"I wonder if Yaga-san has rembered anything."
Inside Jujutsu Headquarters, a man in a suit smiled as he poured Masamichi a cup of tea.
"It is still the sa answer. Panda is a suddenly mutated Cursed Corpse. There is no manufacturing thod as you claim."
Masamichi did not pick up the teacup. He simply watched the man silently.
During these past few days, Masamichi had maintained a highly vigilant ntal state.
He also minimized his intake of food and drink to avoid falling victim to strange thods that might cause Panda's secret to leak.
This also caused his figure to beco slightly thinner.
"Is that so? Then I will not disturb Yaga-san Please enjoy your al."
After speaking, the man left the breakfast, bowed slightly, then exited the room.
"How did it go?"
A woman dressed in a suit walked up to him.
"He still refuses to say anything."
The woman spoke helplessly.
The man's na was Yamada Aoi, and the woman's na was Kamo Haruna.
Both were interrogators for Jujutsu Headquarters.
Yamada Aoi could perceive the emotions of those around him through his Technique, allowing him to judge whether soone was lying.
Kamo Haruna, on the other hand, could connect with others using her blood, allowing her to perceive their thoughts.
Both interrogation thods were relatively gentle.
"What about your side? Did you manage to sense his thoughts?"
Yamada Aoi asked.
"No. He ate too little. My blood could not accumulate enough to activate the Technique. How can such a large person only eat half a bowl of ran per al?"
Kamo Haruna sounded helpless.
Blood did not taste good, especially blood containing a Technique mixed with Cursed Energy.
So to avoid Masamichi noticing, they only added small amounts to tea, als, and snacks.
Then they relied on the Technique to maintain the blood's activity.
However, Masamichi only drank plain water and ate less than a dieting girl during his three als.
What could she do?
"Could it really be as he said, that the Cursed Corpse mutated suddenly?"
Kamo Haruna spoke helplessly.
"Probably not. If it were truly a sudden mutation that could not be replicated, Masamichi would have allowed Jujutsu Headquarters to take the Cursed Corpse for inspection instead of leaving it with Shoko."
No one dared to easily offend Shoko.
Not to ntion whether soone in your family might one day require her Reverse Cursed Technique.
Over the years, Shoko had saved a large number of Jujutsu Sorcerers.
Once Shoko ford an opinion, even The Big Three Families would find it troubleso.
Moreover, many things cannot be successfully replicated just by having a sample.
Therefore, Jujutsu Headquarters ultimately focused on Masamichi.
"Damn it. I really wish those perverts would co. If this continues, our Family will punish us again."
Kamo Haruna spoke through gritted teeth.
The Big Three Families did not treat their subordinates as people.
"You know that is impossible. Sigh."
It was not that they did not want to use harsher interrogation thods.
When it ca to such thods, Jujutsu Headquarters had even more options than Curse Users.
But they could not, or rather, they did not dare.
Not to ntion Masamichi's identity as a principal.
His students alone were enough to destroy Jujutsu Headquarters.
Among the five Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerers, four were Masamichi's students. The fifth was Choso.
There were also several Special Grade imaginary heroic spirits who obeyed his students.
Even excluding the Special Grades, many Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerers had received his guidance.
For example, Nanami, i i, and Kusakabe.
Especially Kusakabe. It was said he fought to a draw with the legendary Sasaki in a public duel.
Therefore, what had once been speculation was now widely accepted. The title of strongest Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer firmly rested on Kusakabe's head.
In short, Masamichi truly had students everywhere.
Even if his Special Grade students were excluded.
The remaining ones, if gathered together, could rival one of The Big Three Families.
If those Special Grades were added, Jujutsu Headquarters would not even dare imagine the result.
Especially Eichi.
Satoru might go too far sotis, but he ultimately did not act violently.
Eichi, however, truly took action.
The flowers in the Zen'in Family backyard blood exceptionally well this year.
Several Zen'in mbers who held high positions in Jujutsu Headquarters had contributed to this.
Because of that, everyone was cautious.
This caution eventually beca the final order given to Yamada Aoi and Kamo Haruna.
"Use every possible thod to pry open Masamichi's mouth, but do not harm him."
When they heard the first half of the sentence, Yamada Aoi and Kamo Haruna were full of confidence.
But the second half shocked them out of that confidence.
If this scene were animated, two black and white figures would be standing inside a colorful room.
At that mont, they truly wanted to ask whether the phrases "use every ans possible" and "do not harm him" should appear in the sa sentence.
Just as they were still troubled, a violent tremor ca from the ground beneath their feet.
"An earthquake?"
"The TV did not report one!"
The two imdiately ran out into the open area outside the building in panic.
"Hey, what is that?!"
Under the astonished gazes of several people, a colossal creature nearly one hundred ters tall appeared in the mountains outside Jujutsu Headquarters.
The monster had eight ferocious heads and eight long tails.
It roared as it advanced toward Jujutsu Headquarters.
"Yamada-kun, is that the monster you ntioned? Where is Ultraman?"
Kamo Haruna stared blankly at the monster causing the earthquake outside.
At that mont, the only thing she could think of was the Ultraman stories Yamada Aoi often told her.
She felt that only in Ultraman would such a massive and terrifying monster exist.
Her intuition told her it was a Cursed Spirit.
But her past experience told her Cursed Spirits could not be that large.
The largest Cursed Spirit she had ever seen was only twenty ters tall.
That was already a quasi Special Grade Cursed Spirit.
But in front of Yamata no Orochi, it probably would not even be enough for one of its heads to eat.
"I do not know."
Yamada Aoi was also confused.
He rarely went on missions, and even when he did, he usually looked after the young masters and young ladies of Jujutsu Sorcerer families.
However, the appearance of this monster made him believe once again that light truly existed.
Otherwise, how could that monster outside be explained?
"Honestly, what troubleso students."
Masamichi's voice ca from behind the two.
His tone contained both annoyance and relief.
