The magnetic field rotation that began in Jujutsu Kaisen
Chapter 13: Guessing, Telephone
Shen Er remained silent for a while.
"I don't know."
"Perhaps it's due to a curse from heaven. My body... is different from ordinary people. I don't need to eat so much to maintain high-intensity activity."
"Heaven and curse..."
Dongyang Ping murmured.
His mind raced, countless possibilities flashing through his mind.
Zero magical power, in exchange for the ultimate physical body.
But the body needs energy to function, so where does that energy come from?
If food intake is insufficient, then there must be other sources of energy.
Cursed power?
No, it has no magical power at all.
What is that?
Suddenly, an idea struck him.
"What!"
Dong Yangping slowly spoke: "Tell me, is it possible... that your 'zero curse power' isn't truly 'none'?"
Shen Er frowned: "What do you mean?"
"What I mean is, perhaps you do have magical power, but your magical power is 'bound' in another form—not released to form spells, but internalized to maintain your physical body."
Dongyang Ping's thoughts became clearer as he spoke: "The Heavenly Bond and the Curse Binding are a forced exchange, right? You give up your curse power in exchange for a superhuman physical body. But curse power is essentially energy. What if that energy doesn't disappear, but instead changes form?"
Dong Yangping stood up and paced around the room.
"For example, you yourself also generate magical power, but the moment this magical power is generated, it is absorbed by your body to maintain your super-physical body."
After all, neither of the two emperors and tyrants had ever trained their bodies.
"That explains it!"
The more Dong Yangping thought about it, the more likely it seemed. After all, this wasn't a comic book or anime, but a real world.
We can't view the world through the lens of anime or comics, since the original creators added to the designs as they drew.
Who knows what it will turn out to be in the end?
Shen Er listened, his expression gradually changing from doubt to seriousness.
This was an angle he had never considered, and no one else would think of it either. After all, the Zen monks looked at him like he was a monkey, and no one would study these things.
"I don't know, I'm not interested, whatever."
She turned and walked towards the door, but stopped abruptly when she reached it.
"Dongyang".
He rarely called Dongyangping by his name directly.
"Um?"
"Thank you for everything you've done for Huihui."
Shen Er didn't turn around: "I will repay this favor. When you need it."
After saying that, he opened the door and went out.
The footsteps faded into the distance.
Dong Yangping stood in the room, motionless for a long time.
His thoughts were still on the conversation they had just had.
Heaven's curses, spells, energy transformations...
If Shen's power originates from some kind of "mechanism," then what about other powers?
After all, there are more than two "Heaven and Curse Bindings"; there is also a Mechanical Maru who exchanged his congenitally disabled body for unparalleled curse power.
The price is a bit high.
Not only were his hands and feet severed, but he also couldn't be exposed to sunlight.
Dong Yangping couldn't understand it; he wasn't a top student, nor was he a sorcerer.
There's no point in making half-baked guesses, so I'll just stop thinking about it.
Dong Yangping did not continue training in the afternoon.
The body needs time to digest and absorb the nutrients; overtraining can be counterproductive.
He turned on his computer and began to handle some tasks.
The first step was to contact the Wenzang (a Buddhist organization) to confirm the progress of the incantation tools.
Wenzang replied that three low-level spell tools that met the criteria had been found and were undergoing final cleaning; they could be delivered within two days.
Dongyangping instructed him to deliver it directly to the address in Saitama Prefecture.
Next, we checked the situation on the family business side.
Although he didn't want to take over the family business, as one of the heirs of the Dongyang conglomerate, he had to maintain a certain level of attention.
Moreover, he needs money—a lot of money.
Customizing training equipment, utilizing top-tier medical resources, establishing intelligence networks, and procuring future magical artifacts... all of these are extremely expensive.
Fortunately, the Dongyang family is not short of money.
He quickly reviewed several financial reports, replied to a few emails, and arranged several investments.
These things took him two hours.
After finishing these tasks, Dongyang Ping opened the box containing the spellbooks.
He took out a book titled "Illustrated Guide to Cursed Spirits: Common Types and Countermeasures" and began to read it.
This time, he read very slowly.
Read each page carefully, take notes on the important parts, and mark the parts you don't understand.
The classification of cursed spirits: Level 4, Level 3, Level 2, Level 1, and Special Level.
Each type's characteristics, weaknesses, and common locations.
The ranking of sorcerers is as follows: Level 4, Level 3, Level 2, Level 1, and Special Level.
Classification of techniques: Innate techniques, Acquired techniques, and bondage and contract.
The basic principles of barrier techniques.
The making and use of magical implements.
……
Knowledge flowed into his mind like a gentle stream.
This is real knowledge, concrete knowledge, knowledge from another world I've never encountered before.
Dongyangping had never studied so seriously before, and he didn't know where Wenzang had gotten such specific and systematic knowledge of the world of incantations.
Dongyang Ping watched with great interest.
At 6 p.m., Tanaka delivered dinner again.
Both meals were enormous, and Dong Yangping devoured them within forty minutes.
When he finished eating, Tanaka handed him a phone.
"Young master, the master is looking for you."
Dong Yangping took a deep breath; sure enough, they had found him.
Dong Yangping's father is a 62-year-old man who started from scratch, made it onto the rich list, and built a vast business empire.
Despite his advanced age, he is not weak; on the contrary, he is full of energy and does everything himself.
The only downside might be that there are too many women.
This resulted in Dongyang Ping having 16 nominal mothers.
Unlike his older brothers, sisters, and younger brothers and sisters, the old man paid quite a bit of attention to Dongyangping.
After all, he's the only oddball in the whole family, so it's impossible not to pay attention to him.
Unfortunately, Dong Yangping did not achieve anything significant. Having lived his entire life, he had absolutely no interest in business.
Dong Yangping also knew very well that unsuccessful people have no voice.
Especially for men, when they are not successful, no one listens to them.
Therefore, except when facing his younger siblings, Dong Yangping always acts more and speaks less when dealing with his older siblings and parents.
But even the most taciturn person can't resist someone's constant care.
Dong Yangping still answered the phone.
"Father!"
"Ah Ping, what are you doing out there these days?"
"Didn't Tanaka tell you?"
"..."
"I already know you don't want to go back to work, so what are your plans lately? If you want to start your own business, I'll support you."
The old man couldn't really say what his emotions were right now, after all, he was still a little unaccustomed to his eccentric son, who was most like him, suddenly moving out to live.
Dongyang Ping opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Even the most resolute person cannot be completely heartless.
Dongyang Ping said in a gentler tone, "Father, I just came out to clear my head. After all, I've been staying at home for too long, and I need to see the outside world."
The old man wasn't as serious as before: "Alright, walk around more, be careful, and come home when you're tired. Your younger brother and sister miss you quite a bit."
"You don't need to worry about starting a business or anything like that. Our family has enough money for you to live on for eight lifetimes. You also have your older brother and sister."
"Make sure you get a few girlfriends when you have free time..."
Just like he always did with Dong Yangping, the old man chatted on and on, giving him a long string of instructions…
Dong Yangping was speechless. His own father was quite an oddball. If he hadn't been reborn and had decades more of life experience, he would have been spoiled rotten long ago.
In the end, Dong Yangping couldn't help but ask his grandfather to inform his older brothers, sisters, and cousins to relocate local industries overseas as much as possible and shift their focus abroad.
