Origin Bullets

Origin Bullets, a Conceptual Weapon.

Conceptual Weapons (概念武装, Gainen Busō?) are magical items that often have an accumulated history and cause more than physical interference as they execute a certain built-in Concept (概念, Gainen?), a predetermined phenomenon.[1]

Nature[]

There are a variety of Concepts that Conceptual Weapons can enforce, including "the negation of immortality with the concept of a natural life", "severing and binding", and "absolute defense against thrown weapons." Some are made to directly crush the soul with a Concept. Formless things such as Nature Spirits or Daemons are unable to be affected by physical interference, but Conceptual Weapons are able to damage them because beings born from Concepts can only be killed by Concepts.[2]

    Conceptual Weapon [Term]
    A weapon created to go beyond mere physical interference, and exert influence on concepts, natural providence, and space.
    For instance, something that nullifies "eternal youth" by overwriting it with the idea of "natural lifespan".
    Ciel's Seventh Holy Scripture contains the dual concepts of "reincarnation criticism" and "eternity without permanence".
    By the way, after being killed by Shiki, Arcueid had at first mistakenly assumed that he must possess some kind of powerful conceptual armament.

    Q: Conceptual Weapons are soul smashers that beat the opponent not physically but with the weight of the soul, but would it be possible to kill only the soul of a normal person, rather than something supernatural?

    Q: Conceptual Weapons are fixed magical items which execute a predetermined phenomenon. They're soul smashers ("outbreakers") that beat the opponent not physically but with the weight of the soul, but would it be possible to kill only the soul of a normal person, rather than something supernatural?

    A: Yes, but the effect would be reduced. Or rather, against a mundane opponent, mere physical attacks would suffice. Physical interference is not possible against formless things, such as manifestations of laws or delusions. That's why Conceptual Weapons exist, because beings that exist via concepts can only be killed by concepts.

    Q:概念武装とは、決められた事柄を実行する、固定化された魔術品。物理的にではなく、魂魄としての重みで相手を打ち倒する魂砕き(アウトブレイカー)とのことですが、これは”魔”に対してだけではなく、通常の人も概念武装で魂だけを殺すことは可能なのでしょうか?

    A:できますが、効果は下がります。というか、通常の相手ならさっくり物理攻撃で事足りますし。形のないモノ―――規律の具現、妄念の具現などに物理干渉はできません。だからこその概念武装なのです。概念に生きるものは概念によって滅ぼされるのですから。
