Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1329 - 951: Do What Needs to Be Done

For Geto Suguru, Reiger only had some understanding from the original work and the descriptions of others.

It is said that he was originally a child from an ordinary family, who stepped into the world of sorcery because of being born with the innate [Curse Spirit Manipulation Technique]. He enrolled in the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College and happened to be contemporaries with the prominent figure of the sorcery world, Gojo Satoru, thus starting his journey as a Curse Mage.

Although he wasn’t as innately gifted as Gojo Satoru, he was also exceptionally talented. When Gojo Satoru was recognized as a special grade Curse Mage, he too became a registered special grade Curse Mage, thus developing a mutual admiration with Gojo Satoru.

During their time studying at the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College, they were always seen together, considered to be a golden duo, the strongest combination. Any task they undertook together was bound to be completed.

At that time, Geto Suguru was also a remarkably humane person, at least more humane than Gojo Satoru was at the same time.

Gojo Satoru, born special, seemed frivolous and unreliable at first glance, yet harbored great arrogance within. Although he didn’t necessarily look down on others, he never felt others were worthy of his high regard.

Geto Suguru was different. He always believed that a strong person’s power existed for the sake of protecting the weak. If not, then the strong have no reason to exist.

It can be said that Gojo Satoru’s life views gradually changed due to Geto Suguru’s outlook, eventually becoming what he is today.

However, just as Gojo Satoru was influenced by Geto Suguru and began to change, it was Geto Suguru himself, after witnessing the ugly side of ordinary people due to a task’s failure, who began to waver in his heart.

That was the first time Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru’s combination failed a mission.

It was also during this failure that Gojo Satoru faced a life-threatening crisis, awakening the reversal technique at the critical moment and comprehending the true essence of [Limitless Curse Technique], thus opening the doors to become the strongest of his time.

Meanwhile, Geto Suguru, upon witnessing his friend’s transformation and the world’s ugliness, found his sense of justice gradually distorting.

He began to feel that ordinary non-sorcerers were both ugly and ignorant, not worth protecting at the risk of his own life.

He started to believe that since Curses were beings born from humanity’s negative emotions, non-sorcerers were the source of such Curses, and their existence was inherently a sin.

Curse Mages, being able to control their own curse energy, did not let it overflow unconsciously; thus, all Curse Spirits and sources of Curses were, in fact, derived from the negative emotions of ordinary non-sorcerers.

With this realization, and after witnessing an important junior die in duty, compounded with seeing a child Curse Mage being treated as a monster and wantonly abused by ordinary non-sorcerers in a backward village, Geto Suguru’s internal turmoil and distortion completely erupted.

Thus, Geto Suguru massacred the villagers, cursed over a hundred ordinary people, and even personally killed non-sorcerer parents, determined to create a world only for sorcerers.

From then on, Geto Suguru became a Curse Master who despised non-sorcerers.

In his eyes, non-sorcerers were all monkeys.

This world should not be dominated by monkeys; it only needs sorcerers.

The Hundred Demons Night Parade in 2017 was a terrorist attack that occurred for this reason.

"This time, he probably orchestrated the Shibuya Incident for the same reason, right?"

Not only Reiger thought so, but everyone who knew Geto Suguru’s ideology thought so as well.

Thus, when Geto Suguru became the mastermind behind these events, no one was surprised or found it odd.

As long as Geto Suguru was alive, he wouldn’t mind initiating colossal curse events like the Shibuya Incident.

His act of sealing Gojo Satoru was also understandable, as Gojo Satoru was too strong, and letting him roam free would greatly hinder his plans.

Releasing Ryomensukuna could similarly be interpreted as his attempt to use this Curse King’s power to wreak havoc on the world.

This move would benefit him.

But what about Fushiguro Megumi?

What was the reason for taking Fushiguro Megumi?

"Should I say that there’s something on Fushiguro Megumi that attracts him?"

When thinking of this question, Reiger could only come to one conclusion.

"[Ten Shadows Technique]."

Indeed. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Fushiguro Megumi possesses the hereditary innate technique of the Zenin Family—[Ten Shadows Technique].

This is the only thing Reiger could think of that might attract the enemy.

"What does he want the [Ten Shadows Technique] for?"

Reiger had to ponder this question.

The [Ten Shadows Technique] is excellent, but limited to excellence.

Except for the final Shikigami, the other nine Shikigami, though far superior to regular ones, shouldn’t be enough to attract such an entity.

"During last year’s Hundred Demons Night Parade, Geto Suguru also attacked the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College, targeting the current second-year special grade Curse Mage, Okkotsu Yuta."

"Okkotsu Yuta had a Curse Spirit on him, that Curse Spirit was extraordinarily powerful. As a holder of the [Curse Spirit Manipulation Technique], Geto Suguru coveted that power, which led him to seek out Okkotsu Yuta, but unfortunately, he was ultimately defeated by Okkotsu Yuta."

"Could it be the same reason this time? Geto Suguru is eyeing the cursed divine general?"

Hmm... It’s not impossible.

The final Shikigami of the [Ten Shadows Technique], even in Reiger’s eyes, is considered very powerful, and can even be of great use to someone of his level.
