Kyoto, Kobe, Osaka, Nagasaki, Fukushima, Sendai, Hokkaido...

Soon, sorcerers in almost every city in Neon witnessed the spread of the barrier.

An unknown barrier enveloped the entire Neon in a short period of time!

Suddenly, the entire magic world was in chaos, and the top leaders of the magic world held an emergency meeting to discuss ways to solve the problem.

The final result of the discussion was to send a group of elite sorcerers to try to destroy this suddenly unfolded super-large unknown barrier, while another group of people would ask Tianyuan, the first barrier master in the sorcery world, for his opinion.

Unfortunately, the final results for both sides were not ideal.

The sorcerers who went to try to destroy the barrier found that this unknown barrier that suddenly unfolded above the neon sky was completely untouchable. It neither prevented people from entering or leaving the barrier, nor did they feel that the barrier had any effect on them, the sorcerers.

The sorcerer who asked Tianyuan was told that he was powerless. It seemed that even Tianyuan could not think of any good solution to the barrier that suddenly enveloped the neon.

As such, since the problem could not be solved in a short period of time, and the unknown barrier currently had no apparent effect on the people within it, the magic world had no choice but to let it go, in addition to arranging a group of magicians to keep an eye on the situation.

Tokyo, inside the villa.

"So, this is your plan?"

Since the plan has begun and has been confirmed to be able to be implemented smoothly, Machima now informed Anxiu about this.

"We have taken advantage of the situation to realize the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We have realized the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We have realized the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation!"

"This is like someone living in the ordinary world suddenly learning that ghosts and monsters really exist. It would inevitably cause a great deal of panic within a short period of time, causing negative emotions to surge and giving rise to a large number of cursed spirits."

"It's just that there's really no need to do this. There are obviously simpler ways to do it."

I only heard An Xiu saying this while touching his chin.

There is actually more than one way to use gentle means to stimulate a large amount of negative emotions in humans, especially for Makima. Makima has too many ways to meet the needs originally proposed by Anxiu, such as increasing statutory working hours, raising taxes, canceling holidays, increasing prices, etc. But why did she choose the more troublesome method of publicizing the existence of the cursed spirit, allowing ordinary people to witness the cursed spirit and causing panic?

"If I must give an answer, it's probably because I think this kind of world might be more interesting to the Master."

In response, Makima, who leaned against Anshu, thought for a moment and answered.

"This world is no longer dangerous to us, so I think the master would rather see a brand new world than a world that remains unchanged."

"So, I chose this method to let ordinary people know about the existence of cursed spirits."

"The next step is to change the way the world of spellcasting and spellcasters exist and their image in this world, turning spellcasting into a profession that is active in the eyes of ordinary people."

"Sounds a bit like a hero from the One Punch Man world."

After hearing Machima's explanation, Anxiu admitted that he was indeed interested.

You must know that before this, the world of spells and spellcasters were mainly active in secret, and ordinary people were completely unaware of the existence of spell spirits and spellcasters.

And now, from what Makima said, is she planning to make the curse spirit public, and then let the sorcerers come into the sight of ordinary people, thus turning it into a public professional group with special powers?

Generally speaking, for a minority group like this that is publicly known to possess special powers, there are usually only two outcomes in most worlds: one is to be taken away for sliced-up research, and the other is to gain a very high social status.

With Makima around, the former situation is obviously impossible, so basically only the latter situation will occur.

"It will take some time for the barrier to take effect. In about seven days, ordinary people within the barrier will gradually gain the ability to see cursed spirits."

"In at most half a month, all ordinary people within the barrier will be able to see the cursed spirit directly, like a 'window'. Depending on their physical condition, they will permanently gain the ability of clairvoyance over time."

"That will be the beginning of the changes in this world. Right now, it will take a while for things to ferment."

Chapter 49: The plan of the top leaders of the magic world and cooperation with the government

Half a month has passed since the unknown barrier was deployed in the sky above Neon.

At first, in the previous week, since ordinary people could not see or sense the existence of the barrier, the whole of Neon was calm. Except for the sorcerers sent by the sorcery world who were constantly monitoring and studying the effects of the barrier, there was no change in the lives of ordinary people.

However, since the barrier was initially set up, it was impossible for the surrounding environment to be affected by anyone other than itself, so the sorcerers could only let the barrier shroud Neon and had no way to stop it.

Everything seemed to be no different from before until a week later, when news and posts about ordinary people witnessing ghosts began to appear on the Internet in large numbers.

At first, this situation did not attract attention until the related trend intensified and eventually swept across the entire Neon at a speed that no one could react to.

"Help! There really are ghosts in this world!"

"It's true. I saw a giant octopus covered with eyes in the lake behind our house. No one else in the village could see it at the time, but then suddenly everyone saw it."

"Before, I didn't see anything wrong with the supernatural videos posted by others, until a week ago when I watched the same video, I suddenly saw ghosts!"

"The old man at home didn't lie. There really is a man-eating monster in the mountains to the west."

A large number of ordinary people have gained the ability of clairvoyance, and the number is still increasing, which eventually caused the entire Japanese network environment to become chaotic in a short period of time.

Countless people have stated on the Internet that they have seen supernatural beings such as ghosts and spirits. What's more, some have even read various news reports on the Internet from many years ago and finally witnessed the cursed spirits that were photographed in news reports of many murders and accidents.

Faced with this situation, even the Japanese officials were unable to stop it, or perhaps because the officials also gained the ability to witness the cursed spirits, the situation was also chaotic at the moment.

"This is what happened. Due to an unknown barrier, too many ordinary people gained clairvoyance. Coupled with the fact that there was no prior preparation for this situation, word of the curse has become widely known and is spreading uncontrollably."

"The impact of this incident is too severe, so there are already mass demonstrations in many cities in Japan, demanding that the government tell the truth."

"Machima-sama has immediately contacted the top brass of the Neon government as a high-ranking official in the world of spellcasting, and is negotiating ways to suppress this trend and prevent it from expanding further, but the results are not optimistic."

Directors’ meeting, in the senior management’s conference room.

A group of senior executives who participated in the meeting remotely through Shikigami were listening to the report from the staff in the center of the conference room. In addition, most of the first-level sorcerers in the sorcery world, as well as high-level specialists such as Gojo Satoru, Yaga Masamichi, and Rakuganji Yoshinobu, were also present.

It can be said that the impact of this barrier incident is so great that no sorcerer in the entire sorcery world can stay out of it. Even the two special sorcerers, Yuki Kujuku and Yuta Otsutsuki, who are not in Japan but abroad, are on their way back to Japan.

"There are two ways to handle this incident. The first is to collaborate with official personnel and hire a large number of experts from human society to conduct large-scale guidance. This will prevent the curse from further reaching the public's view. Then, we can quickly destroy the barrier enveloping Neon and gradually suppress this incident over time."

"The second option is that the current situation is out of control. Since that's the case, we should simply make the truth public. By cooperating with the authorities, we can let ordinary people know about the curse and minimize the spread of negative emotions, thereby giving rise to more cursed spirits."

In response, Gojo Satoru, who was sitting on a chair with his legs crossed, said bluntly, "The first solution isn't really a solution anymore, is it? We still can't effectively affect that damn barrier. Unless we can find and kill the person who opened it, trying to prevent ordinary people from being exposed to the curse under these circumstances is completely unrealistic and foolish."

Although the number of cursed spirits born from negative emotions is not large compared to the huge base of ordinary people, it is definitely not small. The reason why it was concealed in the past was that ordinary people could not detect the existence of cursed spirits at all. By the time they were able to detect them, it basically meant that they had close contact with the cursed spirits. If no one came to rescue them, they were already close to death.

In today's age of advanced Internet, a large number of ordinary people have suddenly gained clairvoyance. Even though only a small number of people can witness cursed spirits, it is much easier to spread the existence of cursed spirits than before.

Simply by having two completely different perspectives before and after gaining clairvoyance, one can clearly realize the changes in the world, thus shattering the previous worldview.

It is said that there are two solutions, but in fact, judging from the current situation, there is only one solution.

Cooperate with Japanese officials to publicize the existence of the curse and educate the public about it, so as to prevent further spread of panic.

Compared to being completely unknown, knowing the existence of the curse and the principle of its birth can actually curb some of the fear. After all, people are always more afraid of things they don’t understand at all. As long as they have a certain understanding, the fear will be reduced to a certain extent.

Not only Gojo Satoru, but most of the sorcerers and senior officials with normal intelligence present could understand this, so the specific solution to be adopted was quickly decided.

"Announce the existence of the curse, let the information about the curse reach the public, and at the same time cooperate with Japanese officials to explore ways to further curb negative emotions in society."

"The above plan will be implemented by Machima-sama, the chief director of the Tokyo Spellcasters and a high-ranking member of the General Council."

"The remaining sorcerers will be assigned to their respective areas and stand by to prepare for the large number of cursed spirits that may be born next."

After reading out the specific implementation plan, the meeting came to a temporary end.

However, most of the sorcerers who walked out of the Director's Meeting had complicated expressions on their faces.

The world is changing too fast. The curse that was previously unknown is about to come into the public eye. The curse world that has been hidden in the dark is now going to contact and cooperate with the official human society.

It is unknown what impact this action will have in the future, and whether the existence of the magic world will change as a result.

Chapter 50: Official announcement from Japan, cursed spirits and sorcerers revealed!

"Protest! The government must tell the people the truth about the world!"

"Why do ghosts that used to only exist in fictional stories now really exist? Is the science we used to believe in fake?!"

"Why has the world suddenly changed so drastically? What on earth is the government hiding from us civilians?"

As time goes by, the people of Neon become more and more afraid of the real supernatural creatures such as the Curse Spirit. They are eager to know what these monsters are and why they suddenly appear in their lives.

The once bustling streets began to become deserted. In this atmosphere of panic, most people who lacked a sense of security chose to stockpile supplies and stay at home. All daily necessities on supermarket shelves were sold out.

At the same time, the condemnation of the government on the Internet has intensified. Most Japanese people believe that the government has concealed the truth from them, allowing them to live in a dangerous world full of monsters without knowing it.

In this case, the Japanese government finally responded.

The various monsters that have been seen and circulated on the Internet today are creatures called cursed spirits.

Cursed spirits can use various means to harm or even kill humans, and the human eye cannot detect the existence of cursed spirits.

In order to help the public better understand the cursed spirits, the Japanese cabinet specially held a nationwide press conference, where professionals explained the existence of the cursed spirits to the public.

At the press conference, Japan's current Prime Minister, the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, and several state ministers personally appeared in front of the camera to demonstrate their importance to this matter.

And the person who came to attend the press conference as a high-level representative of the magic world with the support of a group of Japanese executives was none other than Makima.

Through a question-and-answer session with reporters, Makima, who participated in the press conference, explained in detail to the people of Neon about the existence of general curses and cursed spirits in front of the camera, and clarified how and why they were created.

"Cursed spirits are born from the power generated by human negative emotions. This power is called cursed power."

"Negative human emotions, such as fear, disgust, and hatred, will give rise to cursed spirits over time."

"The danger of cursed spirits is undeniable, but there's no need to be overly afraid of them. They can be eliminated. In the past, when ordinary people couldn't detect cursed spirits, those cursed spirits spawned by negative emotions were secretly resolved by sorcerers."

"Just as cursed spirits are born from the cursed energy generated by human negative emotions, there are also very few individuals among humans who have the talent to control cursed energy. By using this cursed energy, those who become sorcerers can slay cursed spirits and exorcise them."

In order to hold this press conference to completely expose the curse to the public, not only the Japanese officials, but also the curse world made a lot of preparations. Makima already had the answers to various questions in mind, so the press conference ended smoothly.

It was also with the official contact and cooperation between the curse world and the Japanese official, and the widespread publicity of the existence of curse spirits, curse power and cursers, that curses were officially integrated into the lives of ordinary people from this moment on.

"Oh my god, it turns out that human negative emotions can actually give rise to cursed energy, and cursed energy can give rise to terrifying cursed spirits!"

"Now that there's an official platform, we can basically confirm that supernatural creatures like cursed spirits really exist."

"I didn't know there were such horrible monsters in the world we live in. I won't be able to sleep at night."

"Don't forget about the sorcerers. They can even destroy supernatural creatures like cursed spirits. These sorcerers who control cursed power can definitely be considered superpowers, right?"

"Indeed, I just don't know how strong a sorcerer is compared to ordinary humans."

"Speaking of which, Miss Makima, who was in charge of explaining the existence of cursed spirits at this press conference, is so beautiful."

"I suggest the person above should tone down his thoughts. To be respected so highly by the Prime Minister and the Ministers of State, this person must be a sorcerer, and most likely one of high rank among them."

"Indeed, ordinary people like us should not dream of reaching such a great figure."

......

After this press conference held by the Japanese government, the panic atmosphere that had been prevalent in society was finally somewhat curbed.

Although ordinary people still can't help but think about and be afraid of cursed spirits now that they clearly know about their existence, it is at least much better than the previous situation where they were completely out of control.

Especially in that press conference, Makima not only introduced the cursed spirit, but also revealed the existence of the sorcerer.

Nowadays, most people have great expectations for the group of sorcerers, and they also have great interest in this profession that really exists in reality and possesses supernatural powers.

Various topics related to sorcerers, such as the sorcerer's strength, the sorcerer's living habits, how to become a sorcerer, etc., have gained unprecedented popularity.

After all, this is equivalent to a real superpower in reality!

......

At the same time, Tokyo Jujutsu High School.

"Master Makima is so amazing."

Watching the news on TV, Sanlun Xia couldn't help but sigh.

Although they were students at Kyoto Jujutsu High School, they did not return to Kyoto but stayed in Tokyo because they served as Makima's bodyguards.

In addition, now that the existence of cursed spirits and sorcerers has been made public, the entire sorcery world is undergoing a period of change. In order not to waste any energy, the two have been sent by Makima to the Tokyo Sorcery High School to be on standby.

After hearing what Kasumi Miwa said, everyone else in the classroom nodded.

"This is an appearance in front of hundreds of millions of people across the country. If it were me, I would probably be so nervous that my legs would weaken."

Nobara Kugisaki, who was sitting nearby, supported her face with her hand and spoke.

"Now, the existence of the curse and the sorcerer has been completely exposed. It will probably be much more difficult to secretly resolve the curse in the future, right?"

Considering the current popularity of cursed spirits and sorcerers in Japan, if these sorcerers accidentally display their powers in public, they will be surrounded by onlookers in minutes. If they are photographed, it will be almost impossible for them to carry out secret operations in the future.

"That makes sense. It seems I have to keep a low profile when I go out on missions next time."

Yuji Itadori, who was standing by the window, expressed his agreement seriously, but unfortunately, he had just finished speaking when Gojo Satoru, who was standing at the back of the classroom, vetoed him.

"Keep a low profile? I think the situation will be quite the opposite."

"I'm afraid sorcerers will have to keep a very high profile for a long time to come."
