Type-Moon: Shinji Matou Also Wants to Be the Protagonist

Suzuki even remembers the date of the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons): December 24, 2017!

This was all thanks to the selfless dedication of his fellow soulmates; as he absorbed more soul fragments, Suzuki's soul also grew stronger.

The growth of his soul simultaneously enhanced his memory, which enabled him to grasp information about major events.

Just then, Suzuki's second semester of junior high school was almost over.

The holiday will be in late December, which will be just in time for the trip.

While Suzuki was actively preparing, Natsuyuki, the instigator of the storm, was spying on a boy.

The boy's name is Etotsu Yuta, and he is currently the youngest Special Grade Spellcaster in the world of sorcery.

The rating of a sorcerer corresponds to the level of their cursed spirit. Cursed spirits are divided into four levels: level four, level three, level two, level one, and special level.

Sorcerers also follow this system, but their strength is generally one level higher than that of curse spirits.

In other words, a level four sorcerer corresponds to a level three spirit.

A first-level sorcerer is equivalent to a top-level sorcerer.

The top-tier sorcerer is in a class of its own, and there has never been a comparable sorcerer spirit.

In Xia Youjie's eyes, Yi Gu You Tai was nothing special.

His special-grade status was not due to himself, but because he was attached to an extremely powerful cursed spirit.

Even with Xia Youjie's extensive experience with countless cursed spirits, he had to admit that this cursed spirit was the strongest he had ever seen.

It can even fill the niche of the spirit world that corresponds to the Grand Master of Spellcasting.

She is fully deserving of the title of Queen of Curses.

If he could get her, Xia Youjie was even confident that he could confront Wutiao Wu head-on.

Once Gojo Satoru is eliminated, the remaining sorcerers are no match for his meticulously prepared Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.

His vision finally had a chance to be realized.

Xia Youjie is a close friend of Wujiao Wu, but something happened ten years ago that caused Xia Youjie's mental state to decline.

Later, he became completely corrupted and planned to create a world entirely composed of sorcerers with magical powers.

To achieve this goal, he chose to kill all ordinary people without magical powers.

Ten years have passed, but Xia Youjie still hasn't taken action.

It's still because of Gojo Satoru; he's too strong!

Even though Xia Youjie has collected more than six thousand cursed spirits over the past ten years.

Among them were even two top-tier cursed spirits, and he wasn't confident he could defeat Gojo Satoru, so he could only lie low.

But recently he discovered an opportunity to defeat Gojo Satoru.

However, just as he could see the value of Etotsu Yuta, Gojo Satoru could also see it.

Even the fact that Yuta Etsukotsu is still alive is thanks to Satoru Gojo's protection.

The cursed spirit within him was too dangerous; the higher-ups in the sorcery world feared it would go berserk.

He then prepared to make a clean cut, wiping out Etokoku Yuta along with him.

It was Gojo Satoru who saved him and even recruited him into the Jujutsu High School, seemingly intending to nurture him greatly.

If Gojo Satoru is already this difficult to deal with, imagine what it would be like if Etotsu Yuta grew up.

Whether it's to weaken the world of sorcery or to seize the Queen of Spells, Rika.

Xia Youjie and his team must take action.

They were able to develop an antisocial organization in ten years and collect more than six thousand cursed spirits.

Xia Youjie has always been a person with outstanding initiative.

After setting the time to take action, he began to systematically advance the entire plan.

They're just waiting for Christmas Day to deliver a stunning gift to the entire world of sorcery.

Meanwhile, Suzuki grabbed Itadori and made him learn martial arts with him every day.

With an opponent who's as fearless as an animal, Suzuki can hone his skills without restraint.

Incidentally, this also allows Itadori to master a combat technique ahead of time.

To avoid stepping into the world of sorcery and becoming helpless and vulnerable to being bullied.

As soon as the school announced the holiday, Suzuki immediately rushed to Tokyo.

An impending war awaits him, and he is invited to join in the grand undertaking.

Of course, Suzuki knew that he couldn't sit still for long with his strength, but it would be good to get into a few battles first and hone his skills in real combat. It would be much better than being stuck in this small courtyard practicing without any progress.

Chapter 114: Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain

December 24th is Christmas Eve, and the streets of Tokyo should be bustling with people.

But the streets of Tokyo are unusually deserted today.

Because a pitch-black barrier completely enveloped this area.

The formal name for a barrier is "tent," which is a basic barrier technique that sorcerers must master.

Its basic function is to conceal the battlefield, prevent ordinary people from getting involved in or witnessing magical battles, and maintain the secrecy of the magical world.

However, don't underestimate this barrier spell just because it's a basic one; it's a prime example of something that's easy to learn but difficult to master.

Most beginner-level "accounts" are all the same, rigid and inflexible.

But once you master it, you can adjust the size of the "tent" at will, from as small as a room to as large as covering an entire block.

More advanced "accounts" can add even more features.

For example, blocking internal and external access, blocking network signals, isolating and restricting targets...

In any case, it is a technique with an extremely high potential. Most importantly, this technique can be learned later in life.

Therefore, even those sorcerers who are not born with spells, or whose spells are not suitable for combat, can learn a skill.

Such people in the world of sorcery usually work in a profession called assistant supervisor.

The giant "tent" that now covers several blocks of Tokyo is the result of a joint effort by many auxiliary supervisors.

This enormous "tent" drove away the gathered ordinary people and trapped all the enemies within the barrier.

Meanwhile, the more combat-savvy sorcerers were locked in a standoff with the enemy.

Their enemy is an organization called the Panxing Cult, which is the result of Xia Youjie's ten years of work.

However, a few sorcerers are not worth gathering all the sorcerers around Tokyo.

Their main enemy was actually the cursed spirit that occupied almost half the sky.

Low-level cursed spirits have no independent consciousness and will only follow Xia Youjie's instructions to target everyone around them.

The higher-level cursed spirits already possess considerable intelligence, and they cunningly hide among the ranks of the lower-level cursed spirits.

The sorcerers could only spread out to block them, and the streets and alleys of Tokyo became battlefields.

Not only Tokyo, but also Kyoto, hundreds of kilometers away, is experiencing the same "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons".

This was Xia Youjie's plan: to gather sorcerers from the sorcery world together through this method.

This will make it easier for him to do what he really wants to do.

At the same time that a "tent" was lowered in downtown Tokyo, the Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu High School, which was disguised as a religious school deep in the mountains of Tokyo, also lowered a "tent".

Xia Youjie, whom the higher-ups in the sorcery world greatly feared, appeared here alone.

Because the sorcerers had all been lured into the city, the auxiliary supervisors left behind were no match for Xia Youjie.

After easily taking down the person blocking his way, Xia Youjie calmly made his way toward his goal.

Because all of Yuta's power is in the body of the special-grade cursed spirit Rika.

The state of the cursed spirit is also very unstable.

The higher-ups in the sorcery world had already issued a death sentence order, but Gojo Satoru saved him.

Even Gojo Satoru dared not allow the unstable Etotsu Yuta to appear on the battlefield.

So he was kept at the High School of Spellcasting, along with another student—Zenin Maki.

As Xia Youjie put down the "tent", the two people who stayed at the school also sensed the invasion of the enemy.

Unlike Eki, Maki was left behind simply because she wasn't strong enough.

She was born with extremely low magical abilities, and even needed magical tools to see the spirits she was cursed with.

Logically speaking, it would be almost impossible for someone like her to become a sorcerer.

But this world possesses an ability called "Heaven and Curse".

This is an inherent constraint, which usually manifests as equivalent exchange.

People with this ability usually have a congenital defect, but as compensation, one aspect will be extremely prominent.

Maki possesses the power of "Heaven and Curse".

Her weakness lies in her extremely low magical power, but in return, she possesses a powerful physical body.

It was precisely because of her outstanding physique and martial arts skills that she was able to successfully enroll in the Spellcasting Academy.

Of course, Suzuki guessed there must be another reason why she was able to join the Jujutsu High School.

That is because the previous "Heaven and Curse" of the same type as her left too deep an impression on Gojo Satoru.

Fukuro Jinji, a man who took Gojo Satoru's life with his physical strength and martial arts skills.

The previous owner of "Heaven and Curse" had the nickname "Heaven and Tyrant".

Seeing that another person of the same type had appeared, Gojo Satoru certainly wouldn't let such talent slip by.

However, compared to "Heaven and Tyrant" Fushiguro Jinji, Zenin Maki's strength is far inferior.

Because Fuheshel had absolutely no magical power, he gained an extremely powerful physical body in return.

Unfortunately, Maki somehow managed to retain a trace of her cursed power.

This prevented her from reaching the depth of Voxel in the realm of 'Heaven and Curse'.

However, even though her abilities were not outstanding, she still stood up without hesitation when the college was invaded by foreign enemies.

"why you?"

Seeing Zenin Maki blocking his way, Natsuyu Jie looked disgusted.

Like Gojo Satoru, the impression left on him by "Heaven and Tyrant" was also very deep.

So much so that he felt uncomfortable all over when he saw Maki.

Do you have a problem with that?!

Maki held a long-handled weapon, intently watching for her opponent's movements.

The opponent is very strong, and I am probably no match for them. This is a fact I already realized when we met last time.

But they've already invaded our home, so even if we can't win, we have no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.

"Fine, I'm in a hurry. Can you just hurry up and die, you monkey!"

Looking at the girl in front of him, painful memories flooded back, causing Xia Youjie's good mood to plummet.

The malice, impatience, and hostility in his words were palpable.

As Xia Youjie spoke, dark magical power rose around him, condensing into more than a dozen scarlet centipede-shaped magical spirits.

The densely packed blades gleamed with a chilling light, making it clear at a glance that these creatures were not to be trifled with.

Zenji Maki's eyes darkened, and an immense pressure washed over him, causing his hand holding the knife to tremble slightly.

'Clang~'

The battle was about to begin.

The pheasant-shaped cursed weapon collided with the cursed spirit's carapace, producing a resounding clang of metal against metal.

The force of the recoil made Maki's hand go numb.
