Not long after, Genichi also received the official rating of a first-grade sorcerer and a huge reward for the battle of the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons.
But for Genichi, who had a place to live, food to eat, and no bad habits, it was just a number. He treats Panda and the others to a big meal, and Genichi plans to use the remaining money to find a cursed tool or shikigami that could carry weapons.
Otherwise, his three swords are indeed difficult to carry, and when put in the musical instrument case, they would be more than half a person's height. However, this kind of thing is quite difficult to find, and there is no news for the time being.
After Yuta and Rika lifted the curse, his rating dropped from special grade to fourth grade. He will have to work hard to get it up from there. But it seems that this won't be a problem for him. It's just a matter of time. Everyone is optimistic about him always.
During this period, Genichi also asked Gojo Satoru about the evaluation criteria for special grades. The answer he got was that there were no unified conditions, but all special grades had one thing in common: they were unusually powerful.
"Can I be rated as a special grade now?"
Hearing Genichi's question, Gojo Satoru replied casually: "Actually, the higher-ups also have this idea, but first of all, they haven't directly felt your strength yet, and the curse of that special-grade cursed spirit Shuten-doji is also unknown to us."
"So it's just a suggestion, but more importantly..."
Genichi understood immediately: "It's because I was included in your sphere of influence, Gojo-sensei."
"Bingo! If you are also rated as a special-grade sorcerer, then in their eyes, I have three special-grade sorcerers, including Yuta, before me. However, if you were to publicize your own technique, you should be able to confirm the title of special grade."
"I didn't have time to talk before. By the way, did you realize the use of the [Reverse Cursed Technique] during the battle with that Shuten-doji?"
Genichi was waiting for this sentence. Upon hearing it, he revealed a smug smile: "Haha, Gojo-sensei, I suddenly understood the true meaning of the [Reverse Cursed Technique] when I was in a desperate situation. After that, the burden-free [Reverse Cursed Technique] allowed me to ignore the damage from the enemy's domain. Now I am so strong that I don't even know how strong I am, haha!"
Gojo Satoru showed an interested look: "You look very energetic. Then come and have a sparring match with me, your precious sensei."
Genichi readily agreed and even brought the three cursed swords with him when Gojo Satoru raised his eyebrows. The former smiled and said, "Teacher, it will be okay. Even if you get hurt, you can still use the [Reverse Cursed Technique]."
Gojo Satoru stood up and walked out of the room, smiling and saying, "Then you have to work hard. If it doesn't work, I can give you some slack."
The two of them exchanged childish trash talk as they walked towards the largest training ground in the technical high school. Maki, Panda, and the others were out on a mission, and the only ones watching were Principal Yaga and White Wolf. On the one hand, Principal Yaga was called in to maintain the barrier of the venue to prevent it from being turned into ruins in a few seconds.
In fact, it was just to inform him that the fluctuations in the battle might cause Yaga Masamichi to misunderstand. When Yaga Masamichi heard that Gojo Satoru would fight with Genichi, he became interested and watched the battle.
Genichi took off his coat and only wore a white shirt with black bottoms. His hair, which had grown a little longer, was tied behind his head. He held the Dojigiri and Onikirimaru in his left and right hands, respectively, and the Hizamaru was hanging at his waist.
Gojo Satoru, standing opposite, also removed his blindfold, revealing his bright eyes, and began moving his body while standing there.
"Teacher, open"
Genichi's words were still floating in the air when a large cloud of dust exploded behind Gojo Satoru and a neat, deep mark spread from the ground behind him.
Keeping his hand stretched forward, Gojo Satoru looked to the left and saw Genichi. His eyes lit up: "Oh, Genichi, you didn't even use the technique just now?"
Genichi's speed was so fast just now that Principal Yaga, watching the fight from the side, didn't even react in time and only saw a blurry afterimage. However, Gojo Satoru still locked onto Genichi's slash with his six eyes and blocked it.
"This sword is quite effective against the cursed defense."
Although the attack just now failed to break the [Infinity] as expected, it still evoked some memories of Gojo Satoru. If an ordinary sorcerer or cursed spirit tried to withstand that sword, his defense would probably be broken by one blow, and the victory or defeat, life or death, would be clear at that time.
This kid didn't use any spells.
"Genichi, your technique [Wheel of Time: Reverse] can even reverse fatal injuries, right?"
Genichi immediately understood what Gojo Satoru meant. His hand gripping the hilt of the knife loosened and then tightened again, and an amazing fighting spirit burned in his eyes.
"Yes, Gojo-sensei, come on, I will do my best too."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gojo Satoru's figure on the opposite side disappeared. Genichi only felt the touch of wind flowing behind him and even heard the sound of clothes tearing.
"So fast! It's teleportation achieved by cursed energy."
But Genichi finally reacted. With his sense of time fully activated, everything around him slowed down like a slow-motion movie. When he activated the spell, this slow-motion world was paused again.
Genichi, who was walking away, turned around and saw Gojo Satoru reaching out to stab at the place where his left rib was originally. If this were to happen, he would probably be stabbed in the back.
Genichi, who was silently complaining, raised his two swords in an interlaced manner. As his postures rose and fell, he took a long breath. Then, the sword light suddenly appeared, like the moon setting through the clouds.
Countless weaved sword lights submerged Gojo Satoru. Genichi was squandering his cursed energy madly, reversing and reversing the cuts left by the three cursed swords, almost filling up the entire space.
Not until he had almost reached his acceleration limit did Genichi release the technique. Then, countless sword sounds merged together. The strange hissing sound caused the stagnant sword light to come alive, and in an instant, it tore the space into pieces.
But at the same time, Genichi, who had just released the technique, felt an extremely majestic force repelling and pushing him backward. The sword lights in the sky shattered in the air like colored glass. In Genichi's eyes, the surrounding ground seemed to be pressed down by an invisible hydraulic press. It sank instantly, and no speck of dust, dirt, or rocks flew up.
Genichi, who had just activated the technique and entered the [Infinity] state, felt a pain in his abdomen. He lowered his head and saw that there was a fist-sized hole in his left abdomen. Unable to accelerate further, Genichi could only choose to exit the [Infinity] state to recover from the wound.
Without using the [Reverse Cursed Technique], Genichi was still a little slow. Then, using [Wheel of Time: Reverse], with just a jump off the screen, the horrific wound on his abdomen disappeared, and even the clothes that were pierced were restored to their original state.
However, at this very moment, Gojo Satoru's next attack came. It was also an attack without a process. However, Gojo Satoru used the technique to pull himself towards the target, and even fragile objects that he hit on the way might be smashed to pieces on the spot.
This speed was beyond the reach of a body strengthened by cursed energy. In the gap, when Genichi lifted the technique and then used the reverse technique to "brush" away the wound, Gojo Satoru appeared in front of Genichi. His eyes seemed unfocused but locked in his direction.
The cursed energy shining from the fist that had landed on Genichi was terrifying. It could be seen that Gojo Satoru hardly held back with this punch because just this one blow almost broke Genichi's right chest and shoulder.
The shattered flesh and flying blood seemed to be just an illusion. Genichi appeared behind Gojo Satoru. When Gojo Satoru disappeared on the spot, Genichi, who was one step faster, successfully launched the technique.
Since these three cursed swords could not hurt Gojo Satoru, Genichi gave up this idea and stuck the three swords into the ground. Then he clenched his fists, and with astonishing cursed power rising from them, he smashed towards Gojo Satoru, who had instantly reached the other side.
After finding it was still futile, Genichi stood still. A translucent ball condensed on his raised fingertips, which was then torn into a line in the air, with the other end connected to Gojo Satoru.
The game then became a turn-based game. Genichi tried every way to change the way of attack, and the moment he released the technique, it was Gojo Satoru's turn.
Except for Blue, Red, and Purple, which Genichi had tried to tank. He couldn't break Gojo Sensei's defense, but Gojo Satoru's attacks on Genichi were like flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water. In the end, Genichi still looked unharmed.
"How do you break my technique?"
Gojo Satoru smiled casually and said, "Then you should master the domain expansion first."
Genichi, somewhat discouraged upon hearing this, said helplessly: "After the battle with Shuten-doji, I tried to explore the direction of the domain expansion, but I had no clue. I also tried to start from the aspect of barrier technique, but still got no results."
Gojo Satoru continued, "Don't be so impatient. It's only been a while, and sometimes the expansion of a domain only requires an epiphany on your part. How about this? I'll just let you experience my domain briefly."
"ah?"
Just as Genichi was thinking about the effect of Gojo Satoru's domain, he heard Ye Mo Zhengdao shouting: "Satoru, don't mess around!"
Gojo Satoru said easily: "Don't worry, I can control it in a short time."
Then he raised his fingers, crossed his middle finger and index finger, and a ray of light spread out from Gojo Satoru as the center, and it was released and retracted in just an instant before it was released.
"[Domain Expansion: Unlimited Void]."
Genichi, who wanted to use the spell to see if he could escape, suddenly changed his mind. Since Gojo-sensei could control the power, it seemed possible to try it.
So, with just a thought, Genichi was hit by Gojo Satoru's domain expansion where he was. Even in this extremely short moment, Genichi still fell into a strange state. Endless useless information entered his brain regardless of whether Genichi wanted it or not.
He could sense everything around him, but he couldn't move at all. The feeling that his body and consciousness were separated into two parts was extremely uncomfortable. The endless information pouring in was very similar to the feeling of Genichi's mind running at high speed and detached from the passage of time in the material world.
He couldn't activate the technique. Genichi couldn't even control his eyelids to blink. He felt that he was spending a long time mentally, but his instinct told him: one second, two seconds passed.
When he came out of this state and regained control of his body, he saw Gojo Satoru with a smile on his face and Yaga Masamichi, who looked a little concerned. He casually used [Wheel of Time: Reverse] to refresh himself, and Genichi recalled the feeling just now.
Gojo Satoru smiled and said, "How was it? I lasted less than a second just now."
"How can you use this kind of trick on your students!" Gojo Satoru, who dodged the iron fist of Yaga Masamichi, yelled.
Here, Genichi compared Shuten-doji's domain with Gojo Sensei's domain in his mind. When facing that kind of direct damage type of domain expansion, Genichi almost regarded it as nothing. Still, when facing this type of domain, it seemed that Genichi could only stay away from it as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if he was hit.
"Simple domain can counter domain expansion."
Seeing Genichi still in deep thought, Gojo Satoru, who had dodged over, grabbed him and said, "Everything will come naturally, everything will come naturally. Don't be obsessed with it, Genichi. Go on a mission, and there is something else I want you to do."
Genichi, who was pulled back, asked with a look of disgust: "What's the matter? Every time you say this, it seems unreliable."
"No? This time it's Megumi's business. The number of students for the next class hasn't been determined yet, so I decided to let Megumi prepare for enrollment first. You haven't been back for a while, so it's a good time to go back and take a look."
"Well, I keep in touch with them often and send a lot of things back to them."
Genichi said with ridicule but still consented to Gojo Satoru's arrangement. Every time they had a video or something, it was basically him and Tsumiki talking.
Except for the fact that his mouth was moving, that kid Megumi looked the same as in the photo. This time, he would go back and fight him in person to see if he could still keep that poker face.
"Hehehe, who told you that you were not interested in the jujutsu world? Let's see what you can do to fight back?"
"Genichi, your smile is very strange."
"Do you understand the joke?"
