Jiretto Ekuseru (ジレットエクセル) is a third generation Dragon Slayer and the current Guild Master of the Dark Guild, Embargo. He is the biological son of Avueda Ekuseru and Gutchi Ekuseru, the student of Dawn Sire and the adopted "child" of the dragon, Sukaru (スカルプ, Sukaru), from whom he learned to utilize Frost Dragon Slayer Magic. Though initially meant to bathe in the many luxuries that come about with the delicacy of nobility, tragic events would soon transpire and rid the man of any such possibilities, leading him astray and furthering his descent into the depths of the darkness.

In reality, however, Jiretto is an undercover agent serving the Magic Council diligently. His true intentions are unknown to all but the upperclassmen of the Ten Wizard Saints, in particular, those select few comprising the first half of the order. Jiretto was entrusted with incredibly secretive operations in order to gain proximity within the Balam Alliance and other Dark Guilds. Through his many investigations, Jiretto has gained infamy as a notorious super-villain and is hated by the world at large due to misconceptions. The knowledge he has come to possess from these underground operations has made him a threat to the world, all the more reason that many organizations desire nothing but his demise.

Once a member of arguably the most powerful guild in Fiore, Hydra Head, Jiretto gained recognition for his use of Dragon Slayer Magic and became reputed as the Blizzard Wizard (吹雪鬼才, Fubukisen). However, he would ultimately defect from the guild following direct orders from the Magic Council and forever be branded a traitor as a result of an unexcused absence during an important mission. In truth, the man had been left with no choice, having been taken by the order almost by force. He never got around to explaining the purpose behind his departure to his former guild mates, and his sudden notoriety as a vile dark lord has only severed these relations all the more.

He is currently in the process of discerning various Dark Guilds, secretively passing along information back to the Magic Council in regards to their whereabouts. Jiretto himself has established a Dark Guild of his own to make his alias all the more convincing; this was done in part to more thoroughly gain the trust of other dark mages. Due to the nature of his assignments, Jiretto is considered an enemy by even the most tolerant sorcerers across the globe and as such, is constantly on the run, moving from one place to another.

Appearance
A wizard is not classified through his physical appearance as much as he is through his actions. However, those inhabiting the world have taken to an array of unique customs in the effort of creating some form of differentiation; amongst the powerhouses of the world and the prodigy alike, each being seeks to become an individual, instead of being lost in the crowd. There is nothing unique about following trends, furthermore, it more often leads to the alteration of public opinion; when one is seen sporting the usual attire of their nation, they are mistaken for the average bystander. However, it is this aspect that Jiretto so desperately cherishes; by all means, he is scouted as a force to be reckoned with, and his appearance, at least in his opinion, should provide a clear estimate of that principle.

Jiretto's appearance is reminiscent of a man in his middle ages. He possesses light blue hair, which is usually styled in a manner in which the front portion is spiked up, with the back half blatantly combed down as smooth as butter. He has large bulging eyes with golden colored pupils. There are two noticeable scars running through his right eye; how he received these is currently unknown. His personality is further emphasized by his generally lazy expression, aloof manner, relaxed voice, and minimalist attitude. In serious situations, such as his many operations under the Magic Council, however, he is shown to have a very stern and intense look. He is normally seen adorned in a fashionable onyx black gi complete with a sash around his waist. At times, an additional silk vanilla robe is kept over his figure, keeping his body warm, and somewhat defeating the purpose and otherwise contradicting his icic theme if one were to perceive it in its ultimate and most refined form. While most ice mages prefer to cloak themselves within additional layers of clothing, more often than not, Jiretto would prefer to be let loose, showcasing as much flesh as he possibly can while retaining his own male characteristics. This is, of course, to express his resistance and immunity to the cold, whilst second handing a bit of humor, not unlike that of the students of Ur.

By all means, Jiretto's existence is one of misfortune, one of eternal chaos. In order to gain access to other dark guilds —as he is a secret agent serving the Magic Council diligently in truth— Jiretto needed to present himself in a peculiar manner, one that would have established his physical appearance reminiscent of that of a vile dark lord. This was quite manageable, to say the least, as the man had already received a couple of grueling scars running through his right eye, obtained from battling with a real dragon: his very own father, Sukaru. The scars have forever embedded his legacy into the rich history of all dragon slayers alike and are evidence of his past. They also quite eccentrically serve as a reminder of his ties with his now deceased foster parent, who had taken him in as his own and raised him to strive for success in more ways than one. Surviving in harsh conditions altogether, and plagued with horrific matters ever since he was but a mere child, Jiretto has come to embody the truth of a sinister man.

As cold as his magical prowess, Jiretto portrays a man who cannot be easily confronted, especially not by the lower-class of minors. In fact, more often than not, children wet themselves immediately upon witnessing the man's gruesome stature coupled with his rather grave demeanor; it is almost as if he has not learned to smile at anytime in his past, serving off experience alone, no matter how many additional muscles it may take to retain its composure. His golden eyes are believed to represent disasters in their climax, wrecking havoc upon all those who lay their sights upon them. It is not without caution that these serve to torment the opposition; while others claim to be lost in the eyes of a well groomed man, the same cannot be said for Jiretto, in fact, in his case, it is quite the opposite. The man's fierce gaze is matched by very few, if at all, retaining the theme of his ice cold personality. It is almost as though he is peering down the souls of his many victims with his heralded eyes of the dragon, which essentially appear as though they would have otherwise belonged within the sockets of a colossal beast either which way.

Personality
"You can continue to get better through failures; learn from your mistakes, make adjustments. If you're dead, you can't take anything from it."

- Jiretto to Tsuki Uintā in "Ice to Meet You"

Many who truly who him would agree that Jiretto is as "chill" as his ice is made out to be. He is more than often seen with a calm demeanor, almost as if he was completely free of any form of stress. An elaboration of this aspect would be the man's peculiar interest in meditating in polar regions; while some would be quick as to place a "loner" label on the man's hobbies, the time alone is greatly appreciated and allows him to further hone his own powers and more think of his torn past. As such, Jiretto is incredibly strong willed --having utilized the time alone to sort issues in his mind-- and does not give into the temptations of frustration nearly as easily as others of his kin, despite the dragons themselves being known as the embodiment of chaos. In fact, Jiretto is a polar opposite in comparison to the rest of his kind; while most dragon slayers would be overly confident in their abilities --and with good reason, seeing as though they behold the supposed power to slay a dragon-- Jiretto instead welcomes the challenge of growing stronger, seeing no limit to the amount of strength any one individual can possess. It is this very humble attitude that keeps the man's ambitions intact and allows for him to proceed into the future despite being resented for misconceptions he himself has no control over. Were it not for his exceptional self motivated persona, he would have more than likely lost himself forever into the darkness, as while even he may appreciate the time he gets to himself, no such being can withstand complete solitude.

Jiretto is perceived to be the embodiment of darkness in more ways than one. His very existence in itself is a sin, almost as if for some grueling purpose beyond the application of logic he exists solely to wreak havoc upon the fortunes of others. He endeavors most of all to torment the souls of those who appear to be going ways and of the sort, especially those of which are classified by any form of success; as a bearer of resentment from his days as a mortal, Jiretto cannot withstand the patronizing anger that comes about with witnessing others claim what he so desperately fought to acquire his whole life: happiness. For, he was a troubled man to say the least during his reign in the earth lands and was disrespected for his efforts more than anything. This led him to believe that there was no such thing as happiness; the mere thought of it soon became an illusion, and with each passing second of the day, it drifted farther and farther from his grasp. Suffering this way took a hold of him mentally, and he was unable to recover. In the aftermath, a true devil was born, one that sought to share its miseries with all of those select peasants who had not yet received his wrath at any given instance.

Mischievous; wicked by nature, the man's tongue is believed to be that of a serpent's, indicating a grueling interest in the art of repulsive eloquence. The man has essentially established himself a career through the act of penetrating the minds of others; from his birth he fondled the feelings of what should have been his comrades and truly hypnotized them into believing he was on their side, and that he cared deeply for their well being. However, in actuality, he laughed behind their backs and utilized each passing second of his existence into plotting against them, savoring the moments leading up to their demise. Jiretto is a monster who plays with his food, provoking his prey into absolute madness before devouring them to fulfill his own selfish desires. There is no real reason for such a purpose beyond his own personal satisfaction, as Jiretto could have very well simply taken their lives in the very instance he first met them; despite his already surging plethora of power, he instead finds pleasure in the fall of others, which can also be seen as his greatest weakness, as he believes a war between two sides should last as long as possible --granting him enough time to torture his enemy.

His reputation as a vile dark lord is what ultimately defines his legacy as a wizard, pitting him atop the ladder of even the most horrific specimens to ever plague the universe. Jiretto has never known how to forgive, and if he had, it has long since been forgotten; in the current era, he is a man who takes the lives of others without so much as a hint of hesitation, showing no mercy. His cries of war are often times met by the anguish and cries of remorse of his prey, much to his liking; in fact, it is this very element that arouses the man to no end, his equivalence to any sort of euphoric projection. It would most certainly be out of line to question the faith of such a man, for he had indulged himself in hatred, and is now nothing more than a walking sin, however black it may appear. He is in the process of redefining himself as a god of the sorts, so that his reign of terror can spread throughout the entirety of the world, and beyond the borders of life. His goal resides solely within the darkness, and he will stop at nothing to accomplish this farcical assignment of his.

Jiretto is also imagined to be a very arrogant man who believes himself to be the very best; he not only considers himself to be on par with some of the more miraculous entities in the world, but even greater, fueling his belief that there is no greater entity in all of the world. This in itself is a contradiction to his own objective, as if he truly was as powerful as he believed, he would most certainly not have to acquire even more power, nor would his goal of godhood be so distant, for that matter. Nonetheless, the man looks down upon all other beings, most nearly due to his refined lineage. For this very reason, he refers to all others as being inferior to himself and speaks highly of himself, and his only compliments to the other party come in the form of praising himself by referencing direct comparisons to his own strength. During a confrontation especially, Jiretto will take to ridiculing his opponent through verbal harassment, or so many have claimed.

For a man whose goals supposedly reside solely within the darkness, it would be apparent that navigation would not at all be his strong suit; however, this is nothing more than a foolish assumption. Jiretto's eyes were sealed long ago upon experiencing the most horrific events of his entire life --in which he cried dark red tears of blood, thereby staining his retina for the rest of eternity-- and he now cannot see anything but darkness. In his time spent as a hollow, he survived by relying on nothing more than his swordsmanship and natural senses, and this grueling game of life --which presented a challenge day after day-- only served to further his descent into the shadows, leading him down the path of terror that no other being would ever dare trespass. Jiretto himself claims to have tainted his soul into that of an evil spirit; he is now nothing more than a demon lost in a pitch black hell. Jiretto is a lost cause who was unfortunately never met by a savior; he is a man etched in complete iniquity.

In reality, however, Jiretto is a soft spoken man despite his gruesome stature and otherwise intimidating physical appearance. This asset stems directly from his respect for all living beings in that they are gifted with the same freedom he was. However, with that in mind, it should be noted that the same sort of respect is offered everyone, no matter their social status. Be it a king, or a homeless man living on the streets, Jiretto will offer the same kind attitude and in turn offer the very same amount of effort to please him. At the same time, this is one of Jiretto's more cunning attributes that more than often leads him into some sort of trouble. Because he values nobility as the very same as someone experiencing poverty, he will stand up for the poor in a robin hood-esque manner and demand that they be treated as equally as any other being. During his days within the guild Hydra Head, Jiretto was known to please his nakama in anyway possible and fight for a lower ranked member just as he would for the guild masters. Such is the charisma of man who is believed to be the very embodiment of disaster.

Above all else is Jiretto's poise in the heat of battle. Despite being a war veteran --having seen the spills of battle an endless amount of times-- Jiretto approaches each individual battle with the same level of intensity. While normally calm, when met with an accomplished foe, he begins to lose himself slowly, until he is completely submerged within competition; competition is what Jiretto essentially strives for, competing on a high level day in and day out against the very best competition in the entire world. Only upon emerging victorious can this man fulfill his lust for battle and be satisfied with his very existence. More times than not, Jiretto will not taken it easy upon his opponent no matter the reasoning; be it a feeble woman or a gruesome beast. All are the same before a man who abides to lawful equality and thus, the same effort is placed towards each single matter; however, it is not without honor in that Jiretto will not unleash the true limitations of his true power against just anybody. While the virtue of wisdom is present at all times, only when met by a truly worthy opponent will Jiretto reveal the true nature of his strength in entirety; in such moments, his adrenaline practically bursts through from his body and only allows the man to become all the more hyped.

A result of his underground operations, the world at large has a vile image of Jiretto; one that describes him as the most lethal weapon in creation who spends his many days doing nothing short of wreaking havoc. The man is believed to be the very embodiment of evil; his laid black persona has been mistaken for arrogance, in that he offers no living being anything along the lines of mercy. Many have made him out to possess a heart as cold as his ice itself —one that cares for no one in the world, other than himself, of course. His secret missions —taking him from one dark guild to the next to conduct investigations— have been misinterpreted by those who are ignorant to the true intention of the Magic Council. Due to this nature, Jiretto is believed to be affiliated with several dark guilds, leading him to become one of the most wanted men in all of Earth Land.

History
It was speculated among some of the elders of Perianth, all of which were held as fine wizards in their respective primes, that once every few generations, a child, foreseen with immense magical ability, would appear in a dire time of need to act as the savior. His legacy established since the shed of his very first tear, it would be he who would go on to become the Child of the Prophecy (予言の子, Yogen no Ko) and revolutionize the world; lead them into a new era comprised of peace and the utmost tolerance for love. At the time of Jiretto's birth, many had gathered around the bed of Avueda Ekuseru: various scholars who possessed high degrees in the arts of magic, several reputed magicians whose names were known across the globe, even high ranking S-ranked members from a nearby guild. They had all come for one sole purpose; to witness the birth of a new legacy. Branching from the use of some of the world's greatest magical technology, the town's doctors had managed to grasp the potential of the growing fetus within Avueda's womb, concluding it as something they had never before seen throughout the course of their respective medical careers. The child who was fighting his way through the passageway of his own mother was unlike any specimen the world had ever known, possessing such raw talent that it caused the elders inhabiting the large building complex of what was the Ekuseru Mansion to tremble in fear; fear of what may possibly await them in the future. As Jiretto arrived safely, devouring his first ounces of fresh air, many contemplated killing him where he sat. A power such as his could result in an upset of what was overlooked at the time as "magical balance"; disrupting such a cause may would have led to massive failures in direct correlation with the town's most reputed political figures, for this child possessed enough power to someday flourish and take the throne as the king of Perianth for himself, had he wanted. For the time being, however, his very existence was forgiven by the king's royal servants, granting him a few years of life.

Through his preliminary stages of life, Jiretto was raised by those who had partook in quite the interesting activity to instigate his existence in the first place; his beloved parents. The son of two celebrated magicians who had accumulated quite the fortune through their years, it was safe to assume that Jiretto's early upbringing was one filled with luxury. Whatever toy his soul desired would instantaneously relocate itself into the palm of his hand from what appeared to have spawned from thin air, as a result of his father's prestigious skill in pertinence to the lost magic, Arc of Embodiment. A trait he could not have denied, had he been able to manage more than just the names of his parents; Jiretto was spoiled beyond belief, so much so that such a title was a mere understatement. The legacy of both his parents combined seemed to have been what kept the city of Perianth intact, their love and power admired throughout the area as a whole; many of the local children looked up to them as their role-models, while their parents had looked on to them as rivals in the distant past. With their own careers behind them, Jiretto's parents seemingly set aside whatever ambitions they may have owned, all in the attempt to raise a truly prosperous child. They gave their lives for him, the entirety of their efforts aimed towards his future success. A child could not have possibly asked for better guardians, ones which could protect him from the world's greatest evils due to their own tremendous skills, ones who could provide him with anything he asked due to their incredible status' and wealth. Life appeared to be too perfect, almost like some sort of miraculous dream. Every ounce of happiness Jiretto experienced foreshadowed to a threatening future that lurked from beneath the shadows, waiting to grasp him by the ankles and pull him into the darkness for the eternity.

On the night of Jiretto's second birthday, a grand festival took place. A celebration of the ages was held at the Ekuseru mansion, where all were invited to attend and partake in the happiness of Jiretto's existence. Men debated politics while their wives bathed in other fortunes; it was a night to remember for all. However, the same night, the city's council of magicians, comprised of essentially all of those who had witnessed the birth of Jiretto, had come to a valuable decision. Jiretto's growth in the magical field, despite having received absolutely no formal training of the sort, had blossomed like a wild fire, enough to be recognized as a threat to the king's legacy. It was decided on that very night that they would take his life without so much as the slightest bit of hesitation, all in the hopes of maintaining the king's superiority. Knowing the couple would never approve of such an action, the king's royal servants planned to annihilate Jiretto's parents along with him, savoring their wealth for the future of Perianth. The Ekuseru family were declared to have committed treason by the higher ups, rendering them as traitors. In a vile effort, they were slaughtered by the royal servants in the midst of the celebration, their mansion destroyed in the process. The Ekuseru name was forever corrupted in the eyes of Perianth, so much so that all of those who possessed the surname, had they been related to Jiretto in any which way or not, contemplated changing their names in an effort to secede confusion and eradicate hostility among their own people. Through the midst of the scuffle, Jiretto was rescued by the apprentice of his father, by the name of Don Sire, who managed to teleport away the child to a nearby location where he would later visit to retrieve him all together, and raise Jiretto as his own.

Natural Abilities
Immense Magical Power: In a world polluted with magicians of several differing classes, the only proven way to bound them in any one place was through the element of fear. By encompassing the energies stored within themselves, those select mages who would go on to be known as "guild masters" conquered the hearts of many, founding several organizations throughout Fiore. It was a common display of the food chain, in which he who possesses more power than the other is clearly dictated the victor, without fault, and without further question. Through the act of no more than one's presence, mages throughout history have tamed their grace, replenishing each and every one of their desires. The exertion of one's magical power tells an entire story within the period of an instant; much can be deciphered from such vigorous strength.

From birth, Jiretto was blessed with an abundance of magical energy that many who have deemed frightening; with his coming of age, he learned to master it quickly, taming the godsent powers that had nestled and nurtured within him. Even amongst the Ten Wizard Saints, Jiretto's supply of energy is overseen as colossal --so refined that it leaves those who are not yet about his level staggering down to their knees, if not blatantly dropping them headfirst into the ground. When Jiretto summons forth his inner power, a thick layer of bright red light emerges from inside of his body, exploding and quickly encasing his being in a perfectly aligned shroud akin to aura. Jiretto is highly reputed for his control over his magical energy, even despite how difficult it would appear to effectively maneuver such oceanic amounts. In truth, being a master of the Arc of Time, Jiretto has become one with his magical containers, whereby triggering their awakening is all but similar to blinking his eyes, a natural phenomenon of the utmost caliber. The earth is known to quake and give way beneath his feet as this aura surges forth, growing increasingly more powerful with each passing second. Even the very heavens themselves tremble in respect to Jiretto's might, as a pillar of light from his being ascends into the skies, splitting apart the clouds and invoking daylight about his being, almost as if his soul has testified its worth to the angles above. The display of such gargantuan energy is truly a rare sight, such that even casts an illusion of the sorts, twisting the fabrics of the air about him. Strong winds erupting is also not an uncommon factor during such an event. Despite his previous shortcomings, Jiretto's degree of mastery has actually enabled him to weave the literal magical aura seeping from his spirit into solidified objects; in example, Jiretto can craft a sword from his own magical energy, turning it into a weapon itself.

Those within his presence practically basked and bathed within the raw, untamed power Jiretto had possessed; from it, they perceived great potential. As he grew in age and strength, the dexterity of his magical energy only grew all the more potent. Now within his middle ages, Jiretto has gained a degree of control over his phathomal inner powers. When invoked, it is introduced as a subtle aura, red in color. Almost as if it were a reflection of his personality, it feeds off of his pent up emotions and embodies his true motives. When happy, the energy flowing around him is calm, relaxed, almost soothing in nature. However, when angered, the red aura grows fierce, and crackles around him like the scorching hot flames of the dark abyss. It reveals an unprecedented murderous intent, one that invokes fear within the very hearts of those whom are caught within its able vicinity. It is essentially suffocating to bear, harassing people as if they were peasants before tearing their souls through their throats.

Such is a power that exists for an unparalleled purpose, one that strives for red lit massacre, and the destruction of the world at large. When Jiretto has succumbed to his inner demon, that is when his power is at its very peak. In such a state of mind, his magical aura takes the shape of flames, burning all to ashes. Being of his spiritual will power, it in itself becomes a weapon at his disposal, of which he can take advantage of to strike his foes from a distance. The very heavens themselves cry out in horror as the skies are forced to part ways, opening for gleams of glitter from the blazing sun. The earth trembles in fear under such might, begging for mercy and forgiveness. It rivals that of the Ten Wizard Saints, and quite possibly even further beyond.

Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant: According to none other than himself, Jiretto prefers close range combat above all else. He is a fierce combatant when up close and personal, possessing a body that can bang down low for extended periods of time. Coupled with his dragon-esque reflexes, Jiretto is properly able to determine the movements of his opponent and counter attack accordingly. He was able to completely outmaneuver and out speed an entire platoon of warriors on his own using only his bare fists. The speed at which Jiretto delivers a round of kicks is inconceivable to most magicians; appearing as though he has almost unleashed a barbaric assault, whereby physically, several tens of replications of his feet are created as a result of continuously rapid movement. Naturally, his refined instincts as a dragon play into his fighting style heavily, giving him an advantage against other mages, including other types of slayers, who would not have been blessed with the very same attributes. The natural senses of a dragon cannot seemingly be replicated without the possession of their specific slaying type magic, thus, giving Jiretto an advantage, which according to himself, he would not even need against essentially anyone who stares down in his path. These are coursed into his fighting style and present in every inch, natural as the act of blinking. For this very reason, it is more difficult for him to miss than it is for him to inflict damage through physical contact, as his mind and body are always adjusting to the every move his opponent makes. In conjunction with his refined stature and agile, swift movements, Jiretto is not to be underestimated within a close quarters confrontation, most nearly because those of whom are as unfortunate enough to experience such a disaster cannot seem to comprehend the speed at which he makes everyone of his movements --akin to the reflexes of a dragon. Battling a dragon with fists alone would prove to be an ill perception in any case, as history itself has told the tales of these chaotic beasts laying waste to the world with their talons alone.

Enhanced Strength: Unlike several of Jiretto's other feats, the accomplishments of his strength are completely unrelated to his dragonic upbringing. While it is true that the latter was pushed to his utmost limits in terms of training as a child, the amount of hard work Jiretto devotes to his body on a daily basis is what is to appreciate most when factoring his impressive muscular figure. There is no shortcuts to achieving a goal --Jiretto realizes such a fact more than anyone. He has put in the hard work over the course of several months, years even, to achieve what some refer to as a "dream physique"; a body which is capable of banging with the largest of fiends and the most gruesome creatures of the world. Such an astounding build enables Jiretto to utilize his ice spells in a manner in which he can confront his opponent directly; his stature alone working as a line of defense due to its considerable durability to fend off incoming enemy attacks. Jiretto's strength is enough to cause the ground to shake in the form of a miniature earthquake upon impact and when further amplified by his ice prowess, plunge through refined iron. It is with this very strength that Jiretto utilizes some of his vast icicle creations to the full extent of their powers. As through the power of his dragon slaying magic, Jiretto is not beyond gaining substantial increases in his power to inflict all the more damage. By simply tapping into his inner lacrima and calling upon the dragonic energies bestowed within him, Jiretto can dramatically increase his strength, a fabled attribute renown as the drive of a third generation dragon slayer, which have been granted both the benefits a human replicating the prowess of a dragon could ever long for. His training in regards to his body began from a very young age; forced to survive in the terrains of a polar climate, the boy had to rely on his own flesh to provide himself with enough warmth to make it into the next day. Jiretto's strength is not limited to the physical value, but rather, extends mentally, as well. His body adapted its tissue to survive frostbites, naturally becoming tougher and much more resilient. For this reason, his body itself has become a natural line of defense for the dragon slayer, making him a hard tyrant to puncture physically, and all at the same time, his many past experiences making him a more refined opponent who does not so easily succumb to the complaints of his enemy, most nearly meaning that it is not very easy to get within his mind and drive him into the path of a lunatic.

Enhanced Speed & Reflexes: A defining trait of Jiretto's combatical prowess is his unrivaled speed. Blessed with the lineage of a dragon, Jiretto's body has been exposed to the sheer intensity of dragon training ever since a young age. In turn, he was granted tremendous power and durability. Because of this trait, his reflexes are at their utmost limit and absolute highest peak, enriching the frost dragon slayer a sense of awareness never quite unraveled to the premises of the torn world. Jiretto is able to react to anything and everything, especially incoming projectiles and spells directed his way. Almost as if he has a "sixth sense", Jiretto is informed of incoming danger through the pores of his skin. He is conditioned and toned for success; the combination of lethal speed and dashing reflexes are more fearsome than they may appear. To the eyes of Jiretto, it is almost as if the world is moving at a much slower pace --something that came to be as a result of his superior athleticism, which of course itself transpired only through the many training regimes he placed himself within. The exemplary weakness of a mage is his stubbornness to train his body, believing ignorantly that there would be no use of close combat or anything of the sort when he is already able to harness energies and attack from a distance. This is the case with the typical mage; most do not have enough time to strengthen themselves both physically and mentally, as mastery of either category would more than often require commitment that would otherwise take away from the other. However, because Jiretto is a dragon slayer, these attributes appeared naturally within themselves through the progress he made in his dragon slayer magic. It was a benefit regarded only through the powers of the dragons, something that no other slayer would be able to obtain. This is, of course, what places dragon slayers over the hurdle, even if the other types have been regarded with more strength; in the world inhabited by magicians, strength is not the most important attribute.

Keen Intellect: Over the course of many years, which have resulted in nothing short of victory, Jiretto has proven to be a highly perceptive fighter on more than one occasion. Combined with the knowledge he possesses of the magic world, Jiretto utilizes his genius to torment his opponent during battle, often ridiculing them with egotistical remarks. He is also able to adapt to his surroundings at a quickened rate, allowing for him to feel at ease with the utmost level of comfortability when in dire situations. Furthermore, Jiretto's mind allows for him to thoroughly analyze his opponent even when in the heat of battle; his evaluations are often precise in nature, revealing the principles of his opponent's spells for him to better assert himself. Toppled with his various senses, Jiretto is able to determine the emotions of his comrades, and better yet, the opposition directly; he can also thereby "sense" the intentions of his enemies, to an extent where he can differentiate the truth from a lie, even when delivered by an assassin. This phenomenon is especially present throughout the course of Jiretto's daily life; as a secret agent of the sorts working diligently under the Magic Council, Jiretto has affiliated himself with several dark guilds across Fiore and worked to gain their trust. He found that even with this ties, however, they were not to be trusted, seeing as though they were dark mages after all; through his experiences with these vile dark lords, Jiretto became one of superior intellect, developing skills that allowed him to distinguish a person by his emotions and behaviors alone. Simply by utilizing the various refined natural senses he was bestowed with, Jiretto can more thoroughly analyze a certain person and decipher their true feelings and intentions; if the man presented before him sought to claim his life, then Jiretto would be made aware of such a lethal situation and append himself to counter accordingly. He is a man who is quite difficult to understand completely, always seemingly one step ahead of the opposition as a whole; just as he himself shall not be trusted under normal circumstances, Jiretto has a hard time believing the words of others even with evidence.

Enhanced Smell: As a dragon slayer, Jiretto possesses naturally enhanced senses. However, his sense of smell is reputed to be on par with the very best and far exceeds the rest of his five basic senses. His nose is able to extract the absolute minimal of differentiations between certain scents; by sniffing the air inhabited by his opponent, Jiretto is able to conclude where he or she may have traveled, and who they may have been with at the time. Additionally, Jiretto can determine for how long his opponent may have been in a certain area due to the strength of the scent --the weaker the scent, the longer the tenure. The man's nose encompasses a large distance, well over a few miles. It also seems that Jiretto rarely relies on his sense of sight when in battle, as this would lead to doubts; by instead relying on his nose, he would thereafter be immune to any sort of optical illusions present within the area and those especially that appear throughout the duration of a battle. Jiretto's nose garners praise for its ability to even discern original entities from their clones and doppelgängers. It seems there is very few possibilities that exist in the world today to escape Jiretto's nose; there is no clear cut way to trick this man. A testament to his skill in disdaining various fragrances and by extension, a worthy wallop of praise in regards to his overall intelligence, was when he properly deciphered a whole course of an entire family simply by placing a spoon beside his nostrils; thereby, he was able to determine each and every ounce of food they had devoured, down to the last pea. Jiretto can also apparently "sniff emotions", making several remarks as to how his opponent is feeling throughout the course of their confrontation.

Enhanced Hearing: The size of Jiretto's ears serves a purpose beyond a clownish appearance; his ears allow for him to instigate even the most silent of movements. A lustrous trait for any dragon slayer, Jiretto is no exception to amplified senses. His are known to be particularly well developed, a result of proper training as opposed to natural possession. Jiretto utilizes such a sense in battle to quickly gain the upper hand, as by carefully hearing out the movements of his opponent, he is able to pinpoint their exact location --an ability that is only further strengthened when used simultaneously with his other enhanced senses. This trait has also allowed the dragon slayer to eavesdrop on more than one conversation in the past, thereby allowing Jiretto to acquire information he otherwise should not have known of, moreover, never had under his possession. Indeed, as a magic council member deployed under the shadows, it is in the dragon slayer's best interest to extract intel from his opposers without altering them of his presence. His sense of hearing is such that he can hear the heartbeat of his prey from quite the distance, much less plan against each and every drawn breath. Upon implementing the element of the sky into his craftsmanship --otherwise blatantly referred to as magic-- Jiretto became able to hear the words being passed along by the very winds themselves. Furthermore, he is more than able to match a voice to its perpetrator, being able to decipher amongst the most subtle of differing details. To Jiretto, there exist several various channels that he can listen to at once; much like a radio system, it is akin to having a set of earplugs sitting beside his drum, only doing so from a much safer environment.

Ice Magic
Ice Magic (氷柱魔法, Aisumajikku): The pinnacle of Jiretto's magical prowess resides within his ability to both construct and manipulate ice. Through years of training, there are very few, if any, wizards who can claim to be on par with Jiretto's level of mastery in pertinence to Ice Magic. His very essence, according to himself, is devoted to this distinct type of magic, which has since expanded and progressed beyond previous borders and limitations to evolve into something truly spectacular. Jiretto is more than capable of quite literally utilizing his very own body as a catalyst to produce the element of water, which is further instantaneously refined to take the form of ice. For one to possess the ability of controlling ice, they must first have been on fair grounds with water, and Jiretto is certainly of no exception. No matter the location, Jiretto can form ice from thin air and subsequently freeze anything. The degree of craftsmanship in which his ice is molded allows for it to emit certain durability, which in turn, allows the ice to retain it's form in entirety even in the presence of vicious hell fire. Though this field of magic has since been translated into higher levels, this particular brand functions as the stepping stone for Jiretto's arsenal, enabling the man to reach newer heights.
 * Freeze: With Jiretto's level of mastery, he is effortlessly able to utilize the element of ice; his prowess extends to such an extent that he is capable of turning any designated area into a winter wonderland with little burden on his magical energy container. The same is true with any and all physical objects; all materials Jiretto comes into contact with is frozen in a thick block of ice in the blink of an eye. This also makes it much easier for him to dispose of his foes, as once the particular substance has been converted into ice, it is that much easier to shatter into pieces. Jiretto is renown for this trait especially, as when it is combined with his Dragon reflexes, he is able to track high speed projectiles and nullify them in the midst of their motion simply by freezing them. For Jiretto to freeze something, however, he does not necessarily have to be in direct physical contact with an object, as his presence is able enough to bring upon the bitter cold sensation. Anything that is within a certain radius of Jiretto is quickly altered in temperature, plummeting instantaneously and therefore allowing the dragon slayer more room to work with.
 * Cold Resistance: As a manipulator of the ice element, Jiretto has a direct immunity to the cold. This factor is present throughout the entirety of his repertoire, whether it be in the form of snow or mist. Unlike others, as Jiretto's body itself possesses the ability to generate ice, he will never shiver no matter how drastically the temperature plummets. Likewise, Jiretto simply cannot contract any sort of illness from low temperatures. While others would surely freeze to death wandering about in their bare skin within the arctic, Jiretto would be more than capable of living in such a climate without so much as the slightest bit of a hinderance.

Ice-Make (氷の造形魔法, アイスメイク, Aisu Meiku): A power regarded to the finest; Ice-Make allows Jiretto to shape the element of ice into any virtual form. Jiretto possesses both static and dynamic Ice-Make, enabling him to seemingly breathe life into his several creations. This is initiated through the use of a hand seal —Jiretto curls his right hand into a fist, before resting it on either side of his left hand, reciting the incantation to cast the spell. A surging light-blue aura invokes his body, freezing anything within a certain radius, a testament to just how cold Jiretto's craft is. Dependent on Jiretto's remaining magical energy, he is able to construct several large ice sculptures, easily dwarfing even the largest of sky scrapers in Magnolia. His ice is known to possess a considerable degree of durability, whereas it is not so easily broken, no matter the residual strength of his opponent. Likewise, the same can be said for flames, even those of other Dragon Slayers; they are unable to melt the ice without suffering their own fair share of consequences, which would most likely require consumption of a hefty portion of their magical reserves.
 * Enhanced Cold Resistance: Upon learning and mastering Ice-make magic, Jiretto's resistance to cold temperatures was even further enhanced. While he was already able to lie out in polar regions without any formal clothing draped over his body, Jiretto's resistance is taken to the utmost limits, to the point where he is almost bestowed with an immunity to ice and snow. Cold weather no longer plagues the man, nor can it be used against him. This also negates any chances of catching a cold or attracting dry skin for Jiretto.
 * Ice-Make: Cold Excalibur (氷聖剣, コールドエクスカリバー, Cōrudo Ekusukaribā): Quite possibly Jiretto's most reliable offensive capability is the fearsomeness he displays through direct confrontation; a man renown for his agile movements, Jiretto prefers close range combat above all else, as when his opponent touches his ice, that is when the true nature of his power is revealed. This factor is more thoroughly introduced with the essence of the Cold Excalibur. While he is more than capable of eliminating his enemies with his fists alone, the presence of an ice-make weapon greatly enhances Jiretto's offensive power, turning him into a powerhouse. The sword is weaved through the basic principles of ice-make magic, and as such, is incredibly quick and otherwise requires little to no effort on Jiretto's behalf to construct. The sword itself is not particularly heavy, though remains highly efficient in terms of raw cutting power and sheer strength. This allows Jiretto to fight to his potential without a burden on his jolting speed. Furthermore, because it is crafted from ice itself, other magicians who are not on even terms with ice cannot properly wield the blade, as even the slightest touch works to crack their skin due to its freezing temperatures. The blade itself can also act as a wand of the sorts, capable of casting ice spells through the very tip. While this feature is seen less often, it allows for Jiretto to encase his opponent in a block of ice upon contact, rendering so much as one slice a lethal blow to his opponents. Like all his creations, Jiretto can imbue his own blood into the Cold Excalibur to make it resistant to time magic, while also enhancing the blade's overall power.
 * Ice-Make: Shield (盾, シールド, Shīrudo): Jiretto's first line of defense comes in the form of a large defensive shield. The ice-make shield was in actuality the very first spell he had managed to grasp the full concept of, and thus, utilized it greatly during his childhood especially. However, even in his later years, the technique has come to great use; more often than not, activating such a power is as natural as it is for him to blink. Upon Jiretto's very command, a large plated sphere, taking the form of a shield is forged through the principles of ice-make magic. The shield itself is quite durable, enough to remain intact even against some of the highest caliber attacks known to mankind. Additionally, the shield is capable of emitting various spiked icicles from the outside, protruding whatever comes into contact with it, be it an incoming projectile, or an actual magician. The immense defensive capabilities of the shield are such that it possesses the ability to completely obliterate the spell in question upon contact. However, it is worth noting that the shield's thickness can be lessened to some extent, in order to allow Jiretto to instead repel incoming spells back to his opponents.
 * Ice-Make: Floor (床, フロア, Furoa): Without a doubt, one of the more cunning techniques within Jiretto's arsenal, the ice-make floor allows Jiretto to quite literally shape the terrain to his liking, thus, giving the s-ranked mage the clearcut advantage in battle. This technique can be emitted through the soles of his feet, allowing him to initiate the spell secretively. On most occasions, Jiretto's enemies are unable to so much as stand on his ice, as it is far too slippery for one to adjust to in the first experience alone. Like all ice-make spells, the element of water is highly susceptible to Jiretto's prowess; with this particular execution of ice-make magic, Jiretto is able to freeze large bodies of water at will.

Dragon Slayer Magic
Frost Dragon Slayer Magic (霜の滅竜魔法, Shimo no Metsuryū Mahō): Initially classified as a First Generation Dragon Slayer, Jiretto was raised by the frost dragon, Sukaru, until his untimely departure. However, years later, he would obtain a dragon lacrima and have it transplanted into his womb, thus making him a Third Generation dragon slayer. In particular, Jiretto possesses a form of dragon slayer magic akin to the ice element, heralding him as a frost dragon slayer. This allows Jiretto to control ice at his very command, which includes manipulating even preexisting ice. Naturally, as a masterful user of ice-make magic, this blessing extends to his capabilities as the frost dragon and more thoroughly enhances his prowess. The ice element gives Jiretto a clearcut advantage over water-based magicians, as essentially, ice is water in a frozen state. This has since rendered water type attacks futile against Jiretto due to his sheer ability to quite literally dispose of it in a manner of seconds; first by freezing the liquid into a solid state and thereafter shattering it in the same instant. In contrast to most dragon slayers who are limited to the consumption of their own element, Jiretto is able to eat water orientated subjects without hesitation, increasing his overall advantage in terms of battle when regarding the fact that water vapor exists in the earth’s very atmosphere itself. With Frost Dragon Slayer Magic, Jiretto is blessed with unforeseen prowess in pertinence to the element of ice; he is able to freeze anything in his path, concealing various substances within blocks of ice so as to negate their existence completely. Thereafter, he is able to shatter the structures with the mere flicker of his hand, causing whatever had been caught inside to vanish into thin air. This ability of his extends even to flame orientated spells of the highest caliber, suggesting that perhaps Jiretto's affinity towards the element of ice is superior to the rest. Dragon Slayer's Secret Art (滅竜奥義 Metsuryū Ōgi): The aforementioned class of sorcery is among the highest caliber spells Jiretto is able to use. For certain matters, they are quite literally the techniques that define his legacy as a warrior and more thoroughly display his craftsman to the rest of the world. Their sheer power alone is enough to shape the environment, leading Jiretto to prohibit their regular usage in battle. As such, for Jiretto to rely on such spells is beyond rare; one will know they have the man's full efforts when he utilizes such high level magic. The spells were taught to Jiretto by Sukaru himself, mere months before her departure, meaning the boy was left to master the techniques himself. Gradually overtime, however, he even created his own breed of techniques based off the same fundamental principles. They are referred to by Jiretto himself as the very pinnacle of ice magic.
 * Frost Dragon's Roar (霜鉄竜の咆哮, Toukan no Hōkō): The signature breath of the frost dragon, Jiretto's roar is known to pack quite a wallop. The interesting aspect of Jiretto's breath is the rigid temperatures at which he unleashes them; as a manipulator of freezing temperatures, his breath attack is able to freeze physical, liquid, and gaseous objects with relative ease. When caught within its impressive radius, at the very least, the spell leaves the target with several third degree burns as a result of frostbite, if not leaving them in a nullified state where they have essentially been transformed into an ice sculpture. With his prowess, Jiretto has never failed to freeze anything, including the flames of praiseworthy mages. It is often difficult for one to escape the vicinity of the technique because of the adverse effect the roar can take; dependent on the situation, Jiretto is able to change his breath attack into a literal chilled gust of air, where it appears to take on a smoke-like personal, covering a large distance in a short amount of time. This cloud of mist can be treated like a thick fog, in the sense that it erases Jiretto's being from plain view and makes it increasingly difficult to determine the output of his attacks. As a trained assassin, Jiretto's fines carefully allows him to hide his footsteps in a manner in which they can only be heard by fellow dragon slayers and other amplified senses alike, rendering him naked to the average magician. This in turn, makes him a vital threat, seeing as though he is more than capable of sneaking up on uneasy targets and stealing away the very lives they hold sacred.
 * Frost Dragon's Icicle Spear (霜鉄竜の氷柱槍, Toukan no Tsuyari): Much like the ordinary ice make magic, this technique displays masterful usage of effectively shaping magical energy. To begin, Jiretto quite literally calls upon his dragon powers to grasp the element of ice; thereafter, by harnessing the power directly, he is able to shape the ice to his will. For this particular attack, Jiretto shapes his ice into the form of a large spear, though it should be noted that it is more reminiscent of a halberd or staff. Nonetheless, in appearance, the spear greatly resembles a harpoon in that two additional pikes protrude at the very tip, giving the spear a total number of three blades. At times, Jiretto has even been seen using this spear to cast magic; by focusing his energy into the staff, he is able to directly infuse up to a certain amount of spells within the spear so that others can utilize his unique form of dragon slayer magic simply by wielding the weapon. It is also worth noting that the spear possessing incredible impaling capabilities and more often than not leaves those who have been grazed by it with frostbite, rendering it futile for Jiretto to allow even his own comrades to utilize it in the first place.
 * Frost Dragon's Honing Claw (霜鉄竜の剃刀砥爪, Toukan no Kamisoridotsume): This is simply the collective term coined to the basic maneuver of a frost dragon slayer such as Jiretto. As a manipulator of ice and an experienced handler of magical power, Jiretto's will extends into his spells, allowing him to shape his energy in any way he deems necessary. In this particular example, Jiretto creates an extension of his arm through the use of his ice; the arm is coated in a layer of ice taking the form of a dragon's claw. Thereafter, it is able to deal damage from a distance simply by stretching and therefore branding Jiretto with a stationary means of countering his opponent. While it is referred to as a "claw", the same principles can be applied to essentially any of Jiretto's body parts to make for a more efficient means of long distance combat.
 * Frost Dragon's Freezing Hailstorm (霜鉄竜の凝固氷雨, Toukan no Reitouhisame): An attack that targets the terrain as opposed to solely the user's opponent; the freezing hailstorm, as its name suggests, calls upon an endless hailstorm comprised of large spherical shards of ice. Because of the nature of the technique, in that it directly damages the battlefield as opposed to just a single enemy, it is deemed to be quite difficult to evade, as one cannot simply move out of the way of several hundreds of raining ice droplets without once being inflicted by them. Upon coming into physical contact, the shards shatter into several pieces, causing further harm to their victim.
 * Frost Dragon's Arctic Mist (霜鉄竜の防寒靴霞, Toukan no Akuteikiri): The arctic mist is one of Jiretto's most fearsome techniques in the entirety of his repertoire. This is due to nature of the technique itself, coupled with the fact that it is quite effortless for Jiretto to execute in continuous succession without so much as a hint of exhaustion on his magical reserves. Much like his unique dragon's breath technique, this mist is secreted through his mouth. Because it takes the form of a gas, the mist covers a relatively large distance in a very short period of time, rendering it very difficult to evade, especially when already draped within close quarters. The mist's greatest asset is its ability to conceal Jiretto's presence to perfection, without allowing so much as his physical appearance to be visible to his opponents. For this reason, it has become increasingly difficult to live up to the man's might when he has called upon his mist. However, while it is impossible to sense Jiretto's exact location due to the mist carrying his magical energy signature, it is still possible for those with refined senses to pinpoint his whereabouts.
 * Frost Drive (霜気迫, Shimokihaku): An ability available to only a select few dragon slayers —perhaps only of the third generation classification— Jiretto’s enhancement magic comes in the form of the Frost Drive. When activated, Jiretto’s being is laminated in a coating of thick, durable blue magical energy, enveloping and tracing his very figure. This transition is immediate, and as its appearance would suggest, is not very taxing on Jiretto’s body, supplementing the latter with a substantial increase in his physical attributes, the most noticeable of which is in regards to his lateral movement. All of his magical abilities are also augmented and his appearance takes on an overall more menacing persona; his hair especially, rises upward and settles into a spiky manner, representing pointed glaciers.
 * Frost Dragon's Polar Punch (霜鉄竜の正反対穿孔, Toukan no Seihansenkou): As fundamentally sound of a technique as they come; the polar punch is executed through the utmost basic means of frost dragon slayer magic. To begin, Jiretto first coats the given fist in a powerful dragonic aura which begins to emit streams of mist as a result of the freezing temperatures. Upon the slightest of contact, the sensation is transferred from Jiretto's hand to the body of his opponent, slowly rendering them immobile as their body begins to quite literally become encased within a block of ice. Wherever the target had initially been inflicted with is marked with a small icicle glacier which begins to expand feeding off of the host's own magical energy until it effectively traps them. The ice can be removed though is known to leave behind several first degree burns. This has also proven to be quite the challenge, as per the sheer dexterity of Jiretto's ice. It is so incredibly durable that so much as invoking a single crack upon it is said to be impossible for most.
 * Subzero Vanquish: Planetary Avalanche Disaster (零下呪禁惑星雪崩, Reikajugon Wakusei Nadareihen): Jiretto yet again focuses his powers into the atmosphere, summoning forth a colossal sphere made of ice, hypothetically said to descend from the heavens themselves. Due to the sheer size of the sphere, it has proven to be quite difficult to evade, especially considering Jiretto's careful timing coupled with his impressive precisioning based skills. It has enough power to destroy a small village and has been referred to as one of Jiretto's most powerful spells in the past. Upon contact, the sphere shatters into several thousands of shards, further damaging the targeted person or area.
 * Subzero Vanquish: Glaring Frost Blizzard (零下呪禁炯吹雪, Reikajugon Kefubukii): This technique is heralded for its formidable lethality in both accuracy and power. As a technique that targets not only the opponent, but additionally the surrounding atmosphere, evading the glaring frost blizzard is close to impossible, though it may still be possible defend against it. The spell is comprised of an endless storm of large icicles. As durable as they are powerful, the shards of ice fire in rapid succession from every angle —reminiscent of a machine gun— until eliminating their target. The shards are able to penetrate most defenses and will easily run through human flesh.
 * Diamond Glacier: Frost Dragon's Fang (霜鉄竜の金剛氷河, Toukan no Naiyahyouga): The enhanced version of the frost dragon's polar punch, this spell is physically orientated. Making good use of his superb reflexes and his agile body, Jiretto quickly approaches his opponent whilst coating his body in the aura of the frost dragon. Shielding his face with both arms, he then proceeds to thrusting his hands forward in a swift motion, leaving behind remains of blue energy that take the form of the letter "X". Additionally, for heightened visual appeal, an illusion of Sukaru —the frost dragon who taught his magic to Jiretto— appears at large behind Jiretto, seemingly influencing the power of his assault. Altogether, the technique is by far Jiretto's most reputed when measuring strictly close quarters combat.

Dragon Force (ドラゴンフォース, Doragon Fōsu): A state of being initially believed to be unobtainable by even the most powerful of dragon slayers, dragon force is the ultimate transformation that bestows power akin to a real dragon upon only the most privileged slayer. For generations, even the most gifted prospects across the world have only entered the state a handful of times and through trivial means; in Jiretto's case, his supreme prowess has enabled him to initiate the transformation at will. When Jiretto enters dragon force, a thick aura surrounds him and shoots upward in a pillar form, devastating everything in its path. The atmosphere plummets instantly, to the point where snow flakes begin to rain down from the heavens. The appearance of the form is quite similar in resemblance to the transformations of the twin dragons of the Sabertooth Guild. Jiretto's hair grows longer in length and as a result of the surging magical aura, is forced from its roots into a standing position. His muscles also grow more fierce in shape and size, a sign that his power has increased dramatically. In addition, his unique golden colored eyes emanate a mysterious light, seemingly glowing in the dark. The most distinguishable physical alteration, however, is the layer of dragon scales that encompasses his entire body, spanning from his forehead all the way down to his toes. The scales are especially noticeable on his face; splitting into halves, they pay homage to the man's polar prowess by taking the form of a layer of ice. These markings can also be seen on his chest, arms and legs, providing the dragon slayer with an extra layer of defense, much like the benefits a real dragon.

Sky Frost Dragon Mode (霜空竜形式, Mōdo Sōkūryū): Upon devouring the wind orientated dragon slayer magic of an unnamed dragon slayer and having the energy infuse with that of his own lacrima, Jiretto acquired the ability to utilize his Frost Dragon Slayer Magic enhanced with wind. In comparison to the rest of his abilities, this certain event took place much later during his lifetime, suggesting the man would not be as well versed within its usage; however, this is not entirely true, as this feature functions as an extension to his own prowess with ice magic. The way the wind element was fused with his ice has allowed only for his power to rise, as evident with the many victories he has surfaced within his respected career. When activated, the wind magic exists over the ice like an extra layer of magic, drastically empowering the output of damage. In this state, Jiretto is said to have transcended beyond the limitations of the average slayer by gaining a surplus of power that very few have ever acquired. When initiated alongside Dragon Force, Jiretto is said to be at his very best, with many referring to such a state as his "maximum power". Within the transformation, Jiretto's hair grows considerably longer, falling past his shoulders and flowing down his back. He also grows taller and his muscles become more defined. Unlike in the past, Jiretto's aura is not blue in color, but rather white, symbolizing the fusion between the wind and ice elements respectively. Due to the collective grouping effect created by the fusion, Jiretto is able to devour the water vapor present within the atmosphere itself; this is due to the reasoning that ice is essentially frozen water, and that with the power of the wind comes the ability to devour the air. Not unlike all previous upgrades, all of Jiretto's spells are enhanced substantially; however, in comparison to earlier transformations, this time around, Jiretto's powers are said to be at their highest magnitude.
 * Sky Frost Dragon's Roar (唸り空霜空竜, Sōkūryū no Hoko): Not unlike the vast majority of dragon slayers, the very first spell garnered by them at large is the signature breath attack orientated around the signature element they encompass. However, as a roar comprised of not one, but rather, two dragon slayer elements, the roar of the sky frost dragon is considerably more powerful, as the sheer size of the technique would suggest in nature. The technique is exhaled through the mouth in the form of a large aura shaped beam. Dark blue in color, the sheer temperatures of the blast are in itself enough to completely freeze just about anything in its path solid, leaving behind assured frostbite and immobilizing any forms of life altogether. Though he is unable to make use of it himself, Jiretto likens this technique especially to that of Unison Raid, in that the two dual type elements are fused with one another perfectly, albeit by one sole individual. The frost remains the more durable asset, showing the most prominence in terms of color. The wind, on the other hand, is stored inside the blast, with a powerful layer sublimed like a coating around the entirety of the roar, naturally providing all the more fighting power by sharing its razor wind cutting properties. Because of the intensity of the attack, large winds surface, blowing about objects as large as buildings before freezing them in midair.
 * Sky Frost Dragon's Embodiment (霜空竜鉄竜の, Sōkūryū no Gugen): With the infusion of sky and frost properties, Jiretto gains the ability to utilize the unique dragon slayer magic of the sky dragon, even if it would be indirectly. Nonetheless, Jiretto has embedded some of the more well known spells into his own arsenal; though, because they were repolished by him, he has since renamed them to his liking and their effects may vary in comparison altogether. The dragon slaying magic of the sky dragon is truly unique in nature, given that it revolves heavily around supplementary skills used to enhance the slayer's already refined senses and abilities. One such advantage comes in the form of the long lost healing magic; however, unlike those who are privileged enough to harness sky god slayer magic, sky dragon slayers are unable to heal themselves through their own magic. This is essentially makes the typing irrelevant for Jiretto, seeing as though the man does not possess any known nakama at this point in his career. However, the magic is still able to cure and negate the effects of poison altogether, which is what this particular technique revolves itself around. By coming into contact with the aura of this spell, any such poison is instantly nullified upon contact, given that the sky dragon slayer magic would have cured it on the spot.
 * Regalia (神璽, Shinji): The testament of the prowess of a sky dragon slayer comes in the form of an arsenal employed with various supplementary spells and otherwise techniques that exist solely for the purpose of supporting others. However, this protective instinct, while it cannot be used to recuperate the injuries inflicted upon oneself, can indeed be extended to enhance the abilities of the user. This is by far the greatest asset of sky dragon slayer magic, as it allows for the slayer to enter a superficial state of being for a short period of time. However, while it is considered minimal in the measurement of time, the dramatic increase in power can very well tip the balance of a battle and more precisely dictate a victor. "Regalia" is the collective name coined to the supplementary spells garnered by a sky dragon slayer, and is the direct counterpart to the spell "Vernier" utilized by Wendy Marvell.
 * Regalia: Gear First (神璽・速初代, Shinji Soku Shodai): The first of four gears, this spell --as with all the other gears-- functions as a supportive type magic to increase Jiretto's already impressive abilities. This gear in particular is responsible for providing the phenom with an increase in speed and overall movement. Additionally, Jiretto's body is coated in an aura --similar to when he has Frost Drive initiated-- thereby granting him flight for however long the spell's attributes are active. As with all four gears, it can be performed in quick succession to double the speed-increasing capabilities and can be used in conjunction with the other gears.
 * Regalia: Gear Second (神璽・速二代目, Shinji Soku Nidaime): With the power of the second gear comes an astounding enhancement to Jiretto's already praiseworthy physical attributes. Though his body remains the same size; without so much as his body growing in length or even his muscles growing larger, the magic that is presented before him works to increase his offensive fighting power considerably. This benefit is not limited to only physical attacks. As with all four gears, it can be performed in quick succession to double the effects of the enhanced attributes and can be used in conjunction with the other gears.
 * Regalia: Gear Third (神璽・速代目, Shinji Soku Sandaime): The third gear nourishes Jiretto's body with an anticipated defensive "mechanism". Through the power of magic, Jiretto's skin becomes much more durable, to the point where he is able to take on weaponry slashing against his bare chest. As with all four gears, it can be performed in quick succession to double the effects of the enhanced attributes and can be used in conjunction with the other gears.
 * Regalia: Gear Fourth (神璽・速四代目, Shinji Soku Yondaime): The final gear provides Jiretto with a surge of energy. His stamina is plummeted to unprecedented levels, with any hints of exhaustion suppressed immediately. Additionally, any wariness, such as sore muscles and an aching back is corrected, though the injuries themselves cannot be healed. As with all four gears, it can be performed in quick succession to double the effects of the enhanced attributes and can be used in conjunction with the other gears.
 * Sky Frost Dragon's Heaving Paranoia (霜空竜超常曳, Sōkūryū no Chojoei): Without a doubt, one of techniques Jiretto admires the most within his entire skill set. This is due to the usefulness it possesses, having apparently won him many battles throughout the course of his magician career. This spell has the ability to negate the effects of enemy techniques, not unlike the spell Raise utilized by the sky dragon slayer, Wendy Marvell. Its usefulness configures several properties by returning the body of the user to its original state. By doing this, any such restrictions that had been placed earlier will be removed immediately. This has proven to be true even against gravity magic, as it essentially allows Jiretto to carry on almost as if no additional amount of stress had been applied to his being. The same goes for any such spell that attempts to constrict his movement; by relying on this power, Jiretto can free himself of any superficial link created through magic, such as Maguilty Sense and even Body Restriction Magic. This technique is also referred to as "Haze" by Jiretto, symbolizing an arctic mist that appears to clear away any unwanted irritations.
 * Sky Frost Dragon's Aurora Gust (霜空竜極光風, Sōkūryū no Kyokkoupu): This spell is the absolute pinnacle of sky frost dragon slayer magic, in that it gracefully combines the two elements to the point of perfection. It can almost be perceived as a fighting style in its own nature, as it makes use of the surrounding atmosphere of the battlefield as a whole. By commanding the air within the sky itself, Jiretto creates powerful gusts of wind fragmented with various snow flakes to attack his opponents. The power of the technique is enough to send his enemies flying and keep them down, by commanding the air pressure to crush them to the ground. The temperatures of the wind combined with the razor sharpness of each blade makes it a very fearsome technique, as it not only slashes the target to pieces, but seeps sheer coldness into their bloodstream through the wounds it creates. The current of the winds is controlled by Jiretto's hands and thus, responds to the movements and gestures of his hand's motions. It is in consideration as Jiretto's most fearsome technique, in that he quite literally causes the surrounding space of his opponent to betray them.

Dragon Slayer's Secret Art Revision (滅竜奥義改, Metsuryū Ōgi Kai): The secret art of a dragon is defined essentially by chaos. Utilization of said techniques would result in massive destruction of the terrain and surrounding environment, leading them to be heavily restricted by Jiretto himself, seeing as though the man is always in the face of public --albeit secretively-- and calling upon such sheer strength would undoubtedly bring upon an end to such a dream. Additionally, these spells are referred to to by Jiretto as a dragon slayer's forbidden art, due to their nature of wrecking havoc and their ability to annihilate anything in their path. The spells are only available to Jiretto in his Sky Frost Dragon Slayer Mode, and thus, combine the dual elements of wind and ice, most nearly meaning that they possess the ability to both tear and freeze their opponents.
