"what?"

As if born with a lack of nerves to perceive ambiguous atmospheres, Shendu Rin listened to the confession, showing a straight man's confused expression on the spot, and put his backhand on Gojo Satoru's forehead, carefully measured the temperature for a long time, and then put it down suspiciously. arm, murmured:

"Strange, you don't have a fever, why did you start talking crazy?"

"..."

Gojo Satoru rolled his eyes, withdrew his hand from the man's face, and took a deep breath indiscriminately.

Sure enough, it was still this reaction, what exactly was he expecting...

"Forget it, I'm joking."

After getting the expected rejection, Gojo Satoru quickly adjusted his mood, waved his hand, and dismissed the matter, and started a new topic.

"Speaking of which, Xiao Lin, weren't you just curious about what I was doing when I went back to Wutiao's house?"

He paused, and when Shendu Rin showed an interested attitude, he suddenly smiled, and mysteriously lowered his voice and said, "Actually, it has something to do with you."

"...Related to me?" Shendu Rin was taken aback, subconsciously frowned, "Could it be because of this mission?"

After the last Mihua Park incident, Gojo Satoru made a special trip to have a detailed discussion with Shindu Rin, reminding the latter to be more vigilant and pay more attention to the abnormal behavior of the high-level people in the magic circle; Shendu Rin's safety is protected.

And this mission to Saitama County to exterminate super-level curse spirits can obviously be classified into the category of "abnormal behavior".

"Well, almost." Gojo Satoru did not deny Rin Kanto's guess, "I did say hello to a few old men at home and asked them to watch the movement of some rotten oranges...but this was not the point of going back yesterday. "

He stretched his arms, stood up suddenly, opened the cabinet next to the sofa under Shendu Rin's suspicious gaze, and took out a long wooden box from it.

This wooden box was about one meter long, and it was held upright in Gojo Satoru's arms. It was pure white in color, and the workmanship was so exquisite that almost no wooden texture could be seen on the surface.

When it was handed to Shinto Rin, there was still a faint fragrance of pine wood floating in the air, which made the black-haired boy startled for a moment, and looked up at Gojo Satoru in a daze, "Is this for me?"

"Yes, this is a gift I specially brought to you," Gojo Satoru raised the corners of his lips, and urged him in a slightly deep voice, with a sense of delusion for no reason, "Open it and have a look, Xiao Lin."

"..."

Rin Kanto pursed her lips, reached out to take the wooden box, and placed it across her lap.

The box looked quite expensive, polished extremely smooth, cold and hard to the touch, the white color did not seem to come from the paint, but the original color of the wood itself.

The heavy weight indicated the extraordinaryness of this object. Rin Kanto stared at it for a while, hesitated for a while, and finally stretched out his hand under Gojo Satoru's expectant eyes, pushed the side buckle aside, and slowly opened the door. only wooden box.

A corner of the light gray velvet cloth was first exposed, and the aroma of pine wood became stronger and stronger. Rin Shendu pushed the lid of the box away completely, and the things inside finally showed the whole picture, which made him take a deep breath and pointed The tip trembled uncontrollably.

——This is a white sword.

The blade of this knife is long and slender, with a slight curve and a smooth arc. The scabbard seems to be carved from jade, with smooth lines, exquisite and clear, without any impurities;

In order to enhance the friction between the handle and the palm, diamond-shaped engravings are specially added on the front and back sides, and lines are used to outline the neatly arranged grids. However, the color of white jade is not maintained in it, but blue gemstones are inlaid. , reflecting the bright silver streamer under the lamp.

The moment he saw them, Shendu Rin couldn't help but think of the pair of clear sky pupils that always seemed to be surrounded by a light white mist.

"This, this is too expensive..."

The knuckles fastened to the lid of the box were tightened, Rin Kandu couldn't take his eyes off, his eyes were glued to the Taidao, and he could hear the ecstasy in his voice.

There is no way, this is an instinctive love for weapons as a magic tool, and he can't control it.

On the contrary, Gojo Satoru chuckled, sat back to his original position, and suddenly grabbed Rin Kanto's wrist, pressed his hand over the handle of the knife, and said with great interest, "How does it feel to try?"

The handle of the knife looks cold, but when you hold it, it feels unexpectedly warm. Rin Kanwata gripped it tightly with his fingers reflexively, a little surprised: "What material is this? Is it really jade?"

"Yes, it's a special kind of jadeite." Gojo Satoru replied with a smile, "Knives in the Heian period often used a lot of jade as materials... Ah, seriously, this knife has a history of hundreds of years. "

Even in the collections of the Wujo family, it can be said to be on the list.

It's okay if Gojo Satoru doesn't mention it. After knowing this, Shendu Rin's hands trembled and his eyes widened. He only felt that what he was holding in his palm was not a knife handle, but a handful of banknotes that could not be counted. .

"Hundreds of years of history?!" He was so frightened that he stuttered, "Then I can't accept it—"

"Hey, why not?" Gojo Satoru raised his eyebrows and interrupted Rin Kanto, "If something like a weapon is not held and used by someone, it will lose its soul and become a flashy decoration."

While speaking calmly, he put his hands together to prevent the other party from letting go of the dagger, "You are currently the best spell user in the high school, and you are fully qualified to be its master, so why refuse?"

"But……"

"The name of this knife is 'Yu Chi'. "

The next head of the Gojo family spoke briskly, as if he was talking about "what flavor of Kikufu to eat today", and didn't care about the struggling expression on Rin Kawatari's face, and introduced himself: "This It is one of the special magic tools that have been included in the collection of the Gojo family since the heyday of magic spells ended."

"Well, and you also know that since it can be defined as a 'superior magic tool', it must have some special effects..."

Gojo Gojo paused, looked at Kamitarin and smiled, as if he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with taking out the sky-high priced antiques as gifts, and patted the other person's shoulder with his other free hand, "Isn't it? It’s just a gift, and it scares you like this?”

Kanto Rin: "..."

Shendu Rin's whole body was stiff, and he immediately looked away from the "jade ruler", as if he would be burned if he looked at it too much, he only felt that his throat was dry.

"This is a super-grade magic tool, senior!" He was a little shocked, and said a little bit dumbfoundingly, "Don't treat it like a Chinese cabbage and give it away for no reason, okay?"

"I didn't give it away indiscriminately." Gojo Satoru lowered his head with a smile, put his head on the person's shoulder, and rubbed his snow-white hair against the side of Kanto Rin's face, "Listen to me first."

"The special feature of "Jade Ruler" is that it can transform the user's magic power into a "blade wind" with substantial lethality through its own blade, and attack as a long-range weapon regardless of the distance between the enemy and ourselves. "

"Its previous owner was a well-known incantation tool in the heyday of incantations. After he became famous in the first battle, he called this incantation ability "Measurement" and disclosed the name "Jade Ruler". Wutiao Wu said with a smile, "A 'ruler' that can 'measure' distance...isn't it interesting?" "

After listening to his words, Shendu Rin pursed her lips and unconsciously clenched the hilt of her sword more tightly.

As a magic tool user who is accustomed to using the sword, no one knows the disadvantages of this weapon better than him-although it is much better than daggers and other types of magic tools, the sword is still a melee weapon and must be kept at a certain distance from the opponent. Only within the range of a certain distance can it exert its lethality.

Unfortunately, the enemies that conjurers will encounter are often curse spirits with great natural strength, or curse masters with extraordinary skills... If you fight at a closer distance, you may be more likely to be injured.

Without absolute strength suppression and without knowing the opponent's hole cards, the risks faced in melee combat are often several times higher than in long-range combat.

After all, not everyone likes to use the method of "disclosing spells" to enhance their own strength.

——The game does not lie to me, the kite-flying game will always be the god.

It has to be said that if the "jade ruler" is a commodity, then Kanto Rin may not hesitate to spend all his wealth and try his best to buy it from Gojo Satoru.

But if he was asked to accept such a precious spell as a gift, Kandu Rin would feel uneasy in his conscience, and his desire to refuse became stronger than ever.

As we all know, debt of favor is the most difficult debt in the world to pay off.

What's more, it's Wujo Wu's favor!

He couldn't imagine what kind of price he could afford to repay a proud man who stood at the top of the magic world.

"...Senior, thank you for your kindness, but I really can't accept this gift calmly."

Kanto Rin sighed, and let go of the handle of the knife with a strong attitude. He didn't even let the knife out of its sheath, then closed the lid again, picked up the wooden box, and handed it back to the other party.

However, Gojo Satoru quickly put his hands behind his back, not only did he not intend to accept the wooden box at all, but he also looked like he had expected that the other party would not accept it, and said "tsk":

"I said a long time ago that Xiao Rin's personality is a bit too rigid, boring like an antique..."

Just when Shendu Rin was wondering when he said this, Gojo Satoru shrugged helplessly, sighed, and said in compromise: "Forget it, since you don't want it, then treat it as I temporarily put it away." Let me lend it to you for a while, is that okay?"

"But wouldn't that still be—"

"Xiao Lin, be obedient. The task in Saitama County is not easy, you must have a certain ability to protect yourself."

Gojo Satoru's tone suddenly became serious, interrupting Kanto Rin's attempt to refuse again, emphasizing: "This time the task is obviously another conspiracy: in addition to the super-level curse spirit itself is difficult to deal with, I also have to deal with it." I'm worried that Rotten Orange will engage in some black-box operations, just to attack you."

"We are in the open, and they are in the dark. The methods behind the scenes are the most difficult to guard against; and if you can have one more hole card, you can gain an advantage in innate intelligence, and the chance of being safe and sound will be greater."

It's a pity that I was still too young during the DK period. Not only did I not reach the peak of my strength, but I still didn't have enough control over the Wutiao family. In the eyes?

Alas, but it's true, if it was in front of the 28-year-old him, those guys would never have set up such a disgusting mess, and even regarded him as one of the pawns...

Gojo Satoshi curled his lips indistinctly.

If it weren't for the fear of faults, the currently completed system in the magic world would collapse in an instant, and I really want to kill them all.

"..."

Kandu Rin lowered his eyes and listened to Gojo Satoru's words in silence.

What the senior said is quite right, besides the "Breakthrough Art", he really needs more hole cards to enhance his strength, so that he can survive this mission safely.

It's ironic...

Who would have thought that, as a magician with a "just standpoint", the biggest danger he faces is not the magic spirit, but the backstab from the high-level people in the magic world behind him?

Kanto Rin thought without emotion in his heart, his eyes fixed on the snow-white wooden box, and after thinking for a long time, he finally withdrew the hand that was handed to Gojo Satoru, with a solemn tone: "Understood, I will Temporarily borrowed "jade ruler" as a weapon. "

He specially emphasized the words "this time" and "temporarily borrowed", pursed his lower lip, and then added: "Senior Wutiao has thought a lot about me, and I really deserve it... If in the future, Senior needs me I will do my best to repay the care of seniors."

Kanto Rin promised very seriously, Gojo Gojo was stunned, and his eyes lit up immediately.

"Really? Is this Xiao Lin agreeing to my request?"

"Ah, of course," Kanto Rin tilted his head. He didn't know why he was so excited, but he still nodded affirmatively. "No matter what the senior wishes, I will try my best to fulfill them!"

Whoa!Pie in the sky!There is such a good thing!

Gojo Gojo was overjoyed, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, he could only pretend to cough and said in a warm voice, "Well, Xiao Lin is really a good boy who knows how to repay his kindness."

Kanto Rin smiled shyly, looking at the usual expression on Gojo Satoru's face, but couldn't help muttering quietly in his heart:

Strange, why do you suddenly feel a chill on your back... as if you have sold yourself?
