Jujutsu High students don't just study; they also bear the responsibility of exorcising curses and eliminating Cursed Spirits, a task delegated and supervised by the higher-ups of the Jujutsu world.
There's no other way; Jujutsu Sorcerers are too scarce, and they simply can't handle all the work, especially during the start of the school year.
Rising resentnt accelerates the birth rate of Cursed Spirits.
And so, the group of four soon welcod their first mission as first-year students.
...
...
Above the playground of Eishu Juvenile Detention Center, a Cursed Womb appeared.
A Cursed Womb is a Cursed Spirit still in its gestation phase.
According to the assessnt observed by the higher-ups of the Jujutsu world, this is a Special Grade Imaginary Cursed Spirit.
Ijichi, as the school's Assistant Supervisor, primarily serves as a communication bridge between the higher-ups and the students. This mission was also directly assigned and coordinated by him.
"Irrelevant personnel within a 500-ter radius have been evacuated. In the second dormitory for inmates, five inmates are still coexisting with the Cursed Womb. If the Cursed Womb is a type that grows through tamorphosis, it is highly likely to evolve into a Special Grade Cursed Spirit."
Mr. Ijichi explained.
Normally, Cursed Spirits of a certain grade are usually assigned to Jujutsu Sorcerers of the sa grade for handling.
For a mission involving a Special Grade Cursed Spirit, even if it's still an unhatched Cursed Womb, at least a Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer would be responsible.
However, Gojo Satoru happened to be away on a business trip.
"I apologize, the Jujutsu world has always faced a shortage of personnel, so mission targets often exceed the sorcerer's grade. However, your mission is not to exorcise the Cursed Womb, but to search for and rescue potential survivors."
Mr. Ijichi explained.
"That sounds pretty standard,"
Kael yawned. Sending four first-year students to rescue a few inmates—when did the Jujutsu world's higher-ups start caring so much about ordinary people's lives?
Itadori Yuji looked at the family mbers of the missing persons waiting anxiously nearby, and his eyes gradually fird.
"We'll save them, right, Big Brother?"
"Yes, yes, yes. If you say so, what else can I say?"
Kael felt a bit sluggish. He had recently been studying materials related to cursed tool manufacturing. There were no experts in this field at the school, so he could only rely on self-study.
He had been overthinking a bit, so coming out for so fresh air was just right.
"I knew Big Brother was a good person."
Itadori Yuji grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth.
Hearing this, Kael smiled at him, then backhanded him on the head.
"Your whole family are good people."
"Ouch!"
Itadori Yuji clutched his head and squatted defensively.
"Then I'll leave it to the four of you. I will now cast the curtain..."
Mr. Ijichi chanted a Cursed Speech, and the sky slowly darkened. The so-called curtain was, in essence, a barrier that obscured vision, as this place was too close to residential areas.
Fushiguro gumi summoned his Divine Dog Shikigami.
This dog-shaped Shikigami is very sensitive to Cursed Spirits, making it suitable as a scout.
"Good doggy, good doggy."
Kael stroked the dog's head, and the Divine Dog looked docile.
"I wonder if there are any beautiful female Shikigami."
Hearing Kael's whispered murmur, Fushiguro gumi's mouth couldn't help but twitch. They had known each other for a while; how could he not know exactly what Kael wanted?
He really wondered what was left in Kael's mind besides lewd thoughts.
"Class monitor, Shikigami are essentially curses. Too much intimate contact isn't good for your body."
Fushiguro gumi kindly reminded him. He had no doubt about Kael's impulsiveness.
"You're overthinking it. With my physical fitness, I can easily subdue a Special Grade Cursed Spirit."
Kael said without modesty.
I wonder if I can find Hanako in the bathroom, hehe.
"Is your'subdue' legitimate?"
Fushiguro gumi pouted, feeling a wave of helplessness.
He truly worried that Kael would one day do sothing to ruin their reputation, even though Jujutsu Sorcerers' reputations weren't great to begin with.
But one shouldn't, at least not...
"So impressive, then this mission is up to you, Class Monitor."
Kugisaki Nobara said with a fawning expression.
"You only call Class Monitor when you want to take the fall."
Kael said, walking to the front, raising his hand to loosen the buttons on his sleeve, and speaking in a calm tone.
"Later, keep your eyes peeled and watch what it ans to punch a Special Grade baby with one blow."
"Long live the Class Monitor!"
"The Boss is mighty!"
Itadori Yuji and Kugisaki Nobara, like sycophants, followed Kael on his left and right.
"Don't ss around, that's a Special Grade Cursed Spirit. Our mission is just to save people."
Although Fushiguro gumi had witnessed Kael's strength, he still didn't believe he could handle a Special Grade Cursed Spirit. What if sothing went wrong?
"Don't worry, Welfare Committee mber, I know what I'm doing."
Kael gave Fushiguro gumi a 'confident' look, pushed open the door, and entered the dormitory building.
"When did I beco the Welfare Committee mber?"
Fushiguro gumi paused, then quickly took two steps to catch up, muttering.
"I think this position suits your motherly personality well. As your Class Monitor, I hereby verbally appoint you."
"Huh? Explain yourself, who's motherly?!"
"Big Brother, Big Brother, what about ?"
"You're the Sports Committee mber!"
"Class Monitor, Class Monitor, don't forget !"
"Arts and Culture Committee mber."
"There are only four first-year students in total. Are you playing house and amusing yourselves?"
Fushiguro gumi, ignored, couldn't help but raise his voice a few octaves.
"Shhh—."
Kael stopped, placing a finger on his lips.
At this mont, Fushiguro gumi suddenly realized sothing was wrong with the environnt. The surrounding space showed obvious overlapping changes, like a labyrinth, not at all like a two-story dormitory building.
When he looked back again, the entrance and exit had disappeared.
"Is this an Innate Domain activated by Cursed Energy? Interesting."
Kael stroked his chin and mumbled.
"What's an Innate Domain?"
Itadori Yuji looked bewildered.
"Roughly, it can be understood as a manifestation of a ntal world, which is where the Cursed Spirit's soul resides."
Kael gave a simple translation.
"Oh~."
Itadori Yuji nodded in understanding, his comprehension skills were up to par, but then he expressed confusion.
"Big Brother, aren't you like , just entering the Jujutsu world? How do you know so much?"
"Is the school library just a campus decoration? Read all the books in it. Then there will basically be nothing in the Jujutsu world that can confuse you."
"Hiss—."
"Hiss—."
Itadori Yuji and Kugisaki Nobara looked at Kael with eyes like he was a pervert. They had greatly underestimated Kael's level of perversion.
"It's only been a few days, and you've finished them all?!"
Fushiguro gumi also looked utterly shocked.
"Not really."
Kael waved his hand. Just as the three of them breathed a sigh of relief, they heard him change his tone and continue.
"There are also so forbidden books that the principal hid a bit too tightly. It wasted a lot of ti to find them, and I haven't even had ti to read them yet."
Kael had honed his book-stealing skills for a long ti during his studies at Kamar-Taj.
"Forbidden books?!"
Now it was Fushiguro gumi's turn to gasp.
"Don't be nervous, besides you three, no one else knows. But if the principal or Teacher Gojo finds out soday, it'll be you three who leaked it. At that ti... hehe."
Kael swept his gaze over Itadori Yuji and the other two with a threatening look.
"Big Brother, you understand . If there's a leak, it must be One-Point Red and i i who did it!"
Itadori Yuji was the first to pat his chest, expressing loyalty.
"Bastard! What kind of person do you take for?! Only i i would do sothing like that!"
Kugisaki Nobara imdiately retorted.
"Huh?!"
Fushiguro gumi's eyes widened. I haven't even done anything, and you're already convinced I'll be a traitor?
Why worry about not having a pretext for a cri you want to commit!
Class Monitor, you have to believe , I'm innocent!
"Alright, alright, we're all on the sa side. I believe you all. The mission is urgent now."
Kael calmly waved his hand and strode inside. He had already slled blood. The taste of a Special Grade Cursed Spirit's Cursed Energy, it was truly sothing to look forward to.
"Woof!"
The Divine Dog barked softly.
Itadori Yuji also saw the half-body lying on the ground ahead. He quickly stepped forward and confird from the na on the person's clothes that it was one of the currently known missing persons.
"His face is intact. We have to bring his remains to his mother."
Itadori Yuji turned and said to Kael.
"Whatever you say."
Kael didn't care.
"He's just an incorrigible scoundrel. There are two other missing persons waiting for us to find. Just leave him here."
Fushiguro gumi offered a different opinion. He had seen the missing person's file information. This half-body guy in front of them was no good; he had hit and killed a student while driving without a license.
"Alright."
Kael nodded. He didn't care either way, since he didn't have to do the work himself anyway.
"What do you an, 'leave him here'?"
Itadori Yuji heard the obvious disdain in Fushiguro gumi's tone towards the deceased and imdiately beca annoyed.
Their values clashed a bit, and conflict naturally arose.
"Kael, are you just going to watch?"
Kugisaki Nobara was a bit speechless.
This guy kept saying "whatever you say" and "alright." She hadn't seen him so casual when ordering food.
"Call Class Monitor, honestly."
Kael said, reaching out and grabbing Kugisaki Nobara's collar.
"Hm?"
Kugisaki Nobara was stunned for a mont. Before she could react, her body was lifted into the air.
"Ahhh!"
"Catch her, you two."
Kael said, reaching out to the side and grabbing an arm that was reaching for the Divine Dog. He looked up and t the gaze of a quietly appearing Special Grade Cursed Spirit, a smile playing on his lips amidst its astonished expression.
A 'rip' sound echoed.
Blood splattered, and the Divine Dog barked furiously.
"A Cursed Spirit?!"
Fushiguro gumi only then noticed the appearance of this Special Grade Cursed Spirit, no longer caring about his argunt with Itadori Yuji.
"You two bastards! Didn't you hear the Class Monitor say to catch ?"
Kugisaki Nobara rubbed her butt, got up from the ground, and cursed at Itadori and Fushiguro.
She, the dignified class beauty of the first year, was less attention-grabbing than a half-body corpse to Itadori Yuji and the others. This was simply the heaviest blow to her self-confidence.
At this mont, Kugisaki Nobara finally realized Kael's good points. At least in their Class Monitor's eyes, she was still a woman.
"Does it hurt? If it hurts, scream it out, that'll make you feel better."
Kael held up the severed arm he had torn off and waved it at the Cursed Spirit in front of him.
...
The Special Grade Cursed Womb, Sukuna, looked at its missing hand. The eye on its forehead revealed confusion, but the severed limb regenerated completely in a flash.
Cursed Spirits are essentially a combination of Cursed Energy and curses. They don't have a physical body, and as long as their Cursed Energy remains and the curse isn't exorcised, any injury can heal quickly.
"It just hatched, so it can't speak? It really is a baby, which makes feel a little bad about bullying you."
Kael casually squeezed, and the severed arm in his hand dissipated into Cursed Energy, absorbed and converted into increased stats.
"Quite a fresh taste, isn't it?"
Kael gave his evaluation.
"Big Brother, look out!"
Itadori Yuji suddenly shouted a warning. In his vision, the humanoid Special Grade Cursed Spirit appeared behind Kael as if teleporting, and the Cursed Energy bursting from its hand materialized into a brilliant light.
This was the most direct and pure Cursed Energy attack.
However, with the massive Cursed Energy of a Special Grade Cursed Spirit, it appeared incredibly terrifying.
The overwhelming pressure made the three of them feel as if they were sinking in quicksand, unable to move their bodies, and even breathing beca difficult.
"Look out for what?"
Kael turned to look at Itadori and the others, his hand clutching the Special Grade Cursed Spirit's head, his five fingers deeply embedded in it, while its body remained in an attacking posture.
"...No, nothing."
Itadori Yuji chuckled awkwardly, subconsciously swallowing.
He hadn't seen Kael's movents at all; in the blink of an eye, it had turned out like this.
Was his Big Brother a little too terrifyingly strong?
Although he didn't emit the sa kind of oppressive aura as the Special Grade Cursed Spirit, the sight before them brought an even deeper shock to their minds.
"Be good and don't move."
Kael said, applying a little more force with his fingers, followed by a clear sound of bones cracking.
Even Cursed Spirits have an instinctive will to survive.
Feeling its life held in Kael's hand, even a Special Grade Cursed Spirit would experience fear.
"What are you still standing there for? Get going."
Kael finished lecturing the Cursed Spirit in his hand, then turned to Itadori Yuji and the others.
"Oh, oh!"
Itadori Yuji reacted and hoisted the half-body onto his shoulder.
Fushiguro gumi said nothing upon seeing this. Since the Special Grade Cursed Spirit had successfully hatched, their mission naturally ended here, and the rest was free play ti.
Clearly, judging by Kael's appearance, he still wasn't satisfied, so it was best not to disturb the Class Monitor's fun.
Hopefully, this Special Grade Cursed Spirit could give the Class Monitor so enjoynt.
However, looking at the current situation, it seed quite difficult.
"Divine Dog, lead the way."
Fushiguro gumi said to his Shikigami dog.
They hadn't run far when the three of them heard Kael's conversation with the Cursed Spirit from behind.
"Good baby, can you use Domain Expansion?"
"Hiss, hiss, hiss..."
"Tsk, you useless thing, you can't even use Domain Expansion, and you still have the nerve to be a Special Grade Cursed Spirit."
...
"Is the Class Monitor always this perverse?"
Kugisaki Nobara shrank her neck and whispered.
It was a double entendre.
If he could knead a Special Grade Cursed Spirit like dough, why bother coming to Jujutsu High?
"I heard that."
Kael's voice drifted into the ears of the three from afar.
"i i said it!!"
Kugisaki Nobara imdiately pinned the bla on Fushiguro gumi.
"You, you..."
Fushiguro gumi looked at Kugisaki Nobara in disbelief. Could this false accusation be any more obvious?
