Chapter 98

Rokudo Mukuro sat in the courtyard, enjoying a rare moment of leisure while savoring the new chocolate.

He narrowed his eyes. He had thrown Fran into school so that he could enjoy the influence of knowledge, and now it was much quieter around him.

But the leisurely time didn't last long, and a small figure appeared in front of him over the wall.

Looking at Reborn's dark eyes under the brim of his hat and his slightly serious expression, Rokudo Mukuro knew that Sawada Tsunayoshi was up to something again.

Reborn: "Mukuro, something's happened."

Rokudo Mukuro slowly put the last bit of chocolate into his mouth, picked up a tissue to wipe his hands, and smiled.

He stood up, straightened his clothes, and then said, "Let's go see what stupid thing Sawada Tsunayoshi has done this time."

As soon as the two entered Sawada Tsunayoshi's room, Rokudo Mukuro saw Sawada Tsunayoshi clutching his head and wailing:

"A dream...a dream has become reality?!"

"That really wasn't an illusion...we really encountered a monster!"

Yamamoto Takeshi's expression was blank, his eyes vacant, and he held a baseball bat that could transform into a sword in his hand. After a moment, a smile appeared on his face again. "Don't be afraid, Tsuna. This is quite interesting, hahaha."

Sawada Tsunayoshi: "What's so interesting about this?!"

Meanwhile, Gokudera Hayato, wearing black-rimmed glasses, was hunched over his desk, flipping through various books and frantically scribbling something down, muttering to himself, "Are there really monsters in this world?! Are there aliens?! This is worth investigating—"

His slightly long silver hair was now a bit frizzy.

Upon seeing Rokudo Mukuro walk in, Sawada Tsunayoshi rushed over, his voice filled with obvious despair, "Mukuro! I...we encountered monsters! The same monsters you conjured up with your genjutsu to scare me last time."

He scratched his head, stammering, "But what we saw wasn't an illusion, not something you conjured up. What you conjured up became real. I even dreamed about it before..."

Rokudo Mukuro understood; Sawada Tsunayoshi and the others must have encountered a cursed spirit. The World Consciousness had said that a world fusion would occur later, and it would inform the World Foundation—that is, Sawada Tsunayoshi and the others—about this.

It now seems that Sawada Tsunayoshi did not take the dream about the World Consciousness to heart.

Sawada Tsunayoshi: "Mukuro, what we saw was an illusion, right?" His tone was tinged with a sense of utter despair.

Rokudo Mukuro glanced at him speechlessly. "You tell me."

Sawada Tsunayoshi was utterly defeated. "I sincerely hope it was just an illusion you used to scare me."

Even though his inherited super intuition told him that those things were real, he still wanted to deceive himself for a while.

"Mukuro, you know what those monsters are, right?"

Rokudo Mukuro nodded. "I do know."

All eyes in the room turned to him, and Gokudera Hayato's eyes were filled with a strong thirst for knowledge.

Rokudo Mukuro: "Sawada Tsunayoshi, you should know this too."

Sawada Tsunayoshi clutched his head and shouted, "I don't know!"

He really was just an ordinary middle school student...

"Tsk." Rokudo Mukuro said casually, "The dream you had before was the truth that the world's consciousness wanted to tell you."

Reborn asked a soul-searching question: "Mukuro, how do you know so much?"

Rokudo Mukuro touched the Vongola Ring on his fingertip and smiled meaningfully, "Just lucky. I was conscripted by the World Consciousness and got to experience the thrill of traveling through worlds."

He concealed the secret of his second life and simply and clearly revealed that the world consciousness had sent him to various worlds to serve as a peace ambassador.

Everyone: ...Do you seem like the kind of person who could act as a peace ambassador? The world consciousness seems to have some serious illness...

After a long pause, Sawada Tsunayoshi awkwardly said, "This... is really too unscientific."

Takeshi Yamamoto: "Wow, Mukuro, you're amazing."

Reborn gave Sawada Tsunayoshi a whack on the head, exasperated. "This is perfectly scientific. If you can travel through time and save the world, Mukuro can definitely travel to other worlds and act as a peace ambassador."

Gokudera Hayato's eyes lit up. "So that's how it is. So there are not only parallel worlds, but also other completely different worlds..."

Reborn: "Mukuro, tell us more about that world."

Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory. Some of those monsters that appear out of nowhere are by no means weak.

Rokudo Mukuro: "I don't know much either. I only know that those monsters are called Cursed Spirits, which are born from the negative emotions of humans. Those who can defeat Cursed Spirits are called Spellcasters, and Spellcasters have their own unique organizations and powerful families."

“Cursed spirits can only be destroyed with cursed power, or even with death flames.”

Rokudo Mukuro revealed what he knew.

Reborn nodded knowingly. That was enough; the Vongola intelligence agency would find out the rest.

...

Tokyo Jujutsu High School

Wujiao Wu, Xia Youjie, and Yaga Masamichi, who are about to graduate, sit facing each other.

Xia Youjie said with a smile, "I feel like this summer is unusually leisurely compared to previous years."

In previous years, during the busy summer, sorcerers had almost no time to rest, always traveling all over Japan to exorcise the endless stream of cursed spirits.

But this year, he and Wu, the two strongest, have had time to sit down and have a heart-to-heart talk with their teacher.

Gojou swung his long arm and put it on Xia Youjie's shoulder, saying casually, "Isn't it better to be a little more relaxed? That way, Jie will have time to play games and eat desserts with me."

He winked his eyes, hidden behind his sunglasses, and said in a particularly smug way, "Jay, we're both young people in the prime of our lives, we shouldn't have such a strong class vibe. Night Moth, look at you, you've corrupted Jay!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Moth's fist, the size of a sandbag, landed on his head.

Night Moth Masakado frowned. "According to intelligence, the number of cursed spirits born this year has shown a significant downward trend compared to previous years."

Xia Youjie nudged Wu Tiaowu in the waist with his elbow, "This is a good thing!"

With the number of cursed spirits decreasing, the pressure on sorcerers can be greatly reduced, and the safety of ordinary people can also be guaranteed.

Night Moth's gaze darkened, and he said thoughtfully, "Do you know the specifics?"

Gojo Satoru pursed his lips, leaning most of his weight on Natsumi Yuuki, and lazily replied, "Night Moth~ Asking so many questions and worrying about so many things, be careful you don't turn from a big brother into a balding uncle."

Xia Youjie chimed in, "Wu, don't bring up Ms. Ye'e's sad story, it's very impolite. Ms. Ye'e, would you like to have Shoko take a look at your hair loss?"

Moth Zhengdao's forehead veins throbbed; one day, he would be driven mad by these two little rascals.

He clenched his fists tightly, trying to comfort himself: Don't be angry, what's the harm in getting really angry? These two problem students will just stand in front of his hospital bed and continue to be sarcastic towards him.

"Forget it, you should know what's going on in your hearts."

"By the way, the higher-ups and the powerful families have recently been communicating with a certain force."

Satoru Gojo nodded. "I know, the Vongola. The world's top Mafia organization, the undisputed leader among the mafia alliances..."

Night Moth Masamichi frowned. "This organization is so famous, but why didn't I have any recollection of it before you mentioned it?"

Gojo Satoru and Natsume exchanged a glance. It would be a miracle if they remembered it; this was an effect of the world's merging.

They continued to deceive her, saying, "Ms. Moth, it's normal that you didn't know these things because you were focused on your work before. I didn't know either."

"Moth, you have all looks, but no heart to be a boss."

Night Moth Masamichi rolled his eyes at the two of them. The Vongola family possessed the Dying Will Flame, a fact discovered by the jutsu world. And weren't the flames these two little bastards had shown off recently the genuine Dying Will Flame? And what about all the big moves they'd made lately?

If there's no connection between the two, then he's been a teacher for nothing.

“Wu, Jie, I think you two should get the opportunity to interact with and get to know the Vongola.”

"As far as we know, the Vongola family's Dying Will Flame can also exorcise cursed spirits. If we can reach a cooperation agreement with them, it will be beneficial to the entire world of cursed arts."

Gojo Satoru and Natsume, the two strongest jutsu masters, will be the future leaders of the jutsu world, and it would be the best choice for them to connect with the Vongola Family.

"We understand, Moth Teacher."

...

"Meet and exchange ideas with the representatives of the jutsu world?! No way, I know it's no way, Reborn, can't you find someone else? Or you can go by yourself. I just want to study hard..." Sawada Tsunayoshi looked at the test papers on his desk with a devout expression.

Reborn said coldly, "Heh, Sawada Tsunayoshi, who only scored 29 points in math, this is an announcement, not a discussion."

“Gokudera and Mukuro will go with you.” He picked up his coffee and took a sip.

Sawada Tsunayoshi blinked. "And what about you? Aren't you coming with me?"

"No, consider this a trial for you. As the Tenth Boss of the Vongola Family, Tsuna, you can't disgrace the Vongola Family. Good luck!"

Sitting in the vehicle, Gokudera Hayato looked at the somewhat uneasy Sawada Tsunayoshi, his eyes shining brightly, "Tenth Boss! Don't worry, I will definitely protect you!"

"Rokudo Mukuro is still here. If any of those people dare to disrespect you, I'll blow them all up."

Hayato Gokudera dislikes Rokudo Mukuro, yet he trusts him.

“kufufufu~ The world of sorcery, the spirits of curses, very interesting.”

"What would a sorcerer look like?" Sawada Tsunayoshi imagined the image of an Onmyoji in his mind.

Rokudo Mukuro: "You'll find out when you get there."

With Gokudera Hayato around, the journey was lively, but Rokudo Mukuro only found it noisy.

When they arrived at their destination, Rokudo Mukuro kept his distance from the two of them, his eyes full of disdain.

"Good afternoon. Are you guests of the Vongola family?"

Rokudo Mukuro looked up and saw two tall boys wearing the uniforms of Tokyo Jujutsu High School not far away.

A man with striking white hair and wearing small round sunglasses, but whose eyes, as blue as the sky, were incredibly beautiful.

A young man with a bun hairstyle, a handsome face, and a polite smile on his face, had squinted eyes that resembled those of a fox.

Rokudo Mukuro knew these two people very well; weren't they Gojo Satoru and Natsume Yuuki, whom he had met before?

The two of them also noticed Rokudo Mukuro's gaze.

Xia Youjie greeted Rokudo Mukuro with a smile, "Eh? Isn't this Rokudo-kun? We meet again."

Upon discovering that someone was ignoring his tenth generation, Gokudera Hayato couldn't hold back any longer. "This is our tenth generation Vongola family member."

Xia Youjie and Wujiao Wu noticed that Rokudo Mukuro didn't react. They blinked at the same time and exclaimed, "Wow, a seemingly weak middle school student is actually the leader of the Vongola Family!"

This really shows that you can't judge a book by its cover!

Xia Youjie thought for a moment about the information he had gathered from the world of sorcery, and said with a smile, "Sawada-kun, welcome."

Hayato Gokudera had seen some of the situation in the world of jutsu and knew roughly the identities of Satoru Gojo and Natsuyuki Suke—the strongest jutsu masters in the world of jutsu.

"I am Xia Youjie, and this is Wutiao Wu. Please follow us." Xia Youjie led the way.

The group walked up the steps and headed towards Tokyo Jujutsu High School.

Xia Youjie explained, "This is Tokyo Jujutsu High School, which is also the school we are currently studying at."

Rokudo Mukuro glanced at the Tokyo Jujutsu High School; the environment was nice.

Sawada Tsunayoshi asked with some curiosity, "Are all the students on holiday?"

"No, they're all here."

Sawada Tsunayoshi looked around again and found that the huge campus was empty except for a few of them.

“Vongola, didn’t you look at the data?” Rokudo Mukuro clicked his tongue. “There are three students in this year’s class, including Gojo-kun and Natsuyu-kun.”

The school has a large area and a small number of students. Isn't this the dream school in Senior Hibari's heart?

Sawada Tsunayoshi exclaimed, "Hibari-senpai will definitely love this school."

Rokudo Mukuro disagreed, saying, "His true love must be Namimori Middle School."
