Spell Return: The Wheel of Time

Chapter 24 Campus Legend
Doji Kiri Yasutuna is said to be the highest masterpiece created by a famous craftsman named Yasutuna during the Heian period. Later, in the hands of Minamoto no Yorimitsu, he beheaded the ghost king of Oeyama, Shuten Doji, and destroyed him. Therefore, this The handle sword is also called "dōjiri".

The blade of the knife that Shenyuan saw in front of him was slightly longer, more than one meter by visual inspection. The handle was made of black strips, and the blade was roughly round with a hollow in the middle and intricate patterns on it.

The scabbard was made of mahogany, and it had a strange feeling. As soon as Shenyuan took hold of the sword and cut it, he felt the breath of magic from it.

In other words, this is indeed a magic tool. Holding the handle of the knife, Shenyuan slowly pulled out the blade.

Then a cold light jumped out of the room, followed by an even stronger aura of spell power.

It turns out that the scabbard was used to cover its aura, and it seems that the scabbard is not that old. It was probably used by people from the past of the Minamoto family to hide the aura of the Dojikiri.

The blade of the blade shines with cold light, giving people a very dangerous feeling when looking at it. However, there are large and very light dark brown lines on the blade, which looks very disharmonious and weird.

"It is indeed a good spell tool. Are you sure the other party is here for it?"

Gennain recalled for a while and then said: "My grandpa brought me here that day. I wanted to find two books to read, just like reading stories. Unexpectedly, I just saw a fish-man-like monster crawling towards this knife."

"I guess I didn't expect that I could see it, but my attack didn't seem to have much effect. I just remembered this knife, and then I pulled it out and cut a big wound on the fish monster, and then It just ran away..."

Shenyuanyi was thinking in his heart, in fact, this shouldn't be the case. It seems that this Tojikiri has been kept in the scabbard, and its aura is well hidden. It is impossible to find out that it is a cursed tool until you are in front of it.

This is still under the condition that the function of the scabbard will gradually decrease, and this is their family's ancestral home. Almost no one else can enter this room, which means that the visitor learned about the existence of this curse tool from other channels. Just came and tried to steal it.

Shenyuan thought for a while and said: "The enemy comes prepared. I personally suggest that this knife should be kept at home as little as possible. It is best to have Nayin take it with you first, or give it to the school for safekeeping."

"To you, it is just a treasured sword passed down from your ancestors, but now there are curse masters who are eyeing it, and those evil people who have no bottom line can do anything..."

Of course Yuan Zhenghui understood this. To be honest, although he was a little reluctant to part with this ancestral knife, he didn't care so much when it came to the safety of his family. After all, nothing in this room was an ancestral object. There are also a lot of armors and knives, but they are not as famous as Dojichi.

"Yuan Yijun, are you able to deal with that villain hiding in the dark head on?" Yuan Zhenghui asked.

Shenyuan Yi replied nonchalantly: "Based on the current situation, as long as he appears in front of me, I can take his life instantly. Curse masters like this are usually executed."

Gennain on the side exclaimed in a low voice: "Is the conjurer still killing people?"

After thinking about it, Shenyuan decided to explain: "Usually, the curse master only needs to exorcise the cursed spirit. Most of those curse masters can hardly be called human beings. If they indulge all their desires, they will eventually be swallowed by the darkness."

"A curse master I met before used his extraordinary strength to brutally kill several innocent women one after another. The deaths of people like this are just easier for them. What we do can be said to be the curse version of police work. ."

"We are the righteous party!" Yuan Nayin's expression became firm, but Yuan Zhenghui looked at his granddaughter with a slightly loving and uneasy expression.

Shenyuan Yi didn't say much. In fact, the job of a conjurer is not that good. He is better. He can easily solve most curses, and even if it's bad, he can still escape.

More low-level spellcasters are not so lucky. If they encounter a high-level spell spirit, immediate death is a relief, not to mention the numerous tasks.

But she has to slowly adapt to all this. After awakening the spell, it means that you have begun to drift away from ordinary people's lives. Even if you force yourself to return to ordinary people's lives, your essence is still different after all. of.

And curses don't just focus on spellcasters. Even if you become an "ordinary person", you will encounter curses. Just like Minamoto's parents, they knew something about this, but they didn't expect it. My daughter will become one of them.

But thinking on the bright side, there are still some jobs that are not so dangerous. For example, teachers at a spell college have some rear-end work, or they can work hard to become a senior executive in the director's department. Of course, this is just a joke.

Yuan Zhenghui said to Shen Yuanyi: "Mr. Yuan Yi, can you keep this boy's sword temporarily until the curser is found?"

Shenyuan thought for a while and said: "Okay, in this case, there is no need for this scabbard to cover the aura. If that person is still thinking about this knife, I can also use this to fish him out."

"It's just that the defense here is relatively tight. I may not stay here, lest the curse master in the dark dare not take action."

Yuan Zhenghui said with a smile: "No problem, I will arrange for someone to prepare a place for you outside. If you have any requests, Yuan Yijun, you can tell me directly. Nayin's parents are busy and may not see them often." , you can also find Riko."

After that, Shenyuan put the boy cut into a new, ordinary scabbard, and the curse on the sword became more obvious. Even Yuan Nayin felt a little uncomfortable with the sword after staying beside him for a long time. a feeling of.

"I'm going to go out and walk around the area to see if I can find anything."

When Minamoto heard what Kamogenichi said, she quickly said, "I'm going too." Minamoto Masaki couldn't stand her request, so he agreed to let her follow Kamigeichi, but asked Sugihara to follow him.

After leaving the Yuan family's house, the three of them plus Shirolang didn't take a car or anything. They walked around, of course, in a circle. Sugihara just followed the two of them quietly. It would be easy if they didn't look back. Its existence will be ignored.

Gennayin walked away for a while and couldn't help but said: "Genichi-kun, aren't you curious about what my technique is?"

Shenyuanyi asked Bai Lang to pay more attention to whether there was any abnormal curse aura, and replied: "The magician can make his spells public in exchange for restraints to increase the effectiveness of the spells, but there are always some spells. Techniques have an advantage in intelligence, but once they are known to others, they will be at a disadvantage, so I generally do not take the initiative to ask others about their techniques."

After listening to these detailed explanations, Gennai thought for a while and said: "Then my technique seems to be the former. I call it 'spirit body' and I can perform out-of-body experiences! Just like the ghosts in those horror stories Same."

Shenyuan paused, a spell related to the soul?This is indeed very rare. He has never even heard of a similar conjurer. He only vaguely thinks that there is a villain whose magic spell is also related to the soul.

"Do you know your technique well?" Yuan Nayin said with a sad face: "No. I always thought this was just a super power. I never told others and never learned it. knowledge.”

Shenyuan nodded: "It doesn't matter. If you can enroll in school by then, someone will teach you." Then Yuan Nayin curiously asked something about the Conjuration College.

"Panda! Is it a real panda?"

"No, it's just the appearance of a panda. It's taller than me, walks upright and can talk."

Gennayin immediately became very curious about the panda he had never met before. That was a panda, how cute it was.

After walking for a while, Bai Lang didn't find anything unusual. They also walked to a nearby river. There was a breeze blowing while walking by the river, which was really cool.

"Genichi-kun, if there are things that look like supernatural events, are they all caused by curses?"

Kamogen, who was communicating with Gojo Satoru on the line, turned his head and looked at Gennain when he heard this: "Have you encountered other curses?"

Gennain waved her hands quickly: "It's not me, it's a friend of mine at school. She seems to be in a bad mental state recently. When I asked her, she hesitated, and she seemed to be afraid of something."

Shenyuan thought for a while and said: "It is possible that some urban legends or campus legends may give birth to some curses. Your friend may have encountered something similar, but she has not been affected yet. Any physical injuries? Are there any rumors of anyone dying in your school? It's the kind that's very bizarre."

After hearing this, Gennai thought for a while, and then said with some uncertainty: "There are some horror legends. Don't schools usually have similar legends like this? But I don't know much about bizarre deaths. stuff, but I know someone at school who knows a lot about it.”

Kangenichi looked at Gennain and asked, "Are you worried about that classmate of yours?"

Gennain looked at the gurgling river: "Yes, Ayako doesn't have many friends. I may be one of her few friends. If I don't care about her, maybe no one else will care about her."

Shenyuan typed a string of words on the phone screen with one hand and sent it to Gojo Satoru opposite, and then said to Gennain: "Then let's go to your school and have a look. If there is a curse, it will be removed. .”

A bright smile appeared on Gennai's face: "Thank you so much, Genichi-kun. Genichi-kun is such a righteous partner. Of course, so am I!"

Shenyuan looked at Gennain with a somewhat incomprehensible expression: "Oh no, she is a middle school girl. She doesn't imagine that she is a magical girl or something."

In fact, he said that he wanted to go to the school to detect whether there is a curse. If there is a curse, after encountering the enemy, it will also be an opportunity for the curse master who may be in the dark. If not, you can also try Doji Kiri. Function, where does a curse master who manipulates shikigami get the existence of this curse tool? I feel that it is not that simple.
"I said, don't you need to go to school?"

"Ah? Of course I'm asking for leave. The principal and my father are quite familiar with each other, and my grades are very good. It won't be a problem if I don't go for a few days."

As the two people's voices grew farther and farther away, the only sound left was the lonely sound of endless water flowing by the river. When the group of people disappeared, a ripple suddenly appeared on the gentle river, and then a person The man with a gloomy face rose half of his body from the water. He looked at the direction in which Shenyuan and the others were leaving, with a troubled look on his face.

"Damn it, why did a conjurer get involved? The knife is still on that kid's body. We have to test that kid. If we kill them and take away the knife then, Master Xia You's mission will be terrible. Don’t give up halfway”

The man's body gradually submerged into the river again. When he looked again, there was only the clear flowing river water and the fish in it. There was no human figure anywhere.

When we arrived at Gennai's school, we saw at first glance that it was a high-end private school, probably a school for aristocrats. Originally, a stranger like Genichi Kami couldn't enter with a large dog, but I don’t know how Sugihara went to negotiate, but Shenyuan Yi was released without any hindrance, but the white wolf had to be stored at the guard.

After explaining to Bai Lang, Shenyuan entered the school gate carrying the boy Kiribei and Gennain who were packed in the piano case. It happened to be lunch break at this time, and many boys and girls came and went in the school. Unexpectedly, he saw Gennai. Almost everyone will say hello to her, and many people are familiar with her, regardless of gender.

"You are very popular in school." Shen Yuanyi looked at several girls who were accompanying Yuan Nayin and hugged each other affectionately and whispered some words, and then looked at the two of them with a wicked smile at Yuan Nayin's embarrassment in the end. was driven away.

Gennain came back to his senses and expressed doubts: "Genichi-kun must be very popular in the school, or should he only go to that school all the time."

Shenyuan put his hands in his pockets and thought about the people he beat up in middle school and the female classmates who were greedy for his body, and then said: "Half and half."

"Where's the classmate you mentioned who knows a lot of campus rumors? I need to go see the person involved later."

Gennain thought for a moment and said, "He should be in the club now. He joined that or something. Supernatural Club. He usually likes to talk about ghost stories and school gossip."

Under the guidance of Yuan Nain, the two came to the club activity room of the Supernatural Club. It was not big, just a small room. When they walked to the door, they could hear a low voice inside saying something vividly.

"bang bang"

Gennaon knocked on the door and then opened it: "Keisuke."

The sound in the room was interrupted. The young man wearing a school uniform with a cropped hair turned around, looked at Gen Naine who called him and said in surprise: "Naine, you are back to school!"

There were two men and one woman sitting in the room. They were all listening to the rumors told by the young man named Keisuke. Then when they saw Gennain coming in, they all greeted her with a smile and chatted. Afterwards, Minamoto Nain also introduced Shen Yuanyi to the curious people, but of course he was also reserved.

"So, you want to know if there were any bizarre incidents in the school before, or even someone died because of it?" Keisuke thought about it seriously, and after a while he raised his head: "It seems that there were some."

"You have all heard the legends in school, about the piano in the classroom, the mannequins, and Miss Hanako in every school. But one of them is very unusual, and that is No. 13 steps on the stairs. legend."
