[CG Overbearing CEO and His Little White Flower · Fake]
[CG The Strongest Sorcerer and His Little Overbearing CEO · True]
Merlin read two new CGs.
Unlike the previous cinematic style, these were clearly shot on mobile phones, as if the system had chosen a filming method similar to that used for Suguru Geto to enhance the sense of immersion.
Merlin..
I've got the sacred map, but my chastity is at risk, Young Master.
Chapter 66: The Troublemaker
Tengen's story is very long.
Perhaps it was because she had stayed in Koushin Palace for too long, but she had not stopped talking since she first started speaking, forcefully turning an exchange of information into a lecture on a thesis.
Another string of names, items, proper nouns appeared.
Unlike Kobe Suzuo's clear, concise, simple top-student notes, Tengen's sentences were not only unpolished and blunt, but his tone was also that of a steady, monotone news anchor.
It makes one lose focus time and time again.
Suguru Geto was somewhat tolerable, but Satoru Gojo was not; he felt as if Tengen's speech was like an Old Orange that had gained sentience, making him wish he could press a fast-forward button in the real world.
In the end, he simply multi-tasked, researching small-scale Cursed Techniques while listening, all while huddling beside Kobe Suzuo.
“So this is it!”
Kobe Suzuo looked at the meeting summary provided in real-time by Merlin and confirmed:
For a thousand years, you've been causing trouble time and again, all just to use your ability to satisfy your ultimate perversion, as a side effect, make the entire population of Japan die with you?
Tengen remained silent for two seconds before nodding. "Correct."
Kobe Suzuo gave a chilling sneer, "Then he is quite overbearing."
Tengen politely complimented, "That certainly can't be compared to you.."
She knew she had misspoke and tried to cover it up awkwardly, "Ha, ha, I didn't mean it like that."
I'm sorry, but the text provided in the `CURRENT_PARAGRAPH_TO_TRANSLATE` section consists of garbled, nonsensical characters and does not contain any translatable Chinese content. Please provide the correct text.
Kobe Suzuo actually felt that this label was quite optional; after all, the person was already a Sorcerer, as everyone knows, Sorcerers who had committed crimes were everywhere.
He went over the intelligence again and asked, "Is there anything else I need to be briefed on?"
“For example, the recent increase in activity.. could it be because his insane.. I mean, the plan to create a brand-new Cursed Energy lifeform has reached a critical stage?”
It has started becoming active recently. Is it because of his neurosis.. I mean, has the plan to create a brand-new Cursed Energy lifeform reached a critical stage?
Tengen straightened his back, feeling intimidated by the meaningful look in Kobe Suzuo's eyes.
She knew a bit about these questions, but she couldn't clarify a single specific detail.
Tengen had always been overly confident, thinking that..
Kobe Suzuo's eyes darkened. His slender fingers curled around the bronze-colored fox-headed staff, his index finger tapping the Fox Head Staff unconsciously, "And the most important thing—"
“Can you be sure that this information is complete and accurate?”
Tengen could have been certain, but at this moment, facing Kobe Suzuo's inscrutable, dark eyes, she began to lose her confidence.
Her hesitation caused Kobe Suzuo to sneer again.
Fine, I'm not really expecting you to be of much use. [Window] will verify this information, it will be handed over to the Director's Department for further processing.
Kobe Suzuo patted Satoru Gojo, who was leaning back while playing with a jump rope using Blue, stood up with the help of her cane, announcing from a high vantage point:
“I will give you two months. During this time, you need to research a core capable of temporarily replacing the original body to operate the barrier. In two months, I will send you away from Japan, then I will deliver X, who is also the culprit!”
Tengen's four eyes widened simultaneously. "What? That's impossible, I can't leave Japan either.."
Kobe Suzuo raised a hand to interrupt her.
Have you tried it before? If you haven't, how do you know it's impossible? If you have, how many times did you fail, why didn't you persist?
A living fossil of Barrier Techniques, claiming that barrier techniques have regressed a thousand years without you—and yet you can't even do something like this?
He spoke very quickly, those who knew him knew that he was being impatient.
He looked at people as if they were dogs, his face clearly reading, "How are you even less intelligent than a dog?"
Kobe Suzuo turned on the auxiliary functions of her invisible earpiece, her eyes never leaving her phone for a single moment, abruptly falling into a busy atmosphere.
He finally declared, "This is a notification, not a negotiation."
This feeling was like Tengen and..
The stalemate had lasted for a thousand years, a stalemate that was nearly impossible to break.
After sizing him up for a long time, the man cursed him once as a "stinky amateur," then disdainfully flipped the chessboard and posted a notice at the village entrance:
[This area has been contracted by the Kobe Family as a development zone; elderly men and women are prohibited from playing chess here]
It took a long time for Tengen to find his voice. "I can agree to try, but I have one condition."
Kobe Suzuo had obtained the information she wanted and was reviewing Merlin's detailed analysis. Upon hearing that, she shot Tengen a look—speak up if you have something to say.
“If it succeeds, you must go abroad with me, you damn idiot!”
Satoru Gojo stopped what he was doing and looked Tengen up and down, questioning him in a joking manner:
“On what grounds? Are you some kind of wicked old woman? Why must you send Suzuo abroad?”
If that suture-like entity stays hidden for decades or even centuries and cannot be found, wouldn't Suzuo be trapped abroad for her entire life?
Do you really think this is some Mary Sue manga?
Kobe Suzuo spoke after Satoru Gojo, "If you are worried about safety, Yuki Tsukumo and Saunai Zhuzhu are over there looking after things."
The combat power of a Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer, plus a "get-out-of-death-free card" that can use a Cursed Technique to "refuse" death.
One attacker and one supporter—this was the "personal" bodyguard duo of Kobe Suzuo before she successfully recruited Fushiguro Toji.
“As for the rest, you will figure it out in two months.”
Kobe Suzuo nodded slightly, smiled at Tengen, turned to walk toward the vast emptiness behind her.
This meeting came suddenly and ended inexplicably.
Satoru Gojo raised an eyebrow, readjusted his sunglasses onto the bridge of his nose, followed close behind, tapping Suguru Geto's shoulder as he passed him.
Suguru Geto snapped back to reality, shaking off his cluttered thoughts.
Rather than causing a scene, his trip here today with Satoru was more like a way to make them witness something.
“You should understand what I mean, Ignorant Person.”
Tengen, who had been having his rhythm disrupted throughout the entire process, finally regained a bit of his original state of mind.
She called out to Kobe Suzuo, her four pure white eyes hollow and lifeless, appearing inhuman and eerie.
“Ignorant Person.”
Tengen repeated the title once more, "When causality overlaps, the world will either reject you or kill you."
Suguru Geto paused his steps and turned back to look at Tengen, "What did you say?"
Tengen spoke in a steady tone and continued:
“The ability to break causality is not something everyone possesses. The balance broken by Satoru Gojo has tilted once again. Kobe Suzuo, you are different from all of us; you are special.”
For a Jujutsu Sorcerer, Causality, Balance, Binding are three extremely important concepts.
Fate is predestined, an unchangeable law ordained by the heavens.
"Eh~ Is this a prophecy?" Satoru Gojo turned around, his tone as frivolous as ever, but his expression was filled with unmistakable mockery.
I say, Lord Tengen, aren't you a Barrier User? Why are you working part-time as a hag one moment and a witch the next?
The further one moved from Tengen's position, the more striking the surrounding void became, like a pure white canvas that would remain stagnant forever if no one ever applied a brushstroke.
Tengen turned a deaf ear to the questions from Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto: "Give me your answer, Ignorant Person."
Kobe Suzuo sighed, "I don't like that title. Stop calling me that."
He turned slightly, but instead of looking at Tengen again, he waved toward Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto.
“Your question is meaningless, so I have no desire to answer it. You are over a thousand years old; it is time you lived a bit more transparently.”
Tengen asked, "Is this your answer?"
Kobe Suzuo waited for Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto to stand by her side. "That hardly counts as an answer."
He took a step forward, his leather shoes making no sound on the pure white floor.
Send us back to Jujutsu High, Tengen, or I'll have Satoru and Suguru beat you again.
The pure white space dissipated like thick fog, a stone archway abruptly appeared, dark and opaque, making it impossible to see where it led.
Kobe Suzuo smiled, pushing Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto through the archway, one on each side.
With a flash of black and white, sunlight filtered through the shadows of the trees and fell upon them. At high noon, they had returned to the mountain path in the back hills of Jujutsu High.
Suguru Geto hesitated, his gaze toward Kobe Suzuo filled with conflict. "Mr. Suzuo, what Lord Tengen just said.."
Kobe Suzuo waved her hand dismissively, "Riddlers are all like that; it's normal for them to be cryptic."
He checked the time, shoved the staff into Satoru Gojo's hands, methodically dealt with the messages accumulated throughout the morning.
Satoru Gojo crossed his arms and said coldly, "It's not entirely nonsense; Suzuo is indeed a very 'special' person."
Kobe Suzuo opened the two emails highlighted in red by Merlin, her eyebrows arching playfully, failing to detect the faint sarcasm in Satoru Gojo's tone.
Hmm, I can admit that. I have always been the special one.
Satoru Gojo curled his lips, feeling slightly dissatisfied with Kobe Suzuo's vague behavior.
Whoa, is Suzuo a born CEO? Did someone hand her a cigar the moment she let out her first cry at birth, then tell her that a CEO never cries?
Kobe Suzuo was assigning tasks to the Window and the Cursed Spirit Inspection Department when, hearing this, she nearly sent the email using the Assistant Supervisor's account.
“Is this some new kind of joke? Hmm, it's quite vivid, but I don't smoke cigars or cigarettes.”
