'How is that possible?' Mei's single visible red eye widened in disbelief. 'He took out those curse spirits so easily?'
Those wolf shaped curse spirits were at least Level 2, and even she might not have dealt with them so smoothly. Yet Yuto had sliced through them like they were nothing, casually wiping out dozens in mere moments.
"Yuto, we need to get out of here! Something's wrong!" Mei's voice quivered, her legs trembling. The situation had clearly spiraled beyond their intel. Not only were there multiple Level 2 curse spirits, but their numbers far exceeded expectations. 'Something is off, the Level 2 curse spirit must have mutated!'
"Yuto, the intel's wrong. That Level 2 curse spirit's probably mutated. We can't handle this. Let's go!"
But in that instant, a chill ran through her, her hair standing on end. Unbeknownst to her, a white hand had silently settled on her shoulder. It moved like lightning, its owner poised to snap her neck. Just as it was about to struck, a dazzling silver light crashed down like an avalanche, severing the arm in a flash.
"Who gave you permission to touch my people?" Yuto's voice was ice-cold as he wrapped an arm around Mei's waist, yanking her to safety.
"Human, you're strong," the curse spirit sneered. It was tall and muscular, its milky-white skin covered in twisted black runes. Three gaping mouths and four claw-patterned eyes adorned its grotesque face. The arm Yuto had severed with the Sword of Promised Victory oozed black blood, but it quickly squirmed back into place.
Holding the silent Mei, Yuto's eyes narrowed. "That regeneration… You're a Special Grade curse spirit?"
"Bingo! But no prize for guessing," the curse spirit cackled, waving its arm. "You killed my children, so I'll kill you here to avenge them. Domain Expansion: Death's Offspring!"
...…..
Meanwhile, atop a nearby skyscraper, a tall woman in a red and white miko outfit, her face marked by a fearsome scar, stared at the spreading black domain with a furrowed brow. "The curtain in Sector 24's has been breached! Someone's unleashed a domain!"
"Teacher Iori, we've sent a distress signal for Sector 24. The Demon Extermination Bureau is dispatching reinforcements," said a woman in a suit, her blue hair cascading to her waist, as she lowered her phone.
"This is bad. Tokyo's facing its first Special Grade curse spirit and it's even stronger than the one in Kyoto," Iori Utahime said, her calm facade masking her urgency. With anomalies resurging, hiding the truth from the public was growing harder. The higher-ups had even transferred curse masters from Kyoto Prefectural Jujutsu High School to Tokyo to prevent disaster in the capital. But now, the worst has come to pass.
"Where's Gojo? Get him here!" Utahime snapped.
"I can't reach him. His phone's not connecting for some reason," Miwa Kasumu replied, frowning at the static on the line.
"Damn it!" Utahime cursed. 'Where's Gojo when we need him?'
"What do we do, Teacher?" Miwa asked, her heart pounding as the black domain swelled like a tide.
"We wait for backup. We can't rush in," Utahime said, her voice tight with frustration. As a teacher, she couldn't risk her student's life against a Special Grade curse spirit.
But just as they braced themselves to wait, two grotesque, flesh-colored tentacles shot from the black tide, dragging them into the inky abyss.
...…..
Inside the domain, the scenery warped. Towering apartment buildings loomed, linked by a maze of pipes—some weaving between structures, others clinging to walls, some jutting out like spears. The distant rumble of combat reverberated through the air.
Miwa slashed the tentacles binding her with her katana, landing beside Utahime with grace. Together, they turned to see two unfamiliar figures locked in a ferocious duel.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The clash was relentless, strikes blurring into a storm. Waves of magical energy clashed with curse energy, bathing the area in blinding light. Their speed was so ferocious that even their outlines were indistinct.
Yuto and the Special Grade curse spirit were cocooned in a blaze of light, their battle too swift for the naked eye to track.
"How did you get in here?" A small figure wrapped in silver light approached, startling Miwa and Utahime.
