Jujutsu Kaisen: My spells have no limit

That night, in Shibuya Ward, Tokyo.

Shibuya, one of the 23 special wards of Tokyo, is located in the west-central part of Tokyo and is considered one of the three major sub-centers of Tokyo, along with Shinjuku and Ikebukuro.

It covers an area of ​​approximately 15.11 square kilometers, with a population density of around 15000 people per square kilometer.

It's a fashion mecca, a melting pot of subcultures, and a street for young people.

The location here is extremely valuable, and the neighborhood is open 24/7.

At this moment, Lin Yi and Nanami Kento, the first-level sorcerer who came to meet him, were standing in front of an empty mid-to-high-rise apartment building in Shibuya Ward, looking at the exquisitely decorated but uninhabited apartment.

He now understood why the High School of Sorcery hadn't sent Ijichi Kiyotaka, the assistant supervisor, to liaise with him, but instead sent Nanami Kento, a Level 1 Sorcery Master.

Lin Yi and Nanami Kento are currently located in an area adjacent to Yoyogi Park, close to the JR Yamanote Line and Keio Line.

In such a convenient location near a park, there shouldn't be an uninhabited mid-to-high-rise boutique apartment building. Looking at the apartment rental flyers posted on the bulletin board in front of the apartment building, the rent is even more drastically reduced, ranging from 5 to 8 yen, which translates to 3000 to 4800 yuan per month.

In Shibuya Ward, the monthly rent for a mid-to-high-rise boutique apartment like this ranges from 16 yen to 20 yen, with the higher price being the highest.

"Wow, that's so cheap! Even if you were a corpse lying in the house, it wouldn't cost this much."

Lin Yi jokingly commented on the rental flyer on the billboard, and then took out the observation sunglasses for observing cursed spirits sponsored by the College of Curses from his pocket and put them on. He could only see a few specks of cursed power emerging from this uninhabited apartment building, but he could not see any cursed spirits.

"Mr. Lin Yilang, please leave. It's my overtime work time now."

Compared to Lin Yi's strong heart, Nanami Kento, who had extensive experience in exorcising cursed spirits, tore off his tie and tied it to his right hand, drew out a blunt knife wrapped in white cloth from his back, and prepared to storm the enemy camp alone.

Lin Yi knew that this was the technique of Qi Haijian: the effect of the Ten-Stroke Incantation.

This technique not only allows Nanami Kento to forcibly create a 73% weakness critical hit on his opponent, but also divides Nanami Kento's spell power output into a range based on his part-time job experience, similar to that of an office worker.

Nine to six is ​​the normal working hours. During this time, Nanami Kento's spell power output is about 80% of normal. In exchange, once this time is over, Nanami Kento's spell power output will stabilize at 120%. Combined with the spell: Ten-Stroke Spell, which forcibly creates the active effect of weakness critical hit, Nanami Kento's output is also top-notch among level one spellcasters.

Lin Yibing ignored Qi Haijianren's advice, climbed over the wall, and opened the gate from the inside to invite Qi Haijianren in.

"Mr. Nanami, now that I've chosen to become one of your informants, I think there are some things I need to get involved in. Of course, if things go wrong, I'll run away immediately so as not to distract you."

Nanami Kento looked at Lin Yi standing at the door, but did not give an answer or step inside. He just stared at him.

The two stared at each other for a moment until Lin Yi gave in and silently walked out of the door, gesturing for them to enter.

Only then did Qi Haijian enter the empty apartment building and chant an incantation.

"Born of darkness, from darkness to darkness, cleansing away all filth and defilement."

A black, semi-transparent barrier "canopy" fell from the sky. Because it was in a residential area, the barrier did not expand its range this time. The range just covered the mid-to-high-rise boutique apartment building, separating Lin Yi from the entrance.

Seeing this, Lin Yi could only shrug helplessly. He had hoped to take advantage of this opportunity to spend time with Nanami Kento and extract some information about Gojo Satoru from him.

Unexpectedly, the other party was so dedicated that they didn't let him, the informant, appear at the scene of the exorcism.

"Ha, what a gentle, kind, and responsible adult you are. But I'm older than you, is it really necessary to worry about me so much? But then again, isn't this street a bit too quiet?"

Lin Yi looked around at the equally deserted apartment building. Based on his experience, he could naturally tell that it was different from the apartment building in front of him where the cursed spirit had appeared. Before he could figure out the reason, his phone rang again. The caller ID showed: Kiyotaka Ijichi.

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

"Mr. Ijichi, the residents in the vicinity have been evacuated."

"Yes, thank you for your hard work."

Ijichi Kiyotaka stood on the rooftop, looking through binoculars at the mid-to-high-rise boutique apartment building where Nanami Kento had set up a barrier spell, and next to him were his colleagues reporting on the completion of the residents' evacuation work.

This is the procedure used by the High School of Spellcasting to exorcise cursed spirits in the urban area.

First, the "Window" of the auxiliary supervisory representative observes signs of the cursed spirit's activity, collects information, determines the cursed spirit's level based on the information, reports the collected information to the higher-ups in the cursed magic world, and dispatches a cursed magician corresponding to the cursed spirit's level to exorcise it.

The auxiliary supervisor, on the other hand, represents the higher-ups in the sorcery world in coordinating with relevant departments to evacuate and shelter residents within the radius of the cursed spirit's location, so that sorcerers can carry out the exorcism of the cursed spirit and prevent ordinary people from witnessing the cursed spirit and causing widespread panic.

They are also responsible for observing the exorcism of cursed spirits by sorcerers and being ready to call for help at any time.

Since most cursed spirits are not very intelligent and only wander around the area where they were born, such a large evacuation commotion is not afraid of being noticed by the cursed spirits.

After giving his colleague a brief instruction, Ijichi Kiyotaka also looked at the phone in his hand. Having been observing from a distance, he had naturally seen the interaction between Lin Yi and Nanami Kento. Like Nanami Kento, he was skeptical of Lin Yi's true identity, as this ordinary person who had repeatedly appeared in incidents related to the Jujutsu High School.

It was precisely because he had doubts about Lin Yi that he approved Lin Yi's application for auxiliary supervision, in order to keep him under his watchful eye and find out Lin Yi's true identity.

As for why he didn't share his doubts with Gojo Satoru, the reason was simple: Gojo Satoru was too busy.

As the strongest sorcerer in modern times, Gojo Satoru is practically always on a business trip or on his way to one.

Although Japan, as the vortex of jujutsu Kaisen's world, provides more than 80% of the world's jujutsu spirits and jujutsu masters, this does not mean that other countries and regions do not produce top-tier or high-level jujutsu spirits, after all, the world's population base is what it is.

These cursed spirits basically all need to be exorcised by Gojo Satoru, and only Gojo Satoru's limitless teleportation technique can quickly appear in any corner of the world.

Judging from Lin Yi's current behavior, it's far from the point where it needs to be reported to Gojo Satoru.

"The strength and frequency of cursed spirits have increased considerably in recent years..."

As Kiyotaka Ijichi put his phone back in his pocket, he was thinking to himself, a veteran assistant supervisor. Just then, a strange cry came from his colleague who was supposed to keep watch with Ijichi.

Ichiji looked in the direction of the sound and saw the other person kneeling on the ground, his face purple and foaming at the mouth, looking like he was having difficulty breathing.

"Hey! What's wrong with you? Cheer up!"

Kiyotaka Ichichi was shocked as he watched his colleague's vital signs gradually disappear. Was he poisoned? A cursed spirit? Or a curse master?

As he pondered this, Ijichi Kiyotaka felt a tightness around his neck, followed by a feeling of suffocation. Looking down, he saw a tentacle with sharp spikes at the end tightly wrapped around his neck, lifting him into the air. A graceful figure slowly emerged from the air, revealing itself to Ijichi Kiyotaka's vision.

"You lowlifes are always bothering my work. It's time to start charging interest from the High School of Spellcasting."

Spiked tentacles hovered over Kiyotaka Ijichi's forehead, specks of purple venom seeping from the spikes, threatening to take the life of this veteran assistant director.

"Bang! Bang!"

Two sharp, brief gunshots rang out. One shot severed the spikes of the tentacle, and the other severed the tentacle wrapped around Ijichi's neck, causing Ijichi to fall to the ground, coughing incessantly.

"Who goes there!"

Ichi and the female curse master looked together in the direction from which the gunshots came.

Suddenly, Lin Yi appeared on the rooftop, holding a Colt Python revolver that he had named "White Ivory," with a wisp of smoke dissipating from the muzzle.

"As you can see, a city hunter just passing by~"
