It was not until this moment that the cursed spirit hiding in the locker realized that something was wrong! However, it still did not know where the danger was.
——It didn't know what kind of threat the human in front of it, with his hands folded as if praying, posed to it.
Then, the cursed spirit heard the crisp chirping of insects.
Boom boom boom boom boom!!!
[Hahahahaha! That’s it! It’s really well done!]
Seeing his expected results being perfectly realized in poetry, especially the confused look of the cursed spirit who didn't know where the danger came from when he was about to die, Gojo Satoru slapped his thigh and laughed happily.
And Geto Suguru was also in a very good mood when he saw how capable his junior was.
But unlike Gojo Satoru who had a more aggressive personality, he noticed that his junior looked weak but was actually strong on the inside. He also noticed that the snowflakes of poetry's curse crushed three floors of the building in one breath.
Immediately afterwards, the building began to produce a series of chain reactions, with the big hole created by the poem as the center, like a domino effect whose important supporting pillars had been pulled out.
[I guess Mr. Ye Moth and the big shots above will have a headache after this~]
Well, it’s none of his business anyway, so he doesn’t need to worry about it, so Geto Xiayou also started laughing.
Seeing these two sorcerers teaching Poetry, who already possessed dangerous power, an even more dangerous way of fighting, the cursed spirits and cursers of the Jujutsu Kaisen world and the insect possessors of the Insect Song world all cursed angrily.
“““What’s so funny about this!!?”””
31. Then banned (4000)
This was her first official job as a sorcerer, and her poetry performance was rated "good".
This is an evaluation that would make poetry happy, but it is also an evaluation that would make Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru sweat.
——Do a simple arithmetic problem.
The academy will give the sorcerers who accept the mission a reward that is commensurate with their sorcerer level and the danger rating of the mission. This reward is very high compared to most platinum blue-collar and gold-collar workers.
A student from a poor family can easily support a family of five by becoming a third-level sorcerer.
Where does the remuneration that colleges pay their students come from?
The answer is: most of them come from the client who sends the commission.
Generally speaking, in order to prevent ordinary people from knowing the existence of the curse and thus generating fear, which would in turn lead to the growth of negative spiritual power and the breeding of curse spirits, high-level experts will block the information about the curse.
The top government officials understand the nature of the curse, so governments around the world are basically implementing plans to cooperate with sorcerers to block information related to the curse.
But completely blocking information, not to mention that with the rise of the Internet era, various short video platforms and self-media have made the power to show the truth no longer bound by traditional media, let's just talk about one problem:
What if something really happens?
If you leave the cursed spirit that has attacked people alone, it will soon become a creature that even a first-level sorcerer will find difficult to deal with, even a fourth-level sorcerer can easily deal with.
To put it cruelly, ordinary people are like free bait for sorcerers and the government's surveillance system.
Wherever the bait is eaten, the sorcerer will know where a cursed spirit that needs to be exorcised has been born.
Among ordinary people who have truly encountered the curse of a spirit and whose relatives and friends have been harmed, few people would stubbornly insist that they believe in science and that curses and spirits absolutely do not exist.
If you really encounter a curse attack, and you are convinced that you have encountered a supernatural threat, most ordinary people will choose two solutions:
1: Call the police and seek help from the government.
2: Or go to nearby temples, shrines, churches, dojos, and other groups of people who gather together for faith and who ordinary people believe may have the power to exorcise demons, and seek their help.
For both of these, including looking for well-known psychics or psychics on the Internet, there is a high probability that they will be guided to contact the service organization under the jurisdiction of the High Commissioner, and under the guidance of the clerk, they will make a commission and pay remuneration, and then emphasize the obligation of confidentiality afterwards.
In other words, the process for a sorcerer to resolve a cursed spirit is basically this: the victim/client submits a commission and pays a fee, the high school accepts it, and after charging a certain handling fee, part of the fee is used as the sorcerer's salary. The sorcerer completes the commission and receives the salary, and the matter is settled.
This is a fairly stable and very simple line, and although many things have changed over time, the general process remains largely the same.
But on the other hand, the antonym of simple is that it cannot withstand any major unexpected situations.
The client, the senior expert, the sorcerer... no matter who does something "big" that exceeds what this simple process can handle, the process will easily fall into a state of collapse.
As the top of the interest chain of this system, the High Commissioner is often the party that bears the risk of process collapse - for example, if the client conceals information or fails to report it when aware of the situation, if the superiors of the High Commissioner have a grudge against the sorcerer and deliberately assign dangerous tasks to the sorcerer that exceed his or her level, or if the sorcerer causes a big mess, the High Commissioner will usually clean up the incident for free.
But there is a limit to that.
For example, in Poetry's first mission, although the problem faced by the hospital was a difficulty that forced them to give up the operation, what they needed to solve the problem was not to rebuild the hospital, but just to offer a reward for the sorcerer to solve the second-level curse spirit -
The reward this time is high, but not enough to break a hospital's bank.
Taking this into account, this wave of poetry is equivalent to your classmate telling you that there is a cockroach in his house that keeps crawling out from under the bed, which is very disgusting, so he treats you to an old popsicle, hoping that you, who are famous for being brave in the class, can find the cockroach and throw it away.
Then you gave a thumbs up and said it was no problem, then turned around and found a rocket launcher, and with a bang, you blew the cockroaches and the roof of your classmate's house into the sky.
Is this okay?
——That’s no problem!
The cockroaches are indeed gone - that's all the college executive could say.
Then, while paying the compensation for the house with tears in their eyes, they took advantage of the special characteristics of the industry to suppress the price.
What will happen if a naughty classmate takes out a rocket launcher to blow up cockroaches?
Before the new century, the attitude of technical colleges was mostly to suppress students.
Even after entering the new century, those conservative old men in Gaozhuan felt that they had become much more open-minded. They would most likely put this sorcerer who could destroy a building with just a wave of her hand into cold storage.
However, poetry even got a "good" grade after returning to the technical college...
This brings us to the value of Gojo Satoru being the "strongest sorcerer" and heir to the Three Great Families, and Geto Suguru being the "special-grade sorcerer."
In order to pay attention to the mental health of his good schoolmate, Gojo Satoru had a long conversation with those old guys after returning to the technical high school.
Although he was born with the awakened Six Eyes and his Unlimited Techniques were quite advanced, he was still some distance away from being invincible.
This is reflected in the attitude of the top brass, who are much more spirited than they were a few years ago.
Even though Gojo Satoru threatened, spoke nicely, threatened, and threatened for a long time, after the poem got an "excellent" grade, he was still restricted from taking ordinary tasks.
The selection of tasks needs to be based on local conditions - that is, sparsely populated, backward economic conditions, and not low-level cursed spirits.
Poetry is quite satisfied with this.
"What?! It's not the poem's fault!" Of course, the good sister Anmoto Manye reprimanded her sister for her behavior of aggrieving her.
Recently, her classmates, who have a different opinion of her because the protagonist in the video played on the screen is Manye's sister, have gathered around her to help her denounce the evil high-level officials in the world of sorcery.
In the fictional reasoning world, the one-handed and one-eyed girl known as the "God of Wisdom" also frowned slightly, looking at the picture on the light curtain and fell into deep thought.
"It's rare to see you frown so tightly."
Kuro Sakuragawa placed a cup of coffee in front of Kotoko Iwanaga. After receiving her thanks, he took his own cup of coffee and sat opposite Kotoko Iwanaga.
Kotoko Iwanaga is regarded as the "God of Wisdom" by monsters. It is her duty to solve the monsters' troubles and indirectly maintain the stability of the human world.
She is very smart, and with the resources she can mobilize due to her status as a eldest daughter, she has always been able to fulfill her duties well.
Although she is small and looks like a primary school student, she has a calmness and composure that many so-called elites in the industry find difficult to demonstrate.
Therefore, the fact that she displayed such blatant irritability made Sakuragawa Kuro curious - what could be so difficult for this young lady and the god of monsters?
If he knew that, he would have known one of Kotoko's weaknesses.
"That's because I have a reason for making that expression."
Iwanaga Kotoko took a sip of the coffee that her senior, Kuro, handed to her. They were currently in the apartment that Kuro Sakuragawa rented. Kuro Sakuragawa, who had no particular liking for coffee, made coffee that focused more on functionality than tasting its aroma and taste... This did not make Iwanaga Kotoko's expression show any signs of weakness.
"So, that's the reason. Could you tell me about it?"
"You're welcome. What is our relationship, Jiulang-senpai?"
"It's just an ordinary relationship between a senior and a junior~"
"Ordinary seniors and juniors wouldn't be alone at the senior's house on their day off...Okay, okay, if I continue, the senior's expression will become sad, so I'll make it short - I just feel unwilling."
"Not reconciled?"
"Yes! I won't accept it! Well, of course I won't accept it!"
Although he didn't know why Kotoko was so unwilling, her angry expression didn't make Yinchuan Jiulang feel worried. Instead, he thought that Kotoko was very cute...
In order to cover up this, Sakuragawa Kuro laughed unceremoniously. Iwanaga Kotoko cast a dissatisfied look at the senior.
"Really? Will making me upset make you happy? If so, how about changing the reason for making me upset? This way, both of us can be happy, isn't it a win-win situation? Win-win~!"
Iwanaga Kotoko slapped the bed twice and said, "Right here, right here!" Considering whose room this was, Sakuragawa Kuro sighed helplessly.
"Can't you be a little more reserved~"
"If you like reserved women, I can become reserved~. But in your case, whether you like reserved women is another matter. If I become reserved, then I have no chance, right? Compared to Miss Saki? After all, I'm not the mature lady type that you like—"
Iwanaga Kotoko touched her chest with both hands, and Sakuragawa Kuro avoided her eyes. He couldn't say anything in front of this girl who was more experienced than himself, so he had to change the subject and said, "So, you haven't told me the reason why you frowned."
"Well, since senior wants to know, I'll tell you." Iwanaga Kotoko is very good at judging the degree of what a man likes.
Chasing too closely can easily make people back off, and being too outspoken will only make the person you like avoid you - that's something a smart woman won't do.
You have to grasp the degree and distance well~
Stay close to the man you like, and let him feel how important you are in her heart. At the same time, it is her personality to say less dirty jokes, which can effectively break through the defense of a conservative person like Jiulang, so that he won't really treat her as a child...
It all comes down to this body of hers. If she had signed the contract with the monsters not when she was still young, but when she graduated from high school, or even better, college, she would have grown into a nice body that Jiulang-senpai liked, right?
That's much more effective than the 100 dirty jokes she'd find the chance to insert into the conversation!
"I feel that compared to the sorcerer in the light curtain, the situation here is too petty."
"How to say?"
"Although the academy on the other side of the light curtain has many problems and its simple and primitive task system is just like the Adventurer's Guild in the game, which lacks accuracy, it is undoubtedly very flexible. It is an organization that makes people feel systematic, organized, civilized, and modern."
"The state cooperates with the sorcerers to search for information to prevent the spread of panic and guide the victims to find a solution. At the same time, the sorcerers can legitimately have high salaries and high status. Speaking of this, don't you think it's a bit unfair, senior?"
"If you put it that way, it's true."
Kuro Sakuragawa, accompanied by Kotoko Iwanaga, the girl who is the God of Wisdom, has solved many incidents that troubled the lives of ordinary people.
According to the standards of the sorcerers in the light curtain, it is completely correct to say that he is a qualified sorcerer.
However, not only did he not receive any salary during this process, he even had to deal with and coordinate the conflicts among the parties involved in the monster rebellion.
He was a poor student, and the idea of getting paid for helping to solve supernatural incidents was very attractive to him. He was even more envious of the existence of an assistant supervisor who was responsible for all work other than directly solving the cursed spirits.
"That's the situation here. Exorcists, mediums, psychics, monks and priestesses with special abilities, etc., all have neither detailed contact information nor a unified entrustment system."
"Of course, there is no cooperation with the country. The senior who commissioned me some time ago also knows that even the helmsmen of giant companies that my family can't even compare to are still at the stage of "I use whatever worldview I believe in" when it comes to supernatural beings, that is, supernatural life such as monsters. There is no institution to train psychics, and there is no welfare guarantee -"
Kotoko Iwanaga sighed and rolled her cute face on the single bed in Kuro's house, looking quite weak.
"Obviously, the Japan in the light curtain is still Japan. The psychics here have taken the liberty of calling their industry a "circle" in a mysterious way. The result of deliberately separating themselves from ordinary people is that even ordinary people don't take them seriously. Why don't they understand that this is not okay~"
"It should change later, right? After all, the light screen has been played~" Sakuragawa Kuro pointed to the sky. Iwanaga Kotoko said something muffled, but Kuro didn't hear it clearly.
On the other hand, there are many people who also envy the ordinary people in the light curtain for having a clear channel to solve the supernatural events they encounter.
For example, Yotsuya Miko, she now dreams of having a channel to call professionals...
Unfortunately, there is no such channel for her to call, and she doesn't know whether those self-proclaimed psychics who claim to be "psychic masters" on the Internet have any real evidence.
After thinking for a while, Yotsuya Miko hesitantly stretched out his hand and broadcast what he typed on his mobile phone onto the light screen.
"Is there a true psychic master? I have a problem that I want to discuss with you. Here is my contact information: 933-0XX."
32. Comfort our heroes
Ever since his first mission as a sorcerer, Shishi was ordered not to use his magic in the outside world at will.
Objectively speaking, this kind of order cannot be blamed on others.
In stark contrast to other sorcerers, the poetry technique was too destructive! Moreover, unlike other sorcerers, she did not have extraordinary physical fitness and did not have much experience as a sorcerer...
This means that if she encounters a cursed spirit, she will use her snowflake technique no matter what if a fight is required, and then destroy the cursed spirit and the commissioning site.
Letting Shizi take on ordinary tasks would ultimately create an additional financial black hole for the Polytechnic Institute, so the best approach would be to limit the number and types of tasks she takes on, and only give her those commissions where "it would be OK even if she had to completely destroy the scene."
So poetry was banned... It's just like those heroes who are extremely strong and disruptive to the balance when they first appear, and then the official starts to make up for it and nerf them in various ways.
Poetry itself likes its current situation very much.
After all, she had been lacking confidence in herself for a long time. When the Higher Vocational College issued a notice prohibiting her from accepting tasks at will, Shi Shi was actually relieved.
Many people like the feeling of destroying intact things with their own hands, such as being the first to leave their footprints on the white snow after a snowfall, or having a hard object in their hand that is just right, and always like to damage a few flowers and plants as they walk by.
