Chapter 47

Kirihara Akaya knew he would suffer a massive hemorrhage, but he had no idea these people could eat so much. Goodbye, new game console this month; goodbye, new manga; goodbye, delicious snacks... See you next month.

He was able to walk out of the ramen shop unharmed thanks to the honest, kind, and caring senior Jackal. Without him, he probably would have been forced to wash dishes in the shop by those three.

Rokudo Mukuro looked at Kirihara Akaya, who seemed utterly hopeless, and found it somewhat amusing. He took Gojo Satoru and Natsuyu Suke back to his place, sent the others away, and only left the seaweed who had come with him.

The two high school students behind me were even more childish than elementary school students. They bumped into each other, and soon they were arm in arm, chatting and laughing together.

Rokudo Mukuro couldn't help but sigh. He thought he was here for a vacation, but it turned into a supernatural experience in an instant.

Kirihara Akaya's usually goofy face showed a rare hint of melancholy. "Rokudo-senpai, do you think Captain Yukimura's illness can be cured?"

Rokudo Mukuro had heard the name Yukimura Seiichi countless times from Kirihara Akaya. Elegant and beautiful, kind and approachable, a great tennis player, the best captain at Rikkai University—labels were cascading down his shoulders one after another.

He is both capable and approachable, making him a popular leader.

A thought suddenly popped into Rokudo Mukuro's mind...

A mischievous glint flashed in his eyes, then he smiled and comforted him, "You'll know what's going on when you go see for yourself tomorrow."

"...Even if the illness isn't caused by a cursed spirit, I might still be able to help you."

Kirihara Akaya's eyes widened in surprise, his puppy-dog eyes glistening as he looked at him. "Really?!"

Rokudo Mukuro nodded firmly, "Really."

Two clueless kids, completely oblivious to the atmosphere, squeezed right between the two.

Gojo Satoru: "What are you talking about?"

Rokudo Mukuro smiled. "It's nothing."

"Wow, I knew you were up to no good the moment I saw it." Gojo Satoru smirked, then put his arm around Xia Youjie's shoulder. "Jie, I used to think your bangs were super weird, and they still are, and that bun too..."

Veins were bulging on Xia Youjie's forehead and fists. "Wu, want to fight?"

"Hey, let me finish what I have to say." Wu Tiao Wu's small round sunglasses slipped down slightly, revealing his big, amber eyes that looked aggrieved. Xia Youjie immediately softened.

"Go ahead and tell me. I hope you can say something that will make me happy."

“...But I just discovered today that someone has an even weirder hairstyle than you,” he pointed slyly at Rokudo Mukuro, “Look, he’s wearing a pineapple on his head.”

It didn't matter whether Xia Youjie was happy or not; what mattered was that Rokudo Mukuro was so angry that the numbers in his right eye were jumping around wildly. He discovered that this Gojo Satoru had many similarities to Byakuran, but his strength far surpassed Byakuran's, whether it was his defensive ability or his ability to attract hatred.

Although he looks like a delinquent now, Natsumi Yuuki was indeed a good student before he met Gojo Satoru. He glanced at Rokudo Mukuro's hairstyle without looking for any trace.

The fox-like eyes narrowed slightly; it really was true.

No, no, he can't show it. Wu has already been very rude. If he shows it again, Rokudo-kun will definitely explode on the spot.

"Satoru, you're being very rude," he said to Gojo Satoru in a mocking tone.

Gojo Satoru puffed out his cheeks. This weird bangs! He clearly thought the same thing, but now he's putting on such a serious act. Humph! Oh well, what can I do? He's my best friend. As long as he buys me some Kikufuku later, Satoru-sama will mercifully forgive him.

Rokudo Mukuro gritted his teeth. "Gojo-kun, I've been wanting to ask you this before. It's already late at night, why are you still wearing sunglasses? Are you trying to pretend to be blind and gain sympathy?"

Gojo Satoru pushed up his slightly slipping round sunglasses. "Of course not. What do you mean by pretending to be blind to gain sympathy? I'm still the most handsome man in the world even with sunglasses on." He tilted his head slightly, giving off an expression that said, "All you mortals should worship me."

Rokudo Mukuro had already deduced from their conversation that Gojo Satoru's abilities partly came from his eyes, so he asked that question on purpose.

"Is it, Jie?" To confirm his suspicions, Gojo Satoru specifically asked Natsume Jie.

Xia Youjie, whose cultivation was still insufficient and whose skin was not thick enough, turned his head away with difficulty, trying his best to ignore the eyes that made his heart soften, and resolutely refused to participate in the mutual harm between the two.

“If you want to pretend to be blind, you can try an eye patch.” Rokudo Mukuro ignored him and said to himself, “I think a black eye patch like this would suit you very well.”

As Rokudo Mukuro spoke, he cast a genjutsu. Instantly, the small round sunglasses on Gojo Satoru's nose disappeared from everyone's sight, replaced by a black eyepatch with a large skull in place of the eyes. Regardless of the quality of the eyepatch, its design was undeniably stylish.

The blindfold was so large that it completely covered his eyes, and his originally soft, slightly upturned hair stood on end because of it.

One glance and you feel something's off; the once youthful and handsome young man suddenly looks strange.

Xia Youjie looked at the drastically changed Gojo Satoru and chuckled, as if trying to hold it in, but ultimately couldn't. After examining him closely, he burst into laughter, "Hahaha... Satoru, do you know what you look like now?"

Gojo Satoru was completely bewildered. He could sense something was off about himself, but the small round sunglasses on his nose were still there. Why was Ke Jie laughing like that?

Rokudo Mukuro asked very considerately, "Would you like to see the new look I designed for you, Gojo-kun?"

Looking at Xia Youjie, who was laughing so hard he was bent over, and the malicious Rokudo Mukuro in front of him, Gojo Satoru felt a curiosity tickling him like a cat's claws. With his handsome face that had captivated Xia Youjie, he would be the most handsome no matter how he dressed up. He was very confident in his looks.

When Rokudo Mukuro conjured a mirror for him, he was still marveling at the convenience of Rokudo Mukuro's illusions.

When his reflection appeared in the mirror, he was dumbfounded. His upper face was completely covered by an eye mask, with only two huge skulls standing out. His once smooth hair was now sticking up on his head.

The exposed facial features are sharp and angular, making it clear that the face under the eye mask is definitely not bad, but Gojo Satoru cannot accept it!

"Ugh! I don't want it to be like that."

Xia Youjie clutched his stomach with one hand and pointed at Gojo Satoru with the other, unable to hide his smile. "Satoru, you look like a badminton shuttlecock, a fashionable one with a skull on it~"

As he spoke, he took out his phone and quickly took pictures to commemorate Wu's embarrassing past, making sure to capture it all from every angle.

Facing Xia Youjie's phone camera, Wu Tiao Wu instinctively struck a pose, hoping to capture his most handsome image in Xia Youjie's phone album.

"Does Jay think I look fashionable? But no matter how I look, not a single eye is visible."

"Change back right now!" Gojo Satoru grabbed a handful of hair. Trying to act cute like this with Guy would definitely halve the success rate, but would greatly increase the chances of making Guy laugh.

Xia Youjie suppressed a laugh and said, "Wu, you can keep this pose a little longer."

Gojo Satoru tilted his head. "That's fine, but, Jetsu, you'll have to wear the same eye patch as me."

As he spoke, he moved closer to Xia Youjie, his face, which was completely covered, constantly pressing against Xia's shoulder.

Xia Youjie shoved him away without hesitation. Before, seeing those big, pale blue eyes would always soften his heart; after all, who doesn't love a big, fluffy white cat with blue eyes? Now, he's just a walking badminton shuttlecock.

"Come on, come on." Gojo Satoru said to Natsuyu Jie in a coquettish tone, mimicking a high school girl.

Xia Youjie refused righteously and firmly.

"Rokudo-kun, quickly use your magic to put the same eye patch on him too."

Rokudo Mukuro looked at the two huddled together. "Kufufu... I refuse." He used genjutsu to make Gojo Satoru unhappy, not to add spice to their lives. Faced with these two childish people, he felt completely superfluous.

With a slight twitch of his fingers, Gojo Satoru instantly returned to normal. Then, he turned and left with Kirihara Akaya. "Just close friends, huh? It's like nobody doesn't have that. He has so many...colleagues in the Vongola, has he ever told anyone else?" Who are these two trying to impress?

...

When the group arrived home, Kirihara Akane politely said goodbye to them, and before leaving, he glanced at Rokudo Mukuro with great concern.

I hope they don't fight.

Upon entering the house, Rokudo Mukuro casually said to them, "The house is very big, and there are many rooms. Apart from my bedroom, you can choose whichever you like."

As he spoke, he opened the refrigerator, took out some chocolate, and started eating.

Gojo Satoru, like a cat patrolling its territory, looked around and then came over, asking, "Do you have Kikufuku?"

"No." The refrigerator was full of chocolate, leaving no room for anything else.

Gojo Satoru: "Ah, I want to eat Xijiufu!"

Rokudo Mukuro: "Didn't you just eat a lot of ramen?" Moreover, this person's appetite is astonishing, causing Kirihara Akaya to bleed profusely, and he contributed a great deal to this.

While at the ramen shop, Gojo Satoru got into a playful mood and challenged Kirihara Akaya to a ramen-eating contest. As expected, Gojo Satoru, the strongest ramen eater, was completely outmatched. Although he ate a lot, finishing a bowl of ramen in three minutes was still quite a challenge.

Unable to accept it for a while, he shouted "Another bowl, please!" to the boss many times, turning his grief into appetite.

Gojo Satoru retorted confidently, "Main dishes and desserts don't go in the same stomach. For example, why can you still eat chocolate right now?"

Rokudo Mukuro thought about it for a moment and it seemed to make sense. Staple food is staple food, and chocolate is chocolate.

Xia Youjie quickly interrupted Wu Tiaowu's nonsense and said meaningfully, "Alright, Wu, you'll receive your reward after you finish the mission tomorrow."

"Okay then..."

Regaining his composure, Rokudo Mukuro pointed to the other empty rooms. "These rooms are all empty. Which one would you like to choose?"

Xia Youjie politely thanked him, "Thank you for your trouble, Six Paths Lord. Wu and I can share a room."

Living in another world, they had no money and were not picky at all.
