Chapter 313: The matter ends. Players and NPs...
The players and NPCs brought back Kaori Itadori's body, and they were received by Yasuke Itadori when they returned to the Itadori residence.
"Really? She actually ran away... That's good." After learning the whole story, Itadori Yasuke looked at Itadori Kaori's body and murmured, "At least now Kaori can rest in peace."
"Uh, there's one thing I need to emphasize. If there's no taboo, it would be best if Madam Kaori were cremated." The player scratched his hair and said delicately, "After all, we haven't caught that curser yet. What if..."
It would be bad if he remembered Kaori Itadori and had her body used again.
"Don't worry, I'm not such a corrupt and stubborn old man." Itadori Yasuke naturally thought of this, his face suddenly changed, he nodded repeatedly, and immediately responded to the black-haired girl's statement.
Besides, since nothing can be taken with you when you are born, nothing can be taken with you when you die. He wasn't that shy about what would happen after his death. The only thing he cared about most was his young grandson...
Itadori Yasuke gently touched Hisahito's little head. The child's sleep quality was much better than he had imagined. Even after tossing and turning for most of the night, he still lay as steady as a rock in his arms.
"Satoru, don't you want to see that child?" Seeing the friendly scene between the grandfather and grandson, Geto suddenly remembered Gojo Satoru yelling in his ear not long ago. He nudged his best friend behind him with his elbow and asked.
"There's nothing interesting about a child who is too healthy. You might as well go back to sleep." Gojo Satoru glanced at Itadori Watsuke, who was so nervous that he almost hunched his whole body, thought for a moment, and answered him like this.
He was indeed an overly healthy child. Even at the age of three, one could sense his talent in sports. However, Six Eyes saw more than just that.
But now... let's calm down this old man who has been frightened all night.
Gojo Satoru's painstaking efforts were not discovered by the players.
"Eh? Gojo is interested in little Yuji? Let me see." The player blinked, moved closer to the sleeping child, and looked carefully.
The player remained silent: "..."
Itadori Wosuke held his breath.
The player touched his chin: "..."
Itadori Wosuke was terrified.
The player snapped his fingers and suddenly realized: "I know!"
"Gojo means this physique is perfect for martial arts!" the player said confidently under the gaze of several people. "Little Yujin's meridians look very healthy, and his fists look very powerful. I feel like he's perfect for learning boxing."
As he said that, the player couldn't help but flick the child's finger. The moment the child's fingertips were grabbed, the player laughed happily.
"You're right." Gojo Satoru nodded.
If he can grow up successfully, this child's physical fitness will indeed be amazing.
"So that's how it is." Itadori Yasuke finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Meeting is fate, so I'll give him a small gift." The player thought for a while, took out an item from his bag and placed it on little Yuji's hand, replacing his own fingers, and then formally said goodbye to Itadori's family.
…
…
It wasn't until he sat on Geto Suguru's Cursed Rainbow Dragon that Gojo Satoru quietly moved over and muttered, "You didn't notice something strange about that kid, did you?"
"What about you? Don't you see it?" The player raised his eyebrows and asked back.
"Me? Of course I saw it—" Gojo Satoru changed his posture, lying sideways on the Rainbow Dragon, looking even more lazy.
"Oh? Then why didn't you say it~" Seeing that the NPC, whose first impression was that of a 'young master', looked unexpectedly embarrassed, the player teased with a smile.
Gojo Satoru: "..."
"I never thought that Wu could be so considerate... You refused to change your name before when I asked you to." Geto Suguru, who was sitting next to him, sighed, feeling a sense of accomplishment as if his child had grown up.
"Tsk—" Gojo Satoru turned his head away in disdain and shouted, "Whatever you call me is my freedom... No, it's my freedom, you know? It's freedom!"
The player ignored Gojo Satoru who was arguing unilaterally with Geto Suguru, but took out a map and began to mark the places he had not visited yet.
"Is this what you have to prepare for catching mice, dear?" Elena asked curiously, stroking her long golden hair.
After leaving Itadori's house, out of curiosity about where her children go to school, Elena also boarded the Curse Spirit Plane Dragon Edition and followed the players back to the Jujutsu High School.
"That's right!" When talking about his plan to catch the mouse, the player clenched his fists, speeded up the drawing route, and explained to Elena why he did so.
"During the battle, I noticed a subtle difference in the cursed energy used by that Sharp-toothed Brain." The player looked at the blonde woman who was listening attentively and explained, "That Sharp-toothed Brain can inhabit corpses and manipulate them to move freely. I think this is his own technique. The technique he used when fighting me - anti-gravity manipulation..."
"It should be from the real Itadori Kaori."
"If that's the case..." Elena followed the idea provided by the black-haired girl, "As long as they get enough corpses, wouldn't the curser be able to use any spell they want?"
Is there no limit to such a shame-breaking and powerful technique?
"That's right!" The player nodded indignantly. Under the puzzled gazes of his peers, he hugged the two of them and cried out in grief, "Gojo, Geto, our strongest team might have been set up!"
Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru were filled with questions: "???"
"Why do you say that, Aurora?" asked Geto Suguru as he tore the black-haired girl off him.
Player: "Oh, because that Sharptooth Brain wants your dick."
"Puff--" Gojo Satoru, who had taken a bottle of soda from Aurora, immediately gushed out the sweet water in his mouth before he could swallow it after hearing Aurora's shocking words, forming a human fountain.
"Coveting...coveting Jie's body!" Although he knew that Aurora didn't mean that, Gojo Satoru still glanced at his best friend with a look full of sympathy and compassion, and then said in a contrived and delicate voice, "That damned curse master, how could he treat our brother Jie like this!"
The player shuddered unconsciously: "..."
The player subconsciously stretched out his foot and kicked, but failed, then calmly and skillfully retracted it.
"Okay, let's get serious." The serious-looking player pushed his glasses up solemnly. "The reason I said that sharp-toothed guy coveted Xia Yu's body was because of this technique that allows him to occupy other people's bodies."
"Although I still don't know the specific method of using his technique, but..."
"What if Gosho suddenly dies for some reason? What if his body is stolen? Then... that curse caster could use his body to perform Gosho's technique—the Curse Spirit Manipulation Technique." The player looked at the two people who finally became serious, and then said, "What if this curse caster happens to have some connection with a curse spirit..."
So many what ifs...
"Aurora, why do I die so easily in your mouth..." Xia Yujie narrowed his eyes and complained helplessly, "And you are thinking too far, aren't you?"
He's just a curse caster, so why would anyone think he'd be connected to a curse spirit? Normally, curse casters work in their own groups. Only the most egregious would collaborate with a curse spirit, and without external manipulation, that would require a communicative curse spirit...
Special-grade cursed spirits are relatively rare, so the possibility of this happening should be very low...
As Geto Suguru thought so, his meaning was clearly expressed on his face.
"Human life is very fragile!" The player glanced at his naive peer and said confidently, "And, Jie, you have to treat your enemies with the same ruthlessness as the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves!"
"If we don't assume the worst, we might end up bearing the consequences ourselves." The player spread his hands and continued, "Also, while the possibility is low, it doesn't mean it's impossible."
"Don't forget, we just met Xiao Kui-chan and Li Luo-chan last time."
The player mentioned the unexpected events that occurred during his first official mission - he transformed into a special-grade cursed spirit and the person who tied the special-grade cursed spirit, the future powerful sorcerer Sakura Kokui and Ikeda Riku.
"Well, Li Luo is a serious and hardworking child. She is always very serious when helping out in the store." Elena smiled and pointed out where Ikeda Li Luo is now.
"Ikeda's curse power isn't good enough, otherwise her special-grade cursed spirit would be even more powerful." Gojo Satoru stroked his chin and gave a serious comment before turning his head towards Geto Suguru. "So, Geto is also the target of that curse caster?"
"This is too tragic! That technique is disgusting!"
"To be precise, she's targeting you... and maybe me, too." After being poured a bucket of cold water, the player who had once felt the burning gaze paused and reluctantly added his name. "So, we're about to be set up!"
"From what I heard, that guy seems to have planned something. Be careful!"
This sounds like a large-scale task. If there are teammates dragging you down, there is absolutely no way you can complete it perfectly!
The players emphasized this several times, trying to brainwash the NPCs who had never suffered much and were already a little arrogant.
"Want to find a breakthrough among you? Humph, you really have a big plan." Elena lowered her eyebrows with a sharp coldness.
The player, startled by the guardian's sudden change of ferocity, exclaimed: "..."
The player coughed twice and said solemnly, "Ahem. Anyway, this is the situation. I've marked all the places he might have moved tonight. We'll make detailed plans after we return to the Polytechnic."
"By the way, you should have told Teacher Ye Moth when you came out, right?" As the sun gradually rose and the dawn sky came, the player suddenly remembered something and asked casually.
However, her two classmates who suddenly became unusually well-behaved but kept making small movements gave her the answer.
Player: “…”
It doesn’t matter. Players who had complained in advance said that even if the sky falls, there is always the tall Gojo Satoru to hold it up!
Moreover, the player has brought a guardian this time, so the player will definitely not be scolded!
The player looks calm and confident.
The player... has returned to the Spell High School!
