Jujutsu Kaisen: My spells have no limit

A mixed-use commercial and residential building in Ome Street, Shinjuku Ward.

Lin Yi was sitting at his computer desk browsing the messages he had left on the message board at the east exit of Shinjuku Station when suddenly the doorbell rang.

When he opened the door, Xia Youjie was waiting for him at the entrance with a pink-haired woman holding some documents.

Good morning, Ichi-chan~

"You're really quite enthusiastic towards me, Xia Youjie."

Lin Yi ignored Xia Youjie's enthusiastic nickname for him, made a sarcastic remark, and then opened the door to let the two of them in.

Xia Youjie, however, showed no awareness of being a guest. As soon as Lin Yi let him in, he wandered around like the owner of the firm, trying to see Lin Yi's decorating style.

As for the pink-haired beauty that Xia Youjie brought, she also placed the documents she was holding on Lin Yi's desk.

After being entangled by the madman Xia Youjie yesterday and unable to shake him off for the time being, Lin Yi thought it over and over again. In order to continue making money, to comprehend the reversal technique and domain expansion that are standard for strong people in the great vortex of curse power in Japan, and for his own safety, Lin Yi chose to form a 'bond' with Xia Youjie.

"Binding" is a mechanism in the Jujutsu Kaisen world that can be used between jujutsu mages, between intelligent spirits, and even by ordinary people.

Simply put, it means making an oath to God and fulfilling that oath.

The "bond" between Lin Yi and Xia Youjie is essentially a simple cooperative relationship. He can temporarily join Xia Youjie's Panxing Sect camp, but he is only responsible for collecting some cursed spirits in the Tokyo metropolitan area that Xia Youjie takes a liking to. He can also help Xia Youjie create some trouble for the sorcerers at Tokyo Spellcasting Academy, but there will be no direct bloodshed with the Spellcasting Academy.

In exchange, Xia Youjie must provide him with all the information he knows about the world of sorcery. In addition, if anything happens to Xia Youjie, he must forget Lin Yi's existence when he dies.

It doesn't matter if Xia Youjie can't do it. As long as he forms this "bond" with Lin Yi, the will of the Jujutsu Retribution will be forcibly executed the moment Xia Youjie is killed by Gojo Satoru. In this way, even if the thousand-year-old demon Ryousuo takes over Xia Youjie's body, he will not be able to find Lin Yi in Xia Youjie's memories.

As for whether Lu Suo, this ancient demon, would secretly monitor Xia Youjie's every move and thus lock onto Lin Yi, Lin Yi wasn't particularly worried. As long as the other party couldn't learn about him from Xia Youjie's memories, then in Lu Suo's eyes, he was just an unregistered sorcerer working for Xia Youjie, an insignificant nobody.

With the "binding" bond in place, Lin Yi temporarily abandoned his plan to run away and return to China, and went back to his detective agency in Ome Street, Shinjuku Ward.

"Lord Natsuyu, all the information about the world of sorcery is here. How much longer are we going to stay here?"

The pink-haired beauty looked at Xia Youjie, who was wandering around Lin Yi's detective agency, and urged him impatiently.

"Manami, don't you think Ichi-chan's house is great? There's not a single monkey smell."

"That's true, but we didn't have much time this time."

Lin Yi found it amusing to see Xia Youjie and the pink-haired beauty named Manami putting on an act. Seeing that the pink-haired beauty didn't want to stay any longer, he went along with her and continued the conversation.

"Your secretary makes a good point. As a curse master officially wanted by the sorcery world, are you running around like this hoping your best friend will come and chat with you?"

"Don't be so nervous, Ichi-chan. Satoru is very busy and doesn't have much time to notice me. Come on, as our new member, I also need to take you to say hello to the others. Besides, I haven't made it up to you yet."

Upon hearing Lin Yi mention his close friend Gojo Satoru, Xia Youjie, without further ado, put his arm around Lin Yi's shoulder and headed for the door.

Although Lin Yi really didn't want to go, he had no choice but to go along since he was temporarily "bound" by Xia Youjie and had boarded the pirate ship.

-----------------

Akasaka Guesthouse, No. 1, Moto-Akasaka 2-chome, Minato-ku, Tokyo.

This is Japan's largest Western-style palace, which has served as the office space for several government agencies and is now open to the public as a tourist attraction.

Lin Yi never expected that the headquarters of the Panxing Sect, led by Xia Youjie, would be located here.

"How is it, Ichi-chan? Isn't this place nice?"

"Indeed, that's impressive. No wonder Gojo Satoru, who has 'six eyes,' has been searching for you for so many years without success. Who would have thought you were right under his nose?"

"Ichi-chan seems to know a lot about the relationship between me and Satoru, so why are you asking me for information about the world of jutsu?"

"Understanding the relationship between you and Gojo Satoru is not difficult, but I know less about the world of jutsu, especially Japan, the world's great vortex of jutsu power, than you do."

As they were talking, Xia Youjie led Lin Yi to a room and pushed the door open.

"Family members, let me introduce you to our new family member, Mr. Hayashi Ichiro, an unregistered sorcerer working as a City Hunter in Shinjuku Ward, Tokyo~"

Xia Youjie proudly displayed Lin Yi behind him, as if presenting a treasure. Lin Yi was speechless as he looked at these sorcerer members whom Xia Youjie called family.

He had met the twin sisters, Nanako and Mimiko, before. They were two middle school students who were spoiled by Xia Youjie, but who had the most sincere feelings for their adoptive father. When they saw Lin Yi, the new member who had startled them that night, they just sat to the side and turned their heads away in a huff.

The two foreigners sitting on the sofa were a black man named Miguel Auger and a blond, blue-eyed, shirtless, muscular white man with two hearts tattooed on his chest, plus a young man with a scar on his right eye who was looking at Lin Yi with curiosity.

Including Xia Youjie beside him and the pink-haired beauty secretary, this is all the members Xia Youjie wants to create in the era of sorcerers supremacy.

It's fair to say that without Xia Youjie's unparalleled mastery of spell manipulation, Lin Yi would find it ridiculous that such a small group of people would attempt to create a so-called era of supreme sorcerers.

No wonder Wu Tiao Wu hasn't made a move against you, Xia Youjie, despite all these years of causing trouble. It turns out you've been just playing around all along.

"Mr. Xia You, is this guy really a sorcerer? He looks like an ordinary monkey."

The first to speak was the young man with a scar on his right eye who had been eyeing Lin Yi with curiosity. He couldn't see through Lin Yi's disguise under the passive effect of the technique, Two-Level Reversal.

"Hey, Brother Miki, don't look at things with prejudice. Use your heart. Mr. Lin Yilang's technique really surprised me."

The black guy, who had already dealt with Lin Yi once, surprisingly spoke up and said something fair.

Lin Yi didn't bother to explain. He directly activated the active effect of the spell "Two-Level Reversal," switching into his spellcaster form. Instantly, a massive amount of spell power surged from Lin Yi's body, enveloping the entire room.

The surge of magical power startled Xia Youjie and his family members in the room, who looked at Lin Yi with hostile expressions.

Seeing that these people were startled by his sorcerer form, Lin didn't think much of it. He greeted them, checked the location, and it was time to leave.

"Xia Youjie, to be honest, I don't really think much of your idea, but I will keep my promise to you. If there are any spirits you want to subdue, just tell me. You know how to contact me, right?"

Lin Yi patted Xia Youjie on the shoulder and turned to leave.

Xia Youjie wasn't angry that Lin Yi's sorcerer form had frightened his family. He just looked at the pink-haired secretary beside him. This sorcerer named Manami caught up with Lin Yi as he left.

"Mr. Lin Yilang, please come with me. This is compensation from Xia Youjie for damaging your motorcycle that day."

In the courtyard of the Akasaka State Guest House, Lin Yi stared at the motorcycle in front of him, the same model as Kamen Rider W, his eyes gleaming.

This motorcycle was originally Lin Yi's previous Honda CBR1000RRR, but with a different paint job and a modified front end, it became the Kamen Rider W motorcycle "Hardman".

There was also a storage box on the car seat. When I opened it, I found 1,000 ten-thousand-yen bills in large denominations. It was another windfall.

Lin Yi was very satisfied now.

"So from now on, you'll be in charge of contacting me to handle the cursed spirits that Xia Youjie wants to subdue, right, Ms. Manami?"

"Manami Suda, Mr. Hayashi Ichiro, please believe in Lord Natsuyu. He will surely usher in an era that belongs to us sorcerers."

"Yes, yes, I believe you. See you later."

Lin Yi responded with a series of perfunctory replies before finally getting on his motorcycle, satisfied, and riding away.
