Tokyo Jujutsu High School.

playground.

"Are you ready? I'm going to do it."

Gojo Satoru did a few perfunctory stretching exercises and was eager to start the fight. Kagome stood a hundred meters away, calm and smiling, saying, "This is my first time leading a Heroic Spirit into battle as a Master. I'm actually quite nervous."

The white-haired boy sneered, "This is my first time fighting a Jedi warrior, I am also looking forward to it."

Jedi Knight. Great Swordsman of the Universe. Al Xiang:

He is also looking forward to fighting against the ceiling of combat power in "Jujutsu ○ Sen".

Even though this combat power ceiling is currently just a 16-year-old brat, Gojo Satoru is still Gojo Satoru after all.

Half an hour ago, several high school students ran to the rooftop to escape the iron fist of Mr. Night Moth. After a while of commotion, two male high school students took the initiative to ask Al to fight with him.

This is a Heroic Spirit, and a Heroic Spirit that can communicate. As the "strongest", how can I miss the opportunity to fight a Heroic Spirit!

Al, who showed little interest in this, said: "I would rather explore new Japanese confectionery products than fight. As you know, my energy converter needs sugar, preferably some handmade snacks. If the snacks come from a long-established store and are expensive, then it must be very much to my taste..."

Xia Yujie smiled and said, "The crepes on Takeshita Road are so delicious that you can't wait to swallow them with your tongue."

Al perked up. "Where? Where?"

The high school boy patted his head lovingly: "Berserker, you know."

Yes, of course I understand.

Al immediately said: "Berserker never avoids a fight, and never refuses a Master's request! - If the existence of crepes is true."

Soon, there were several figures warming up on the playground.

Xia Yujie suggested half seriously and half jokingly: "How about this, Satoru. The loser this time will call himself something more humble, how about that?"

"Wow, this proposal is aimed at me alone, right? Only a fool would agree to it."

The white-haired boy made a gesture of wiping his neck lightly, and the next second, he took a step and instantly closed the distance with Geto Suguru. Although his 1.9-meter-tall figure was not very flexible, the white-haired boy was as swift and agile as a cheetah, so dangerous that it made people's hearts jump.

Kagome threw the Pokéball calmly: "It's decided that it's you - Berserker!"

"Ooooooooooo!"

The spiritized Al condensed into a human form at the same time as the Pokémon Ball landed on the ground. The glowing lightsaber blocked Gojo Satoru's attack in time. At first glance, it looked like he had really emerged from the Pokémon Ball.

Boom——!

Under Gojo Satoru's fierce impact, Al was pushed back a few meters by inertia. By the time he steadied his feet, he was already within the distance that Geto Suguru could touch him with just a stretch of his hand.

A distance of a hundred meters is just a blink of an eye.

Xia Yujie praised calmly: "Not bad, they actually managed to hold on. All right, Al, it's our turn. Attack, 100,000 volts--!"

Al flipped his wrist, and the lightsaber in his hand really began to crackle and release black lightning!

Gojo Satoru quickly used his Unlimited Skill to deflect the black lightning that hit his face, and was greatly shocked and said, "You can actually discharge electricity?!"

"This is the darkest magic in the universe - Alter Force Lightning!!!"

The onlookers, Naoko Ieiri, Utahime Iori, and Meimei: "..."

What kind of ridiculous sparring session is this?

Al gave the lightsaber a crackling electrical effect, then let his body run completely according to his instincts.

Completely different from his unreliable appearance, Berserker is full of aggression when he enters the combat state. He swirls the lightsaber in his hand smoothly, and after the initial block, he quickly switches from defense to offense. The plastic-feeling lightsaber in his hand is danced out with afterimages, and each strike is fast and fierce, all hitting the weak points of Gojo Satoru's moves.

But who is Gojo Satoru?

The high-spirited Six-Eyed Son of God is unwilling to be outdone, nor will he allow himself to be the passive defender.

The two crazy guys who only wanted to attack turned an ordinary sparring match into a life-and-death fight. The fight became more and more fierce, while the other party in the field, Kagome Takeshi, stood calmly in the sandy and flying playground, commanding without any tension:

"Al, move fast! Big explosion! Hit him!"

Ieiri Naoko: “…”

Do you really think you are a Pokémon trainer?

Mingming was a little surprised and said, "He's quite good at fighting. He's the first guy besides Geto who can fight Gojo to this extent. Is that guy really a cursed spirit? He looks too much like a human."

Ieiri Nishiko responded vaguely.

An Geji was speechless and said, "I say, do we really not need to stop them? The playground is about to be destroyed by them."

"It's okay. If you really get angry, Geto will be responsible for mediating."

The singing girl in the ann grumbled without daring to agree: "Persuading him to fight? I think it would be good if he didn't burn the fire and pour the oil..."

"Experience +30, experience +30, experience +30..."

"Level up to lv.44"

After a sparring match, Al's Heroic Spirit level jumped two levels, which gave him much more experience than wild monsters.

After they finished fighting, the therapist, Naoko Ieiri, came over and first used the reversal technique on Gojo Satoru, and then tried it on Al, but...

"Reversal of the technique has no effect on him."

The girl shrugged regretfully.

What a shame, she actually wanted to try what it felt like to heal a heroic spirit.

Al was not surprised to hear this.

Xia Youjie came over and patted Al on the head.

"Is it because the main component of Heroic Spirits is magic power, not cursed power?"

“That should be it.”

Al wiped his face with his sleeve and said with a harmless face: "Master, one crepe is not enough for me anymore."

Xia Yujie smiled and said, "Ah, I didn't expect you to eat only one."

He said with fighting spirit: "Then it's my turn. Don't worry, crepes are all you can eat."

Al said cheerfully, "No problem!"

A deal is done!

The two high school boys are really strong.

Gojo Satoru's individual strength is of course beyond words. As a ranged mage, Geto is surprisingly good at physical skills. Unlike Gojo Satoru's unconventional attacking style, Geto is a person who is proficient in superb fighting skills. After the fight, Al's level was successfully raised to lv.46.

An ordinary cursed spirit only has 10 experience points, but Gojo and Geto can get 30 experience points after just two moves, which is like two moving experience packs.

However--

So hungry!!!

“Crepe crepe crepe crepe, Master, crepe crepe crepe crepe—!”

Xia Yujie, who was having a great time, grabbed his shoulders and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to Takeshita Street!"

"Wait!" An Geji, who had been watching the game outside the playground for a long time, trotted over and called out to Al: "Well, thank you for coming to help us this morning. Mingming and I came here to thank you."

Al looked at Geto, Gojo Satoru, and then at Naoko Ieiri who was standing next to the singer An, and the first thing he said was, "Crepe."

An Utahime: “……Ah?”

An Utahime looked puzzled and asked, "Crepe? Can't you speak? Aren't you the same person as that--that handsome military man with long hair?"

Al looked at her calmly and repeated, "Mm, crepes."

“…”

He looked like a cursed crepe spirit formed by resentment of not being able to eat crepes. An Utahime immediately exploded: "Damn it, Gojo Satoru, you are playing tricks on me again!!!"

Gojo Satoru: “…”

There was no way, the plan could not keep up with the changes. After a brief discussion, they decided to deny that the two heroes were the same "cursed spirit" in order to avoid arousing the jealousy of those rotten oranges in the upper management.

Gojo Satoru chuckled, "You've been fooled, idiot, lelelelelele——"

An Utahime exploded immediately.

"Scum, I'm going to kill you--!"

The male high school students decisively carried Al on their left and right, and quickly ran towards the school gate, saying happily: "Takeshita Road, Takeshita Road, crepes, crepes!"

"????????????"

Iori Utahime was furious.

Ieiri Shoko quickly grabbed the furious An Utahime and said, "Senior, senior! Don't be angry at that scumbag. Let's go to the cafeteria to cook hot pot!"

Mingming looked at the backs of the three boys running away, and always felt that the blond-haired and blue-eyed "Cursed Spirit" was a bit suspicious, and the attitudes of Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru were even more suspicious.

Are those two humanoid cursed spirits really not the same cursed spirit?

She said thoughtfully: "Glass, in fact, there were more than just me and the singer in the department store at that time..."

"Um?"

"No, nothing." Mingming shook his head and smiled softly, "Forget it, don't say such things casually."

At night, after eating and drinking their fill, Al and his two companions camped at the door of the dormitory. They pitched a large tent and turned it into a simple temporary dormitory.

There is no other way. Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru's dormitory was blown up by Al, and now they can only (?) live in a tent for a few days.

Each of the high school students had a sleeping bag. Al was still slurping up the octopus balls he had packed and brought back to school. The stomach of the blond curse spirit was like a bottomless pit that seemed like it would never be filled.

As they listened to the cicadas chirping in the summer night, they chatted casually: "...This is the plan. Al, from now on, you should pretend to be a cursed spirit that was subdued by Jay. It's better not to let the idiots in the world of curses know about the existence of heroic spirits."

"Rotten orange?"

"They are the old guys who lead the world of spellcasting. They are timid as hell. If something is beyond their control, they would like the other party to disappear forever in order to protect their own authority."

That sounds really corrupt.

Al said seriously: "I understand. This is a sign of the decline of an organization."

Gojo Satoru smiled and said, "Yes, that's why it's called rotten orange. Isn't it very appropriate?"

Summer Oil asked Al: "Hey, Berserker, can I ask what your plans are for the future?"

Al wiped his mouth: "What?"

"There is no magic in our world, no magicians, and no Holy Grail, but you must have your own wish, right? Otherwise, there is no reason for you to stay here. So what do you think?"

Al was stumped by his question.

He is not actually a heroic spirit, but an ordinary person who got the COS gold finger by mistake, and accepted the mission to change the fate of the characters in Jujutsu ○ War...

But what Xia Youjie said was right, he did have a wish that he wanted to fulfill.

Gojo Satoru suddenly realized, "Yes, if they want to go back, the Heroic Spirits can just commit suicide and return to the Throne of Heroes. I saw that the Heroic Spirits who left the Holy Grail War all returned directly to the Throne of Heroes."

"...I won't go back to the Throne of Heroes."

"Why?"

“Because the crepes and takoyaki are so delicious.”

Two male high school students: "..."

Xia Yujie sighed softly: "Forget it, Wu, everyone has their own secrets, let's not ask about Al's wishes."

Al suddenly asked, "Do you want me to stay? Summoning me was just a surprise to you, right?"

After a moment of silence, Xia Yujie replied, "Indeed, we didn't think we could actually summon a Heroic Spirit at that time, so... I'm sorry, yesterday's summoning ceremony was just a spur-of-the-moment game."

“Why apologize?”

"What I mean is - I am very sorry for summoning you casually in such a playful manner. If I had known that you would respond to my call, I would have made the summoning ceremony more formal, and perhaps I should have prepared a more decent reason for the summoning..."

Gojo Satoru couldn't help but roll his eyes in his sleeping bag.

It has begun, it has begun, the strange and Jack-style remarks.

Wouldn't it be better to just say, "Although it was just an accident, you're welcome to stay"?

Al was also surprised by Geto's serious attitude.

...This child took his calling very seriously.

But he is clearly just a fake heroic spirit.

The soul that had been lazing around since switching to [Mysterious Heroine X.Alter] finally said seriously, "Thank you."

"Hmm? Thank you for what?"

Al said calmly: "Your impromptu summoning really saved my life."

Xia Yujie shook his head: "...I don't understand."

Gojo Satoru nodded: "I don't understand."

Al: “I don’t understand.”

Al took out a tissue and wiped his hands, then dug out Geto's hand from the sleeping bag and shook it. Gojo Satoru looked at them and unconsciously stretched out his hand to shake Al's hand.

The blond-haired, blue-eyed heroic spirit said earnestly: "I will entrust all the power in this body to you. You are my anger and my joy until death separates us forever."

Xia Yujie was moved and said: "Al..."

"But I'm still a little hungry now. If I have to choose between sleeping to conserve my energy and finding something to eat, I choose--"

Kagome: "Good night, Berserker!"

Gojo Satoru: "Goodnight, Berserker!"

Al was forced to choose to sleep: "..."

"...Good night, Masters."
