Heaven has bound me to weakness? I angrily unleash the Eight Gates!

Gojo asked a question that left the Zen monastery speechless.

"Are you kidding me? He's a top-tier mage. Besides, you yourself wouldn't dare to harm your good brother, would you?"

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking."

Zenji Jinsuke looked at Gojo Satoru as if he were looking at a cunning fox.

"Alright, let's leave that topic at that and talk about those two boys instead."

As a teacher, it's quite irresponsible of you to let a student suffer such a serious injury; you should have your salary deducted for this.

Gojo Satoru had a faint smile on his face.

He swindled so much money from us, he can't just take the money and not do anything, can he?

"First of all, they did not die. Secondly, that kid, Kinji, mastered the domain expansion during this mission."

The student has made such great progress, shouldn't he be given a bonus?

"Domain expansion? Are you kidding me?"

Gojo Satoru became slightly more serious. He knew that Kinji's technique had gambling tendencies and combined modern science, making it the type of technique that the conservative group in the upper echelons hated the most.

However, he quite liked these strange and unusual spells.

"Is this guy really that talented?"

A mage capable of expanding their domain must be at least a level one mage, and an extremely powerful one at that.

"It's only half-finished. Take some time to give it some pointers. Stop focusing on your good brother all the time. You should be able to meet him soon."

"What do you mean?" Gojo Satoru looked at Zenji Jinsuke with a serious expression.

"literal meaning."

Zenji Shinsuke smiled and didn't give Gojo Satoru any spoilers.

"I'm leaving now, I should go home for dinner."

Ignoring Gojo Satoru's deep thought, he turned and left.

Gojo Satoru stared at the other person's back, his brows furrowing slightly. "That guy is really annoying."

He hates riddle tellers and people who only say half of what they mean.

In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed, and Kinji and Kirara have successfully advanced to the second year.

After several missions and guidance from Gojo Satoru, Shinji gradually mastered the domain expansion and, with the recommendation of Zenin Jinsuke and Tennen Riko, both Level 1 masters, became a Level 1 mage.

Xing Qiluo is slightly less capable, but reaching the next level before graduation shouldn't be a problem.

In just six months, the pure love warrior, Yuta Eto, came under the scrutiny of higher-ups due to being bullied at school.

Because of the unstable factor of the Cursed Queen Rika, the higher-ups in the sorcery world directly issued an order to put Otsuku Yuuta on the death row.

The task of carrying out the executions fell to Zenji Jinsuke.

Why did it fall on his head? This has to do with his attitude towards cursed spirits over the years.

The two people who give the higher-ups the biggest headaches are Gojo Satoru, who is completely unreasonable, strong, and high-profile, and is disliked by the higher-ups.

Another example is Zenji Jinsuke. If Gojo Satoru is unreasonable, then Zenji Jinsuke is purely self-willed. Except for matters related to cursed spirits, he completely ignores the orders of his superiors.

However, after the higher-ups somehow learned that Zenji Jinsuke and Tsukumo Yuki were having an affair, their impression of him changed slightly.

Girlfriends are all like this; compared to them, Zenji Shinsuke is just disobedient.

The reason this mission fell to him was entirely because the higher-ups took him in stride, given his particular fondness for cursed spirits.

Even for top-tier vengeful spirits, the higher-ups felt comfortable entrusting him with the task of eliminating them.

Although they questioned Zenjon Shinsuke's attitude, personality, and even character, they never doubted his strength; he definitely possessed the power to exorcise a top-tier cursed spirit.

If it weren't for the fact that he only knew physical skills and lacked wide-range attack moves, the higher-ups would have considered promoting him to Special Grade.

Besides being able to remove a special-grade curse, the most important criterion for judging a top-tier character is whether they have the ability to destroy a nation.

At the school gate, Zenji Jinsuke leaned against the wall, waiting for his target to appear.

He never expected that the higher-ups would send him to kill Yi Gu. This must be what they call the butterfly effect.

As soon as the bell rang, the students rushed out of the school like a flood.

Several days have passed since Yigu Youtai fought back and killed those bullies. The school is operating normally, and it is estimated that apart from the teachers and students, few people know about this incident.

Yuta Etsu appeared in Zenji Jinsuke's field of vision, looking dejected and timid. It was clear from his appearance that he was often bullied.

The students around him kept at least three meters away, seemingly somewhat afraid of him.

After all, the guys who used to bully him had gotten into trouble, so they didn't dare to lay a hand on him anymore.

"Kid, come with me. Someone's paying to have you killed."

Zenji Shinsuke stood in front of Ekiku, looking down at him.

The students around them kept their distance from Zenji Jinsuke, afraid of offending this scoundrel.

Yi Gu stopped, looked up blankly at the unfamiliar face, and asked without fear, "Is it because of them?"

"Of course, murder is punishable by death."

Zenji Jinsuke smiled.

"Yuta...no one can hurt Yuta!"

An extremely terrifying cursed power surged from behind Etsukoshi. Rika tore open a crack with her hands, trying to crawl out and tear Zenji Jinsuke apart.

"Rika, don't be impulsive!"

Yigu quickly comforted Lixiang, as he did not want to kill any more people.

"Tsk tsk, what a powerful cursed spirit."

Zenji Jinsuke felt the scent emanating from Rika and couldn't help but sigh.

No wonder Gojo Satoru thought Rika was troublesome, and Natsuyu Suguru also fell victim to this cursed spirit.

It seems the curse of love is indeed extraordinary.

"Don't get so agitated. While killing someone will cost you your life, killing an animal won't. Come with me."

Zenji Jinsuke stopped teasing Yigu, otherwise Rika would probably go berserk.

Yigu didn't speak, but silently followed behind Zenji Jinsuke.

He didn't know what he would face next, but he knew he had to be accounted for what had happened to him.

On the way, Zenji Jinsuke observed this future master sorcerer and secretly clicked his tongue.

Talent is such a discouraging thing.

Just because he is a descendant of one of the three great vengeful spirits, and just because he is related to Gojo Satoru, he can obtain a curse queen without even having to work hard, simply by cursing someone.

With just a little effort, one can easily become a top-tier mage.

The Maki and Mai sisters, despite their desperate efforts, could only reach level one at best, which was not as high as some others' starting point.

Thinking it over, Zenji Jinsuke decided to train Maki properly, at least to the point where she could exorcise a special-grade cursed spirit.

As for Maya... just give up, she's not aiming to become that strong anyway.

Chapter 42: Maki's Decision to Play Both Sides

"I've brought the person here; the rest is none of my business."

Zenji Jinsuke swaggered in and led Eku Yuta into the high school, into a secret room filled with talismans.

"You can stay here. When you can leave depends on your fate."

Zenji Jinsuke hung up the phone and spoke to Otsuku Yuta.

"Huh? Weren't we supposed to be questioning them?"

Yuta looked bewildered. Even if he wasn't to atone with his death, shouldn't he at least be punished?

"Assault me? I have no obligation to do so because I received money from you."

Zenji Shinsuke waved his hand and turned to leave.

He still needs to go to the higher-ups to collect the money for the murder.

After Zenji Jinsuke left, Otsuku Yuta looked at the walls around him covered with talismans and suddenly felt a little nervous.

Is this the punishment, to lock him up here for the rest of his life?

"You are Otsuku Yuta?"

Yuta Otsu was startled by Gojo Satoru, who suddenly appeared beside him.

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous. I spent ten million to buy you. Relax."

He originally intended to pick up Yuta Otsukoshi in person, but after the other party's affairs were exposed by the higher-ups, he investigated the other party's identity.

A curse from an ordinary person could not possibly have such power over an ordinary person.

He guessed that Yigu must have a very strong bloodline. Unexpectedly, after investigating, he traced it back to the three great vengeful spirits of ancient times, and even deduced that the other party was very likely related to the Gojo family.

They felt the other person had potential and shouldn't be eliminated like this.

When he was about to pick up the person, the higher-ups told him that the task had been assigned to Zenin Shinsuke.

Knowing how much Zenji Jinsuke loved the cursed spirits, Gojo Satoru called the other party in advance, asking him to spare Etsukotsu's life.

The price... is ten million.

In other words, he bought Etoku Yuta's life for ten million.

Luckily, he was a top-tier mage and didn't usually have many expenses, otherwise, he would have been ripped off sooner or later.

"Who are you...?"

A sense of doubt arose in Eto's heart. It didn't seem like he was going to be punished.

"I am Gojo Satoru, your... future teacher."

Gojo Satoru decides to hide the bone.

After all, Zenji Jinsuke had just gone to hand in his mission, and the next second, Otsuku Yuuta appeared lively and energetic in the sight of the higher-ups, which was not good.

Gojo Satoru pursed his lips. It was really inappropriate of him to be thinking about that Zenin Shinsuke. He would have to make up for it by doing something for him next time.

Meanwhile, Zenji Jinsuke had already begun handing over the mission.

"The person has already been killed?"

Zen-in Shinsuke remained calm.

He openly brought Etotsu Yuta to the high school, just to tell others that he had brought the man back and that his mission was complete.

As for whether he was killed or not, the person is already in a vocational college; the rest is not important.

"Where's the body?"

An aged voice came from behind the door.

“Gao Zhuan is lying there. If you’re worried, go find Gojo Satoru. He took him away.”

Zenji Jinsuke decisively shifted the blame to Gojo Satoru, since Gojo was strong, didn't have a good impression on the higher-ups, and could handle things.

"..."

The person inside remained silent for a moment, seemingly somewhat doubtful of his words.

However, he didn't complain too much, saying, "The money will be transferred to your card on time."

There was a single response, and then there was no further sound from inside.

Seeing this, the monk left with peace of mind, and another ten million had arrived in his account, making him very happy.

Whether it's the higher-ups or Gojo Satoru, they all seem to have plenty of money, making them perfect targets for taking advantage of.

Meanwhile, the Zen temple family.

Inside the head of the household's house, Zenin Naoki sat cross-legged on a cushion, drinking sake, and looked at Maki, whose face was resolute, and asked:

"Are you really not going to join the Body-Stabilizing Team? You're already getting old, and your strength is average. What are you planning to do if you don't join the Body-Stabilizing Team?"
