Life at Tokyo Jujutsu High beca peaceful after the Kyoto Sister School Exchange Event concluded.
The previously active Cursed Spirits also grew dormant with the arrival of winter.
It was as if Cursed Spirits also needed to hibernate.
Soon, the second year of Tokyo Jujutsu High began.
At night, in a house in Miyagi Prefecture.
A woman with stitches on her head was deep in thought, looking at a piece of scrap paper filled with writing.
Itadori Kaori, or rather... Kenjaku.
Tengen's 500-year assimilation was approaching, and Kenjaku would not miss this opportunity no matter what.
After all, if she missed it, she would have to wait another 500 years.
Five hundred years, how long that was.
And unlike last ti, this ti Kenjaku had the most suitable pawn.
Fushiguro Toji.
This rare Heavenly Restriction with absolutely zero Cursed Energy.
Everyone has so Cursed Energy, more or less.
Even with Heavenly Restriction, it was extrely rare to see an extre case like Toji with completely zero Cursed Energy.
Toji, with his complete lack of Cursed Energy, could not be judged by the Cursed Energy system, and naturally, would not be affected by the system's karma restraints.
Therefore, Toji was the most likely person to break the karma restraint between Tengen and the Star Plasma Vessel.
However... Kenjaku's gaze turned to the Tokyo Jujutsu High roster.
"The current Toji is no match for Tokyo Jujutsu High."
Kenjaku's gaze began to scan through the roster, one by one.
"Gojo Satoru, the Six Eyes cannot be excluded from this matter. Let him be."
"Geto Suguru, though troubleso, should be within Toji's handling capabilities."
"Saber..."
Kenjaku fell into deep thought.
She had never fought Artoria, but from her performance in the ani and the definition of a Special Grade Heroic Spirit, she could understand a lot.
"A battle-hardened warrior, huh? With her around, Toji's success rate would be greatly reduced."
Kenjaku circled Artoria's na.
"dea went to foreign countries a while ago and hasn't returned yet, so she doesn't need to be considered."
"Emiya, his Clairvoyance observation ability is also very troubleso."
Seeing Emiya, Kenjaku suddenly thought of a question.
"What is the difference between a Noble Phantasm and a Domain Expansion?"
"I'll have to try it soti."
Subsequently, Emiya's na was also circled by Kenjaku.
"Ieiri Shoko is treasured by Tokyo Jujutsu High and should not easily be put in danger. Even if she cos, Toji can handle her."
Then Kenjaku's gaze fell on the last na.
"Azuma Eichi. He absolutely must be drawn away."
Whether in ani or reality, the act of recalling a Heroic Spirit with a Command Spell has occurred.
Eichi also made no secret of his ability to summon Heroic Spirits back to his side at any ti.
So, as long as Eichi was present, it was equivalent to the other Heroic Spirits also being present.
In the worst-case scenario, a Command Spell might even summon dea back from overseas.
"It won't be easy to divert Azuma Eichi for more than three days. What should I do..."
Kenjaku began to search through the cards in her hand in her mind.
The Kamo Family should not appear in this incident. Otherwise, it would be equivalent to announcing the Kamo Family's participation in the 'rebellion' against Tengen.
Therefore, at most, they could provide a little help within a reasonable scope.
For example, by issuing a mission in the na of the Jujutsu Headquarters.
The Ti Vessel Association lacked sufficient combat power and could, at most, act as the apparent mastermind.
Curse Users... Since the birth of the Six Eyes, many Curse Users had been forced into seclusion. There weren't many ignorant Curse Users left that could be used. At most, they could play a supporting role.
"Why are all the strong ones gathered at Tokyo Jujutsu High?"
Kenjaku scratched her head helplessly.
She looked through the window at the opposite side.
A pink-haired child was sleeping soundly.
"Sukuna's vessel is also complete, and the wish I pursue is just one step away from success."
A flicker of determination appeared in Kenjaku's eyes.
"It's ti to use so of my collection."
For a thousand years, Kenjaku had collected a large number of ancient powerful individuals' corpses and used them as Cursed Objects.
Not only ancient individuals, but she also collected a large number of Cursed Spirits' Cursed Objects.
This is why there were 1000 swimrs and 10 million Cursed Spirits in the Culling Ga.
Information about powerful individuals and Cursed Spirits was eliminated one by one by Kenjaku.
Finally, several Cursed Objects ford from Special Grade Cursed Spirits were selected.
After deciding on her target, Kenjaku's figure disappeared into the night.
On the other side, in a villa.
Amanai Riko, who had fallen asleep under Kuroi Misato's care, welcod a special guest.
A transparent barrier that isolated all observation and perception quietly ford in Amanai Riko's room.
A figure in a purple robe appeared by the bedside.
It was dea, whom Kenjaku thought was still overseas.
Under Eichi's arrangent, dea had quietly returned to Japan last night.
"Is this the Star Plasma Vessel, the body closest to Tengen and with the best compatibility?"
dea looked at the sleeping girl on the bed with interest.
"If I were to study this child's body, could I obtain so information about Tengen?"
Looking at the girl, who seed to be having a nightmare with a hint of sorrow between her brows, dea still gave up on doing anything.
Even if she acted strong in front of Kuroi Misato, she would still be scared and helpless when alone, wouldn't she?
After all, her life had just begun. To sacrifice herself at this best age... "She's really a lovely child."
dea took out a red gem from her robe, then gently placed it on the girl's chest.
A magical scene occurred. The red gem sank into Amanai Riko's body like a stone sinking into water.
She gently helped Riko pull up the covers, then lightly stroked her forehead with her right hand.
The next mont, dea disappeared from the room.
The sorrow between Riko's brows had dissipated.
With a slight upward curve of her lips, Riko's face revealed a faint smile.
Sweet dreams tonight.
On the other side, in a secret room filled with barriers, Kenjaku was searching for the Cursed Object she desired.
"Got it."
Kenjaku stopped in front of a Cursed Object that resembled both a Buddha and a ghost.
"A hero of justice, huh? Let make good use of your justice."
A wicked smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Next is Azuma Eichi."
According to data from Jujutsu Headquarters, Azuma Eichi had already mastered Domain Expansion, and coupled with his ability to summon Heroic Spirits at any ti with a Command Spell, it would be very difficult to kill him.
"But the goal this ti isn't to kill him, only to trap him."
Thinking this, Kenjaku picked up a Cursed Object that looked like a turtle.
"This wouldn't be difficult for Satoru with the Six Eyes to handle, but for you, Azuma Eichi, it would take a lot of ti."
"However, to prevent Saber from not going on a mission with Azuma Eichi, I should bring a few more Cursed Objects."
Soon, two more Cursed Objects appeared in Kenjaku's hand: a bone spur and a tangled ball of scrap wire that had stuck together after being left for too long.
"This way, even for that Saber, it wouldn't be easy to win in a short amount of ti."
(To be continued.)
