Chapter 1330 - 951: Do What Needs to Be Done (2)

Such a Shikigami, who wouldn’t want it?

If Geto Suguru possessed this Alien Ring Divine General, he might even have a fair chance in a one-on-one against Gojo Satoru.

The only issue is...

"Can his [Curse Spirit Manipulation Technique] control Shikigami from the [Ten Shadow Techniques]?"

This is something Reiger couldn’t figure out.

And since he couldn’t figure it out, Reiger decided not to dwell on it any further.

"Either way, the Prison Gate Border that seals Gojo Satoru is likely in his possession, and Fushiguro might also be with him. Once we find him, things will be easier."

This time, Reiger was determined to see this through.

He didn’t comment on Geto Suguru’s actions or his objectives, but Gojo Satoru was the one who led him into the world of sorcery, where he learned curse techniques and spells. Reiger couldn’t just stand by and watch him remain sealed.

Fushiguro Megumi, at the very least, was a peer of his. When Reiger wanted to see his [Ten Shadow Techniques], Megumi agreed without hesitation. Though he appeared cold on the surface, he had a warm heart, which made Reiger indebted to him.

Therefore, in every sense, Reiger had to take this journey.

"Is this okay?" Nanami Kento turned to Reiger and said, "The Cursed Technique Regulatory Authority has issued an official notice. Any attempt to release Mr. Gojo’s seal will be considered a crime as well. If you do this, they will have more justification to trouble you, putting you in their grasp."

To Nanami Kento’s words, Reiger just glanced at him.

"Do you think those so-called notifications have any effect on me?" Reiger said calmly, "Or do you think I care about being at odds with the entire world of sorcery?"

Nanami Kento was silent.

He could see that this young man held no attachment to the world of sorcery.

He only entered the Jujutsu High School to learn curse techniques.

Now that he had learned enough, becoming a curse mage comparable to Gojo Satoru, he wouldn’t care even if he could never return to Jujutsu High.

As for orders from the higher-ups in the world of sorcery...

What a joke?

Common assets... If Reiger weren’t too busy to deal with such shortsighted people or engage with fools whose minds were filled with power and benefits and blind to reality, he would have liked to see if those so-called high-ups who issued such notices would dare to be so absurd if faced with him directly.

"What do you plan to do?"

Nanami Kento asked with a frown.

"I’ll do whatever needs to be done."

Reiger replied with a redundant answer.

But that was indeed his plan.

As for searching for someone, while he’s not a professional, he isn’t without means in that area.

Whether using an intelligence-detection magic like the [Eye of God] to search the world or summoning a large number of little goblins to spread out and search, all are feasible methods.

If the bodies of Geto Suguru, Fushiguro Megumi, and Gojo Satoru had some distinct symbolic items, Reiger might have been able to resolve everything with a single [Object Locator].

Now, Reiger needed time.

Time to search for Gojo Satoru and Fushiguro Megumi.

"We’ll help you!"

Upon seeing this, Itadori Yuji quickly offered.

Nanami Kento didn’t speak further, nor did he express any intent to refuse.

Evidently, he also wished to rescue Gojo Satoru.

But Reiger shook his head.

"You won’t be of much help to me. It’s better if I do it myself." Reiger said, then turned to Itadori Yuji, "Instead of worrying about my side of things, you should worry about yourself."

"Don’t forget, you’re currently sentenced to death."

With that, Reiger gave Itadori Yuji a direct look.

"Compared to my matters, you should be more concerned about the one inside you who might cause trouble."

Upon hearing this, Itadori Yuji was speechless.

He recalled the recent events in that hellish domain, feeling an uneasy foreboding.

"Do you have any solution?" Itadori Yuji asked, a worried expression on his face, "You’ve mastered so many powerful curse techniques, can’t you handle that entity?"

"I wish I could." Reiger replied calmly, "But I’ve tried, and failed."

[Unwavering Transmutation] is the only technique Reiger possesses that can affect a soul. It failed to capture Ryomensukuna’s soul, allowing him to escape. Even trying again would likely result in the same outcome.

As for magic... Reiger has mastered over a thousand spells with various effects.

However, none of the magic from the Earth Mistake World or the Akasha continent affects souls. The rank magic from the Overlord world contains some that target souls, but they fall under the necromancy category.

Unfortunately, necromancy is Bone Proud Heaven’s specialty. Being known for his caution, Bone Proud Heaven intentionally avoided trading necromancy spells due to his wariness of Reiger.

Thanks to this, necromancy spells among the rank magic Reiger mastered are few and low-grade, considered trivial by Bone Proud Heaven even if leaked.

This means Reiger truly lacks the means against souls, and can only express regret over Itadori Yuji’s situation.

Unless he risks using the all-powerful super-tier magic [Wish Upon a Star], [Unwavering Transmutation] remains his best soul-related technique.

Considering [Wish Upon a Star] requires experience points as a cost, who knows how much it would take to manipulate the soul of a Curse King?

Frankly, Ryomensukuna’s existence is not bothersome enough for Reiger to pay any price to remove him.

This is something Itadori Yuji himself should worry about.

"Well then, I’m off." Reiger smiled at the two, "Take care of yourselves."

Leaving these words, Reiger turned and left.

"Wait..."

Itadori Yuji wanted to say something more but was stopped by Nanami Kento.

"Let him go." Nanami Kento said, "He’s strong enough to manage alone, and operating alone is more convenient. If we follow, we might become a hindrance."

With that, giving Itadori Yuji no opportunity to object, Nanami Kento added another line.

"We have our own tasks to handle. Splitting up benefits everyone."

Upon hearing this, Itadori Yuji was a bit stunned.

"What tasks?"

He asked, puzzled.

"Jujutsu High." Nanami Kento said with a profound look, "Don’t forget, Principal Yaga has also been sentenced to death."

"We must go to his aid."

...

Tokyo, Shibuya.

After the Shibuya incident, this special administrative district and tourist spot has transformed into an almost deserted ghost town.

The streets were a mess, littered with debris, rubble, and bloodstains, along with bodies of humans and monsters alike.

Part of the buildings had collapsed into ruins, with ominous shadows occasionally darting by, instilling fear.

"Caw—Caw—Caw—"

A flock of crows flew back and forth over Shibuya, seemingly aimless but actually searching repeatedly, as if looking for something.

"Whoosh!"

At a certain moment, Reiger’s figure suddenly appeared in the sky over Shibuya, directly exposed to the crows.

"Caw—Caw—Caw—"

The crows immediately became agitated.

Reiger, however, remained indifferent, making no effort to hide, simply spreading his arms.

"[First Rank Monster Summoning]."

Instantly, a massive magic array unfolded beneath Reiger’s feet in the air.

From the array emerged small-sized fairies, fluttering around Reiger like butterflies.

"Go."

At Reiger’s command, the fairies spread out, flying in various directions.

"Hopefully, everything goes smoothly."

Reiger watched the fairies leave, and after a while, he descended towards the ground.
