Chapter 118 The Second Player

"You two, right?"

Yega Masamichi's eyes were sharp, and his gaze was fixed on Gojo Satoru and Geto Kagami: "Gojo and Kagami, each of you should write a 10,000-word self-review and hand it in to me before next week."

"No, no, this time we have Yuuki! Teacher Yemo!!"

"It has nothing to do with me! It was obviously brought out by classmate Wu. I just fought back a little bit... I didn't expect it to break."

"Come to think of it, why didn't Mr. Yemo suspect Igarashi and Nozomi?"

"Hey, this obviously has nothing to do with me, right?"

"It's probably because Mr. Yemo's new training ground is too fragile. It broke after just a slight touch."

"That's right. I didn't use much effort... Did Mr. Yemo cut corners on the construction project?"

"That's enough! You three!!"

Ye Mo Zheng Dao opened his eyes unable to bear it any longer, and gave each of the three people an "iron fist punishment", with his arms folded: "The project I found will not have any problems! It's obviously you who were not careful enough, and your actions caused too much noise! ​​Each person must submit a 10,000-word self-criticism, no repetition allowed, and submit it before next week. If you keep making excuses, I will add another 10,000 words."

He admitted that he was deceived by Igarashi Yuuki's seemingly well-behaved and upright face, and out of inertial thinking, he subconsciously thought that it was Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru who did it again - he didn't expect that Igarashi, who had just arrived at the school for two days, would join the "School Demolition Team" so quickly.

——As for Ieiri Shoko? Shoko only knows how to reverse the technique, not how to fight——Do they think everyone is as demanding as the three of them?

"oh."

The three DKs all hung their heads in despair, their voices weak.

——In short, in the end, each of the three people was fined and had to write a 10,000-word self-criticism.

"Wait a minute! Mr. Nightmoth, you just said there was a new mission...what is it?"

Seeing that Ye Mo Zheng Dao seemed to be about to turn around and leave, Jia Ru Ningzi, who was standing aside watching the show, immediately reminded him.

"Ah... I almost forgot."

Ah, he almost forgot about this matter because his blood pressure rose due to the anger he felt from these three little bastards. Sure enough, Glass is more considerate than these three little bastards.

Ye Mo Zheng Dao stopped walking, turned around, and his face returned to its original serious expression: "There is a mission: A first-level cursed spirit appeared in an orphanage in Yotsuya District. The people inside have been evacuated, but now two children and a teacher are missing."

"You guys, your mission this time is to exorcise the cursed spirits and rescue as many children and teachers as possible who are missing inside."

"It turns out to be this kind of mission again."

Gojo Satoru was not interested. "Teacher Yemo, if it's just a first-level cursed spirit, anyone can go there, right? Why do we all need to go there?"

"Don't let your guard down too much." Yega Zhengdao's face darkened. "Even if it's a first-level cursed spirit, you still have to be careful, otherwise you will suffer a great loss sooner or later. It just so happens that in this mission, exorcising the cursed spirit should not be difficult for you. It just so happens that Igarashi has never been on a formal mission, so you can also exercise your team cooperation ability - by the way, you are not allowed to throw away the auxiliary supervisor this time."

Speaking of the latter part, Yega Masamichi couldn't help but strengthen his tone, his eyes fixed closely on Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru - it was obvious that he was talking about the two of them.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ye Mo. What happened last time was an accident. It shouldn't happen again this time." Xia Yujie touched his nose and put on an omnipotent smile.

"It's just a first-level cursed spirit... It's just like a small fish. There's no need to pay attention to it."

Gojo Satoru drawled his words nonchalantly, still showing no interest: "But we can go over and see what kind of curse it is, and add some new members to Jay's curse library~!"

Ieiri Naoko: "I have no opinion."

"Um, Mr. Nightmoth!"

Xi Haiqing Dou suddenly raised his hand, his face a little strange: "This kind of mission to exorcise cursed spirits... must I go with my companions? Can't I... go alone?"

"Um?"

Ye Mo Zheng Dao's face was slightly tense: "Igarashi, why do you have such an idea?"

Unlike Gojo Satoru, Geto Suguru and Ieiri Shoko, who all accepted this well.

——Perhaps all geniuses have this common problem. Both Geto Suguru and Gojo Satoru have higher talents in spellcasting and more arrogant personalities. When they first entered school, neither of them was willing to submit to the other. When they encountered tasks, they were arrogant and thought they could solve them alone and did not need any companions or help at all.

Ieiri Shoko didn't have this problem - after all, her reversal technique was an auxiliary treatment. But as a classmate of the two of them, she had seen the two of them being uncooperative in the beginning.

Therefore, the three of them probably subconsciously thought that Saikai Haruto had the same idea.

But Spodoptera shindao doesn't think so.

As a teacher, he thought he had some vision for people... "Igarashi Yuuki" might have some minor flaws like being naughty, but they were nothing more than the youthful vigor unique to teenagers, and she didn't have any major flaws.

What's more important is that although "Igarashi Yuuki" thinks he is very strong, he has never considered himself a "genius", and he does not have those so-called "common problems of geniuses". If you say that he is arrogant and thinks he "does not need to cooperate with anyone to drag him down", Yega Masamichi does not believe it.

Yega Zhengdao thought for a moment and said, "Are you worried about your spell? Don't worry, Wu told me that there will be no problem."

"Don't worry, no one can find it except my 'Six Eyes'. There is only one me in the world of magic."

Gojo Satoru came over and said, "Yuuki, don't you want to go? Or do you just want to go alone? Why? You can't possibly think that someone will drag you down, right?"

"Ah... I didn't think so."

Xi Haiqingdou's eyes wandered, and his words became hesitant, and he looked around and said, "Well, I think, well, if I go there alone, it shouldn't be impossible to complete it, right?"

"I don't believe it! You must be hiding something from us!"

Gojo Satoru narrowed his eyes, crossed his arms, and pushed his sunglasses up on his nose with a sharp look: "Tell me the reason!"

Xia Yujie frowned slightly: "Igarashi, do you have any difficulties? If you tell us, maybe we can help you solve your problem."

Ieiri Naoko also followed up: "Although these two idiots are not very reliable most of the time, they are reliable sometimes. And Mr. Yemo also said that the main purpose of this mission is to train everyone's teamwork, so it is definitely impossible for you to go alone."

In fact, it's not just Saikai Haruto. If it's Gojo Satoru or Geto Suguru, any one of them can go over and get the job done. After all, even though it's a first-level cursed spirit, it's just a first-level one to them, and there's no chance that they won't be able to handle the situation.

But Noctua’s correct path is to ask them to “work as a team” – how can one person be considered a team or cooperation?

"Eh? Do you really want to say this? I feel a little embarrassed..."

Xi Hai Qing Dou pursed his face, and under the gaze of everyone else, he said in a low voice with embarrassment: "Okay. Actually, it's because of my luck, luck..."

He closed his eyes and spoke quickly and smoothly, "My luck has never been very good. If I were alone, I would be able to handle any unexpected incidents myself. But if I were with you, you would be dragged down by my bad luck and would be in danger."

"So, Mr. Yemo, how about I try it alone?" He turned and looked at Yemo Zhengdao.

Ye Moth Zheng Dao was shocked: "What kind of excuse is that? Are you kidding me?"

Can "luck" be considered a reason? Isn't that a bit too weird?

"That's it." Xi Haiqingdou sighed, but his expression was quite calm: "My luck has always been really bad, huh? Otherwise, I wouldn't be like this now."

"What do you look like now?" Ieiri Naoko touched her chin and looked him up and down. "What's wrong with you? I think you look pretty handsome now, Igarashi."

Saikai Haruto: "…I am glad that you complimented me, Nazuko-san. But it is not about my appearance."

"Now that you mention it, Yuuki, it seems your luck is really bad..."

Thinking of Saikai Haruto's previous experiences, Gojo Satoru seemed to be lost in thought - indeed, it seemed that his new classmate's luck was really bad to a certain extent.

Before Xi Haiqing Dou could say anything else, his eyes suddenly lit up again, as if he had suddenly thought of something interesting, and his voice rose: "But isn't this more fun?"

Xi Hai Qing Dou: “?”

Others: “???”

"If Yuuki's luck is very bad, will we encounter any unexpected things if we go with you? Will we see new cursed spirits that we have never seen before? Will we see the first-level cursed spirits evolve on the spot? Or will we encounter other strange things... It's really interesting to think about it this way!"

Gojo Satoru's eyes became brighter as he spoke.

Xi Haiqingdou blinked his eyes, stunned: "Eh? Student Wu, I'm not joking, I'm serious..."

"What do you think, Jay?" Gojo Satoru turned around to look for help, and said excitedly, "It looks super interesting, doesn't it? Ah, I really want to know how bad the bad luck that Yuuki mentioned can be..."

"I think so too. It sounds interesting."

Kagome smiled and turned to look at Saikai Haruto: "Come to think of it, Igarashi, is this the reason why you didn't want to come to Jujutsu High School in the first place?"

——He remembered the hesitation on Gojo Satoru's face when he had advised Saikai Haruto. At that time, he thought Saikai Haruto had other concerns, but when he recalled it just now, he suddenly felt that his hesitation at that time seemed more similar to his hesitation now?

"Hey, Geto-san, did you see that? That's a small part of the reason."

Xi Haiqing Dou's expression was obedient and calm: "It doesn't matter what I say, I'm used to it, and those dangers are not very dangerous to me. But if I act with others, isn't it said that exorcising cursed spirits is a very dangerous thing? Then it would be bad if it causes danger to others and hurts you."

"In that case, my companions will be injured because of me... If the situation is serious, won't it also cause resentment among everyone? It would be better to separate from the beginning."

really.

It seems that he had misunderstood before.

"I think your idea is right, Igarashi."

Xia Yujie's voice was neither fast nor slow. When he was about to nod, he changed his tone and said, "But you got one thing wrong. Your companions are Wu and I. We are very strong, not weak. At least, we are not weaker than you. Therefore, the things you are worried about are not something that Wu and I need to worry about or feel dangerous about."

"So you don't need to worry about us at all. Those things you worry about will never happen to my Wu."

"Just like what Wu said: If there is any unexpected danger beyond our expectations, wouldn't it be a very interesting thing for us?"
