Time skip.
After entering the house, Keitaro had made sure to carefully place Alistair's body down on a nearby sofa.
The man was still down from the count after having his soul taken and given him back to him in the span of like 30 minutes or so.
Through this man he did see how much power could influence a man, he never wanted to be this power-hungry in the future.
He hoped that his future self would be anything but power-hungry, he was in no mood to become a powerful obsessed maniac.
He had plenty of power as it was right now, but that did not mean he would not seek out more power, what that did mean was the simple fact that he wouldn't accept the power if it came at the cost of someone else happiness, livelihood, and so on.
He could tell that Eleanor was pissed, she seemed to be quite pissed at her husband, Keitaro felt that at this rate she might just cut this man's dick off.
Welp, that was none of his business, he needed some fresh air, plus he had some pills to perfect before he went back to Japan.
Keitaro gave Eleanor a reassuring pat on the shoulder before excusing himself. He needed to clear his mind and focus on his next task—improving the curse energy pills he'd been working on.
The fight just now had just given him an idea, Keitaro's eyes went toward his hand, and upon closer look the poison seemed to have completely vanished from his body.
'my hand does feel numb though' Keitaro thought to himself as he realized that he felt just a bit weaker.
However, his condition was improving which to him would always be a plus.
Keitaro walked up to his room, the room he was basically given for his stay in their mansion, now that he thought about it.
The small house he had rented, he had barely used it.
Apart from storing his experiment in it, he hadn't used it much.
Speaking of the experiment, he should check them before he left, he was sure his pixie farm should have a couple of hundred pixies that he could feed to his companion.
As he entered the room, he made his way toward one of his cabinets, opening up the cabinet he took out a small scroll, he placed the scroll on top of the cabinet before spreading it open.
"Kai"
As those words left his mouth, all the material inside the scroll came out in a cloud of smoke.
He looked at the books, scrolls, and more importantly the jar where each ingredient was stored alongside the prototype of the pills.
Keitaro took out a chair and sat down on it, he took a deep breath before he began his work.
He took one pill that he hadn't used nature energy into yet before he started to pour nature energy within the pill.
With him having a lot more experience in using natural energy, he could now better mix the natural energy with the herbs already present in the mixture.
His control over nature's energy had matured so much that he even had a small thin layer of nature's energy around his body at all times.
Using his natural energy in the most advanced that he could, Keitaro started enhancing the pills, and to test out each of their effects, he would test them on his mouse and later himself.
Something he learned was the fact that the pill could not heal back limbs that were cut off, however, if the limb was cut off but reattached to the body, the pill effect could fix it.
However the hand wouldn't be fixed to 100%, more like 70%, and the person would need to go visit someone who could actually use reverse curse energy in order to get the arm fully healed.
As things stand right now, the pills weren't potent enough for that, however, they were potent enough to save him someone from the brink of death, as long as their body wasn't separated, it could speed up the body's natural healing speed.
He sighed to himself a bit, there was just so much work to do.
He leaned back on his chair, his eyes eventually landing on the phone.
Keitaro decided to take a break, taking out the phone he sent a text to Gojo.
---------------------
Keitaro:
Hey, everything going fine with you?
Gojo:
Yeah, everything's cool. But, are YOU okay?
Keitaro:
Of course! Why wouldn't I be?!!!
Gojo:
Three exclamation marks? Really? There's no way you're that excited to text me unless you're hiding something. Do you treasure our time that much? I'm touched. 😏
Keitaro:
Actually, I've been working on something new—a curse pill that jujutsu sorcerers could use in battle.
Gojo:
For real?
Keitaro:
Yeah, it's designed to help with healing during a fight, and it speeds up the body's natural recovery process. It's still in the testing phase, but it's looking good.
Gojo:
Nerd.
Keitaro:
Don't critique me just because I'm smarter than you.
Gojo:
If you're smarter than me, then the sun is more dense than you.
Keitaro:
What does that even mean?
Gojo:
You just proved my point.
Keitaro:
You're mocking me, aren't you?
Gojo:
Oh, it's learning.
