Chapter 12 Day : The Grudge? The Curse Returns!

An apartment somewhere in Setagaya Ward.

"This is a safe house of the Curse Association in Tokyo. There are medical supplies, food, and clean water. You can help yourselves."

Zenyuan turned on the light tiredly, and then, unable to maintain his noble demeanor any longer, he slumped down on the sofa.

The moment Kayako attacked him just now, he felt like he was about to die. The malice and curse that penetrated deep into his bones were enough to take the life of any non-magician in an instant.

"Is this how you treat the wound? There's no magical technique?" Zhuang Boshi, who had come to his senses, finally had his clever brain working, and he asked tentatively.

"Reversal technique? I don't have such advanced technology." Kato grinned as he bandaged himself, then took out a can of beer from the refrigerator, opened it, and took a big gulp.

"Wow, I'm finally alive. Ahhhhh, I really don't want to face such a terrifying curse spirit again."

The Jujutsu Association, reversal techniques, cursed spirits. Sure enough, his guess was correct. He'd had a rough idea of ​​what was going on when he'd seen the two calling themselves sorcerers. Now he was pretty sure the setting for this world of the Grudge was the comic-comedy-comedy, the king of memes, Jujutsu Kaisen.

[Thinking carefully, the backgrounds of Jujutsu Kaisen and The Grudge are inexplicably consistent.]

[Cursed spirits and curses are born from resentment and fear. They have little wisdom, no karma, and only great malice directed against the living.]

Zenin asked weakly, "Now tell me, who are you? What are you doing in Tokyo?"

Chu Xuan pushed his glasses and said calmly, "We are from the East Asian Countermeasures Office of the International Curse Spirit Suppression Association. We came to Tokyo this time just to conduct a special study on earthbound spirits. We didn't expect that the number of curse spirits we are studying is far greater than we imagined."

"International Curse Suppression Association?" Zenyuan and Kato exchanged a puzzled look, "What kind of organization is this? We've never heard of it."

"It's a newly established international organization, primarily responsible for the research of cursed spirits and certain frontier explorations. It's not a true combat department." Chu Xuan said as he took out spirit bullets from his tactical bag and pointed at them, saying, "These spirit bullets are the results of our latest research."

Chanyuan picked up the bullet and examined it carefully. Seeing the runes on it, he began to believe Chu Xuan's words. "I can't understand the spell. As expected, you are not sorcerers, but you have the ability to harm cursed spirits. Is this the technology you rely on?"

"To be precise, it's a combination of technology and magic." Chu Xuan replied calmly.

Seeing Chu Xuan's serious deception, Zhuang Boshi suddenly felt relieved. It was not his fault. Chu Xuan was the kind of person who lied without blinking an eye.

He coughed dryly twice and added, "As you know, the idea of ​​combining technology and magic was proposed a hundred years ago. However, many magicians remained isolated and unwilling to accept the latest technology. As a result, the association has not received much support from powerful magicians or families. Even now, it is mostly composed of non-magicians, with only a few unknown wandering magicians joining."

Kato glanced at Zenin with a half-smile and said, "That's true. Some Japanese sorcerer families can't even use electrical appliances these days. I think they'll be eliminated by you sooner or later."

Zenyuan looked a little depressed: "So how many of you came?"

"Twenty people," Zhuang Boshi sighed, holding his forehead. "Among them is a finance lady in her fifties, a driver in his thirties, a twenty-year-old university intern who hasn't even graduated yet, and teenagers traveling with their parents."

"Huh?" Kato and Zenin were both shocked and asked in disbelief, "Are you here on vacation?"

"Yeah, we finally managed to arrange a research project, so we're going to have to spend all the funds. Besides, it's a rare business trip to Tokyo, so I was planning to take a vacation." Zhuang Boshi suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "It's all the fault of that broker. He said the cursed house was just a harmless earthbound spirit that had always been living there, and it wasn't a threat at all."

"I didn't expect that after we entered that house, we were immediately entangled by the curse." Zhuang Boshi continued to spin his story, his inspiration growing. "As a result, our team split up. Some people were afraid of danger if they continued their research, so they planned to stay in Tokyo for seven days before returning. Anyway, the Japan Jujutsu Association didn't ask us to deal with this cursed spirit, so I guess it's still enjoying a bubble bath and spa in some hotel."

"The other part, that's us. It's probably not that simple to detect this cursed spirit. Its power is so strong that it exceeds all the cursed spirits we've studied before. If we don't deal with it quickly, it may leave this country with us and haunt us to death."

"Sure enough, we were attacked that night. We had no choice but to blow up the house. Of course, it ultimately proved to be a futile effort."

After listening to this, Zenyuan took a deep breath and said, "Should I admire your courage, or should I laugh at your carelessness? You actually brought a tour group to visit the Cursed House."

"That place is so isolated that even we sorcerers can only observe it and dare not set foot inside. You actually dare to go there for team building." Kato also admired.

Isolation, I don't know where it's isolated, but there are still people living there. But it's not surprising, the Curse Association has always been so unreliable. Zhuang Boshi complained silently.

Chu Xuan frowned and said, "You guys can't deal with Kayako either?"

"It's not that there is no way, it's just that..." Zenyuan explained.

"There's just no way," Kato interrupted. "There's a shortage of skilled sorcerers in Japan right now. There aren't even a few first-level ones left. Zen-in-the-making proposed your method of blowing up that cursed house, but it was rejected by the Curse Association." "It's simple. There aren't many people in Japan who can handle this near-special-grade Curse Linga Coconut head-on."

Zhuang Boshi thought about the timeline. At the current point in time, the four future special-grade sorcerers are still children or minors, and the curse spirits have ushered in a wave of enhancement with the birth of Gojo Satoru. It seems that there is really no powerful sorcerer in the entire sorcery world who can exorcise Kayako.

"Just like the cursed spirit Sadako you met today, she was a descendant of the ancient powerful sorcerer Kamo Ekikun Kokaku. Not only did she awaken at a young age, but her cursed power grew stronger with age. It's just that the association was in turmoil at the time, and they didn't discover and guide her in time."

"So she regarded this ability as a special function, and was gradually affected by the dark resentment of certain cursed spirits. Later, she was killed, and the resentment gathered in her, giving birth to the current quasi-special cursed spirit Sadako." Kato finished speaking in one breath, and the muscles on his face twitched as if the wound was pulled.

Zenin beside him added: "We have found Sadako for many years, but no matter what method we used, including using a large barrier to seal Izu Oshima and using a cursed tool to seal the well where her body was, it had no effect."

"The cursed videotape is like a virus. It cannot be killed or eliminated. It continues to circulate among the public and continues to kill people."

Kato held his head in his hands and said in distress, "There are really more and more cursed spirits now. Every year, more people are killed by cursed spirits than the year before."

"That's right, especially someone like you, with a perfect [Cursed Spirit Embryo], will be constantly pursued by the Cursed Spirit." Zenyuan pointed at Zhuang Boshi.

"Ah?" Zhuang Boshi was stunned.

The cursed spirit fetus doesn't sound like a good thing.

"Cursed spirits often satisfy their emptiness by killing living beings. However, there is another way that can also satisfy them." Zenyuan looked at Zhuang Boshi with a rather strange look.

"It's called incarnation. The cursed spirit will take over a human body through possession, thus gaining new life. However, the flesh of an ordinary person cannot bear the power of the cursed spirit and can easily be eroded by the cursed energy in a very short time, thus losing its vitality. Generally speaking, only if the incarnation is broken within three days can the human have a chance of survival."

"Only the [Curse Spirit Embryo] can perfectly carry the power of a curse spirit, protecting the soul from being eroded by resentment and allowing a powerful curse spirit to occupy it for a long time. Therefore, the [Curse Spirit Embryo] is like Master Sanzang in Journey to the West, coveted by many high-level curse spirits."

So that's how it is, Zhuang Boshi thought ruefully. No wonder his mere presence always drew the attention of the evil spirits. Not only was he entangled by Kayako, but Sadako also jumped on his face. In the eyes of these evil spirits, he must be a hot commodity, ready to possess someone else's body.

The third-generation Chu Hao speculated about the suitability of newcomers in horror films. This means that after entering a horror film world, newcomers must be suited to the film. Either their abilities can help solve plot problems, or their perspectives can reveal clues to the main god's missions, or they can adapt to the film's unique powers, rapidly increasing their power. Tom's ability to obtain a free vampire mutant bloodline in Bloodthirsty Dawn likely stems from his physique being particularly well-suited to becoming a vampire. The first-generation Luo Yinglong is also a case in point. He was spotted by Changmei and immediately began studying Shushan cultivation, earning him a truly innate Daoist body.

But Zhuang Boshi had never expected that his physique was actually particularly compatible with the supernatural. It was a rare trait. He had never been told since he was a child that his yang energy was weak and he would be easily harmed by evil.

However, in this case, perhaps the direction of future strengthening will need to be slightly adjusted.

"How long can that tent stop Sadako and the others?" Seeing Zhuang Boshi lost in thought, Chu Xuan continued to ask.

Zenyuan's expression was somewhat grave. "Curses are the embers of death, originating from the pent-up resentment and anger of those who died unjustly. Their resentment gathered in the places where they lived, forming a terrifying aura of resentment. Therefore, many cursed spirits possess the characteristics of earthbound spirits."

"Sadako won't wreak havoc outside for too long. Except for Mr. Zhuang, none of us have seen the cursed videotape. Having lost its target, it will soon return to the abandoned well on Izu Oshima. Of course, it will come back to kill Mr. Zhuang in seven days. But Kayako—" Zenyuan looked at Chu Xuan helplessly, "Kayako's restraints have been released. She is no longer confined to that house and is likely to become an extremely vicious wandering spirit. Ordinary rules no longer apply to her. You who have entered that house, including us, may become her next target at any time."

The room fell into silence. Zhuang Boshi was worried about his special physique. As for Sadako, he was not worried. As long as he could return to the main god's space alive, Sadako's curse would naturally be removed by the main god.

Kato and Zenin are thinking about how to completely eradicate Kayako, otherwise, it is likely to trigger a bloody massacre in Tokyo.

As for Chu Xuan, no one could detect any emotion in his indifferent eyes.

[Spellcaster, cursed spirit, it turns out the Lord's horror movie has a hidden worldview]

[It’s really interesting. That way, many things can be planned.]

After a long while, Chu Xuan slowly said, "I have an idea. Perhaps we can remove the two curse spirits at once."

Again? ! !

Zhuang Boshi suddenly woke up, looked at the expressionless Chu Xuan, and suddenly felt a chill on his back.
