3 Chapter 03

I hope this chapter makes the protagonist's character clear. Despite having his feelings affected by Yuji's memories, he is still an ordinary person, with completely ordinary morals. His goals for joining the Jujutsu school are different from Itadori's, and he's not as noble as Itadori. Don't expect him to be power-mad or anything like that, but don't expect him to be a complete hero either.

________________________________________________________________________________

Looking at that gigantic school that resembled a sanctuary in the middle of the mountains, Itadori couldn't help but marvel.

Seeing it on a screen in an anime format could never compare to seeing the place in person.

Being there, seeing the real Jujutsu school in front of him, made him realize that it was indeed real.

But it was still a surreal landscape in his eyes.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, but you're going to have an interview with the school principal." Gojo, who was walking beside him, suddenly spoke up, which caught Yuji's attention. "And if you bomb, you won't be able to transfer, so do your best."

Raising his thumb to encourage him, Gojo gave a small smile as he continued on his way.

"I don't think this information should be left to the last minute!"

Itadori, seeing the sorcerer smile, couldn't help thinking about him.

Gojo was... Strange, at best. Itadori didn't know him well enough to detail him properly, but he could tell that the man was certainly a good person. Of course, he knew his personality from the anime, but watching someone and meeting them in person were completely different things.

It was a shame to know what his fate was to be in that world.

"Apart from your strength, you're pathetic!"

Itadori, surprised when a new voice suddenly emerged, felt something strange on his cheek, his fingers moving to find a slit that resembled a mouth.

And he immediately realized who it was who had intruded on the conversation.

"Hey, you weirdo! Get out of my face!"

Slapping him across the mouth, he seemed to disappear.

Sukuna was still a mystery to Itadori. The most powerful curse had not yet attempted contact with him, and this was the first time he had had any form of interaction.

He feared that Sukuna would have access to his thoughts and memories, but if that were the case, Itadori believed that he would at least make some comment about it.

But for now it was as if the two of them, despite Sukuna being trapped in his body, were separated in different rooms.

"I'm sorry about that, it's the first time he's spoken out like that."

Feeling his hand tingle and a strange sensation run through his body, he concluded that it could only be a small amount of cursed energy flowing through him.

And seeing how Sukuna's mouth seemed to form on his hand, he must have been right.

"If you-"

But while Sukuna seemed to want to say something, Itadori just slapped his mouth again, making him disappear.

Even though he was unable to speak outside, it seemed that Itadori could still contain him without too much trouble.

Perhaps in the future he could use cursed energy from his own body to prevent any form of manifestation, but until then, slaps should do.

"You seem to be handling Sukuna well." Gojo commented as he looked at Itadori with interest.

Scratching his chin, Yuji sighed in dismay. "Well, it didn't make much difference until a few minutes ago. Perhaps the biggest nuisance is that because of him, I'm now destined to be executed... By the way, how strong was this guy?"

Gojo nodded. "The double-faced Spectre is a ferocious god who imagines himself to have four arms and two heads, but he was actually a human who lived about a thousand years ago.

When magic was at its peak, shamans tried their best to defeat him, but failed. He made a name for himself and eventually died. But even after death, the shamans were unable to eradicate his body, covered in cadaverous wax, which came to our world in the form of cursed objects. He is strong, and without a doubt, he is the king of curses."

Finally arriving at the school premises, the two continued to the entrance.

"At his peak, would you be able to win?"

While Itadori knew the outcome, he wanted to hear Gojo's own opinion.

"It would be a little tricky, but I would win." Saying those words with confidence, Gojo opened the door for Itadori to pass through.

"Late again, Satoru! Eight minutes late!"

Sitting on the floor, the principal of the Jujutsu school seemed focused on sewing a strange doll, countless strange plush around him.

'Damn, that's even more ridiculous in person.

"It's a habit I can't criticize, but I can ask you to correct."

"If you can't, then don't criticize." Sighing, Gojo nodded for Itadori to continue. "At the end of the day, you spent all that time making dolls."

Finally finishing sewing the doll in her hands, Yaga lifted it up to look at it in more detail. "What about the boy?"

"..."

Perceiving this as a cue to introduce himself, Itadori stepped forward and bowed almost automatically, a greeting ingrained in his body, even though Itadori in his old life was not Japanese.

"My name is Yuji Itadori, I'll be in your care."

Yaga didn't seem impressed by anything about Yuji, his expression hardening as he seemed about to start the test.

"Why did you come here?"

Itadori froze for a moment, clearly thinking about the question.

He had already thought about this question.

Why exactly was he there?

He could just stay hidden, try to get away from all this mess, or even let Sukuna act freely.

But he had chosen to follow the original course.

Why exactly?

Yuji had asked himself this question a few times on the way to school, and in the end, he always came up with the same answer.

A simple answer, but one that was sincere.

"Because I don't want to die."

Yuji, above all, was still a normal person in both lives. He feared death as much as anyone, and after being given a second chance, the last thing he wanted was to waste it by dying.

He wouldn't allow it at all.

"Is that it?" Yaga, who had listened to that answer with little interest, raised her hand to make room for a large doll that appeared beside her. "Develop that answer, and do it while facing this cursed body."

!

With the doll exploding towards his opponent, Itadori immediately raised his defense to block a fist.

"Oh, and her name is Cassie."

Boom!

Being thrown away by the force of the punch, Yuji clenched his teeth as he stood up.

"You don't want to die, you say? Many people don't want to die in this world. Becoming a sorcerer will only make that goal more difficult. Perhaps the best option is just to accept execution."

Jumping away to escape an attack, Itadori stood guard as his brow furrowed at Yaga's words.

"I know that not wanting to die is not a noble goal."

Hitting the doll with a punch, his eyes widened as the cursed body bounced off the wall and hit him directly in the stomach, his body flying backwards until it hit the wall.

"But it suits me at the moment!"

Spitting a little blood on the ground, he got up in time to roll to the side to escape a fist.

Even though fighting in his old life hadn't interested him, his wife had still made him take self-defense classes with her. With the memories of the old Yuji and his own, he had the confidence to hold his own in a fight.

!

But even so, fighting a cursed body was still very difficult for him, who couldn't even use cursed energy.

Hit by another punch, Itadori grabbed the doll and threw it away;

"If I have to get the strength to achieve this goal, then no matter how many bones I break in the process, I'll do it!"

Seeing the doll exploding towards him, he jumped to escape at the last second.

"I want to be strong enough to choose how I die."

Boom!

Receiving a sharp punch to the jaw, a furious Itadori turned to the doll and knocked it to the ground, hugging it with all his might while biting its head off.

"I never wanted to get involved in this mess, but since I'm here, I'll eat Sukuna's pieces and not leave my fate in the hands of others."

Receiving a headbutt from the doll, veins popped out on Itadori's forehead, his grip increasing as he began to twist the doll violently.

Yaga, hearing that answer and seeing the boy's determination, gave a satisfied smile.

"Satoru, show him to his lodgings and then explain to him about security.

You've passed. Welcome to Jujutsu School."
