The collaborator is the mastermind behind all the scheming, serving as a strategist and advisor on that side.
And that collaborator...
"Geto Suguru." Reiger unconsciously said, "Is that forr special-grade sorcerer really dead?"
Hearing this, Gojo Satoru’s expression paused slightly, then he chuckled.
"Even you’re saying things like this?" Gojo Satoru looked at Reiger and said, "Suguru is indeed dead, I can guarantee that."
"I did it myself, even buried the body with my own hands."
"So, that guy is dead, without a doubt."
Gojo Satoru’s assertive words, however, didn’t make Reiger’s expression ease up.
Because, if his mory was correct, he rembered that Geto Suguru was associated with those highly intelligent curse spirits, and was always acting with them.
In the prequel of the original work, Geto Suguru was indeed defeated by Okkotsu Yuta and eventually fell into Gojo Satoru’s hands.
Since Gojo Satoru said he did it himself and killed him, Reiger still wanted to believe it.
However, if Gojo Satoru really killed Geto Suguru, then why did Geto Suguru later revive in the original work?
Everyone else thought that this incident was controlled by the highly intelligent curse spirits, but only Reiger knew, those thousands of curse spirits were definitely the handiwork of Geto Suguru.
[Curse Spirit Manipulation Technique], this technique is incredibly powerful in this world.
Reiger wasn’t very interested in it, as he already had similar summoning magic, and he had many powerful attendants and summoned creatures, plus he wouldn’t just be active in this world; he would be traveling between different worlds. Techniques like [Curse Spirit Manipulation Technique], which only affect specific entities like curse spirits in this world, weren’t very attractive to him.
But undeniably, this technique is still very strong in this world, as it can control curse spirits of various levels without limit, even including special-grade curse spirits. Once the bearer of such a technique accumulates enough power, they can possess an extrely terrifying army of curse spirits, against which ordinary curse mages would stand no chance.
Last year’s Night Parade of a Hundred Demons incident, Geto Suguru single-handedly forced the entire world of sorcery to mobilize and form an army to barely fend off the curse spirit army’s attacks on Shinjuku and the Capital City.
For soone like Geto Suguru, controlling thousands of curse spirits to attack the Sorcery Academy was an easy task.
Moreover, he was once a mber of the Sorcery Academy and was extrely knowledgeable about it. Whether it was the barriers of the Sorcery Academy or the ways to infiltrate the Curse Storage, he knew about it all.
Therefore, Reiger could confidently tell Gojo Satoru.
"I can’t explain the reasons, but this incident definitely has Geto Suguru’s handiwork in it."
Reiger’s voice clearly reached Gojo Satoru’s ears.
"I don’t know how he resurrected, but he is now with those highly intelligent curse spirits, and he’s plotting to seal you. This is the only thing I can tell you."
Upon hearing this, Gojo Satoru fell silent once more.
Reiger didn’t say anything either, just like Gojo Satoru, he quietly gazed at the night sky.
After a long while, Gojo Satoru’s voice rang out again.
"No matter what, big events will surely happen later; you’d better be prepared."
"The enemy’s strength is formidable, and it’s very likely they have mastered Domain Expansion. To counter domains, the best thod is to deploy a stronger domain."
"Learn Domain Expansion as soon as possible, then I’ll be much more at ease."
Towards the end, Gojo Satoru’s voice beca distant.
His figure had disappeared at so unknown ti, leaving Reiger alone, standing beside the vending machine, gazing at the night sky.
"Domain Expansion, huh?"
Reiger’s eyes flickered slightly.
Soon, he turned and left, heading back to the dormitory.
...
From that day on, Gojo Satoru suddenly vanished, never appearing again.
Yaga Masamichi raged because of it, reportedly trying every possible thod to contact him, but all the phone calls went unanswered, not a single one went through.
The people of the Sorcery Academy had no ti to search for Gojo Satoru, as the curse spirits in the forest still required so ti to be completely dealt with.
And during this ti, the world of sorcery had started to beco increasingly unrestful.
"Curse spirits and curse masters are frequently appearing worldwide?"
On this day, Reiger was once again called to the principal’s office.
However, this ti, there was no Gojo Satoru in the office, nor were there Gakuganji Yoshinobu or Iori Utahi, only Yaga Masamichi alone.
Yaga Masamichi didn’t beat around the bush and got straight to the point.
"Reports of sorcery incidents happening everywhere are being gathered at the Sorcery Academy. The appearance frequency of curse spirits and curse masters is tens to hundreds of tis higher than in the past, extrely abnormal!" Yaga Masamichi said gravely: "This occurrence frequency is almost comparable to the records left from the Heian period!"
A thousand years ago, the Heian period was considered the most glorious yet chaotic era in the world of sorcery.
It was an era of extraordinary happenings, where whether curse mages, curse masters, or curse spirits thrived in the strongest and most prosperous tis.
Ryonsukuna existed in such an era and dominated it, being considered the strongest Curse King in history.
The frequency of sorcery incidents during that ti was incomparable to now, and it could be said that special-grade incidents were rampant, and curse spirits were as nurous as dogs.
Now, with curse spirits and even curse masters appearing everywhere, leading to frequent sorcery incidents, this was a major issue.
"At this ti, the Sorcery Academy is severely lacking manpower and needs to handle the remaining curse spirits in the forest first."
The world of sorcery has always been in a state of insufficient manpower.
Training highly skilled curse mages takes too much ti and effort, and there are very few individuals with the necessary aptitude. If it weren’t for the sorcerer families led by the Three Great Families stepping up, solely relying on the combat power of the two major Sorcery Academies wouldn’t be enough to deal with sorcery incidents occurring nationwide.
Now, at such a critical mont, the Sorcery Academy still needs a lot of manpower to handle the ss left by the exchange eting, but the sorcery incidents have increased explosively, causing Yaga Masamichi to beco overwheld.
"At this point, that fool is nowhere to be found, so I have to let you take his place and handle those significant sorcery incidents that seem to be of special-grade level."
At this, Yaga Masamichi seed very troubled.
If possible, he didn’t want Reiger to leave the Sorcery Academy.
The reason is the sa as before; he wanted to keep Reiger under his watchful eye, preventing him from causing trouble.
Geto Suguru and Gojo Satoru were contemporaries; Gojo Satoru was once Yaga Masamichi’s student, and so naturally, Geto Suguru was also once Yaga Masamichi’s student.
As a result, under his teaching, Geto Suguru defected, which remained a thorn in Yaga Masamichi’s heart.
If even a student like Geto Suguru, who grew under his care, could defect, then Reiger, a suspicious character, needed to be monitored even more vigilantly.
But there was no choice now. Gojo Satoru was missing, Geto Suguru was dead, Okkotsu Yuta was abroad, and the remaining special-grade sorcerer didn’t agree with the Academy’s principles and never cooperated with their actions. None of the forr four special-grade sorcerers could be relied upon, leaving Yaga Masamichi quite distressed.
With no other option, Yaga Masamichi sought out Reiger.
Now, the only special-grade with curse involvent could handle those special-grade sorcery incidents.
"The situation’s beco dire..."
Reiger naturally understood Yaga Masamichi’s dilemma, knowing that being the one called upon ant the situation was undoubtedly urgent.
So, Reiger thought for a mont and finally nodded in agreent.
"Just as well, I wanted so real combat experience too."
Special-grade sorcery incidents would likely involve encounters with special-grade curse spirits, right?
Those curse spirits might possess techniques with considerable potential, worth taking a look at.
Moreover, Reiger hadn’t forgotten his second purpose for coming to this world.
To accumulate experience points and reach Lv.9 in this world.
