The entire Tokyo tropolitan Jujutsu High School was alard!
Whether teachers or students, whether on-campus personnel or Curse Mages using this place as a base, all of them stepped out of the classrooms and dormitories in that mont, heading towards the forest.
The fastest among them was naturally Fushiguro gumi.
"[Nue]!"
This boy, who usually wore a stern expression, now had an unusually anxious look on his face. While rapidly running towards the forest, he ford hand signs, summoning the shikigami hawk from his shadow.
Fushiguro gumi’s [Nue] looked exactly like Reiger’s [Nue]; both were owls. However, unlike Reiger’s [Nue], which had a wingspan of at least four ters, Fushiguro gumi’s [Nue] was much smaller, unable to carry him into the sky.
Yet, Fushiguro still commanded his [Nue] to extend its claws, grip his shoulders, and lift him into the air.
"There must be no mistake..."
Controlling [Nue] to speed toward the site of the incident, Fushiguro gumi’s face was extrely grim.
"[Eight-Handed Sword·Divine General of the Strange Ring·Demonic Void]...!"
This monster, which no caster in history had ever successfully subdued using the [Ten Shadows Technique], had actually been summoned!
"Damn it, if I had known this would happen, I would have warned that guy!"
Fushiguro couldn’t help but regret.
He knew that Reiger had the ability to replicate others’ spells and might very likely learn the [Ten Shadows Technique], but he hadn’t warned him in advance. In Fushiguro’s view, this was his oversight.
If Gojo Satoru were here, it would be fine. He also knew how terrifying the final shikigami of the [Ten Shadows Technique] was. If he saw Reiger attempting to summon it, he would absolutely stop him. But unfortunately, Gojo Satoru had just left Jujutsu High School at this ti.
"Now that the subduing ritual has begun, there are only two outcos."
"Either Brilliant is killed, the ritual fails, and the shikigami summoning is imdiately canceled."
"Or soone intervenes in the subduing ritual before he is killed."
The subduing ritual for the [Ten Shadows Technique] must be carried out by the caster themselves. If others interfere, even successfully defeating the intended shikigami will not validate the ritual. The caster will still be unable to control the unsubdued shikigami.
But at least they won’t die and will have another opportunity.
However, the shikigami summoned by Reiger this ti isn’t an ordinary [Ten Shadows Technique] shikigami. It’s the most dreadful, horrifying, and difficult to subdue of the ten types of shikigami in the [Ten Shadows Technique]. No one has successfully subdued it to this day.
Even if soone intervened in this subduing ritual, can they win against that terrifying shikigami?
Even if Gojo Satoru were present, it would be hard to say whether he could prevail, wouldn’t it?
In other words...
"Either the caster is killed, resulting in only one person’s sacrifice."
"Or the interveners are massively slaughtered, aning more than one person might be sacrificed."
In any case, soone will die this ti.
That’s why Fushiguro gumi’s face looked so grim and desperate.
As for successfully subduing it?
He dared not imagine it.
It’s not that he underestimated Reiger, but the history of no one ever successfully subduing this shikigami made it impossible for Fushiguro to imagine it being successfully subdued.
"Why... why summon that guy of all things?"
Fushiguro gritted his teeth, rushing forward with all his might.
Of course, he knew that his actions were essentially futile.
Even if he got there, what could he do?
Could he possibly help Reiger to subdue that monster?
Impossible.
But if he didn’t go, he feared those unaware of the shikigami’s terror might recklessly rush into the subduing ritual, throwing their lives away for nothing.
Therefore, no matter what, he had to get there as soon as possible, even if he hadn’t thought about what to do when he arrived.
"Hurry up... hurry up...!"
This was his sole thought now, urging [Nue] to increase its speed continuously.
But as facts proved, even though he hurried desperately to the scene, he couldn’t do anything.
He couldn’t even get close.
"Boom!!!"
After a deafening explosion, a terrifying sight appeared before Fushiguro gumi’s eyes.
Carried by [Nue] into the sky, Fushiguro gumi witnessed firsthand as a blue light appeared above the forest.
Imdiately afterwards, the blue light erupted with an astonishing attraction, shaking the forest below and the surrounding atmosphere.
"Rumble...!"
Amidst a series of rumbling sounds, the atmosphere was being sucked away in waves, while the ground cracked with tremors, drawing countless rocks, soil, rubble, dust, and uprooted trees into the sky, converging upon the blue light.
Before long, the blue light was covered by countless amounts of soil, rocks, and gravel, forming a celestial-like teorite.
The teorite continued to attract everything, causing more and more soil, rocks, gravel, and trees to adhere to it, growing increasingly larger and more magnificent.
"What...?!"
Just as Fushiguro gumi’s face drastically changed, the terrifying attraction seed to pull him like a black hole, forcing him to grab onto [Nue]’s feet, frantically controlling [Nue] to fly, resisting the pull.
Not only was Fushiguro doing this, but everyone rushing toward the forest was doing the sa.
"Be careful!"
"Don’t get sucked away!"
"Getting sucked away ans it’s over!"
"Isn’t this Mr. Gojo’s spell...?!
