Chapter 193 You are the most capable class I have ever led
2017 October.
An empty classroom that has just been vacated.
This year's freshman season is unusual.
Including but not limited to the original "Three Great Families" main family members, the descendants of the endangered curse masters, and the high-level cursed skeletons with extraordinary skills...
And, a premature love that had reached an exceptional level a year before entering school... no, a pure love boy.
"Hmm..." Teacher Su Ze stroked his chin and looked at the extraordinary new first-year students in front of him.
"Ze, you didn't expect that I'm already this tall~" the big panda classmate boasted. He patted his soft belly with his paws, full of pride.
Su Ze had seen a red panda in its cradle seven or eight years ago.
It is no exaggeration to say that the safe environment in which it can grow is all thanks to Su Ze and others who are students of the righteous path of the Night Moth.
——It was the potential deterrence of these "genius students" that prevented the "Elders' Council" that ruled over the magicians at the time from acting rashly.
During holidays, Su Ze would go to visit the panda with Gojo Satoru and others. In addition to its relationship as the "son" of Ye Mo Zhengdao, the existence of the panda itself has always interested Su Ze.
However, during the spring break one year, Master Su was upset for a while after he put a bamboo stick in his pocket to feed the Curse Corpse but was rejected by the Curse Corpse. Logically, he already knew that the Curse Corpse Corpse did not need to eat.
The panda then patted the shoulder of the boy next to him, who covered his entire chin and mouth with his scarf.
"This is Ji, he's not in a position to talk--" The panda was enthusiastic, and his thick bear paws patted the other's shoulder like a dotting machine.
"Salmon."
The silver-haired boy with a hedgehog head made a "yeah" gesture expressionlessly to show his agreement.
"I've read Ji's information--" Su Ze smiled and nodded to him.
Inugami Stake, the descendant of a curse-sayer. Because the language contains the power of the spell, in order to prevent accidental triggering, he usually only uses "absolutely safe" words such as rice ball fillings to express his emotions.
——Not only did I read his information, I also studied his dog language in detail.
For example, the word “salmon” just mentioned means “agree” or “echo”.
Su Ze silently recited the dog language translation again in his mind.
"Brother Ze, where did that idiot go?" The girl with long dark green hair was sitting at the side, and a long-handled broadsword with a red handle was standing upright next to the table.
She looked around and only saw Su Ze standing on the podium.
"The homeroom teacher won't be present at the freshman welcome party?" the girl said with some dissatisfaction.
The panda nodded heavily in agreement and slammed its big paw on the table, scaring the dog Juanji next to it.
"Maybe he remembered the time wrong or went to the wrong classroom..." Su Ze raised his eyebrows, not surprised.
"Uh, it seems like no one said "Idiot = Gojo Sensei", why are everyone so unanimous..." Okkotsu Yuta, who was sitting in the second row, smiled awkwardly.
Zenin Maki turned her head and looked at him directly, and the latter still had that harmless smile on his face.
Su Ze on the podium continued: "...Maki, you should be able to directly capture the location of the cursed spirit now, right? Why are you still wearing glasses?"
The girl with a high ponytail, Zenin Maki, took off her round-framed glasses, twirled them around her fingertips, and said casually, "Are you talking about this? I'm used to wearing it before. This is just a plain lens--"
She smiled confidently, and her side bangs swayed slightly in the light.
"Really?" Su Ze nodded slightly.
After seven years of hard work, the "curse" on Zenin Maki and Zenin Shinji has been alleviated to a considerable extent.
The specific implementation method is actually very simple. Su Ze first used a specially made combination of spell tools and talismans to replicate a miniature movable version of the barrier technique used by the elders during the previous "Qingji Temple Incident".
After being improved by Su Da's special committee chairman, the genius Taoist swordsman, and talisman immortal Ze, the effective range of that special barrier was firmly limited to the area around Zenin Maki.
The effect of the barrier is to "extract the magical energy of all living things."
Therefore, the trace of cursed power in Maki's body was extracted and then stored in the positive talisman paper specially made by Suze. Then, through the special effect of the talisman paper, that bit of cursed power was transferred to the sister talisman in the hand of Zenin Shinyi, which is the "negative" talisman paper.
In this way, the "key magical power" that limited the talents of both sisters was moved into the talisman.
Then, Zhenyi, who holds the talisman's medium "money", can use it to absorb that bit of magic power into her own body.
Such an almost fantastic operation, of course, cannot be done without the help of Miss Jiujiu, the theoretical genius in the world of sorcery.
This was also one of the requests that Su Ze had been assisting her with without reservation - to develop an improved version of that special barrier.
Of course, the attempt to completely solve this problem with just a half-baked Taoist priest and a lawful neutral with a wild imagination - just the partial efforts of these two people over a few years is not enough.
For example, the pair of Yin-Yang talismans have a maximum effective range (813.72 kilometers according to the test); the barrier engraved by Miss Ji needs regular maintenance...
"I think you guys can understand...right?"
A year ago in the summer, Su Ze called the two sisters to the laboratory in the back mountain of the college and explained to them the operating principle of this combined device.
"...You shouldn't ask me, you should ask that stupid guy." Zenin Shinji, who had short hair, looked disdainful and nodded at her sister beside her.
So, Suze, Miss Yuki, and Mayi, who was looking at her sister with a squint, all three of them looked at Zenin Maki at the same time.
"...Huh?" She was startled. "Why are you looking at me like that?!"
Zenin Maki seemed a little dissatisfied, and added with a grin: "What Ze-ge means is that the thing can solve our problems--" She put one hand on her waist and carried the big knife on her shoulder.
"...See, I told you she didn't understand." Chanyuan Zhenyi rolled her eyes and said with disdain.
Su Ze laughed helplessly.
……
In short, after a year of trials and improvements, the "curse" that had been like a thorn in the side of the two sisters for more than a decade has been largely resolved.
"Brother Ze," Zenin Maki crossed her legs and called him with her cheek in her hand.
"Hmm?" Su Ze looked over.
"Thank you very much, really." She said in a very low voice.
Her bangs drooped diagonally in front of her eyebrows, and her round-frame glasses reflected the sunlight so brightly that it was impossible to see her expression for a moment.
The people who were noisy just now suddenly fell silent, and the classroom was quiet for a moment.
Su Ze blinked and chuckled.
“…Really? Why is no one talking?” Zenin Maki covered her face with one hand and turned her head away.
"Oh~ Maki is shy~ Maki is shy~"
The next moment, the panda fulfilled her wish and started to cheer, clapping its thick paws.
"Shut up! You sweaty panda bastard! I told you to take a shower—"
Zenin Maki grabbed the big knife beside the table and chopped the panda's head with the back of the knife.
