(AN: Leave a comment and review, your feedback helps me a lot.)

As Toji approached the door of the room where his wife and son were staying, a sudden shiver ran down his spine, making him hesitate for a moment. He shook off the feeling and gently opened the door. Inside, he found his wife, Hina, cradling their baby in her arms. When he entered, hina looked up, concern written all over her face.

"Toji, what happened?" she whispered urgently, aware of her sleeping son.

"You could have woken the baby."

Toji sighed softly, trying to dispel the discomfort he felt.

"I'm sorry, it must have been just me

imagination," he murmured, stepping further into the room.

"Are you two okay?"

Hina nodded, a tired but relieved smile gracing her lips.

"Yes, we're fine. I managed to regain some of my strength, and our little one is fine," she assured, gently rocking the baby back to sleep.

"I see," Toji replied, his voice tinged with a hint of concern. "Well, I'll go get us something to eat then. Wait here."

Hina laughed softly, the sound warm and comforting in the dimly lit room. "There's nowhere for me to go, anyway," she teased lightly, her eyes shining with affection.

Toji managed a weak smile in response, although his mind was still troubled by the strange sensation he had felt earlier.

"I guess you're right," he agreed calmly, before turning to leave the room in search of sustenance for his little family."

When Toji left the room, his once calm and gentle expression hardened into one of cold indifference. Doubt gnawed at his mind as he pondered the disturbing sensation he had experienced moments ago.

"I was just imagining things?" he muttered to himself, his voice full of skepticism.

"I could have sworn I felt a strong cursed energy. Although it was weak, its potential is equal, if not much greater, than that brat."

Lost in his thoughts, Toji was abruptly interrupted by the appearance of a man in an elegant suit, Shiu.

"Hey..." Shiu began shyly, but Toji's icy gaze momentarily silenced him.

"What do you want, Shiu?" Toji's tone was short and his patience was thin.

Shiu, undeterred by Toji's behavior, continued eagerly. "I have wonderful news for you today. Are you-"

Before Shiu could finish his sentence, Toji abruptly interrupted him, his voice sharp and dismissive. "No." The word hung in the air, final and resolute, as Toji turned away, dismissing Shiu without a second thought.

"Why? You always accept a mission without thinking twice, so why refuse now?" Shiu pressed, his curiosity evident in his tone.

"Shui, my wife, gave birth to our first baby a few minutes ago," Toji explained, his voice tinged with urgency. "And as soon as I left the room, I felt three presences on top of a building not far from where my wife and son are resting. Now that I know that my clan wants me and my family to die, I can't afford to leave them behind. The Zenin clan is wicked and cruel, willing to do anything to preserve their status as one of the Three Great Sorcerer Families of the Jujutsu world. protect my family."

Shiu nodded understandingly, his expression grim. "Okay, but if you change your mind, feel free to call me."

As soon as Shiu left, Toji ran to a nearby convenience store and bought ready-to-eat food.

After several minutes of brisk walking, he arrived at his wife's room.

Toji soon approached his wife who was resting with their son, Toji sat next to her while his wife asked if he wanted to hold little Hiroto, Toji agreed while cradling his son with the purest delicacy.

Toji focused his senses, honed through years of training, to examine the baby's body. What he discovered shocked him to the core. His son possessed the greatest reserve of cursed energy of any Jujutsu sorcerer who had ever lived.

"My son's cursed energy reserve is greater than that brat's," Toji muttered, a smile spreading across his face.

"This will cause the entire world of Jujutsu sorcerers to change," he mused aloud, excitement and anticipation coursing through him.

"Now that a new sorcerer has been born with immense cursed energy, the balance of the world will change greatly. How will the three clans react to this?"

While Toji was lost in his thoughts about the implications of his son's immense cursed energy, his wife's voice interrupted his reverie.

"Hey, what are you mumbling about? Are you crazy holding our son?" Hina's teasing tone brought Toji back to the present moment, his mouth full of the food he had just bought.

"No, it's just that it's the first time I've heldIt's a baby, so it's a new experience for me," Toji replied with a laugh, trying to hide his deeper thoughts.

"Hahaha, I see. Now then," Hina laughed,

raising both hands in a gesture.

Playful.

Toji looked at her, confused, wondering what she was doing, until she rolled her eyes and pointed at their baby. Understanding dawned on him, and he quickly handed the baby to her.

As Toji watched his wife cradling their son, a feeling of pride and determination welled up within him. "Although my son's reserve of cursed energy is still empty, it will slowly fill up," he thought to himself. "And when he grows up, I will teach him everything he needs to know about wielding a cursed tool. I will train him in hand-to-hand combat and give him experience in exorcising cursed spirits."

Lost in contemplation, Toji couldn't help but marvel at the potential his son possessed. But in the midst of his pride, a sobering thought crossed his mind: "My wife just gave birth to a monster."
