Chapter 72 - Eiji’s Mindset Change

School Goodwill Event.

As known, there are only two jujutsu educational institutions in Japan dedicated to nurturing the next generation of Jujutsu Sorcerers: Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu High School and Kyoto Jujutsu High School.

The School Goodwill Event is held every year as a competition between the two schools in the middle of the academic year after the busy season for Jujutsu Sorcerers in the summer.

"The School Goodwill Event lasts for two days, and the competition will be watched by the heads of both schools. Of course, I'm participating." Satoru pointed to himself, smiling proudly.

"It's like a Sports Festival." Maki compared the School Goodwill Event to the Sports Festival. Except for occasionally exterminating Cursed Spirits, it felt like a regular high school for her. After all, they also had to study the general curriculum.

"Gojo-sensei, what competitions are held?" Panda asked diligently, considering other students were either quiet or unable to speak freely.

"Usually, team battles on the first day and individual battles on the second day. However, this tradition was broken by me."

Discussing this, Satoru's lips curved into a satisfied smile.

Supporting her face with her hand, Maki asked curiously, "What does it have to do with Gojo-sensei?"

"That's because I'm too strong~ Not a single student from Kyoto Jujutsu High School at that time could match my brilliance. So, both principal agreed to end the competition with a two-team match. Even so, it didn't change my victory~"

"..."

Seeing Satoru strike various poses, Maki's eyes narrowed, and she turned her face to the side. However, what she saw was Eiji's face, 80% similar to the narcissistic man in front of her. Therefore, she turned to Toge, who was much more comfortable to look at.

"Most likely, there will be a two-team competition. Why? You should have guessed the reason, right? Okay, that's it. You may disperse."

After completing the teaching task, Satoru left the classroom first.

"With Kamiki, the School Goodwill Event this year will surely be won by Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu High School."

"Salmon."

Toge nodded in agreement with Panda's statement.

Standing in front of Eiji, Maki said rudely, "Kamiki, accompany me in training."

"I refuse; there's something I need to do. Just ask Panda or Inumaki."

"Tsk, he's been absent a lot lately."

Watching him leave, Maki clicked her tongue in annoyance.

Panda patted her shoulder and explained, "Well, don't be angry, Maki. You know, Kamiki is a Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer; he might be busy exterminating Cursed Spirits. I heard the frequency of Cursed Spirit appearances has increased lately."

"Let's go to the field, Panda, Inumaki."

"Yes, mom."

"Kelp."

"Who are you calling mom, Big Panda!"

"Aaahhh... Sorry!!!"

In the corridor, the sound of Panda running chased by Maki was heard, while Toge followed behind.

...

At the same time, Eiji walked down the stairs adorned with torii at every few steps.

"It seems that only first-year students will participate in the School Goodwill Event this year. This must be Gojo-sensei's doing; he wants Panda and the others to have the experience of facing other Jujutsu Sorcerers."

He had read the basic guidebook about Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu High School.

Usually, second and third-year students participate in the School Goodwill Event, but first-year students can be allowed with the permission of their seniors. However, this time only first-year students are participating, showing how optimistic Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu High School is about the new freshmen.

Inumaki Toge from the Inumaki Family, Panda who is a Cursed Corpse, Zenin Maki with a Heavenly Restriction and superhuman physical prowess, and Kamiki Eiji from the Gojo Family also the bearer of the Six Eyes.

With a lineup of students like this, there is no hope for Kyoto Jujutsu High School to win.

"Moreover, Todo Aoi is still a freshman, and his power is not as strong as shown in the plot. Even though his strength is formidable, he is not my match."

Among the Kyoto Jujutsu High School students, Eiji only paid attention to one person, Todo Aoi!

Setting aside his idol maniac nature, Todo is an individual capable of competing with Special Grade Cursed Spirits!

Eiji even had low regard for Kamo Naritoshi from the Kamo Family.

Remember, the Kamo Family is one of the three sorcerer families, alongside the Gojo Family and the Zenin Family.

However, Kamo Naritoshi's strength is not as good as Todo Aoi, who does not come from a prestigious family.

"It should be fine here."

Feeling that he had stepped out of Master Tengen's surveillance barrier, Eiji observed his surroundings with the Six Eyes, and after ensuring there was no surveillance, he teleported to a safe location he had prepared.

Master Tengen has lived for more than 1200 years; Eiji did not want the destination of his teleportation to be traced by others.

The extent of Master Tengen's knowledge was beyond Eiji's imagination. So, he was always cautious and did not dare to underestimate her just because it maintained the order of the Jujutsu world.

"Being at school makes me feel like my every move is being watched. It's very uncomfortable." Eiji said, not entirely trusting Master Tengen.

Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu High School is protected by Master Tengen's barrier, who can guarantee that she does not have a method to monitor everything within her surveillance scope?

"Enough. It's time to work."

After calming his mind, Eiji returned to an indifferent state and activated one of the abilities of his self-developed Limitless Technique.

In silence, the space fluctuated, and his figure became invisible.

Eiji entered a stealth mode.

After that, he teleported once again.

...

Yasohachi Bridge.

This path connects two forested roads and allows cars to cross a deep waterfall, including a small river.

In the afternoon, not many people were seen except for cars passing by.

Unknown to the surrounding people, a Curtain had been set up on Yasohachi Bridge and could only be seen by Jujutsu Sorcerers.

"Curse Technique Reversal: Red."

At the tip of his finger, a red ball condensed, and Eiji pointed it at the Cursed Spirit in front of him and fired.

*BOOM BOOM BOOM*

The repelling force shattered the Cursed Spirit without a chance to fight back.

Approaching the slowly disappearing Cursed Spirit, Eiji bowed and placed his fingers on the ground.

"This is the third one. It's enough; there's no need to go further. My actions have already deviated the plot from its course; don't make plot changes again, or it will boomerang."

He realized that since acquiring information from Lin Fan's memories, he relied on it too much.

It's not good.

His mere existence has influenced the plot even though he didn't do anything.

Therefore, Lin Fan's memories can be used as a reference, but they should not be considered absolute truth. If not, he will pay a painful price in the future.

Eiji has adjusted his mindset and dares to intervene in the plot if it is for his advantage.

"Let's go back before someone comes."

Putting Sukuna's Finger into the Storage Ring, Eiji deactivated the Curtain, then quickly left before any unforeseen events. Afterward, he teleported.
