I'd just call it all supernatural bullshit. That avoids the definition debate.
Knights use supernatural bullshit to fight supernatural bullshit. Therefore hypocrisy.
And bullshit.

...but it's still not physics...
Define "physics".

An aria is a chant of scripture (can be any kind of scripture) that draws out the power of the chant and forms it into an effect. For example the Aria chanters in the battle used it to shield the Knights and templar from magic at the cost of having to keep up the chant to keep the buff active.
Yeah...that wouldn't work. Will doesn't believe in any god he hasn't met or seen in the news, and he certainly doesn't worship any. I'm not sure how you could get less religious without denying the existence of Shys'm Caes to her face.
...
*scribble scribble*
@Sanure never said he had to believe in it.

It's still out-of-character. And whatever force there is behind the arias wouldn't appreciate it.

Aria Caster 1 begins chanting a passage of scripture [62]. Knights 1-3 have been shielded from hybrid magic (creation/void).

Aria caster 2 begins chanting a passage of scripture [37]. Paladin Templar has been shielded from hybrid magic (creation/void).
void isn't magic.
Knight 3 rushes Ashley [30vsAuto] but Ashley teleports behind him and slashes him in the neck with her fatigue katana, but the knight is shielded from the effect.
Fatigue katana shouldn't be shielded, since it is not void-based in power. The material it is made of naturally drains energy.

...How so?
All of them have no description of what they look like. Luna is slightly excusable but the others...

Apply post-modernism. Use philosophy rather than scripture. Like turning into an Übermensch and gaining anti-divine traits via Also Sprach Zarathustra. Hmm... how fitting, an anti-aria aria.

Also not exactly Will's style, from what I understand of the philosophy.
Which isn't bloody much, but still.

Nietzsche wasn't entirely consistent, so I doubt anyone would mind someone with conflicting views using it.

Knight 3 rushes Ashley [30vsAuto] but Ashley teleports behind him and slashes him in the neck with her fatigue katana, but the knight is shielded from the effect.
Fatigue katana shouldn't be shielded, since it is not void-based in power. The material it is made of naturally drains energy.
So Twilight-class supernatural then? Seeing as physics sure as hell [insert something that is actually sure] doesn't cover it.

Seeing as physics doesn't cover it (unless it was blunt with barbs laced with some sort of chemical). I'd think it's Twilight-class supernatural.

Also, what Emp said about will not having to believe in anything. The forces behind the power isn't an intelligent entity. or an entity at all.
Will will have some other choices if he desires.

Seeing as it's impossible(?) to make anti-void without void itself...
*Projeck shrugs

As for the katana, yeah, Twilight-Class.
