Chihaya Anon didn’t linger long.
She carefully tucked the CD into her bag, said her goodbyes to Uchiha Ayato, and stepped out the door with a light, breezy gait.
Uchiha Ayato saw her off from the doorway, then casually pulled the door shut.
An inexplicable rapport had long since formed between the two of them; in their hearts, both felt that wrapping things up here today was already the most ideal way for it to develop and end.
As for the rest…
Why not leave it to time to slowly ferment.
With the room gone quiet once more, Uchiha Ayato went back to the sofa and sat down, staring blankly at the ceiling for a while.
Then he closed his eyes, meaning to rest for a bit.
Roughly ten minutes passed before the doorbell suddenly rang.
Uchiha Ayato straightened up, blinking in puzzlement as he looked toward the front door.
Even though there was still some distance between the living room and the entrance, he could nonetheless feel the immense cursed energy behind that door, the kind that pressed down on you until you could hardly breathe.
He opened the door, and—just as expected—the face of that sunny, cheerful big boy, Gojo Satoru, swam into Uchiha Ayato’s view.
“Yo, good afternoon, Ayato-kun…
Hm?” Gojo Satoru had started out grinning and waving hello to Ayato, but in the very next second, he froze on the spot.
Then he even pulled off his blindfold and looked Uchiha Ayato over, slowly and carefully, the way you’d examine an alien: “Interesting, interesting.
Compared to yesterday, your cursed energy’s doubled again.” “Ayato-kun, are you a monster?” “Well, whatever the case, this is a good thing.” Gojo Satoru put his blindfold back on and asked offhandedly: “The idol meet-and-greet yesterday—did you have fun?” “It was an absolute delight, Gojo-sensei.
I doubt I’ll forget it for the rest of my life.” Uchiha Ayato nodded without batting an eye, turning sideways to make way: “But speaking of which, why exactly are you here, sensei?” “Has the Itadori Yuji matter been settled?” “Ah, more or less settled, I suppose.” Gojo Satoru nodded, showing no intention of coming inside: “After a round of warm and friendly conversation, Yuji has decided to accept his fate as the ‘vessel’ and is preparing to step into hell.” “He’ll be transferring into Jujutsu High next, and as for me, I’ll be heading back to Sendai with him in a little while—his grandfather’s funeral arrangements still aren’t finished.” Uchiha Ayato: And the meaning of this is?
If you’re going with someone to handle their family’s funeral, then put your heart into it for me!
Why are you carving out time partway through to sneak off over to my place?
Having heard Gojo Satoru out, the corner of Uchiha Ayato’s eye twitched faintly: “So…” “Since your schedule’s that tight, what exactly did you come to my place for, sensei?” “For you, of course!” Gojo Satoru wore a look of utter matter-of-factness: “I’m a responsible, good teacher—I can’t go playing favorites.” “Since things are all arranged on Itadori’s end, I can’t just leave your side untended either.” “And so, before setting off, I made a point of carving out the time to come give you a little special lesson.” “A special lesson?” Uchiha Ayato tilted his head slightly, not buying into Gojo Satoru’s words much: “Sensei, before this so-called ‘special lesson’ begins, how about you give me a hint about what’s in it?” “If it’s basic instruction like having me practice how to refine cursed energy, or how to control my emotions…” “Then I might as well just go take a nap.
Pouring out meaningless sweat isn’t what a smart person does.” Hearing this, the smile on Gojo Satoru’s face grew all the more brilliant.
What an arrogant little brat.
But it was precisely because of that that he found Uchiha Ayato so much to his liking.
“Of course I won’t be teaching you the sort of content only little kids would go and learn.
What I plan to teach you is…” Gojo Satoru raised a single finger and waggled it, his smile turning inscrutable: “The core of cursed energy.” Not waiting for Uchiha Ayato to react, Gojo Satoru brought his two hands together: “If you can manage it, then keep up.” The next instant, that tall figure simply vanished into thin air, leaving behind only a ring of surging air currents where he’d stood.
Cursed Technique Lapse: «Blue».
Harnessing extreme attractive force to forcibly compress the distance between two points, thereby achieving an effect close to instantaneous teleportation.
Uchiha Ayato immediately activated his Sharingan, using Chakra to replicate the exact same operating pattern as Gojo Satoru.
The space ahead of him abruptly caved in, and an enormous dragging force yanked at his body.
In the blink of an eye, Uchiha Ayato had already appeared on the rooftop of another apartment building; the moment the tips of his toes pressed firmly down, the space before his eyes warped once more.
After several leaps, he had completely left the clamor of Ikebukuro behind.
However, while making use of this seemingly miraculous means of displacement, Uchiha Ayato felt anything but pleased inside.
The principle behind «Blue» is compressing spatial distance, but that doesn’t mean the path between two points is a perfectly empty shortcut.
If there’s a building or a person along the movement path, the body, dragged along at high speed, will slam solidly into it—the travel experience in an urban area is dreadful.
Hah.
Looks like the Limitless cursed technique is nothing more than this after all.
I’ll still have to find a chance to cozy up to Itadori Yuji and get my hands on the Flying Thunder God Technique from the social quest reward.
That’s spatial jumping in the truest sense—far more convenient than this «Blue» pseudo-teleportation that you have to worry about smacking into walls with.
By then, Uncle Ayato would be able to fly all over Neon.
Passing over a few mountain ridges, his field of view opened up all at once, and a vast, uninhabited forest came into sight.
In a clearing within the woods, Gojo Satoru was already standing there.
He watched as Uchiha Ayato’s figure landed with pinpoint precision right in front of him, his gaze settling on the activated Sharingan of the other party, and a satisfied smile surfaced on his face: “Switch it on when you need it, switch it off when you don’t, never having to worry about taking in superfluous information in daily life…” “What a convenient pair of eyes, Ayato-kun.” “By the looks of it, you’ve pretty much grasped the basic method of using «Blue».” “But maintaining Limitless is quite a drain on you as you are now, isn’t it?” Gojo Satoru raised a hand and undid his blindfold, exposing those “Eyes of the Azure Heavens” fully to the air: “Is it because I’ve never used the reversal of Limitless in front of you, so you’ve had no way to analyze and copy it?” “In that case, let your teacher help you patch up your weak spot.” As he spoke, Gojo Satoru took up a fighting stance toward Uchiha Ayato, his expression gradually growing excited: “If you ask what method lets a person rapidly amass a great deal of experience, nothing beats real combat.” “Onto the table you go, Ayato-kun.” [Combat Quest: Complete Hatake Kakashi’s surprise exam.
