Random thought.

At what point in the manga did Megumi get his fraud status?

I knew he would summon Mahoraga on 1F Sukuna, but what solidified the allegations?

A Few Days Ago: Suguru Geto

Lying down in my bed, I stare at the ceiling.

*Sigh* I didn't know what I expected when I heard that Satoru and Naohiro would protect the Star Plasma Vessel.

Since they both have...interesting personalities, I assumed that I would be the one to go instead of one of them.

Am I disappointed that I wasn't chosen?

No.

I have just felt left out recently. Even with my cursed technique being strong, I haven't been able to keep up with the two of them.

Even if I'm supposed to be one of the future special grades, I feel weak when comparing myself to them.

Shoko also doesn't keep up with them, but she plays a different role. While she doesn't have a cursed technique, she was born with a natural talent for reverse cursed technique, making her extremely useful with healing.

I can't help but smile.

It was funny.

Satoru and Naohiro shifted the world's balance, strengthening cursed spirits. It's ironic that I am considered strong when my technique mostly relies on the cursed spirits I consume.

My body is trained, and I've learned how to utilize cursed spirits in battle, but the main point is that they wouldn't be nearly as effective without those two.

I've tried lecturing Satoru on the existence of Jujutsu, but I learned something. Only the strong get the chance to force their beliefs on people.

If we don't use Jujutsu for non-Jujutsu users, what is the point of it existing? We are given this strength to protect the common people from our evil world.

(A/N - "*Monkeys.")

Every once in a while, I like to sit down and think about irrelevant things like this. It makes me seem like a depressed pre-teen, but it helps me sort through my thoughts.

*Knock*

*Knock*

*Knock*

Hm, who could it be?

Getting up, I walk to my door. I grab the door handle and push it open.

...

...

...

I smile. "Hi, sensei; what can I do for you at this hour?"

Sensei looks irritated. "Am I the new mission delivery service? *Sigh* Anyways, the higher-ups have assigned you a mission."

I tilt my head to the side before narrowing my eyes. "Why now? Shouldn't they be worrying about the Star Plasma Vessel? Also, it is pretty late. Is it important enough to head out immediately?"

He pondered for a moment. "I've learned not to question those geezers. Most of their decisions are confusing. Gojo and Zenin have already left for their mission, so I guess that they wanted me to deliver the news to you.

Rubbing my forehead, I sigh. "*Sigh* Alright, what do they need me to do?"

All he does is hand me a sheet of paper. "The specifics are on there, but a grade-one curse needs to be exorcised. It is a vengeful spirit, so I'm guessing that they want it taken care of to avoid the possibility of it becoming a special grade."

A wide smile appears on my face.

Sensei cringes. "Ew, stop it. That face doesn't fit on you."

I grab my face before turning it back to normal. "Sorry, I can't help but be excited to add a grade one to my arsenal."

He only raises an eyebrow. "Yeah, yeah, whatever. Just return quickly if something goes wrong with the Star Plasma Vessel."

My eyebrow raised. "You think those two are going to mess it up?"

I received a deadpan stare. "Yeah...right. I'll be back soon."

Sensei nods his head before grunting. "*Hmph* When I become principal, I will assign someone else to the delivery service. Do they really have no one else?"

I give him a closed-eye smile. "Thanks a lot, sensei. I really appreciate you going out of your way to assign me a mission."

He narrows his eyes. "I'm unsure if you're mocking me or genuinely thankful."

Ah, that's right. "Satoru?"

He crosses his arms. "Satoru."

It seems like we both had an understanding with one another.

...

The mission was labeled as urgent, which meant I needed to remove it as soon as possible. It was tiring when I got to the abandoned building at 1:00 AM.

As much as I preach about Jujutsu society, it can suck sometimes. Hah, I'm starting to understand what Utahime was going through.

Now then.

A black mist appears behind me, and two cursed spirits come out. "Search the building and notify me immediately if you encounter anything abnormal."

Since I wanted to ensure this went smoothly, I sent the Rainbow Dragon because he has the strongest hide out of my cursed spirits and a small grade-three curse to do scouting.

...

I wait outside for a minute before I get feedback.

Running into the building, I went up the stairs and entered the room my grade three curse notified me of.

When I entered the room, the last thing I expected was a person instead of a curse. It was a woman with white hair and a red streak.

Then it clicked with me. "Oh, you're Nishida from Kyoto, correct? Were you sent here to exorcise the curse?"

Instead of replying to me, she spoke while looking at the corner of the room. "This is a pain in the ass. Why bother with this kid? Shouldn't the girl be on our list?"

I was initially confused but was startled when I saw a woman with black hair and a scar that looked like it had been poorly stitched together.

I'm not sure why, but I started to get a bad feeling.

I knew who Nishida was. Was this woman her assigned grade-one sorcerer?

The woman smiled as she waved at me. "Hello, my name is Kaori. We're going to get to know each other very well."

Something is wrong.

I call back my rainbow dragon.

*BOOM*

He comes crashing through the wall before getting between me and the two of them.

My eyes narrow. "What are you doing here 'Kaori'? I've never heard of you before."

Ignoring me, she looked at Nishida and said, "Uraume, can you take care of it? I don't want to mess up my body too much."

Uraume?

Nishida narrowed her eyes. "So that's why I'm here. You didn't want to go overboard, so you use my technique."

Summoning cursed spirits, I send them to attack.

We can talk about this later. I need to figure out what is happening, so I'll restrain them for now.

Nishida stood up and put her hand on the ground. "[Icefall]"

Suddenly, all of my cursed spirits were impaled and instantly exorcised, aside from Rainbow Dragon. However, he is in no condition to move.

My eyes narrowed even more as more black mist started to surround me. "What is your goal here? What are you after?"

...

...

...

Kaori smiles. "I'm after your body."
