My biological sister is Rika, the best sister in the world. She’s perfect in every way—looks, personality—and has always looked after me since I was little. Except for that year when she was ...
Chapter 12 Chapter 12 Positioning? ...
Eri Kimoto looked around without any concealment.
The house we live in now is not big and there is no shortage of furniture. The layout is similar to my current house. It is quiet and clean.
Fushiguro Megumi followed her gaze and looked around. Finally, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "What are you looking for?"
"Looking for traces of your sister." Qi Ben Eri said, "I heard you have a sister too."
When this topic was mentioned, Fushiguro Megumi's expression remained calm, but his frown showed that the boy was not so calm either. He stood up and stared at her quietly.
"Oh, sorry, I forgot to mention that I also have a sister."
Qi Ben Eri blinked, stared at him straight, and said almost word by word: "She is the best sister in the world. She is in Tokyo now."
...What the hell, why does he have this childish sense of showing off and being wary at the same time? Could this guy be a sister complex?
Fushiguro Megumi's mouth twitched, and she nodded perfunctorily, "Tsu Miki's things have been put away. She's in the hospital and hasn't woken up yet."
Eri Kimoto actually wanted to ask why, but the boy looked like he would not speak again, which made her feel a little sorry. She lowered her eyes and wondered why her sisters always encountered accidents. It was really sad.
.
"By the way, have you ever been on a mission?"
After sitting for a while, Qi Ben Eri asked curiously, "I heard from Gojo Satoru that the sorcerer seems to be a profession that is extremely short of people."
"Even students currently attending technical colleges have to work part-time," Norimoto Eri raised an eyebrow. "You've done exorcisms before, haven't you? You were raised by Gojo Satoru, after all."
...I really want to complain.
There are so many things I want to complain about Megumi Fushiguro’s last half sentence!
The young man finally calmed down and spoke slowly and calmly: "Gojo-sensei took me to...an internship? I guess I was doing an internship."
Thinking of the experience of being taken out for internship by that silver-haired man, Fushiguro Megumi's eyes became even more dead, and she said in an almost serene tone, "I was taken out on a mission with him."
Although Eri Qimoto was puzzled by his current expression, when she thought about the behavior of that bastard, the doubts immediately disappeared.
"That's great! I heard the reward is quite high," Eri Nori looked away and sighed, "I want to try to exorcise the cursed spirit too."
And she also wanted to test her current strength. She already knew that the strength here was divided into levels, but she didn't know what the specific levels were. The small and not very aggressive curse spirits she had killed before should not be ranked.
My sister is a special class... She is worthy of being my sister QWQ, she is really strong! Eri Kimoto doesn't want to embarrass her sister, she has to climb up anyway,
And most importantly, the top leaders of the magic world still seem to be wary of my sister and that guy.
Speaking of the act of directly capturing Yuuta Otsutsuki and intending to execute him, Eri Kimoto still remembers it deeply in her heart. In short, she doesn't want to let go of any guy who wants to hurt her sister. She will go talk to them when she becomes a strong and capable person. Before that, she really needs to improve herself.
Then again, after hearing what Megumi Fushiguro just said about how to get the cursed tool, she felt that she was not the type to do things with bare hands.
"Does it have to be a cursed tool?"
Eri Kimoto asked curiously, "Ordinary weapons can't harm cursed spirits, right?"
Fushiguro Megumi patiently answered: "Ordinary weapons will do, they just need to be imbued with cursed energy—"
As they were saying this, a bell rang. The two paused, and Eri Qimoto lowered her head and reached into her purse.
Seeing the caller ID was "Dog", Qi Ben Eri's face suddenly darkened.
Her tone was as cold as her expression: "..Why did he call me?"
Then, seeing Fushiguro Megumi's puzzled expression, she quickly got angry and said, "He and I are not familiar with each other! We are not the kind of people who can call each other!"
Megumi Fushiguro found it funny again, and wondered in her heart what Gojo Satoru had done to her that made him so angry. And even though she said that, she had clearly saved Gojo Satoru's number, even though his name was Dog Thing.
Qi Ben Eri gritted her teeth and finally answered the phone in a bad mood.
"Moshi Moshi~"
"Eri-chan~Are you with Kei now?" asked Gojo Satoru on the other end of the phone.
Qi Ben Eri had no expression on her face: "Yeah."
"Then turn on the hands-free mode!"
So Eri Norimoto turned on the speakerphone with a sour face, and now even Megumi Fushiguro could hear the annoying tone!
"Megumi~ What are you two doing together?"
"You guys are getting along so well, did you ever fight? Who won?"
“Megumin, you won’t lose to Eri, will you? Hahahahahaha!!”
Among those with expressionless faces was Megumi Fushiguro: “…”
Neither of them spoke. Gojo, the teacher on the other end of the phone, even suspected that the signal was bad, without considering that the two of them didn't want to pay attention to him.
"Okay, okay, let's get down to business!"
Gojo Satoru finally returned to normal (?), but not quite normal.
He said in a light, drawn-out tone, "Eri, I think you've learned a lot about the world of curses from Kei. Would you like to go with Gojo-sensei and try to exorcise cursed spirits?"
"?"
Eri Kimoto was shocked, thinking that this guy had finally become a real teacher and was ready to take people on internships, but she also felt that the progress was a bit too fast... However, she was quite interested.
Megumi Fushiguro also felt that the progress was very fast. After all, he had just finished talking to Eri Nori about some basic things.
He knew that Eri Kimoto had just been sent here in a package, and had not even trained in cursed power. She had even just asked him how to attach cursed power to the cursed tool. She didn't seem to be in a condition that could go on a mission directly.
Fushiguro Megumi frowned and asked the man on the other end of the phone, "She hasn't exorcised the cursed spirit yet, right?"
Eri Kimoto glanced at him and thought to herself that she had indeed exorcised some of them before, but they were just smaller ones that weren't very aggressive. Controlling them to break their own necks was also exorcism, wasn't this guy underestimating her a little?
Gojo Satoru on the other end of the phone continued in a cheerful tone, "It's okay, because Gojo-sensei will be taking you there personally!"
"Gojo-sensei is very strong, she won't let you two kids get hurt, and—" Gojo Satoru chuckled and continued, "Megumin, haven't you seen her technique yet?"
Fushiguro Megumi met her eyes again, and she said, "Do you want to see it? I can show it to you right now!"
Instinctively sensing something was wrong, Fushiguro Megumi looked away: "...next time, for sure."
"By the way, Eri," Gojo Satoru suddenly looked at her, his tone even happier than before.
"Yu Tai-kun just took out a big guy. He's very strong."
“....”
“....”
"I saved two children and exorcised a huge cursed spirit."
"Well done, Yuuta-kun! You and Rika-chan had a perfect match!"
Fushiguro Megumi keenly sensed the girl's unstable aura beside him. He glanced sideways and found that Norimoto's face was even gloomier than when she faced Gojo Satoru's rude words just now.
It was as if a clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds and turned into a cloudy sky with low pressure. The long eyelashes cast a shadow under the eyes, and the pair of pigeon-blood red eyes also darkened and became unclear.
"With my sister..."
Qi Ben Eri's breathing was rapid, and she had completely missed the point. "How can that guy and my sister play such a perfect match?! I am the one who can play with my sister perfectly and have a mutual understanding, you bastard!"
Fushiguro Megumi: “.”
..In short, this guy must be a sister complex, the smell is really too strong.
But who are these Yuuta-kun and Rika-chan that Gojo-sensei is talking about? Are they the new seniors joining Jujutsu High School? So there are five of them this year? What a great harvest, Megumi Fushiguro thought, distracted.
"..." Gojo Satoru on the other end of the phone was also stuck for a moment: "...Ah, this is not the point, right—"
"Come!"
Her skin was originally fair, and now it was even more red when she was angry. Qi Ben Eri clenched her fists, and her fingertips turned white: "Come quickly! I will prove it to you! And-"
Qi Ben Eri took a deep breath, calmed down, and affirmed herself, almost enunciating each word: "I am also very strong."
Gojo Satoru on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Okay~ Then I'll pick you up from school tomorrow!!!"
"Wow, that's great! Picking up two kids from school~"
Gojo Satoru's tone was even more impressive than before: "I feel like I'm a super reliable adult!"
"I'm so excited! Tomorrow you two will meet a super handsome guy at the school gate—"
Not wanting to hear his voice anymore, Eri Kimoto quickly hung up the phone.
Before she rolled her eyes at her phone in anger, Eri Kimoto looked up at Megumi Fushiguro who had been silent from the beginning.
"So, may I ask Fushiguro-san, what is your strength level? Would you be willing to have an emergency sparring match with me?" she said.
“I’m trying to find my place.”
Megumi Fushiguro: “….”
Hello, is this how you use 'then'?
Is it spinning too fast?!
