11 Chapter Ten

"Yuki!"

I blinked, looked up from the book about cursed energy I was reading, and raised an eyebrow at Yaga.

"Pay attention to the board."

He was explaining Clonal Anergy... What was this? The medical course?

Sighing, I stretched my back and slumped in my seat, what was the subject I was in again?

"Yeah, sure."

I shrugged, ignoring Yaga's disapproving look as he went back to explaining history.

I looked back down at the book, fuck history, Jujutsu is where it's at. Binding vows were much more interesting than two plus two which equaled five.

A crumpled paper hit my head, and I looked over to see Gojo trying to look innocent. I sighed and allowed my cursed energy to condense water around his pants.

Two days, and I was putting more effort into learning than I had in years.

The real wonder was how the hell Gojo passed all his classes.

I flipped the page and continued reading.

This time, it was about a simple domain, which reminded me of the Domain expansion Akira used when we met.

My eyes narrowed as I started reading. There was nothing about how someone could use it. I sighed and continued the reading.

Overall, the haul was fruitful.

"...I... What?"

I questioned, looking at Akira like he was an idiot.

"What don't you get? It's like Foooh and you spread your cursed energy around you."

What the fuck?

I tilted my head to the side, putting my hand on my chin.

The fuck?

I sighed and shook my head.

"I don't get it at all."

He groaned and leaned backward, falling on the grass from his cross-legged sitting position.

"Hey! Newbie! Come on, have a friendly spar with me."

I raised an eyebrow and looked over at the white-haired teen, letting out the fakest sounding "Oooh" I could muster.

"Was this what you were pondering when you wet your pants? I must commend your courage, which must have taken a lot from you to build up."

Akira cackled and Geto joined in from behind Gojo. Gojo looked annoyed and shoved Geto's face aside.

"Very funny."

I rolled my eyes and stood up, walking over. Gojo was... For the lack of a better word, like a twig, meaning he was reliant on his cursed technique.

Which I still had no idea about, other than the blue orb that he threw at the skeleton curse.

Contrary to Gojo, I was physically fitter, my diet and workout routine made sure that I would not keel over when going up the stairs.

I took off my zip-up hoodie, revealing a simple black compression shirt.

Gojo looked down at my body and raised an eyebrow. I just ignored him and went to the field, stretching my hands over my head.

"Come on pretty boy."

I called out, letting my fingers disentangle from each other, and put my hands inside my jogger pants.

Cursed energy flowed into my muscles, and my bones along with coated my skin.

The layer on top of my skin started circulating draining back into my body and out again so none of it was wasted.

I brushed my hair back as I reached a little further from the white line that bordered the field.

"Nah, we gotta move in deeper."

I raised an eyebrow at the white-haired teen as he walked past me. With a shrug, I followed.

"Is that what you say to girls?"

He scowled and I chuckled, following him deeper into the field. Slowly we reached deeper and deeper inside as my mind whirled. What was his cursed technique? That blue orb from two days ago seemed to suck in everything around it... Gravity? No, I would have felt the pull too, back then.

"Alright, this should be far enough."

I looked back at the other two, who turned into three since the girl, Shoko, had joined Akira and Geto, looking at the two of us with an expression I could not see.

I see, so he wants to get me away from the others so they don't get caught up in the crossfire... would be pretty smart if I didn't figure it out.

I turned to him and tensed my muscles, narrowing my eyes at his relaxed pose.

"Begin wherever you want, newbie, you can have the first move."

I narrowed my eyes at him, spotting his blue eyes glowing... Letting out a hum, I formed a water spear and sent it at him. I watched curiously as it stopped a few inches away from his body, contradicting what my cursed energy was telling me. It was still being drained, meaning I was still wasting my energy to keep the form and send it forward...

It hit me like a brick in the face. Space, he could control space. I chuckled, perhaps, maybe just a bit, I might have miscalculated. However, it was too late to go back now.

The smug bastard smirked at me and I knew, I wanted to punch this bitch in the face.

I grinned and crouched down, releasing a burst of Cursed energy from my feet, hurling me forward.

How could I beat this guy? Could anything even touch him? No, I knew for a fact that my water touched his pants last lesson. But why did it?

I slowed down when I got close enough and I raised an eyebrow. I could still feel myself going forward... just like my water spear, meaning he was making the space between me and himself longer...

Oh, what the hell.

I sighed out and rolled my eyes as I was blasted back when Gojo thrust his palm forward.
