Chapter 130 - Chapter 130: The Current Strength of Miyauchi Hikage

Facts have proven that when Yellow Temperance disguised itself as a vengeful spirit and followed behind Miyauchi Hikage, although ordinary people still couldn't see it, it could still be detected in the eyes of a Jujutsu Sorcerer like Nanami Kento.

But if Yellow Temperance was allowed to cover Miyauchi Hikage's body in a materialized form for disguise, then Nanami Kento couldn't detect it at all.

From a distance, he watched as Nanami Kento casually landed a punch on the 7:3 point of the vengeful spirit disguised by the fragment of Yellow Temperance, and the disguised spirit immediately collapsed and disintegrated just like a real one.

Miyauchi Hikage knew that this was his Innate Technique.

The Ratio Technique.

It divides the length of the target into equal parts, and according to Nanami Kento's will, can arbitrarily create a weak point at the 7:3 position in a certain area.

Height, arms, torso, head—as long as that point is hit in this 7:3 area, it can cause critical damage.

It is also effective against non-living objects.

It looked somewhat similar to the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

Both were abilities that required the user to hit a specific position on the enemy.

However, the Lines or Points of Death seen by the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception could cause instant death upon being touched.

But the damage caused by the Ratio Technique was just a critical attack close to true damage and could not achieve a decisive effect.

Most importantly, even the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception would often encounter situations where they couldn't hit the person, let alone the Ratio Technique.

"Even if he learns Domain Expansion, and relies on the sure-hit effect that comes with it to improve his efficiency in clearing out small fry, for those enemies who have ways to deal with a Domain, he still has to play close combat with people."

Miyauchi Hikage sighed with emotion in his heart about Nanami Kento's ability.

Although he was indeed a very reliable adult and did have many highlight moments in the plot.

But a Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer was probably his limit.

Unless she could, like Ryougi Shiki, develop the Ratio Technique to the extent that it could affect space and even concepts, perhaps then she would have a chance to become a Special Grade Sorcerer.

"With the buffs from the Pure-Yang Body and Hamon, my current physical fitness is definitely above Nanami Kento's. If I wrap my body with Yellow Temperance and Hamon, the Ratio Technique would probably have a hard time breaking through my defense."

This was Miyauchi Hikage's thought after observing the exorcism methods of those spirit mediums and Nanami Kento from a medium distance through the name spell, and then having a close encounter with Nanami Kento, personally feeling the fragment of Yellow Temperance being defeated by his normal attack.

The bonus from the Pure-Yang Body plus Hamon was far greater than 1+1.

Even if the Ultimate Lifeform Kars were to appear in front of him now, he didn't think his own ripple would be weaker than his.

One could say that although his only means of attack now was Hamon, just by relying on his already perfected Hamon and his own physical fitness, in the Jujutsu world, he would be at the level of a Grade 1 Sorcerer.

This didn't even count the suppressive ability of the Pure-Yang Body against yin and filth. If this anti-ghost special attack were to be added, reaching Special Grade would probably be a sure thing.

"I wonder how I compare to those Jujutsu Sorcerers with a 'Heavenly Restriction', who trade their cursed energy for physical strength."

Just like Fushiguro Tōji from Jujutsu Kaisen, who traded zero cursed energy for the strongest physical body.

Just by relying on his physical fitness and cursed tools, he had almost completed a solo kill on Gojo Satoru.

Even when facing a fully awakened Gojo Satoru, he had a chance to escape, but he had given it up himself.

However, the harvest tonight was already quite good.

He had met Nanami Kento, learned his own approximate strength, and confirmed the concealment effect of his Stand.

"The only pity is that the paranormal videos will probably have to be stopped. I'll have to find something else for Itou Kaiji to do."

Muttering this, Miyauchi Hikage turned and silently walked towards his own home.

Yellow Temperance had lost a small fragment. Although it wouldn't cause any damage to the main body or himself, he should still go back and feed it some more food to let it recover quickly.

...

The next day after school, Miyauchi Hikage told Shiina Mashiro and Miyauchi Hikari in advance that he wouldn't be going to Mahiru's house for dinner today.

After having a showdown with Shiina Mashiro, Miyauchi Hikage's visits to her house had also become more frequent.

Of course, he wasn't as lazy as Mashiro and Hikari, who would just sit on the side and wait for food to be delivered to their mouths. He would also help out and make some of his own home-cooked dishes.

This kind of life, on the whole, was still quite comfortable.

Except when he occasionally ran into Kasumigaoka Utaha at school, she would sometimes cast a suspicious look at him—not suspecting that he was the mysterious person, but suspecting that he might be trying to get with both sisters.

After all, every time Kasumigaoka Utaha went to find Shiina Mashiro to discuss something, Mashiro would tell her to go and discuss it with Miyauchi Hikage directly.

And according to Shinomiya Kaguya's observation, sometimes Miyauchi Hikage would even go to the market to buy groceries with that Shiina Mahiru, and the two of them looked quite harmonious.

However, Kasumigaoka Utaha's focus was still on finding the mysterious person. She didn't spend too much thought on him and Shiina Mashiro.

After all, Shiina Mashiro was also a girl who had a diary. Even if she was a little ditzy, she wouldn't be so easily won over by a male passerby supporting character.

In any case, after school, Miyauchi Hikage called Sakakibara Kōichi and Itou Kaiji over to talk about the matter that the videos might not be able to be filmed anymore.

Hearing this, Itou Kaiji, who had originally thought that everything was starting to get better, couldn't quite take it.

After all, watching the video account's followers break through a hundred thousand at lightning speed, and all aspects of the data looking very good, according to this ratio, for every thousand views increased, he could get nearly a thousand yen in revenue.

He also got a share of this revenue.

These past few days, he had often stayed in his old single room, calculating that with six videos a month, and hundreds of thousands of views for each video, he could get at least five or six hundred thousand yen a month.

Although it was still a bit short of the ten-million annual salary that Miyauchi Hikage had painted a grand picture of for him before, they had only just begun and were still in a period of rising popularity. There was clearly still a lot of room for improvement.

Thinking that he could soon move out of this shabby single room, live in the big house he had dreamed of for many years, enjoy the delicious food he had never dared to think of before, and then find a beautiful girlfriend, Itou Kaiji had hummed to himself more than once during his fantasy.

But now, they had only just started. How could they be directly banned by the officials?

"Could it be that some competitor is trying to deliberately mess with us?" Itou Kaiji said his suspicion with dissatisfaction.

Sakakibara Kōichi was more rational, and his inner thoughts were also much more delicate.

"Is it because the content we're filming is too sensitive?"

If it were just a simple case analysis, it probably wouldn't have been warned. But Miyauchi Hikage was indeed a genius.

Relying on some of the scripts he had given in advance, combined with his camera language and soundtrack, and of course, Itou Kaiji's natural reaction to hearing those ghost stories.

In the end, although nothing had happened, it still gave people a feeling that they might run into a ghost at any time.

One could say that although it was just a video, Miyauchi Hikage had indeed captured a bit of the oppressive feeling from the middle part of The Shining.

That was why he had added a reminder at the beginning of each video, "Viewers with a history of heart disease, epilepsy, or mental illness, please do not watch this video."

However, if someone really had some problems because of their video, they would probably have to bear some responsibility for it.

As for the officials coming to find them so quickly, Sakakibara Kōichi also felt it was understandable.

After all, he was most likely one of the creators of the Asahigaoka miracle, an undisputed T0 top-tier influencer on the Japanese internet. It was quite normal for the officials' side to pay more attention to him.

Thinking of this, Sakakibara Kōichi only felt a little regret.

After all, he had finally found something that interested him, only to be warned because it was filmed too well.

He didn't know what Miyauchi Hikage's plans were after this.

And just as Miyauchi Hikage was preparing to continue to paint a grand picture for the two of them, a strange phone call came to his mobile phone, interrupting his train of thought.

After answering the call, Miyauchi Hikage couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Because the voice coming from the other end of the phone was precisely Nanami Kento's.

Miyauchi Hikage whispered to Itou Kaiji and Sakakibara Kōichi that this was a call from the officials' side, and the results of the processing should have been discussed.

And then he greeted the Nanami Kento on the other end of the phone and asked about the final processing result.

It was just that he, who had already been prepared to switch to a new racetrack, had received an unexpected answer from Nanami Kento's side.

The videos could still continue to be filmed, but before each shoot, he needed to report to him once.

It was best if, two days before the shoot, he reported the location of the next video and the specific details of the case to him, and then Nanami Kento would decide whether this video could be filmed based on the case information.

"If you are unwilling to accept, then you can no longer continue to shoot this series of videos."

Miyauchi Hikage listened to the answer from Nanami Kento on the other end of the phone, which had no fluctuation in tone, but his heart couldn't help but waver a little.

He could sense whether Nanami Kento had mentioned his name to anyone today.

Besides calling his parents this morning, he hadn't mentioned his name to anyone else at all.

The so-called decision from the higher-ups was actually completely Nanami Kento's own decision.

After all, a Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer was a mainstay no matter where he was. He could make his own decision on the matter of a video blogger, and it wouldn't attract the attention of the Jujutsu higher-ups at all—

A guy who likes to court death, he had already persuaded him as much as he should have. Since he wouldn't threaten the safety of the hidden world, just let him die on his own.

Anyway, tens of thousands of people in Japan died every year due to supernatural events. It wouldn't make a difference with one more.

In fact, Nanami Kento's side could have indeed directly given a reply of "cannot continue filming" and ended this incident neatly.

But he had still chosen this more troublesome way to solve Miyauchi Hikage's side of the matter.

The so-called reporting was probably that Nanami Kento would help to go to the places where the cases had occurred in advance to confirm the situation inside.

Although he was always talking about how he hated work and trouble, in essence, he was still an old good-guy, wasn't he?

Miyauchi Hikage muttered to himself. It seemed his acting last night was too good and had completely fooled Nanami Kento.

Now in his heart, he should be a young man with a firm ideal and indeed some talent.

Perhaps he also had a little talent in cultivation, so he wanted to use this method to maintain contact between the two, to see if he should pull him into the hidden world?

Miyauchi Hikage judged.

He was even a little embarrassed by this.

As a return gift for this favor, at that time, if the Shibuya Incident still happened, then he would just find a way to save his life.

Or if there was a chance in the future, he could help him awaken a Domain, so he wouldn't just have to take a beating in someone else's Domain.

Or, he could find a way to pull Nanami Kento into his team in the future?

Of course, that would have to wait for a more natural opportunity.

Thinking this, Miyauchi Hikage also continued to maintain his acting and expressed his gratitude to the Nanami Kento on the other end of the phone.

After agreeing on the time for their next meeting to discuss the matter of filming the video further, Nanami Kento hung up the phone.

Miyauchi Hikage recorded Nanami Kento's private number.

"It seems that our team can be maintained for the time being. It's just that in the future, we'll have to add a reminder at the beginning of the video, 'The story is purely fictional, please do not imitate'."

Although there was an additional reporting process that sounded a bit strange, since the video could continue to be filmed, for Itou Kaiji and Sakakibara Kōichi, it was still a matter worth celebrating.

After the "break-up dinner" turned into a celebration banquet, by the time Miyauchi Hikage returned home today, it was already eight or nine o'clock at night.

He casually took the plot of Oshi no Ko that he had drawn a few days ago and shared a bit of Aqua's "world-shocking wisdom" with the girls who had the diary, giving them some shock from the great Aka-sensei.

He didn't know what Kaguya-sama and Hoshino Ai would think after seeing this plot.

"But this plot still lacks a bit of flavor compared to the final battle of Jujutsu Kaisen. It should be very difficult for a work that surpasses the level of abstraction of Jujutsu Kaisen to appear in a short period of time."

After leaving enough room for imagination for everyone in the diary, Miyauchi Hikage then continued to edit his video.

He himself had not realized that today was also the full month anniversary of him obtaining the diary. He had already written in this diary for a whole month.
