Chapter 99 - Suguru Geto Wins Big

"Reinforcements will take another hour. Understood. Notify them to hurry as fast as possible."

Snap.

Masamichi Yaga hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and returned inside Jujutsu High.

All the staff at Jujutsu High were gathered there at this moment.

There were chefs who had been enjoying a leisurely life since Heroic Spirit Emiya's arrival, Jujutsu Sorcerers responsible for maintaining the barriers, and even ordinary people from prominent families who lacked talent.

These ordinary people usually handled odd jobs at Jujutsu High, such as cleaning and restocking vending machines.

However, they never expected that the secure job they had worked so hard to secure would turn out to be so dangerous.

First, the Jujutsu Sorcerers maintaining the barrier operations discovered a large number of Cursed Spirits suddenly appearing within Jujutsu High.

Once it was confirmed they were all low-level Cursed Spirits like Fly Heads, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But the subsequent developments increasingly exceeded their expectations.

First, the barrier of Jujutsu High was breached from the outside.

Then, a large number of powerful Cursed Spirits suddenly surged within Jujutsu High.

These were not the weak Fly Heads that even Assistant Supervisors could easily handle.

These were powerful Cursed Spirits with Cursed Energy readings generally above Grade 1.

There were even multiple Special Grade readings among them.

"Are those Curse Users trying to start a war with the Jujutsu World!"

When such a massive force appeared inside the Jujutsu High barrier, Masamichi Yaga finally realized something was seriously wrong.

Initially, he thought it was a bit strange for two Special Grade Cursed Spirits to appear simultaneously, and for the higher-ups to designate Eiji, Altoria, and Heroic Spirit Emiya to exorcise them.

But such a situation could still happen naturally.

However, now, while Jujutsu High's combat power was dispersed, and just after Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto had brought the Star Plasma Vessel back to Jujutsu High.

When this immense power, which even The Three Great Families would treat with caution, and the consequences of which would be unimaginable if mishandled, appeared within the Jujutsu High barrier, Masamichi Yaga finally grasped the severity of the situation.

Masamichi Yaga recalled a sentence from the intelligence gathered on the Curse User group Q.

A Curse User group aiming to make Master Tengen go berserk and thereby overturn the current Jujutsu World.

Q had been dismantled, so it couldn't be Q.

This meant other Curse Users were acting in the shadows, and Q was merely a face-up card played by the enemy.

A lure to divert attention.

This unknown Curse User group truly intended to overturn the Jujutsu World!

"Are you alright, Teacher?"

Shoko Ieiri's voice came from behind Masamichi Yaga.

Masamichi Yaga's tightly furrowed brow eased slightly.

"Don't worry, Shoko. The news just came in that Eiji and Altoria have already returned, and reinforcements from Jujutsu Headquarters will be here soon."

Curse Users attacking Jujutsu High with multiple Special Grade Cursed Spirits.

Whether Kenjaku was merely trying to intercept Eiji, or the higher-ups in the Jujutsu World even believed the Curse Users intended to kill the Star Plasma Vessel and then attack Master Tengen.

This incident was significant, potentially impacting the existing structure of the Jujutsu World, so The Three Great Families reacted with uncharacteristic unity.

Not only Jujutsu Sorcerers belonging to Jujutsu Headquarters but also elites from The Three Great Families were dispatched to reinforce them.

"Yes, you too, Teacher."

Shoko Ieiri gave Masamichi Yaga a reassuring smile.

"Those three are the strongest, don't worry."

As she spoke, Shoko Ieiri gently massaged Masamichi Yaga's tense face.

"Yes, those three are the strongest."

A slight smile finally appeared on Masamichi Yaga's face.

On the battlefield, Eiji and the others did not disappoint Masamichi Yaga and Shoko Ieiri.

Suguru Geto, who had subdued the Taotie, joined Heroic Spirit Emiya in the encirclement of the Special Grade Cursed Spirit, Bone Woman.

After the Jorōgumo was exorcised, Bone Woman was already struggling to stand alone. Its bones continuously grew, only to be broken by Eiji and Altoria.

With the arrival of Suguru Geto and Heroic Spirit Emiya, it was pushed to the brink of death within a few more rounds, and Suguru Geto successfully subdued it.

Finally, there was Orochi.

Initially, Eiji did not join the battlefield with Mahoraga and Orochi because he knew he would only be a burden to Mahoraga.

As a proper summoner, Eiji's close-combat abilities were not weak with the help of Suguru Geto, Satoru Gojo, and Toji Fushiguro, but Eiji did not prioritize physical combat as much as his Cursed Technique.

Therefore, Eiji's physical combat skills were not top-tier.

After all, compared to researching physical combat, Eiji preferred researching the mysterious Cursed Techniques.

Therefore, Eiji was self-aware enough to know that his physical combat skills would be sufficient against that cursed womb, Dai-ten.

But to fight a monster that could fight Mahoraga to a standstill in a short time?

Forget it, he wouldn't be a burden.

So Eiji decided to cooperate with Altoria to exorcise the Bone Woman first.

Then he would have Altoria unleash her "Curry Stick" on that Orochi.

Since Orochi was similar to Mahoraga, the best method was to instantly kill it with the "Curry Stick."

However, Suguru Geto's arrival made him change his mind.

After notifying Mahoraga to pause its assault, the group completed their encirclement of Orochi.

An arrow silently struck Orochi's torso.

On one hand, compared to Mahoraga in front of them, this arrow was too insignificant.

On the other hand, the current Orochi no longer had the capacity to observe the entire battlefield.

"Imaginary Destruction."

Boom.

A massive explosion erupted on Orochi's torso.

Several snake heads at the center of the explosion were directly blown off at the root.

Mahoraga sheathed its Demon-Slaying Sword, grabbed Orochi's heads with its large hands, and violently tore them off.

Eiji and Altoria weren't idle either; they stood on either side, severing Orochi's snake tails one by one.

"I need to get a new cursed tool. This time, I'll at least get a suitable Special Grade cursed tool."

Looking at the nicked Tang Dao in his hand, Eiji threw it into his shadow and continued attacking with his fists wrapped in lightning.

Soon, the battlefield was littered with the dissipating remains of Orochi.

Orochi, with only its torso left, writhed powerlessly. Having lost its ability to resist, it quickly turned into a Cursed Spirit Jade in Suguru Geto's hand.

"Eiji, I need an explanation."

After subduing Orochi, Suguru Geto looked at Eiji with a serious expression.

"Don't worry, Riko Amanai is fine. I'll explain everything with Gojo later."

Seeing Suguru Geto's stern gaze, Eiji knew he was genuinely angry and immediately gave a French salute.

"I understand. I'll go find Gojo now. Remember to explain clearly later."

After leaving Kurokoshi-gu, Suguru Geto had sensed the continuous bursts of cursed energy from this direction.

He then rushed to the battlefield immediately, as he hadn't had time to check on Satoru Gojo's situation.

Seeing Suguru Geto unharmed, Eiji recalled the message Medea had sent before leaving.

He had been fighting desperately against Kenjaku at the time and hadn't had time to think carefully.

Recalling it now, he felt like Suguru Geto had gotten lucky this time.

Satoru Gojo had been beaten to the brink of death by Toji Fushiguro, and he himself had gone all out to clash head-on with Kenjaku.

Suguru Geto had followed behind and picked up three Special Grade Cursed Spirits.

Whatever, I'll go check on Satoru Gojo first.

However, what they didn't know was that Satoru Gojo had already left Jujutsu High before their battle had even ended.
