Demon Slayers (, Dēmon Sureiyā, literally "Demon Slayer Magicians") are people who use Demon Slayer Magic, a form of Ancient Magic.

Description
Demon Slayers are a unique type of people of multiple races who utilize a form of Ancient Magic, Demon Slayer Magic. Each Demon Slayer has their own form of Magic, each of which derive from Dark Elements of the Demon World. In addition, they also have the ability to consume the element which they wield, just as long as it is not created from their own Magic. Doing so rejuvenates them and enhances their abilities. Demon Slayers are known to possess keener senses and abilities than those of their respective races such as in smell, sight, hearing, mana capacity etc., as well as distinctive characteristics and features such as slitted pupils and noticeably sharper teeth.

Furthermore, if a Demon Slayer manages to successfully kill a Devil or similar creatures, they become stronger after bathing in their blood and essence. However, Demon Slayers can transform into Devils and Demons themselves through excessive use of their Magic; the most prominent example is Veinhelm, who killed every other Blood Devil in existence, but it has always been feared as a drawback when one transformed into a Devil or Demon, going as far as being described as "not quite a Demon". In each case it differs if the Demon Slayer who eventually dragonized can return to their human form, considering Veinhelm and Lang Bei were two Demon Slayers who were able to obtain that ability while Elatha wasn't able to obtain the answer in nearly 1000+ years. The only way to prevent the Diabolica Seed from permanently manifesting itself in its host's body, as it were, was for a Demon to enter the body of a Demon Slayer via a secret art and sleep there, creating antibodies as they do so. After enough time has passed from the point of their creation, the Demon Slayer is almost guaranteed to never turn into a Devil. Alternatively, the Devilization can also be temporarily stopped by separating the Demon Slayer Magic from its user with the use of a Separation Enchantment.

Styles
There are seven generations of Demon Slayers, and each generation of Demon Slayers differ by how the Demon Slayer Magic is obtained.

First Generation
The First Generation Demon Slayers were the original Demon Slayers, who learnt their Demon Slayer Magic from an actual Demon or Devil. In most cases, the particular Demon Slayer’s teacher was also their biological, adoptive or foster parent.

Second Generation
Those from the second generation of Demon Slayers have had a Elemental Demon Soul implanted into their bodies and Magia, granting them the ability to use Demon Slayer Magic. Because they were not taught their abilities by a Demon or Devil, they are considered semi-artificial Demon Slayers.

Third Generation
Demon Slayers heralding from this generation have both been taught their Magic by actual Demons/Devils and have had their bodies implanted with Elemental Demon Soul.

Fourth Generation
Demon Slayers of this origin are entirely artificial beings created from Elemental Demon Souls or pure magic power, giving them immense durability, speed, power. As automatons, they are capable of fighting indefinitely until their source of power is destroyed.

Fifth Generation
Demon Slayers of this generation are those that gain their powers by devouring Demon/Devil flesh or cannibalism of other Demon Slayers, which in turn gain the Magic Power and Magia of the devoured. They are alternatively known as Demon Eaters (, Dēmon Ītā (Akumagui)).
