“Songs can even draw the moon down from heaven”. The words that enact the supernatural phenomena of magic. Not a keyword that ‘activates’ supernatural power, but in itself holding the power and “soul” of words.
Recovery. Very basic healing magic. Effective on bruises, sprains, scratches, and cuts, and depending on caster’s ability, scorches and frostbite. Cannot treat damage from powerful offensive magic.
汝が為にユピテル王の恩寵あれ。
Tui gratia Jovis gratia sit.
“The grace of Jupiter to you.”
Dispulso
解除
Cancel. Disperses the supernatural phenomena emitted by magic. A paradoxical “magic that disperses magic” that does not allow exceptions, regardless of the skill of the mage.
A required study in mid-level magic at magical academies. Magic Cancel is the most irrevocable, constant expansion of this spell.
Emittam
解放
Release. General “release” keyword for delayed spells.
Lux
光よ
“Light”. Emits bright light. Can have a stunning effect.
Sagitta Magica

Other Spells
(Under construction.)
Flame
Destructive spells by nature.
Calefaciens Exarmatio
熱波・武装解除
Heat Wave Disarmament. Heats and vaporises the target’s equipment. Naturally, this will not work on metallic and earthenware objects, so at the same time, it applies heat-resistance magic to avoid direct damage to the target’s flesh. A complicated spell.
Captus Flammeus
紫炎の捕らえ手
Violet Fiery Capturing Hand. Capture spell that creates a cylindrical pillar of flame around the target. Being non-offensive, the fire won’t burn – staying still, will at most feel like a sauna – and is kept in place by a magic boundary, which also resists outside magic. The heat of the flame is still enough to hinder blood circulation in the brain, leading to hyperthermia.
Also, a model alliterative incantation – “Ex ex- ex-”, “in- in- ig-”.
目醒め現れよ、燃え出づる火蜥蜴、火を以てして敵を覆わん。
Ex somno exsistat exurens Salamandra inimicum involvat igne.
“Awaken and appear now, the fiery salamander, cover the enemy with fire.”
Flagrantia Rubicans
紅き焔
Red Blaze. Mid-level destruction spell that creates an intense flame on the targeted area, even on water or in vacuum.
ものみな焼き尽くす浄化の炎、破壊の王にして再生の徴よ、我が手に宿りて、敵を喰らえ。
Omne flammans flamma purgatus, domine extinctionis et signum regenerationis, in mea manu ens inimicum edat.
“The flame of purification that burns all, lord of destruction and mark of rebirth, reside in my hand and devour my enemy.”
Incendium Gehennae
奈落の業火
Hellfire of Purgatory. In reference to Gehinom, the understanding of “Hell” in the Vulgate New Testiment. Information pending (has never been used stand-alone).
来れ、深淵の闇、燃え盛る大剣、闇と影と憎悪と破壊、復讐の大焔。我を焼け彼を焼け、そはただ焼き尽くす者。
Agite, tenebrae abyssi, ensis incendens, et incendium caliginis umbrae inimicitiae destrunctionis ultionis. Incendant et me et eum, sint solum incendentes.
“Come, darkness of the abyss, the blazing greatsword, darkness and shadow and hatred and destruction, the flame of vengeance. Burning me and burning them, it is simply that which burns everything to cinders.”
Flower
May mean plants in general. Probably related to the Earth element.
Veris Tempestas Florens
春の嵐
The Storm of Spring. Wide-area hypnotic spell that causes targets to lose consciousness on contact. A spell for military usage.
来れ地の精、花の精、夢誘う花纏いて蒼空の下、駆け抜けよ、一陣の嵐。
Veniant, spiritus terreteres florentes, cum flore somniali sub caelo percurrant una tempestas.
“Come, spirits of earth and bloom. Accompanied by the enchanting flowers under the green sky comes a storm.”
Gravity
A powerful branch of magic with many possible applications. Essentially, it’s the ability to distort (curve) space-time by manipulating gravity. Specifically, Albiero increases mass, naturally collapsing objects into micro-black holes.
The natural enemy of ‘bounded field’ type magic, due to the large difference in energy requirement between “generating a black hole” and “attempting to maintain a personal dimension which now contains a black hole, breaking all physical laws of the bounded space”.
Great Dimension Breaker. Rakan’s on-the-spot spell that can warp and shatter the fourth dimension, copied from Albiero.
(Apparently they were trapped in a similar situation before, and Al got them out.)
Ice
Cold-based spells. Freezing and soldifying.
Crystallizatio Tellustris
凍る大地
Frozen Earth. Attack spell that shoots a giant icicle from the ground. Can freeze the body of the target to the ground, disabling movement. An aggressive magic to obstruct flight.
来たれ氷精、大気に満ちよ。白夜の国の凍土と氷河を。
Veniant spiritus glaciales, extendantur aeri tundram et glaciem loci noctis albae.
“Come spirits of ice, filll the atmosphere. Become the frozen soil and the glacier of the arctic night.”
Ensis Exsequens
断罪の剣
Sword of Conviction, AKA Executioner Sword. Attack spell that forcibly causes phase change in solids and liquids, turning them into gas, essentially vaporising any substance (including life-forms) in contact with the ‘blade’. Extremely destructive within its effective range.
The vaporisation is not caused by an increase, but rather a radical decrease in temperature. Therefore, even if the initial forced phase change was avoided, the target will be exposed to the extreme cold wave, making this a two-fold, highly lethal attack.
Dissimilar to most cold-based spells, which generally work by freezing and solidifying the target.
(Akamatsu doesn’t elaborate on how Negi’s earlier version was ‘Imperfect’ except “his unstable control of energy flow”.)
Frigerans Exarmatio
氷結・武装解除
Freezing Disarmament. Freezes and shatters the equipment attached to the target while avoiding direct damage to their body. Requires skilled manipulation of energy. Cannot destroy metallic or other hard material – the most it’ll do is fly off.
Jaculatio Grandinis
氷槍弾雨
Hail of Spears. Summons and shoots down dense packs of ice spikes. Individually, each warhead is more powerful than regular ice projectiles; however, because it takes the form of spears, the practical applications of this spell is limited by ballistics.
Nivis Casus
氷爆
Ice Burst. Instantaneously creates a large-volume sphere of ice in mid-air, which collapses downwards like an avalanche (hence “nivis casus”).
Nivis Tempestas Obscurans
闇の吹雪
Snowstorm of Darkness. Attack spell combining snow and darkness into a directed tornado-like attack.
来たれ氷精、闇の精。闇を従え吹けよ常夜の氷雪。
Veniant spiritus glaciales obscurantes, cum obscurationi flet tempestas nivalis.
“Come, spirits of ice and darkness. Attended by the darkness blows forth an endless night of ice and snow.”
Lightning
As the spells are electric in nature, they all have a stunning (“taser-like”) effect on contact.
Fulguratio Albicans
白き雷
White Lightning. Destruction spell that emits an intense electric attack from the caster’s hand. Ineffective against constructs, but very powerful against living beings.
闇夜切り裂く一条の光、我が手に宿りて、敵を喰らえ。
Unus fulgor concidens noctem, in mea manu ens inimicum edat.
“Bolt of light which cleaves the dark night, reside in my hand and devour the enemy.”
Jaculatio Fulgoris
雷の投擲
Thrown Lightning. Summons and shoots down electrified spears. The thrown “warheads,” not being arrows, are more powerful than normal lightning projectile attacks and physically very destructive. However, as it takes the form of spears, it is easier to avoid compared to a more direct attack like Fulguratio Albicans.
The incantation is a reference to the cursed spear Gae Bolg.
影の地統ぶる者、スカサハの、我が手に授けん三十の棘もつ霊しき槍を。
Locos umbrae regnans, Scathach, in manum meam det jaculum daemonum cum spinis triginta.
“Ruler of the land of shadows, Scathach, grant into my hand your thirty-barbed demonic spear.”
Jovis Tempestas Fulguriens
雷の暴風
Gale of Lightning. Attack spell combining wind and lightning into a directed tornado-like attack. Named after Jupiter, one of the Roman Gods – “the thunderstorm of Jupiter.”
来たれ雷精、風の精。雷を纏いて吹けよ南洋の嵐。
Veniant spiritus aeriales fulgurientes, cum fulgurationi flet tempestas austrina.
“Come, spirits of lightning and wind. Entwined with lightning blows forth a storm of the southern seas.”
Shadow
Giving shadows a physical form, using shadows in general. Fairly obscure branch of magic, as far as has been shown.
Centum Lanceae Umbrae
百の影槍
Hundred Shadow Spears. Attack spell using physical spear-shaped shadows to break through magic barriers.
Nocturna Nigredinis
黒衣の夜想曲
Black Cloth Nocturne. The most powerful close-combat technique in Shadow magic: a physical shadow familiar that surrounds the caster, allowing both absolute, automated defense and offense at close range.
Once the familiar is summoned, the mage will no longer require the protection of the Attendant.
Water Spirit Great Waterfall, creates a large-volume pillar of water (enough to fill a watering hole or somesuch). Due to the height it’s dropped from, and the large mass and potential energy, it can be very destructive.
Undans Paries Aquarius
水流障壁
Water Current Barrier, water variant of Undans Paries Aerialis. Aside from the same protective properties, it’s particularly effective against heat and drought.
Vinctus Aquarius
流水の縛り手
The Flowing Binding Hand. Capture spell that creates a pillar of water around the target. Could cause deprivation of oxygen.
Also, a model alliterative incantation – “Ex, ex-, ex-”, “in- im- in-”.
目醒め現れ 、浪立つる水妖、水床に敵を沈めん。
Ex somno exsistat exudans Undina inimicum immergat in alveum.
“Let the wave-borne undine awaken and appear now, submerging the enemy into the depths.”
Wind
‘Air’ and ‘Wind’ seem to be interchangeable.
Generally support spells with no direct damage-dealing capabilities.
Flans Carcer Venti Vertentis
風花旋風・風牢壁
Windflower Whirlwind, Prison of Wind. Creates a tornado to trap the target in the eye, who will remained unharmed so long as an escape is not attempted.
逆巻け春の嵐、彼の者等に竜巻く牢獄を。
Vertatur tempestas aestiva, illis carcarem circumvertentem.
“Surging storm of spring, give them a tornado prison.”
Flans Exarmatio
風花・武装解除
Windflower Disarmament. Blows away the target’s equipment with a strong wind, and turns cloth or other soft material into flowers. Obviously, as a Disarm spell, the wind will never be strong enough to lift someone off their feet.
High-level spell with the highest frequency of usage. Negi’s sneezing discharges this by default.
Flans Paries Aerialis
風花・風陣壁
Windflower, Barrier of Wind. A magical shield surrounding the caster as protection against physical damage. Strong enough to stop a 10-ton truck.
Flans Paries Venti Vertentis
風花旋風・風障壁
Windflower Whirlwind, Barrier of Wind. Creates a tornado lasting several minutes. Those in the eye will be protected from outside elements by the intense air currents.
逆巻け春の嵐、我らに風の加護を。
Vertatur tempestas veris. Nobis protectionem aerialem.
“Surging storm of spring, give us the protection of the wind.”
Flans Saltatio Pulverea
風花・風塵乱舞
Windflower, Boisterous Dancing Dust. Creates a strong gust.
吹け、一陣の風。
Flet, una vente.
“Blow forth, one gust of wind.”
Limes Aeriales
風陣結界
Boundary Field of Wind. A magical barrier that uses air currents to deflect attacks using air as a medium (fire, wind, gas, pressure, sound). A basic magic that will not hold up against solid bodies with larger volumes and potential energy.
大気の精よ、息づく風よ、疾く来りて我が敵より我を守れ。
Elementa aerialia, venti spirantes, cito adeuntes ab inimicis meis me defendant.
“Spirits of the atmosphere, the breathing wind, come quickly, protect us from our enemies.”
Nebula Hypnotica
眠りの霧
Mist of Sleep. Creates a fog that on contact renders the target unconscious.
大気よ、水よ、白霧となれ、彼の者等に一時の安息を。
Aer et aqua, facti illis somnum brevem.
“Air, and water, become a white mist, give them a moment of rest.”
