Chapter 88
Baichuanmu's reservation for dining was not at mealtime, mainly because Gojo Satoru ate three crepes at once. Even if he was in urgent need of sweets to replenish his brain power, he couldn't digest the crepes so quickly.
"Wu, there's still time. Why don't you sneak up to the sky and fly around to help digest the food?" Bai Chuanmu glanced at the time on her phone and pointed at the sky and said to Gojo Wu. She looked around nervously, "It's just right that no one is paying attention to this place right now. This position is also out of reach of the cameras. Wu, teleport away!"
Gojo Satoru opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end said nothing. An indescribable helplessness revealed his face. He sighed heavily, as if he was speechless about Baichuan Mu.
Bai Chuanmu pondered for a while, and suddenly realized: "Oh, that's right, I can't do strenuous exercise after eating just now, how could I have forgotten this... But is teleportation considered strenuous exercise?"
"What do you think?" Gojo Satoru asked back. He nudged Geto Xiayou with his elbow and muttered, "Geto, why does your mother always have such weird ideas?"
Xia Youjie naturally had a very high filter for Baichuanmu: "How can it be considered a weird idea, Wu? My mother is concerned about you. After all, you just ate three crepes...Are you really not full?"
Gojo Satoru rubbed his stomach. He was about 90% full now. But thinking about the fruit pizza he had added pineapple to, he said stubbornly, "Not full - how could a sorcerer be full?!"
Geto Suguru and Nozomi Ieiri: ...Your sorcerer seems a little different from ours.
Gojo Satoru looked at his friend with a speechless expression and just snorted. No matter what, at least he could still eat a slice of pizza, so it didn't matter if he was a little full.
"Oh..." Ieiri Naoko blinked and pounded her palm with her fist. "That means, Satoru, you can convert the food you eat into cursed energy, right? So you are the strongest, I see, I see?"
Gojo Satoru frowned and tilted his head in confusion: "...Hmm? Glass, do you have any misunderstandings about the strongest?"
"Hahaha, Nitro, that's not true," Xia Youjie smiled helplessly and glanced at Gojo Satoru, "Satoru...his cursed power is infinite in a sense."
"Infinite? Really?" Ieiri Naoko was a little surprised, "I feel a little tired after a few treatments."
Geto Xiayou said mysteriously: "In a sense~"
Ieiri Naoko looked helplessly at Geto Suguru who was deliberately keeping the topic in suspense, and didn't want to continue the conversation.
"Humph," Gojo Satoru snorted, and raised his head proudly, "Because I have six eyes, the consumption of cursed energy when using the unlimited technique is infinitely close to zero."
Ieiri Naoko nodded thoughtfully: "But if you use it too much, you will still feel uncomfortable and tired, and it can't be considered truly 'infinite'."
Gojo Satoru choked. Ieiri Shoko's guess was accurate, but he was not surprised that she could think of this. It was already obvious. However, Gojo Satoru was only stunned for a short time, and the smug look on his face did not diminish. He said nonchalantly: "That is only temporary. As long as I learn the reversible technique, it will be truly infinite."
Ieiri Naoko smiled and said, "Even if you haven't learned the unlimited technique, you can always come to me."
Gojo Satoru blinked and said in surprise: "Glass, as a logistics officer, your role is not just to consume supplies... Hmm!"
Before he could finish his words, he was hit on the head by Ieori Naoko: "In addition to consuming supplies, I am also good at hitting my teammates... Satoru, your reaction is too slow. If you respond in time and activate the unlimited technique, you can still block my attack..."
Gojo Satoru covered his head: "You..."
Ieiri Naoko nodded seriously: "Yes, that's right, this is a sparring match, it's for your own good, Satoru."
Gojo Satoru gritted his teeth and said, "Then why don't you continue to attack with your monkey corpse?"
Ieiri Naoko gave him a speechless look: "Do you think I'm stupid? Didn't you say that your six eyes are more sensitive to cursed energy? Although I don't know the details, at times like this, I still have to rely on my fists to speak."
Xia Yujie chuckled and said, "It's incredible that Gaozi was able to sneak attack Wu."
Baichuanmu suggested: "How about a fist-shaped magic tool? A big pink fist, or a Mary Sue color scheme to highlight the contrast!"
"Haha..." Jiarui Naoko laughed twice and wanted to say it was not necessary, but after hearing the contrast of Baichuanmu's words, she felt it was interesting again, "It sounds good, but what is a cursed tool?"
"It's probably similar to my glasses. These are glasses that are infused with cursed power. They allow people who can't see cursed spirits to see them~" Bai Chuanmu said, pointing at the glasses she was wearing. She had never taken them off since she put them on.
It seemed that cursed spirits were less common near the Jujutsu High School. She didn't often wear cursed power glasses in the past because there were many cursed spirits in the small city where she and Geto Suguru used to live. Although high-level cursed spirits were rare, most of them were small-name and fourth-level cursed spirits. There, third-level cursed spirits were considered relatively powerful. Although the overall level was not strong, they looked creepy and Baichuan Mu was afraid that she would have nightmares at night after seeing them.
But after so many years, Bai Chuanmu has become a little accustomed to it. Besides, there are relatively few curse spirits here, and most of them will be scared away by the second-level curse spirits in the shadows under her feet. So she will not take off her glasses. Anyway, the lenses have no degree and have no effect on her.
Family member Nitrous Oxide was surprised. Only now did she realize that Baichuanmu could not see the cursed spirits. Although Baichuanmu had never avoided this point before, because of her Dihua, she understood it to mean something else.
Ieiri Naoko was stunned for a while, then exclaimed: "Sister Mumu can't see the curse spirits, but she is so powerful? It's really amazing!"
Baichuanmu: ...Hmm?
"That's right," Xia Youjie, who had the same filter, nodded, "Even though my mother can't see cursed spirits and is not good at fighting, she is still very powerful."
Baichuan Mu was silent. It wasn't that she was not good at fighting. She had no fighting ability at all. She could only get rid of some low-level cursed spirits by commanding the cursed spirit bodyguards given to her by Geto Xiayou.
However, Baichuanmu felt that if she was given a curse tool, she would have no problem dealing with the fly on her own. After all, that kind of curse could only make people feel a little uncomfortable.
Gojo Satoru put his hands in his pockets and nodded: "After all, Aunt Mu has the ability to predict the future, so she must be amazing."
"So...what kind of predictive ability is it?" Bai Chuanmu couldn't help but ask. If she continued to give up at this time, she felt that it would be a bit unworthy of her monkey identity.
The three cubs all looked at Bai Chuanmu and remained silent at the same time.
Baichuanmu: ...
Bai Chuanmu's silence was different from the silence of the three cubs. Her silence was speechless, but Bai Chuanmu actually saw what the three cubs were thinking this time. They were probably thinking, "Why are you pretending with us?"
Finally, it was Baichuanmu's good son Xia Youjie who broke the silence. He sighed and said, "Xiaozi, Wu, my mother must have her own intentions."
"I know!" Gojo Satoru said in a long tone, "But I thought that Aunt Mu had already hinted it to Uncle Ye Moth, so why didn't she reveal it to us as well."
Ieiri Shoko asked back, "Didn't we get a prophecy?"
Gojo Satoru raised an eyebrow: "For example?"
Bai Chuanmu was also very curious and revealed some of the things he had revealed.
Ieiri Shoko pointed at herself and said, "I, the singer, can cry."
Baichuanmu: ...I'm sorry, Diva.
Gojo Satoru suddenly realized and said, "Well, now I remember that I will learn how to reverse the technique in the future~"
Xia Youjie chuckled: "Hahaha, Wu, you always say this, why did you only notice it now?"
Gojo Satoru stuck out his tongue, made a face, and said, "What about you, Jie? You should have received the most warnings, right?"
Ieiri Naoko also looked at Geto Suguru with curiosity.
Geto Suguru looked at the two of them and thought, "In the future, you will be the only one who doesn't know how to reverse the technique." Then he looked at Gojo Satoru and thought, "In the future, Satoru will be better than you."
Xiayou Jie narrowed his eyes and observed Gojo Satoru carefully. As of now... he seemed to be a little bit taller than Satoru? In the future, he was actually surpassed.
"What's wrong, Jie?" Gojo Satoru touched his hair, "Look at what I'm doing, my hair was messed up by the glass."
Ieiri Naoko raised her hand: "I can tidy it up for you."
But looking at her bent fingers, it was estimated that she was going to help Gojo Satoru sort it out by tapping. Seeing this, Gojo Satoru raised his sunglasses, rolled his eyes at Ieiri Naoko, and then said to Xia Yujie: "Jie, don't keep us in suspense... Or Aunt Mu, just tell us what prophecy you gave Jie?"
Baichuanmu pursed her lips and smiled without saying anything. She didn't know what these three cubs specifically referred to... She couldn't tell them about the original story of Geto Xiayou's blackening, right? At least Geto Xiayou is a very good child now. After all... He really likes monkeys!
Xia Youjie coughed twice and winked at Baichuanmu: "Ahem... the secret cannot be revealed."
"Hmm?" Gojo Satoru raised his eyebrows and looked at Geto Suguru suspiciously.
Ieiri Naoko was even more decisive and said directly: "Don't be a riddler."
"Really," Xia Youjie put on a black-bellied fox smile, "But maybe Nazawa can also go to the front line instead of just being a logistics person."
"No," Ieiri Naoko made a cross, but then she thought about it and said, "It's okay to go up there and play occasionally."
"Play? Exorcism of cursed spirits is no joke for a sorcerer. It's a job with a very high mortality rate," Gojo Satoru was shocked for once. "Uncle Ye Moth once said to us, 'There is no such thing as a sorcerer dying without regrets.'"
"Hmm..." Ieiri Naoko raised her eyes and yawned, "Really? But I think I will never regret it."
Gojo Satoru chuckled, "Arrogant, I should be the one saying this."
Ieiri Naoko smiled and said, "Same here."
Gojo Satoru curled his lips: "Why are you imitating Jie's speech?"
"After all, I met you guys..." Ieiri Naoko blinked and smiled meaningfully, "That's why I said that."
