Cupid

small issue?

For Gojo Satoru, recovering special-grade spell objects can be considered a small problem, but Keizai, who just entered the magic school, is a second-level ordinary magician.

Even though he has the ability to perform missions alone in less than a year after entering school, and has attracted the attention of the clan because of his excellent spells, as a parent, you should fully believe in Hui's strength.

But when you encounter things related to "two-faced Nuo", you really can't keep calm.

"...It shouldn't be that kind of technique. I never encountered such a problem when I kept it."

"So could it be that... it really ran out? It's also possible that it was used by the curse master or the curse."

If you whisper your conjectures with your lips, all kinds of dark possibilities keep squeezing your fragile nerves.

"What to do, what to do?"

You stared helplessly at Gojo Satoru, your eyes were covered with anxious tears, and you were about to hang the fingers that took the gift bag stiffly in the air, which caused the opposite clerk to show an extremely distressed expression.

"I think the possibility is relatively small."

"You are really afraid of him. It's just a joke with you, don't take it so seriously!"

Speak comforting words in a brisk voice, and put the phone back into his pocket, Gojo Satoru passed over you who was stiff with one hand, and took the bag of Xi Jiufu that made you queue for a long time, and patted you twice on the back with the other hand.

He tilted his head at you very innocently, and explained:

"Ah, ah, ah, Hui's last phone call has been chasing after Can Hui to find the person involved, and all he needs to do is to get it back."

"Although I don't know what the specific reason is. But among the fingers kept by the curse expert, the flowering one is the one with the mildest curse and the most stable breath... Therefore, based on the principle of maximum utilization, it is not sealed in the knot. Instead, it is arranged to be used in the school as an evil spirit.”

"After ten years, no accidents happened at all!"

"It does no harm to people, but the characteristic of constantly actively absorbing curses and nurturing the holder will wear down the seal a lot... Well, today is just to recycle and strengthen the seal."

As Gojo Satoru said, the fingers that Su Nuo left for you lay quietly in the wooden box to emit power except on the day when the flame was released in the Tianyuan barrier.

Although the amount given is not much, it quietly stabilizes your spiritual core, allowing you to live extremely peacefully except for the occasional drowsiness, and will never appear in this state of pain and thirst of the spiritual core...

But that's just the case on your hands.

Frivolous words can't appease the anxiety in your heart at all, and you realized that you have already held Gojo Satoru's arm, begging him to go back early by saying "don't worry about Hui".

"Doting."

Gojo Satoru let out a long sigh.He lowered his head and looked at you helplessly for a while, then called his old friend Yi Yizhi to book the nearest high-speed rail ticket, and arranged the way of travel after leaving the station.

You took this opportunity to call Fu Heihui, on the one hand wanting to know the latest situation, on the other hand trying to persuade him not to act rashly before Gojo Satoru rushes over.

The phone didn't connect.What appeared on the other end was a plain voice prompt——

"I'm Fu Heihui. I'm dealing with urgent matters. Please leave a message after the beep."

In the intense and fierce struggle against the curse, a moment of negligence can lead to a dead end.In order to prevent sudden calls from distracting attention, most conjurers in the mission will turn off their mobile phones.

In other words, what Fu Heihui is facing is no longer the object-finding task that Wutiao Wu said that he can answer the phone to collect information at any time.

In addition to the communication methods used by ordinary people, you who have established a "bond" with Fu Heihui can also get in touch with him through other methods.

Just like after you put the souls of Otsubaki and Kagura into the wooden box, you can freely use spells such as "remote curse" and "dance of dragon and snake".

After Hui promised "willing to use life for you", you also obtained the power to use other spells invisibly——

You can perform some operations on Hui's skills regardless of Hui's wishes.

The content includes but is not limited to using his shadow to communicate, or directly teleporting to his side...

This is your hole card, packaged as a special contractual relationship between master and servant.

No matter how sharp the six eyes are, they can't see through the essence of the spell of Hui, who is also Yusanjia.

It's just that this kind of power is very limited by Hui's familiarity with spells.

【Too far】

【I can only know that Kei is not injured yet】

Looking at the dark night outside the window of the high-speed train, unspeakable emotions enveloped you, making you feel confused and bewildered.

Constantly praying that the train could approach Hui's location faster, you unconsciously touched your face with your fingers, the curse pattern on the temple——

It's hot.

……

After the contract was reconnected, it brought bad news:

"It's bleeding, Hui's head is hurt...a lot of blood."

"There is no way to summon Shikigami anymore."

The cruel reality made your face instantly turn pale.At that moment, you dematerialized without hesitation, and stepped into the dark shadow under your feet.

Faster, faster.

Time and space are warped simultaneously.

The young Fu Heihui hadn't mastered how to use the "field", and the injury further reduced his control over the spell.

This time the passage is only opened by you, without any cooperation at all, rough, turbulent, and ups and downs.

You fight your way through a narrow, creeping path.

Waves of darkness come from all directions, constantly squeezing your body, and your running feet sink into the soft mud unconsciously.

What can't be felt is only suffocating depression and pain.

must go out.

If you don't go out, you will be crushed by teleportation, and then stay in the "spirit world" forever.

As if answering your strong wish.

Sleeping in the shadow of Hui once made you terrified, and some kind of indescribable existence appeared around you again.

The crimson pupils scanned back and forth mechanically, and their dull gaze stayed on the curse pattern of the flower at your temple.

Fingerless palms with jet-black spells on their wrists rise from the swamp to support your feet.

They appear alternately, paving a brand new path for you.

From the end of the darkness, a man's deep voice came faintly:

"It's really surprising that this finger was the first to be fleshed..."

"so?"

"Where's the woman who keeps this finger? Boy from the Chanyuan family, where did you hide her?"

Familiar voices enter your ears in fits and starts, but your brain, smothered in chaos, can't make out the meaning.

With a strong instinct to win, you struggled to reach out your arms from the darkness, hoping that someone could rescue you from this sticky pain.

"Oh, you're here..."

The arm that once opened the door of the telephone booth and handed you clothes for the distressed, now pulls you out of the predicament again.

The humid night wind in midsummer blows away the dark clouds, and the silver-white moon casts a dreamlike brilliance on everything in front of us.

Your feet are able to step on the ground again because of the other party's actions, but you don't have that sense of security in your heart.

——Like a dream.

The sight before you leaves you speechless.
