The Hidden Abilities of the Six Eyes

"Release Chloe!"

With anger blazing, Adonis uttered another incantation.

"Written-Style Summoning Magic: Gaíne."

Surrounded by flowing golden runes, he drew a firearm from his waist. Then, he pulled the trigger, and the bullet, initially 12.7 mm in diameter, underwent giantification upon passing through the golden runes.

A 50-meter diameter bullet soared towards Eiji.

"This kid... Isn't he afraid his attack will hit the woman too?"

Raising his left hand, Eiji utilized one of the derivative abilities of the Limitless Technique, Scarlet.

*🔥🔥🔥*

Flames engulfed the colossal bullet, melting it instantly. The temperature of the flames was visibly terrifying.

"Written-Style Summoning Magic—"

Seeing his attack fail, Adonis prepared to use another incantation. However, before he could finish inscribing the formula in the air, Eiji suddenly appeared in front of him.

Grabbing the quill from Adonis's hand, Eiji kicked his stomach, sending the boy flying backward.

"Adonis!!" Chloe cried out in concern.

"Don't worry. He's only lightly injured. I held back." Eiji honestly stated.

Considering his physical fitness, he was concerned that kicking Adonis with full force might puncture his stomach.

"Don't hurt Adonis. Let him go, you can do whatever you want to me."

Chloe pleaded, staring at the young man gripping her neck with pleading eyes.

For her, Adonis was more important than her pride and survival.

"Cough, cough... Chloe, what are you talking about... I can still fight... Cough..."

Hearing that, Adonis struggled to stand but failed. All he could do was glare sharply in the other direction.

"..."

Observing the two, Eiji felt like the villain.

"Hah?"

Chloe was confused as the other party released her neck.

"It seems you misunderstood. I have no ill intentions toward you, even though you're a Witch. Try to remember who initiated the attack first."

"I..."

Prompted by Eiji, Chloe opened her mouth, but no words came out.

She carefully thought, realizing what the other party said was true. In fact, she attacked suspecting the other party to be soldiers of the Kingdom of Lydia.

"What I did was self-defense." Eiji casually said, crossing his arms in front of his chest.

"So, you're not from the Kingdom of Lydia?" Chloe asked.

Apart from the Kingdom of Lydia, she couldn't think of any other country with the ability and resources to hunt Witches.

"Yes. I come from a village that has long isolated itself from the outside world. So, I don't know much about the outside world. Honestly, I only learned about Witches from a man I met in the Sand Land prison."

As before, Eiji used this as his background.

Revealing himself as a traveler was better avoided to prevent malicious intentions.

"So, it was all just a misunderstanding...."

Of course, Chloe didn't fully trust that explanation. But what could she do?

Nothing.

She was weaker than the young man in front of her, and she couldn't force him to reveal the truth, right?

"I'm sorry. All my fault. I sincerely apologize." Chloe apologized.

"Um. Next time, don't randomly attack anyone."

"Yes, I'll be more careful. Oh no, Adonis."

Hearing a groan of pain behind her, Chloe realized she unintentionally forgot her adopted son.

She approached Adonis lying on the ground, holding his stomach.

"Are you okay, Adonis?"

"Do I look okay to you? Besides, the enemy..."

Adonis turned towards Chloe with irritation at her absurd question, then saw Eiji approaching.

"Don't worry. He's not an enemy. It's all just a misunderstanding. TeeHee☆~"

Sticking out her tongue, Chloe tapped his head, wearing a cute expression.

"Chloe, you..."

Adonis couldn't find words.

Was the intense fight just a misunderstanding?

He thought they were both nearly killed by encountering such a powerful enemy!

In the background, Eiji observed how the woman treated the man.

Though called treatment, she only used ice magic to alleviate bruising on the man's stomach.

Eiji suspected she couldn't use healing magic.

After a while, Adonis felt a bit better and managed to stand with trembling legs.

"Don't force yourself, Adonis. Come, hop on my back."

"Don't treat me like a child. This injury is trivial."

Adonis refused to be carried by Chloe.

"Moo~, you're too stubborn."

Seeing him refuse, Chloe stood and ruffled his hair.

"Again, I'm slrry. It's all my negligence. And thank you for being merciful."

Although the fight lasted briefly, she knew she couldn't defeat the white-haired youth.

"My name is Chloe Morgan. And this fierce kid is my adopted son, Adonis."

"Kamiki Eiji."

Shaking hands with Chloe, Eiji introduced himself.

(Hmm? This name sounds similar to people in the Wago Suzure country. Could Kamiki Village be located in that country?)

Drawing her hand back, Chloe made a wild guess after hearing Eiji's name.

As a Witch, she couldn't stay in one place for too long to avoid being found by the Kingdom of Lydia's army. She had visited various countries in the world, and the Wago Suzure country was one of them.

"..."

Silently observing, Eiji did the same.

(Whenever Chloe Morgan uses magic, an unknown energy decreases. Let's call this unknown energy as Mana.)

Eiji and the previous Six Eyes bearers always thought that one of the Six Eyes' abilities was to see the flow of Cursed Energy in a Jujutsu Sorcerer's body.

However, after meeting a Witch, he discovered a new fact. In addition to Cursed Energy, the Six Eyes could also see the flow of other types of energy, such as Mana.

The reason this was only known now was that the Jujutsu Kaisen world didn't have Mana and had its unique power system.

With a lot of information from Lin Fan's memory, Eiji knew that most anime used magic as the foundation of their power system.

Only a few anime had unique power systems like Cursed Energy, Ki, Chakra, Nen, Quirk, Devil Fruit, Breathing Style, etc.

As for Mana, Reiryoku, and Magic Energy, they were common power systems.

In other words, besides Cursed Energy, the Six Eyes could see the flow of other energies in someone's body.

(This ability is similar to Byakugan) Eiji thought.

"Hey, Chloe, what's the difference between humans and Witches?"

After shaking hands, Eiji asked the question.

Through visual observation, he found no difference in Chloe from humans, except that the other party had Mana and could use magic.

"Hey, what are you asking!"

Adonis wasn't pleased to hear that question. He still harbored complaints from the previous fight.

"Stop it, Adonis. It's not surprising if Kamiki is curious. It's very normal to be curious when seeing the outside world."

Chloe quickly stopped him before a conflict arose. She didn't want to make an enemy out of Eiji. Moreover, she was in the disadvantageous position.
