Hadō #73. Sōren Sōkatsui (双蓮蒼火墜, Twin Lotus Blue Fire, Crash Down; Viz "Twin Lotuses, Pale Fire Crash") is a Kidō spell.
Description[]
An advanced form of Hadō #33. Sōkatsui, it has twice the effectiveness.[1] Generating blue energy with their index and middle fingers, the practitioner makes a pushing motion with both of his/her palms to push the gathered energy toward the target in a concentrated blast. It is essentially a doubled version of Sōkatsui because the user fires two bursts of blue energy with much greater potency than the single shot variety.[2]
Incantation[]
"Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! On the wall of blue flame, inscribe a twin lotus. In the abyss of conflagration, wait at the far heavens."
"血肉の仮面・万象・羽搏き ヒトの名を冠す者よ 蒼火の壁に双蓮を刻む 大火の淵を遠天にて待つ"
"Chiniku no kamen, banshō, habataki, hito no na o kansu mono yo. Sōka no kabe ni sōren o kizamu, taika no fuchi o enten ni te matsu."[3]
