Spell Return: The Wheel of Time

Chapter 290 Riko Tenten
"Isn't this too weak?"

Looking at the scattered crowd in front of him, Gojo Satoru complained in a disappointed tone, while Ieiri Shoko, who had no chance to take any action, rolled her eyes at him.

In fact, these curse masters, who seemed to be called something, were not weak. Their leader was almost at the level of the first level, and was considered a rather troublesome bunch.

But what kind of trouble was this for Gojo Satoru? Having mastered the reversal technique, he could perform it continuously. Those guys didn't even touch Gojo Satoru's hair when they attacked him.

The latter also subdued those guys who wanted to kill their targets in an almost playful manner. The two sides were not equal in the same dimension at all.

"Whoo~"

The sound of whistling wind came from the sky. The explosion caused by those guys earlier had been defined as a natural gas explosion. Most of the people nearby had been dispersed. Xia Youjie, who had saved the "Star Plasma", fell to the ground on a flying cursed spirit.

"That's her?"

The two men looked at the young girl that Geto Suguru was holding. It seemed that she was about the same age as them, or even younger. She was at the perfect age to enjoy the wonderful campus life and youth.

But then she will be sent to a technical high school to complete her assimilation with Lord Tianyuan, and from then on this person will no longer exist.

"Tennoko's parents died in an accident when she was four years old. Since then, she has been taken care of by the Kuroi family, who have served the Star Plasma for generations."

Ieiri Shoko read the information expressionlessly. Apart from her identity as an astral plasma body, there was nothing special about this child. In the words of Kuroi Misato, who was in charge of the astral plasma body of this generation in the Kuroi family, she was just an ordinary, lively and cheerful Tokyo female student.

Now she is in a coma due to the previous attack, but it's not serious. Just in case, Glass treated her with a reversal technique.

"What's next?"

"Let's wait until she wakes up."

The three of them talked at once, but in fact it was mainly Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru, who discussed the next plan. Then they contacted Kuroi Misato, who was separated from Tenriko because of the attack.

Afterwards, he took the astral body, Tennuriko, to a place where he and Kuroi Misato lived, a warm place that looked no different from an ordinary family.

"Riko..."

As Tenriko's guardian since she was a child, although Kuroi Misato looks quite young and seems to be not much different from the former, she is actually in her early thirties now.

To some extent, it was okay to regard her as a family member of Tenriko, no matter how they treated each other. This was also the reason why she was so anxious when she saw Tenriko unconscious and didn't know her safety.

"Ms. Kuroi, she's fine now. My companions have treated her. The reason she hasn't woken up yet is because she's still in a self-protection mechanism similar to deep sleep."

"Oh, isn't he about to wake up?"

After Geto Suguru's explanation, Kuroi Misato looked relieved. As a family that has served the Star Plasma for generations, there is no doubt that she naturally has some understanding of the world of sorcery.

Although she didn't know the specific identities of Gojo Satoru and the others, the news she received was that the person who came to escort Tenriko was one of the top sorcerers today, and she was absolutely safe and worry-free.

At the moment it seems to be true. She hasn't even figured out what happened to those attackers, but they were all dealt with. Riko also seemed to be unharmed, at least on the outside. Only after seeing Riko wake up did she feel truly relieved.

"This is……"

Vague thoughts awoke in Tenriko's consciousness, her memory still stuck on a group of dangerous-looking guys breaking into her home, and then she fainted from their sudden attack.

So now... I've been kidnapped?

When this thought popped into Riko's mind, she suddenly opened her eyes. What came into view was a somewhat familiar ceiling, but her attention was not on it at the moment. Instead, her gaze was fixed on two unfamiliar faces.

"Drink! Ah!"

Without much thought, the martial arts she learned from Kuroi Misato came in handy at this moment. Tennen Riko used a push palm and a straight punch to hit the two guys who looked like they were not good people.

One of them had eccentric white hair, the other had weird bangs and smiled with some ill intentions. These guys were so bold as to kidnap her. Did they really think that Riko was a weak woman?
With full of anger, Riko hit the "bangs" with one palm, but her other punch failed to hit the white-haired guy, but strangely stayed in front of the other party.

"You guy!"

Xia Youjie covered his chin, not because he was hurt much by Tenriko, but because he was caught off guard and his jaw joint was hit.

To be honest, this cannot be blamed on him, he has always been at the top of the class in close combat courses, and in normal battles, with Tenriko's level, the opponent would not be able to hit him even at such a close distance as just now.

But who could have imagined that the target of his protection, an ordinary-looking youthful girl, would, after being rescued, have the first reaction to deliver a heavy blow to the person in front of him?

"Hahaha! Jay..."

Gojo Satoru's technique helped him block Riko's "attack", and then he didn't care about being "hit", but laughed at Geto Suguru who was hit by Shinchi. ...

"I'm so sorry!"

After finding out the whole story and having Glass checked again to find out there was nothing wrong, Tenriko was very embarrassed. Of course, she didn't show it completely. After all, this act of "hurting" her savior seemed... indeed a bit stupid.

After the sincere apology, Geto Suguru didn't do anything about it. His ugly expression now was mostly due to Gojo Satoru's ridicule of his poor image.

If it weren't for the mission that was most important, he would have wanted to have another routine sparring match with Gojo Satoru here. Ieiri Nozomi, who was standing by, couldn't stand the childish behavior between the two of them, so she immediately spoke up to bring the topic back on track.

"After we dealt with the first wave of enemies, did the teacher or the Directorate give us instructions on what to do next? Or should we send her to the technical college right now?"

Gojo Satoru stopped laughing at Geto Suguru, took out his cell phone, flipped through it, and found the message they needed now.

"We must...we must try our best to satisfy the requirements of the Astral Plasma, that is, Miss Tenriko?"

"what?"

Glancing at Geto's surprised face, Naturo yawned, "This should be a special treatment for the Astral Plasma Body. After all, she will never have this opportunity again after she assimilated with Master Tengen."

Everyone was silent and assimilated... The reality behind this was far from being as harmonious and harmless as its name suggested. In reality, this assimilation was almost equivalent to death.

"Hum..."

Tennen Riko jumped up and put her hands on her hips, looking at Gojo Satoru and the others with disdain: "What shallow thoughts! You are truly mortals... Listen carefully!"

Tennari stood on the solid wood table in the middle of the living room and looked down at the confused trio, her face full of confidence and seriousness: "I am Tengen-sama, and Tengen-sama is me! How can the so-called assimilation be so simply equated with death? When I became a part of Tengen-sama, Tengen-sama also became me!"

After saying that, she opened her eyes a little and glanced at Gojo Satoru and the others, then she saw that the three of them had turned their heads away to chat, and she didn't know whether they had heard everything she had said.

"Tsk tsk, I really don't understand the young people nowadays. Their ideas are so trendy. But this way, I don't have to feel guilty anymore."

"Heh, don't make it sound like you're too old. Besides, isn't she at the age of 'middle school', as Genichi-sensei would say?"

Tenriko was furious: "Damn it, did you listen to me?"

Now that we have confirmed some of Tenriko's thoughts, regardless of whether they are sincere or not, or whether there are thoughts in her heart that she herself is not aware of, the mission still needs to be carried out.

Xia Youjie's next words diverted Tenriko's attention: "Is there anything else you want to do? The assimilation ceremony does not start immediately."

Tenriko seemed to remember something after hearing what Geto Suguru said. Although she didn't have any family except Kuroi Misato, she still had friends and teachers at school. Since she was about to say goodbye to the secular world, she might as well go and say goodbye...

Gojo Satoru and his friends had no objection to this, but Tennenoriko, probably wanting to prevent Gojo Satoru, who had an extremely outstanding appearance, from interfering with anything, asked them not to follow her to the classroom.

So Geto Suguru released a few cursed spirits in the school for early warning. Anyway, ordinary people couldn't see these things, and once they were destroyed, it meant that a curse master had infiltrated the school. At that time, Gojo Satoru's technique would allow him to arrive at the scene as soon as possible.

Even if they were a little bit late, Nozomi's reversal technique could ensure that most of the injuries would not threaten Tennariko's life.

In this way, Tenriko said her final goodbye to her friends. The reason was very simple, it was nothing more than a lie about transferring to another school. However, if necessary, this lie could also be turned into an absolutely true fact.

What happened afterwards was exactly as Gojo Satoru and the others had expected. There were still other scattered curse masters who wanted to claim the huge bounty, but this was not a big deal for them.

Gojo Satoru didn't even use He, and Geto Suguru was too lazy to summon any special-grade curse spirits, so the few of them dealt with the group of curse masters.

"now what?"

Several people looked at each other. Tenno Riko had basically finished saying goodbye to her friends, and now they were stunned and didn't know what to do next. The assimilation ceremony would probably take a few days. Did they have to send her to the Hongxing Palace that was like a tomb now?

Finally, it was Gojo Satoru who came up with an idea. He received a message from Shingenichi, which roughly said that he would bring Tennariko to the high school in three days. As for the next few days... it was up to them. So he came up with a great idea.

"Let's go to the beach in Okinawa! How can we miss this in the summer!"

The trio and Riko are all young people, so they naturally hit it off on this kind of activity. Kuroi Misato has no objection to it, and she also wants Riko to spend these last few days happily.

So the flight was booked quickly, with Geto Suguru's special cursed spirit, the Rainbow Dragon, accompanying them. If all else fails, Gojo Satoru's technique can ensure that even if they encounter a plane crash, they can still survive at an altitude of ten thousand meters.

"set off!"
