Enerjak

"I am the light that illuminates the darkness stagnating people's hearts."

- Libra

Equilibrium Warrior Enerjak (平戦士・エネージャク, Heisenshi Enājāku) also known as Libra (ライブラ, Raibura) is the right-hand-man of Joker in the Zodiac Knights; serving as, ironically, the Knight of Balance and Harmony; as well as the Libra Symbiote (リブラ・シムビウーツ, Raibura Simubiūtu). An extremely enigmatic figure in the Dawn/Daybreak mythos, Libra is one of the main antagonists in the series, along with his creator and a certain other.

Libra's real identity is never revealed; the right-hand-demon of the Zodiac Knights is shrouded in mystery; being for all intents and purposes, the charismatic and mysterious face of the group whenever Joker is on break—the Phoenix Knight's conversation with Libra in Rise Legend reveals that Libra is the "Eternal Champion of the Trump Card", serving as the everlasting guardian of Joker in any and all of the Sagittarius Symbiote's incarnations. A nimble, agile, and stealthy fighter, Libra is fearless in facing his opponents, regardless of their powerful magic and abilities. His alias when going masquerading as a human is Kouhei (公平, Kōhei).

Unlike the rest of the Zodiac Knights, Libra is a Makamou (魔化魍, Demonic Spirit of the Countryside); a term coined the two original demons; he turned himself into a robot and he replaced his demonic body with soulless machinery just to hunt down and destroy the Phoenix Knight—the two being the only Makamou in existence. He has been alive since the beginning of time; hunting down his sibling so that he can steal the Phoenix Knight's immortality for himself.

Appearance
Libra's form is very demonic; with a touch of heroic; following a rather unique blend of cyborg and samurai. He has completely replaced all aspects of his biological body with highly advanced robotic parts imbued with the ability to never rust or decay and could even repair itself after suffering incredible damage which allowed him to survive beyond his intended life span as a person.

The armour itself appears mostly in whites and blacks. He possesses a golden belt wrapped around his waist with an emerald gem—the white armour is centered around his upper body, focusing in spiked pauldrons upon his shoulders and ending in twin drapes extending from his hips on both sides. The gauntlets he is clad in are jagged at the ends, and cover his hands with brown gloves. For face protection, Libra wears a white helmet that has black markings which are cut in black from the chin to the forehead, curving around like a "V"—there is the decal of a golden eagle upon the center of his helmet, and finally, there is a fin-esque protrusion extending from the back of his head.

As Kouhei, Libra is a tall and slender man with a few similar traits to Giselle. He has messy, shoulder-length white hair with a black streak shaped like a V and piercing green eyes. He wears an open, red-collared shirt with a black blazer, a long jacket, black trousers, and black shoes.

Personality and Traits
As the Knight of Balance and Harmony, Libra most of the time appears cold and emotionless and has a strange habit of dropping whatever he is holding whenever he is shocked. He is generally quiet and a skilled martial artist, serving as both Joker's personal aide and bodyguard. He is a serious, no-nonsense sort who maintains a calm and collected presence, rarely letting things get to his head. However, he is also quite prideful and even arrogant sometimes, to the point of occasionally getting him into issues. He prefers to do things on his own, and hates to rely on others' assistance with anything. True to the nature of his symbiote, which is based on a star sign that takes the form of a scale, he has a habit of using terms related to weight like "light" and "heavy" when talking to others.

He does not hesitate to attack anyone who threatens or dishonors Joker, as well as anyone who seriously irritates him, even if the offender in question is a fellow Zodiac Knight member. This is shown that, even though he knows Tsuruko is important to Joker's plans, after Tsuruko pats Joker on the shoulders and (rather enthusiastically and loudly) thanks Joker after feeding her information during the Aquarius incident, Libra attacks without prejudice, barely letting Tsuruko transform, and not giving her the chance to use the Survive Blaze Ring. He is seemingly extremely loyal to Joker, following his orders to the letter and will not let anything come in the way of his master's plans, not even his fellow Zodiac Knights' incompetence, shown when he fought Tsuruko and Gary so that Virgo could carry out her orders. He shows emotion only when things do not go his way such as the failure of the Zodiac Impact displaying anger at Gary for interfering. Before battle, Libra tends to proclaim, "The King's sentence is given. It's death!" (王の判決を言い渡す. 死だ!, Ō no hanketsu o iiwatasu. Shi da!)

History
Libra was one of the two Makamou created by The Exalted One at the beginning of time; both serving as generals for its army—however, the second Makamou defected after seeing the cruelty that Libra displayed, becoming the very fight to rebel against the cause of The Exalted One. The two would wage an eternal war; with said Makamou becoming the Phoenix Knight to fight against his eternal enemy. While aiding The Exalted One in the Sengoku period, Libra was seemingly destroyed by Zanma Zaitsuhara's sacrifice, but actually reformed his body around the Oni as part of his plan to control the powers of the Majin. In the current time, with the Phoenix Knight seeing if it is him or Zanma, "Libra" fumes when the Phoenix Knight apparently forgot his name.

As a result, the real Libra was dormant as he allowed the amnesic Zanma to use his name when formally introducing himself to the Phoenix Knight during their first encounter in Daybreak, as the truth of Zanma's fate is revealed as the real Libra reveals himself and regains control of Zanma's body. Luckily, the Phoenix Knight manages to free his ally from Libra's possession by defeating him—though his body shattered into a thousand pieces, Libra is recreated and forced to use nearby humans as tentative vessels on a monthly basis; his hate for the Phoenix Knight only intensifying.

Equipment
Starvader Blade (スターベイダー・ブレード, Sutābeidā Burēdo): The Starvader Blade, also known by its designation of the Kenkajōtō (喧嘩上刀, Fighting Superior Sword), is Libra's main weapon—a 74.9 cm long sword made of Galactanium, which is an unbreakable metal forged from The Exalted One's mind with six branch-like protrusions along the central blade; also known as a seven-branched sword. The blade of the sword is 65.5 cm and the tang is 9.4 cm long. There is no hole on the tang to fasten the sword with a hilt. The sword is broken at the top of the tang. The Starvader Blade has been specially customized with a motorcycle-like gear shift which, when pulled, sprays a flammable propellant across the blade and opponent, greatly increasing the power of its blows. This system, known as can be revved up to three times, and can be released either in one incredibly powerful strike, or as three lesser, but still strong, blows; increasing the range and inflicted damage of its attacks. For certain techniques this changes their performance entirely. Because enhanced attacks inflict more damage, this is one of Libra's most valuable assets in a battle. This system is also strong enough for Libra to be able to use it as a jet; this allows the Starvader Blade to have three different elemental abilities imbued in it, each based on a different type of engine: Jet (ジェット Jetto), allows the Starvader Blade to fire jet blades or a blade energy wave; Electric (エレクトリック Erekutorikku) allows the Starvader Blade to do high powered electric slashes, and Steam (スチーム Suchīmu) creates a wave or wall of steam. Libra can also manifest several copies of the Starvader Blade to launch an omnidirectional attack without peer. According to the South Korea, the seven-branched-sword was originally made in Baekje, one of the Three Kingdoms of Korea, designated one of the National Treasures of Japan. The original sword is currently housed in the Isonokami Shrine in Nara Prefecture of Japan and not shown to the public. Replicas are displayed throughout the country and in South Korea. An inscription on the side of the blade is an important source depicting the relationships between the East Asian countries of the period.

Ways of Combat
Master Swordsmanship Specialist: Libra is known for his expert swordsmanship—second to none in wielding his blade, Libra cuts into the opposition with abandon, showing no mercy to his opponents; his fighting style is known as Rozan Dōhogo-ryū (庐山導保護流, Mount Lu Guiding Protector Style) which was obtained at the Five Ancient Peaks of Rozan (庐山, Mount Lu Lushan in Chinese). Libra is able to produce beams of energy by swinging his weapon, can effortlessly cut through solid metal and concrete, and can swing the sword faster than the eye can see, striking opponents multiple times in only a few seconds, attacking with a fast one-handed style with his blade. The stance that he takes within battle is a partial crouch, both knees bent, left arm drawn back and right extended forward; he grasps the hilt of his sword with his left hand and rests the tips of the fingers of his right hand (usually the thumb) on the blade near its tip. His attacks and techniques range from stylish and flashy to brutal and powerful; possessing a good variety. Libra also demonstrates enough skill in wielding his blade to perform incredibly gentle and subtle movements that would normally be impossible for such an immense blade, like deflecting the course of bullets that were aimed at his with only a slight touch. Yet as well as having the ability to use it to slice up houses or giant masses of ice just by swinging his blade, making a powerful, long-range slice, he is also graceful with the blade enough to knock bullets and change their course with little effort and at great speed. He is also able to cut through steel with ease and rapidity. Libra's true power originates from his magical aura and relies heavily on their execution. By using his magical aura in conjuring with his moves, Libra can create unique and dynamic attacks that deal destructive damage on his targets, making him a fierce force to be reckoned with in combat. He tends to use "Iaidō" which is the Japanese swordsmanship skill for quickly unsheathing for an attack and then sheathing again. He has been shown making three slashes at enemies out of standard range, implying he either moved there and back quickly or extended the range on his blade; all that is known is that Libra is easily one of the greatest sword-fighters in the Dawn/Daybreak universe, if not the greatest, tying with Zanma Zaitsuhara. His attack movements are very similar to Giselle's abilities, but Libra wields his weapon in his right hand, providing the illusion of him mirroring Giselle's movements in battle.
 * Rozan Shōryūha (廬山昇龍覇, The Rising Dragon Force of Mount Lu): Libra intensifies his magical power and focuses it at a singular point; his sword, before releasing a powerful upwards swing that unleashes energy upward that is comparable to the image of a majestic dragon which rises in the sky that violently strikes the opponent while rising into the air, giving the visage of a dragon devouring its prey. The sheer force of this technique causes his magical power coated upon the blade erupts upon contact as the dragon also encircles the foe, causing them to shoot up into the skies at intense speeds that only accelerate from there, continuing to climb until the foe's body is incinerated and pulverized by the friction of the atmosphere. The attack cannot be defended against because it is blocked by the huge acceleration suffered. However, Rozan Shōryūha does have one weakness—while performing the move, Libra's heart will be left open for a millisecond. There is a variation of this technique where Libra thrusts forward with his blade instead of slashing upwards; it is not completely vertical instead, it is horizontal, showing the visage of a dragon that rotates around its prey; it should be noted that this technique is much faster than the regular Rozan Shōryūha, and has no weak spot, however, it is slightly weaker than the original.
 * Rozan Hyakuryūha (廬山百龍覇, The Force of the One Hundred Dragons of Mount Lu): A far more powerful version of Rozan Shōryūha; when performing the Rozan Hyakuryūha, Libra adopts a pose where he stands still with his legs apart and holding the Starvader Blade in both of his hands. Then, he releases as much magical energy as possible while releasing a powerful flurry of slashes; an hoard of one hundred dragons manifest behind him; shooting across the sky; all locked on and focusing upon his foe. The dragons are touted to chase their foes to the ends of the earth, no matter where the foe is standing, even if they possessed high speed, as they would catch their foe eventually. The dragons can move at impossible angles, that always manage to reach its target; they will always change their path around any obstacles or pierce through any wall in order to reach their target. However, as a downside, the dragons are easy to deflect and dissipate. As they move though the atmosphere, they gather and condense stray magical particles upon their forms to increase in speed. Upon impact, the foe is destroyed by the dragons that strike them almost everywhere at once.
 * Ōgi: Rozan Shōtenha (奥義・廬山上帝覇, Secret Art: The Godly Domination of Mount Lu): Libra's strongest attack and the ultimate technique of Rozan Dōhogo-ryū. This technique is a nearly exact replication of the Phoenix Knight's Quasar Slice; when performing it, it causes Libra's eyes to glow an ominous crimson; and by gripping his blade, the red details on the sword glow bright. Momentarily, this state gives his enhanced strength. The moment that an opposing attack touches the Starvader Blade, the power of Rozan Shōtenha allows Libra to absorb the opposing attack through the tip of the blade via the sword's cold steel, converting it into a harmless force via slowing the kinetic energy of the blow and allowing the Starvader Blade's tip to consume it, focusing it into the tip instantly, bolstering the power of Libra's next technique enormously. That which he can absorb are nearly any type of magic, and even some naturally made projectiles; as long as it has kinetic energy, he can use it to boost his next attack. Libra unleashes a powerful upwards slash upon the foe which drains an amount of magical power from them equal to the damage inflicted; there, he throws his sword up into the air, which is now spinning after the opponent—this halves any defensive measures that the foe has put up, in addition to halving their own natural defenses. There, he writes runes in the air, catches his sword quickly, and sheathes his blade. Though mid draw, he steps forward with the foot adjacent to the sheath. This dangers him by more often than not putting the adjacent leg into the path of his sword and even closer to his foe; bit on the other hand, this movement enhances the strength and speed of the next swing. From there, he steps into the small distance behind his drawn blade and in front of his opponent without fail, delivering a god-speed blow of overwhelming, monstrous power that has no equal which is able to ignore any defense and effect. A single direct hit is often enough to force opponents to exhaust their own magical energy completely in an attempt to cushion the blow, effectively rendering them drained; however, due to the extreme power of Rozan Shōtenha, it will more often than not kill them instantly. When he slashes outwards using this ability, red rose petals are shown floating in the air, as the foe dissolves into rose petals.

Physical Abilities
Immense Strength: Libra possesses positively enormous amounts of physical strength, having been repeatedly shown capable of lifting and dragging around objects many times his own size and weight, most prominently due to his habit of carrying around a sword as large as he is tall. The fact that he is capable of swinging his enormous blade one-handedly without any strain is a true testament to his titanic strength. In fact, he is so powerful, that he is capable of splitting the hydrogen in the air just by merely punching, allowing him to cause a small explosion that inflicts decent damage. Another feat of strength is that he can punch the ground with enough force to cause small fissures. Libra is able to lift and press 170 metric tons, and he can perform other amazing feats such as punching holes right through thick steel, shatter boulders to smithereens and lift objects many times his own size and weight with his hand; a shocking display of fearsome power in itself. His strength allows Libra to create thin shockwaves of air that cleanly cut through anything they come in contact with. Furthermore; he shows the ability to pulverize large boulders and the like with a single strike using his finger, while others marvel at the level of strength he possesses.

Immense Speed: Libra has shown to be immensely fast, despite his build. Thanks to his tremendous raw power, Libra's leg strength allows him to move fast enough to instantly close a huge gap of space between him and the opponent and even seemingly disappear from sight. In battle he is able to punch with incredible speed in rapid succession, making it highly difficult for his opponents to find an opening and counterattack. Libra is also shown to be able to outrun several opponents who were using High Speed, predicting where they would reappear and rushing to that location, before intercepting them. He is capable of moving so fast that he can decapitate an entire army of foes without them even having time to react. Libra often only appears as a black shimmer of energy, with only the fastest foes even catching sight of his true figure during a battle. This incredible speed gives him an edge in battle against slower or close-range fighters. Libra has been stated repeatedly that he moves at a speed too fast for even Guild Masters to comprehend.

Immense Durability: Libra is unnaturally resilient; this is mostly due to his heritage, but partly it is the result of his own training. His skin itself is unnaturally hard; as he is able to block sword strikes with a single finger without feeling anything, and occasionally he deflects magical blasts up to the mid-90's caliber with a single swipe of his hand. In addition, he can keep fighting despite suffering broken bones as if he never suffered those injuries in the first place. Libra's robotic body has the ability to never rust or decay and could even repair itself after suffering incredible damage. This allows him to survive beyond the lifespan of a human, or even a demon. In addition, his body can survive being heavily damaged and submerged in molten lava; this could be contributed by the Hate Chip and his self-repairing body. It was given spare engines in the event Libra was unable to use his wings to fly. However, his cybernetic nature is also a liability. Magnets could be used to restrain him and EMP (electromagnetic pulse) blasts could disable his limbs, which would render him helpless; furthermore, he's been susceptible to forces that can take control of technology, such as nanites.

Other
Immense Intelligence: In part for his ability to survive with a combination of his hatred and mechanical improvements, Libra is remarkably intelligent. He had constructed his lair and developed multiple weapons and vehicles for the Zodiac Knights to use for their own personal schemes including hover vehicles and his death ray, as well as devising a gas chamber which later incapacitated Tsuruko. He was able to think accordingly and execute cunning plans, assaulting and slaughtering Tsuruko's father so that she could use this fact against her later on and being able to lure Tsuruko into his gas chamber by manipulating her tendencies to never leave a single person behind.

Magical Abilities
Immense Magical Power: Libra has a powerful and overwhelming magical power; as the sheer pressure of his magical power was capable of threatening the lives of all of Team Daybreak, being prevented from killing them only by the intervention of the Phoenix Knight. Libra's magical energy is so intense that its mere presence causes a darkening climate and a distortion of the surrounding environment. Libra's magical pressure has the secondary effect of drawing entire areas under its influence to the point of disrupting energy attacks from enemies, as well as affecting others from what is quite possibly miles away. In most of Libra's battles, his magical energy manifests in the form of massive wings of white light, which have galaxies and stars imbued in them. The wings of light combined with Libra's overwhelming power and presence creates a powerful psychological effect on those who see him. The wings can also be used as a defense mechanism. He commonly uses his magical energy to drastically augment the strength of his slashes.
 * Eye of Laplace (ラプラスの瞳, Rapurasu no Hitomi): The Eye of Laplace is a special ability that Libra possesses—it was the gift that he received from The Exalted One; just like the Phoenix Knight received immortality. With the Eye of Laplace, Libra is capable to mentally communicate over small or vast distances with others, which he uses to read the state of mind of others and engage in silent conversations. Moreover, telepathy also gives Libra an advantage in combat, being able to easily predict the next movement of his foes or his allies, allowing him to work perfectly in tandem with his allies to outperform the opponent via blitzing them with expertly coordinated movements and attacks. This telepathy also enables him to resist spells which affect the mind—the Eye of Laplace is stronger than any illusion or mental attack. Because of the telepathy, he is sensitive to the hostile intentions directed at them by others, allowing him to uncannily react to his opponents even before the offender carries out their intended action. Additionally, the Eye of Laplace can turn people into Drive-Progressors; beings with immense magical power to fulfill their wishes—however, once their wishes are complete, they will fade into nothingness.
 * Divide (ディバイデ, Dibaid): When utilizing this spell, Libra's energy levels slowly increase by using elements to take electrons from his foe every minute, which has the added effect of halving his foe's power or their magic's power, while utilizing said electrons to make an "energy shell" full, in order for them to become less, if not completely unreactive and utterly stable, allowing Libra to consume that power and make it his own, allowing his to gather more and more energy, which he can use as his own power; Libra always keeps a fragment of the absorbed power from his foe so that he can unleash it on a whim. In addition, Libra can transfer the amplified power to any being or object he desires, granting his a decent support role. The time that this ability activates is every minute; however, it can be reverted to the starting point if this spell absorbs too much energy and boosts Libra too much, overloading explosively and giving all the assimilated energy to his foe; there are two variants of this spell, one allowing Libra to consume the foe's power and make it his own every ten seconds, halving the size of objects and living beings around him, with the added effect of absorbing their power, and another allowing him to consume that power and make it his own, halving their attributes and form continuously, including their attack, defense, speed, spiritual power, skills, and even their body at blistering speeds until they vanish from existence, leaving naught in their wake.

Complete Devotion Arc
Complete Devotion Arc (全帰依のアーク, Zenkie no Āku): Complete Devotion Arc is a Lost Magic of significant power that only appears to be attainable to a select number of people. The only known users of the magic are Chrom Thornton and Enerjak, while the former has made a unique contract with Regis, the latter is a symbiote, indicative that the magic itself requires a supernatural being within the body to be of use. Complete Devotion Arc is, as its name might indicate, complete devotion. The magic is an ark, or a ship, so to speak, and whoever climbs aboard this particular ship is subject to complete devotion. It requires extreme patience, and constant training in order to be effectively used, thus making ordinary humans unable to use the magic at all. But the primary requirement to utilize this magic is for the supernatural being(s) within the individual to have been completely devoted to Libra; such as his own symbiote. From herein, the true effects of the magic can be expressed and practiced, which in themselves, take a notorious level of time.

Complete Devotion Arc provides Libra complete access to the magical energy of the supernatural entity that he is contracted with. This then allows for him to have this magical energy within his being at all time, acting as a sort of "reserve". Because the supernatural entity is completely devoted to Libra as a host, or any other bond, they are unable to fight against this bond unless their own power overpowers Libra, which is generally quite unlikely. When Libra is threatened, the magical energy spikes within him, subsequently forming into a shroud or construct of various shapes and sizes based on the Libra Symbiote. Thus, the magic is very versatile. Generally, this will be in a large aura with a skeletal-like frame. Once exerted, it acts to completely defend Libra and obey his commands when in a "stand-by" mode. However, there are obvious weaknesses with a magic like this; as it is quite possible to break the construct with significant force, or move Libra from within the construct to outside of it by manipulation of the terrain beneath him. But this doesn't mean that, if Libra moves, the construct won't follow, because it definitely will in order to protect its master. Due to only implanting a man-made symbiote within him, Libra is required to use Complete Devotion Arc in order to use the power of the demon within him.

Fire Dragon Slayer Magic
Fire Dragon Slayer Magic (火の滅竜魔法, Ka no Metsuryū Mahō): Fire Dragon Slayer Magic is a Caster Magic, Lost Magic, and a type of Dragon Slayer Magic that utilizes fire. Libra is said to be the strongest Fire Dragon to ever exist. Fire Dragon Slayer Magic is a type of Dragon Slayer Magic that grants Libra various characteristics typical of a Fire Dragon: lungs capable of spewing flames, scales that grant protection against fire, and nails covered in flames. Consequently, Fire Dragon Slayer Magic allows Libra to produce and control fire from any part of his body, which can be used both in melee and as a ranged form of offense; he can conjure fire at any place on or all over his body, forming a cloak of flames, increasing his attack power, burn his opponent, improve his movements or just melt frozen creatures and can do so without harming them.

These flames are unable to be extinguished nor are they able to be taken control of by a secondary-source; they move and burn according to the will of Libra himself. The flames act completely separately to regular flames, and pursue an enemy relentlessly with great speed, accuracy and strength. They are also hard to douse, as they continue burning even when struck with a large amount of water. When faced with opposing fire techniques, the flames consume them in order to boost their strength and quantity; making using any sort of fire ill-advised against Libra; meaning that he has absolute dominance over the element of fire. The generated flames can be manipulated in a wide variety of ways, their “type” can be changed at will, and they can even be given a material consistency. Such fire seems to have a “blunt” effect to it, seemingly causing hitting damage alongside burnings. Libra can even raise large columns of fire from the ground and launch himself as burning meteor. Beside offense, he can also use his pyrokinesis defensively by conjure up fields of fire around him to protect himself from damage, handling it delicate enough to create small flames or embers in the palm of his hands.

In addition, Libra can consume external sources of fire to restore his body to a healthy state and regain his reserves of strength, something that also makes him immune to all types of fire, due to his capability of nullifying fire-based attacks by sucking them in and eating them; the consumed fire also seems to possess a different “taste” according to its “quality”. However, Libra can't eat his own flames, or things set on fire by himself, to reinvigorate himself. The cells of a normal human body convert energy from foodstuffs into a form of energy usable by the body, adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Among other changes, his Makamou heritage triggered a specific genetic code rearrangement that caused Libra's ATP production sites to generate a new form of energy containing molecule. This complex molecule not only provides ordinary bodily energy but contains large stores of latent chemical-bonding energies; giving him overwhelming fire manipulation powers.

With Fire Dragon Slayer Magic, Libra can generate shapes composed of fire from any point on his body; he usually employs his hands to "sculpt" the flames, occasionally as a lasso to ensnare enemies. He can form fire into long streams, spheres, or even more complex shapes like letters in skywriting. These flame-objects will only remain their shapes as long as he concentrates upon them. The objects will only burn about 3 minutes before expiring unless Libra continues to infuse them with energy. The temperature of these fiery projections is generally around 2,800 F, near the melting point of iron. Fire Dragon Slayer Magic seems to be unaffected by water, as he is able to create flames even when submerged in water. Libra's magic is not only limited to the flames he himself can generate, but also the fire found in the environment, allowing him to extinguish flames or bend them to his liking. Libra incorporates the flames he ignites into his fighting style, greatly increasing the damage of his blows. He can even use his flames to create a propulsive effect.


 * Fire Dragon's Roar (火竜の咆哮, Karyū no Hōkō): Fire Dragon's Roar is a Fire Dragon Slayer Magic Spell, it is the Fire Dragon Slayer's exclusive Dragon's Roar, incorporating the element of fire. Libra first inhales, gathering fire in his mouth, and then releases such fire in the direction of his opponent, creating a large, exploding fireball which damages and burns the opponent. This spell can be performed two ways: the first, and more "complicated" way involves Libra putting his hands before his mouth, in a pose resembling that of a trumpeter, before releasing the fire, prompting it to be expelled between his fingers. The flames produced by this version start out as a very thin stream, enough to be fit between Libra's fingers, before suddenly enlarging to strike the opponent. The other simpler, and seemingly faster way, simply has Libra quickly gather flames in his mouth and then release them, with no seeming stance required, producing a much larger burst of fire. Having practiced this spell all of his life, Libra mastered the technique to such a level that he can modify its shape, range, etc. If he wants to focus it into a stream, he can with frightening ease by spreading out the energy before it is kneaded and converted into flame; and he can transform it into a chaotic set of spiraling flames by distorting and randomly converging and separating the energy that is required to create the technique. The attack requires about 3 seconds to travel a few ten thousand-kilometer distance, and Libra can immediately fire the next attack after confirming a miss, but after 50 attacks, he will run out of magical energy.
 * Fire Dragon's Iron Kick (火竜の鉄蹴り, Karyū no Tekkeri): Libra's signature spell; when performing Fire Dragon's Iron Kick; Libra charges flames within his foot—before swiftly turning away from the opponent and bending down, before throwing a fast back kick into the opponent's torso. This initial strike has Libra spinning around as he delivers the kick; which works similar to a vacuum; if the foe is caught by the initial blow; then they will be struck the successive eight times. It is one of Libra's most powerful blows; mostly because of it's "multi-hit" feature which doubles the damage as the flames spread out onto the opponent, swirling around them in a powerful spiral, creating a grinding drill effect that blasts into the opponent, inflicting major damage and launching them far away, creating an impact which is powerful enough to propel the unlucky recipient several meters away. The incredible speed both makes the strike far more powerful, and harder to dodge. The amount of time in which these actions transpire make it seem as if the opponent has been kicked with the force of a powerful cannon shell, blowing them away instantly. Despite its basicness, Libra prefers to use Fire Dragon's Iron Kick to finish opponents, as it is a stylish and graceful way to win the battles, and has different powerful variants as a result. Fire Dragon's Iron Kick also covers a lot of horizontal distance, allowing him to strike an airborne opponent from several meters away.
 * Fire Dragon's Sphere Blast (火竜の球破, Karyū no Kyūppa): The last of Libra's basic Fire Dragon Slayer Magic spells; in order to perform Fire Dragon's Sphere Blast, he charges flames within one of his hands, generating large amounts of flame which sheathes itself over his hand. When he swings his arm at his desired target the energy produces surging wave of flame is expelled that results in a punching force traveling through the air in the opponent's direction; manifested in the form of a giant fireball that inflicts massive damage; followed by a massive explosion upon impact. Suffice to say, Fire Dragon's Sphere Blast is a powerful technique with great force, capable of causing large-scale damage and destruction. Libra has used this technique in several different manners, such as striking the ground to create an omnidirectional blast to knock away incoming attacks or slashing at the ground to upturn it and crush everything in its path. The compacted nature and moving speed of the flames allows the attack to grind into whatever it comes in contact with to inflict major damage. This tends to launch Libra's opponent backward after being hit or, if his opponent is knocked to the ground or being launched towards the ground, the destructive force is enough to form a crater. It will "fizzle" out after a certain range, but if charged to the maximum, it can hit twice, and will continue to fly without fading. Fire Dragon's Sphere Blast is multi-hitting, the maximum usually being 5 hits, and it has a property that lets it break through any projectile, which usually catches foes by surprise, as well as blow reinforced, solid titanium walls without effort, making it one of Libra's most powerful techniques.
 * Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic (雷の滅竜魔法, Rai no Metsuryū Mahō): Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic is a Caster Magic, Lost Magic and a type of Dragon Slayer Magic that utilizes lightning. However, this variation of Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic is not the real deal; only replicated via Libra's expertise of manipulating his flames. In order to begin the activation of this magic, he performs a circular motion with his arms. Mentally, it involves a complete absence of emotion and peace of mind, and physically it requires separating the energies of yin and yang, also interpreted as positive and negative electric potential respectively. When the yin and yang collide together to become whole again, lightning is created, with Libra essentially transforming the flames into lightning, also known as "cold-blooded flames" (冷血炎, Reiketsuen); which he can generate from various parts of his body, which is mostly utilized for offensive purposes, with the voltage being high enough to vaporize solid matter. Because of this complexity, a lightning attack usually takes much longer to initiate than standard fire attacks, however, Libra is capable of creating lightning instantly. He usually utilizes this technique by hurling arcing bolts of electricity from his fingertips or palms; it can be executed with either one or two hands. Powerful discharges can branch out into dozens of smaller forks; thus, he can target several foes at once. He can render a target unconscious with only a short burst, and a single, powerful blast is sufficient to kill a person instantly, allowing him to electrocute his opponents to death on contact, not only instantly killing his target, also physically hurling them backwards. It is powerful enough to render anyone caught in it into charred husks if used to its full potency. His Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic spells seem to possess an incredibly high voltage, being particularly destructive, and the electricity of which they’re composed of seems capable of momentarily paralyzing foes, making it easier for Libra to take them out; however, their trajectory might be changed by metal objects acting as “lightning rods”, thus redirecting the attacks.
 * Lightning Dragon's Roar (雷竜の咆哮, Rairyū no Hōkō): Lightning Dragon's Roar is a Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic Spell; it is the Lightning Dragon Slayer's exclusive Dragon's Roar, incorporating the element of lightning. In order to perform this spell, by channeling the cold-blooded flames into his mouth, Libra gathers lightning in his mouth and releases it in the form of a concentrated, destructive blast, capable of destroying everything in a wide area in front of himself. A side-effect of being hit by this attack is, if the target survives, the lightning paralyzes them, preventing them from escaping Libra's next attack. By moving his head around as he casts it, Libra can also employ this spell in an arched trajectory, enabling his to hit enemies that may not be in his direct path. A test of an incomplete version vaporized half of a floating boulder 100m long and reduced the rest to melting slag; it seems that the longer the intervals in not casting the spell, the stronger that Lightning Dragon's Roar becomes—for instance, while utilizing it in quick succession is good to rush the opponent with; waiting around five minutes before casting it causes Lightning Dragon's Roar to become a spell worthy of a "finishing move". As a contrast to his Fire Dragon's Roar, and unlike most other known Dragon Slayers, Libra can apparently perform his Dragon's Roar without the need for particular preparations, something which makes it notably faster to use.
 * Lightning Dragon's Cold-Blooded Refraction (雷竜の冷血屈, Rairyū no Reiketsuku): A natural extension of the Cold-Blooded Flames, also known as Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic; Cold-Blooded Refraction enables Libra to absorb lightning into his body as energy, then release it in a more desirable direction. Redirecting lightning deals with the flow of energy in his body and turning an opponent's energy against them; when utilizing it, he must create a pathway from his fingertips, up his arm to his stomach, then up and out the other arm. The stomach is referred to as "the sea of magic", as it is the source of energy in the body. It is essential that the lightning pass through his stomach, as if the lightning passes through the heart, the effects could be fatal. Physical motions help focus the energy flow in the path through his body; this process is an intense, exhilarating, and terrifying experience; as he feels powerful containing massive amounts of energy, but he knows that he will die if he makes a single false move. Once he has fully performed the technique, Libra produces the lightning he had absorbed via the sea of magic from his fingertips in a short, quick blast—the process of which happens so fast that it seems as if Libra himself had fired the lightning, not his opponent. While extremely useful, Cold-Blooded Refraction is highly dangerous, and so, Libra only utilizes the spell when he cannot evade the opposing lightning strike. Lightning can be successfully redirected regardless of whether the source is natural or generated. The Cold-Blooded Refraction has been shown to work well for both natural and magic-generated lightning, and electricity conducted through metal.
 * Dragon Slayer's Secret Art: Crimson Lotus: Exploding Flame Blade (滅竜奥義・紅蓮・爆炎陣, Metsuryū Ōgi: Guren Bakuenjin): The strongest Fire Dragon Slayer Magic spell that Libra possesses; it is one of his Dragon Slayer's Secret Arts, the strongest techniques of a Dragon Slayer. In order to cast Crimson Lotus: Bursting Flame Array, Libra ignites his arms and generates long torrents of flames from them, before launching a powerful two-streamed blast of flames, which hits many times. It expands vertically as it moves away from Libra. As the blast moves away from him, opponents that come in contact with the vortex are knocked slightly to the side, and are thus forced to travel with it. Opponents that are in the center of the vortex are more easily trapped by it. Libra recoils slightly when he does the attack, but he is unaffected by gravity until the move ends, so it is mostly insignificant. The move is capable of hitting about 7.5 times a second, although this is unlikely due to the speed the blasts spin at and the knockback delivered. Despite being a powerful attack, it has one major flaw: if the opponents are far away from Libra, they can avoid the attack by jumping over it. However, it makes it up by inflicting damage on a wide range of multiple enemies and pushing them back quite some distance without allowing recovery, possibly even dragging opponents off the side. Along with its astounding destructive power, the attack has a delayed effect if the initial blast should fail, wherein the target will be blasted by residual effects left over by the volley of flames; absolutely obliterating the opponent. Not only is it five times as powerful, its energy is capable of withering the skin, muscle and tissue of any being of pure evil to a quivering mess. Not only was a dragon's body battered and broken after being hit by it, but it caused him intense muscle spasms, and even the place on their arm where Libra grabbed with his hand right before firing it was badly burned. This attack becomes far more powerful the later it's used- it is most useful when activated towards the end of a battle between high-level opponents, since the area will be saturated with excess energy from their attacks. It is a recycling of the magical energy just used and spread over the battlefield. Therefore, even though Libra has been exhausted from his magic, the ability can still be invoked.

Triple Element Dragon Mode
Lightning Shadow Flame Dragon Mode (モード雷影炎竜, Mōdo Raieienryū): Unlike other Dragon Slayers; Libra's Dual-Element Dragon Mode is completely out of the ordinary. Due to his natural mastery over his Fire Dragon Slayer Magic to the point that he can also utilize Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic; he already has two elements technically. However, after consuming the shadows of a Shadow Dragon Slayer, the flames and shadows within his body merged together; instead of creating a proper Dual-Element Dragon Mode, the lightning he can manifest through his fire mastery was added into the mixture—creating something never seen before; or since. This is a Triple-Element Dragon Mode; a power only available to Libra himself. When calling upon this unfathomable power, Libra combines the destructive abilities and properties of all three elements, burning, electrocuting, and piercing the target. It is also shown to have exceptional penetrative power. Additionally, while calling upon the Triple-Element Dragon Mode, Libra also gains the ability to transform his body into shadows, granting her a high level of adaptability. When exerting the full power of the Triple-Element Dragon Mode, Libra becomes wreathed in flames and lightning which extend to his hair and her eyes turn red; this form is triggered by strong bouts of anger, and when utilizing it, his entire hair glows white. Shadows engulf his body, shrouding him. Using this ability has been described as similar to using Dragon Force; only far more powerful. However, despite this ability normally placing a heavy strain on the body, to the point that even a single use would be capable of completely draining Libra of all of his energy; Libra has the ability to utilize it effortlessly.
 * Lightning Shadow Flame Dragon's Roar (雷影炎竜の咆哮, Raieienryū no Hōkō): An alternate, enhanced version of the Fire Dragon's Roar, performed only within the Triple-Element Dragon Mode. In order to performing this spell, Libra combines his fire and lightning with the newly gained shadows, gathering them within his mouth and subsequently releasing them towards the opponent. This generates an extremely large and destructive sparking blast, which produces an immense amount of light and is capable of traveling for great distances, wreaking havoc wherever it passes, as shown when it crossed the entire distance of a town, generating a large explosion. The attack emits a high-velocity beam with enough momentum to breach defenses. However, the damage dealt to the target without penetrating a defense is significantly reduced due to its lower energy transfer. It will pursue the enemy and surly hit. When used at its full potential, it carries a dangerous ability. While it continues to destroy everything around the attack, the designated opponent is surrounded by the energy of Lightning Shadow Flame Dragon's Roar when hit. This spell, in its most powerful iteration, can travel at a speed of 100000 mph (160934 km/h), and can reach temperatures approaching 28000 °C (60000 °F), hot enough to fuse soil or sand into glass channels. Libra's tremendous speed allows him to move faster than the technique itself, allowing him to fire multiple blasts from different directions.
 * Lightning Shadow Flame Dragon's Firing Hammer (雷影炎竜の撃鉄, Raieienryū no Gekitetsu): When performing Lightning Shadow Flame Dragon's Firing Hammer, Libra immerses shadows, flames, and electricity around both his fist and forearm and uses it to strike the target, to perform a devastating blow. It is infamous for destroying the minds of its victims—the technique is dealt with an uppercut, as Libra concentrates the electricity into his knuckles to literally destroy his opponent's mind; as he releases the magical energy outwards upon contact with the foe's body—the electricity messing with the electric signals in the foe's brain causes an odd interaction with the opponent's brain, causing them to receive numerous nightmarish illusions which are nigh-indistinguishable from reality, trapping them within these phantasms. Once caught within these illusions, the foe has increased difficulty in controlling their magical power and their perception of reality becomes somewhat blurred; drastically weakening and trapping the foe in an illusion nigh-indistinguishable from reality –followed by an instant death. In addition, the attack itself is capable of blowing the opponent away something fierce—it is strong enough to blow away most of the top floor of a large building with ease.
 * Dragon Slayer's Secret Art Revised: Crimson Lotus: Conviction of the Nine Realms of the Illuminating Shadowy Heavens (滅竜奥義・改・紅蓮・断罪の九土天影照, Metsuryū Ōgi Kai: Guren: Danzai no Kudōteneishō): Libra's absolute strongest attack; a power without equal sans the Full Throttle: Shining Onslaught of the Phoenix Knight. When performing this spell; Libra initiates this technique by bending his right arm backwards, the fist clenched, and extending frontwards a mildly bent left arm, tiny streaks of flame, lightning, and shadow gathering before the outstretched fingers from the surrounding area. Gathering and condensing stray elemental traces, Libra condenses them upon his hand, intensifying the magical energy by convergence and acceleration, before focusing it upon his hands, and thrusting his hand forward, unleashing the technique. The result is an assaulting barrage of deadly lightning bolts, bathed in black shadowy flames. The black flames can then spread from this spot, allowing Libra to further manipulate them, or to burn all enemy targets that may have invaded the initial assault. These flaming shadowy bolts lock-on to Libra's opponents no matter their position, chasing after them, and they can dodge obstacles in their way, unless it is not physically possible, never ceasing their hunt until they catch their prey; the bolts are capable of disturbing the fabric of space, seeming to spin like a razor as they compress and decompress due to their sheer speed and raw power. This attack embodies the idea that quantity has a quality all its own; the bolts released can be mentally stopped and pointed in another direction if the opponent dodges, drawing a beautiful geometric curtain of death, piercing the target and damaging them enormously. The curving aspect of this spell makes Libra's bolts miniature heat-seeking missiles, but instead of locking on to heat, they target whatever enemy they have; making it impossible to avoid or escape from—a certain hit is an inevitability, giving the opponents little to no chance to escape unless it is physically impossible to harm them or a serious obstruction is in the way. The technique covers any exposed darkness in light, and their range is vast and their attack power is massive, destroying half of Hargeon in the process. The technique is named after the Norse myth of there being nine realms that the various groups of beings inhabit.
