"What everyone sees now is Kyoto. From the time Emperor Kanmu made this place the imperial capital until the Meiji Restoration, for a thousand years, it was the capital of the island nation, and thus it is also known as the 'Thousand-Year Ancient Capital'…"
At this moment, Yamata no Orochi, who had expanded his body to about a hundred meters at Suguru Geto's request, was leisurely swimming beside the Jujutsu Headquarters.
On the two innermost heads of Yamata no Orochi, Suguru Geto held a small plaster flag in his left hand, a megaphone in his right, and wore a small red hat on his head, unhurriedly explaining the history of Kyoto to his family.
"The first stop of this trip is the famous Jujutsu Headquarters. As everyone can see…"
As Suguru Geto's voice faded, everyone's gaze turned towards the ancient buildings below.
"Hey! Suguru Geto! Come down and talk!"
After Yamata no Orochi circled the Jujutsu Headquarters twice, the Jujutsu Headquarters finally sent someone out to negotiate.
"What did you say? I can't hear you!"
Suguru Geto cupped a hand to his ear, pretending to listen.
"I said! Come down and talk!"
"Louder! I can't hear you!"
It was confirmed; this guy was doing it on purpose.
But he didn't dare to make a move.
Even with more than a dozen Jujutsu Sorcerers standing behind him, he didn't dare to act.
The power gap was too great, and some of the people behind him already had weak legs. How could they fight?
Takahashi Akira, who was sent to negotiate, trembled as he looked behind him, then at Yamata no Orochi.
Then he closed his eyes, refusing to look anymore; if he kept looking, he would develop megalophobia.
"Ryosuke, use your Shikigami to send me up."
"Huh? Okay."
The man named Ryosuke summoned a lantern Shikigami that resembled a ghost Face.
The lantern Shikigami lifted Takahashi Akira and slowly flew him to the top of Yamata no Orochi's head.
'Hiss, damn it, my butt is going to be roasted. I should have asked someone else to send me up.'
Takahashi Akira cursed silently.
He looked back at the lantern Shikigami that had quickly floated away after sending him up, and Takahashi Akira also felt his legs go weak.
No need to worry about megalophobia anymore; it had turned into acrophobia.
"You're very young. How old are you this year?"
Suguru Geto's gentle voice reached Takahashi Akira's ears.
"2, 29."
"Very impressive. How many years have you been working at the Jujutsu Headquarters?"
In Suguru Geto's opinion, someone able to step forward and negotiate with him at a time like this had to be either a person of great courage or someone with sufficient status to speak to him with official authority.
If they had neither, why send them out?
"Not impressive, not impressive. I've been working for 5 years and am still just a small team leader."
It seemed Suguru Geto's gentle voice had alleviated the tension in Takahashi Akira's heart.
Takahashi Akira's voice finally stopped trembling.
"Eh? You're just a small team leader? Then what are you doing up here?"
Suguru Geto's eyes widened in surprise.
"It's just that the department heads all happened to be out of the Jujutsu Headquarters, so only I could entertain Lord Geto, ha ha ha."
Takahashi Akira scratched his head sheepishly.
What supported him to go outside and Face Yamata no Orochi and Suguru Geto was neither his position nor his courage.
It was the helplessness of a worker trying to keep his job.
"Alright, go back and tell them I'm here with people for a tour. We'll leave when we've had enough fun."
Suguru Geto patted Takahashi Akira's shoulder.
Then he released a flying Cursed Spirit to grab Takahashi Akira and send him down.
"How long does Lord Geto plan to stay? I'll inform the others to prepare for your reception."
"No need. We'll leave when we've had enough fun."
Meanwhile, behind the Jujutsu Headquarters.
"Such a big snake, Dad. Is that big snake also a Cursed Spirit raised by the Jujutsu Headquarters?"
A five or six-year-old child excitedly tugged at his father's sleeve.
"Probably."
The man was a Jujutsu Sorcerer from a common background. This year, after his son's Cursed Technique Awakening, he wanted to bring him to the Jujutsu Headquarters to find acquaintances to help assess him.
And to find a teacher for his son, incidentally.
He didn't expect to see such an exciting scene as soon as they arrived at the Jujutsu Headquarters.
He remembered the incident when Curse Users and Cursed Spirits attacked Tokyo Jujutsu High.
At that time, he was even summoned by the Jujutsu Headquarters to be responsible for patrol missions to prevent Curse Users from attacking the High School again.
Could Kyoto also be under attack?
"Good boy, son, Dad will take you to eat something delicious."
The man picked up his son, intending to find a safe place to hide.
As soon as he heard there was something delicious, the child immediately stopped staring at Yamata no Orochi.
"Dad, what's that mountain called?"
"Mount Futago."
"But why does Mount Futago only have one peak?"
"Because its other peak was taken away by the stars."
"Stars?"
"That's right, golden stars."
"Dad, Dad, is it that kind of gold?"
The child immediately shook his father's shoulder vigorously.
The man turned his head and saw a golden pillar of light shooting into the sky.
The other peak of Mount Futago was also gone.
'Could someone really dare to attack the Jujutsu Headquarters? No, Kyoto is too unsafe. I should go to Tokyo to find a teacher for my son.'
The man ran even faster, holding his son.
In the backyard at this moment, Eichi picked up the teapot and drank all the tea inside in one gulp.
"As expected of you, Old geezer, this tea is delicious."
Under the angry gaze of an Old geezer, Eichi casually tossed the teapot aside.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
After several minutes of the two staring at each other, the Old geezer finally spoke.
"It's just that I was young and playful before, and I left the Jujutsu Headquarters' renovation halfway through.
This time, I'm back to help the Jujutsu Headquarters renovate it again."
After speaking, Eichi pointed to where the golden light had just shone.
"Just like that Mount Futago, what kind of talk is it to leave only one peak there? This time, I'll flatten the other peak for the Jujutsu Headquarters for free, so it's symmetrical.
And you Old geezers are all getting old, it's inconvenient to climb mountains. Turning it into a basin is also looking out for your legs and feet, wouldn't you say?"
Eichi smiled at the Old geezer in front of him.
"We won't trouble you, a Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer, with the renovation. We'll find a professional team to handle it. You can go back."
"Please rest assured, I am also a professional."
Eichi patted his chest.
"Besides, how can an ordinary team compare to me, a Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer? When the Jujutsu Headquarters announces that your building was personally repaired by a Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer, it will definitely give you a lot of Face.
I'll go get busy now, Old geezer, you continue drinking your tea."
After speaking, Eichi walked into the next courtyard.
The high-ranking officials of the Jujutsu Headquarters all had a separate small courtyard here for rest.
"He finally left."
The Old geezer wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"What's that sound?"
Suddenly, clanging sounds came from inside the house.
The Old geezer looked inside and saw Rabbits, armed with hammers, nails, mallets, and various other tools, already busy at work in the house.
"Don't touch that! That's Emperor Komei's personal calligraphy."
Rip.
The next second, two Rabbits, moving in different directions, caused the calligraphy to be torn apart.
The two Rabbits looked back at each other, then at the calligraphy torn in half, and directly threw it into the dustpan.
"Ah."
The Old geezer trembled as he looked at the calligraphy in the dustpan; he had treasured that piece for a long time.
"Put that down! That vase is from the Tang Dynasty."
Crash, the vase fell to the ground and shattered.
"Ah, ah, ah, you beasts! I'll fight you all!"
