gumi looked at his sister, who was lying on the hospital bed, in disbelief.
He could not understand why his sister had beco like this.
Scene after scene from the past flashed through gumi's mind.
His sister, who often lectured him but cared for him ticulously.
His sister, who, despite her young age, took the initiative to do housework and look after their good-for-nothing father.
In gumi's eyes, Tsumiki was the kind of good person who deserved happiness.
Tsumiki not only took care of her family at ho, but also looked after her classmates at school.
When out, she would help elderly people with mobility issues, and she would appropriately feed stray animals she encountered...
In the heart of any child who received a normal education, such a kind and beautiful person should receive happiness.
It was also due to his sister's influence that gumi would actively help others.
For example, if he encountered delinquents bullying classmates at school, he would find an excuse to intervene.
It might seem like gumi, also a delinquent, was just fighting with other delinquents, but in reality, he was helping those who were being bullied by them.
There were many similar examples.
But at this mont, gumi's worldview collapsed.
His kind sister did not receive good karma. Instead, she was struck by an unknown curse and could not wake up.
If the curse could not be broken, then his sister...
gumi's eyes lost focus, and he seed to turn to stone, finding even breathing difficult.
Click.
The sound of the hospital room door opening echoed, and a tall figure appeared behind gumi.
Normally, gumi would surely change his expression the mont Toji appeared, but today, gumi truly was not in the mood.
"How is the situation?"
As soon as Toji entered the room, his wife, who was beside him, cried and hugged him.
Sothing happening to her biological daughter was a huge blow to a mother, and at this mont, she desperately needed a shoulder to lean on.
"Satoru-sensei said Tsumiki was cursed, and it's best to send Tsumiki to Tokyo Jujutsu High."
gumi's voice trembled slightly.
"Then let's go."
Toji did not hesitate after hearing this and imdiately stepped forward to pick up Tsumiki.
"Stop, the patient's condition is unknown, any rough actions could..."
Before the nurse could finish speaking, a sudden inexplicable panic welled up in her heart.
A terrifying pressure enveloped her entire body.
"Don't get in the way, she's my daughter."
Toji coldly glanced at the nurse, then carried Tsumiki to Tokyo Jujutsu High.
A few hours later.
"How is Tsumiki's condition?"
When gumi saw Eichi appear, he eagerly stepped forward and asked.
Toji, who was spacing out nearby, looked at Eichi after hearing gumi's voice.
"Don't worry, Tsumiki's condition is currently safe."
Eichi reached out and touched gumi's spiky hair.
'A bit prickly, Yuta's hair feels better.'
"Is that so?"
gumi breathed a sigh of relief at the words.
"You said 'currently'?"
Toji keenly noticed the problem in Eichi's words.
After a long-awaited restart of his brain, Toji's clever intelligence once again took the lead.
Toji possessed terrifying combat awareness, and he himself was very intelligent, having formulated a ticulous plan in a very short ti and ultimately succeeding in defeating the combination of Satoru and Suguru.
It was just that past experiences made Toji dislike using his brain. His intelligence was mostly in a shut-down and empty state.
Now, because his daughter Tsumiki was cursed, Toji's intelligence, which had been off for many years, finally turned on again.
After all, she was the daughter he had taken care of for a long ti, even if Toji had closed off his heart after his first wife's death.
After such a long ti of companionship, sothing would inevitably remain in his heart.
"That's right, it's 'currently.'"
Eichi nodded.
In his opinion, Toji's emotions were more stable and less susceptible to external interference. Once he set a goal, he could ignore all distractions and move straight forward.
"Soone has sealed a Cursed Object inside Tsumiki's body, but this Cursed Object has not been activated, so she is currently safe."
"What will happen if the Cursed Object is activated?"
"Tsumiki's body will be taken over by the soul within the Cursed Object, turning her into another person."
Upon hearing this, Toji's eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of killing intent erged in his gaze.
"How do we take out that Cursed Object? Can the Inverted Spear of Heaven do it?"
Eichi shook his head, giving a negative answer.
"It's not difficult to remove the Cursed Object, but I do have a suggestion."
Hearing Eichi say that the Cursed Object could be removed, gumi's constantly worried heart finally relaxed.
"What?"
The killing intent in Toji's eyes also diminished considerably.
"Actively activate the Cursed Object inside Tsumiki, then engage in a prolonged battle with the ancient Jujutsu Sorcerer revived in Tsumiki's body."
Eichi made a suggestion that gumi completely did not understand. He could not grasp why, if the consciousness within the Cursed Object would take over Tsumiki's body and turn her into another person, they would still actively activate it.
But before gumi could ask, he was interrupted by Toji.
"Reason."
Unlike gumi, who was flustered with worry, Toji understood these kids who would co to him for physical training whenever they had nothing to do.
He knew that Eichi and the others would not offer useless suggestions.
"Curses happen every day, but even you guys can't protect Tsumiki forever, can you?
If that's the case, how about letting Tsumiki possess the power to protect herself?"
Eichi asked with a smile.
"How do we do it?"
Toji nodded. He also thought it was a good idea.
"Actively activate the Cursed Object inside Tsumiki, then continuously fight it.
dea and I just studied it. The Cursed Object inside Tsumiki contains a very powerful soul, and its strength can already reach Special Grade level."
Eichi stepped forward, his right hand brushing Tsumiki's forehead. Under the stimulation of Cursed Energy, an imprint radiating a cursed aura appeared on her forehead.
"A person's body has mory, and the physical body will also change under the influence of the soul.
As long as we can force that Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer to keep fighting, let Tsumiki's body rember her combat experience and Cursed Technique, and then eliminate that enemy."
After speaking, Eichi looked up at gumi and Toji.
'Special Grade...'
gumi's heart sank.
In gumi's heart, Eichi and the others were all good to him, and he did not want to cause them trouble.
But at the sa ti, he knew the power of a Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer. It was an existence he could not defeat.
"I understand. When do we start?"
Unlike the conflicted gumi, Toji understood that Eichi wanted him to take action and agreed without hesitation.
"Eh?"
gumi looked at Toji with a complicated expression, looking at this scummy father who had caused him and Tsumiki countless troubles.
The one he had vowed countless tis in his heart to beat up once he was strong enough.
In gumi's heart, Toji's back for the first ti appeared tall and imposing.
