Because Eichi's actions were too swift, when the Jujutsu Headquarters began to reach for the Tokyo Branch, they found that all the important positions had already been filled.
The new faction, led by Artoria, had already completed the reorganization of the Tokyo Branch.
This greatly angered the Old geezers of the Jujutsu Headquarters, who directly pressured the Tokyo Branch, accusing it of dismissing and appointing personnel without reporting to the Jujutsu Headquarters.
They accused the Tokyo Branch of forming a clique and undermining unity... However, Artoria fended off all these petty tricks with various official statements.
Artoria had governed a country before and possessed strong leadership skills.
Furthermore, she and Eichi had started working with the Tokyo Branch several years ago, understanding its operations.
This allowed them to complete the formation of the new Tokyo Branch in just a few days during the Tokyo Branch's interim period and forge this new team into an impenetrable force.
Do you dare to harbor ill intentions?
Do you really think there are no royal fans in the Tokyo Branch?
This made the Old geezers, who had finally agreed on how to divide the Tokyo Branch after a period of bickering, so furious that their beards twisted.
Previously, when there was a shortage of staff, they were afraid to come because they feared the Tokyo Branch would be attacked by Tomie again.
Now that everything was over, they immediately jumped out to claim the spoils.
One could only say they dreamed beautifully; they should dream on.
Seeing that Artoria was completely unwilling to concede more positions, the Jujutsu Headquarters began to make accusations and exert pressure.
They pressured Artoria, pointing out that even with her as the interim commander of the Tokyo Branch, incidents like the attack on Tokyo Jujutsu High by Tomie still occurred.
Upon seeing this, Eichi exclaimed, "Alright, alright, so this is how we're playing, huh? Then let's all go down together."
Then Eichi directly tore off the roof.
What is Tokyo Jujutsu High's greatest defensive measure?
It is the barrier.
Who set up Tokyo Jujutsu High's barrier?
It was Tengen.
You want to make an issue of Tokyo Jujutsu High being invaded, right? Then I'll drag Tengen down too. Her barrier didn't serve its purpose, so shouldn't she also be punished?
The next day, the Jujutsu Headquarters received a message from Tengen.
Upholding her personality as a thousand-year-old shut-in, Tengen's message to the Jujutsu Headquarters was very brief.
It could basically be summarized with a question mark.
Then the Old geezers of the Jujutsu Headquarters felt completely numb.
You say, if you had just honestly given up a few positions, everyone could have prospered in harmony, and it's not like I wouldn't have left you a drop of soup.
Was this matter really worth bringing to the attention of that Old Ancestor?
Although Tengen did not hold a position in the Jujutsu World, no one dared to disrespect her.
The barrier covering the entire island nation was right there.
That was the foundation of their prosperity and stable status.
Once the barrier had problems, the island nation would become like other foreign countries, where Jujutsu phenomena are rare, and Cursed Spirits and Jujutsu Sorcerers are extremely scarce.
What would they use to collect protection fees from those politicians and businessmen then?
What would they use to become superior beings with extraordinary power then?
In the end, this matter could only be downplayed and resolved.
The Jujutsu Headquarters could only contend for the positions Eichi deliberately left open... Shoko Ieiri had been quite speechless recently, the reason being that her obviously abnormal classmate insisted on dragging her out to play.
As a treasure of the Jujutsu World, Shoko Ieiri's outings had always been strictly restricted.
Having grown accustomed to this, Shoko Ieiri gradually stopped caring about going out to play.
It's like inviting someone with an average economic level, who goes home every day after work to scroll on their phone and play on their computer, to travel.
Many of them are unwilling to go out and play.
Is the phone no longer appealing, or are games no longer fun? Has the Young Miss not streamed today, or is the online world no longer exciting?
Go traveling?
After paying rent, utilities, food, phone bills, and internet fees from my three thousand-plus monthly salary, then occasionally rewarding myself when I'm tired, and topping up monthly passes for games to spend money on my favorite characters.
How much money do I have left to travel with you?
Moreover, we don't have a system where we can accumulate vacation days and apply for them independently. Why go out during holidays to be squeezed by crowds, just to look at heads?
Although there were some differences, Shoko Ieiri had actually grown accustomed to a homebody lifestyle.
Others lacked money and time; she lacked strength and time.
So, after receiving a few days of vacation due to being attacked by Tomie, Shoko Ieiri immediately slumped in her room like Ge You, enjoying the rare time when she didn't have to bury pressure in her heart.
Bang!
"Sho~ko~! Let's play~"
Watching Gojo Satoru, who had suddenly burst into the female staff dormitory without even knocking, Shoko Ieiri's eyelid twitched involuntarily.
"I refuse."
Still slumped on the sofa, Shoko Ieiri shook the beer bottle in her hand, refusing outright.
"You'll waste away if you're always so listless. Yosh, let me help you cheer up."
With that, Gojo Satoru instantly appeared in front of Shoko Ieiri.
"Wait, what are you doing?"
To Shoko Ieiri's shock, Gojo Satoru grabbed her by the back of her collar and flew out of the dormitory.
That day, Shoko Ieiri, who experienced skydiving and deep-sea diving, felt her heart almost leap out of her body several times.
The next day, Gojo Satoru visited again.
The third day, a note appeared on Shoko Ieiri's door: "Gojo Satoru not allowed in."
Gojo Satoru stroked his chin and looked at it for a few seconds, then pushed the door open.
"Is your Six Eyes broken? Doesn't it say 'Gojo Satoru not allowed in' on the door?"
Shoko Ieiri looked at Gojo Satoru speechlessly.
"Ah, that was about me, huh?"
Gojo Satoru's face was full of innocence.
"I thought it was someone with the same name as me who had offended you. I have a relative named Gojo Ryu; see, it's only one character different, isn't it?"
On this day, Shoko Ieiri and Gojo Satoru ascended Mount Fuji.
The two visited the shrine on Mount Fuji, and Gojo Satoru generously paid a stack of Fukuzawa Yukichi, asking the shrine priest to arrange for Shoko Ieiri to change into a miko outfit and experience miko life for an afternoon.
The shrine priest stated, "Miss Ieiri is naturally suited for the miko profession; I merely acted out of admiration for her talent."
A few more days passed like this, and the notes on Shoko Ieiri's door and windows had changed to: "The Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer born in 1989, currently working as a teacher at the High School, the indeed somewhat handsome Gojo Family Head, Gojo Satoru, is not permitted to enter Shoko Ieiri's room in the High School female staff dormitory through doors, windows, or any other access points. He is prohibited from using Jujutsu outside the room to take Shoko Ieiri out, prohibited from..."
A few days later, Shoko Ieiri, back at work, encountered Artoria.
"How have you been resting lately?"
Artoria asked, looking at Shoko Ieiri's faded dark circles.
"Well... it's been alright, I guess. It would be even better if that Gojo Satoru guy didn't inexplicably go crazy."
The experiences of the past few days were indeed very novel for Shoko Ieiri, and coupled with playing very hard every day, Shoko Ieiri would go straight to sleep upon returning home, so her dark circles had indeed faded quite a bit.
"Oh, that. It's probably because Principal Yaga said a few nights ago, 'Doctor Ieiri has a rare few days off, everyone try not to disturb her and let her enjoy her precious holiday.'"
Artoria recalled for a moment before saying.
"Didn't he hear 'do not disturb me'?"
Shoko Ieiri's mouth twitched.
"He probably only heard 'let you enjoy your precious holiday'."
"It was indeed quite precious."
Shoko Ieiri's tone was helpless, but the corners of her mouth unconsciously curved upwards.
