Seeing that Toji wasn't speaking, Megumi Fushiguro turned his head away in disdain.
"Just as I thought, you're full of yourself!"
Toji Fushiguro's mouth twitched. He almost missed the days a few years ago when Megumi couldn't talk yet.
Not that Toji himself was any good at raising kids.
He'd just tape little Megumi—still sucking on a pacifier—to the wall with two strips of tape and go watch TV by himself.
Whatever, he's my own blood.
Toji scratched his head and waved at Megumi. "What technique did you awaken? Let me see."
Half a minute later.
"Huh???"
An incredulous shout rang out from the room.
Ten Shadows Technique! His son Megumi had actually awakened the Ten Shadows Technique, the one the Zenin Clan had dreamed of for generations!
"What's wrong?"
Megumi clearly had no idea how rare and powerful his technique was, but he could tell from Toji's expression that it was no ordinary thing.
Toji blinked, his face returning to calm.
"Nothing. The technique's decent. I'll try pulling some strings to find you a good teacher."
Toji himself was strong enough, but as the Sorcerer Killer born without any cursed energy, he had no way to teach Megumi.
After Megumi and Tsumiki Fushiguro left the room, Toji pulled out his phone and dialed a number.
At the Zenin Clan, Naobito Zenin's phone buzzed.
Seeing the caller, Naobito was quite surprised.
Toji Fushiguro.
For the Sorcerer Killer who had single-handedly slaughtered half the Zenin Clan, Naobito felt both hatred and regret.
But the Zenin Clan simply couldn't beat him. They couldn't take revenge, and they couldn't swallow their pride to invite him back—not that he'd want to come anyway.
Luckily, though Naobito was also a stubborn old man, he was relatively open-minded by the Zenin Clan's standards and still kept in touch with Toji privately.
Answering the call, Naobito laughed. "Toji, what's the matter?"
Toji said flatly, "It's about my son."
"Oh? Did your son awaken his technique? If you're selling, the old price stands—ten billion..."
"I changed my mind. I'm not selling. Just letting you know."
Click—
Naobito stared at the hung-up phone, unable to snap out of it for a long time.
That was ten billion!
That guy Toji... had he changed his ways?
After hanging up on Naobito, Toji scrolled through his contacts and found another number labeled "Mission Target."
Beep beep beep—
At Jujutsu High, Riko Amanai blinked, opening her phone to see an unknown caller.
"Moshi moshi?"
"Are you... Riko Amanai?"
"Yeah, that's me. Who is this?"
Toji rubbed his chin awkwardly. "I'm... uh... Toji Fushiguro..."
Riko immediately cut him off, shouting emotionally, "Huh? You're that bastard who was hunting me?! How do you have my number?"
Hearing that, Toji felt even more awkward.
"Well... when I take a mission, I investigate the target, so..."
"..."
Even though she'd learned from Gojo Sawa and the other two that this guy named Toji Fushiguro had turned over a new leaf, Riko had no goodwill toward the assassin who'd tried to kill her. "So what do you want from me, you bastard?"
Toji took a deep breath. "I don't have Gojo Sawa's number or the others', so I wanted you to pass a message for me..."
"You want my help?"
Riko sounded like she'd just heard the joke of the century.
"Come on, old man! A month ago you were chasing me with a knife, and now you want a favor?"
"Ten million."
"...Deal."
"Tell those three for me—say my son Megumi Fushiguro has awakened the Ten Shadows Technique, and ask if they're interested in becoming his teacher, teaching him sorcery. I'll pay tuition."
"That's it?"
Toji Fushiguro thought for a moment, touched the scar on his face, and added, "One more thing—no Gojo Sawa."
"..."
After hanging up the phone, Riko Amanai thought it over and decided to go find Gojo Satoru.
But clearly, Gojo Satoru had no free time at the moment.
He was experiencing the most important moment of his sorcerer career—unleashing his Domain!
Ever since awakening the Reverse Cursed Technique, his strength had skyrocketed across the board.
Cursed energy reserves, cursed energy manipulation, techniques...
Now, he could keep the Limitless active automatically all day long.
But that wasn't enough. Back outside the Tombs of the Star Corridor, even teaming up with Suguru Geto hadn't been enough to beat his older brother Gojo Sawa.
He had to master Domain Expansion!
Domain Expansion—the ultimate secret art of jujutsu.
It consumes a massive amount of cursed energy to construct an innate domain imbued with a technique around the user, simultaneously activating the technique imbued within the domain to guarantee a hit.
Gojo Satoru believed that once he mastered Domain Expansion, pinning his brother beneath him would no longer be a dream!
With that conviction burning in his heart, Gojo Satoru's focus sharpened to a razor's edge.
Within his body, positive and negative cursed energy eerily merged and separated, cycling through the process endlessly, the strange ripples expanding outward.
At a certain moment, Gojo Satoru's eyes snapped open.
He instinctively raised his right hand, curling his ring and pinky fingers toward his palm, bending his middle finger over the back of his index finger.
This was the Indra Seal, one of the twenty devas of Esoteric Buddhism.
Gojo Satoru spoke softly, his azure eyes shimmering with pure, translucent light.
"Domain Expansion: Unlimited Void."
Boom!!!
Cursed energy surged forth, forming a massive black sphere. Inside it, all color and sound ceased to exist, leaving only a black hole-like substance standing eternally in that space.
In an instant, Gojo Satoru's mind received feedback on his domain's technique.
It forcibly floods the enemy's brain with a torrent of useless information, causing their mind to crash, leaving them standing dumbly in place, unable to perceive anything.
A terrifying mental-type technique.
Gojo Satoru was ecstatic.
Badass! Absolutely badass!
With this killing move, Suguru Geto, dear big brother—they'd all be nothing but losers beneath Lord Gojo Satoru!
"Hehehehe..."
Gojo Satoru let out a goofy laugh, dismissed his domain, and scampered off to show off to Suguru Geto.
