Description

Personality

Motoharu is a cunning and deceptive individual, a master of trickery and lies, often betraying those around him if it benefits his goals. This pragmatic approach to life has allowed him to survive as a multi-organizational spy, navigating the treacherous world of magic and science. Despite his serious and often ruthless professional life, he enjoys his time as a high school student, maintaining a friendly relationship with Touma and their classmates. However, his devotion to his stepsister, Maika, is unwavering; he is fiercely protective of her and deeply cares for her well-being, a stark contrast to his manipulative nature in other aspects of his life. This devotion is the driving force behind many of his actions, even if it means putting himself in danger.

Abilities

* **Onmyoudou:** A skilled magician proficient in Onmyoudou, utilizing origami-based shikigami in his spells. He's shown to use spells involving the four guardian deities (Genbu, Byakko, Seiryu, Suzaku), each associated with a color, direction, element, and season. He can create powerful long-range attacks (Shikigami Pistol) and defensive barriers. He is also skilled in divination and location tracking spells using magic circles and colored paper. He has also used a reconstructed variant of the Ushi no Koku Mairi curse. * **Auto-Rebirth (Body Regeneration):** A Level 0 esper ability allowing him to rapidly heal from life-threatening injuries, enabling him to use magic despite the risks involved for esper/magician hybrids. While effective, it's not perfect and has limitations. * **Hand-to-Hand Combat:** A highly skilled and ruthless hand-to-hand fighter, easily defeating opponents like Touma. He uses a style incorporating illegal techniques from various martial arts. * **Firearms Proficiency:** Competent in using firearms, compensating for his limitations in magic and esper abilities in certain missions. He demonstrates excellent marksmanship and tactical awareness. * **Deception and Manipulation:** A master of deception and manipulation, able to infiltrate and maintain his position within multiple organizations without arousing suspicion.
