In the cafe, Al rested his chin on his hand and observed the two newly unlocked children.
The little boy's name is Yuta Otsukotsu, he is from Sendai and he came to Tokyo with his family today for business.
The little girl's name is Rika Kimoto, also from Sendai. She claims to be Okkotsu Yuta's girlfriend and is here to play in Tokyo with Okkotsu Yuta today.
Due to some unexpected circumstances, Otkotsu Yuta's family left their two children in the cafe and went to deal with the emergency themselves. According to Rika Kimoto, Otkotsu Yuta is usually a very well-behaved and stable child, and his family has always been very confident in him.
As for the car accident that almost happened just now - that was purely because I was scared by Zhenzi.
Xia Yujie asked them kindly: "Do you want to eat something? As an apology, I will treat you to cake."
Al immediately raised his hand: "Chocolate honey toast!"
Xia Yujie: “…”
He kept smiling friendly, "Are you a kid, Arjun?"
Al said confidently: "Of course, I will always be in the second grade of junior high school!"
Xia Yujie: “…”
Thank you for being so self-aware.
Okkotsu Yuta quickly refused, "Thank you for your kindness, but Riko and I brought money..."
Xia Yujie said seriously: "If you don't let us apologize, we will feel bad."
Inorimoto poked Otsutsuki Yuta's arm and said, "Eat, Yuta. We almost got into a car accident. It would be a waste if we don't eat."
"Well... okay." Yuta Otsukotsu said, "Then I want to eat chocolate honey toast. What do you think, Li Xiang?"
Wow.
This child is so considerate!
Gojo Satoru slowly spoke in the team channel: "Aru-kun, who was replaced by an elementary school student, how do you feel now?"
Al laughed and said, "Do you look down on elementary school students? Mature adults will calmly accept the kindness from children."
Kagome: "...Aren't you the one who just claimed to be a second-year junior high school student forever?"
Perhaps because she was used to Otsutsuki Yuta's nice-natured personality, Rika Inori curled her lips but didn't object: "Sure."
Xia Yujie shook his head and ordered some snacks that would probably be popular with children. He also ordered two servings of chocolate toast for Al. He explained, "Al likes it more. If you eat from the same piece as him, you may not even get any chocolate chips."
Otsutsuki Yuta: “…”
Do adults also like sweets? Although the blond-haired, blue-eyed older brother looks very young, giving people the illusion that he is very young, he is actually very tall. I noticed this when I just walked on the street.
Ieiri Naoko silently took out a cigarette, and after several people at the table looked at her at the same time, she calmly put the cigarette back into her pocket.
She changed the subject and asked, "Well, Otsutsu-kun, have you always been able to see that kind of thing?"
Okkotsu Yuta was stunned and couldn't react for a moment: "What kind of thing?"
Al said simply: "Ghost."
Otsukotsu Yuta: "...Yes. Although I only started recently, I always see some strange things. However, all the things I saw before are not as scary as the female ghost just now..."
Qi Ben Li Xiang said unhappily: "What? Yuta, what did you see?"
"It's a female ghost, she looks like Zhenzi in the movie..."
Al: “…”
Three high school students: "..."
Coincidentally, the female ghost who scared you just now is actually the real Zhenzi Ben Zhen!
Al sighed, "Sister Zhenzi - she is indeed a goddess in the cursed spirit world."
Even though she was sealed away by the Gojo family for decades, the legend of Sister Sanaeko is still everywhere in Japan. There are a lot of games and movies about her. It is only natural that Otsutsuki Yuta would think of Sanaeko when he sees the female ghost.
This level of popularity is definitely at the Pikachu level!
Qi Ben Li Xiang said angrily: "Then why didn't you ever tell me?"
Okkotsu said in embarrassment: "I was afraid of scaring you..."
"I can't see, how could I be scared?"
"..." Okkotsu Yuta showed an expression of sudden enlightenment: "That's right."
The four people who were listening: "..."
Ieiri Naoko couldn't help but quietly complain: "Are they really planning to get married when they grow up? Judging from the way they get along, Otsutsuki will definitely be controlled by Nobumoto after they get married."
The three teammates all expressed their approval.
This kid named Kimoto Rika is obviously very opinionated and has her own ideas. She has been secretly observing them since she sat down. She is a perfect complement to the simple-minded Yuta Otsutsuki.
But, after all, we are only in primary school, and we still have a long life ahead of us. It is really too early to talk about getting married now.
Qi Ben Li Xiang asked them: "Can you also see the female ghost that Yuta saw? Are you mediums? Psychics?"
Xia Yujie smiled and explained to them: "No, we are sorcerers."
"Spellcaster?"
Gojo Satoru bit the straw and answered, "They are the guys who specialize in fighting monsters. But the Zhenzi you just saw was raised by the monster Liu Hai over there, so it is not considered a wild monster."
Okkotsu Yuta was surprised and said, "You can raise ghosts? That's amazing..."
Weird Liu Hai. Summer Oil Jie: "..."
A vein on Xia Yujie's forehead throbbed, but he still managed to keep smiling.
"Otsutsuki-kun, actually that's not a female ghost, it's a cursed spirit. Cursed spirits are monsters born from negative human emotions. Many people go missing or die in Japan every year, right? That's all caused by cursed spirits."
"Is that so..."
A sorcerer or something like that sounds pretty powerful, but——
He hesitated for a moment, but still asked curiously, "By the way, is that a magician's unique symbol?"
Xia Yujie was puzzled and asked, "What?"
Yuta Otsutsuki tapped the back of his hand and said, "I see each of you has one of these marks."
Xia Yujie: “…”
Gojo Satoru: “…”
Ieiri Naoko: “…”
They lowered their heads at the same time, their eyes fixed on the backs of their hands.
The Command Spells, representing "love", "innocence" and "knowledge" respectively, are so eye-catching, just like the stickers that cost 200 yuan a piece in the stationery store next to the elementary school.
They all looked at Al, the culprit, at the same time. Al immediately turned his head away, pretending to check if his cake was ready.
High school students: “…”
Shameful!!!
After they finished eating the cake, Otsukotsu's family came to take the two children home. Before saying goodbye, Al said to Geto Suguru, "Master, do you want to exchange contact information with Otsukotsu?"
"Um?"
"What if they encounter trouble with cursed spirits?"
"...It's rare that you can say something so normal."
Al: “…”
Our "Mysterious Heroine X.Alter" is a Berserker who can communicate with the Master calmly! He even wishes the Master a happy birthday on his birthday, so of course he is normal!
Moreover, the two little ghosts in front of him are one of the important characters of "Jujutsu ○ War" and are his alternative mission targets for "changing fate". He can't lose contact with them just like that.
"But you're right. Children who can see cursed spirits are always more attractive to cursed spirits than ordinary children. It would be good to leave contact information with each other. Besides, this child can see cursed spirits, and maybe he will be our descendant in the future."
He turned to the two children and said, "Otsutsuki-kun, Kimoto-san, how about exchanging contact information with me?"
Otsutsuki Yuta and Inorihara Rika looked at each other, and Otsutsuki Yuta nodded slightly.
Five minutes later, the two children walked out of the dessert shop with their guardian, and Gojo Satoru stretched his back.
"Are we going back to school too?"
"Go back." Xia Yujie said, "Anyway, you are the one who will write the apology this time."
Gojo Satoru frowned: "...I suddenly don't want to go back."
Ieiri Naoko sneered and kicked Gojo Satoru onto the back of the Devil Fish Curse Spirit, "The sooner you write it, the sooner you will be reborn. This time, you have gotten into such a big trouble, and none of you can escape. Hmm? Geto, where's Al?"
When Xia Yujie looked back, he found that Al had turned into a spirit silently.
What happened?
Could it be that the "unlimited black bean paste" consumed too much and eating so many sweets couldn't make up for it?
Xia Yujie suddenly became worried.
At this time, Al was choosing and selecting on the vest interface.
As a COSER with many different costumes, it would be a bit boring to maintain the same look for half a month.
He flipped through his COS suit, and the unlocked heroes were "Nightingale" and "Mysterious Heroine X.Alter". The former was low on power, but the latter didn't have to worry about it. Even though the "Infinite Black Bean Soup" just now consumed a lot of power, after a big meal, he had recovered 50% of his power.
During this time, Al had been trying to unlock "Lancelot". When "Mysterious Heroine X.Alter" was fully charged, the extra energy could be used to charge other vests. After half a month of hard work, the battery of "Lancelot" was charged to 30%. At this time, Al suddenly had an idea.
How about switching to "Lancelot" and training my ability to control the consumption of mana? Even if I can't maintain it for long, it doesn't matter. I can just treat it as a "surprise" for the Masters.
The last time he used the "Nightingale" vest, he had no experience as a Heroic Spirit and could not control the speed at which his magic power was consumed. He was too passive at that time.
[Host, according to the system's detection, the Lancelot vest has a poor compatibility with the host. Once the fusion occurs, it will be difficult for the host to maintain his sanity.]
Al was silent for a while, then asked it sincerely: "Although I always think I am quite normal, system, objectively speaking, do you think I am normal?"
System: [……]
Thank you, thank you for being so self-aware.
"Al?"
Kayu Kei's worried voice came over.
Al came back to his senses: "What's wrong, Master?"
"Are you okay? Do you want anything else to eat?"
Al was stunned, and then he realized that Geto was hiding because he didn't have enough magic power. He said innocently:
"It's okay, Master. Let's just go back like this. When Mr. Yemoth wants to beat someone up, you must not call me out, lest he remember my apology letter again."
Xia Yujie: “…”
What a great disaster! Everyone runs away.
The waitress came out carrying the packaged desserts and said with a smile, "Hello, sorry for the wait. The rose bean paste buns you wanted to take away have been packaged for you."
Xia Yujie took the rose bean paste bun and said, "Thank you. I was going to give this to my classmate, but I'll just eat it myself now."
Al: “…”
In a flash, he came out from behind the waitress and grabbed Geto Suguru's hand. The waitress was startled by the blond-haired boy who came out of nowhere.
Al held Xia Youjie's hand tightly and said, "If we become rich and powerful, don't forget each other."
"Haha, it's too late."
