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

He then carried the unconscious Zhenren, and while he was at it, he scooped up the head of the water clock, and, stepping on the thorny vines, rushed towards the dense forest outside the factory area.

"Your opponent is me, you'll have to ask me before you can leave."

She had only run less than ten meters when she felt several attacks erupt from behind her.

His vine attack had already been shattered.

What was even more disheartening was that Gojo Satoru had already stretched and blocked his way.

Hua Yu was in despair!

Just as Gojo Satoru was about to eliminate several cursed spirits, an attack suddenly struck him.

However, because of the limitless spells that he maintained around him, the sudden attacks became slower and slower until they almost stopped.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a bright orange bullet.

But it was clearly not an ordinary human creation, because after being intercepted, the bullet quickly disintegrated into cursed energy and dissipated.

"Bang~"

Only then did a thunderous gunshot ring out from afar.

Based on the speed of sound propagation, the location from which the attack was launched was several kilometers away.

Suzuki immediately grabbed Itajimaru and hid, a long-range attack that even Gojo Satoru didn't have time to react to.

Suzuki, who had just obtained the [Transformation of Non-Action], wasn't too afraid, but Itadori couldn't withstand it.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hua Yu immediately launched a breakout from another direction.

Just as Gojo Satoru was about to stop them, a dozen bullets of the same type as the previous ones appeared in front of him.

Gojo Satoru looked in the direction the bullet had traveled.

Even though they were several kilometers apart, Gojo Satoru's six eyes could see everything clearly.

The attack was not launched by humans, but by a humanoid cursed spirit.

Compared to the real people and water clocks on this side, the guy on the other side looks much more ferocious.

Standing over two meters tall, with bulging muscles all over his body, the extended guns on his back trembled slightly like the elytra of an insect.

Various types of bullet belts hung down around the waist like a skirt of armor.

There are no arms where the hands are.

Instead, there is a Gatling gun on the right and a large-caliber cannon barrel on the left.

What's most striking is his head, which is shaped exactly like a flintlock pistol.

Almost the instant he saw the other person, Gojo Satoru understood their true nature.

This is probably a top-tier cursed spirit born from a fear of firearms!

Next to him was a photo of him with students from the Sorcery Academy.

This is a warning: if the other side can strike him from beyond visual range, they can certainly strike his lovely students as well.

Gojo Satoru could only click his tongue, smacking his lips in displeasure:

"This is troublesome. There are still some ranged attackers who have slipped through the net and are lying in wait in the shadows."

"A new top-tier cursed spirit? And whose subordinate is this?"

Suzuki peeked out from behind the cover and, with his eyes enhanced by the [Transformation of Inaction], also saw the newly appeared Special Grade Cursed Spirit.

Suzuki was equally surprised, because he knew no such spirit in the stories he knew.

Chapter 131: Temporary End

"Bang~"

No sooner had Suzuki finished speaking than another cursed bullet was fired in the same direction as before.

This time, the target wasn't Gojo Satoru, but rather the spot where Suzuki was peeking out.

Suzuki immediately retreated into cover, but was still grazed by a bullet, leaving a scar on his face.

However, with a flick of Suzuki's hand, the wound vanished without a trace. Good, at least the opponent's attack couldn't touch the soul.

"It seems like you're their target, Suzuki-kun."

Gojo Satoru leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, his tone laced with a hint of schadenfreude, as if he were enjoying the spectacle.

"You just snatched the spell and someone's already coming to cause trouble. You're really popular."

"You can still laugh? They've already hit you in the face. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to stand it."

Suzuki shrank back behind the thicker bunker, while simultaneously stirring up trouble for Gojo Satoru without any hesitation.

"Suzuki, what should we do? Hiding like this isn't a solution."

While Suzuki and Gojo Satoru still had the energy to joke around, Itadori was genuinely anxious.

Under the cover of distant enemies, Hua Yu and several cursed spirits had already run quite far away.

Especially that culprit who treats humans like toys and manipulates them at will, how can we let him leave alive?

"Relax, Yuujin, Masato is already dead."

As a close friend, Suzuki immediately understood Itadori's anxiety, patted him on the shoulder, and earnestly assured him.

Hearing Suzuki's words, Itadori's agitation subsided considerably, and he frowned as he asked:

"How to say?"

"The entire process of acquiring the spell formula involved touching a real person, and naturally, after obtaining the formula, I will also..."

Suzuki waved his hand in front of Itadori and said with a smug look on his face.

He didn't say everything, but Itadori, who had learned about the transformation of non-action from Suzuki, quickly understood what Suzuki meant.

You mean...?

"boom!!"

Before Huzhang could finish his question, a deafening explosion came from afar.

At the same time, a mushroom cloud rose slowly from the distant forest.

"I hope Hana Yu is alright after getting to see the real person up close!"

Suzuki made the sign of the cross on his chest and prayed with a smile on his face.

The moment Suzuki received the Wuwei Transformation, he made his move on the real person beneath him.

Isn't he the one who most enjoys transforming other people's souls into bizarre and grotesque things for his own use?

Suzuki then used the same tactics against him.

He did not change the real person's physical form, but Suzuki modified the inside of the body into a pressure cooker without a pressure relief valve.

At the same time, Suzuki ignited Makoto's soul, transforming it into a massive amount of magical power.

Moreover, as time goes on, the speed at which a real person's soul burns will increase.

So even though the real man didn't seem to change when Hua Yu rescued him, he had actually become a ticking time bomb.

"Wow, you're playing so dirty! Aren't you afraid of retaliation?"

Gojo Satoru raised an eyebrow and exclaimed with exaggerated emotion.

While Gojo Satoru's words were meant as a joke, this situation could actually happen.

However, after obtaining the Wuwei Transformation, Suzuki became arrogant and made an arrogant declaration as soon as he opened his mouth:

"Who cares? Kill them all if they dare to come!"

"So confident?"

Upon hearing Suzuki's words, Gojo Satoru's expression became slightly more serious.

"I possess this power!"

Suzuki's confident answer and the acquisition of the transformation through non-action meant that the restrictions on the use of Suzuki's life-giving technique, "Theft," had been lifted.

The next period will be a period of rapid growth for Suzuki, and he is confident that he will become the next Special Grade in a very short time.

Has the gunfire stopped?

Just as Suzuki and Gojo were talking, Itadori suddenly spoke up.

Suzuki listened intently, and indeed, the gunshots had ceased.

As Suzuki explained the other person's motives to Itadori, he prepared to peek out to take a look.

However, Suzuki pulled it back halfway and then called out to Gojo Satoru, who was standing in the open space:

"The new Superior Spell Spirit only intervened to cover Hanami and the others' retreat. Now that they've been blown to bits and their fates are unknown, there's no need to keep an eye on them anymore—Mr. Gojo, could you please check if they've left yet?"

"Why don't you do it yourself? You were so confident just now!"

Suzuki's actions made Gojo Satoru burst out laughing.

Just moments ago, he was arrogantly spouting boasts, saying he would kill as many as they came, but now he's immediately turned back into a coward.

It's really hard not to laugh.

Despite Gojo Satoru's mockery, Suzuki remained unfazed.

"Isn't this to highlight Mr. Gojo's outstanding contributions!"

"With that shameless attitude, you're sure to live a long life."

Although his tone was joking, Gojo Satoru's praise was genuine.

In the world of sorcery, being too concerned about one's reputation can become a weakness that enemies can exploit.

Sometimes, even such a small flaw can be fatal.

"Don't worry, they've already left, and they were very fast!"

Under Suzuki's watchful eye, Gojo Satoru reluctantly helped out.

However, by the end, Gojo Satoru's expression had become somewhat serious.

Because the cursed spirits several kilometers away are not only powerful in attack, but also incredibly fast.

As he retreated, he left a sonic boom cloud in the air with his leap.

With supersonic physical speed, he's really difficult to deal with, aside from himself, other highly skilled sorcerers.

With Gojo Satoru's assurance, Suzuki finally emerged from behind the bunker.

Only after confirming that there was no surprise attack coming at him did Suzuki beckon Itajit to come out.

Looking at the cyborg lying on the ground, barely recognizable as a human, Itadori asked with distress:

"What should be done with these victims?"

"You don't need to worry about this. I'll have someone come and handle it later."

Suzuki was about to suggest digging a hole and burying it, but Gojo Satoru took over the conversation seriously.

These corpses still retain cursed energy, and if they are buried carelessly, cursed spirits may easily breed again.

Therefore, it is necessary for professionals to remove the curse power first before further processing can be carried out.

Neither Itadori nor Suzuki raised any objections to Gojo Satoru's proposal.

He's the real expert in this area, so just listen to him.

Since there's no need to deal with the cyborg's corpse, there's no point in staying here any longer, Suzuki suggested instead:

"Shall we go and take a look at the site of the explosion?"

After the explosion, it's unknown whether any other cursed spirits were killed. Going to the scene might reveal some information.

"No way, they just used photos of vocational college students to threaten us."

I need to get back to school first to check if everyone's okay. Remember to share any information!

Gojo Satoru declined Suzuki's invitation. He was also very busy, especially after this incident, which would make him even busier.

Suzuki was somewhat disappointed to lose a bodyguard, but fortunately, he wasn't a fragile vase who needed constant protection.

After calling out to Itajō, the two headed towards the location of the explosion.
