gumin's body was almost completely immobilized, but she still managed to lift her head, flashing a smug smile at Yuji Itadori.
Explosion Magic was her specialty, and it felt exhilarating just to be able to use it in front of others.
However, after forcing out that final smile to act tough, gumin's head buried itself back into the dirt:
"But... I didn't expect a Giant Toad to be hiding in the ground nearby... I'm going to be eaten!"
"Hey, hey, hey, you two, don't get eaten!"
Sato Kazuma was on the verge of a breakdown, watching from the side as even more Giant Toads charged toward them.
"Still... it was enough to use Explosion Magic one last ti... O fellow Archwizard! You try using Explosion Magic too!"
In the entire world, the number of people who could use Explosion Magic could be counted on one hand.
gumin was convinced that Itadori would be equally unable to pull it off.
"Hey, hey, hey, you're already paralyzed, stop talking like that..."
"I feel like your Explosion Magic is sowhat similar to my Cursed Technique."
At that mont, Yuji Itadori spoke slowly, raising his hand at the sa ti.
Searing flas condensed in his palm.
Ryon Sukuna's Cursed Technique, capable of cleaving everything apart, was well-known to the world.
But in reality, he possessed another type of technique.
The fire-controlling 'Fuga' and 'Open'.
Itadori had naturally inherited this technique as well, though he usually had no need to use it.
"Since you ntioned it, I'll give it a little try."
As Itadori spoke, the flas erupted toward the sky—
In the next second, like a terrifying waterfall of fire, they cascaded down from above!
Instantly, the world went silent.
That wasn't a taphor.
Every sound within a five-hundred-ter radius was swallowed by the instantaneous high temperature—the chirping of birds, the whistling of the wind, the clatter of rolling pebbles; every vibration frequency was suppressed beneath the absolute thermal energy released by 'Fuga' and 'Open'.
The searing pillar of fire landed with absolute precision right where the group of Giant Toads was located. The ground within a ten-ter diater was directly transford into scorched earth, and even the sand and stones on the ground turned into glass under the high temperature.
"Wh-What is this?"
Sato Kazuma looked at the scene before him with a face full of astonishnt.
According to what gumin had said earlier, the Explosion Magic she used was one of the highest-tier Magics in this world, mastered by only a few.
The destruction gumin had just caused was enough to prove she was telling the truth; the power of that Magic was incredibly formidable.
And yet Itadori had actually replicated it?!
gumin was sprawled on the ground, but the shock gave her one last burst of strength, allowing her to painfully lift her head to look at Itadori.
This person could also use Explosion Magic?!
But it felt like sothing was slightly different.
As the flas vanished, those few Giant Toads had long since been reduced to ashes.
"It should be considered roughly the sa thing."
Itadori clapped his hands together, turned his head toward gumin, and spoke.
"You... You can still move?"
gumin looked at Itadori in disbelief.
Releasing a single Explosion Magic nearly drained one's magical power completely, leaving the body unable to move. Even as a mber of the Crimson Magic Clan who specialized in Magic, gumin could only use it once a day.
But the Yuji Itadori before her seed completely unaffected after releasing it?
"Yeah, it shouldn't be a problem no matter how many tis I release it."
Itadori replied.
His mastery of this technique could even be said to surpass that of the forr Ryon Sukuna.
gumin fell into silence upon hearing his words, and only after several seconds did she suddenly speak:
"Your na is Yuji Itadori, right?"
"Yeah."
"I never expected... to find a kindred spirit... Hahahahahaha!"
gumin suddenly burst into a fit of wild laughter.
"Hey, hey, hey, that pose and that laughter are a bit too creepy."
Sato Kazuma was almost too exhausted to complain.
However, gumin completely ignored him and continued:
"In the past, my Sensei said that Explosion Magic was just a joke Magic—that although it was powerful, the consumption was so massive that no one would bother to learn it!"
"Wait, so that's the reason why no one learns it?!"
"But now, I've finally t a like-minded person! Senior Itadori, do you also long to peer into the darkness within the abyss! Do you long to uncover the truths of the world!"
"Uh, yeah."
Itadori nodded thoughtfully.
"Senior Itadori, don't play along with this girl so much!"
"Itadori Sensei! Please instruct ! I want to take my Explosion Magic to the next level!!"
"Hey, hey, hey, aren't you supposed to be exhausted?"
"As for instruction... I don't really have any experience."
Itadori rubbed his head.
He had absolutely no experience instructing others; after all, he had never been a teacher.
Co to think of it, Satoru Gojo seed to have significant issues as a teacher too.
But Gojo truly hoped his juniors would grow safely and even surpass him.
In that case, he should also do his best for his juniors.
"But if you need help with anything, you can co find , though I might not be here every ti."
Itadori said to gumin with a smile, and the latter nodded vigorously.
"Senior Itadori, can you release Explosion Magic a few more tis!"
gumin's eyes were full of light, and her previous fatigue seed to vanish as she stood up—though in the next second, she collapsed again from exhaustion.
"Hey, hey, hey, gumin, you brat!"
Just as Sato Kazuma stepped forward to support gumin, a prompt appeared in Itadori's vision.
[Ti Expired]
[Returning to Original World]
"Kazuma, I have to head back now."
Itadori said to Sato Kazuma. He had spent a solid twenty-four hours in this world.
"Oh, is it ti already! Thanks for the hard work! Thank you very much, Senior Itadori!"
The mont he finished speaking, a white light enveloped Itadori, and he vanished in the next instant.
"Eh? EH!"
gumin was stunned.
Wasn't Yuji Itadori just standing right in front of her?
How did he disappear all of a sudden?
Is this another kind of Magic?
It looks really impressive.
Though it certainly couldn't compare to Explosion Magic, it made gumin even more curious about Itadori.
"Let's head back too."
Sato Kazuma stretched and slung gumin over his shoulder like a sack of grain.
"But I feel like I've forgotten sothing—"
On the other side, further away in a spot untouched by Itadori's Magic, the two legs belonging to Aqua were slowly sinking into the mouth of a Giant Toad.
