[Author's Note]
I'll be posting the next chapter soon; in the meantime, here are some facts about Kenichi and Kirara, along with a few images.
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
▪︎Human: This is Kenichi's appearance after receiving the Hanma lineage; no matter how many lineages he receives in the future as a reward, this will always be his base form. His appearance is inspired by Kuroo Tetsuro, a supporting character from the anime Haikyuu.
▪︎Hanma Demon Face: This is the form that the Demon Face of the Hanma bloodline will take. When Kenichi awakens it, he will gain a massive boost to all his physical abilities.
▪︎Abilities of the Inu no Daiyōkai:
1.- Vast Amount of Youki: Members of this race possess an immense amount of yōki from the moment of birth (a Youkai's yōki also increases through the absorption of other yōkai, the use of sacred or demonic artifacts, training and maturity, or by committing acts of great wickedness).
2.- Superhuman physical abilities: As a yōkai of the highest class, all his physical abilities are far superior to those of any human (although, despite this, his combat skills are more focused on swordsmanship).
3.- Enhanced senses of smell and hearing: As a dog-type yōkai, he has highly developed senses that allow him to assess situations based on scents carried by the wind. Even with distant events, he can discern what is happening and gather information using only his sense of smell.
4.- Accelerated Healing: He can use yōki to heal wounds at great speed (he can also regenerate lost limbs, though this takes longer).
5.- Sankon Tessō (Claws of Steel): The Inu no Daiyōkai's claws are extremely sharp and resilient. By using yōki to enhance them, he is able to unleash an attack capable of tearing through the bodies of yōkai with little effort.
6.- Hijin Kessō (Flying Blade Blood Claws): By coating his claws with his own blood and enhancing them with yōki, he can launch a slashing attack made of solidified blood from a great distance.
7.- Poison Creation: The Inu no Daiyōkai has a strong affinity for poison; therefore, he can create an extremely lethal type of poison through various parts of his body (fangs, claws, breath, blood, etc).
8.- Hikari no Muchi (Whip of Light): A thin thread of energy, similar to a whip, which emanates from the fingertips and is used primarily for attack.
9.- Longevity: As of yet, the upper limit of the Inu no Daiyōkai's lifespan is unknown (Tōga lived for over 3,000 years and still looked quite young, so it can be assumed that they can live for a very long time).
10.- Flight: They can fly in both forms without needing to use yōki.
11.- Transformation: The Inu no Daiyōkai has two forms: its original form, that of a giant demon dog, and its hybrid form, which is quite similar to that of a human, but with some features of its original form (Kenichi, being a perfect hanyō—100% human and 100% yōkai—can remain in his human form while transforming certain parts of his body, or he can adopt a hybrid form similar to that of Inuyasha, Sesshomaru, and Tōga).
12.- Orb of Light: This is a special ability possessed by the Inu no Daiyōkai that allows him to transform into an orb of light; when he takes this form, he is able to fly at a great speed.
13.- Teleportation: When he transforms into his orb of light form, he is able to teleport (this consumes a great deal of yōki, and he cannot teleport over long distances).
14.- Immunity to Cold: He can withstand low temperatures and is unaffected by freezing cold.
15.- Spiritual Vision: This is a unique visual ability of the Inu no Daiyōkai that allows him to see the spirit of the Mill of Time, Akuru.
16.- Demonic Energy Barriers: Although Inuyasha and Sesshomaru were never seen using barriers, Tōga placed a powerful barrier around Tessaiga that functions primarily as a system of repulsion and purification.
17.- Innate Ability to Wield Swords: The Inu no Daiyōkai is a being deeply connected to the concept of the sword; this is why he possesses the ability to wield any sword with mastery.
18.- Creation of Special Swords: This is the Inu no Daiyōkai's most powerful ability; it allows him to create a type of sword with special powers using a part of his body, such as his claws, fangs, or limbs (this is an ability normally possessed only by pure-blooded Inu no Daiyōkai, but Kenichi is an exception, so in the future, he will also be able to create his own sword).
▪︎Hanyō Form V1: This is an appearance that Kenichi takes on by using the Inu no Daiyōkai's transformation ability. When he assumes this form, he can utilize yōki more naturally and precisely; furthermore, he gains a significant boost to all his physical abilities.
▪︎Hanyō Form V2: This is a variation of the previous form; the only difference is that, in this form, Kenichi uses the power of the Hero's Clan to materialize spiritual armor.
▪︎Inu no Daiyōkai: This is the true form of the Inu no Daiyōkai. Kenichi's version is quite similar to Sesshomaru's, but because he has a deeper connection with Tōga, his form is much larger (he can grow or shrink at will).
▪︎Inu no Daiyōkai Hybrid Mode: This is a unique transformation of Kenichi's that is only possible because he is a perfect hanyō (100% human and 100% yōkai). When he assumes this transformation, all the raw power of his Inu no Daiyōkai form is condensed into a humanoid form with bestial features, enabling him to unleash large-scale destructive attacks (because this form relies on Kenichi's physical capabilities as a human and consumes vast amounts of yōki, it can only be used for a short period of time).
▪︎Hero Form: Members of the Heros' Clan have the ability to manifest spiritual armor on their bodies by connecting with their divine or demonic weapons. As the hero synchronizes their power more closely with the weapon, the armor covers a greater part of their body and unleashes its true potential. In Kenichi's case, his armor is still incomplete, but he is able to manifest certain parts (unlike the armor of other characters, Kenichi's is similar to that of a samurai).
▪︎Fire Devil Slayer Magic: Is a special form of magic from the world of Fairy Tail that allows Kenichi to cast purple fire spells that are extremely damaging to demons. After he acquired it, a mark resembling a tattoo appeared on Kenichi's left arm.

▪︎Kirara's abilities:
1.- Transformation: Kirara has two forms: her original form, which resembles a small cat, and her transformed form, which resembles a sabre-toothed tiger.
2.- Flight: When she transforms, she gains the ability to fly.
3.- Fire Resistance: Due to her strong affinity with the element of fire, she possesses a high resistance to high temperatures.
4.- Superhuman Physical Abilities: Like most supernatural beings, she possesses physical abilities far superior to those of humans.
5.- Spiritual Rest: This is a special ability granted by the Achievement System that allows her to recover her yōki or heal at a faster rate while resting within Kenichi's soul.
6.- Flamethrower: This is a signature move of Fire-type Pokémon that allows them to expel fire from their mouths to inflict burn damage on their opponents.
7.- Flame Charge: A signature move of Fire-type Pokémon that involves concentrating fiery energy around the body; once the charge is complete, the user can launch itself forward at high speed, inflicting burn damage on opponents.
▪︎Mega Evolution: This is a special evolutionary ability from the world of Pokémon. It will be available in the future; for now, I'll just include an image.
