Chapter 2: Being Packed and Sent to Technical College
Kanda Kanon is once again trapped in the cat universe.
Could this be the technique of this body?
But if it was a ritual, why wouldn't these people from the Kanda family know about it?
In short, this book that others cannot see is definitely the product of special power. No matter whether it was a technique or some golden finger, she should at least figure out what it was.
Kanda Kanon was thinking in a dilemma and frowned subconsciously, which ruined her originally cool look.
Xiaoman on the side blinked in confusion. Is this still the doll-like lady?
Yes, just like a puppet, it seems like a human shell without a soul.
Ever since Xiaoman followed her, Kanda Kanon has been the perfect young lady trained by her family.
She would never disobey the orders of her family and was indifferent beyond her age, as if nothing interested her.
Her every move and gesture showed what a noble should be like, and she was a perfect young lady that made the family heads and elders very satisfied.
But now the aura of a noble flower on Kanda Kanon has disappeared.
It was as if the puppet was injected with life and came alive.
Although it is a bit presumptuous, Xiaoman feels that the young lady now is more like a human being and has the emotions that a human should have.
Kanda Kanon didn't pay any attention to Xiaoman's strange behavior. She stared at the book in front of her, which only she could see, as if she wanted to stare a hole in it.
"Sorry, Xiaoman, please take a day off for today's... practice." Kanda Kanon turned her back, and Xiaoman couldn't see her expression at the moment.
Xiaoman was a little hesitant. This was the first time she heard a young lady asking for leave.
"but……"
"This is an order, Xiaoman. I didn't discuss it with you." Kanda Kanon's strong and irresistible words made Xiaoman's heart tighten.
"If anyone questions or forces you to take me there, let him come and confront me in person. After all, I am still the eldest daughter of the Kanda family." Kanda Kanon turned her head and raised the corners of her lips soothingly. Compared with her dignified dress, the emotions in her bright eyes were out of place.
That is the confidence and courage of being a superior.
This also gave Xiaoman confidence. She clenched her fist and nodded vigorously: "Yes, Miss!"
Finally, she was the only one left in the room. Kanda Kanon took a deep breath and carefully turned the pages of the book.
If she guessed correctly, this was most likely a book that recorded the future.
First, this is most likely a book that only she can see.
Of course, it is also possible that others can see it, which needs to be confirmed later.
It's so special, but she still thinks it's just a novel, then she is really stupid.
Second, the characters described in the book exist in reality, such as the fiancé who was picked up for free.
Thirdly, the creatures called cursed spirits, the specialized school called Curse High School, and the special profession called Curse Master used to destroy cursed spirits described in the book had all appeared in fragments in her mind.
Finally, this book is so detailed, it is described entirely from a God's perspective, and it doesn't sound like a made-up story at all.
The year 2018 is the beginning of the book, interspersed with the timeline of Gojo Satoru's high school in 2006 and Yuta Otsutsuki's enrollment in 2017.
Kanda Kanon frowned and read it again carefully. The more she read, the more frightened she became.
Her heart slowly tightened, her shoulders began to tremble, and she gritted her teeth fiercely.
“This is so inexplicable…” Kanda Kanon wrinkled her features and rolled her eyes. “If this is the future, I might as well die now.”
She felt sorry for the characters in the book, including the frivolous teacher Gojo Satoru, whom she complained about. Apart from his personality, she still admired this man very much.
Powerful is his synonym, but also a shackle attached to him.
He lost his best friends and companions, and it seemed like he was constantly losing things on his growth path. Even someone as strong as he was could not make up for it.
Except for him, everyone else in the book has various unforgettable tragic experiences, and in the end only a handful of people are left alive.
Death is a lonely and scary thing. Although she was not mentioned among the people who died tragically in the book, she still felt a lingering fear.
"So, that's it?" Kanda Kanon twitched her lips as she looked at the blank page on the next page. She flipped through it briefly and found that it was still blank.
What’s the difference between this and a bad ending! She complained in her heart.
What worries her is not only the death of Gojo Satoru and others, but also those powerful villains who are destroying the world.
When the enemy possesses both wisdom and strength, all struggles seem ridiculous.
And this ability to predict the future made her feel even more depressed.
[A treasure is yours only if you can keep it.] 】
Human nature is unpredictable, and she had to prepare for the worst. I'm afraid that the day her ability is exposed will be the day she loses her freedom.
not to mention……
She had already decided that it was up to her to decide what to do in life.
Kanda Kanon dug her nails deeply into her palms, and her eyes gradually became firm.
"Miss, I'm back!" Xiaoman opened the door excitedly, looking inexplicably excited. "I've asked for leave for you. Just as you said, those people were speechless in an instant!"
"That's not surprising, since I'm Gojo Satoru's fiancée." Kanda Kanon shrugged.
This book records the future, and Kanda Kanon is 80% certain.
And in the records, neither the Kanda family nor her so-called fiancée were ever mentioned and were insignificant.
Her family is unknown in the world of sorcery, and won't even be considered a fighting force in future wars.
There are two ways for such a weak family to prosper. One is to give birth to a genius in the family, and the other is to marry into a powerful family.
And she, Kanda Kanon, was the sacrifice chosen for this purpose.
Although no one knows why she could become Gojo Satoru's fiancée, but with his influence, the family will not offend her for such a small matter.
"Xiaoman..." Kanda Kanon lowered her eyelashes, with a puzzled look on her face, "Why do you think they would risk their lives to destroy the cursed spirits?"
"Eh?" Xiaoman said hesitantly, "Are you referring to the sorcerers? Because... they have the power of curses, because they have the ability to exorcise cursed spirits and protect others? Or maybe they haven't thought so much, after all..."
"If you are born into a family in the world of sorcery, you are destined to become a sorcerer. It's the same for everyone."
Kanda Kanon lowered her eyes when she heard that.
Good people never have a good ending, and good deeds never get rewarded. This was the world she saw in her previous life.
She didn't want to stay here and risk her life against horrible monsters and embark on a tragic future.
Kanda Kanon's face became increasingly ugly. The later she ran, the more likely she would be implicated.
Although she did not appear in the future in the book, it is possible that she died before this.
Counting the days, she doesn't have much time left.
You have to run away quickly! Kanda Kanon's face turned pale and blue, and rejection was written all over her pretty face.
Her eyes were determined as if she was ready to join the party at any time. Whoever wanted to stay in this shitty world of sorcery could stay there. She was going to escape for sure!
Ideals are beautiful, but reality is cruel.
At this moment, Kanda Kanon did not realize that her casual resistance had become the fuse. The butterfly flapped its wings, causing a storm that swept her into it.
——————
Inside the main house, Kanda Masaki listened to the visitor's report with a serious expression.
"Are you saying that Kanon refused today's class?" Kanda Masaki pinched his chin and stroked his beard from time to time.
"Yes..." The visitor looked at Kanda Masaaki's face and continued quickly, "Please don't blame the young lady. She is also feeling unwell, so..."
"This is not a reason to refuse to practice. Even when she was sick in the past, she never refused her family's arrangements. This refusal is very unusual." Kanda Masaki did not get angry. He narrowed his eyes and hesitated a little. "Could it be that Kanon has an opinion on the arrangements at home?"
The man also began to hesitate, and after much hesitation he finally expressed his guess: "Could it be that the young lady has reached puberty? It is not surprising for a girl of this age to have her own ideas. Maybe after a while she will understand your good intentions."
"No!" Kanda Masaki said firmly.
His face darkened and he snorted coldly: "These are all important courses for Kanon to become the future mother of the Gojo family. For the sake of the family, she must work hard. Unstable factors must not occur. There must be no problems in the marriage between the Kanda family and the Gojo family."
The visitor nodded thoughtfully, his eyes lit up as if remembering something, and he quickly said, "Maybe the young lady is dissatisfied because she doesn't know her future husband. After all, the last time she met the young master of the Gojo family was when she was very young. The young master of the Gojo family is famous for his excellence, and the young lady has reached this age, it's time for them to start to get in touch."
"As long as the young lady understands what an excellent partner the young master of the Gojo family is, she will naturally stop being upset and will seriously learn how to be his future wife!"
Kanda Masaaki's expression relaxed a little. He thought about it carefully and felt that he was right.
"Well, it's time for Kanon to meet her fiancé and let these two kids develop a good relationship."
So, in a corner unknown to Kanda Kanon, the matter that would affect her life was decided.
And she was still racking her brains to think of a way to escape.
In the week since coming to this world, Kanda Kanon has already had a general understanding of the situation. She has read the book so many times that it has been torn apart, and she has written down many important details.
In order to prevent this book from being seen by others and discovering that she possessed such a miraculous ability, Kanda Kanon immediately prepared to destroy the book.
But she failed.
She couldn't store this book in her body like novels or comics, and she had no way to deal with this book. She couldn't do anything to damage it in any way.
I can't throw it away even if I want to.
It haunted her like a ghost, following her wherever she went.
For example, two days ago, she dug a hole in the backyard and buried it, but when she ran back to the room and opened the door, it was still lying on the bed.
The room was quiet, but she heard laughter for no apparent reason.
Damn it, she threw it to the ground with her backhand. This was her 26th failure.
Kanda Kanon was lying on the bed with a dead look in her eyes. But the book floated up from the ground and positioned itself next to her again.
...Forget it, I can't throw it away. If anyone sees it, just say it's a novel she wrote.
A line of tears flowed from the corners of Kanda Kanon's eyes. She really didn't want to admit that she was the one who wrote this crappy story.
In the following days, she skipped classes and wandered around at home as usual.
The reason she didn't run away immediately wasn't because she didn't want to, but because she couldn't.
Because there is still a key issue, that is, the title of Gojo Satoru's fiancée has not been resolved.
As long as she still carries this title, the Kanda family will never let her go.
This is a fantasy world with magical powers.
Even if she changed her appearance and became a new person, there was no guarantee that the magic world would have some kind of spell to find her.
She and Gojo Satoru had never met each other. Although there was a reason why the Gojo family chose to make an engagement with the Kanda family, it should have nothing to do with her.
How could a girl with low spell power and no spells be noticed by a big family? The only possibility that can be thought of is that there is some kind of deal between the Kanda family and Gojo Satoru.
Then this candidate may not necessarily be her, Kanda Kanon thought.
In other words, she was given the title of legitimate daughter and was destined to be the daughter as soon as she was born. However, compared to someone like her who doesn't even have a technique, someone with an excellent technique should be more favored by the Gojo family.
There may be a chance that you may give the position of fiancée to someone else.
In this modern society where monogamy is written into the law, the idiot called father naturally has mistresses and... illegitimate children.
There should be someone in this family who wants to form an alliance with the Gojo family. Let's go and test the waters!
In the corridor, Kanda Kanon strolled in the place where her sisters often appeared.
"Hello, sister." The girl passing by bowed her head and greeted obediently. Judging from her clothes, she should be one of the sisters.
"Look up." Kanda Kanon looked at her with interest. It must be said that although her father was not very good, the children he gave birth to were more beautiful than the other. She was indeed a girl that made people feel pity for her.
The girl slowly raised her head, her eyes seemed to be filled with mist, and she looked a little pitiful.
Kanda Kanon, dressed in red, slowly lifted the girl's chin with her fingers and spoke slowly under her surprised gaze.
"You are very good. I wonder if you have any opinion of Gojo Satoru."
"……well?"
The girl, who was in a state of panic, blinked her eyes, and for some reason the tips of her ears turned red.
"Is it, is it the eldest son of the Gojo family?" The girl's eyes flashed with confusion. "I don't know much about him. I have never seen him, but I heard that he is a very outstanding man."
"Sister, do you want to meet your fiancé?" The girl blinked in sudden realization. "When sister reaches the marriageable age, she should be able to meet Master Gojo."
...It seems that she doesn't have much time left. Kanda Kanon took a breath, maybe she will reach marriageable age faster than the plot.
"Beauty, please leave your contact information." Kanda Kanon took out her cell phone as if facing a great enemy.
She asked Xiaoman to buy the cell phone, a rather old-fashioned flip phone. Smartphones weren't popular yet.
“…Okay, okay!” The girl clasped her hands, feeling a little helpless. Her usually cold sister suddenly seemed like a different person.
The girl took out her cell phone. Kanda Kanon felt a little emotional. It seemed that she was the only one in this family who lived in ancient times.
…Forget it, the important thing is to add my sisters first! It is more important to find someone to marry for you as soon as possible!
But things often don't go as planned.
Someone's plan was shattered before it even began.
Walking up the long stairs and standing under the red torii, Kanda Kanon looked confused.
"Just go out. Why did you bring me to the shrine?" Kanda Kanon looked at the butler in confusion.
To be honest, I haven't let the original owner go out for more than ten years, so I felt it was strange that I suddenly asked her out today.
"Shrine? Ah~ You misunderstood, miss. This is not a shrine." The butler who sent her here answered with a smile.
There is such a big torii here, if it’s not a shrine, then what else could it be? Kanon scratched her head.
"This is the Tokyo Metropolitan Technical College of Jutsu, which is also the school where your fiancé, Master Gojo Satoru, attends."
Um? What did he just say? ?
What school? ? ?
Kanon was shocked.
She stared at the housekeeper in front of her.
She was very familiar with this name, having seen it countless times in books!
"From today on, young lady, you will be enrolled in Tokyo Technical High School. Please make sure to build a good relationship with the young master of the Gojo family, cultivate feelings, and get married as soon as possible. The above are the orders of the head of the family... Where are you going, young lady?" The butler held Kanda Kanon's shoulders.
"I suddenly remembered that the gas at home seemed to be not turned off." Kanda Kanon stepped on the spot with a serious face. This body was so disappointing. She wanted to escape but couldn't.
"What are you talking about, miss? Please don't bother with these little things." The butler's smile made Kanda Kanon's body tremble.
So she really can't go to school?
Hanane didn't want to believe the reality and fell to her knees with a thud.
"No!!!!!"
The tragic screams resounded throughout the entire college.
A white-haired guy who was slacking off and dozing off in the classroom startled and suddenly raised his head and looked around.
"Where did that ghost scream come from? It scared me!"
