บท 36: Chapter 36 : Yuta and Rika
After shaking Yuta awake, he opened his eyes and saw the people surrounding him. He immediately paid attention to their injuries.
"Everyone, are you okay? And Genichi, you're back too."
Genichi helped him up and said, "Everything is fine. I came back with Gojo-sensei. Something happened there, and we were delayed for a while."
Panda beside him said with a smile: "Yuta, you did a great job. You defeated that special-grade curse master by yourself."
Yuta watched Panda raise his left arm, which was missing half of it. The gap was filled with fluffy cotton. He exclaimed, "Panda! Your hand..."
Panda shook his cotton arm. There was also cotton bursting out on his chest, but he looked relaxed: "Don't worry, Yuta! My hands are different from theirs. I can deal with them in other ways later."
"Thank you for saving us."
"Salmon!"
The serious words of the Panda and the nodding of Toge made his eyes waver. Maki beside him may have changed his hairstyle and did not look as fierce as usual. Instead, she said softly: "Congratulations, Yuta, your wish has begun to come true."
With a smile from the heart, Yuta looked at his companions around him, and his heart seemed filled with something. At this time, a voice calling him sounded behind them.
Looking back, Rika had changed a little. Her head, which originally had only a mouth full of fangs, now had an upright eye. Although she was very calm now, her aura seemed to be even stronger.
Yuta was stunned for a moment, then stood up and walked towards Rika. Panda behind him asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Yuta."
Yuta's steps faltered, then he half turned around and said, not daring to look at them: "Well, I asked her to lend me her strength, and in exchange, Rika and I agreed to leave this world together."
"Ah? Aren't you just going to die? What are you thinking, idiot!"
Maki, who had regained some of her normal appearance, immediately stopped Yuta, who stammered and didn't know what to say. Then Genichi, on the side, suddenly stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Maki, causing her eyebrows to raise. But then, at Genichi's signal, she, Panda, and Toge were all stunned when they saw this scene.
The ferocious figure there had turned into black air flowing in all directions and was replaced by a petite figure, a girl.
"Rika."
"Pa pa pa." A round of crisp applause sounded, and everyone looked over and saw Gojo Satoru without his eyepatch walking over. Then Maki and the others asked in unison, "Who are you?"
Gojo Satoru's smile froze: "I am the handsome Gojo-sensei."
Gojo Satoru cleared his throat and continued, "Before, Yuta raised a point that I found very interesting, so I asked someone to investigate your family background. The investigation of Rika's family background was completed quickly, and there was nothing special about it. Yuta's family background was not clear at the time, and I found out only afterwards."
"So you are the descendant of Sugawara Michizane, which means that although the relationship is a bit distant, you are my relative~" Looking at Gojo Satoru, who was smiling a bit childishly, Yuta was a little confused: "Who is Sugawara?"
It was Maki and Panda who cleared up his confusion for him. This person was one of the three legendary vengeful spirits. He seemed to have been a real sorcerer in the jujutsu world and the Gojo family's ancestor. When Genichi heard what they said, he remembered some impression of him.
"So, Yuta's idea is correct. It's not Rika who cast a curse on you, but you who cast a curse on Rika."
The unforgettable scene once again reappeared in front of Yuta's eyes: the blood splattered on the road, the twisted figure falling in front of him, and the young him who almost collapsed at that time.
"Don't die!"
Gojo Satoru looked at Rika, who looked like a cute little girl and said slowly, "When the party that cast the curse abolishes the master-servant relationship, and the cursed party has no intention of punishing, the curse will be lifted. I can tell from Rika's expression."
Yuta felt as if something was gripping his heart. His legs softened, and he fell to his knees. The ground beneath him was wet with his tears. "It's all my fault. It was me who caused Rika to become like that, and also caused those people who were hurt because of me, as well as everyone, to be targeted. Everyone almost died. It's all my fault."
Yuta, who was almost crying, fell into deep self-blame. It turned out that he caused everything from Rika to the present. Even Panda, Maki, and Toge, whom he regarded as friends, almost "died" today because of him.
And the one who feels the most sorry is Rika.
It must be painful to be forced to stay by my side in that state.
"Thank you, Yuta."
A pair of small hands were placed on Yuta's head. Rika, who looked like a little girl, came over and hugged him, then said softly, "Thank you for giving me the opportunity to stay with Yuta. During these six years, Rika has been happier than when she was alive."
Yuta's eyes widened slightly, and then tears flowed again, but it was not entirely out of self-blame this time. The little girl hugged Yuta for a while and then let go. When Yuta raised his head, he saw Rika smiling sweetly, and her whole body seemed to be emitting a faint light.
Rika placed her hand on Yuta's face, wiped away the tears on his face, and then smiled and said, "Yuta, take care of yourself, and don't come to see me too early."
"Goodbye."
The light on Rika became brighter and brighter, and her body had begun to partially become illusory. As Yuta tried hard to smile and nodded, Rika's figure instantly turned into a sky full of clouds and floated up into the sky.
Everyone looked up at this beautiful scene, not knowing whether their attention was attracted by the scenery or their thoughts were drawn to the story between the two people. Looking at the rainbow light faintly reflected in the sky, everyone was silent for a while.
Yuta stood up and looked at the traces that disappeared into the horizon. He showed the most genuine smile with tears still lingering on his face.
On the other side, Genichi asked Gojo Satoru next to him: "Teacher, is love really a curse? Yuta cursed Rika unintentionally because of love, but in the end, both of them were redeemed because of love. Doesn't this mean that all these should be dialectically analyzed?"
Genichi paused at this point and then changed the subject: "Oh, I forgot. Teacher, you don't seem to have a girlfriend or anything, right? So naturally, you don't know much about this topic. It's understandable."
Gojo Satoru, who was smiling, couldn't hold back any longer: "Huh? You little brat!"
The war is over, and naturally, there are all kinds of follow-up work to be done afterward.
Repairs have already begun on the damaged buildings in Shinjuku, Kyoto and the Jujutsu High School. The casualties here are not heavy. The ringleader on Geto's side was killed, and the remaining gang members evacuated the battlefield quickly. Most of the dead were the cursed spirits.
After Shuten-doji was exorcised, the body of Minamoto Nana that Shuten-doji occupied was also carefully taken away by the high school. The healed body seemed to have returned to its original state, but Nana could not return to her own body immediately.
It should not be difficult to return to her body with her technique. She has the experience of "leaving her body" and returning, but according to her soul state, her body seems to have undergone some changes, making it difficult for her to return.
This aspect has also aroused Miss Ieiri Shoko's interest. Under her and Gojo Satoru's arrangement, research on this situation is being carried out. Many spell tools, barriers, and talismans have been used to stabilize Nana in her soul state. Although they don't know whether it will work, it's better to be on the safe side.
Judging from the current situation, it is only a matter of time before Nana returns to her own body, so we will leave it to Miss Shoko.
Maki and the others recovered quickly after being treated by Yuta, while Panda returned to Principal Yaga to repair his body. Afterward, after hearing about Genichi's achievements on the battlefield, they learned that he had exorcised another special-grade cursed spirit, the legendary Shuten-doji and that the other party could also expand his domain.
Several people had puzzled looks on their faces. On this side, Yuta single-handedly repelled and seriously injured the special-grade curse master Geto Suguru, and on the other side, Genichi killed a special-grade cursed spirit while the field was unfolding. Why did they feel so stressed just thinking about it?
"No, we can't let them leave us far behind. Panda, Toge, let's go train together."
Maki dragged them to the training ground. Genichi looked at Gojo Satoru after he finished talking with Yuta, who also handed him Yuta's lost student ID.
"I didn't find it, it was my best friend, my only best friend."
Gojo Satoru, whose eyes were wrapped in bandages, could not see the look in his eyes, and Yuta was not clear about what was going on, but Genichi probably understood the meaning and that Gojo's teacher's best friend...
Genichi was not the kind of person who could comfort others well. In fact, Genichi also felt that Gojo Satoru did not need anyone or anything to comfort him. Some things and emotions can only be experienced and endured by one person alone.
The saying that people do not share the same joys and sorrows is not a joke. The emotions caused by empathy towards their circumstances are usually one-sided. Even for the same thing, different people will have different emotional depths.
Perhaps the empathy you think you have is not as serious as the person involved, and I'm afraid you can only leave this to time. Things that people cannot erase will eventually be buried by time.
"By the way, Genichi, your first-level license has been approved. From now on, you are a first-level sorcerer."
Hearing Gojo Satoru's words, Genichi did not show any excitement and instead asked casually, "By the way, teacher. Miss Shoko is in charge of Nana's affairs, right?"
Wrapped in the chill brought by the surrounding snow, Gojo Satoru said calmly, "No, they were all sent by me personally. Nanami is also there."
His eyes, like Genichi's, fell on the three cursed swords on the latter's waist. After removing the curse attached to them, the three cursed swords not only revealed their ancient aura but also their clear blades like crystals. Even if they were not cursed tools, they were probably rare treasures.
"Since they lost this sword, it should be my trophy now." Genichi, who was walking behind, showed a cold expression. When he thought about the so-called strict protection that led to the loss of the Dojigiri sword in an instant, causing Shuten-doji to reappear in the world, and was also the cause of Nana's current situation, Genichi couldn't help but feel a little angry.
Gojo Satoru didn't have any special expression on his face. He agreed with Genichi's statement and said that he would be in charge of the rest of the matter.
Any further matters would have to wait until the real owner, Minamoto Nana, woke up. This matter would not be over so soon, and there was also the matter of weighing them. It seemed that those old guys needed to be "rectified."
