Chapter 1- Skills

[Counter No. 3]

[Skills]

Ryuuji was met with another person this time when the lady was done with her explanation about what Ryuuji was supposed to do in the new world and his purpose of reincarnation.

This time, a tall man with blond hair, wearing a three-piece red and black suit and a matching tie was present before Ryuuji's eyes.

The subject this time, of course, garnered his utmost attention.

Given the world he was reincarnating to, with the addition of Evil fragments, it becomes extremely important for Ryuuji to have a reliable skill set to support his venture into the new world.

The blond man fixed his tie before he began,

"Let's discuss things about your Domain."

Now that's what I call, a way to start things—Ryuuji inwardly muttered and nodded for the man to continue.

The man had a similar whiteboard behind him, on which he flicked the small wooden stick he held in his hand before some words were inscribed on the board.

[Simple Domain.]

"What do you know about Simple Domain?" Hearing the man's query, Ryuuji raised his brows before answering whatever came to his mind.

"A technique passed down the generation of sorcerers, named—'Domain of the Weak' by its creator. I don't know the name of who created it, but he was rather strict about whom he would share this technique with since Simple Domain nullifies the effect of a normal domain's sure hit effect, providing the chanter some time to prepare their retaliation. I have seen Miwa, the swordswoman using the technique, but it didn't seem very useful at that time."

Ryuuji stated whatever was on his mind without a filter. While the application of the technique seemed rather intriguing and potentially strong, it wasn't shown as such, in the show and the manga. Well, up to the point where Ryuuji read.

The blond man nodded, seemingly impressed by his knowledge before he began,

"Well, you are right about that. They nerfed the technique but being a reincarnation you would have a special kind of Simple Domain of yourself...which would be called,"

The man tapped his wand once again on the board before another name replaced the previous title,

[Lost Domain.]

Ryuuji remained silent and allowed the man to describe,

"Lost Domain is an improved version of Simple Domain, where you can create a barrier around yourself to not only nullify the sure hit effect of Domain Expansion but also the effect of a Cursed Tool would no longer be effective within the barrier. The duration of the Lost Domain would depend on your will—which can be strengthened with time."

"Then there is,"

Another name popped up, which spelled,

[Target Lost Domain]

The blond once again started,

"This is an even more complex yet potent version of Lost Domain where you would be able to target a single person or thing, at a time within a certain distance and lock their coordinates to not only nullify their cursed technique, but their cursed energy altogether."

"For example,"

Tapping again on the board, the figure of two figures drawn on the board,

"Let's say this is you, " Pointing at the first body named 'A' on the left, the blondie spoke.

"And this is your adversary." Pointing at 'B' he said.

"Now let's imagine, you conjure Target Lost Domain." As he spoke, a blue circle surrounded 'A', and a thin line extended toward 'B'

"As you can see, the target would be under the effect of Lost Domain where he would lose his Cursed Energy and naturally won't be able to cast any technique as well. Well, you would only be able to do it once a week, and also, it would only last for ten seconds at most."

Hearing the explanation, Ryuuji's most of doubts cleared up, however, he still had some queries, which he didn't back off from asking,

"Umm...doesn't that mean, I would also lose my cursed energy in that particular ten seconds of time? Like I am erecting a barrier of complete curses nullification, so it must affect me as well, no?"

The chain of 'Target Lost Domain' is shared between the two, and as such, it separates them from the real world for merely ten seconds. And for the technique to work, the Lost Domain needs to be entirely devoid of Cursed Energy.

Hearing Ryuuji's query, the blond raised his brows in surprise before praising him, "Not bad, brat...and yeah, you are right. In those ten seconds, you would solely be depending on your physical might."

Ryuuji gulped in slight apprehension.

This technique could work as his secret ace. If people get to know about this technique before a big fight against a main antagonist then surely anyone would be able to kill Ryuuji within those ten seconds.

He would need to keep this technique hidden until it doesn't become utmost necessary.

"Alright then, snap out of it, kid. We have more things to discuss." As the blond man chimed, Ryuuji broke out of his daze before he nodded for the other one to continue.

The next time the blond man tapped his wand, all the drawing and detailing were replaced by three particular words,

[Secret Sword Art]

"It won't be the same as what was described in the Jujutsu Kaisen verse. Rather, the instructors you would be provided with, have their secret sword arts which would help you become one of the finest swordsmen out there. So rejoice."

Ryuuji didn't have a good feeling about this, instructor and training.

While he knew how important it was for him to train and become strong, more so after knowing the functioning of Lost Domain, still...being an otaku, physical labor always terrified him.

"The details would be listed by your instructor so let's not dwell on it for now."

As the blond said he tapped on the board again, before the words, Ryuuji was anticipating the most, popped up,

[Domain Expansion]
