Ancient Magic include:
Spirit Magic: The ability to interfere with souls. The more precise definition of spirit magic is magic that manipulates the incorporeal elements of sentient beings. In more concrete terms, it could be used to manipulate the heat, electricity, and other energy without matter that circulated within a person’s body. That also included things like memories, thoughts, and consciousness. With enough skill, a spirit magic user could take those incorporeal elements, duplicate them, and create a new soul out of them. In other words, create another person.
WN
LNRegeneration magic was ‘magic that interfere at time’. The use of regeneration magic was more of restoration rather than healing, it was just a portion of it. Originally it was possible to interfere with time itself using this magic, it could catch a glimpse of the past or take a peek at several branches of the procession of time. Shia’s characteristic magic of ‘Future Viewing’ was likely originated from this magic.
Restoration magic was magic that manipulated time. Which explained why in her message, Meiru had described it as magic that restores and not magic that heals. However, it could do more than just restore things to a previous state. Since it could interfere with time directly, it could be used to look into the past or potential futures based on set decision variables. Shea’s Future Sight was, in fact, just one application of restoration magic.
WN
Space-time is considered a form of boundary
LNSpace magic was a ‘magic that interferes at boundary’. Elimination of race-creature gap, formulating new boundary to create spirit world, it could be thought that those kinds of things were also possible.
Those dimension/spirit worlds are separate pocket realities that follow their own timeflow or the time of the universe in which they exist.Spatial magic was magic that manipulated boundaries. Meaning it could be used to create entire dimensions as well as manipulate the boundaries between fantasy and reality. A skilled master could turn reality into illusion and illusions into reality.
Space-time is considered a form of boundary
“That’s... amazing.” Shizuku’s eyes went wide as she looked down at the sword in her hands. But this was just the tip of the iceberg. Hajime continued his explanation, and the more Shizuku heard, the wider her eyes got.
Supposedly, thanks to the spatial magic it had been enchanted with, she could cut through space-time itself. Supposedly, thanks to the restoration magic it had been enchanted with, it could restore itself from any amount of damage.

Aura affecting space/space-time:

――Fall, to the interval of the worlds
The moment that sentence resounded, the space behind Shia twisted crazily.
「Wha-, this is-」
Shia immediately attempted to retreat from that place, but she was pulled in by a tremendous power and she stumbled midair.
When she looked across her shoulder, over there the twisted space and whirling darkness were……
「Don’t tell me, a gravitational field!?」
A power greatly resembling that which frequently used by the vampire princess she was so close it caught Shia and wouldn’t let go.
She desperately stood her ground using the foothold of the “Air Force”, but the twisted space and whirling darkness expanded in proportion of her effort. It was trying to envelop Shia in spherical shape. Ch 337
「──”Limit Break”」
The crimson magic power exploded. Forgot about the atmosphere, the very space itself felt like it would be blown to smithereens from the shockwave that detonated around Hajime and Shia. That phenomenon that looked like a red moon instantly scattered away the twisting space and gravitational field.
The crimson shock wave blew away all the dumbfounded people. They were tossed around like a cloth flapping inside a bomb blast. Arogan, Gruelle, and Louis laid out their barrier with amazing reaction speed in order to protect their respective comrades and lords who were relatively near, but they were blown away along with their barrier.
The use of the “Limit Break” was only for an instant. Be that as it may, everyone there felt it. Everyone comprehended it. Ch 338
Apostle aura:
They watched as a massive pillar of silver light rose up to the sky. It spiraled away into the heavens, and blew away the dust cloud surrounding her. The night sky blazed with its light.
“The ability to manipulate gravity... So that is your special,no, your ancient magic. I remember you. You escaped from me once before.” The sky quaked. The earth trembled. The very heavens cowered in the face of her might. The woman unleashed a wave of pressure so potent it was palpable. Oscar found he could hardly breathe. If his focused slipped even a little, the woman’s aura alone would knock him unconscious. Zero Vol 1 p304
and gravityNaiz smiled at them and lifted each of them up with one arm. A few hundred meters away, there was an explosion of silver light. Even after Naiz had ripped apart space around her, Hearst was still fine, it seemed.Still, he’d bought them a few precious seconds. Zero Vol 1 p323
The walls of Hearst’s gravity prison grew thin in places, making it possible to see inside.
Oscar saw that she had her eyes closed and seemed to be concentrating on something. What surprised him most was that she’d been able to maintain her form. Anything stuck inside Miledi’s Nether Burst was crushed.
Miledi started groaning.
It was taking all of her concentration just to keep the skill going. Hearst’s mana and Miledi’s warred inside the gravity prison. For the moment, they appeared evenly matched.
“Shit. The only thing I can think of is throwing this in there and—” Oscar twisted his umbrella’s handle. Before he could do any more though—
“O-Oh no!” There was a huge explosion, and Miledi’s Nether Burst was ripped apart.
A huge cloud of dust blossomed where Hearst had been standing. Oscar and Miledi were both sent flying. Zero Vol 1 p320
After Tio gained more mana from converting pain
And nullified Freid(Space magic user) Attacks"Graaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
With a roar that seemed to rip through the very fabric of reality, a massive dragon with scales black as the night flew out of the storm, clad in a nimbus of fire and lightning. It was long and serpentine, like an Oriental dragon instead of a more traditional Western one. In fact, it looked more like the Leviathan that Hajime and the others had fought earlier than any dragon on Tortus. However, it was twice as large as the Leviathan had been. Moreover, it was a thousand times more imposing. Vol 12 p268
When the reality of what had happened finally sank in, Freid screamed, “Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
He didn’t even care that his millions of monsters were being wiped out at an unbelievable rate. Instead, he beat his pure-white wings and rose high into the sky. In that moment, he was so enraged that he didn’t even care about Ehit’s orders or what his faith demanded of him. And so, he unleashed the strongest disintegration beam he could at Tio while firing off as many spatial blasts as possible, not even caring if the excess burden fried his brain.
“Fool,” Tio said, though there was no contempt in her voice. It sounded rather cold, but there was a hint of pity in it. She then let out a roar, dispersing all of Freid’s attacks. Vol 12 p271
After Shia got a boost from fusing two energies
Her rabbit ears went * PINN*. The vigor of her guts pose pierced the sky. Her raised up fist passed through the speed of sound very easily and caused an explosive sound to ring out loudly. The sky was also split from the after effect.
No, surely it was just a hallucination, no doubt about it. It only looked like there was a crack at the sky just for an instant.
This place was the “Miniature Garden”. Although the sky looked the same like the earth outside, there was a limit. There was a spatial wall up there but……it wasn’t so soft that it would be cracked just from someone making a guts pose──maybe. Ch 480
They use mana to increase the range of devices that contact or locate other realms(universes) separated from each others by a gap and have a different timeflow.
「Tsu, no, reaction?」
「……Hajime?」
The compass’s effective range was in proportion with the amount of magic power poured into it.
With the magic power he poured right now, just a mere distance from here to Akiba, no, even if it was anywhere in Japan the compass would be able to cover it. And yet, there was no reaction. Shia wasn’t within the search range.
Hajime leaped down from the bed and his magic power surged even more. As expected, there was no way the activation of magic power that tremendous would be unnoticed. Downstairs he could feel Tio was taken aback. The sound of her immediately going up the stairs in hurry could be heard. Ch 336
Although there was a time difference between realmsHajime also activated his communication device. It made a noise. He glanced aside and met the gazes of Yue and others. It looked like it was the same with them. Apparently the call was getting harder to connect.
He sent unlimited magic power to Yue and others through artifacts. That act was like boosting the signal’s strength if this was a normal telephone call.
The noise cut off. There was silent for a while before finally the call connected to the call receiver.
『This is Amanogawa. Is this Nagumo?』
「Yeah. There’s emergency.」
Hajime felt just a bit relieved that the call was connected safely. It looked like Yue and others had connected properly too. Ch 505
「First from me. Right now there isn’t any time difference with earth. According to my clone, it seems her connection to me was horribly disturbed temporarily, but it’s stabilizing right now.」
「The connection almost cut off the instant we entered the machine world huh. Aiko, it’s going to be a bit hard for you but, maintain your consciousness sharing with your clone for now.」
「Of course. Even though I would be able to notice quicker if I didn’t completely leave everything to the clone’s autonomy……I’m sorry.」
「No, you don’t need to feel sorry. After all you won’t be able to have fun with how hard it’ll be if you need to constantly direct half of your focus to earth even though we’re in the middle of a trip.」
Aiko’s shoulders dropped apologetically. Hajime patted her hair gently while running his gaze at the others.
Yue and others nodded and gave their report.
According to them, there was no abnormality with Tortus and the star spirit world. However, apparently there was a change with the fairy world and the desert world.
「……Hajime, the fairy world’s time also turned strange. But it’s the reverse. They said that not even a day has passed since Hajime called there a week ago.」
「Papa! The time also shortened at Ku-chan’s place nano! We talked the day before this trip’s departure but, she said that only around two hours has passed since then!」
「Just in case, I also did my own checking but it looks like there’s no mistake.」
It seemed during the call Remia also checked with Lilin who was beside Koone at that time. Ch 505
Elements(Light, Wind and Water):
「Then, perhaps it’s a god in savior-san’s world? There is a strong and pretty presence of wind around you.」
「Yep yep! You see, mister. The wind is connected anywhere in the world. Surely that god too marked you mister so they can sense you wherever you are.」
「You are connected to that god by wind after all! And they are also a god, so I think it will be easy for them to come!」
According to them, it wasn’t just limited to wind, apparently existences who possessed nature divinity of water or light were also relatively easy to summon although not as easy as the hero as long as there was some kind of connection formed even through the partition of the world. Especially divinity with strong connection with “World Tree’s Branch”.
Mirror and mist could be light and wind.「The gap of “hell” and “this world” is wavering. Just now, I said that they could not cross the gap of worlds without the “mirror gate” but……now is different. In this time when this gap is wavering, if there is a medium that can easily connect the interval, they will be able to descend to “this world” with a strong body maintaining their existence.」
For example, a mirror. A mirror that reflected another world, especially when there was an opposite mirror, the gap of worlds could be shaken just with that.
For example, a thick mist. A heavy mist that shut the field of vision where it was impossible to look even an inch ahead, it could also shake the spot of “this world” itself.
And then, water.
The world was connected by water. Water was a natural “gate” that crossed every world.
The connection between Ancient magic elemental magic:
She is talking about elemental magic being derivative from them“Umm, so Shizuku-chan. You know how all the magic we use is a degraded version of the magic they had in the age of the gods, right?”
“Yes. I studied up a little on this world. Ancient magic is the stuff that comes up in all the old histories, right? They were able to control the core elements that govern the laws of this world, while the elements we have are all derivatives... Wait. Is that how Nagumo-kun did it? He’s capable of using ancient magic that... can control people’s souls? And that’s how he kept your soul intact even though you’d died? And then after that he transferred it to a new body?” Vol 6 219
DK why they called it "fact of nature", but it could be equating them with elements."Anyway, what I meant about the general idea was that. Every ancient magic lets you manipulate some fundamental fact of nature, but until now, we didn’t realize which ones they all were. And in order to use concept magic, you have to understand the fundamental aspects of every ancient magic.” Vol 10 p215
Light and Time:
Healing/recovery, buff, barrier and sealing magic are derived from light element.Kaori had possessed the highest affinity for restoration magic, followed by Tio, and then Yue. Yue was so used to her own self-regeneration skill that she rarely used healing magic. For that reason, her affinity for it was much lower. She was able to heal herself without thinking, so actually having to actively cast recovery spells was hard for her.
On the other hand, Kaori’s job was Priest. Restoration and recovery magic were strongly linked, so her affinity for it had been the highest. She could use it more efficiently, and at greater range than either Yue or Tio. Though she unfortunately still needed magic circles and an incantation to cast, so Yue’s version was still more useful in combat. Vol 5 p283
An evidence to this connection is Fried dragon aurora breath sliwing Time magic after it was strengthened
Confirming that everyone had learned the same information regarding metamorphosis magic, Tio added, “It seems you can choose what special magic monsters you create with metamorphosis magic have as well. But that magic needs to be at least somewhat in line with the natural disposition of the creature the monster is originally based on.” Vol 10 p213
I’m not the only one who has received Lord Ehit’s blessing. Uranos has evolved beyond mortal limits as well. He’s become a god in his own right. Not only is his breath much stronger, but it also inhibits healing. Surely you’ve noticed your restoration magic isn’t working as well as it should?”
“Mmm, yes, I have.”
Tio had indeed tried to use restoration magic earlier, but she’d quickly noticed it was considerably less effective than it should have been. Had Kaori been here, she probably would have been able to overcome Uranos’s healing debuff with ease, but Tio didn’t have nearly as much aptitude for restoration magic as she did.
Freid grinned wickedly and continued, “Well, it doesn’t just stop your healing either. Your wounds will grow worse with time. They already hurt likea bitch, don’t they? But before long, your entire body will be wracked with so much pain that you’ll die.” Vol 12 p199
Manipulating the soul:
Dark magic and Soul magic“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
Though his mana should have been depleted, it flared up again as Kouki screamed, sending a spiral of pure-white energy rising toward the heavens. However—
“Kouki, stop! If you keep going, you’ll kill yourself!” Shizuku screamed.“Wait, he’ll do what?! Shizuku, what’s going on?! I thought you cut off his mana?!”
“I did! I sliced clean through his mana repository! He’s not absorbing the nearby ether to produce more mana!”
“Then how’s he getting more?!”
“By converting something else! I don’t know if he’s using up his life force or his soul or what, but he’s transforming it all into mana! It’s probably something he can do because he can use Limit Break! Either way, this isn’t good!”
“Goddammit, Kouki, come back to your senses already!”
Indeed, Kouki was creating this mana by burning away his own life. Abilities that overturned the natural laws of the universe always came with a steep cost...and they were practically never worth the price. Vol 12 p139
Dark magic generally influenced the target’s thoughts and perception. In combat, its main purpose was to debuff enemies. He took to it like a fish to water, and he quickly grew proficient at creating illusions to disorient foes, interfering with their ability to cast magic, and even making them hurt themselves in confusion.
In his depressed state of mind, Shimizu came to realize something about the magic he was practicing. If he mastered dark magic completely, could he not control another person’s mind? The thought brought him great excitement. If he was correct, he could manipulate anyone to do anything he wanted. Anything. That twisted thought took root in his mind. From that day, he devoted himself utterly to the study of dark magic. Vol 3 p259
“Well, you see, my Spirit Binding spell doesn’t just work on dead people. I can useit to control the thoughts and feelings of the living as well! It lets me enslave any soul I want.”
Shizuku and Ryutarou glared at Eri, who’d walked over to Kouki and lovingly ran a finger down the nape of his neck.
“The best part is, they don’t even realize they’re being controlled. By planting suggestions in their mind, I get them to unconsciously ignore the things I want them to ignore! Right now, the only person Kouki-kun believes is me! I’m his one and only heroine!”
“So that’s why you kept clinging to him the whole time...”
Shizuku muttered through clenched teeth.How did I fail to notice she was using Spirit Binding right in front of me?
The most terrifying part was that Eri had managed to create something akin to spirit magic all on her own, and then refined the spell to the point where the incantation didn’t even sound like an incantation. It showed the depth of her obsession with Kouki. Vol 11 p72
“Eri, don’t interfere with my senses again, or I’ll have you tried for treason.”
Not that he trusted a turncoat to begin with. Necromancer was a job that required a high level of proficiency in dark magic. In fact, necromancy was the most powerful dark magic spell. And since Eri could use that with ease, she of course had no trouble using other dark magic spells. She was the genius who’d created her own necromancy spell, Spirit Binding, so it was hardly surprising. The spell that allowed her to bind the souls of the deceased to her corpses and grant them a modicum of will was almost as powerful as ancient magic all on its own. Even Freid, general of the demon army and a master of ancient magic himself, hadn’t been able to sense her arrival, meaning he’d been completely taken in by the dark magic Eri had used to interfere with his senses. However, Eri waved off his threat and replied to him calmly. Vol 8 p333
Not sure about it, but Kousuke stealth and clones could possibly be derived from Dark magic
- Presence Manipulation:The user can manipulate the presence of their self by making their presence disappear.
- Presence Isolation: Allows user to completely erase their presence.
- Phantom Step: A skill which leaves behind a presence with an afterimage piled up on them self to blur their own figure.
- Dream Illusion III: A skill that produces up to three illusory clones of the user.
- Clarity Phantom: A skill that gives substance to the clone of the user.
- Minimum Mind: While the user is invisible this skill makes the user’s breathing, heartbeat, presence, and even the fluctuation of the mind, and so on, to be in a flat state.
- Shadow Dance: A skill that allows the user to run on walls. It can’t let the user stand still on a wall, but as long as the user has momentum, they can continue to run on walls.
- Water Dance: A skill that let the user walk over the water.
- Leave Dance: A skill that let the user use things like leaves that are falling in the air as instant footholds for jumping.
- Wood Splinter Dance: A skill which lets the user leap using dust
The impetus for the idea was of course a certain Abyssgate-san. His clone bodies were produced by his skill but, originally that skill could be categorized as soul magic.
By copying the information of one’s own soul and imprinting it into a body of magic power, it became possible to have another body that could move autonomically and share information. It was a magic with the highest level of difficulty.
「I thought that it would be possible somehow if it’s just creating one clone but……after all I can insert pseudo soul into plant to make it fight for me.」
「I guess there is a world of difference in difficulty level between simple combat action and a perfect copy of the user. In addition there was also the matter of time limit.」
「Yeah. To think that it’s that difficult to grant the clone the same level of autonomy like the original self……furthermore maintaining the magic also become more difficult the more advanced it is. Just what in the world is Endou-kun who is able to maintain several such clones all the time?」
「I’m also learning it once more after seeing Aiko’s hard work. Just how terrific the Abyss Lord is.」
Both could only put on bitter smiles on their faces.
In a glance, Kousuke looked like he was using clone bodies like it was nothing, but in actuality from the perspective of magic user, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call his skill in creating clones as godly.
Autonomy that wasn’t at all different from the main body, and equal combat ability. And right now he had even conquered the problem of durability.
On top of that was the aspect of “producing clones from clones in geometric progression”. Even Yue was made to say “It’s impossible for me. How is that possible?” to that. Ch 483
The 4D range of mist and water:
The portal was created using Space magic and the mist teleported them to a city outside space-time (the gap).“It’s strange... I can sense mana from everything around us, both the fog and the water.”
“Hajime-san, I think we’ll be okay! I’m not seeing any future where we die, at least!”
Hajime shot Yue a glance. Though he said nothing, it was a trivial task for her to read his thoughts, and she quickly created a teleportation portal to let everyone escape. But before she could send anyone through—
“Daddy! He’s calling for us! He wants us to save him!”
“Wh-What?”
Unfortunately, there wasn’t enough time to process that or ask Myu what she meant. Owooooooooooooooooooooo!The creature let out a howl. It wasn’t a threatening sound, though. In fact, it almost sounded melodic. A second later, Hajime and the others were surrounded by light, and their consciousness began to fade.
“Shi—” Yue shouted, panicking. The portal she’d created scattered to the four winds. SS Volume p215
Now, centuries or perhaps millennia later, the seal had been weakened to the point where it was nearly gone. If the lynchpin of the seal, the tower that the whale was fused with, broke, then the ancient evil horrors would regain their full strength and would start terrorizing people across all worlds and all times.
“Mister Whale’s been waiting this whole time for someone who can fix the seal to come! He said he needed really strong ‘Synergist-creators!’”
This abandoned capital didn’t actually exist anywhere within the real world. It had once stood where the sea they’d come from was, but the seal had transported it into a gap between dimensions. Basically, this whole space was a city-sized Treasure Trove.
And because the whale was also the product of that ancient civilization, it too possessed the power to transcendspace and time. However, its power had been greatly weakened, so it could only transport people here once, and only people who visited the particular stretch of sea the capital had once been on. Meaning this was the only chance anyone would ever have to repair this seal. Restoration magic wouldn’t be enough to do it because a lot of the damage to the seal was too old to be realistically recovered. It would take more mana than anyone in the world possessed. Which was why the whale had needed to bring in people who could analyze the seal and rebuild it from the ground up, namely Synergists who could use creation magic. Not only that, Synergists with more skill and mana than either Hajime or Oscar possessed individually.
“So it brought you and Oscar-oniisan together even though you’re from different times, Daddy! It made a miracle!”
Silence. Cold air caressed his skin.
He couldn’t see ahead of the torii corridor clearly. There was thin mist at the surrounding when he realized.
This situation clearly wasn’t normal.
One of the profoundly mysterious legends that could also be found in Fushimi Inari crossed the back of his mind.
The so called “spirited away”.
「……Even though, I only came here for school trip.」
Trickle. A drip of sadness fell down from the corner of Kousuke’s eye.
Kousuke-kun immediately went missing right from the first sightseeing destination. Ch 402
The gate use Space magic. It was unstable because that world and the destination(Earth) had a different timeflow.After he got left alone in the middle of torii corridor, he kept walking for half a day through the long corridor that was clearly far longer than in reality no matter how he looked at it.
The stone paving and red torii’s were extending endlessly without any change in scenery. It felt like he was not making any progress at all. The outside of the corridor was covered in mist, and even when he threw caution to the wind and tried charging daringly into the mist, he only ended up at his original spot.
He also tried using the Gate artifact, but although it activated, the light membrane had noises running through it or wavering, or dispersing from the edge. It looked dodgy and didn’t seem usable.
It made Kousuke feel like he was hallucinating the scrapping sound of his sanity level was getting whittled down after so long.
(I would be able to contact Emily at least if only my clone didn’t vanish though……)
Perhaps as to be only expected, his smartphone didn’t have any signal the whole time. His connection with the clone at Emily’s side was also severed.
(Few hours on that dimension=4 days on Earth) But the gate was still able to connect them. This dimension was creted using the planet energy.「Can you tell us what day it is?」
「The day today, is it?」
Her confusion deepened. The female staff looked like she wanted to question Hinata instead. But, perhaps because of her professional spirit, she at least answered her first.
According to her,
「Four days has passed as expected……since when I became Urashima Taro-san?」
Kousuke got into a stupor once more. This was too unexpected.
The eyes of the female staff were completely suspecting him as some kind of criminal.
Hinata was sprinkling her charms around to appeal that there wasn’t any problem at all here, none at all ma’am while dragging Kousuke to the corner of the lobby.
「Endou-sama. It seems the flow of time in that world and this world is different.」
「Yeah. My school trip is over.」Ch 405
