Shiba Tatsuya's Complete Weapon Arsenal: Trident CAD, Material Burst Magic - Unveiling The Irregular's Ultimate Power
In the world of The Irregular at Magic High School, magic is no longer a myth but cutting-edge scientific technology. The protagonist Shiba Tatsuya is an anomaly in himself—not only does he possess unique magic that surpasses others, but he also uses his genius intellect to develop and employ various groundbreaking "weapons," elevating his combat prowess to an unrivaled level.
This article will delve into the key weapons used by Shiba Tatsuya, revealing the true source of power behind this so-called "irregular."
Shiba Tatsuya's Core Weapon: The Casting Assistant Device (CAD)
In the world of magic studies, the Casting Assistant Device (CAD) is an indispensable tool for modern magicians, converting their intentions into specific magic activation sequences, much like firearms for soldiers. The CAD used by Shiba Tatsuya far exceeds conventional ones in both performance and design philosophy.
Specialized CAD: Trident
Tatsuya's most iconic weapon is a pair of specialized CADs named "Trident," developed under his other identity—the genius magic engineer "Taurus Silver." These silver, pistol-shaped CADs are tailor-made for Tatsuya's two core magics: "Decomposition" and "Regrowth."
Design and Function:
- "Trident" resembles a pistol in appearance, offering extremely high activation speed and stability
- Tatsuya typically wields one in each hand, enabling complex, continuous magic operations against multiple targets in rapidly changing battlefields
Exclusive Customization: Tatsuya uses a modified and upgraded version known as the "Silver Horn Custom," meaning both its software and hardware have been meticulously tuned by Tatsuya himself to maximize his magical capabilities. His exceptional CAD software skills make his weapons not just tools but extensions of his abilities.
Armed Integrated CAD and Other Applications
Besides the pistol-shaped "Trident," the world of magic studies also features "Armed Integrated CADs," which combine CADs with melee weapons like swords. Although Tatsuya's main arsenal does not primarily consist of such weapons, this highlights the diversity of CADs as "weapons."
Tatsuya himself excels in CAD design, adjustment, and maintenance. His home even includes a basement equipped with top-tier CAD tuning devices, further attesting to his顶尖 expertise in magic engineering.
Strategic-Level Magical Weapons: Third Eye and Material Burst
If CADs are Tatsuya's常规 weapons, then his strategic-level magic represents the ultimate weapon capable of shifting the global balance. Among these, the use of "Material Burst" requires a complex system to support it.
Surveillance System "Third Eye"
To precisely activate the strategic-level magic "Material Burst," which directly converts matter into energy, Tatsuya utilizes a surveillance system deployed in the stratosphere called the "Third Eye" for target acquisition.
This system provides ultra-long-range and precise vision, crucial for enabling "Material Burst" to strike accurately from thousands of miles away.
The Ultimate Destructive Magic "Material Burst"
This magic directly converts the "mass" of matter into pure "energy" following Einstein's mass-energy equivalence equation (E=mc²). Its destructive power far exceeds that of nuclear weapons and produces no radioactive contamination.
Combat Example: A notable instance occurred during the 2097 Yokohama Disturbance (Blazing Halloween). Following this event, the world recognized Tatsuya as an individual combatant with strategic-level deterrence (though the Japanese government has not formally granted him such a title).
Weapons Beyond Hardware: Tactical Thinking and Flight Devices
Shiba Tatsuya's strength lies not only in his hardware weapons but also in how he employs these tools.
Versatile Flight Magic Device
The versatile flight magic personally developed by Tatsuya and published under the name "Taurus Silver" is a groundbreaking invention that rewrote modern magic history. Although flight itself is magic, the device that enables it is also part of his arsenal, providing unparalleled mobility.
The Strongest Weapon—His Mind
Tatsuya's calm judgment, extraordinary analytical skills, and precise prediction of battle situations are his greatest weapons. Whether using CADs for high-speed combat or orchestrating strategic-level magic strikes, his meticulous tactical thinking plays a central role.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What makes Shiba Tatsuya's Trident CAD special?
A: Trident is a specialized CAD developed by Tatsuya under his Taurus Silver identity, customized for his "Decomposition" and "Regrowth" magic, offering extremely fast activation and high stability.
Q2: How powerful is the Material Burst magic?
A: Material Burst converts matter directly into energy, with destructive power far exceeding nuclear weapons but without radioactive contamination. During the Yokohama Disturbance, it instantly destroyed an entire enemy fleet.
Q3: What is the purpose of the Third Eye system?
A: The Third Eye is a surveillance system deployed in the stratosphere, providing ultra-long-range, precise target acquisition for the strategic-level magic "Material Burst."
Q4: What groundbreaking magic technologies has Shiba Tatsuya developed?
A: Under his Taurus Silver identity, Tatsuya developed versatile flight magic, the Trident CAD, and numerous other technologies that rewrote magic history.
Conclusion
From the specialized CAD "Trident," essential for personal combat, to the "Material Burst" and "Third Eye" systems capable of serving as national-level deterrents, Shiba Tatsuya's "weapon" arsenal spans tactical to strategic levels.
However, without his technical prowess as a genius magic engineer and his intellect as a top-tier tactician to integrate and utilize them, these powerful weapons could not realize their true value.
Shiba Tatsuya's overwhelming power is the ultimate embodiment of the perfect fusion of his unique magic, groundbreaking technological weapons, and超凡 wisdom.
