Cursed Spirit Manipulation

Curse Manipulation is a type of technique where the user can summon and manipulate naturally formed cursed spirits for a desired purpose or purposes. The curse manipulation user cannot create curses, but instead relies on a pool of curses they capture. Known possessors of this technique are Suguru Geto and an unknown individual that is currently possessing Suguro Geto's body.

Description
Curse manipulation requires that a sorcerer capture, exorcise or purify, and then store and collect the curses they wish to use. The sorcerer first must exorcise or purify the curse by defeating it. Once the curse is defeated, the sorcerer forms a black ball in their palm, which sucks in the curse. They then orally consume the ball through their mouth. The curse manipulation user can then summon and control this curse at will.

Strengths

 * The user is able to use a variety of different curses, making them incredibly versatile in all areas of combat.
 * Given that the only prerequisite for the technique is that the sorcerer must exorcise and then consume the curse, provided the sorcerer sufficiently outranks the curse, they can take on a curse with virtually no conditions.
 * There appears to be no limit on the amount of curses a curse manipulation user can collect. The maximum amount seen stored is 4,461.

Weaknesses

 * The collection process is disgusting, as the black ball containing the curse is said to taste like a rag used to wipe up vomit.
 * Where there is no significant rank difference between the curse consumed and the sorcerer consuming it, the sorcerer may have to take on conditions of some form in order to obtain the curse. It is unclear what these conditions are or how they form.
 * The curse manipulation user can only consume and manipulate naturally forming curses, not any curses created by other sorcerer's cursed technique, for example like shikigami.

Side Effects

 * The cursed energy of Curse Manipulation users is markedly different from other sorcerers. It is theorised this is due to the cursed energy of the various different curses they have consumed, but no further evidence has been provided to support this.
 * It is unclear what happens to the curses collected by a curse manipulation user when that user dies.
