Secondary Magic: To Be Trained Later
Caster or Holder: Ancient, Caster Magic
Description: Said to have been mastered thousands of years ago, Demon Curse Seal Magic takes cues from Take Over Magic and Elemental Magic. By agreeing to a deal with a demon, the user then not only gains the demon's special abilities, but a Curse Seal Mode that increases their stats such as strength, speed, and agility. This is the magic's major drawback along with the great mood change the user has, almost becoming as menacing as the demon itself.
After going on a mission in a graveyard, Nagato encountered the great demon Kuropansa, literally meaning Black Panther. The demon spoke to the mage, telling of it's great power that could easily be Nagato's. Through training and discovery, Nagato very well could become as powerful as the demon itself. Despite no longer being overrun by hatred, he agreed to learning the demon's spells as they contained great lightning abilities. Nagato's spells tend to have a mixture of offensive and defensive attributes. Despite the power the magic it holds, he tends to rely on his weapon and hand-to-hand combat ability because of the mood change he has while in Curse Seal mode.
Strengths:
- Curse Seal modes increase stats such as strength, speed, and agility by around 25%.
- Black Lightning is shown to be highly powerful in water, while also being able to pierce many things.
- Spells are activated fast, drastically changing the tempo of battle.
Weaknesses:
- Iron can not only conduct lightning, but redirect it back at Nagato.
- Earth not only can negate lightning, but cannot be pierced by the latter.
- Curse Seal Mode is shown to demonise and corrupt the user, making it a last resort technique.
- Despite the magic being a 'special' demon lightning technique it can still be consumed by Slayer Mages.
Unique Abilities:
- Electrical Endurance: Because of his body always feeling with lightning elements, Nagato's body itself contains a resistance to lightning based spells. As a C-Rank, D-Rank lightning spells are decreased in power by 50%, while C-Rank lightning spells are decreased in power by 25%.
- Lightning Nerve Infusion: It is a time-limit hyper-nerve technique that, by infusing the user's nerve endings with electricity, can rapidly increase their motor abilities, resulting in an phenomenal increase in speed in both the user's movements and reactions. Nagato's speed is 25% higher of a regular C-Rank Mage.
- Lightning Teleportation: By turning his body into that of a lightning bolt, Nagato moves at a speed that can highly be seen as teleportation. This teleportation technique can be used for transportation, and now as Nagato is C-Rank, can be used to dodge C-Rank or lower attacks up to 5 times a thread, for a MP cost of 5%.
- Kuropansa's Aura: As Nagato has become more familiar with his magic and the demon Kuropansa, he has access to more of it's powers. Up to 5 times a thread for a MP cost of 5%, Nagato can use parts of Kuropansa's body made out of aura to shield him from attacks, magical or physical. For instance, if a C-Rank or lower blast is shot at him, he can create Kuropansa's ribs out of aura as a way to shield it. This can only work on C-Rank or lower spells however. It would only withstand one C-Rank spell, anything higher would break through it completely. Two or more C-Rank's will also overpower it.
Lineage:

Description: A weathered old monk once had the ability to communicate with spirits. These spirits granted him their abilities, linking with the monk, covering him in a misty white aura, allowing him access to a greater power. The spirits that linked with the monk we’re one of an insane berserker, a warrior with a legendary shield, and a dragon. During a great war, the monk fought for his country, and was supposedly killed in action.

His whole body becomes a dark, sizzling red color, as if it was scorched by lightning. His eyes just become blue, lacking in pupils. He no longer has normal ears, but two panther ears that stick up.

Rank: C-Rank
Type: Offensive/Defensive
Duration: Instant

Description: By releasing Black Lightning energy in every direction, an electrical discharge flows from Nagato's entire body allowing him to affect multiple enemies. When using this attack on a great number of enemies at once, it can effectively double as an instant defence.

After experiencing D-Rank damage, said are is paralyzed for 2 posts, making it unable to be used by the mage. However, the affected are is not very large. The electrical currents do not reach organs, so a hit to the throat or neck cannot kill someone.
