The eyes of the three mutated, their eyes, about to burst, stared intently at the two who were speaking, and their bodies began to soften like mud, as if the technique buried in their bodies had been activated, and the words in their mouths were blurred, and three pools of "mud" began to gather, and began to grow like a meat tree.
"..."
Itadori was a little difficult to act for a moment, no, he didn't know how to act, the other side were humans!
Was exorcising them not the same as killing people?!
The words his grandfather had given him were to save more people, but now he had to kill people! What should he do?!
"Kill…"
The "giant tree" moved its two thick legs, and the faces of the three people were perfectly presented on the trunk, and dozens of whip-like hands began to wave rapidly, the speed was so fast that afterimages appeared, and anything that was touched was destroyed in an instant.
"If you don't act, he'll tear down this movie theater." Yuuki urged.
"I… can't do it…"
Itadori's eyes were full of horror, and his eyes were erratic, he could accept exorcising cursed spirits, because that could allow more people to survive, but the other side at this moment wasn't a cursed spirit, but humans!!
Once a person knew that they were going to kill someone, they would always have so-called burdens in their hearts, he didn't want to kill people, even if they turned into cursed spirits, after all…
They were crying…!!
He asked in a trembling tone, "Yuuki… senpai, can't you use 『Reverse Cursed Technique』 to turn them back?"
"No, their soul forms have been completely changed, killing them is the best way to give them relief."
"...Then that is to say, they could be saved before they transformed?"
Itadori asked softly.
"No."
Yuuki looked at the cursed spirit that was slowly approaching, and said, "You watched the video, right, their soul forms have already changed, so there's no saving them, let's stop talking, even if he's walking slowly, he'll be here soon, exorcise him, this is their salvation."
"...I understand."
Itadori took a deep breath, and looked at the cursed spirit that was approaching, the panic in his eyes proved that he was still hesitant, and just as he was about to open his mouth to continue saying something.
"Thud!!"
Yuuki exorcised him directly with brute force alone!
His solid right arm bulged with veins, the ground exploded, and the huge cursed spirit was instantly annihilated.
"You're too kind, Itadori, you're not suitable to participate in this kind of mission with me."
Yuuki pulled out his right arm from the cursed spirit's body, and shook off the blood stains, he was now in a situation where he would definitely not use cursed energy if he could exorcise with taijutsu.
Although curses could only be exorcised with curses, he only needed to lightly cover a layer on his fist, hardcore exorcism.
Looking at Yuuki-senpai, who had a smile on his face in the darkness, Itadori realized the difference between himself and him at this moment!
He didn't care whether the enemy was human or not, as long as they were enemies, he would strangle them, he would never be soft-hearted, he had no compassion, no sympathy, and even enjoyed it!
But even so, he couldn't say anything, after all, he was his senpai, no matter how he treated the enemy, he would always treat his own people with a smile.
A very gentle, both serious, and morbid senpai… "I'm sorry, senpai, I was soft-hearted, there won't be a next time!"
Itadori said with his head lowered, he wanted to become stronger, to become stronger to protect more people, he couldn't quit this mission no matter what, he had to carry it through to the end!
"Is that so, that's good, I'm going to wash my hands."
Yuuki said softly as he passed by Itadori, who was feeling guilty, "No matter what the enemy is like, you can't sympathize, otherwise you'll be the one who dies, whether it's you, or Megumi, Kugisaki, Himura, I'll teach you all like this, what I prioritize teaching you as a senpai isn't fighting, but teaching you how not to die."
"...Understood."
Itadori, who felt the pressure from his senpai, could only lower his head and admit his mistake at this moment, and was also deeply reflecting on himself in his heart, if he was still so naive, he might endanger Fushiguro and the others in the future.
Next…
He would definitely exorcise them, after all, that was "salvation" for them, Itadori Yuji was hypnotizing himself like this, after all, he had come along, and he had to be prepared to change himself.
He wasn't a weakling, he wanted to save more people!
"Alright, now that we've finished dealing with this place, let's go find Yoshino Junpei, after all, skipping class to go see a movie is a bad behavior, he has to be warned."
Yuuki, who had washed his hands clean, patted Itadori Yuji's shoulder, and had a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened just now.
"Ah! Yes."
Itadori Yuji glanced at Yuuki's expression, and found that he wasn't angry because of what had happened just now, and followed him.
After joining up with Ijichi Kiyotaka and handing over, the two left directly, Itadori Yuji asked in confusion on the way, "How are we going to catch that Yoshino Junpei?"
"Of course we're going to his house, how else are we going to catch him?"
Yuuki had a speechless expression, would he be bored enough to catch people all over the street?
There were no cursed energy traces left on the scene, which meant that that guy Mahito was just bored and doing experiments, to be honest, it was a question whether they could see Yoshino Junpei at night.
But he could first go to his school to understand the situation, after all, a child who skipped class wouldn't go home so early, and then took out his phone to ask Ijichi Kiyotaka for the information of his classmates, he was the one who was bullied the most in the class with timid eyes, and might be made a toy for Mahito to pass the time with.
He said, "Let's not go to Junpei's house first, let's go take a look near his school."
"Oh, okay."
...
"Drip, drip—"
In a long-abandoned factory, sewage dripped into a small pool on the ground, the quiet environment made the sound of dripping water particularly noisy, moss struggled to survive on the floor, and a huge cursed spirit, dozens of meters tall, collapsed on the ground, its fat body made it difficult to move.
"What's this?"
"It's a human experiment I did with a cursed sorcerer, but he doesn't seem to be working out, I feel like he'll explode if he grows another five meters."
Mahito, who had a smile on his face, said this, but his expression seemed very satisfied with the work in front of him.
After all, he had encountered a lost cursed sorcerer on the road, and then conveniently started an experiment, but that cursed sorcerer seemed to only be a Grade 4 sorcerer, 15 meters tall was his limit, but at least he had added a piece of data for himself.
"Hu…"
Yoshino Junpei looked at the black statue that was being shrunk in his hand, he put his hands on his chest, his open mouth and distorted face seemed to have experienced some painful things, if that was the person who was being enlarged, then this should be the one who was being shrunk…
But he didn't feel anything, after all, he was already numb to this trash world, a smile appeared on his face, and the blood vessels in his temples began to bulge, and he muttered, "Can I also have this power?!"
"Of course you can!"
Mahito hugged Yoshino Junpei in his arms, lifted the scar on his face that was covered by his hair, stroked it and comforted him softly, like a caring older brother, and said, "I'll give you this power, but you have to answer me one question first."
"What?!"
"What do you think humans are?"
"What are humans…"
Yoshino Junpei muttered in his mouth, and then recalled the people in school who were indifferent, why couldn't they come up to help when he was being bullied?
Some even joined in to enjoy it, the teachers also didn't understand anything, they would just criticize them a few times and that would be it, allowing them to continue being arrogant outside, while he would endure even more severe bullying…
He said, "They're all people who don't care about anything, and only care about themselves, and only use the weak to establish their position, I don't understand why I have to experience those things!"
Yoshino Junpei held his head with both hands, and his hateful eyes were covered with bloodshot, "They say they're doing it for my own good, but they still make me eat bugs, are they crazy? They start punching and kicking when they're said to be in pain, why! Why am I always the one who gets beaten!?"
"It looks like everyone likes to play word games, because humans can't survive without making all kinds of excuses."
Mahito stroked Yoshino Junpei's cheek, and said, "Do you know? Life has no value or weight, just like water to heaven and earth, life is just reincarnating between them. I'm the same as you, without meaning or value, so it doesn't matter what you do, you're free to live however you want, and you don't need a consistent way of life, eat when you're hungry, kill when you hate, I'll affirm everything you do."
This was the first time that Yoshino Junpei had received affirmation from someone other than his mother, and his face was mixed with excitement, and his eyes were also filled with sad tears.
"Will you come again tomorrow? To chat with me."
Mahito wiped away the tears in his eyes, and felt that these boring days would become very interesting.
...
Afternoon.
Yoshino Junpei came to the door of his house with a happy expression, after all, he had met a confidant friend today, although he wasn't a human, but he was home now, even if the original self was full of resentment, he should show his best side to his mother.
He pushed open the door, and shouted, "I'm home, Mom!"
"You're back, there are two guests today!"
His mother's voice came from the bedroom, but the sound of banging came from the kitchen.
"Guests?!"
Yoshino Junpei curiously glanced at the kitchen, a boy he didn't recognize at all was cooking inside!
Wait… The buttons on his clothes were spiral-shaped students…
He was indeed a student at this age, and the clothes he was wearing also looked like a school uniform, so according to what Mr. Mahito had said, he was a jujutsu sorcerer?!
"Osu!"
The sudden sound startled Yoshino Junpei, he shouted and quickly retreated, and asked, "What are you doing?"
"I'm sorry, did I scare you?"
Itadori Yuji scratched his head and said apologetically, "It's nice to meet you, my name is Itadori Yuji, hello."
"Oh… hello."
Yoshino Junpei saw that the person who had come was so polite, and also introduced himself, and said, "My name is Yoshino Junpei, what are you…"
"We saw your mother fall on the road," Yuuki, who was cooking in the kitchen, said, "We helped her home, and are cooking now, it'll be ready to eat in a bit, my name is Yuuki."
Hearing that his mother had fallen, Yoshino Junpei pushed Itadori Yuji away subconsciously and ran towards the bedroom.
Itadori didn't care too much, and instead walked into the kitchen with an apologetic expression, and said softly, "Isn't it a little immoral to deliberately throw a pebble to make Auntie fall?"
"How else would we get in? By breaking in?"
Yuuki rolled his eyes at Itadori, he could have taken care of this mission alone with a genjutsu, but he had to teach Itadori how to carry out this kind of mission in the future, it was really enough.
Although it was a little troublesome, he was teaching his juniors after all, he just shouldn't do anything that he couldn't understand.
"Y… yeah, that's right."
Itadori Yuji scratched his head, he had opened his eyes today, he had walked around Satozakura High School smoothly in casual clothes, and had successfully entered Yoshino Junpei's class, and had asked about things related to him.
It was a very common case of school bullying, although it was very common, it made Itadori feel angry, he hated those people who only knew how to bully the weak, and his clenched fists couldn't be swung out.
Because Yuuki-senpai was inside chatting and laughing with them, seemingly to get more useful information, but after they finished talking, Yuuki-senpai beat them up himself…
It was very brutal, and after beating them up, he would use 『Reverse Cursed Technique』 to heal them, this wasn't physical torture, it was directly transferred to the mental…
