A young love story that started with exorcism

Looking at the other two cursed spirits, there were indeed energy lines connecting to Yashiro Sugo through the small holes.

It turns out this guy isn't using cursed spirits like Geto Suguru, who can freely command them to fight for him. Instead, he's using them like puppets, controlling them in real time with strings. No wonder the cursed spirits' movements resemble various martial arts techniques; it turns out the puppeteer behind them isn't very skilled.

What about cutting the strings? What will happen to the puppet and the puppeteer without them?

Thinking of this, Takahashi Takumi didn't wait for the cursed spirit to attack, and directly launched an attack on the newly sewn cursed spirit with his steel chain fingers. He dodged its fist with a quick step, stepped sideways, and circled behind the hand knife, cutting straight at the silk thread on its body.

"Puff" the cursed spirit fell directly to the ground, oh, the puppet with broken strings was directly ruined.

Seeing that his trick had been seen through, Yashiro Sugo immediately controlled the other two cursed spirits to attack together and force back the steel chain fingers.

Seeing that the attack finally worked, Takahashi Takumi was happy and began to verbally attack Yashiro Sugo.

"I've seen through your tricks, you doll-playing lolicon. I just cut your string, and now I'm going to cut your neck."

"Huh, what are you so proud of?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the fallen cursed spirit stood up, its broken threads reconnected, and the cursed spirit that was initially cut in two also joined in. The same happened with the winged cursed spirit, its severed claws sewn back together.

“If the line breaks, reconnect it, but I want to see how many times you can cut it.

I don't know what that thing beside you is, but it can only fight in close combat. While its strength and speed are slightly superior to my cursed spirit, its abilities are incompatible with mine. It can slice through objects without destroying them, which is incomprehensible. My ability, however, can sew back everything it cuts. Now, you're being besieged by four cursed spirits. How will you cope?

You're clearly not a sorcerer, yet you can see cursed spirits normally. There's also a spirit similar to a cursed spirit, which isn't formed by cursed power, but by another power system. This is really good material, I'll have to dissect and study it carefully later."

Watching the four approaching cursed spirits, Takahashi Takumi gently stroked his arm, silently assessing the current situation: These cursed spirits are extremely powerful, and even getting hit by them would be seriously injured. Just now, three of them was already a struggle, and now there are four, the chances of victory are slim. Does this guy really only have four?

If he launched a desperate attack on Yashiro Sugo himself, and a cursed spirit suddenly appeared, he would surely die.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Hojo Miyoko squirm into a corner. Should he take her with him and retreat? He was now outmatched, so retreat was the best option. After all, if she wanted to leave now, he couldn't stop her.

"Hahaha, you want to escape? Where is your momentum just now?" Yashiro Sugo obviously also noticed Takahashi Takumi's thoughts, and began to laugh and mock.

Humph! Takahashi Takumi ignored him and suddenly turned and rushed towards Hojo Midori. Before Yashiro Sugo could make a move, Takahashi Takumi had already hugged Hojo Midori and opened a zipper on the floor. He took Hojo Midori directly inside and turned around and pointed his index finger at Yashiro Sugo and shouted:

"I will remember this grudge, don't let me see you again"

Under Yashiro Sugo's astonished gaze, the zipper closed, and the floor returned to normal, as if nothing had happened. Looking around, Yashiro Sugo and his few cursed spirits were the only ones left on the rooftop. The quiet night seemed especially warm under the bright moon.

"Ahhhh~ damn little devil!"

Yashiro Sugo was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth and unconsciously pulled his tie a few times.

He had originally planned to capture that boy and then begin a live transformation project. He was wondering what changes would occur when the body with different power systems was infused with cursed energy. This new experiment would significantly improve his own strength. All these beautiful fantasies suddenly turned into impotent delusions in an instant. How could this drive him crazy?

Just when Yashiro Sugo was about to evacuate after being furious, a zipper suddenly appeared silently on the floor behind Yashiro Sugo, and a humanoid armored arrow shot out, reaching the best attack position in a flash.

Yashiro Sugo, who had been seething with rage just moments before, realized the danger behind him too late. A fist with steel chain fingers crashed down hard on his shoulder. He nearly screamed in fright, leaping several meters away as four cursed spirits blocked his path. Even so, the feeling of his right arm being empty still made him scream.

"Ah~ My hand!"

Being hit hard was certainly painful, but what shocked Yashiro Sugo the most was that his arm actually fell off. The pain was not the pain of having his arm cut off. There was no pain at the cut, and the cut was in the shape of a zipper.

"Could it be that little devil?"

"Yes, it's me. You didn't expect that I'm back."

It was Takumi Takahashi who came out from the zipper.

Chapter 39: Fushiguro Megumi's sudden arrival

"How could you be so careless that your arm fell off?"

Takahashi Takumi had an idea, and he used his steel chain fingers to hit the broken arm on the floor frantically, as if he was making beef balls with his hands.

As the violent beatings ended, the originally complete severed arm had turned into pieces of meat less than 1 cubic centimeter in size.

Takahashi Takumi nodded with great satisfaction and said, "Not bad, not bad, all of them are top-notch cuts of meat. Uncle over there, would you like some? It's free, don't miss this opportunity."

Yashiro Sugo could only watch his arm being destroyed, feeling heartbroken. He was even more furious when he heard Takahashi Takumi's provocative words.

"Little devil, you are originally a top-notch material, and I will definitely cherish you. But if you anger me and I catch you later, I will make you wish you were dead. I will cut off your eyelids and make you watch your body being ripped apart."

After saying that, Yashiro Sugo controlled the four cursed spirits to rush towards Takahashi Takumi.

"What a pity. If you don't even want it for free, then just throw it away." After saying that, Takumi Takahashi used his steel chain fingers to kick the diced meat away. The diced meat flew into the air like a handful of sand and finally fell off the building.

Facing four cursed spirits, Takahashi Takumi was about to use his steel chain fingers to cut through the floor and temporarily retreat. After all, a head-on confrontation would not give him an advantage, so he retreated to the dark and looked for an opportunity to attack.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a clear bird song was heard from the rooftop. This penetrating cry made Takahashi Takumi and Yashiro Sugo stop what they were doing and look up at the sky.

Suddenly, a huge owl came swooping down, carrying a man in its claws. With his back to the moon, it was difficult to see his face. All I could make out was a man in a black uniform, about 1.8 meters tall.

The man was still a few meters above the rooftop when the owl released its claws. The man clapped his hands in the air and made a gesture, shouting:

Jade Dog

A burst of energy emerged from his body and quickly gathered in an area on both sides. Suddenly, two huge creatures, one black and one white, appeared. They were not sure whether they were wolves or dogs. Both creatures raised their heads and howled loudly, "Awoo~"

This... is a wolf, right? Why is it called Jade Dog?

A man and two dogs had just landed. The man glanced at Takahashi Takumi, then looked at the steel chain fingers in confusion, but turned around and faced Yashiro Sugo without saying a word.

When he saw Yashiro Sugo with a broken arm and the four cursed spirits in front of him, he ordered the two big dogs, one white and one black, to attack without hesitation, and rushed forward as well.

"Who are you? We can talk it out. We don't have to fight. Let me go, I..."

Yashiro Sugo saw the man suddenly appear, and he could tell the two large dogs were summoned Shikigami, quite powerful. He had lost an arm, his strength greatly reduced, and he could barely handle Takahashi Takumi alone, but the man who suddenly appeared before him was no less powerful than him, if not more so. He had no interest in a fight that he had a high probability of losing, and a final solution in dialogue would be the best option.

However, this man who suddenly appeared didn't want to talk to him at all and rushed up to start fighting.

Seeing that this could not be resolved peacefully, Yashiro Sugo immediately controlled three cursed spirits to rush forward and intercept the two big dogs and the man, while the winged cursed spirit quickly flew over and grabbed his shoulders and flew into a net, trying to escape.

Yashiro Sugo had just risen a few meters into the air when suddenly a crackling sound of electricity came from above and behind him. It was the big owl from before, its wings flashing with electric sparks as they streaked across the sky.

With a crackling sound, one of the wings of the cursed spirit carrying Yashiro Sugo was hit by it. As if with the power of thunder and lightning, the winged cursed spirit had half of its body burned in the blink of an eye, and fell back to the roof with Yashiro Sugo.

On the other side, when they fell down in Yashiro Sugo, the three cursed spirits paused briefly, as if there was no one controlling them.

The cursed spirit that had been cut into two halves and then sewn together, as well as the cursed spirit whose upper body was also sewn together, were instantly knocked to the ground by the big dogs. The two big dogs, one black and one white, began to bite them madly, and swallowed the pieces they bit off from time to time.

The man slid to the side of the last cursed spirit and broke its thigh with a kick. The cursed spirit fell straight to the ground. Then the man went up to finish it off and smashed its head.

Watching the battle unfold, the battle was almost over in just one round. Takahashi Takumi couldn't help but wonder if he was too weak. He'd fought for quite some time, severing a cursed spirit, bisecting the upper body of another, and even severing a bird's claw, but all of those were stitched back together by Yashiro Sugo. Ultimately, all he'd accomplished was the severance and destruction of one of Yashiro Sugo's arms.

Was it a gap in strength or a mismatch in expertise? He turned to look at his steel-chained fingers, feeling unworthy of their reputation. Bruno Bucciarati, please don't blame me. It's not that I'm incompetent, it's just that the enemy is too cunning, outnumbering the minority.

Besides, it's not like I don't have a chance. If I find a few more sneak attacks, I can definitely kill that Yashiro Sugo. Who knows, someone like Cheng Yaojin will suddenly appear and steal my kill? Forget it, I'll give you the MVP. I'm a man of vision.

After getting rid of the three cursed spirits, the man and the two big dogs faced Yashiro Sugo, who had only half a cursed spirit left and his back burned by lightning. When they were about to kill him, Yashiro Sugo saw the man in front of him clearly.

It turned out to be a young man who looked like a high school student, with short black-blue hedgehog hair, dark blue pupils, a cold face, and he was wearing a familiar uniform.

"Are you from the Curse High School?"

"Tokyo Metropolitan Jutsu High School, first year student Megumi Fushiguro.

Yashiro Sugo, you were once a master of the Jujutsu High School, yet I never imagined you would sink to such a low point. You manipulated cursed spirits to amass wealth for yourself, cruelly toyed with and murdered 13 young girls, and secretly abducted innocent civilians for human experiments, resulting in the deaths of hundreds. Such beastly behavior is beyond the reach of Heaven, and today is your end.

Megumi Fushiguro pronounced his sentence with an expressionless face. Listening in the background, Takumi Takahashi, though aware that Yashiro Sugo was a complete pervert, was still shocked when he heard the specific number. This guy's behavior was truly abominable, and he deserved death. But he was also a student at the Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu High School. Could it be that Megumi Fushiguro was here specifically to clean up the mess?

But Yashiro Sugo should have been at large for a long time after killing so many people. How come he was suddenly found today?

Chapter 40: Turned into Charcoal

"How did you find this place?" Yashiro Sugo asked unwillingly while lying on the rooftop.

That's a really good question. Takahashi Takumi nodded in praise from behind. Yashiro Sugo, you deserve to die, but you asked a good question. I won't spit at you when you die.

"The High Commissioner received the information that you were at Hojo Building, and we continued to analyze your actions. Finally, the higher-ups sent me to check on the situation of Hojo Miyoko, the daughter of the owner of Hojo Building.

I saw the curse spirit you released from the rooftop from a distance, and now I've caught it. It's justice, retribution."

After hearing Fushiguro Megumi's answer, Yashiro Sugo smiled bitterly and said with hatred:

"Retribution? That's all bullshit. We warlocks are supposed to be superior beings. Why should we fight to the death to protect those ordinary people who are not worth mentioning? They should give everything for us.

I've heard of your technique. It's the shadow technique of the Zenin family, one of the three great schools. You've reached this level in your first year of high school. How can you geniuses understand how it feels to be unable to improve your strength no matter how hard you try? If you're not strong enough, you're basically doomed to fail if you encounter a difficult cursed spirit.

The purpose of human experimentation is to enhance my strength. It is an honor for ordinary people to sacrifice their lives to enhance my strength. This can also be considered a contribution to the world of sorcery. Why don't you understand?"

"Evildoers always think they're right. Stop making excuses. I've read your profile. You're underpowered, but you've never been on a dangerous mission beyond your capabilities. You're a perverted lolita con. Everyone deserves to kill you."

"I'm not a lolita complex, it's just that the person I like happens to be younger. Why do you have to limit my hobbies? You have to respect my freedom..."

"Xine" Before Yashiro Sugo could finish his words, Fushiguro Megumi snapped his fingers, and the owl in the sky spit out a black thunder that directly split Yashiro Sugo into charcoal. The aroma of meat wafted in the air, and he was already deader than dead.

At this time, Takahashi Takumi saw that he had finished the job and was thinking of running away, but Fushiguro Megumi in front of him also turned her head and looked at him.

"Ya hello!"

Takahashi Takumi didn't know what to say for a moment, and couldn't help but say something very stupid to greet him. After he said it, he felt so stupid.

Megumi Fushiguro looked at the young man in front of him. He was probably about the same age as himself, but much taller and stronger than him. He couldn't help but compare him with Aoi Todou from Kyoto School. Although he was not as big, he was almost the same size.

However, looking at the steel chain fingers surrounding Takahashi Takumi, it's clear that they aren't some kind of shikigami or cursed spirit. Takahashi Takumi's cursed energy is only at the level of a normal human. Yet, Takahashi Takumi managed to sever Yashiro Sugo's arm and still fight the cursed spirit. How did he do that?

Apparently, Megumi Fushiguro couldn't think of anything, and remained unmoved by Takahashi Takumi's strange greeting. After retracting his three shikigami, he simply nodded calmly and said, "Hello, are you okay? Can you tell me how you confronted him?"

Obviously, Fushiguro Megumi saw that Takahashi Takumi was not a sorcerer, and he was fighting with Yashiro Sugo, so he was obviously not a curse caster. He couldn't care less about other things, so he just asked briefly.

Seeing that he had no ill intentions and had taken back the Shikigami on his own initiative, Takahashi Takumi couldn't be stingy either. He also retracted his steel chain fingers and briefly told them what he had seen and heard about Hojo Midori and Yashiro Sugo.

After understanding the process of the incident, Megumi Fushiguro nodded and said that someone on her side would handle the follow-up of the matter. She asked Takahashi Takumi to go back and hoped that he would not spread the matter.

Of course, Takahashi Takumi patted his chest to make a promise:

"Don't worry, I won't tell you about that. By the way, do you have a specialized organization? What exactly is that Tokyo Metropolitan Jutsu High School you mentioned? Can I join?"

"Hmm~ I'm afraid that's not possible. We sorcerers basically have innate spells, which means that spells are an innate ability; it's almost impossible for sorcerers to acquire skills through training and study.

Although I don't know the origin of your humanoid summon, it doesn't possess the characteristics of cursed power. It should be a different power system, so you are not suitable for our Curse High School. Sorry."

"Is that so?" Takahashi Takumi asked casually, but he was a little disappointed when he learned that he really had no chance of learning curse arts. After all, Gojo Satoru was so handsome, and curse arts battles were so cool, but now it was impossible for him to become one of them.

However, regarding the question of evil spirits and cursed spirits, Takahashi Takumi still wants to ask whether there is any difference between the two things. Or whether sorcerers can see the evil spirits of the world of seeing children.

However, Megumi Fushiguro's answer was beyond Takumi Takahashi's expectations.

"Are evil spirits the kind that can't harm humans unless they're confirmed to be visible to them? If so, we sorcerers can all see them. There are more of them, but the harm is relatively minor. After all, it's almost impossible for ordinary people to see evil spirits.

Curse spirits, on the other hand, don't care whether you can see them or not, and they can be very harmful, killing tens of thousands of people every year. If a powerful curse spirit appears, it could endanger an entire city.

Plus, we have very few sorcerers. I'm the only one in the entire first grade of my sorcery academy, and I'm already too busy just dealing with the cursed spirits."

Fushiguro Megumi said this as if he was complaining. It's no wonder, Curse Spirits are so dangerous, and handling them is extremely risky. After all, not everyone has the invincible strength of Gojo Satoru.

The talent in the world of spellcasting is basically monopolized by the three great families, but the sorcerers of the big families will not easily help. There are too few other civilian wild sorcerers, and most of them are not strong enough.

The Jujutsu High School only had two or three students each year, and they could die while on missions. Therefore, the number of people who normally went on the exorcism mission was very small.

In this case, the evil spirits that pose little threat to ordinary people are naturally ignored, or no one is bothered to deal with them. This explanation makes Takahashi Takumi say: As expected of the world of anime, each show focuses on its own business and does not cross the line at all.

Let’s forget about the daily stuff and not discuss it.

After a few simple words, Takahashi Takumi left. After all, you can't disturb others at work, right? And now we roughly know the time point of the Jujutsu World, which should be before Itadori Yuji appears.

This incident made Takahashi Takumi realize that his own strength was not enough in this demon-ridden world. Although the steel chain finger was not specifically designed to deal with cursed spirits or sorcerers, he could still crush Yashiro Sugo with more sneak attacks. However, after seeing the battle of Fushiguro Megumi, the gap was quite large.

Takahashi Takumi found that the speed at which he was accumulating energy points was too slow.

Evil spirits aren't just weeds that disappear after being killed. Strong evil spirits like the fox demons at the Sankodani Shrine are unbeatable, and there are other powerful evil spirits that I still don't dare to attack. Now it's connected to the sorcerer, the danger is escalating!

What should he do? Takahashi Takumi suddenly looked at the portal on the system. Should he go to another place with a large amount of super-powered items and become a middleman?

Chapter 41: Xuan Neng Saves Fei

After walking down a few floors, Takahashi Takumi saw Hojo Midoriko at the entrance of the stairs below, craning her neck to look up anxiously.

When she saw that it was Takahashi Takumi, she jumped up with joy, rushed over in two steps, grabbed Takahashi Takumi's hand, and asked worriedly:

"How's it going? Are you okay? Did you defeat that pervert?"

"It's okay, what can happen to me, I'm super strong, okay.
