Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1212 - 885: Jujutsu

The familiar feeling of traveling.

The familiar sensation of landing.

When the consciousness materialized, the real and tangible feeling of feet on the ground permeated Reiger’s senses, making him feel a sudden brightness as finally, he could see things clearly.

But...

"Where is this?"

The scene before him made Reiger freeze in place.

At this moment, he found himself in a rather strange space.

Why call it a strange space?

Because it certainly doesn’t seem like a place that truly exists.

Surrounding him were extremely tall dormitory buildings, not skyscrapers, yet taller than any so-called skyscraper, as if several dormitory buildings were stacked together. Although tall, they imparted a sense of awkwardness.

Countless pipes appeared around these tall buildings, some woven between buildings, some climbing wall surfaces, others piled in corners, and some piercing various places like sharp instruments, looking utterly abnormal.

Most abnormal of all, there was no sky visible here, only a ceiling-like expanse, giving Reiger the feeling of perhaps entering a sewer, dark and damp.

Reiger suddenly barged into such a place, standing in an empty plaza, resembling someone about to enter a ghost market or hell, like an unwelcome guest. If such a scene were put into a horror film’s promotional ad, the frightening atmosphere would be instantly conveyed.

"What kind of ghost place is this?"

Reiger frowned, transparent light flashing in his eyes as he activated the Clear World.

However, to Reiger’s surprise, the Clear World, which usually could infinitely amplify his senses to the point of seeing through walls and barriers, couldn’t see through the surrounding buildings this time.

Instead, a power similar to Magic Power, closer to spiritual power but filled with a sense of darkness, was received by Reiger’s Clear World.

This is...

"Negative spiritual power?"

Reiger’s frown deepened.

In his senses, this strange space was filled everywhere with negative spiritual power similar to Magic Power, even those bizarre buildings and sights were condensed from such negative spiritual power, hence why the Clear World couldn’t see through.

Those buildings and landscapes weren’t physical objects, just condensed negative spiritual power or manifested projections, basically containing nothing inside.

This reminded Reiger of the information handed over by the Dimensional Magic Cube before his dimensional travel.

"Jujutsu Kaisen"... huh?

It seemed he had arrived in a rather peculiar world.

"So, this so-called negative spiritual power is Curse power?"

Understanding this point, Reiger roughly grasped his current situation.

Before this, Reiger tried recalling the information about this world.

This was a world entirely different from the many worlds Reiger had previously experienced.

Here, there was no Magic, nor sword techniques, but a power named "Curse" existed.

It is a type of negative emotion overflowing from humans.

In this world, once the negative emotions of humans overflowed to a certain degree, they could form something called a "Curse."

A Curse could be Curse power or Curse Spirit, and even various cursed objects and tools.

If someone could extract power from these negative emotions, forming Curse power, they could fight using Curse power or activate techniques called "Jujutsu" to obtain extraordinary powers.

People of this kind are called Curse Mages.

Curse Mages are not widely known in the human world, existing as entities hidden on the world’s other side, specially responsible for removing curses and eliminating Curse Spirits.

The Curse power formed by humans’ negative emotions may congregate and transform into a biological entity entirely constituted by Curse power, such a biological entity being a Curse Spirit.

Curse Spirits are invisible, only visible before those possessing Curse power or under special circumstances, rendering physical attacks ineffective with only attacks formed from Curse power being effective against them.

These Curse Spirits unseen by ordinary people are like monsters from the Akasha Continent and Overlord world, akin to the monsters of Earth Mistake World and demons of the Demon Slayer World, all harboring malice towards humanity, attacking and killing humans.

The duty of Curse Mages is to eradicate these Curse Spirits, deal with cursed items capable of forming disasters, secretly safeguarding this world.

This is what Reiger knows about the setting of "Jujutsu Kaisen."

Therefore, he concluded that the negative spiritual power filling the surroundings was indeed Curse power.

Because Curse power is formed from human negative emotions, and emotions are linked to the spirit, the Curse power of this world perceived by Reiger is a form of dark spiritual power, similar yet different from the Magic Power refined from spiritual power in Earth Mistake World, thus receiving a seemingly accurate evaluation.

And this place filled with Curse power likely is not some actual creation, but a realm created using techniques by either a Curse Mage or Curse Spirit.

As to whose realm this is and which part of the original storyline or timeframe he’s in... 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Unfortunately, Reiger couldn’t recall.

"Surprisingly, there’s something I can’t remember..."

Reiger, with exceptional memory capable of awakening [Omni-capable] memory magic, couldn’t recall the original storyline of "Jujutsu Kaisen," showing how unfamiliar he was with this world.
