A lord of Mysteries wandering with a Sword

At the end of the Lord of Mysteries' life of many years of watching the world die out, it had finally ended and so he sought a different end to his own powers. He would leave it to chance. For another soul he would see the end of his life ended in a more, horrific fashion, to most. A final destination-esk ending one would even say. as his soul wandered its way a flash of light and he is no longer aware of where his soul is moving shifting colors and bright streaks of light and he finds himself in front of a fiery blaze. A new story for one who was to become the wrought iron hero, and a new beginning for the current one. —————————////—————————— planned worlds include but not in any order; Tamriel: oblivion and skyrim (different visits) JJK Universe all artwork is owned by their respective owners and all characters from their various franchises are owned by their respective companies.

Shopping and First Lesson

There was a bit of a fuss after that, In the end it was decided the Head of the Gojo clan had too much money and could afford to cover my "getting started" expenses. 

Thus a very happy Utahime and Akari were dragging me along several different stores. Most of the things were the essentials to modern society. Phone, Laptop, a watch, And of course clothes. 

Being made to play model for them was mildly fun, for a time. In the end we took the rest of the day, which allowed for them to ready a room for me on campus. Thank you for a storage ring! One of the best ideas to come from my brain. 

Akari was happy to give me the phone numbers of all of the staff as well. One less thing to worry about. Once everything was set up in my room my thoughts drifted to what would be my first class. 

Just before I went to sleep, I had an idea. Which I spent my dreaming time fleshing out.

Come the next morning I got up early to prepare a few things and of course, breakfast. Yuji was my aid for the morning cooking. We decided to create some side dishes and would take orders for Omelets as the entrees. Was pretty fun doing this as with Shirou around one never really got the chance to cook that much. 

While I was cooking I had told Yuji of the time I cooked for a dragon. He didn't quite believe me at first but a vivid imagination and Illusions of the event were enough to prove the point. Paarthurnax was a wonderfully chatty guest to have, even if he couldn't fit at a dinner table.

Ombra rejoined me as well to enjoy a nice meal after the errands my mother sent her on in this world.

When everyone was practically zombie walking into the cafeteria, they perked up quick when they had their meals. I decided to announce to the students to dress ready to move around a lot and to meet by the entrance to the forested area of the school grounds. 

They meandered back to their dorms and were ready by the end of the hour. Walking up to the gaggle of arguments was understandably funny to me as their arguments themselves were childish. 

Hearing my giggles they all straightened up and waited for me. I was dressed lightly as I was yesterday, the breezy shirts were always a favorite. The change up? Slim sweatpants were on my legs. They were nice to have in the later months of the year.

As I had everyone's attention I decided to be a little formal.

"Welcome everyone to Physical Education, or P.E. for short. In my class I will be going over individual physical health and strengthening tips. Exercise and martial arts will be the bread and butter of the class. 

Today, will be more of an assessment. A way to see how everyone is right now, with some fun to it." 

Looking between them all I noticed the particularly strong ones among them might have a bit of an advantage... until they have everyone against them.

"For today we will be playing... Tag!" I announced only for them to deadpan at me. Heh. 

"But it will be a little different in my version of the game, Prey vs Hunters. The person "IT" will be all but one person. Your goal will be to have the most time as the hunted person."

Some widening of eyes and also some scheming whispers were traded at my words. 

"Of Course! There will be rules to follow.

First Rule: If another person's cursed energy or body offensively touches you, you are caught. Exceptions exist for some non harmful techniques such as Toudou's boogie Woogie not counting. But If you are touched, the person who touched you is now the Prey and you are a Hunter.

Second Rule: Once announced the new Prey will have 5 seconds as everyone is frozen. I'll handle that part with some enchanted bands that will be wrapped around your arms.

Third Rule: No lethal! No Maiming. I may be able to heal you back from that, but it doesn't mean I want to. If any participant is seemingly about to commit such an act I have punishments ready and waiting.

Remember the one with the most time as Prey will win in the end. I promise to create something that suits your fighting style if you win. Any questions?"

The whispers increased as I finished but no questions. I didn't mind their schemes as soon some would be greedy for the prize.

Pulling a crate from my ring, The inside of it held a number of white bands. Holding one in my hand it suddenly turned red, a little function I had enchanted into it this morning. 

"Red means you are the pray, white means you are a hunter. Come on up and after everyone has one and we start, they will automatically and randomly choose one of you."

They did so and after everyone had one I said, "And now you have one minute to rush into the forest. After the one minute mark it will officially begin. Have fun!"

Then I "traveled" before their eyes, disappearing and reappearing next to the onlooking teachers that decided to observe. "Yo"

Principal Yoshinobu was still chilling when I appeared. Gojo was able to sense a disturbance before my arrival. Utahime jumped though.

"So any thoughts on my little game?" Gojo was grinning as he saw some underlying things I mentioned in the rules.

"Spectacular! I almost want to join them." I nodded to the eccentric Gojo and looked to Utahime, She pursed her lips in thought and said. "Why only one person though. The weaker members would just have no chance at all."

"And they would most likely band together. Choosing who they want to win would be the hard part but then it becomes a king of the hill situation. And that is where they can shine." Was my retort, but I wasn't done yet.

"These kids saw what happened in Shibuya or were indirectly exposed to it from the others stories. Being able to run, make allies, and still protect yourself is the key to this game.

For the stronger ones it will be a struggle, and they can dig out their potential against numerous foes at once. Everyone is the enemy in that forest whether they like it or not."

chuckling I remembered what I was doing before I had appeared in front of them all. 

"There are also training weapons all around the forest. Maybe they might find something they like to fight with?"

The Kyoto principal chimed in stroking his beard, "An interesting game, and multifaceted too. Fine work young man." Giving a nod to the man I thanked him before waving and leaving them to watch. They already were using cameras all over the forest to enjoy the show. They would probably relocate inside the classroom after this. 

In the skies above the forest I appeared. With a quick clearing of my voice that I enhanced, "Let the Game... Begin!"

{Jujutsu Highschool, Forest}

[Zenin Maki]

I gripped the sword stuck in the ground by my feet. It was a western styled long sword. The edges were blunted but... all in all it was an easy to wield sword. The voice of the teacher, strange as it was that he became one, rang out from above us. 

"Let the Game... Begin!"

Looking to my armband it didn't change. So much for the easy time as people were getting used to this game. Taking a deep breath I moved. Time to hunt.

The words of the teacher from yesterday rang in my head all night and all today as it went by. "Who cares."

For a while I didn't understand just what he meant. Of course people care! They Cared enough to put me down and try to beat me. Limit me. But then I really thought about it.

I cared. I cared what they thought. Even if it was spite, I cared enough to make them feel that way. To feel as If they lost something. but... were they even worth that?

My thoughts were interrupted as I felt movements in front of me. A fight. Since I began to no longer touch the cursed energy inside me I felt more and more... free. And with that I finally began to feel more cursed energy. I couldn't see it, but I could feel it in the world around me. 

Rushing ahead I jumped and gripped a branch. A monkey the family called me, no US. Zenin Toji was just as disregarded as myself. A grin formed on my face as the wind blew around me. Emiya-Sensei was right, Who cares.

I gripped the head of Momo as I passed her in the air. She was just dodging on her broom through the trees when she came right into my path. Spinning with her momentum I tossed her down as my band changed to red. A buzzer rang out across the forest as the others down below were frozen in place like he said.

Their eyes could move but that was all. A small giggle left me as I could see the panic in their eyes as the weak "prey" they were going after just changed. 

But who said I would run? A grin on my face as I looked to the little blue haired Miwa. They became unfrozen as they saw me begin to rush them. Lets give them a workout shall we? 

{Jujutsu High, Classroom}

[POV Gojo Satoru]

Leaning back in my chair I watched as the students were falling hook line and sinker for the game. A few teamed up in hopes to make a member of theirs a prey. But such hopes went out the window when a Maki shows up. 

Though she didn't get to keep her throne for long as a number ganged up on her. She did dodge them for a full 3 minutes though. 

The students really seemed to be having fun with it though. Unaware they were all being evaluated by all the teachers present. We would be planning our lessons going forwards from the assessment given by our new Kohai. 

Some of the teachers had to leave for missions that were pilling up though so they wouldn't get to see things up close like this. 

The door to the classroom opened interrupting my thoughts as the last of my cute students walked in. He held his gentle smile as he walked in and greeted me.

"Gojo-Sensei, Its good to see you in fine health." 

"Polite as ever Yuta-kun, Come join us!" waving to the seat next to me. As he sat down I told him of some of the things that happened and also introduced the teacher floating in the skies watching over the game. 

He was mildly interested in the teacher. Upon my asking, he mentioned how the council had tried to order him to capture my new Kohai for questioning. Which only made me scoff at the higher-ups. They really don't learn.

"I flat out rejected them." he stated. Continuing he said, "After hearing the rumors of what you did to their building I guessed it would soon come where you either just killed them all or just made your own thing."

Looking to the celling I thought of the conversations I had with my Kohai's mother's bird. She told me of the idiots' various deals they had committed even when we were dealing with emergencies of new Curse Users and the freed Curses.

"No telling, but they will no longer strictly command Jujutsu high. The principals have agreed to taking jobs from them but they no longer hold any authority worth mentioning as of yesterday. And with myself and Emiya-kun they really have no weight to throw around."

That brought a chuckle to my little student. Ahh, they grow up so fast. Not a few years ago he was a scared kitten. Now he stands with the special grades.

"I'm looking forward to meeting with this new teacher. He seems to have quite the imagination to make this game. Not to mention skill." he remarked off handed.

Heh, he really is full of surprises. I wonder if he can take me along on some trip to another world?

{Jujutsu High, Forest}

[POV Mai Zenin]

'Fucking fuck fuck!'

Thoughts were running at a mile a minute as I continued to run and hide. My armband red by a stroke of luck, though now that I was the prey I don't think luck had much to do with it.

Another arrow flew by my head as I continued to run. Creation was already used today to land my lucky shot on Panda. My bullet had landed just as he came out of a clearing. 

I still do not understand why I have been able to persist this long. How long has it been anyways that I had been running. Fuck! 

Gripping a tree to help shift my weight to turn a corner faster I ducked under a very focused pink haired Yuji and shot a rubber bullet into his forehead. I rolled off the momentum and continued to run.

My senses were going haywire from all of the different angles I was being targeted. My instincts were on a hair trigger as I planted a foot on a tree and pushed off. 

That same tree now had an arrow bounce off of it. KAMO I will get you for this!

As I picked myself up quickly I turned to see Miwa in a full lunge trying to grab me. My hand felt a large Bo staff on the ground which I planted in her path and staked it to the ground. Her stomach felt the blunted end which kept her just out of reach. 

Then I felt a hand on my head. A heavy pat that was friendly in nature, Something I missed dearly. But now I was frozen. A buzzer going through the air.

The hand patted me twice more, and like the wind that whipped from the presence it was gone.

A sigh left me as I was unfrozen and sat down. A crumpled Miwa lying on the ground a bit away. I wondered just how long I lasted?

Want to play a game?

you must give your stones to the contraption to get your next chapters.

Failure to do so... idk.

AN:// Having some fun with the SOL stuff for a bit. Also have plans for the Zenin Clan with their arrogance. With how stupid they have shown themselves in the anime and manga thought it fitting to have them as an Antagonist. Stay tuned!
