Jujutsu Kaisen: Shadow King.

Kyoto Polytechnic Institute.

Principal's office.

"In the magician rating, 'Special Grade' is an extraordinary existence that is out of the normal evaluation system."

"Therefore, in my opinion, the 'first level' should be the main force that guides other magicians and even the entire magic world forward."

On the office chair.

Jiashen of Leyan Temple had a deep and serious look in his eyes.

At the desk.

Toudou Aoi crossed her arms across her chest, while Mingming stood with her hands behind her back.

"In terms of danger, confidentiality, and salary, they are all vastly different from those of magicians below the 'quasi-first level'."

"And on this basis, you actually——"

Leyan Temple Jiashen paused, and Mingming and Toutang Aoi took over the conversation.

"Zenyuan Zhenyi, Panda."

"And my brother, Okudori Yuki (and my brother Yuji Itadori), with the 'first-class' magician Aoi Toudou and——"

"In the name of the 'first-class' magician Mingming,"

"Recommend the above three students to become first-level magicians!" x2

Something happened here.

Table tennis room.

"Those who are recommended by at least two first-level magicians must complete multiple missions with the current first-level magician or a magician with the first-level level."

"If they are judged to be qualified, they will be upgraded to 'quasi-level one' and then assigned to complete level one missions alone."

"Depending on the results of the mission, it will be decided whether he officially becomes a 'first-class' magician."

"Brother will definitely accept the recommendation." Toudou Aoi said confidently: "Do you know what this means? Ms. Ming!"

Toudou Aoi served the ball with a forehand, and Mingming spun and hit the ball: "What's the meaning? This is everything, Mr. Toudou!"

Boom!

White ping pong ball spinning at high speed.

When reaching the right bottom corner of the opposite table, it suddenly turns and bounces to the right!

Toudou Aoi instantly turned around and hit the ball with her backhand, creating an air explosion. The whole ball exploded and dented when it touched the table, and finally stuck to Mingming's side of the table, completely depriving her of the chance to catch the ball.

"Blue future."

Toudou Aoi stroked the racket in his hand, squinted his eyes and said with emotion: "This means that there is a blue future in which Toudou Aoi and Itadori Yuji complete the mission together."

“That’s the point!”

"This..." Mingming wondered what he wanted to remind.

However, Toudou Aoi interrupted him confidently, "No need to say more. I know what you want to say. The first-level magician traveling with me may not be me."

"But I am sure of it!"

talking.

Toudou Aoi took out a brand new ping-pong ball from his pocket and let it fall freely onto the table: "Just like an apple that falls off a branch will fall to the ground, we are attracting each other."

"Do you believe in gravity, Ms. Ming?"

"That's right!"

"That's-"

"Destiny!"

Aoi Todou serves the ball with great force, without any twists or turns, just the purest violence!

Mingming changed his strategy and used the same powerful method to make the miracle happen. He drove the ball at a low angle with all his strength, and reminded him lightly:

"No, what I want to say is——"

"The only person who can travel with the recommended person is a magician other than the recommender~"

Mingming finished speaking.

"Eh?!"

Todou Aoi's originally unbridled philosophical smile instantly wilted into an expression pack of facial expressions, his eyes lost their luster, and his face was sunken by the high-speed ping-pong ball, and he fell to the ground with a loud bang.

boom--

"We were the ones who recommended Yuji, so the one traveling with him must be a magician other than the two of us. It has nothing to do with fate or anything like that~"

"Thank you for your hard work. I'll leave first, Mr. Dongtang."

pat!

The lights in the table tennis room went out.

The sadness in Toudou Aoi's heart at this moment is enough to form a river.

……

After separating from Yuji Itadori and others, Nobara Kugisaki first bought two sets of underwear as the original ones were no longer fit.

Then I bought a cup of bubble milk tea from the beverage chain "Tokyo Young Lady" under the recently popular Group B.

now.

She was walking alone on the street, holding two paper bags in one hand, enjoying the sweetness of milk tea and the softness of pearls.

The mid-heeled shoes tapped lightly on the floor tiles, making a clicking sound.

Sudden.

A burst of hurried footsteps approached from behind, and Nobara Kugisaki turned around subconsciously.

"!!"

But see.

A tall girl who was a whole head taller than her was staring at her with her hands clasped over her heart with an embarrassed expression.

"Just now......"

"Are you with Yuji-san?" the girl asked in a low voice with blushing cheeks.

"what??"

Nobara Kugisaki was so surprised that she took a big sip of milk tea and tilted her head in confusion.

After a while.

"Tokyo Young Woman".

Chain store No. 139 in the th District.

“Welcome~”

The maid serving at the door bowed respectfully to the two girls who came in.

"A cup of full-sugar, iced watermelon water." Kugisaki Nobara walked to the counter to place her order. Suddenly she turned around and looked at the tall girl behind her and asked, "Would you like to have a cup too? It's my treat."

Ozawa Yuko lowered her head and shook her head: "Thank you, but I'm trying to lose weight recently, so I don't need it."

"Oh =="

"Then just order a glass of watermelon water."

Nobara Kugisaki confirmed this with the receptionist at the counter.

"Hey! A cup of signature watermelon water with full sugar and less ice, right?"

"Hmm..."

"Okay, the total is 80 yuan. Would you like to scan the code or pay in cash?"

"No need, I have a lifetime membership = ="

talking.

With an awkward expression, Nobara Kugisaki took out a high school student ID card in the style of a Yu-Gi-Oh card from her pocket and handed it to the receptionist.

beep—

Authentication passed.

"Ms. Kugisaki Nobara, is this the first time our store has welcomed a lifetime member? Can we take a photo together?"

The receptionist looked at Nobara Kugisaki with shining eyes and asked excitedly.

Lifetime membership = big connections

This is the first thing every employee who enters the store will be informed.

As for why the receptionist wanted to take a photo with Nobara Kugisaki so much, it was because——

There was once a store that framed a photo of its employees and lifetime members and hung it on the wall as a commemoration. One day the boss saw it and was so happy that he doubled the salary of all the staff in the store.

This incident caused a huge uproar in the store group, and other stores rushed to follow suit, but due to the small number of lifetime members, there was no movement for a long time.

But later on, I really got lucky with the second store.

after that.

The third, fourth, fifth...

Although the salary will not be doubled if this happens a second time, the boss will still provide benefits in other aspects, so the practice of taking photos with lifetime members has continued to this day.

"Is it coming again?"

Nobara Kugisaki complained impatiently, but still cooperated and took a group photo.

Other store employees also noticed that there was a lifetime member in the store, but because there were already store employees taking photos with him, they were tactful enough not to disturb him too much.

after that.

Nobara Kugisaki and Yuko Ozawa found a seat by the window and sat down.

"Kugizaki-san is so popular~" Yuko Ozawa exclaimed as she looked at the clerk at the counter who kept glancing over at her.

"Well = ="

"It has nothing to do with me = ="

"It's all because of a bad teacher's good deeds = ="

Kugisaki Nobara, who was already used to this kind of situation, took a big sip of iced watermelon water and asked, "So, what do you want from me?"
