"You should ask Gojo Satoru, after all, he's your teacher. That guy would beat me to death if I took you out on my own."
Every time he thought of that sunset on December 24, 2017, he would shudder.
"I agree, it's a good thing that you want to become stronger, Yuta."
Without knowing when, Gojo Satoru had already appeared behind the two.
"Holy crap!? When did you appear?!" The two were startled.
"Don't worry about the details."
Gojo Satoru said with a smile, "Yuta, you can go out whenever you want, and by the way, help this Mr. Miguel repair his rope, after all, it was only played with for a dozen minutes before it was used up."
Miguel: "..."
"Really? Gojo-sensei." Okkotsu Yuta said happily.
"Hey hey hey, you can't be serious, right? Gojo Satoru."
Miguel walked to Gojo Satoru's side and said in a low voice, "He's a Special Grade, you know? Will the higher-ups throw him out so readily?"
"It's nothing, I'll shut those old guys up. If they mind, I'll let their heads live somewhere else."
Gojo Satoru's understatement was like a bombshell in Miguel's ears. He would kill the higher-ups if he wanted to, what kind of person was this?
"Alright, that's it. I won't stop you from wanting to become stronger, Yuta, say goodbye to everyone before you leave whenever you want."
Gojo Satoru waved his hand, put his hands in his pockets and left.
Letting the students want to become stronger on their own was his concept of education, and judging by the exchange match with Kyoto last time.
He could already grasp that power that belonged to him.
Sugawara no Michizane, one of Japan's three great vengeful spirits. He was a super powerful jujutsu sorcerer during his lifetime, and he could also be considered his (Gojo Satoru's) ancestor.
So it wasn't surprising that Yuta possessed such a huge amount of cursed energy.
It could be said that cursing Orimoto Rika into a 『Special Grade Over Cursed Spirit』 was an accident, besides the caster having to possess extremely powerful cursed energy, the one being cursed also had to possess an extremely strong desire, a desire to stay by the caster's side.
It could be completely called a curse where they deeply loved each other. This was what created the 『Special Grade Over Cursed Spirit Orimoto Rika』.
So there was no danger in letting him go out, this was his own power to begin with.
The only thing he couldn't understand was Yuuki, although he had defeated Geto Suguru at the cost of consuming his life force.
But this couldn't deny the fact that he was very strong, and he could already be judged to be a Grade 1 sorcerer.
He just felt that this kid didn't need this thing either, and then sighed, "Sigh, I've already been reduced to the point where I have nothing to do after only half a year, I'll go scout out the freshmen for next year."
...
At night.
Okkotsu Yuta looked at the friends who were sitting at the table eating together, his mouth opened slightly but he didn't know how to open his mouth.
This feeling was very uncomfortable, he didn't want to leave everyone, but he had to leave. No one wanted to be weak all the time, and he was the same.
Yuuki looked at Okkotsu Yuta, who was silent and not eating, and roughly guessed what he was thinking.
He said, "You don't have to worry about anything, Yuta. Just say what you want to say, it's also uncomfortable to keep it in your heart."
"Are you going to leave?"
Zenin Maki said, "If you're going to leave, then just say it frankly, don't drag it out from today to tomorrow, and from tomorrow to the day after tomorrow."
"Leave?"
Panda, Toge, and Megumi looked at each other, and then looked at Okkotsu Yuta.
Shura was burying his head in eating to the side.
"Yes, I've decided to go abroad in two days." Okkotsu Yuta's gaze was always on the bowl, and said:
After this battle of the 『Night Parade of a Hundred Demons』, I knew that I was too weak, which caused you to get hurt.
Although you don't think so, I don't want to grow up under your protection anymore, I'll be going abroad in two days to train with Miguel.
When I come back, I'll definitely stand in front of you with my head held high.
"..."
Everyone was silent for a moment, and Maki said with a smile, "Mm, go do what you want to do."
Panda had a feeling that he was finally seeing his son grow up at this moment, tears flowed from his eyes, and said, "Yuta…, I'll miss you."
Inumaki Toge said, "Me too."
Fushiguro Megumi: "..."
Yuuki: "..."
Panda and Toge turned their heads to look at the silent Fushiguro Megumi and Yuuki, and asked, "Don't you two have anything to say?"
Yuuki rubbed his nose, which was a little sore, and said, "It's too uncomfortable to say it, so I won't."
Fushiguro Megumi: "I… I think it's a good thing that Senior Yuta wants to go out and become stronger."
"Ah, Megumi's heart is so cold. He can't even say a sentimental word about his senior leaving." Panda said faintly.
"That's right, Megumi, you won't have any friends next year if you're like this." Inumaki Toge complained.
Fushiguro Megumi: "..."
"Alright, everyone stop making things difficult for Megumi."
Okkotsu Yuta picked up the drink in his cup with a smile and said, "I'm really very happy that I was able to say my farewell words, so that I didn't have any regrets."
Yuuki raised his cup and said, "After all, this farewell is for a better reunion in the future."
"Come back early, Yuta." Panda raised his cup and said.
"Yeah, we'll miss you." Inumaki Toge raised the cup in his hand.
"Don't give up halfway, or I'll teach you a lesson," Zenin Maki said, and clenched her fist.
"..."
Fushiguro Megumi, who didn't know what to say, raised his cup and shouted cheers.
"Cheers!!"
...
Two days later.
Okkotsu Yuta and Miguel boarded a plane to India, the instructions given by the higher-ups were [Go abroad to carry out a secret mission.]
After everyone said goodbye, they also began to busy themselves with the task of exorcising cursed spirits.
Half a year later…
Mid-June 2018.
Sugisawa Third High School in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture.
"Junior Megumi, I didn't expect that the first mission you're carrying out after entering school will be commanded by me."
"Mm."
Fushiguro Megumi, who was holding his phone, asked, "But what exactly am I supposed to be retrieving so late? It's so mysterious."
"According to what Gojo-sensei, who's on a business trip, said, it seems to be a Special Grade cursed object, placed in a louver box at Sugisawa Third High School."
"Putting a Special Grade cursed object in a school's louver box?! What kind of brain-dead person thought of that?"
Fushiguro Megumi looked at the extremely conspicuous louver box on the grass, and walked over.
"Hahaha, how would I know, I only received the order yesterday. Gojo-sensei threw this mess to me and ran away."
"..."
Fushiguro Megumi opened the louver box, saw that there was nothing inside, and said, "The louver box is empty."
"Huh? Are there other louver boxes in the school?"
Fushiguro Megumi complained, "There's only one louver box in a school, that's common sense, right?"
"..."
"I have things to do right now, I'll go take a look tomorrow, please trouble you to look for it again, Megumi."
"Mm, I understand, goodbye, Yuuki-san."
Fushiguro Megumi looked at the phone in his hand, which had been hung up, and said, "Which brain-dead person put the Special Grade cursed object in the louver box?! And it's lost!?"
...
On the street, Yuuki was sitting by the side of the road, drinking milk tea at this moment. He had to pick up a transfer student today, he just didn't know why this transfer student was coming over so late at night.
He was already 16 years old at this moment, and his childish face had become mature, and his height, which had been 1.7 meters, had grown to 1.75 meters. It was just that he hadn't received any decent missions in the past half a year, but he had traveled all over Japan.
After all, people would also become irritable after spring. The frequency of strange incidents appearing was ridiculously high, and the system had become silent because there were no enemies that were worth looking at.
Ten minutes later.
A girl wearing the Tokyo Jujutsu High uniform stood next to him, and said, "Hello, Senior Yuuki. I'm Himura Mafuyu, a transfer student in the first year this year. It's nice to meet you, I'm very happy to meet you."
"Hello." Yuuki raised his phone, glanced at the girl, who was only a little over 1.6 meters tall.
He asked, "Why did you want to join Jujutsu High? Didn't Principal Yaga tell you that you might die while carrying out missions?"
"Mm, I already knew that last year."
Himura Mafuyu asked with a somewhat red face, "Then Senior Yuuki, why did you want to join Jujutsu High back then?"
"Mm…"
Yuuki thought for a moment and said, "Because I saw a curse, so I had to join. If we don't have the strength to exorcise cursed spirits, then we ourselves are just ants, arbitrarily crushed by curses, I joined back then just to survive."
"What about now?" Himura Mafuyu asked in confusion.
"Now, of course, it's to become stronger in order to protect my comrades."
Yuuki rubbed Himura Mafuyu's head, and said, "Alright, I'll take you back to school to report today, I have things to deal with tomorrow."
"What things? Can I go watch?" The girl's face became even more flushed because of the rubbing.
"Um…"
Yuuki pondered, he still remembered this part of the plot. It seemed that a guy named Itadori ate that Special Grade cursed object, and then became the King of Curses and was sentenced to death.
Fighting him would definitely trigger a system task, he could guarantee that. But he just didn't know if he could beat him, that Megumi guy could run away, but this girl…
Yuuki glanced at her thin arms and legs, and rejected it on the spot. He said, "No, that mission is very dangerous, I don't want you to die as soon as you come."
"Is that so…"
Himura Mafuyu's expression became dejected after learning that she couldn't carry out the mission with her benefactor.
"..."
"Why do I feel like I'm guilty…"
Yuuki supported his forehead. He had gotten used to being with Maki, and thought that all girls were like her, frank and free and easy.
This sudden appearance of someone who could act spoiled made him think that he was at fault for refusing.
