Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1427 - 1004: Curse Binding

From Lv.1 all the way up to Lv.9, Reiger has undergone eight level-ups.

This time’s upgrade is no different from the previous seven.

When the blessing’s "Lv.8" turns to "Lv.9", all of Reiger’s basic abilities return once more to the lowest stage, I.

As for the feeling...

"Hmm, the familiar sense of discord again."

Reiger reached out with one hand, flexing his palm.

The increase in level, the change in strength, once these impacts are significant, will cause the mind and body to be misaligned, the movements of spirit and body mismatched, resulting in uncoordinated physical actions, thereby affecting the combat power.

These are old issues that Reiger undergoes with each upgrade.

But as he has experienced it many times, his abilities in consciousness, experience, and skills have seen significant progress, and now Reiger no longer needs to spend a long time deliberately adapting; just a slight activity can quickly solve the problem.

"There’s still time, no rush."

Compared to the old issue of body discoordination, Reiger is more concerned about the all-new development ability obtained this time through leveling up — "Curse Binding."

Just from the name of the development ability, it’s clear that this is a development ability related to curses.

"I didn’t expect that the blessing of the Earth Mistake World could manifest development abilities relevant to the ability systems of other worlds."

Reiger was somewhat surprised.

However, on closer thought, this seems to be quite normal.

A blessing is merely a catalyst; when engraved into the adventurer’s body, regardless of the actions taken by adventurers, these actions will transform into experience points, nourish the blessing, promote the adventurer’s growth, and inspire various possibilities.

After Reiger improved the Sun Breathing and it evolved, he gained the skill [Pioneer of the Solar Circle], and the "Stake" Morgan planted on him manifested as the skill [Oath Stake], all serving as proof.

Now, Reiger, having come into contact with a new power system in this world, has obtained power known as "curse magic," this growth and experience will also turn into experience points, become nourishment, and enrich his blessing.

So, Reiger being able to unearth development abilities related to curse magic is actually quite normal.

Upon discovering this development ability, Reiger was also unhesitant in choosing it and acquiring it.

Though not yet tested, if his guess is correct, this development ability should be of the same nature as "Magic."

The role of "Magic" is to enhance the power of magic, the effectiveness of magic, the range of magic effects, etc., even optimizing the spiritual power, serving as an all-purpose magic-specific auxiliary ability.

"Curse Binding" is estimated to be similar, able to boost the power of curse magic, the effects, the scope, etc., and increase the efficiency of curse energy utilization, enhance the intensity of curse energy, being a curse magic-specific auxiliary ability.

"Judging from the name, this development ability may also be akin to the concept of binding."

"A mage forms bindings, sacrificing certain things to exchange for more formidable strength."

"Then ’Curse Binding’ might have a similar principle, perhaps akin to enhancing abilities without needing to pay a price?"

Reiger thinks his speculation, even if not entirely correct, is likely quite close.

"Let’s test it out."

Reiger refined his curse energy, allowing it to flow.

This refining of curse energy immediately revealed some initial changes to Reiger.

"The operation of curse energy has become simpler, more at ease."

Reiger swiftly channeled curse energy to his palm, making his palm seem ablaze, manifesting flowing flame-like curse energy.

"The difficulty of such operation... even if my curse energy manipulation skills are the same as a regular mage, with the assistance of ’Curse Binding’, the intensity of curse energy operation wouldn’t be weaker than Gojo Satoru’s, would it?"

In other words, if a common mage obtained this development ability "Curse Binding", they would immediately possess curse energy manipulation comparable to Six Eyes.

If those in the Gojo Family who inherited the born Jutsushiki [Limitless Curse Techniques] but didn’t have Six Eyes could also possess a development ability like "Curse Binding", they could deftly wield [Limitless Curse Techniques] in an instant.

"This is really..."

Reiger chuckled, ever more impressed by the excellence of this development ability "Curse Binding."

"[Jutsushiki jyunten Ao]."

"[Jutsushiki hanten Aka]."

Reiger continuously used the techniques [Ao] and [Aka] on his palm, causing red and blue curse light to swiftly appear.

The transformation speed of the red and blue curse light was fast, the transition process smooth, giving Reiger the feeling that he could casually conjure [Void Style·Purple].

Even the inviolable force of cessation became exceptionally easy to manipulate, and even if Reiger did nothing, it could operate seamlessly 24/7, automatically detecting harmful and harmless entities, autonomously deciding whether to stop or repel them.

Gojo Satoru aims to achieve this, needing his reversing Jutsushiki to operate unconsciously, keeping his brain constantly healed, maintaining freshness, to prevent the seamless operation of techniques from burdening the brain.

Previously, Reiger did the same, prompting Gojo Satoru to exclaim in amazement.

After all, the time Gojo spent in training to achieve this level was measured in years.

As for Reiger?

He accomplished it in less than two months, truly inhuman.

But now, Reiger has become even more inhuman.

Due to the existence of "Curse Binding," Reiger now unfolds seamless inviolability as naturally and simply as eating and drinking.

Would eating and drinking impose a burden on the body?

Of course, it’s impossible.

Therefore, Reiger no longer needs to subconsciously activate the reversal technique to heal his brain. He can effortlessly withstand 24-hour non-stop automatic deployment and automatic detection.

"Snap!"

Suddenly, Reiger snapped his fingers.

"Swipe!"

A bottle of alcohol instantly appeared out of thin air, falling into his hand.

"Activating [Unjust Game] has become much simpler."

Holding the bottle, Reiger played with it as he thought.

"Now, I should be able to instantly disperse cursed energy over a range of several kilometers and freely replace positions of any objects within that range."

"Even a speck of dust floating in the air, I can switch places with it."

This was something Reiger could already do before.

That’s why, in his battle with Ryomensukuna, Reiger seemingly didn’t need to replace with any object to transfer instantly.

In reality, he did replace, but just with an invisible speck of dust.

This is what Reiger values most about [Unjust Game].

Its advantage over teleportation magic is that Reiger doesn’t need to physically touch something to transfer.

As long as it’s within the range of his dispersed cursed energy and the technique, he can effortlessly control any enemy’s position.

Imagine how useful this can be in combat.

"If this technique falls into the hands of a tactical master who excels at thinking, its value could far exceed [Limitless Sorcery] and [Ten Shadow Techniques] type sorcery, right?"

Reiger began experimenting various things on the rooftop.

Until—

"Hey, what are you doing here?"

A familiar voice came from behind, causing Reiger to stop his actions.

Without needing to turn around, Reiger knew who it was.

"How did you know I was here?"

Reiger smirked and asked.

"Did you think your cursed energy could hide under Six Eyes?"

The other person said irritably, then jumped onto the railing, standing beside the seated Reiger.

It was, of course, Gojo Satoru.

Today, Gojo Satoru seemed to be in a rare relaxed state. He wore casual clothes and wasn’t wearing his blindfold, letting his pair of azure eyes shine with intoxicating brilliance under the moonlit night.

"So, what exactly are you doing here?" Gojo Satoru casually asked, "You were exerting cursed energy just now, someone might think you’re fighting again."

If Reiger hadn’t used much cursed energy, Gojo Satoru might have thought he was attacked and rushed over.

"Nothing much." Reiger shrugged, "Just experimenting with abilities, nothing strange, right?"

Indeed, for Reiger, this wasn’t strange.

Since before, he’d been constantly honing various techniques and abilities; Gojo Satoru naturally knew this well.

"Really?" Gojo Satoru said helplessly, "We’re already having a celebration banquet, and you’re still training hard?"

This guy, even though he’s stronger than me, and by such a margin, still works hard.

"For me, it’s a habit now." Reiger smiled indifferently, "Maybe it’s a type of illness, one that can never be changed."

"It would be better if you changed it, right?" Gojo Satoru scratched his head, "If you ever have a girlfriend, she wouldn’t be able to stand it."

"That’s none of your concern." Reiger looked at Gojo Satoru with exasperation, "I already have a partner, okay?"

"And you, almost 30, when will you settle down and start a family?"

"You have your career; starting a family should be on the agenda, right?"

Saying this, Reiger smiled again.

"After all, you’re going to be the principal."

Indeed.

Gojo Satoru is going to be the principal.

Because Yaga Masamichi, the principal of Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College, was executed, leaving the principal position vacant.

The Magic Technical College isn’t just a school; it’s a key location in the world of sorcery, a base for many curse mages, so the principal position cannot remain vacant.

Thus, after discussions with the Department of Sorcery Supervisors, it was decided to let Gojo Satoru, the strongest sorcerer of the generation, take the position of principal of Tokyo Magic Technical College.

Upon hearing this decision, Reiger and many others immediately had one thought.

"Tokyo Magic Tech is doomed."

Gojo Satoru is tremendously beloved.
