Jujutsu Kaisen: Shadow King.

'sunglasses......'

"There are so many people covering their eyes in the technical high school~" Yuji Itadori sighed in his heart.

Suddenly he asked, "Since you don't want to be an office worker anymore, why don't you just become a sorcerer right from the start?"

"Say hello first."

Nanami Kento half bowed to Itadori Yuji very seriously and said, "Nice to meet you, Itadori-san."

See this.

Yuji Itadori was stunned for a moment, then he bowed back at a wider angle: "Hi, nice to meet you, thank you for your guidance."

After the two of them greeted each other.

“I already noticed it when I was studying in technical college.”

Nanami Kento put one hand on his waist, glanced at Huihara Yuu beside him, and suddenly said seriously: "Spellcasters are shit!"

"Ok??"

Yuji Itadori didn't understand, but he was so shocked that he even created the original black and white painting.

Nanami Kento continued, "Originally, when I was working part-time in middle school, I realized that, in a sense, the adult workplace is more dangerous than the battlefield we conventionally understand."

"Is that so?!" Yuji Itadori exclaimed in shock.

He had never had to worry about food and clothing since he was a child, and his pocket money was at least nine figures, but the only thing he worried about was the lack of parental company. His face was full of clear stupidity.

He doesn’t know about the adult world?

"But I still think that being a sorcerer is a more shitty job than having a normal job."

“So after graduating from technical secondary school, I went straight to work for a consortium.”

When saying this, Nanami Kento's tone was particularly heavy, and he obviously had some complaints about the job of a sorcerer.

"Your father, Mr. Yuji, the senior from Zenin, once advised me to avoid taking detours."

"But I was young and hot-tempered at the time. To put it bluntly, I was stubborn and didn't think there was anything wrong with my choice."

talking.

A rare trace of regret flashed across Nanami Kento's face.

"However......"

"It turns out that I was wrong. The advice given by Zen Master was correct."

"After leaving the world of sorcery, I, as a sorcerer, act as an ordinary office worker in the world of non-sorcerers."

"Working mindlessly for money, living a life that is constantly exploited by the company, and even having to deal with the unreasonable intrigues of some people."

"Everyone wears a mask of hypocrisy. Behind the false compliments, there is only endless irony towards you—"

"Don't think you are capable of anything and put on a sour face for everyone to see."

“That’s when I realized I had just entered a bigger garbage dump.”

"Since they are all shit, I might as well choose the one I am more comfortable with."

“That’s why I came back.”

At this time.

Somehow, Yuji Itadori and Yu Haibara started to get arm in arm with each other.

The two of them put their faces together, with the same "clear + wise" expression of eating melons, and blatantly whispered in front of Nanami Kento himself.

Yuji Itadori: “So dark~”

Huiyuan Xiong: "Is that so~"

Nanami Kento had a blank expression on his face and glanced at the two of them with a stern look.

Yuji Itadori and Yu Haibara were immediately frightened and separated, holding their hands behind their heads, turning their heads to the side and whistling at the same time, with an innocent attitude of "it has nothing to do with me".

"Compared to the intrigues and schemes in the non-magician workplace, at least everyone at Tokyo Polytechnic is very sincere."

"As a superior, the senior at the Zen temple is very generous with his money, including all five social insurances and one housing fund, and there are also regular group tours at public expense every year."

"Ugh?"

Yuji Itadori scratched his head in confusion:

“Why does Dad pay the salary?”

"Isn't he also a college teacher?"

"Do not."

Nanami Kento shook his head: "The two technical colleges are mainly backed by the Three Great Families and Tengen."

"The Kyoto High School is run by the conservative retired old men of the Three Great Families, while the Tokyo High School is run by the new generation of the Three Great Families. It is almost a one-man show for the seniors in Zenin."

"It can be said that Tokyo High School is one of Zenin-sama's many assets, and it is natural that it is funded by him, a top chaebol."

"Which way has more goods?"

Yuji Itadori slapped his head and said, "What is Tengen?"

"Tian Yuan is..."

"She's just an old lady security guard at the Polytechnic Institute, an unreliable minion. Just pretend she doesn't exist."

Kento Nanami wanted to explain, but Geto Suguru took over the conversation and directly instilled the idea that "Tengen = cheating" into Yuji Itadori.

"Oh."

Yuji Itadori nodded in understanding.

Nanami Kento held his forehead helplessly and continued:

"Yuji-san, please don't think that I'm the same as Zenin-senpai."

"I trust him, believe in him, and respect him, but I don't agree with him doing whatever he wants. I only stand on the side of the rules."

talking.

Nanami Kento put his hands in his pockets and turned his back.

"That's too much."

"In short, I haven't acknowledged you as a magician yet."

"Since Geto-senpai has entrusted me to be your temporary guardian, I will do my best to train you to maturity, in a way that is different from Zenin-senpai's...my own way."

"Even if you have the time bomb of Sukuna on you, you are still a useful person. I hope you can do your best to prove this and live up to everyone's trust and expectations of you."

"..."

Lower your head and take a deep breath.

Recalling what I have experienced along the way.

Yuji Itadori suddenly looked up, without a trace of confusion in his eyes.

"I have come to realize that I am weak and useless during this period of time."

"But I will become stronger!"

"If you're not strong enough, you can't even choose how you die!"

"Even if you didn't say it, I would try to make you admit it."

"Wait for me out front, I'll catch up soon."

Say it.

Yuji Itadori showed a confident smile on his face, tapped his forehead lightly with his right hand, and then pointed to the direction where Kento Nanami was.

With a smile flashing across his lips, Kento Nanami turned around and looked at Yuji Itadori.

"No."

"Not to me."

"I'm going to talk to Senior Zen Temple, after he wakes up."

"what?"

"Hi =="

Yuji Itadori staggered.

Recalling the horrific scene of his father destroying the world before, the surging enthusiasm that had just been ignited in him immediately melted like ice and snow, and his rationality returned.

"To put it bluntly, I don't care!" Nanami Kento emphasized seriously.

"I know, I know ==" Yuji Itadori replied helplessly.

aside.

Xia Yujie watched all this silently with a gentle look on his face.

……

In the movie theater.

Following the traces of cursed filth.

Yuji Itadori and Kento Nanami followed the old stairs all the way to the rooftop of the building.

"The surveillance camera didn't capture anything, right?" Yuji Itadori asked suddenly, still holding the two umbrellas he had held before.

"Ah."

Nanami Kento didn't turn around and replied, "Besides the victim, there was only one boy."

"Is the prisoner a cursed spirit?"

"Well~"

"this......"
