Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1271 - 922: That’s Why You Don’t Understand the Advantages of Being Big
Reiger, lost in thought, was unaware that Todo Aoi’s mood did not improve with his praise at that moment.
Glancing at his bleeding arm, only Todo Aoi knew that he actually didn’t feel much pain.
Because that hand had almost lost all sensation.
(What a monster...)
Todo Aoi had to give such an evaluation.
His [Boogie Woogie] was indeed an excellent curse technique, but the reason why Todo Aoi was strong was not just because of his outstanding curse technique.
You have to know, once, he exorcised a special-grade curse spirit and five grade 1 curse spirits at the same time, but he only used a curse technique against the special-grade curse spirit and didn’t even need to activate it to deal with the five grade 1 curse spirits.
This was all because he was strong even without curse techniques.
His physical abilities were exceptional, incomparable even to the current Zenin Maki, and only Itadori Yuji, that non-human, could slightly surpass him.
His use of curse energy was also outstanding, and being able to execute [Black Flash] in combat was proof enough of that.
Thus, Todo Aoi excelled in close combat, ranking among grade 1 curse mages even without using a curse technique.
If you add curse energy, even the current Itadori Yuji would be no match for Todo Aoi without using a curse technique.
It’s easy to imagine how strong Todo Aoi was.
However, in those few encounters with Reiger, Todo Aoi didn’t gain the upper hand even once, each time being violently crushed.
The most terrifying part was that, apart from using [Black Flash] on the last punch, Reiger hadn’t used curse energy at all in the previous punches!
Yes!
The opponent, without using curse energy, overpowered his full-out cursed self with just sheer physical strength!
And even so, the opponent seemed to be holding back deliberately, apparently not using all his physical abilities!
What else could you call him but a monster?
(It seems the rumor that he could easily exorcise special-grade curse spirits before even coming into contact with curse energy and curse techniques is true.)
The opponent indeed had the ability to exorcise special-grade curse spirits without relying on curse energy and curse techniques.
Although, without curse energy, attacks should be ineffective against curse spirits, it was said the opponent used a sword when exorcising special-grade curse spirits; that sword should be a cursed tool with a curse of its own?
In that case, it indeed could exorcise special-grade curse spirits.
Though Todo Aoi appeared quite rugged, in reality, he was quite meticulous, thus able to make such an analysis.
Of course, his analysis was only half correct.
The main reason Reiger could exorcise the special-grade curse spirit in the juvenile hall without curse energy was twofold.
One was because the quality of the artifact itself was enough to compare with world-class items, engraved with God-dedicated Holy Text, possessing growth attributes, and composed of the essence of Mountain Copper, Mithril, Ape Crimson Iron, and Ape Crimson Ore, it could defeat even monsters of the underworld, so naturally, it could subjugate curse spirits.
The other was Reiger’s own skill—[Sun Cycle Pioneer] carries a special attack capability, exhibiting extra restraint against the evil faction; curse spirits, being evil entities born of human negative emotions, naturally suffer unavoidable targeting.
Thus, even without curse energy and curse techniques, Reiger could harm curse spirits without the need for a cursed tool’s assistance.
People, including Todo Aoi, assumed Reiger was relying on the power of cursed tools to exorcise special-grade curse spirits without grasping curse energy and curse techniques, not knowing that Reiger’s mere existence was already equivalent to being the nemesis of curses.
Any curse, before him, has no reason to remain unexorcised.
As for now...
"Since you’re using curse techniques, I won’t hold back either."
Reiger finished thinking, extending a hand toward Todo Aoi.
"Don’t even think about it!"
Todo Aoi stomped the ground without hesitation, and his sturdy body flashed toward Reiger with agility and speed that didn’t match his physique.
While Reiger wasn’t using curse techniques, he still was not his opponent; if the opponent used [Unlimited Cursed Technique], an almost invincible curse technique, then he would have no chance of winning.
In such a scenario, Todo Aoi naturally understood that stopping Reiger from activating the technique was the best strategy.
Unfortunately, Reiger activated the technique much faster than Todo Aoi anticipated.
"Zeng!"
Almost instantly as he raised his hand, blue cursed energy light appeared on Reiger’s hand.
[Unlimited Cursed Technique] is a technique that brings ’infinity’ from magical concepts into reality.
When normally activated, the technique can turn oneself into an inviolable object of stopping power.
When activated in reverse, the output reaches positive infinity, repelling everything with overwhelming force.
When activated in sequence, the output reaches negative infinity, creating a massive force of attraction.
[He] is the reverse of [Unlimited Cursed Technique], and that concentrated red light represents the manifesting overwhelming force of repulsion like a small supernova.
And the blue light newly appearing in Reiger’s hand was the manifestation of the dispersing, expanding, black hole-like force of attraction.
"[Jutsushiki jyunten Ao]."
Once the technique was activated, in front of Todo Aoi, the blue light became a ball of light.
"Rumble..."
The ground trembled abruptly, starting to crack.
At the location of the blue light ball, everything within a radius of tens of meters was shredded to pieces under the terrifying gravity suddenly emerging.
