Explosion Magic
The strongest spell there is, and the only one Megumin will cast.
Explosion Magic is the most powerful spell in KonoSuba and Megumin's one and only attack. The caster calls down a single beam of light that bursts into a huge blast of pure magical power, strong enough to hurt ghosts, spirits, gods and demons alike.

Background
The spell takes so many skill points that it is mostly learned by long-lived beings such as the undead and gods. Its costs are heavy: it drains nearly all of the caster's mana, so Megumin collapses after a single cast; it reshapes the land around the target, which makes it dangerous underground; and the noise pulls in every monster nearby. Megumin fell in love with it after a stranger saved her with it, and she spends every skill point on making it stronger, including a skill that lets her cast it without the full chant.
