Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1218 - 888: The Strongest Curse Mage of the Present Era

At this moment, night has fallen, and the city’s nightlife is about to officially begin.

On the bustling streets, Reiger stands in the middle of an intersection, looking at everything around him, showing a somewhat nostalgic expression.

"It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a scene..."

The streetlights and billboards along the street lit up one by one as night fell.

Colorful lights and the glow of electronic screens crisscross the streets, casting the road in a tawny hue.

Neon lights are everywhere, and people’s clothing is diverse, with the faint sound of pleasant music coming from the clothing stores and restaurants by the street.

These familiar scenes cause Reiger, standing at the busy intersection, to remain motionless for a long time.

"...Has he never seen a big city’s night before?"

"He looks a bit like a country bumpkin who just entered the city, how funny."

"Weren’t you the same when you first came, Kugisaki?"

"What...I, I wasn’t! Stop joking!"

"You guys, can you be quiet? People are watching us!"

As Reiger was lost in nostalgia, a burst of conversation or rather, noisy chatter behind him pulled him back, making him show an annoyed expression.

"Didn’t I tell you not to look at me like that?"

At that moment, Reiger turned around, looking at the trio that had been following him, and said helplessly.

"I admit I was a bit entranced, after all, it’s been a long time since I returned to a modern city."

Reiger didn’t deny this point.

So far, he has visited many worlds, but these worlds are vastly different from the world of his previous life.

The Akasha Continent, needless to say, is a medieval fantasy world with swords and magic.

The Earth Mistake World and Overlord World are similar, with no modern elements.

The Demon Slayer World is from the Taisho era, which to Reiger is a period from a hundred years ago. It feels more like traveling to an illusory past than returning to a familiar world. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

As for the Fairy Country’s different tale, it’s needless to say—it’s a world of fairies. If Reiger was unaware of the original story, it would be a completely strange, foreign world to him.

Considering all this, since he began traveling, Reiger hasn’t returned to a modern setting, not to mention the world of his past life; he hasn’t even visited a modern world with a similar background to that world.

In such circumstances, everything around Reiger naturally feels incredibly close, with an indescribable sense of familiarity rushing towards him, making him inevitably a bit emotional.

Yet being regarded as a country bumpkin by Itadori Yuji and others is not what he wanted.

"By the way, do you guys still plan to follow me around like this?" Reiger asked, arms crossed, looking at Itadori Yuji and the other two, "I’ve already exorcised that annoying Curse Spirit right in front of you, yet you still suspect I’m a Curse Master?"

Upon hearing this, the three of them exchanged glances and all came up to Reiger.

"Sorry, even if you’re not a Curse Master, for the time being, we can’t just let you run around unsupervised." Fushiguro Megumi said, staring at Reiger, "We haven’t figured out your identity and background yet, but your power is frighteningly strong. If we let you run amok in the country, it might lead to more serious incidents than a special-grade Curse Spirit appearing."

"In short, you’re still very suspicious right now, very suspicious," Kugisaki Nobara said bluntly, "Why don’t you just explain your identity and background? Then we wouldn’t have to keep following you. I still want to browse the night market; I don’t want to be wandering around behind a country bumpkin man, people would question my taste."

"That’s harsh, Kugisaki," Itadori Yuji retorted, "You’re from the countryside too, yet you call others country bumpkins."

"Mind your own business!" Kugisaki Nobara glared fiercely at Itadori Yuji, "I’ve already left the countryside and will never go back. I’m a city person now, don’t you dare call me a country bumpkin again!"

"But you always carry nails and a hammer," Itadori Yuji said with a chuckle, "It’s like you’re a country girl coming to the city as a repair worker."

"Those are my curse tools! You idiot!" Kugisaki Nobara exploded angrily, "Dare to call the future big star Kugisaki Nobara a country girl... you’re dead, Itadori! I’ll nail you with a straw doll when I get back! I’ll curse you in my room!"

Hearing this, Itadori Yuji shivered, turning pale.

It’s not that he’s cowardly, but he knows very well that besides carrying nails and a hammer at all times, this woman does indeed have a straw doll.

Considering Kugisaki Nobara’s curse techniques, her threats are definitely not just for show!

"Enough, you two." Fushiguro Megumi couldn’t take it anymore, his previously serious expression collapsing as he rubbed his forehead, "We’re on official business, and this is part of the mission, so have some sense of urgency."

"And since you’re Curse Mages, don’t joke about curses casually."

"Furthermore, you’re attracting attention; please take a look around."

After being scolded by Fushiguro Megumi, Itadori Yuji and Kugisaki Nobara realized that the passersby around them had already started to stop and watch unnoticed.

"What are you looking at? Never seen a big star?"

Kugisaki Nobara’s fierce expression immediately scared the people away.
