Jujutsu Kaisen: My spells have no limit

"Hmm, what is that black thing?"

Lin Yi pointed to a spot in the city's night sky, where he observed the barrier spell "Tent" with his naked eye while in disguise. The actual effect of this barrier spell precedes its visual effect; when you see the "Tent" fall with your naked eye, the barrier spell has already been completed.

Previously, Lin Yi's disguised form was invisible to the naked eye, and he could only rely on his keen intuition and physical abilities far beyond those of ordinary people.

Even in his disguised form, Lin Yi could still vaguely see the fluctuations of curse power and the generation of the barrier technique "Tent". The source of this change was that Lin Yi had previously exorcised more than 30 level-3 curse spirits on a large scale, absorbing 0.1% of their attributes.

"Brother, are you drunk?"

Dongtang Kui looked at Lin Yi beside her, carefully observing the puzzled expression on Lin Yi's face, and made a judgment in her heart.

Among the majority of ordinary people who cannot become sorcerers, some are born with high spiritual vision. When a sorcerer attacks or when the surrounding sorcery energy fluctuates violently, they can directly observe the sorcerer or the things produced by the sorcery energy with their naked eyes. Lin Yi in front of him is such an ordinary person, in Dongtang Kui's opinion.

"How could you have drunk too much? Your older brother can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk! There really is a dark, semi-transparent thing over there."

"But I didn't see anything, brother. Let me take you home first."

"Eh? Why don't you come to my office to rest for the night? The Shinkansen is stopped now, you can't exactly fly back to Kyoto. Come to my office to sleep for the night, my office rooms are quite big."

"No, brother, I suddenly remembered I have something I haven't done yet."

Higashido Aoi declined Lin Yi's invitation. As a level two sorcerer, he felt obligated to go and investigate the situation once he saw a "tent" set up in the Tokyo metropolitan area, in accordance with the sorcerer's code of conduct.

Seeing that he had gotten away with it, Lin Yi took the opportunity to say goodbye to Dongtang Kui.

He had no interest in getting involved in the affairs of the Japanese sorcery world, especially without Xia Youjie scheduling him for work.

Lin Yi made a move to leave, but bumped right into a figure.

Lin Yi was knocked off balance and stumbled, while the other person also fell to the ground. However, Lin Yi recognized who had bumped into him.

"You are, Ms. Takagi?"

The girl who bumped into him in her panic was the same girl Lin Yi had been asked to find—Takagi Yuko, who had mysteriously disappeared while searching for a friend.

What Lin Yi thought was just a simple missing person request turned out to be a bizarre affair. The girl's sister was a fake, and the events that happened to her were even more strange, seemingly involving the millennium-old sorcerer Lu Suo's plan to return to the afterlife.

In order to avoid being targeted by Lu Suo, a thousand-year-old sorcerer, Lin Yi decisively passed this hot potato to Qi Haijianren, a sorcerer expert, to handle. But no matter how he handled it, how did this hot potato end up in his hands again?

Damn it! Are all the higher-ups in the Japanese sorcery world insects?! They can't even handle this simple matter! No, wait, they seem to be insects, damn it!

After recognizing the girl's identity, Lin Yi cursed inwardly. Takagi Yuko also didn't expect to run into Lin Yi on the street. Recognizing Lin Yi's identity, she grabbed his hands in desperation.

"Are you the detective from that night? Detective, please help me, save my classmate!"

Classmate? You runaway girl, where would you get classmates? Wait, did you enroll in a high school of jutsu? Where's Gojo Satoru? Help him!

Lin Yi was a little confused, but once he came to his senses, he quickly sorted out his thoughts, and his mood instantly soured.

A girl who is suspected to be the host of an ancient sorcerer's resurrection through the millennium-old sorcerer Rōsō's scheme. In order not to affect his own resurrection through the scheme, Lin Yi could roughly guess why Gojō Sō had not appeared. This guy was probably sent on a business trip to another place by the higher-ups of the sorcerer world to deal with the trouble of a cursed spirit that appeared out of nowhere. Moreover, this was very likely a bait released by Rōsō, with the purpose of transferring Gojō Sō away.

Oh no, I didn't want to go up against Lu Suo, this thousand-year-old sorcerer, right now!

Lin Yi's mind was in a mess due to the overwhelming amount of information he had received. When he saw the pleading look in the eyes of the girl who was desperately seeking help, Lin Yi stammered.

"I think it's more appropriate to ask the police for help with something like this, Ms. Takagi."

"I'm afraid the Tokyo police can't help us, bro. Takagi-san, you're a student at Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu High School, right? What year are you in?"

"First grade, who are you?"

"Toudou Aoi, a second-year student at Kyoto Prefectural High School of Spellcasting, is the younger brother of Hayashi Ichiro. Like you, I am also a spellcaster, level two."

Aoi Toudou briefly introduced herself, and even took out a similar Jujutsu High School student ID to prove her identity, before looking in the direction from which Yuko Takagi had run.

Lin Yi looked over and saw a beautiful woman with a short haircut and a slender figure, wearing a black leather jacket, walking gracefully toward them, with a leather whip tucked into her waistband.

She exuded an unsettling aura, causing passersby who originally wanted to strike up a conversation with this beautiful woman to hesitate and instead stand far to the side.

From Lin Yi's, Dongtang Kui's, and Takagi Yuko's perspectives, seven or eight cursed spirits surrounded this short-haired beauty. Judging from the fluctuations in their cursed power, they were probably at the second level.

Lin Yi immediately recognized the short-haired beauty.

It's the woman who asked me to find Takagi Yuko before. This woman is actually a sorcerer?

Gan!

Lin cursed under his breath, then heard Dongtang Kui speak up beside him.

"Brother Ichiro, you can see, right?"

"Nonsense, how could I not see this thing that's clearly not human? By the way, can't anyone else see it? And what kind of profession is this sorcerer you were talking about?"

"As expected of my older brother, Toudou Aoi, Ichiro-nii. I'm entrusting Takagi-san to you. Please take her back to her school. As for the others at Tokyo Jujutsu High School and this woman, leave them to me."

Huh? Is that your personality, brother? Since you've said it like that...

Lin Yi started his motorcycle, which he had parked by the roadside, without any hesitation, and called out to Takagi Yuko, who was still unaware of the situation, "Ms. Takagi, get on the bike quickly."

Only after realizing this did Yuko Takagi jump onto the motorcycle and hug Lin Yi's waist. She also realized that in this world of sorcerers, seeking help from the police was not as good as going directly back to the Tokyo Sorcery Academy for assistance.

"Dongtang, be careful!"

"oh!"

Without turning his head, Dongtang Kui replied and gave Lin Yi a thumbs up.

Lin Yi believed in Dongtang Kui's strength. This guy had single-handedly exorcised five level-one cursed spirits and one special-grade cursed spirit in Xia Youjie's Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts incident.

Having received a reply from Higashido Aoi, Lin Yi started the engine and sped away through the streets of Shinjuku with the unlucky girl in the car.
