Boring

"Why should I share something like that... With someone I just met?" Megumi said looking at Todo.

"it's kinda hard for a closet pervert like him to answer that," Nobara said pointing to him, Azure nodded.

"Shut up. The situation bad enough without you complicating it," Megumi said getting ticked off

"And don't agree with her, Azure..."

"Kyoto.. third year, Aoi Todo. Introduction over. Now that we're friends... hurry up and answer. it can even be a guy.

A person's taste reveals everything about them. Guys who have boring tastes are boring. I don't like boring guys. The Goodwill event gives me a rush.

If my final one ends up being boring who knows what I might do... This is me being nice. Answer me now, and you'll escape with just a few bumps and bruises. So tell me, Megumi... What type of girls do you like?" Todo asked as he bent down even more ready to attack.

'Azure's armed but Kugisaki isn't... We should avoid conflict,' Megumi thought looking at Azure's sword.

Megumi remembered her sister for a moment.

"It's not a bad thing to not forgive people. Megumi, that's your way of showing kindness," He remembered her saying.

"I don't... have a preference. As long as a person is compassionate... Then I don't need anything else," Megumi stated.

Mai Blushed.

"Not a bad answer!" Nobara said smiling while Azure nodded.

"Shut it..."

"I knew it. You're boring... Megumi," Todo said frowning oozing out an intense aura.

*SHAKA

Megumi immediately raised he hands together trying about to call out for one of his spirits sensing Todo was going to fight

*BOOMM

Megumi was sent flying by Todo's powerful strike, The air was thick with tension.

"Ugh...!"

Azure, standing right beside Megumi, reacted instantly. His sharp instincts and protective nature kicked in. Without hesitation, Azure swiftly unsheathed his sword, the polished blade gleaming under the light.

"Megumi!" Nobara exclaimed as she went to go to help but was pulled back by Mai.

"Aw... Poor Megumi!" Mai said as she hugged Nobara rendering her immobile.

"Even though he's a genius who began as a grade two sorcerer... and that half-curse monster... Up against a grade one like Todo Senpai, they're both nothing, but first years," Mai smiled.

"At first I thought you two looked alike, but... forget that. Maki is a... Hundred times prettier." Nobara said.

"You gettin' enough sleep? I can see the pores on your face."

"Watch your mouth..." Mai said angrily as she pulled out a gun aiming it at Nobara's side.

*KRSH

"Or I'll teach you a lesson."

As Todo charged after Megumi, intent on following up with another devastating attack, Azure moved with speed. 

He stepped between Todo and Megumi, raising his sword in a defensive stance. ready to clash against Todo's overwhelming strength.

With a swift, precise motion, Azure slashed at Todo, forcing the larger man to halt his advance. The sheer force behind Azure's attack caused sparks to fly as their auras clashed, the impact resonating through the air. Azure's eyes were focused, his expression unyielding as he stood his ground.

"Hoh..." Todo voiced as he Looked at Azure who was in protective mode.

Megumi quickly got up after struggling a little.

'Todo... Could he be that Todo?!' Megumi thought as he remembered.

Last year, an unprecedented Jujutsu Terrorist attack that came to be known as the "Shinjuku to Tokyo Night Line of a Hundred Demons" was led by the curse Geto.

Six cursed spirits– five grade 1 and one special grade– appeared on the night line.

They were defeated by Todo single-handedly.

'How did a grade 1 sorcerer win against a special grade curse...?' Megumi thought.

"I hear you refuse to use your curse technique," Megumi said.

"Oh, that's just a rumor. I used it against the special grade," Todo said not fazed by the question

'He didn't bother using it against the grade one curse?! He's a beast!' Megumi thought.

"Well isn't that a relief!" He said sarcastically.

Megumi, recognizing, the danger knew he needed to keep his distance. His mind raced as he strategized, realizing that his best option was to rely on his cursed technique. He summoned his toads, commanding them to engage Todo and create a distraction. Simultaneously, he anticipated that Azure would focus on close combat, leveraging his sword skills to counter Todo's relentless onslaught.

*VWOON

However, Todo proved to be on an entirely different level. He effortlessly destroyed the toads, not even needing to tap into his full power. His movements were swift and precise, leaving no opening for counterattacks. Megumi's plan unraveled in an instant as Todo closed the distance between them.

'Was he going easy on me before...?!' Megumi thought.

With a brutal display of strength, Todo grabbed Megumi and slammed him into the ground with such force that the impact reverberated through the air.

"Urgh..!!"

Azure, caught off guard by Todo's incredible speed, was unable to react in time to prevent the attack on Megumi.

As Megumi struggled to recover, Todo turned his attention to Azure. Their eyes locked, and in that split second, Azure steeled himself for the impending clash.

*CLANGG

They fought fiercely, Azure wielding his sword with precision and determination. But it soon became clear that Todo was toying with him, his power and speed far beyond what Azure could match.

Just as Todo prepared to deliver a more powerful strike, intending to end the fight decisively...

"Don't Move."

Inumaki intervened. His voice was imbued with the power of his cursed speech.

The command echoed through the area, compelling Todo to freeze in place, his body betraying him as the cursed energy took hold.

"What are you doing?!!" Panda yelled.

Seizing the opportunity, Panda rushed in with a powerful punch, landing a solid blow that sent Todo stumbling back. The combined efforts of Inumaki and Panda had momentarily halted the fight, giving Azure and Megumi the chance to regroup. Azure, breathing heavily, glanced over at Megumi, who was slowly getting to his feet.

"Phew! Made it just in time," Panda said.

"Fish Flakes!" Inumaki said.

"Or... Not," Panda said as he looked at Azure and Megumi.

"Long time no see, Panda," Todo smiled.

"Why couldn't you wait until the event? Now get out... Or I'm gonna scream," Panda said.

"You don't have to tell me twice. It seems that... This might not be as boring as I thought," Todo said looking at Azure as he knew he was hiding a power that he had.

"Be sure to tell Yuta... to show up," Todo said.

'What a pain...' Panda thought.

"Me Panda. No know human speech."

"If you're gonna continue being a sorcerer... Then you better watch who you pick sides with!" Mai yelled as she looked down at Nobara who was on the floor with blood coming out from her since Mai shot her.

"Mai, what do you think you're doing to... My errand girl?" Mai heard from behind her making her look.

"Oh. You're so worthless I didn't even notice you... Maki," Mai said as she looked at her sister.
