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

"I understand. I've also heard about Miss Mingming's reputation for setting her own prices."

"Could I have your business card? It'll be helpful if I ever have the chance to do business with you."

Mingming raised an eyebrow but didn't reply. However, a business card accidentally fell out of her pocket.

Because of Suzuki's words, almost everyone's attention was focused on her.

Therefore, Mingming's actions were so blatant that even the students behind him were speechless.

Leyan Temple gripped the electric guitar strap slung over his shoulder, and his magical energy rippled slightly along the strings:

"Suzuki, the Jujutsu Supervision Department has made its decision."

You are suspected of colluding with cursed spirits to massacre dozens of innocent civilians in a public area. You are sentenced to death, to be carried out immediately.

"Death penalty? Is that all the magic tricks your Department of Curses knows?"

Suzuki slowly stood up, blood dripping from the hair at his temples onto the steps, splashing into small, dark flowers.

"Or do you think everyone is like that idiot, Yuta Ekiku?"

"Do you think people will just submit to the death penalty just because you mention it?"

"All the evidence at the scene points to you. What explanation do you have?"

Yoshinobu Rakuganji slowly plucked a string from the electric guitar, and a piercing, discordant sound rang out.

An invisible curse was already pressing down on Suzuki.

"Let's do it."

No sooner had the words left her mouth than Mingming took the initiative to move.

Although the two had just had a pleasant conversation, she wouldn't hold back when it came time to make her move.

It was precisely because of this understanding that Leyan Temple remained silent in the face of Weiming's blatant collusion with the enemy.

Her specially crafted cursed axe, accompanied by the sound of wind cutting through the air, cleaved straight down towards Suzuki's skull.

This axe strike was swift and ruthless; the incantation surrounding the blade cut through the air with a sharp, shrill sound.

Suzuki neither dodged nor avoided, but instead spread his arms, preparing to give Mingming a "hug and kill" move.

The moment the giant axe struck Suzuki's body, Suzuki's body twisted and deformed rapidly.

Just enough space was left for the giant axe to pass through.

The giant axe passed right through Suzuki's body and slammed into the steps beneath his feet.

The hard marble shattered into a pile of rubble in an instant, and a deep crack spread along the steps all the way to the corner of the wall.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. The moment the giant axe hit the ground, Mingming also appeared within Suzuki's attack range.

Suzuki suddenly clasped his hands together, not with much force, as if he really just wanted to give Mingming a hug.

But Mingming, standing in front of Suzuki, felt a chill run straight to the top of her head.

The sense of impending doom was so intense that it made the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end.

Without thinking twice, she released her grip on the weapon.

He twisted his waist and abdomen forcefully to the side by half a foot, narrowly avoiding Suzuki's seemingly casual move.

"headmaster!"

With a sharp shout from the depths of the sky, Rakuenji flicked his fingers, and the power of his incantation transformed into a sound wave that struck Suzuki, neutralizing Suzuki's pursuit.

After creating some distance, Mingming breathed a sigh of relief and then quickly shared the information.

"Be careful of his hands, don't get touched, it's dangerous."

Even though she was used to seeing big scenes, her gaze towards Suzuki became more serious.

Just as the unseen forces don't hold back when they're paid to do favors, Suzuki had no intention of going easy on Suzuki either.

If Suzuki were to encounter her, he wouldn't show her any mercy.

Chapter 138: The Price

Suzuki also heard the voice from the depths of his being.

This confirmed for Suzuki that the techniques he possessed had not yet been exposed.

The mastermind behind the scenes used the Jujutsu Supervision Department to send these people to intercept and kill Suzuki, which was also part of the plan to target Suzuki.

The people who came were of different backgrounds and had very complicated relationships.

In addition, there was the "official" stance they represented at that time.

If Suzuki were to kill one or two of them, he would essentially be cutting himself off from the world of sorcery.

At that point, even Gojo Satoru might not be able to protect him.

But it's absolutely impossible to expect Suzuki to surrender and be executed without resistance.

Suzuki focused his attention on sensing the surrounding magical energy locking him in, and before he knew it, he had already moved to the side.

Yoshinobu Rakuganji stood guard at the main exit, while the students from the Kyoto school, led by Kenkichi Kamo, formed a battle formation.

The entire encirclement was airtight, clearly indicating that thorough preparations had been made.

"Hey, why don't you defend yourself?"

Higashido Aoi, who had been standing at the back of the mall lobby, asked Suzuki with a gloomy face.

Hearing what Toudou Aoi said, Suzuki turned his head and glanced at him.

Since entering the mall, Higashido Aoi has remained silent and did not cooperate when Mimi made her move.

If Toudou Aoi also goes all out, the combination of Unjust Game and several level-one sorcerers will still be quite troublesome.

"There's no need, it's pointless anyway."

"Really!"

Suzuki's answer was very calm, but it was full of distrust of the higher-ups in the jutsu world.

Higashido Aoi took a deep breath, then turned and left.

Seeing that Toudou Aoi was showing signs of withdrawing from the battlefield, Rakuganji's face darkened, and he called out in a deep voice:

"Dongtang, where are you going?"

"I'm going to investigate the truth, do you have a problem with that, old man?"

Toudou Aoi turned her head and glanced at Rakuganji with a furious look in her eyes.

Dongtang Kui did not know what the mission was beforehand; he received the news on the way and rushed over.

However, Toudou Aoi wasn't stupid. As soon as she entered the mall lobby, she sensed something was wrong.

Regardless of the corpses that were smashed to pieces, the wounds on the still intact corpses of ordinary people did not seem to be caused by humans.

Large amounts of residual cursed energy remained in the air.

At first glance, it's obvious there's more to this than meets the eye. Normally, a thorough investigation should be conducted before drawing any conclusions.

The old man from Leyan Temple directly conveyed the death sentence notice from the Department of Curses.

There's no need to even think about it now; there's definitely something fishy going on.

Unlike Mingming, who was only interested in profit, Dongtang was a fairly decent person.

When Dongtang glared at him, Leyan Temple's breath hitched.

He had no doubt that if he continued to force Dongtang to take action, Dongtang would turn around and attack him instead.

However, it is absolutely not advisable to let Toudou Aoi leave the battle directly.

His techniques are extremely important; they are indispensable in this battle, whether for support or rescue.

"Stop! You don't have to take action, but you must ensure their safety!"

The "they" referred to at Rakuganji Temple are the other students at Kyoto Higher Vocational School.

After experiencing how difficult Suzuki was, the old man was already somewhat regretful about bringing these students along.

Dongtang stopped in his tracks, his breathing becoming rapid, but he finally responded in a gruff voice:

"Got it. I'll keep an eye on things here. Nothing will go wrong."

After he finished speaking, he actually stepped back to the side of the student group, stood with his arms crossed, and scanned the entire scene with his eyes. He neither pressed forward to approach Suzuki again nor mentioned leaving again.

Rakuganji breathed a sigh of relief and turned his attention back to Suzuki.

My fingertips touched the electric guitar strings again, and a deep, magical energy rippled across the guitar.

"Suzuki, now that things have come to this, you have nowhere to run. Surrender and you'll suffer less."

Suzuki chuckled and slowly moved his wrist, the knuckles making a crisp cracking sound.

"If you're going to fight, then fight! Why all this nonsense?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Suzuki suddenly pushed off with his feet and charged straight toward Rakuganji Temple.

Having just launched a surprise attack from the shadows, Suzuki is now returning the favor.

Just then, he was furious because he had been tricked and had nowhere to vent his anger.

The cursed power condensed into a blinding ball of light on the fist, which slammed towards Leyan Temple's face with a whistling sound.

Leyan Temple was prepared. With a sudden flick of its fingers, it plucked the strings of its zither, and a deafening sonic boom exploded outwards.

The violent sound waves collided with Suzuki's requiem, causing a slight distortion in the air.

Immediately following was a violent shockwave that erupted and spread from the point where the two attacks intersected.

This will just drive away the crows that are closing in from all directions.

That was a mysterious technique—the Black Bird Manipulation Technique.

It can control some small to medium-sized birds and share the field of vision with the controlled object; it's a very common technique.

But if Mingming was able to become a first-level sorcerer with such a technique, then this ordinary technique is no longer ordinary.

After being driven back, the crows in mid-air did not pause for a moment. After circling half a circle, they charged at Suzuki again.

This time, a violent magical reaction erupted from the crow's body.

This is the development of the technique by Mingming. Through the effect of binding, the life of the crow is used as a price to unleash a powerful attack, which is called - Divine Wind!

The sacrifice of each crow can become a powerful blow that can create a hole in the body of a top-tier cursed spirit.

Dozens of crows would charge at you, and even a top-tier cursed spirit would perish on the spot.

Suzuki did not back down at all, releasing his magical power from his hands, and terrifying shockwaves emanated from them.

It instantly encompassed most of the mall lobby.

The crows' flight paths were immediately severely disrupted, and more than a dozen crows even exploded into a cloud of blood mist on the spot.

The remaining crows were no longer able to block Suzuki's route.

With a burst of magical power beneath his feet, Suzuki passed through the gaps between the crows.

The crow's life-consuming charge showed no sign of stopping, crashing heavily into the mall's floor and walls after passing through Suzuki.

The deafening roar of explosions continued, and huge craters, resembling shell craters, appeared in the students' field of vision.

Amidst the deafening roar, Suzuki was launched like a cannonball in front of Rakuganji Temple.

Rakuganji was taken aback when he didn't expect Suzuki to dare ignore the mysterious divine wind attack.

He quickly plucked the strings of his guitar to release a sound wave, preparing to receive Suzuki's punch.

The raging sonic waves, combining offense and defense, are the specialty of Leyan Temple.

But at the same time as the sound waves erupted, a high-frequency burst of magical energy also burst forth from Suzuki's hands.

There is still a gap between the frequency of Suzuki's requiem and the vibration frequency of the sound, but the two vibrations cancel each other out to some extent.

Suzuki withstood the remaining sound waves by transforming his body into a softer, more passive form.

With an unexpected fighting style, Suzuki broke through the sound waves and grabbed Rakuganji by the collar.

Taking advantage of the brief lull in their fight, Mingming had already picked up the giant axe again and silently circled around to Suzuki's back.

The axe blade cleaved towards Suzuki's lower back again, this time at a tricky angle, with even more concentrated curse power than before.
