Bald cape conjurer

On the sports field of the High School of Magic, the jet-black sphere formed by the expansion of the field and the flowing light dissipated instantly.And Saitama and Gojo Satoru in the center of the field slowly landed.

"Are you going back now?" Gojo Satoru asked after the domain was released.

"Hmm. Because there's nothing else to do, right?" Saitama rubbed the back of his head and replied, "I've also seen the culmination of spell warfare—the expansion of the domain."

"Although I don't quite understand it, it's really a powerful move." Speaking of this, Saitama smiled, "I can't do it at all."

——But your strength is enough to allow you to move freely in the infinite space.Field expansion is a combat technique that can only be used by extremely top conjurers, and it is the pinnacle of magic warfare, but I am afraid that ordinary fields will not be a problem for you at all.

Thinking this way, Gojo Satoru exhaled a little breath from his nasal cavity, and then smiled.

"Saitama-kun is also amazing."

……

"So, why did you follow me home..."

Saitama, who was standing at the door of his apartment, slowly took out the key with the yellow plastic giraffe keychain to open the door. From the corner of his eye, he looked at Gojo Satoru, who was as excited as a primary school student visiting a classmate's house, and slowly dripped a drop from his forehead. sweat.

"Don't care, don't care." Gojo Satoru waved his hands with a smile, "As a teacher, it's only natural to care about the living conditions of new students."

"Then just take a look and go back." Saitama had no choice but to twist the key and opened the door, "I don't have wagyu or sea urchins to entertain you, only bananas are left. You must not be used to the things in my house."

Gojo Satoru didn't answer.As soon as Saitama opened the door, his gaze had passed through the blindfold to the corridors, stairs, and even up and down floors.

The place where Saitama lives is quite remote. It is an old apartment building in a place with poor law and order in the city.Due to frequent disappearances and fatal accidents, this place has been almost uninhabited as early as two years ago, and has become what people call a "ghost town".But in general, since the government has not yet circled this area to prohibit people from living, the water, electricity and gas here have not been stopped, and there is no need to pay when using it.

Gojo Satoru can understand why Saitama lives here.After all, many residents who originally lived here simply abandoned their homes and fled, and there are many intact houses.Living in an abandoned house without paying any utility rent.For poor Saitama, living here can greatly reduce his living costs.

But the fundamental reason why this place is called a "ghost town" is not known to ordinary people, but it is not a secret in the magic world-a few years ago, a large number of magic spirits suddenly appeared in this area, which caused a considerable amount of unknown die.The birth of the curse was further exacerbated by the negative emotions of the local residents and residents of other areas who learned of the unknown death through the news media.

Although there are also conjurers who go to exorcise the curse spirits, the speed at which the curse spirits are born is much faster than the work of the few conjurers.Fortunately, the residents have begun to move out on their own, and most of the curse spirits are like the earth-bound spirits, bound at the place where they were born, making it difficult to move freely.Therefore, in the end, the magic world chose to let things go in their own way towards the area where there were basically no residents living.

Without residents, there are no victims.In the absence of victims, leaving this place alone and using the scarce conjurer resources in other more urgent places is the most reasonable approach considered by the upper echelons.But Gojo Satoru disagreed with this.

According to his thinking, the sudden appearance of a large number of spell spirits in this area is too abnormal, and it is obviously caused by man.And the opponent placed a large number of spell spirits in the same area, most likely for the purpose of causing the spell spirits to kill each other, and eventually, like raising Gu, a super powerful spell spirit was born, the king of spell spirits who made ordinary spell spirits shy away.

And the one who can collect and place so many spell spirits in one go is the only person Gojo Satoru can think of.

But that person had already been killed by him during the Night Walk of the Hundred Ghosts a year ago.So even if this was his plan, it has become useless now.

As for the curse spirit in the ghost city, Gojo Satoru did nothing.Even if his conjecture is true, instead of chasing after a large number of curse spirits for repeated work, it would be more convenient and quicker to deal with the Gu King curse spirit directly after it is born.

But since entering the ghost town, Gojo Satoru has observed the surroundings carefully.This is clearly an apartment building in the center of the ghost town, but it doesn't even have a curse spirit.Even all the way from the edge of the ghost town to here, he failed to find a curse spirit.

Obviously, the rumors of "monsters in the ghost town" are still raging. It stands to reason that people's negative emotions will lead to the continuous birth of curse spirits here.But looking at it with his own eyes, he found that the place was unexpectedly clean.

Is it because the curse spirits here have lost their human source and have begun to devour each other, resulting in a significant reduction in number?Or is there another reason...

Just when Gojo Satoru was thinking, Saitama, who had already entered the door, stuck his head out from the door.

"Why don't you come in?" He asked first, and then suddenly showed an expression of enlightenment, and asked happily, "Ah, did you remember something else to do?"

"Of course not."

Gojo Satoru raised his leg and walked in, looking around.

Although there are many houses in good condition in the ghost town without water or electricity cutoffs, Saitama did not live in a luxurious villa, but chose an ordinary 1DK apartment. The entire apartment area is only about 1.9 square meters, and the place is small. Gojo Satoru, a [-]-meter man, had to be uncomfortable.

There are ordinary office desks, chairs and TVs in the room. There is a short table in the center, and there are empty instant noodle boxes stacked on the small table that have not had time to throw away.Quilts are stacked at the end.In the kitchen, there were still unfinished scallions and a banana that Saitama bought the day before.The air outlet of the air conditioner was pasted with paper and tape, and the word "conservation" was written on the paper.

"Why doesn't Saitama-kun live in a big villa?" Gojo Satoru asked, "Many villas near here are in good condition, and the places are more spacious."

"It's me who wants to live in a smaller room." Saitama replied, "This way I can calm down more."

Under Saitama's gaze, Gojo Satoru walked around the small apartment calmly, and then sat down cross-legged in front of the small coffee table without treating himself as a guest at all.

"Just a little thirsty, do you have tea?" He raised his head and asked.

"Yes, there is. Hurry up and go back after you finish your tea." Saitama finished packing the instant noodle box, opened the refrigerator, took out a bottle of oolong tea that also had a discount sticker on it, unscrewed it, and found two unsuitable ones Teacup, pour him a cup of tea.

Gojo Satoru took the teacup, turned it around in his hand, but didn't drink it right away.

"Saitama-kun, since when did you live here?" He asked while turning the teacup.

"Well...about half a year ago." Saitama scratched his head and replied.

"Did you encounter any curse spirits when you moved in?" Wujo Wu asked, "This is an area where curse spirits frequently occur, so it gradually became a no-man's land."

"Sometimes... I will encounter it." Saitama recalled, "But I usually deal with it with a single punch, so I don't really remember which curse spirits I encountered. How can anyone remember the defeated enemies one by one? live."

Sure enough.I am afraid that the person who cast the curse spirit did not expect that his plan that led to the birth of the ghost town would attract the poor Saitama to live here.

Thinking of this, Gojo Satoru showed a slight smile on his face.

It was a stroke of luck to draw this person into his team.

After taking a sip of the cool oolong tea in the cup, Gojo Satoru was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Speaking of this... Saitama-kun, why did you become so strong?"

"Do you want to know why I became stronger?"

Speaking of this, Saitama's sluggish expression suddenly became serious: "Since you want to know, then I'll tell you."

Gojo Satoru was taken aback for a moment, and then his smile became more obvious.

What, it makes people involuntarily look forward to it.If it is a good method, let other students do the same when you go back.

Gojo Satoru's Adam's apple rolled subconsciously.He sat up straight involuntarily, and pricked up his ears: "Speak."

Saitama lowered his head slightly, the shadow under the brow bone covered his often dull eyes.This made his stick figure-like face instantly serious.

"I am 25 years old, and I started exercising when I was 22 years old. Since the day I decided to become a hero driven by interest, I have carried out my own training plan every day, and I have not slackened a day. I did not reach this state until three years later. .”

I saw him take a deep breath, and said sonorously: "Do one hundred push-ups, one hundred sit-ups, one hundred squats, and run ten kilometers every day!"

"Of course, in order to be able to complete the training every day, three meals a day cannot be ignored. But if you have nothing to eat, you can eat bananas. Naturally, things like air conditioners are not meant for practitioners, and I don't even turn them on when it's cold or hot."

Saitama recalled the past, and his face gradually became painful: "It may be a bit hard at the beginning, but the trick is to persevere. When exercising, it hurts as if the lungs are about to explode. But it is precisely this time that you must persist! Even if you vomit blood after training You must persist! Even if you have edema, muscle soreness, and joint pain, you must persist!"

"After half a year of training..."

Saitama raised his head, a light flashed on his bald head, dazzling.

"I'm getting bald and I'm getting stronger."

"Sacrificing a full head of hair, even if you become bald, you must become strong. This is the only way to be strong."

After finishing speaking, Saitama stared at Gojo Satoru solemnly, and did not speak for a long time.There was a long silence in the room.

Gojo Satoru's smile froze on his face: "Are you serious?"

Saitama nodded solemnly: "Really."

"Is there nothing else besides this?"

"Nothing."

"..."

When leaving the apartment where Saitama lived, Gojo Satoru glanced back at the balcony where the clothes were drying.

It seems that it is not the sky and the curse.Heaven and curse are innate constitutions established at birth.But before Saitama became stronger, he was an ordinary person through and through.

He is just an ordinary person who has opened the human limiter just by exercising his own muscles.As illogical as it sounds, there is no other explanation.

According to Saitama, he became bald and stronger, and lost his emotions because of it.The fear, excitement, unwillingness in the battle...all disappeared.Perhaps it is for this reason that he does not produce any magic power.But his fists can actually cause damage to the curse spirit.

This bald head is simply an existence beyond common sense.

"What a wonderful man."

Gojo Satoru put his hands in the pockets of his uniform, and he said to himself as he walked, "How about giving him the task of recovering Su Nuo's fingers?"
