearance, greatly augments capabilities and gains access to an amplified array of their already available abilities. In some cases, this allows reaching the real potential outside of the Devil Force.

It is considered that simultaneous usage of Fiend Power and Devil Side grants the same power release as with sole use of Devil Force.

Kenshin Suzuki's Spells

Kenshin Suzuki's Spells Name Description Appearance Lightning Demon's Roar (雷鬼の咆哮 Raioni no Hōkō) Kenshin generates lightning in his mouth and releases it in a concentrated, destructive blast, capable of destroying everything in a wide area in front of him. Unlike most other slayer he can create the lightning from his mouth and gather it in the form of a sphere instead of releasing it as a blast. He can then carry the lightning ball in his hands and fire the blast from his hands before the lightning dissipates. The special effect of this attack is that, even if the target survive, the lightning paralyzes them, preventing them from escaping subsequent attacks. Lightning Demon's Sting (雷鬼の剣 Raioni no Ken) Kenshin generates lightning around his extended hand and concentrates it to such high levels that the lightning itself acts like a highly sharp blade, capable of cutting through almost anything. He can use this move to stab person or even use it to block blades, using it like a katana or a kunai. Even if his opponent is not badly injured by this attack, he or she will be stung by the lightning which will at the very least numb the attacked region and could even paralyze the target. Lightning Demon's Speed (雷鬼の速 Raioni no Haya) A spell that could be seen as a specialized application of Lightning Body, this involves Kenshin momentarily turning his entire body into pure lightning and traversing short distances at speeds only possible for a lightning demon. Though slower than actual teleportation, Kenshin sees this move as the next best thing. His most favored way of using this spell is to initiate a physical attack at a distance from his target and then using this spell to suddenly appear next to his target to have the attack land on his target. Lightning Demon's Spear (雷鬼の槍 Raioni no Yari) Kenshin gathers lightning in his hand and creates a high concentration of electricity which he then releases in the form of an lightning spear extending from his hand. By concentrating the electricity into a spear like shape, Kenshin ensures that the charge does not dissipate out too much as that would reduce the attack's potency. It also means that the concentrated charge is strong enough to heat the air surround the edges to high enough temperatures to create a very thin layer of plasma which can cut objects on contact. Thus the entire length of the spear acts like a blade. This attack maintains a sustained flow of lightning which is maintained in the shape of a spear for as long as Kenshin continues the spell.

Power-Up Boosters

Devil Force ( 悪魔の力・人間の呪法 ( デビル・フォース ) , Debiru Fōsu lit. The Power of Demon Kind: Human Curse ): Devil Force is the final stage of the Demon Slayer Magic, the embodiment of the ultimate power which Demon Slayers may possess, though the exact conditions to invoke it vary from person to person. When entering the said form, the user’s body fully transforms into the element the Demon Slayer has in their possession, through saturating the insides of their body and the outsides with an overdose of Magical Barrier Particles. Such form change grants them the enhancement of their physical traits, like strength and speed, and demonic abilities they have, improving their combat capability significantly. Demon Force greatly increases the damage done by standard Demon Slayer Magic attacks, and grants the user access to more advanced, powerful attacks. It also drastically enhances the user's physical prowess, making them far stronger, more resistant and faster, and boosts their demonic power, prompting it to violently become visible, taking on the shape of a demonic visage; when used at the fullest, the generated silhouette seems to gain corporeality, likely as a result of the immense amount of demonic power employed. As the Demon Slayer's entire body turns into their element, after activating Demon Force they are virtually immune to physical harm. They can allow any attack to simply pass through them or simply absorb the attack; it is essentially a boost in the demonic properties that Demon Slayer Magic provides to the user. Kenshin's Devil Force : when pushed to the brink of death by Scarlet during a particularly gruesome training session, Kenshin was able to achieve Devil Force. This Magic is said to be the final and most powerful state a Devil Slayer can attain in which the user's body turns into that of a demon. Kenshin's Magic Aura becomes visible and his powers increase tremendously, receiving a large boost in terms of strength, endurance, resistance, and power. In this state, his entire body turns into lightning, so after activating Devil Force he is virtually immune to physical harm. He can allow any attack to simply pass through him or simply absorb the attack. His hair grows in length and random bursts of lightning start forming in the air all around him. His fingers lengthen slightly and his fingernails grow till his hands resemble claws. The only time he achieved this state was accompanied by one of his manic episodes and his personality became exceedingly violent and lecherous. As an example of his further boost in strength, even his lightning was changed to the level of becoming a black one. Black Lightning (黒雷, Kokumikazuchi ): Kenshin was able to create unique black-colored lightning that was much more potent than his normal lightning. Kenshin has stated that his black lightning is like lightning from hell, much more destructive than anything else seen on Earth, capable of overpowering normal lightning. Kenshin has admitted that using Black Lightning leaves him exceedingly tired and he does not fully recover from its usage for days. While it can theoretically possible for Kenshin to be able to perform all his Lightning-based spells with Black Lightning, such is its destructive power that he has been unable to perform any but one of his original Lightning-based spells, barring one. It is assumed that this is not due to this form of lightning's incompatibility with those spells, rather it is a result of the potency of the Black Lightning and Kenshin's inexperience with its usage.
