Notable Attacks/Techniques:
*World Tree Magic 「世界樹魔法 Seikaiju Mahō」: William uses this magic attribute to generate and manipulate world trees. The branches and roots of these world trees are excellent for binding, allowing the user to capture enemies and stop enemy attacks by grabbing them mid air. This magic is also capable of absorbing the mana from others in order to create trees as large as a city. This magic and Dark Magic are the two attributes that are required for the Tree of Qliphoth to grow.
**World Tree Magic: Magic Tree Descent「世界樹魔法『魔樹降臨』Seikaiju Mahō: "Maju Kōrin"」: William calls forth the roots of a giant tree from the clouds overhead. From these roots, he can craft a multitude of wooden objects, including broomsticks.
**World Tree Magic: Great Tree Misteltein「世界樹魔法『ミスティルテインの大樹』 Seikaiju Mahō: "Misutirutein no Taiju"」: William spreads roots over a wide area. These roots absorb the mana of everyone within the area. Once enough mana is absorbed, he creates a large tree that can capture the enemy and engulf a city.
**World Tree Magic: Magic Warding Ash 「世界樹魔法『魔守のトリネコ』 Seikaiju Mahō: "Mamori no Torineko"」: William creates a giant ash tree and directs branches from it to wrap around and block spells.
**World Tree Magic: Misteltein Seed 「世界樹魔法『ミスティルテインの種』 Seikaiju Mahō "Misutirutein no Tane"」: William throws a seed at the target. The seed drains the target's magic and rapidly grows into a large tree around the target, immobilizing them.
**World Tree Magic: Dracaena Formation 「世界樹魔法『ドラセナの方陣』 "Seikaiju Mahō "Dorasena no Hōjin"」: William touches his hand to the ground and summons multiple large roots to wrap around a target, squeezing and twisting the target until they break.

*Healing Magic: William uses this form of magic for recovery purposes.
**World Tree Healing Magic: Budding of Yggdrasil 「世界樹回復魔法『ユグドラシルの芽吹き』 Seikaiju Kaifuku Mahō "Yugudorashiru no Mebuki"」: William sprouts a massive tree that spreads out over an area and wraps its branches around injured people, lifting them up and healing them. It is capable of treating a large number of people with an array of different injuries.

*Compound Magic 「複合魔法 Fukugō Mahō」: Compound Magic is the combination of multiple different spells to create a single, more powerful spell. A smaller variation, Union Magic 「合体魔法 Gattai Mahō」 is the combination of only two spells.
**Union Magic: Demon-Dweller Sword: Spirit Light Tree 「宿魔の剣・霊光樹 Shukuma no Tsurugi Reikō-ju」: William holds out his hands and creates a seed that sprouts into several twisting branches. The Sword Magic user (Licht) places a hand on the WIlliam's back and then uses the Demon-Dweller Sword to create connections to their allies. These connections are then tied together into a gigantic shining tree. The tree could then be used to disseminate information or magic to the connected allies.

*Reinforcement Magic: William uses this form of magic to increase his physical abilities.
**Mana Skin 「マナスキン Manasukin」: Mana Skin is a basic Reinforcement Magic spell. William creates a coating of mana that protects him. It is a basic technique that most Magic Knights have used unconsciously at one point or another. Proper training allows a mage to use it consciously and to greater effect.
Note: Compound Magic and Union Magic spells can only be used with another mage, and are therefore not usable in 1v1 scenarios.
