In this situation, once they confirm something has happened to Gojo Satoru, they will definitely lose control and take action against those protected by Gojo Satoru.
Among them, perhaps Reiger might be included.
Reiger isnât afraid, he doesnât even take them seriously at all.
If those old fogies still canât see clearly whatâs happening, and think they can handle Reiger, then Reiger wouldnât mind teaching them a lesson, letting them know the difference between himself and Gojo Satoru.
Gojo Satoru believes killing them all is useless, but Reiger doesnât think so.
If they dare reach out, heâll chop their dog paws to pieces.
What Reiger truly cares about is Gojo Satoruâs whereabouts.
(Could he be looking for Geto Suguru?)
Reiger can only think of this possibility.
A month ago, he hinted clearly enough, so itâs normal for Gojo Satoru to take action.
And Geto Suguru holds a significant position in Gojo Satoruâs heart; it would be reasonable for him to seek him out.
(...Could something really happen?)
Reiger is still a bit worried.
Although Gojo Satoru is strong, open attacks are easy to guard against while hidden ones are hard to prevent. Itâs not fear of the open threats, but the fear of the covert ones.
From the original work, itâs clear that Geto Suguru might not be able to defeat Gojo Satoru, but he seems to have a way to seal Gojo Satoru.
What is that method?
Reiger doesnât know.
As per the original animation known to him, that aspect of the storyline hadnât been reached then.
Reiger only knows it seems to involve a cursed object.
And what effect does that cursed object have, why can it seal Gojo Satoru, Reiger does not know.
(Should have given that guy a heads-up about the existence of that cursed object.)
Unfortunately, itâs too late now.
(Hope that guy doesnât crash and burn now.)
Otherwise, his throne as supreme ruler would be utterly disgraced.
At this moment, Shinseki Kikyo spoke again.
"Next, above hopes Mr. Brillhaut can cooperate with them for a key operation."
Upon hearing, Reigerâs attention was immediately diverted.
"Key operation?" Reiger raised his eyebrows slightly, saying: "They want me to deal with those four Curse Spirits?"
"Yes." Shinseki Kikyo nodded vigorously and said: "Above believes, with Mr. Gojo not present now, only Mr. Brillhaut has the ability to deal with those four Curse Spirits."
"Hence, theyâll have you rush to the scene first whenever the track of the opponent is confirmed next."
"Thatâs your next task."
"Before then, you can take a rest, recharge yourself, no other task needs to be executed."
This is good news.
Although Reiger really wants to kill more Curse Spirits to accumulate experience and, in passing, obtain various spells. But this kind of high-intensity running all over the country for a month, handling four or five incidents daily, even for Reiger, itâs gotten tiring over time.
The main hassle is running around. If it were like in Earth Mistake World where you only need to dive into the underground city for endless fighting, Reiger wouldnât mind doing it for days on end.
In truth, he enjoys the thrill of battle.
But when time is spent on traveling, solving a problem, and rushing to the next spot, it becomes grating.
However, the harvest from this period of running is considerable.
Besides acquiring various spells and mastering Curse Spirits in real battles, thereâs been notable growth in ability values.
Reiger recalled the ability value update he underwent just last night.
...
Reiger Brillhaut
Lv.8
Strength: A847â SS1145
Endurance: A811â SS1137
Dexterity: S932â SSS1255
Agility: S950â SSS1277
Magic Power: SS1001â SSS1331
Light Armor: A
Swordsman: B
Sorcerer: C
Combatant: C
Quick Attack: D
Magic Chant: E
Unyielding: I
...
"Strength" and "Endurance" have both reached SS level!
"Dexterity", "Agility", and "Magic Power" are all at the SSS level!
This results from both the past month of high-intensity running, solving numerous Curse Spirit incidents for experience, and the hard training in the previous two months.
Self-training can also enhance ability parameters; if effectively grown, experience can accumulate.
During those two months, Reiger not only honed skill in mana manipulation comparable to the Six Eyes but also consecutively mastered [Dimensional Slash], [Limitless Technique], [Ten Shadow Techniques], and integrated this entirely new power system into close combat training, thus achieving growth and accumulating experience.
Now, Reiger can feel that soon, heâll reach the current stageâs limit on ability.
By then, itâll be time to transcend into a whole new stage.
"Acquire the remaining experience from those Curse Spirits."
The opponentâs maneuvers should provide many surprises to help fill in the remaining experience, right?
Additionally, it offers a good chance to acquire Mahitoâs spell.
The other three curses besides Mahitoâs spell donât attract Reiger much.
Flame control, plant manipulation, and water capabilities; Reiger doesnât lack any of them.
"Letâs go."
Reiger closed his eyes again.
"Return to the hotel and rest."
"Yes."
Shinseki Kikyo responded softly, steering towards a luxurious hotel.
...
"Shush..."
The rain was pattering.
The sky was clouded and drizzle started.
The rain dampened the streets and moisture filled the air, markedly dropping the temperature.
It is now November, with piercing cold winds and lowered temperatures, getting wet feels bone-chilling, leaving streets almost empty.
Marred by recent disappearances, city vibes have changed, hearts become restless, dramatically decreasing passersby numbers.
In this rainy scene, a monk-dressed man walked along rain-swept alleys.
"Yes, ready to proceed."
The man, holding a phone, was conversing.
"Preparations are all made, disruptions are surmountable by altered sequence."
"Indeed... Iâve nearly evaded to the limits, Six Eyes is too tenacious, without using magic, that guy shall trace me at some point."
"Right, delay is perilous, eventually leading to my demise."
"Itâs time, launch our great undertaking now."
Ending the call, the monk halted.
"Pouring rain descended upon the alley."
Wet thoroughly, the monk gazed at the presence blocking the alley mouth, a resigned look on his face.
"Youâve found me after all."
At this statement, the other drenched person lifted his head, revealing a pair of azure eyes.
"...Who are you?"
With white hair soaked, Gojo Satoru glared with horror at the familiar man, asking in a low tone.
"What? Donât you recognize me?" The monk man unfazedly replied, "Iâm Geto Suguru, Satoru."
This statement threw Gojo Satoruâs emotions into turmoil.
"...Indeed, be it curse power, physical structure, all declares youâre Geto Suguru through these "eyes"."
Gojo Satoru twistedly yelled.
"Yet my soul denies you!"
"Who are you?"
"Youâre definitely not Geto Suguru!"
Listening to this cry, the monk man laughed.
That smile, malicious and eerie.
