Tsukumo Yuki’s Anger

Facing Eiji's question, Yuki immediately answered without needing to think.

"Kamiki-kun, I also have two methods, but my method is different from yours. First, erase all of humanity's Cursed Energy. Second, make humans able to control their Cursed Energy."

"The first method is a good idea, there's even an example already."

"Zenin Toji."

"Oh, you guessed it already? Wait, how did you know about him?"

Yuki's impression of Eiji slightly improved. Even before she told him, he had guessed.

"Zenin Toji, the Sorcerer Killer. Even though he's dead, his reputation is still remembered by many. Plus, he was killed by Gojo-sensei, so it makes sense that I know about him, right?"

"You have a point..."

Listening to his explanation, Yuki no longer concerned herself with this, and she returned to the main topic.

"There are many cases where Heavenly Restriction reduces human Cursed Energy to normal limits. But he's the only one in the world who doesn't have any Cursed Energy at all."

"The interesting part isn't just that, even though Zenin Toji doesn't have Cursed Energy, he can sense Cursed Energy with his senses. After getting rid of all the Cursed Energy, he became different from an ordinary human. He also has resistance to Cursed Spirits. In short, he's a superhuman."

After that, she glanced at the young man beside her with envy.

"Kamiki-kun, you also have a Heavenly Restriction, right? Even so, you not only didn't lose all of your Cursed Energy, but you also received physical enhancement blessings. Truly, you're a lucky man."

Yuki has visited many places throughout Japan, and even to other countries. She has seen dozens of people with Heavenly Restriction.

Generally, there are only two types of Heavenly Restriction.

The first type, people who lose their Cursed Energy to normal human limits, but receive physical enhancements like a superhuman. An example is Zenin Maki.

The second type, people who are blessed with abundant Cursed Energy capacity, but in return, they will lose something important. An example is Muta Kokichi, who has had a frail body since birth.

This is the first time Yuki has seen someone born with Heavenly Restriction who is blessed with superhuman physical abilities but still retains their Cursed Energy.

Isn't the world unfair?

"Tsukumo Yuki, don't describe it as if I didn't pay any price. Heavenly Restriction did give me superhuman physical blessings, but it also took half of my Cursed Energy. If it weren't for the large Cursed Energy I had from the beginning, I might be just like Zenin Maki or Zenin Toji."

Eiji doesn't like the way others describe him.

"Haha, sorry, sorry. I didn't mean it like that. Kamiki-kun, you're the luckiest owner of Heavenly Restriction among the ones I've ever met. Don't take the wrong path like Geto-kun, okay?"

"The future is uncertain, I dare not guarantee what kind of person I will be in the future. Don't expect too much from me. Tsukumo Yuki."

"Let's end this serious conversation."

Yuki's serious atmosphere disappeared, and she returned to her cheerful self in an instant.

"..."

Seeing the change in her mood in a short time, Eiji is now sure that a woman's metaphor can change their expression faster than flipping through a book's pages.

"By the way, aren't you tired of calling my full name continuously? Just call me Tsukumo-chan or Yuki-chan."

"-chan?"

Seeing the woman in her 30s acting cute, Eiji was speechless.

"Auntie, you should be aware of yourself. You're not suitable anymore—"

*Swoosh*

Before he could finish his sentence, a punch with intent to kill flew towards his head.

Without intending to dodge, he just silently watched the punch stop in front of him.

"Hey, Kamiki-kun, who did you call auntie? Repeat that, I might have misheard."

Though Yuki smiled, there were veins bulging on her forehead.

She was truly ruthless in her punch. It's just that she had no way to neutralize Infinity, which made her just glare angrily.

"Who else if not you? Tsukumo Yuki, you're already in your thirties, it's time to stop wandering aimlessly. Most women your age have already built families and raised children. If you remain single, no man will marry you."

Others might fear Yuki, given her status as a Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer. However, Eiji isn't afraid at all.

He doesn't feel weaker than the other party. Therefore, he boldly expresses his original opinion without worrying about offending her.

"You damn brat! Don't think you can get away easily!"

Yuki's anger erupted, Cursed Energy surged throughout her body, and she even summoned her Shikigami, Garuda.

She's serious!

"I'm not idling like you. In that case, I'll take my leave."

Not wanting to conflict with her over trivial matters, Eiji decides to teleport elsewhere.

"Damn it! This isn't over, you brat! Women are vengeful, you'll remember this."

Dismissing Garuda behind her, Yuki spoke coldly.

No woman likes being called old, and she's no exception.

"Let's find Gojo-kun. He might know where that brat is."

Thinking this, she wanted to leave Jujutsu High. Unfortunately, she was stopped by Principal Yaga and asked many questions. Moreover, the previous surge of Cursed Energy felt very clear.

...

On the other side, Eiji walks out of the alley.

"Why was she so angry? I just told the truth and gave good advice... Then why..."

Seeing the crowd rushing as if chased by time, he doesn't understand the reason behind Yuki's anger towards him.

"No wonder people prefer sweet lies over bitter honesty."

No longer thinking about it, Eiji joins the crowd of pedestrians.

The location is not far from the Onodera Family Confectionery Shop; he plans to spend time there enjoying his hobby of eating sweets.

In less than 10 minutes, he arrives at his destination.

Opening the door, he sees many seats already occupied by customers.

"Welcome... Oh, it's you, Kamiki-kun." Onodera Nanako smiles warmly.

"Good day, Nanako-san."

Standing in front of the display case filled with various cakes and sweets, Eiji points out his choice of cake, and Nanako will fetch it and place it on a plate.

"It seems like business is going well."

Taking the plate from Nanako's hand, Eiji engages in small talk.

"It's all thanks to Gojo-kun and Kamiki-kun for restoring the strategic location, so my little pastry shop is known by many."

"I see."

"Aren't you in school? Skipping isn't a good thing."

It's still busy now, Eiji came with his school uniform, so it's no wonder Nanako misunderstood.

"This isn't skipping. We're having training outside. My task is done, so I'm taking a walk before returning to school."

"I see. Ah, sorry, Kamiki-kun, I have to attend to other customers."

"No problem."

Then, Nanako continued serving the new customers.

Eiji sat in a seat located in the corner, and began to enjoy the cake while watching short videos on YouTube.
