Magic Name: Akaito Contract
Magic Type: Summons (can have up to 4 summons out at once)
Description:
Aoi and Aoba are originally life forms from another world who found themselves somehow stranded in Earthland. As a result, they are incapable of storing ethernanos within them from the air and cannot use normal magic like your average mage. Even typical holder magic requires ethernanos running through a person's body, with at least an unlocked first origin to perform it. Seeing as the twins do not possess any origins at all, they instead perform contracts with spirits through a tsukumogami that contains parts of their original alien form within it. This tsukumogami was once a scarf made of red thread, one that reached its 100th birthday on the day the twins appeared in Earthland. In the beginning, the siblings were actually only one otherworldly being, but ended up being split by the pressures and energies of the world into a pair of unwitting pre-school students, consuming their first origins and taking the ethernanos already in them for themselves. Realizing quickly that they would need magic to survive, they took the tiny bit of ethernanos remaining in them that they hadn't eaten, and sent a bit of themselves into the scarf so when it animated into a tsukumogami, they could tie its soul firmly into their beings.
This tsukumogami was incarnated as a teenaged girl known as the "The Red Weaver" with the ability to use the red threads of the scarf in order to bind connections and forge contracts with other tsukumogami, lost spirits, or simply people with a desperate wish to fulfill, one so desperate they were willing to give up their souls for it. Each spirit who signs a contract with the twins will have their soul forged into an item or some sort of mark that the twins can carry around on their persons as the "key" in celestial summons. Basically, they own the souls of their spirits, and can call them to their side at any moment through the "key". In return for becoming basically a slave to their will, the twins will grant a wish for them, which is what is written in the contract before it is used to bind the spirits to the twins.
Each spirit receives a new name then, based on the abilities gained through the wish they made. In Aoi and Aoba's collection of spirits, each name ends with the suffix "no". When speaking with the spirits, they themselves are addressed as "Yuno" and "Rino". While the spirits can spend their free time doing whatever they wish to do, they are forced to come whenever called, and can receive terrible punishments if they hurt or disobey their keepers in any way.
Strengths:
- The keepers technically do not have to fight at all with the usage of these spirits, as they can basically do all the work for them.
- The keepers only have to fulfill one wish for them in return for an eternity of servitude, which is a pretty sweet deal.
- This magic allows for the usage of many different elements and abilities with the range of spirits.
Weaknesses:
- While the spirits have to obey the keepers, they can cause great harm to them as well. They are the closest to the keepers, which gives them the highest chance of harming them if the keepers loosen their watch and control over them for a long enough amount of time.
- The magic is controlled not by them, but by a tsukumogami. She does have thoughts and goals of her own, which is lead to consequences for the keepers.
- The more spirits are contracted, the more the keepers have to keep track of and control over, which can lead to difficulty in concentration.
- As this is a holder magic in the absolute sense of the concept, they lose any way of possibly summoning a spirit if their item disappears, and lose all control over the magic if Akano’s scarf is lost.

Downside: Essentially useless in statistical terms, Akano exists for the sole purpose of binding and controlling spirits, more like an assistant than anything.
Description: Akano was a tsukumogami who was unfortunate enough to come to life on the day that Aoi and Aoba arrived on Earthland. Instantly taking control of her and using her as a way to utilize magic, she was the very first spirit and the leader of all the rest to come.- Active \\ Akaito Contract:
- Name: Akaito Contract (plot ability)
Rank: C
Type: Contract
Duration:2
Description: This ability is the most essential spell to the entire magic, seeing as this is the spell that allows spirits to become bound to Aoi and Aoba.

Description: Maino is a swordswoman, using a variety of different swords in order to attack and defend. Her attacks are generally fast and efficient, getting things done quickly, and usually at close range. She's a go-to summon whenever you need an attack done fast. Compared to the other spirits, Maino is particularly emotional, and as such has to be concentrated on in order to get her attacks to hit properly. This means that no other spells or active abilities can be active while she is summoned.- Passive \\ Swordsman's Honor:

Often accompanying caravans and whatnot, she learned luck-based magic to improve the client's chances of crossing safely with all goods intact. Able to offer a wide array of buffs and effects to support the user, she is a fantastic tool of support in battle. However, due to her contract, Yoshino is similar to Suzuno in that she can take on different owners as she pleases. As a result, there is the possibility she could betray the keepers.- Passive \\ Charm of Power:

Range: 30 meters
Speed: 30 meters per second
Duration: 5
Description: Hayano was a member of a tribe of partially avian mages, being able to shapeshift into a falcon. She did not willingly come and let the twins take her - instead, they had chosen her sister to kill in order to take her ethernanos supply. Having caught them in the act, she begged them to stop without avail before she offered a switch, arguing that her magical abilities were far superior than what they would gain from draining her far weaker sister. After the contract was signed, Hayano joined their collection of spirits as mainly a scout.- Passive \\ Falcon's Wings:
- Name: Falcon’s Wings

Type: Passive

Description: Takuno was a healer in his village before he decided to leave forever, and he remains a healer for his keepers and their spirits. Healing and revitalizing his allies is his main task, and there's not much more he does. Seeing as he left his village very voluntarily, and joined up with Aoi and Aoba easily despite the harsh requirements, he is no doubt the easiest of the spirits to control and barely requires any concentration due to his mild nature. He cannot deal any damage.- Passive \\ My Only Sunshine:

As a result, her spirit, full of resent towards her predicament and shameful death wreaked havoc upon her assassin and her father’s enemies, becoming the key to her father’s kingdom’s success in conquering their foes. However, after time, they did end up collapsing, and the spirit went on to sign up with vengeful summoners, helping them reach their goals towards deadly and efficient fighting tactics. She would sign a contract with Aoi and Aoba in return for being able to continue slaying opponents in her furious manner.- Passive \\ Leader's Senses:
- Name: Leader's Senses
Rank: C+

Type: Normal Summon; Effects
Damage: 18 HP
Requip/Summon HP: 150 HP
Range: 45 meters
Speed: 45 meters per second
Duration: 6
Description: Suzuno is a different case to all the other spirits, due to the fact that she is bound to and owned by multiple people. She has been a spirit for an extremely long time - no one knows for sure how long, and cannot be wholly bound to one person. As such, she is capable of refusing commands if it goes against one of her other masters, and would be able to handicap or even kill her keepers if another keeper commands it. However, she is also a lethal power that adds invaluable skills to any summon mage's inventory, especially ones as new as these two. Suzuno specializes in effects and poisons, spells that will leave a person stunned or asleep, or ones that cause immense pain or handicap for a prolonged period of time. With stronger mages, she is also capable of spells that can cause instant death or permanent injury. However, she is also incapable of bringing benefit to anyone. In other words, she can only attack. She cannot defend, heal, or apply useful effects to the caster.- Passive \\ The Sound of Silence:
- Name: The Sound of Silence
Rank: C+
Type: Passive
Description: Whenever she appears, Suzuno triggers the ringing of her object, the bell that allows her to utilize all her abilities. This ringing causes Suzuno to be completely silent when summoned. In addition to being completely silent, it is impossible to see her until she attacks you in some form, or wishes for you to see her. In this state, spell damage of the user is increased by 75%.
- Active \\ The Sound of Fear:
- Name: The Sound of Fear
Rank: C+
Type: Area of Effect; Instant
Duration: 1
Description: Suzuno is able to ring her bell in a certain pattern, causing an illusion of fear to enter the mind of the victim. This will cause paralysis, rendering any opponents within 45 meters incapable of movement for one post, as well as dealing them 90HP in damage. This spell cannot be cast two posts in a row.
