Though her actions can’t be considered righteous, neither can they be labeled villainous. At least no one has seen her working for a Curse Master, making her a character walking the gray area.
Her technique is the [Black Bird Manipulation Technique], as the na suggests, a technique capable of controlling black crows.
Through this technique, she not only can control crows but also share vision with them, making her extrely adept at searching.
During the Capital City sister school exchange, she was hired as an assistant, originally tasked with receiving the crows’ vision and using cursed tools for live broadcasts of the matches. However, after Gakuganji Yoshinobu offered money, she deliberately guided the crow flock to avoid the main battle zones, keeping sorcery high school personnel unaware of Capital City’s actions.
Now, it’s evident she has been hired again.
But this ti, it’s not just anyone who hired her; it is those at the top of the world of sorcery.
"Sorry, Brillhaut-kun." ii smiled at Reiger insincerely and said, "Although I’m a sorcery high school graduate Curse Mage and sowhat your senior, I have no choice—they offered too much money."
Thus, Reiger was found by ii’s crows, and Shido Motonari and others arrived shortly after he appeared.
"Nice technique, very practical."
Reiger casually said this, his calm deanor looking as if he didn’t care about such matters at all.
"...Thank you for the exaggeration."
ii squinted her eyes and replied with those words, then fell silent.
"Reiger Brillhaut." Shido Motonari saw Reiger ignoring him, his eyebrows furrowing deeper as he said coldly, "Don’t dodge the topic, we’re discussing your transfer order now."
"What’s your response?"
"Accept or refuse?"
Suddenly, the people around started to quietly emit a slight amount of cursed energy, seemingly entering battle mode, perhaps intentionally to intimidate Reiger.
But that amount of cursed energy was like a gentle breeze to Reiger.
"The elite curse-exorcism team under the sorcery command departnt...’Ka,’ right?"
Reiger finally looked at Shido Motonari, his expression half-amused.
"Sounds indeed impressive, but a team of such remarkable Curse Mages wasn’t sent to pursue Geto Suguru, nor were you seen during the Shibuya incident, yet you’re here issuing a transfer order to a sorcerer who has been reassigned?"
"Seems like the sorcery command departnt has substantial human resources, enough to misuse great talents."
"Or perhaps...despite the grand title, you’re only capable of handling such level of work?"
Upon hearing this, the people around imdiately changed their expressions slightly.
Shido Motonari’s face turned even colder, his tone growing aggressive.
"Do you wish to refuse the upper managent’s transfer order?"
In response to this questioning, Reiger’s half-amused expression turned into a wry smile.
And the words he spoke were like this.
"Spare the perfunctory talk ant to fool people." Reiger said, "Go back and tell your superiors that if they want to embezzle their way to a peaceful retirent, it’s best not to co out and make a fool of themselves."
"I’m not like Gojo Satoru. I don’t have so much patience and can’t treat so many things as a joke."
"Before you touch my bottom line, get as far away as you can, got it?"
After speaking, Reiger turned around, ready to leave.
Suddenly—
"Special-grade Curse Involvent rejects the transfer order, ignores the sorcery command departnt’s notification, suspected of ideological interference by Gojo Satoru and Yaga Masamichi!"
Shido Motonari suddenly shouted.
"According to instructions, comncing forced asures now, go!"
Under Shido Motonari’s command, the surrounding people enclosing Reiger imdiately moved.
"Swish!" "Swish!" "Swish!" "Swish!"...
Amid the faint sound of wind-breaking, each Curse Mage from "Ka" shot towards Reiger like arrows off a bowstring, holding daggers to stab at his non-lethal parts such as arms, thighs, and shoulders.
Their speed was extrely fast, with cursed energy fully erupting from their bodies, each quite considerable, enough to rival a Grade Two Curse Mage or higher.
"A," this is the elite exorcist team directly under the Sorcery Directorate, similar to the "Shadow" directly under the royal family of the Jinass Kingdom on the Akasha Continent. Not only are they all elites, but they have also been continuously engaged in clandestine operations such as cleansing traitors.
This elite exorcist team is jointly ford by various Curse Mage families who hold significant positions among the high-ranking mbers of the world of sorcery, led by the Three Major Families. Almost all internal mbers are sorcerers from those families, who have long been brainwashed by them. They regard family honor as everything, willing to sacrifice their lives for it, and have already beco sowhat akin to Death Soldiers.
For instance, the captain of "A," Shido Motonari, whose old na is Kamo Motonari, cos from the Kamoi Family of the Three Major Families. He joined the Shido Family due to not inheriting the Kamo technique, and the Shido Family’s mission for generations has been to serve the Kamoi Family. Even though he’s an experienced Grade 1 Curse Mage, nearly as powerful as ii and Todo Aoi, second only to Zenin Naobito, this belief has deeply rooted in his world and can never change.
Rather than saying this elite exorcist assault team "A" is a combat group directly under the Sorcery Directorate, it might be more accurate to say it is a tool for those in power from the Curse Mage families.
Chasing Geto Suguru?
Rescuing Shibuya?
These are not worth their intervention.
Only when the high-ranking mbers of the world of sorcery require their presence, do they appear.
Now, those lofty figures demand Reiger, so they have naturally co.
Just a bit lacking in wisdom.
"Buzz..."
Amidst the slight tremor in space, all the Curse Mages who flashed around Reiger, initiating attacks, found their daggers slowly stopped upon nearing Reiger.
"[Limitless Sorcery]...!"
Shido Motonari’s eyes narrowed but didn’t fall into panic; instead, he suddenly waved his hand.
Instantly, round objects were thrown out from the shadows of the alleys and the windows of the buildings around.
"Bang!"
A round object hit the ground, exploding on the spot, releasing a cloud of smoke.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"...
One after another, following behind, the round objects exploded consecutively, filling the entire street with smoke.
The smoke billowed around Reiger, though intercepted outside by the impenetrable [Limitless Sorcery], it caused Reiger to frown.
"Sorcery poison mixed in the air, huh?"
Reiger could sense his own sorcery power operation becoming quite unsmooth at this mont.
[Limitless Sorcery] can use "Infinity" to remove everything, but only if Reiger can reject it from outside.
He still needs to breathe, requires oxygen. Therefore, he won’t stop airflow using the force of inhibition.
[Limitless Sorcery] can automatically isolate harmful toxins, but this sorcery poison doesn’t affect the body; it interferes with the operation of sorcery power.
This caused Reiger himself to remain unhard, but [Limitless Sorcery] encountered operational obstacles lasting approximately a few seconds.
"Activate the Eight-Eye Pillars!"
Following Shido Motonari’s command, eight sorcerers emitting the most powerful sorcery appeared from eight corners near Reiger, surrounding him once again.
These sorcerers held not daggers but one-ter-long cylinders.
The cylinders were entirely crimson, adorned with patterns of eight eyes, appearing rather sinister.
"Eight-Eye Pillars! Activate!"
The sorcerers shouted in unison, smashing their cylinders into the ground, piercing the earth.
"Buzz!"
The next second, the eyes on each cylinder lit up one by one, shooting out red lines, interconnecting.
Eight cylinders ultimately ford a prison with interconnected lines, encasing Reiger.
Along the lines, the sorcerers’ sorcery power flowed and ignited, transforming the prison into a flaming altar.
"Hmm?"
This ti, Reiger was sowhat astonished.
Because he suddenly couldn’t sense the presence of sorcery power.
