A Dimensional Journey Begins with the Dragon Clan

However, just when Zenin Naoya was happy, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind him.

It was Zenin Maki's mother who staggered up behind him, a dagger in her hand.

At this moment, her neck was covered in blood, and she seemed to be close to death. But in the end, she seemed to want to kill Zenin Naoya before dying.

"Shit...are you kidding me?"

Zenin Naoya grabbed the ground angrily, trying to get up.

“…I can’t gather my cursed energy!!”

However, at this moment, he couldn't even deal with an ordinary person.

He was extremely unwilling to die at the hands of an ordinary person.

“You bastard…!!”

"what……"

The woman stabbed Zenin Naoya in the back with a knife, muttering something.

"I am very happy to have given birth to you..."

In her fantasy, she seemed to see her two daughters.

  ···········

"Mai-yi!"

On the other side, Zenin Maki had already left the Zenin family with Zenin Mai's body.

Xigong Tao looked at this scene with an extremely ugly expression.

"That's why... I'm... advising you not to come...!!"

"…I'll leave Shinjima to you." Zenin Maki looked at her and put down Zenin Shinjima's body.

Nishimiya Momo held Zenin Mai's body and asked Zenin Maki in a sad tone, "What are your plans for the future, Maki?"

"..."

  ···········

On that day, 6 members of the 'Bing' and 21 members of the 'Gujuliudui' who did not show up at the Zen temple's house died later.

No debris was detected at the scene.

A trace of cursed energy was detected on the wounds on the body, and it is speculated that it came from the cursed tool used in the crime.

Afterwards, the Gojo family and the Kamo family proposed to the General Administration of Jutsu to remove the Zenin family from the three major families.

The Director has reserved the proposal for now.

  ···········

"Kinji Hyō is currently running a black boxing ring in an unused parking lot in Tochigi Prefecture. He is making money by organizing a black boxing match."

the other side.

A forbidden area deep inside the High School of Spells.

Tian Yuan said to everyone.

"Black boxing?" Xuan Hao was slightly stunned when he heard that.

"Let the magicians go to the fighting arena." Tianyuan explained.

"Those guests are..." Fushiguro Megumi felt a little embarrassed when he heard this.

"Basically, they are all non-magicians." Tianyuan continued to explain.

"Isn't this a complete violation of the confidentiality provisions of Article 8 of the Regulations of Jutsu?" asked Megumi Fushiguro.

"There must be a curse master among the participants of the boxing match." Tian Yuan sighed and did not explain, but just reminded, "You must be careful."

  ···········

"Why do you need to change clothes?"

After arriving at the place Tianyuan mentioned, Xuanhao asked Fushiguro Megumi beside him while changing his clothes.

"Senior Kou was suspended from school because he contradicted his superiors," Fushiguro Megumi explained, "and his current behavior is simply ignoring the rules of sorcery. If he finds out that we are connected to the high school, he might run away. It's like the relationship between the police and the thief."

"Ok?"

Xuanhao was a little confused.

"What a strange metaphor? Are we members of the Higher Education Institute now?"

"It should be considered neutral, but in the eyes of Senior Cheng, he will definitely regard us as people from the high school."

"Is he the kind of person who's willing to help?"

"Who knows? What he did was really outrageous. The seniors all said he was a scoundrel. But Otsutsuki said he was stronger than him. With such a strong fighting force, of course we have to recruit him to join the group."

As they were talking, they had already arrived at the parking lot.

"Get out of here, you little bastards. This is not a place for bad boys to gather."

Two burly men guarding the entrance to the parking lot saw the two men coming and stepped forward to stop them.

"If I lose one, two, three, you'll turn around and get out of here. If you dare to do anything else, I'll beat you to death."

"We need money, let's do some underground boxing here." Fushiguro Megumi suggested lightly.

"Huh?" Sun Haoran was a little confused. He had never heard of such a thing before he came.

"call--"

The man didn't respond at all, but swung a punch at Fushiguro Megumi.

Megumi Fushiguro did not dodge, and the fist stopped in front of him.

"Rule one. The boxing match must be kept secret." The man seemed to see that Fushiguro Megumi was not a simple person, and explained the rules, "Tell me who told you that? Then I will decide whether to beat you up or not."

"I don't know that man's name," Fushiguro replied. "Because I killed him."

Of course he was lying.

But it gave the man opposite a slight surprise.

"!!"

"It was about a month ago," Fushiguro Megumi continued, "you had a piece of smug trash here, right?"

"Endo disappeared a month ago..." the man thought to himself when he heard this.

"I'll fill his position, or do you need me to let you perform a somersault in front of your bureau chief?" Fushiguro Megumi said lightly.

"Yes, if we say we want to see their boss right away, it will definitely arouse suspicion." Xuan Hao finally understood Fushiguro Hui's plan, "We can't reveal that we know the name of Scale, so it's better for me to keep quiet."

"Okay." After making a phone call, the other man said, "The boss has approved it. Let them participate in today's qualifying match. However, he will be the one playing in the game."

As he said that, he pointed at Xuanhao.

"?"

Xuan Hao was slightly stunned.

Fushiguro Megumi smiled inwardly: "That's exactly what I want. Xuanhao is more suitable for boxing than me."

"No, I'll do it." But he still said this on the surface.

"The boss said you were too cunning." The man laughed and retorted, "If you don't want to, then go back."

"..."

Fushiguro Megumi was silent for a while after hearing this.

Then he agreed: "Okay, it's settled."

  ···········

"Hey Fushiguro, that was really dangerous just now." After leaving the parking lot, Xuan Hao sighed, "You overacted."

"Maybe not?" Fushiguro Megumi retorted calmly, "After all, there are also curse masters participating in the competition, so there will definitely be times when you and I need to rotate shopping malls. Let's not talk about this for now."

"Well, if they can use surveillance cameras to observe us, it means that Senior Cheng is very likely in that building." Xuanhao nodded slightly. He had noticed the camera at the door just now. "Of course, we can't rule out the possibility of remote control."

"Xuanhao, you go to the game and look for him from the inside." Fushiguro Megumi said, "I will probably sneak into the parking lot at the same time... but I can't say for sure."

"Who knows?" Xuan Hao was a little confused. "They are probably waiting for me to show my hand." Fushiguro Megumi explained, "If my infiltration is exposed, your credit will also be ruined. We will never have a chance to contact Senior Cheng again."

"Then we'll have no choice but to force our way in," Xuan Hao said.

"That's the last resort." Fushiguro Megumi nodded slightly.

"Anyway, we are here to ask Senior Cheng to lend us a hand."

“So we must do our best to avoid situations that will affect future relationships.”

"Some minor conflicts are of course unavoidable."

"To be honest, I don't think I should have taken action tonight. But Tsumiki's return oath is almost valid, and I really don't want to waste time." Fushiguro Megumi said worriedly.

"It is... 10:17 on the 9th..." Xuan Hao looked at the time and said, "There are still days left until the deadline. Because we spent more time on the road than expected. We ran to catch public transportation and fought with cursed spirits on the way."

"So tonight I will also sneak in to look for Senior Cheng, but if the situation goes wrong, I will leave immediately. That's why I said 'I can't say'." Fushiguro Megumi explained.

"I understand." Xuanhao nodded slightly.

  ···········

night.

Xuanhao came to the parking lot and prepared to go to the ring for boxing.

"There are only two rules: 'No escaping' and 'No use of spells'." The burly man during the day explained the rules of the ring to him.

"?"

Xuan Hao was a little confused when he heard this.

"Why? But I don't care whether the other party uses it or not. The technique."

"Most of the customers are not magicians and cannot see the rituals," the man replied. "No matter how intense the competition is, no one will feel excited if they can't see it."

"Then what does 'no escape' mean?" Xuan Hao asked.

"It means 'fight within the guests' visual range'," the man explained.

"You guys really put customers first." Xuanhao complained.

"Of course, this is business." The man said as a matter of course.

"What kind of person is the boss?" Xuan Hao asked.

"Do you care?" the man asked doubtfully.

"Not bad." Xuan Hao said lightly.

"You'll know when you meet him," said the man.

"Can I see him?" Xuan Hao was a little surprised.

"There are two types of competitions." The man did not answer, but explained, "There are 'unscripted' ones like today's elimination match, and 'scripted' ones. The scripts are of course written by the boss. If you perform well tonight, you will most likely be summoned by him."

"In short, just go as big as you can." Xuanhao asked, "It will be much simpler this way."

Soon, following the man's footsteps, Xuan Hao came to a floor with a hollow ceiling. The floor above the ceiling was filled with spectators.

It seems that the floor below is the venue for the game.

“It turns out that the floors were connected, with the spectators upstairs and the games taking place downstairs.” Xuan Hao said with emotion.

"Yes." The man nodded slightly and smiled proudly, "Then that will be your opponent."

As he spoke, he turned to the person coming towards him.

“…I was also shocked when I first saw it.”

"Ah."

Xuanhao laughed and didn't care, "It's just right for attracting customers."

"Dear audience! The exciting Fight Club Elimination Tournament will also start on time tonight!" The host on the side began to heat up the atmosphere, "This match will also be commented on by me, John Bobby!!"

"Without further delay, let me introduce to you two players who are full of fighting spirit tonight!! The unexpected assassin!! The one with one more corner than the triangle is the quadrangle!! The dangerous blazing boy! Xuan-Hao!!"

"When he stands, he's a panda. When he sits, he's a panda. When he walks, he's even more of a panda!! A panda-cat!!"

Xuanhao looked at the panda that came in front of him and laughed.

That's why he was surprised at the appearance of his opponent.

Because this is his senior Panda.

"Everyone! Place your bets! Place your bets!~~"

the host shouted with an excited smile.

"Have you bought it yet? You've bought it and you're done~~~!?"

  ···········

at the same time.

Somewhere in a dim monitoring room.

Cheng Jinci lay on the sofa and sighed.

“…This game doesn’t generate much excitement.”

"Why? Jinci." The woman next to him touched his face and asked curiously.

"Only those who can withstand the test will have 'luck'." Hyūga Kinji explained, "It's no fun to know the winner before the game. There are not many nameless magicians who can beat Panda."

He didn't even bother to check the surveillance camera while he was talking.

"I'm afraid not."

The woman objected, looked at the surveillance camera and smiled.

"Um!?"

Hearing this, Cheng Jinci was slightly stunned and hurriedly looked at the surveillance camera.

On the surveillance screen, a man and a panda were seen fighting fiercely.

“Ahhhh!!?” The host also became excited when watching this scene. “This can definitely be called the most exciting offensive and defensive matchup I have ever seen in my live broadcasting career!! Although I have only been doing this job for half a month~~~~!!”

"Senior Panda, have you met Senior Scale?"

During the fight, Xuan Hao quietly asked the panda, because the panda seemed to have been lurking here for a while before him.

"Not yet." Panda replied quietly, "We are old acquaintances, so he is not wary of me, but he avoids me. The key is that the other third-year magician is very problematic. You didn't reveal your identity as a high school student, did you?"

"Yeah." Xuanhao nodded slightly.

"Very good, very good." The panda nodded with satisfaction. "Do you know what to do next?"

Then he pretended to be knocked away by Xuan Hao's punch.

"Wow!! Why is his fist so hard!!"

"...What exaggerated acting." Xuan Hao was slightly stunned when he saw this scene.

"I can't move! Just wait and see! The animal protection group will not let you go!" The panda fell to the ground and shouted exaggeratedly.

"The winner is!!" The referee also took this opportunity to announce the winner of the match. "Xuan~~~~Hao!!"

"After the elimination round, let Xuan Haodao come up to the rooftop."

On the other side, the man who brought Xuanhao received instructions over the phone.

"What?" The man was slightly stunned when he heard this. "Isn't it a bit too early to say that?"

"He will definitely win." The voice on the phone said firmly.

"And in order to attract the audience upstairs, he deliberately made the movements full of three-dimensionality. I feel that I can write a good script suitable for him. I have said it many times, strike while the iron is hot..."

"That sounds silly, stop saying it." The woman next to Cheng Jinci complained.

She is Xing Qiluo Luo, who is also a third-year student at Jujutsu High School. (End of this chapter)
