In a dark room fill to the brim with protection talismans and secrecy of the like, 5 individuals sat around the round table. Their faces were covered with a cloth with a singular kanji written 'Elder' on it and they were in formal traditional wear. Each looking strong in their own right.

" The balance of the world has shifted" another spoke, " The six eyes has been confirm being born to the Gojo clan"

" Ha! Let those fools eat each other! When the battle is nigh and the enemy fallen, I shall sweap in like a samurai and offer salvation!" a voice bellowed out.

On the outskirts of a lively town, Two teenage girls were seen fight a monster that has the body of a snake and the head of a goat. However, in the tree lines– where normal people cannot see– hid the examiner of the two, a man in his early 30's with dark green hair, tanned skin and dark eyes. What the most interesting thing about this man was the scar across his forehead.
" AH!! DiE! " The girl with short green hair swung her blade as Her partner, the girl with long pink hair pinned the Curse with multiple strings extending from her hands.
As the curse faded to nothing both girls sat on the ground in exhaustion. The examiner clapped as he came over them.
" Congratulations girls! This is your last curse for the day, you are finally grade 1 sorcerers" he handed them a small round golden plate.
This plate is their identification– this truly signified them being grade 1, they smiled
" Thank you Muzashi san"
The girls have taken out a total of 40 curses within the day, each taking out 20. Within that 20 at least 5 were grade 1– including that last one.
" See you" Muzashi smiled sweetly then turn away, suddenly the smile turned more sinister. "Haha–"
" It seems like the ghost of old has returned. The upcoming era will be very interesting, shall I visit that old fool? Ha–" Muzashi disappeared laughing.
