Reiger did not just leave the sports field but stayed to continue guiding Fushiguro Megumi and the others.
With half a month left until the Capital City sister school exchange meeting, and having almost finished his own matters, staying with Fushiguro Megumi and the others wasnāt a bad idea for Reiger.
At the very least, he had learned Inumaki Togeās [Curse], acquiring his fifth curse technique since arriving in this world.
And the [Curse] technique did not disappoint Reiger; when he used this technique with his strength, it was far superior to Inumaki Togeās.
At least, no one in this world should be strong enough to reflect Reigerās [Curse] back at him, causing backlash. And the side effects of [Curse] fall on Reiger, whose normal combat power is comparable to Lv.9, arenāt significant at all.
After all, every level of Reigerās "endurance" is trained to the SSS phase, his bodyās damage resistance and bearing capability are extremely strong, even the [Wind Spirit Swift Walk], which can shatter high-grade equipment due to overload, can now be endured for a long time, the minor side effects caused by [Curse] might not even make his throat itch.
Unless the opponent is a monster of a level far beyond Lv.9, or even far beyond a one-eyed black dragonās level.
Otherwise, even if Reigerās [Curse] was countered, he wouldnāt take much damage.
This was a pretty good gain, worth Reiger spending half a monthās time to thoroughly guide the first and second-year students, including Inumaki Toge.
Plus, with Gojo Satoruās instructions to guide Fushiguro Megumi and the others, considering that unorthodox teacher had generously taught him, Reiger should reciprocate by guiding Fushiguro Megumi and the others.
Thus, for the next half a month, Reiger basically didnāt stay in the forest for long periods but stayed and trained with Fushiguro Megumi and the others.
More precisely, he trained Fushiguro Megumi and the others.
Taught Panda and Inumaki Toge the technique of refining and using curse energy.
Taught Zenin Maki the principles of the breathing method.
Taught Fushiguro Megumi to properly use the shikigami of [Shadow Techniques], and even guided him to subdue a few shikigami that he hadnāt previously.
Even Kugisaki Nobara received a good lesson in combat techniques from Reiger, as for [Straw Doll Technique], since Reiger hadnāt developed it much either, he didnāt embarrass himself.
Of course, after the guidance, Reiger would also assign Fushiguro Megumi and the others a daily task, which was to collectively challenge themselves once a day and sharpen their combat skills through battle.
In such a scenario, only at night would Reiger take time alone to continue pondering the art of [Dimensional Slash].
This was a painstaking skill; Reiger wasnāt in a hurry, slowly mastering it, knowing he would eventually fully grasp this divine technique.
After training so vigorously for a while, Itadori Yuji, who returned from outside, joined in.
This original protagonist, learning from the first-grade Curse Mage Gojo Satoru, seemed to undergo some earth-shattering changes after returning.
The first change was naturally his strength.
After nearly two months of diligent study, Itadori Yuji finally learned the techniques to refine and use curse energy, allowing him to utilize curse energy in battles, enhancing his melee capabilities.
Thanks to this, Itadori Yujiās strength temporarily surpassed that of his classmates Fushiguro Megumi and Kugisaki Nobara. Even Panda and Zenin Maki suffered losses in their bouts with Itadori Yuji.
Even against Inumaki Togeās [Curse] technique, Itadori Yuji could resist to a certain extent, counterattacking fiercely amid the surprised gazes of the crowd.
Zenin Makiās physical abilities were already strong, almost at the top at the Magic Technical College, but Itadori Yuji, this late-started beginner, was stronger than Zenin Maki. Adding his above-average curse energy, his battle abilities post-curse energy enhancement were simply non-human. As Gojo Satoru put it, he could even engage in hand-to-hand combat with special-grade Curse Spirits.
"So this is Itadori Yuji... Sukunaās vessel?"
Knowing Itadori Yujiās special identity, the second-year students thought so in their hearts.
However, Fushiguro Megumi and Kugisaki Nobara noticed changes in Itadori Yuji beyond just strength.
At first glance, this boy still seemed as energetic as before, running, jumping, and being an all-around athlete; he could handle any sport with ease. Yet, from time to time, he would show a very serious expression, with eyes burning with a mysterious dark flame, making Fushiguro Megumi and the others feel that he had become a bit unfamiliar.
"Whatās going on with him?"
Reiger directly asked Gojo Satoru.
"Well, it should be fine, right?" Gojo Satoru seemed to know what was going on but didnāt say much, just crossing his arms and whispering, "Curse Mages are like this; they always encounter moments they canāt let go of."
"Whether witnessing sacrifices or seeing people around them pass away, they feel unable to let go."
"Those who canāt adapt to this canāt become a qualified Curse Mage; Yuji is just gradually maturing."
"Though the cost is a bit large."
Hearing this, Reiger roughly understood what Itadori Yuji had encountered.
He must have witnessed sacrifices while on a mission or seen acquaintances die, right?
