Chapter 142: Technical College and Cursed Spirits
The new head of the Kamo family is the hottest topic in the world of sorcery recently. Although everyone in the technical high school rarely came into contact with sorcerers from the outside world, they had heard his name many times. It contains all kinds of bizarre conjectures, especially the fact that he eliminated all the high-ranking family members on that day and ascended to the position of the head of the three royal families, which has evolved into countless versions.
Yes, the Kamo family has relaxed restrictions and reconnected with the outside world. But entry and exit to the tribe's territory is still very strict.
"I heard that so many people died at the hands of the cursed spirit he tamed. It's so powerful, probably an elite among elites. Will such a cursed spirit really not get out of control?" This is a worried female classmate.
"Humph, people like this won't last long," an inexplicably confident male student said in the doubtful eyes of his companions, "Just think about it, what era is it now? He's still committing mass murder. This isn't an anime world. Just based on this, he will definitely not have an easy life."
"Not to mention that he is using cursed spirits. This is overstepping the boundaries in our curse world, and there will definitely be people who are unhappy with him," he said.
"No," Zenin Maki, who was passing by with a training stick in her hand, suddenly interrupted, "It's because we are in Kamo's house that we won't."
"Senior!" The two students who were discussing this were a little panicked.
Pushing her glasses, she said, "A family like this will not allow others to judge family affairs. Even if the new family head was not taken seriously before, as long as he has a layer of Kamo family skin, this is an internal matter of their family."
She seemed to remember something, and her tone became even colder: "If those senior leaders were still here, they might have contacted outsiders to take action because they looked down on the people of the branch. In their eyes, the people below are not human at all, but they are already dead!" At this point, her voice fluctuated a little: "...Since they are dead, this matter has returned to the family's affairs. In addition, he still has power, so he has control over that family."
"Xiao Zhenxi is envious of him?" Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded from behind her. Zenyuan Zhenxi was not surprised at all. She did not turn around, but just said calmly: "No, I am not envious, because I know that I can't do those things at all."
But sometimes, she would occasionally have such a dream...
"Haha," the man slapped her on the shoulder, "You're still saying you're not envious, but I see your eyes are almost shining!"
Zenin Maki, with shining eyes, continued, "If you can't change their ideas, then get rid of the people who caused the problem. Such a crude and barbaric solution is not what the young people of our time should do... Ugh..."
Why isn't he a member of the Zenin family? It's obviously this family that needs to be changed!
"Okay," the person behind him was Gojo Satoru. He didn't say anything about Zenin Maki's performance, but just pulled his eye mask: "It's time to go on a mission."
"What mission is it, and what level is it?"
"It's about gathering intelligence. There's no need to fight this time," said Gojo Satoru.
"What?" Zenin Maki was surprised. "Does it take so many of us to gather intelligence? Is it some powerful cursed spirit?"
“Heh,” Gojo Satoru chuckled with an ambiguous tone, “It is indeed a very powerful cursed spirit.”
"But there's no need for you, Gojo-sensei, to go out in person. You only need to come over at the end and deal with it in two moves, right?"
"I'm so sad that you actually look at the teacher like this..."
The group finally arrived at a deserted village. Because it had been searched before, they did not find anything in the houses in the village.
Many people came this time, including Yuji Itadori, Megumi Fushiguro, Nobara Kugisaki, Satoru Inugami, and her own Maki Zenin. "Is the Jujutsu High School being deployed in large numbers this time? Wasn't it said that they were just collecting intelligence?" Yuji Itadori touched his head, feeling a little puzzled.
"That depends on what kind of cursed spirit it is," Gojo Satoru said, crouching on a rock beside him with a smile, "Do you know the new head of the Kamo family? We are investigating the cursed spirit around him."
"Are you talking about the person who killed two-thirds of the main branch of his family, then hid for a year, and then took control of the entire family in his hands?" Megumi Fushiguro's face had no expression.
"What kind of inspirational drama with villains?" Kugisaki Nobara couldn't help but complain.
Gojo Satoru ignored them: "What we need to investigate is why this cursed spirit obeyed Kamo Tsukuyuki's orders. Was he controlling the cursed spirit, or was the cursed spirit parasitizing him? How did they meet, and what happened between them?"
"Will you really not get killed if you explore other people's secrets?" Zenin Maki looked around warily.
Gojo Satoru laughed sinisterly: "Then why do you think we let so many people come this time..."
Several people were startled. The worry that I had let go of before was lifted up again. Gojo Satoru laughed and said, "Don't worry, that person is still in the Kamo family's territory. He rarely comes out, and there is no cover-up of what happened here. People from the Supervisory Committee have also been here. You don't have to worry about offending him."
“Besides, don’t we still have Gojo Sensei?” Gojo Satoru said proudly as the others relaxed a little. “I am number one. If I didn’t want to, I would have slaughtered a family for fun… ah, damn it, those people in the family haven’t provoked me to that extent, but I got the upper hand… Even if I defeat the cursed spirit from one of the three great families, if it really comes, I can make it come without return.”
He declared so. But everyone had to admit that he did have the capital to say so.
"Teacher, you should control your speech," Zenin Maki said coldly, "No matter how strong you are, you can't stand such pretense. In the second dimension, you will fall down if you do this, and you may not be able to get up after a big fall. It's too typical for you to be like this."
"What are you talking about, little Maki," Gojo Satoru touched her head and said with a smile, "Read less comic books. I don't understand what you say. I am the strongest and will never fail. Okay, go collect information quickly. I will be waiting for you here, teacher!"
He didn't show any intention of moving. He just squatted there, looking at everyone with a smile. "Salmon." said Dog Roll. The others complained a few words, but still acted obediently together.
Gojo Satoru just looked at the back of his student as he left, as if he was really a responsible and excellent teacher.
This made the people in the dark anxious. The two people hiding far away... no, the two cursed spirits were very careful not to reveal any fluctuations in cursed power. This was the most basic thing to do when monitoring the strongest combat power of mankind. Among them, the cursed spirit with a taller figure, eyes covered by branches, patterns all over his body, and a flower on his left arm asked, "What are they doing here? Are they here to investigate the real person as well?"
"No," the other one-eyed curse spirit was calmer, "They are probably here to investigate our kind who was born here a year ago." It was shorter than its companions, but gave people a stronger sense of oppression, like a small mountain, with hot steam coming out of its head like a volcano. He analyzed very calmly, "The real person was born not long ago and has not yet entered the eyes of human sorcerers. Although we traced him to disappear here, those people don't know. They only know that two special curse spirits fought here, and they still need to guess the more specific identity."
The cursed spirit entangled by the branches sighed: "I don't know how the real one is doing. He hasn't even comprehended his own domain yet. I don't know if he can be a match for the new cursed spirit."
"Probably gone," said the one-eyed cursed spirit, "I haven't heard from him for a year. But don't worry, we cursed spirits won't die, and we may be reborn somewhere in the future. But then he won't be the real person we know."
The cursed spirits of the trees were a little sentimental: "Why did they fight? Aren't we all the same kind? In this year, not only did the real person disappear, but the magician with stitches on his forehead who was always talking nonsense also didn't show up. What happened?"
He turned to his companion and said, "Luohu, I have a bad feeling. Can we really achieve our goal?"
"Yes," Louhu secretly clenched his hands, "Without them, can't we do it ourselves? Hua Yu, that's something we have to devote our lives to achieve. If we give up easily, doesn't it mean that our awareness is only this level? If so, we can't blame others for our failure. Success is not so easy to achieve. We must be prepared to make sacrifices."
Hua Yu couldn't help but look at him: "You are really different, Louhu." He raised his head and looked in the previous direction. The wind blew through them: "If it weren't for you, we would probably still be in a daze, full of instinctive malice towards humans, and we wouldn't gather together to achieve the same goal. If it is for the future you described," he stood at the edge of the cliff, basking in the sun, "... I think I would be willing to fight with my life."
"Hua Yu..." Lou Hu couldn't help but feel moved. That's it. He did it not just for himself, but also for the companions around him. He wanted to see the future he dreamed of come true, even if it meant his own end.
The two cursed spirits were in a sentimental and harmonious atmosphere. Gojo Satoru on the other side glanced slightly in this direction.
“They don’t look like people from the Directorate.” He thought, “I hope they can be more conscious and stop coming closer.”
He had no intention of going to picket. Because he has been troubled by a question recently: is he really a very easy-going person, which gives some people the courage to keep jumping around in his danger zone? The one from the Kamo family acted too swiftly and ruthlessly, and the demise of the family's top leaders made them wary of the pity of their own kind. It is understandable that they are extremely resistant and repulsive to this.
But it is such people who dare not take action for a long time. Even if they do, they plan secretly. As for themselves, they act again and again without any concealment. Could it be that my strongest claim is fake?
