"Don't apologize, I know what's going on."

Lin Dong came back to his senses and said, "Instead of just apologizing verbally, why don't you teach me some powerful magic or fight me? That would be more sincere."

"......I see."

Faced with Lin Dong's unexpectedly indifferent reaction, Rias was silent for a moment before agreeing to his request.

From the application of magic power to the basic teaching of magic, Rias personally taught Lin Dong.

Like a sponge in water, Lin Dong quickly absorbed this knowledge and began a new round of growth.

...

A week later, on the edge of Juwang Town.

A roar sounded, and the raging flames engulfed a two-meter-tall yellow cursed spirit.

"Rias, how's it going?"

Lin Dong turned his head and asked, "Is there anything else that can be improved?"

"...You've surpassed me."

Lifting the red hair by her ear, Rias showed a helpless smile on her face.

a week.

Aside from the destructive magic that could not be taught, Lin Dong directly drained away everything she knew.

During this process, the other party even optimized and improved some of the magic.

Not only does it improve the efficiency of magic, it also increases the overall power.

Even though I already knew that Lin Dong’s talent was amazing, this was still too comprehensive.

Swordplay, hand-to-hand combat, magic and sorcery.

He is proficient in everything and has no blind spots at all.

"You've been able to hold on for a week. You already know a lot, Rias." Lin Dong came over and comforted her.

"Although I know you are trying to comfort me, it still hurts my ears."

Rias cheered up, "The cursed spirits have all been cleared. Let's go back to school."

"According to the time, the sorcerer sent from Tokyo to reinforce the seal should be here soon."

"Then go back."

Lin Dong opened the property panel.

Because the seal on Sukuna's finger has loosened, a large number of cursed spirits have recently come to Juwang Town.

The strength of cursed spirits varies, and most of them will drop attributes.

After discovering this, Lin Dong directly took on the task of clearing out the cursed spirits.

In addition to fighting in various gyms, he had gained a lot of low-level white and green attributes this week.

After using it all up, he successfully opened two entry slots.

【Lin Dong】

[Race: Demon]

【Strength: Level 2】

[Entries: Magic Sword Creation (Blue), Soul Healing Bracelet (Blue), Soldier (Purple), Immortal Art (Purple), Multiplication (Red), Destruction Magic (Red), Endless Potential (Colorful)]

[Destruction Magic (Red): Adds the destructive attribute to magic, greatly increasing destructive power.]

Lin Dong obtained the destructive magic power when he sought out Rias for a sparring match.

Perhaps because she felt guilty, Rias didn't use her full strength right away when sparring with him.

Lin Dong naturally wouldn't be polite about this.

It directly doubled and stacked to the fourth layer, and with sixteen times the normal strength, it took down Rias.

After closing the attribute panel, Lin Dong followed Rias back to the Occult Research Club.

Because the distance was closer, Himejima Akeno and others who were also out to clean up the cursed spirits had already gathered first.

In addition, there was a black-haired girl wearing glasses in the room, talking with Himejima Akeno and others.

After seeing the black-haired girl, Rias's eyes flashed with doubt.

"Cangna, why are you here?"

"Sukuna's finger is missing."

"???"

Unexpectedly, her friend revealed a shocking piece of information right at the beginning, which gave Rias a headache.

"Tell me what happened specifically."

"Did you notice that there are quite a lot of cursed spirits that just appeared around Juwang Town?"

"I've noticed this. Are you saying...that those cursed spirits were released by someone?"

Sona nodded: "The murderer took advantage of the time when we were all out to clean up the cursed spirits and sneaked into the school and stole Sukuna's finger."

"Where's Teacher Nangong?"

"She received a special mission this morning and is currently overseas."

"......interesting."

A thought flashed in Rias's eyes.

Confirm in advance that Nangong Nayue is not there, and then release a corresponding number of curse spirits to lead everyone out of the school.

From this point, it can be seen that the enemy has a general understanding of the combat power within Juwang Academy.

However, she had just recruited Lin Dong as her dependent a week ago, and only a few people knew about this.

In Rias's opinion, the possibility of internal information leakage is almost zero.

If we speculate based on this...

"It seems the frequent appearance of cursed spirits this week isn't just due to Sukuna's finger."

"It seems you discovered it too."

Sona nodded: "The murderer is trying to figure out our combat power bit by bit by continuously releasing curse spirits."

Rias: "What's the identity of the murderer?"

Sona: "I haven't found out yet, but I have collected the remaining cursed energy from the other party."

"Can you show me?"

At this moment, Lin Dong suddenly asked.

"No problem at all."

Cangna took out a green crystal.

Through Rias's introduction, she had met Lin Dong a few days ago.

Although they had not met many times, she still had some understanding of how evil the other person was.

"Lin Dong, do you also know tracking magic?"

"Know a little bit."

Lin Dong activated his magic to analyze and record the aura inside the crystal.

Seeing this, Rias and Sona continued their conversation while waiting, exchanging information.

But just then, there was a knock on the door.

A boy with a black hedgehog hairstyle pushed open the door of the club and walked in from outside.

"Good evening everyone, I'm Megumi Fushiguro, sent by Kyoto High School to reinforce the seal."

"This is really not the right time."

Rias sighed, "I'm sorry, Fushiguro-kun. Sukuna's finger was just stolen."

Fushiguro Megumi: “Huh?”

......

Chapter 9: Special Curse Spirit, Hua Yu Appears

Megumi Fushiguro felt like the sky was falling.

Before we set off, my teacher clearly told me that it was a simple task and that I could complete it by just walking around.

But now when he arrived at the place, the demon in charge of guarding the seal told him that Sukuna's finger was stolen?

After learning about the situation from Rias, Megumi Fushiguro immediately called Gojo Satoru to report.

"Oh my~ I didn't expect someone could steal a finger from the demon side. You have really bad luck, Megumi."

"Stop talking nonsense. Isn't the focus now to find a way to get your finger back?"

"That's true, but that's not what you should worry about."

"what?"

"Leave it to the two demon ladies next to you. They will get it back."

Beep! Beep! Beep!

"That guy, what is he doing!"

Looking at the disconnected call, a hash mark appeared above Fushiguro Megumi's head.

"It's obviously a serious matter! Can't he just be more serious?"

"I think there's nothing wrong with Mr. Gojo."

Rias, who was standing nearby, said, "We are not in a good position to oversee this matter. Fushiguro-kun, just wait for good news."

"No, it would be uncomfortable for me to just sit there and do nothing." Megumi Fushiguro replied.

"I understand." Rias looked to the side. "Lin Dong, how's the investigation going?"

"The murderer is a cursed spirit."

Lin Dong returned the green crystal to Cang Na.

"Cursed spirit? Are you sure?"

Sona was a little surprised by this answer.

In the eyes of ordinary cursed spirits, Sukuna's finger is like nectar, and they will eat it immediately after getting it.

However, in her perception, there has been no large-scale expansion of cursed energy inside or outside Juwang Town.

If there is nothing wrong with Lin Dong's analysis, it can only mean one thing.

A cursed spirit, after getting Sukuna's finger, resisted the temptation and did not eat it.

"It seems that a special-grade curse spirit has taken action."

Rias thought the same thing.

Only the highest-level special cursed spirits can resist the temptation of Sukko's fingers.

"Lin Dong, can you locate the murderer?"

“I have to look around.”

Lin Dong expanded the detection range of his magic and began to search for the same kind of life energy.

"If that cursed spirit hadn't left Juwang Town, I would have a chance to find it."

"If you're looking for a cursed spirit, I can help."

Fushiguro Megumi spoke.

He can't defeat the special-grade curse spirit.
