Meanwhile, just as Lorien was walking around the house deciding to explore it before heading to bed, the Jujutsu Sorcerers in Tokyo were going crazy, after all, their profession has always been a hidden one, and secrecy is one of their main core principles.

However, the thing that happened today touched that bottom line which predictably caused a strong reaction from the higher-ups.

Normal people may not have been able to perceive the immense amount of energy that was released, at most, they'll feel some pressure pressing over them.

However, this is not the case for Jujutsu Sorcerers as the moment Lorien flared up his energy, almost every sorcerer in Tokyo felt it.

So now, with the sudden emergence of such a large amount of energy that even caused an effect visible to normal people, one could easily guess what'll happen next.

Truthfully, If it were just the energy, the higher-ups wouldn't have had that big of a reaction, at most, they would order people to conduct a normal investigation, however, the Aurora that appeared really touched their nerves.

Not to mention that such a thing happening right next to their 'lair' was a bit provoking.

"Did they find where it originated from?!"

"Only the approximate location."

"It only lasted for a few minutes, so that's to be expected!"

"That energy was quite strong, it's just that...."

"That was not cursed energy, it felt closer to positive energy."

"No, It felt more than that!"

"Send everyone available to investigate, once the source is found, 1st-grade sorcerers should take over."

"Where is Gojo!"

"Not in Tokyo at the moment..."

"Humpth, Just when we need him!!"

"She's in Tokyo right now..."

"Right! Then send her! she should be very interested in such a thing anyways!"

"Let's contact her right now."

"I agree."

"Approved."

Meanwhile, just as the sorcerers were quickly organizing themselves, Lorien could be seen standing in the kitchen next to a table.

He had just finished exploring the place and is now preparing a small snack to eat before going to bed.

This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.

As for paying attention to what the sorcerers were doing?

He cared about that as much as he cared about the health negatives of eating before going to bed.

Basically zero fucks.

After all, considering all the weird techniques and treasures those guys have, he knew that finding him is just a matter of time, so he didn't bother thinking about it; Not to mention that Lorien didn't want to hide in the first place.

Besides, when they find him, he'll be able to instantly detect them using his 'Divine Sense', so there is no such thing as a surprise factor.

The moment anyone enters a 1124 meters radius of him, he'll be able to detect it.

Moreover, this detection can't be fooled or tricked as Lorien doesn't just use such things as energy levels or Aura to detect people's strengths, those are just the basics.

Rather, his perception is mostly based on something that comes with his reality-warping power which is his perception of how hard things are to warp.

For example, after awakening his ability, Lorien perceived everything other than living beings as 'mud' which is very easy to alter.

However, even this 'mud' has grades, as the stronger it is, the harder warping it becomes; A normal Iron lump simply can't compare to Vibranium.

And this is exactly what Lorien's perception is primarily based on, as the moment someone enters his perception range, he could feel how hard it would be to use his power to affect them.

Lorien may still not be able to directly alter living being, at least not maliciously, however, he could still perceive the difference in strength between individuals based on that perception.

And so, like that, Lorien can easily detect when someone strong gets close to him; Even if someone like Toji tries to get close, he could still instantly feel his presence.

It's just that Lorien truly didn't care much about this now as his train of thoughts traveled to something he had previously ignored.

'The techniques those guys have, I should find some time to go and analyze them.'

'However, considering their views on things and how they kept a monopoly over cursed techniques for all those years, trading with them will be nigh impossible.'

'I might have to force my way this time, after all, the higher-ups here are very different from Kagaya in demon slayer who didn't care about power, they mostly care about their interests and how to strengthen their rights.'

'Asking them to trade techniques to outsiders is simply outrageous.'

'I mean, they held such control of the techniques and abilities that even the ones that I got in Tunisia were either the public and simple ones, newly made ones, ones innately born from jujutsu sorcerers and then recorded, or just weak copies made after observing the original techniques.'

'Even the barrier techniques were just copies, the only reason they are now equal to the original if not better is that I always use my power to further analyze and improve the techniques after learning them.'

'Tsk, it's truly a miracle that Leila was able to reach Special Grade Level, Sarrah was only able to reach Semi-special Grade with my help, as for the others, they are only grade one.'

'However, in a true battle of the same level, they would most likely get overwhelmed because of the differences in skills and techniques with Leila being an exception because of her weird ability.'

'But this may not stay true for long as I provided them with [Blank Techniques] and improved the techniques there, now, with enough time, that place will also become a new capital of Jujutsu Sorcerers.'

Taking some Nutella and spreading it on his bread alongside some butter, Lorien couldn't help but think about the future of Japan.

'Brain dude, Culling games, and a golden era...'

'Really, trying to force evolution through such means, quite the inferior method.'

'However, their plan happens to be in conflict with mine as such chaos is bad for business! Trees won't be planted and won't be able to propagate.'

Thinking of this, Lorien's eyes narrowed slightly as a smile appeared on his face.

'It seems that I have to pay them a visit, not to mention that I don't like seeing such a large number of people dying.'

'I may not be a good guy, but I am not a bad guy either, so all things considered, I am not on brain's side.'

'However, this also doesn't mean that I am on Sorcerer's side either as I still want those techniques!'

'HAHAHA, I don't care anymore, let's let things progress naturally, I just hope that it provides me with some fun!'
