Soul Protect (ソウルプロテクト, Souru Purotekuto) is a high-level spell used by witches to counter the meister technique, soul perception.[2][1]

History[]

Some time after the emergence of humans developing the Soul Perception technique, witches in the Witch Order developed the magic technique in order to counter the effects of it.[3]

Overview[]

Used by certain witches, this spell allows witches to use magic in order to camouflage their souls, cutting off their wavelength in the process in order to appear as normal, human souls. This magical technique is able to fool even a grim reaper's ability to judge souls.[4][5] However, an individual is unable to use any of their innate magic while under the spell's effect.[6]

Due to the nature of the spell's ability to shut off specific wavelengths, it can also be used to end a clown's infinite propagation abilities with another specialized spell.[7]

Weaknesses[]

Although soul protect is difficult to pierce, there's only two known ways:

  • It was speculated by Sid Barrett that a technique capable of piercing soul protect was possible, though it required one to become a kishin for the possibility to be there.[8]
  • Individuals with super soul perception are capable of seeing through a witch's soul protect.[9]
