Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1262 - 917: Would You Be Shocked?

It would be best to find the secondary curse spirit of the main target, as this would secure the victory.

Unfortunately, Itadori Yuji and the others had no idea that the Capital City School had no intention of winning the exchange meeting; they were coming straight for him.

"Woof!"

Suddenly, the white shikigami dog leading the way let out a bark, making Panda and Inumaki Toge’s expressions change dramatically.

"Yuji!"

Panda was the first to react, pushing the nearby Itadori Yuji away.

"Bang!"

At that very moment, a gunshot rang out.

In the forest, a bullet suddenly tore through countless trees, breaking the sound barrier, aiming at the spot where Itadori Yuji had stood a second earlier.

After Panda pushed Itadori Yuji away, the bullet missed, hitting the ground and creating a small hole while scattering some dirt.

"A gun...?!"

Itadori Yuji, pushed by Panda, was full of shock.

Obviously, this newcomer to the world of sorcery had never expected to see firearms here.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

Before he could react, several more gunshots rang out from the forest, sending bullets flying.

It’s worth mentioning that all these bullets were aimed at Itadori Yuji, ignoring Panda and Inumaki Toge.

"[Twist!]"

Seeing this, Inumaki Toge pulled down his collar covering his mouth and uttered a Curse.

"Buzz!"

Immediately, all the bullets aimed at Itadori Yuji had their trajectories twisted by a sudden surge of cursed energy, landing at his feet in a spray of dirt as he raised his hands to shield himself.

"There’s an opening."

But at the same time Inumaki Toge used [Curse], a small figure on a broomstick suddenly descended from the sky.

It was Nishimiya Momo.

As she flew down swiftly, she swung her broom, whipping up a fierce wind.

"Boom!"

Caught off-guard, Inumaki Toge was hit by the fierce wind and blown away, crashing into a tree.

"Toge!"

Panda was about to go and assist Inumaki Toge, but was stopped.

"[Sword Origin Release]."

A figure appeared behind Panda, suddenly extending blades from one hand, turning into a deadly weapon, stabbing towards Panda.

"Slash!"

With the sound of tearing, some of the fur on Panda’s back was torn open.

In a critical moment, Panda managed to dodge in time, avoiding a direct hit.

"You’re that curse corpse from the Capital City School?"

Panda, seeing the full appearance of the attacker, made such a sound.

"...Didn’t I say already?"

Mechanical Maru’s eyes gleamed red, raising its right arm that had turned into a deadly weapon.

"Don’t lump me together with you!"

With anger in its voice, Mechanical Maru charged at Panda.

Panda immediately switched forms, transforming into a half-gorilla panda, and engaged in a fight with Mechanical Maru.

Meanwhile, after crashing into the tree, Inumaki Toge was immediately met with Nishimiya Momo’s fierce pursuit, being blown away by fierce winds several times.

"Panda! Senior Inumaki!"

Itadori Yuji wanted to help, but was stopped by a mocking voice.

"You still have time to worry about others?"

In the forest, Zenin Mai slowly revealed herself, standing on a tree.

The tall girl held a revolver in her hand.

"Poor kid, blame it on becoming Sukuna’s vessel." Zenin Mai mocked, saying: "You’re no longer qualified to be called a human, let alone a curse mage."

"So, die.

Death will be a relief."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zenin Mai raised her hand without hesitation, shooting at Itadori Yuji.

"...You all came to kill me?"

This time, Itadori Yuji was prepared, immediately displaying his superhuman athletic ability, dodging the incoming bullets one by one with a few swift moves.

Realizing the opponent was targeting his life, Itadori Yuji, although shocked, intriguingly did not panic, nor did he lose his composure.

On the contrary, he was very calm and composed.

Because he understood very well that there indeed existed a monster within him, a bloodthirsty, evil, and incorrigible monster.

Therefore, he could understand why others wanted to kill him, because he also wanted to kill the detestable curse inside him.

But...

"I hope I can die meaningfully and help others as much as possible."

Itadori Yuji assumed a stance, with a cold yet determined look in his eyes.

"If I get killed here, all the efforts up to now will be in vain, right?"

Saying this, Itadori Yuji began to slowly refine his cursed energy.

"Refining cursed energy from faint emotions is a technique every Curse Mage knows."

Thinking of the words taught by the first-grade Curse Mage, Itadori Yuji, following that technique, began to slowly and systematically refine the cursed energy he never had before.

As the cursed energy was refined, it ignited on his hands like flowing flames, gradually spreading throughout his body.

The grandeur of that cursed energy, though far from matching Reiger’s full-hearted refinement before Yaga Masamichi, was enough to drastically change the expression of Zenin Mai, whose face was previously filled with mockery.

"You’re Makki’s sister, right?" Itadori Yuji stared at Zenin Mai and said, "Don’t worry, I will go easy on you."

Hearing this, Zenin Mai’s eyes widened slightly and then she bit her lip.

"Don’t underestimate me!"

As if seriously provoked, Zenin Mai suddenly raised her gun, shooting wildly at Itadori Yuji.

At the same time, Nishimiya Momo and Mechamaru, who were chasing Inumaki Toge and Panda, also suddenly changed direction and charged towards Itadori Yuji.

Their target was always Itadori Yuji.

Since that was the case, they naturally did not need to solve unrelated individuals one by one.

"Is Yuji the target?"

The gorilla-transformed Panda immediately chased after them.

"Cough, cough..."

As for Inumaki Toge, having already suffered considerable injuries under Nishimiya Momo’s deliberate targeting, he coughed up blood from his throat, temporarily unable to use [Curse Words] to support Itadori Yuji.

Thus, a slaughter targeting Itadori Yuji unfolded in the form of a melee.

A crow just happened to be about to fly over this area but quickly seemed to receive some instruction, changed its direction, and flew away, rendering the skirmish here unnoticed.

...

"Hmm?"

At this moment, Reiger, leisurely walking through the forest, seemed to sense something and lifted his head.

"Didn’t come my way, but went west instead?"

A transparent glint flashed in Reiger’s eyes, seemingly coming to some realization.

"Is the target Itadori?"

Having understood this point, Reiger instinctively wanted to change direction.

However, he soon stopped again.

"...I see."

Lifting his gaze, looking ahead, Reiger suddenly smiled.

"The target is not only Itadori but me too?"

Two figures appeared simultaneously before him, imprinting themselves in Reiger’s sight.

In response, Reiger simply said calmly.

"Aren’t you afraid of having too big an appetite and overwhelming yourselves?"

Hearing this, Kamo Noritoshi and Miwa Kasumi, who appeared before Reiger, did not respond.

Miwa Kasumi seemed a bit nervous, immediately gripping the hilt of her Sun Wheel Blade, appearing ready to draw at any moment.

Kamo Noritoshi, on the other hand, held a bow with a quiver of arrows on his waist, looking like a hunting priest, strangely exuding a sense of holiness.

"I am Kamo Noritoshi, the next head of the Kamoi Family."

Kamo Noritoshi did not ready his bow and arrow but instead slightly bowed towards Reiger, with an attitude neither arrogant nor humble, very dignified.

"Although we were introduced before, a self-introduction is still necessary, right?"

Kamo Noritoshi looked directly at Reiger, speaking out.

"Actually, there’s no need, since we are about to fight anyway." Reiger, like seeing through the other’s intentions, maintained his expression and said, "Unless you have another purpose."

Kamo Noritoshi did not deny it.

The atmosphere in this area instantly became somewhat subtle.
