However, thanks to Miyauchi Hiyage's hints, Itou Kaiji has also learned that Tohru is an exceptionally powerful superhuman and will also be their future colleague.

Miyauchi Hiyage Hikari was quite certain that the normal Itou Kaiji would never dare to provoke the seemingly cold-blooded Tohru.

The explanation for Miyauchi Kouka's situation is even easier to find.

The eldest daughter of the Shinomiya Family invited him to lunch. Could he possibly refuse?

Even if Miyauchi Kouka didn't believe this explanation at all and strongly suspected that there was something going on between him and Shinomiya Kaguya, as the lowest-ranking member of the Miyauchi Family, Miyauchi Kouka's protests were mostly irrelevant.

In any case, Miyauchi Hiyage didn't think her older sister would have the guts to go to Shinomiya Kaguya to verify the truth.

Perhaps because of Miyauchi Hiyage's rather scumbag behavior before their parting, Shinomiya Kaguya Miyauchi Hiyage didn't say much to him in the car.

It wasn't until the car arrived at the entrance of the Jujutsu High that she put aside what had happened before and began to introduce the academy to Miyauchi Hiyage Jujutsu High.

Chapter 226: Tokyo Ghouls

Tokyo Sorcery High is located in the suburbs of Tokyo, in a remote mountain area that is usually deserted.

However, the people who are ignored here refer to ordinary people. For the superhumans in the Reverse Side World, the Jujutsu High is a major gathering place for superhumans in Tokyo.

After all, the Mystery Revival has only been around for about twenty years, and "Special Grade" combat power is still quite valuable. In most extraordinary forces, having one Special Grade combat power is enough to gain a foothold in the Reverse Side World.

Although there are only three officially recognized Special Grade sorcerers in the Jujutsu Society, there are still a few Sorcerers combat strength is at the Special Grade level but who have not been granted the Special Grade title by the higher-ups in the sorcery world.

Satoru Gojo, who became the strongest Sorcerers in modern times when he was still a high school student more than ten years ago, suddenly appeared. In less than ten years, the Jujutsu High made Sorcerers the third largest force in Tokyo, after Japanese Buddhism and Shinto.

As a place for training Sorcerers and assigning Sorcerers tasks, the Jujutsu High has developed over the past ten years. Not only do Sorcerers study and live here, but it has also attracted many other extraordinary individuals recruited by the Jujutsu Society.

Out of respect for a strong person like Satoru Gojo, they chose to attach themselves to the Jujutsu High.

Even now, when Miyauchi Hiyage thinks of Satoru Gojo, the first thing that comes to mind is still the two memes: "We will win" and "I'm so sorry I couldn't get Sukuna- sama to use his full strength."

But to be fair, Satoru Gojo is indeed quite formidable in this era.

His pseudo-infinite endurance in normal state, high destructive power, absolute defense that cannot be broken without a domain, teleportation ability, plus his own talent.

If it weren't for the century-long Blank caused by the mysterious decline, the Jujutsu Society would have lost many secret manuals and documents, and many techniques would have been lost during this period. The battle between Satoru Gojo and Sukuna might have dragged on for a few more chapters.

However, this is where Satoru Gojo's potential is limited.

Although there is no such concept in the Reverse Side World, for Miyauchi Hiyage, a junior officer whose combat power he had spent every day reading discussions about "quasi-Admiral" and "Super Kage" on various online forums in his previous life, he tentatively placed Satoru Gojo at the threshold of "Super Special Grade".

After all, Jujutsu Kaisen really did expose Satoru Gojo's true colors.

There are mechanisms, but not many.

The Unlimited Void sounds impressive, but it's only used to clear out mobs. The Innate Technique that are "no less than Satoru Gojo" that are created later in the manga are the ones that truly utilize the game's mechanics.

Six Eyes does have numerical values, but it's far inferior to pure numerical monsters like Sukuna.

Therefore, given the flawed mechanics, insufficient information, inadequate numerical values, and the fact that Sukuna could be Void patched and exploited by the author, it's not surprising that Satoru Gojo lost to Sukuna.

It can only be said that Satoru Gojo's departure was rather undignified, which is why netizens are making so many jokes about it.

However, considering that Satoru Gojo basically dominates all Special Grade opponents except for Sukuna, and that Ryougan only has a slight advantage over others, it's understandable that he might be able to easily defeat them.

Now that Miyauchi Hiyage has the qualifications to fight against Special Grade Spirits thanks to Unlimited Blade Works and the Dragonslaying Holy Sword, he thought about it and realized that he probably still couldn't mess with Gojo Satoru Gojo. Being able to fight against ordinary Special Grade Spirits should be his limit.

The next step is to improve your stats in all aspects.

Looking at the gates of the Jujutsu High, and at Yotsuya Miko and the panda waiting for her at the school gate, Miyauchi Hiyage turned to look at Shinomiya Kaguya.

"That's Yotsuya Miko, my good friend. She's an extraordinary person who suddenly awakened the 'Spirit Vision'. She's currently a first-year student at the Jujutsu High, just like me. If you're willing to join the Jujutsu High, she will be your classmate in the future."

"That panda is a second-year student. It's said to be a suddenly mutated cursed corpse born by accident, with self-awareness. The principal probably knew you were coming to visit the Jujutsu High, so he specially invited it to welcome you."

It has to be said that even though she already knew about Miyauchi Hiyage's talent, Shinomiya Kaguya still felt a little envious when she saw the principal specially calling Panda over to welcome Miyauchi Hiyage.

After all, when she and Yotsuya Miko were brought here, if they hadn't been lucky enough to run into Satoru Gojo, who had just woken up, no one would have come to welcome them.

"Yo, Little Kaguya, you're finally back," the panda greeted Shinomiya Kaguya and Miyauchi Hiyage as they got out of the car with a friendly smile.

It adopted a friendly demeanor, remembering the old man's instructions to take good care of Miyauchi Hiyage at the school and try its best to make Himekage develop a good impression of the Jujutsu High and stay there.

This is something that shouldn't be allowed to do, but recently a bunch of random guys claiming to be "ghouls" have inexplicably appeared in Tokyo and caused quite a stir.

The entire Reverse Side World of Tokyo is now engaged in a full-scale search for these suddenly appearing cannibalistic Evil Spirits and to find out how they suddenly appeared in Tokyo.

Even the old principal is now dealing with ghouls outside the school, which is currently the biggest issue in Tokyo.

Therefore, most of the teachers and superhumans at the Jujutsu High are not currently at the school, and the only reliable candidates among the students are the newcomer, Miko, and his Cursed Corpse Panda.

Panda also briefly explained the emptiness of the Jujutsu High School when he took Miyauchi Hiyage on a tour of the school.

"A ghoul?" Hearing the panda's sarcastic remark, a slight fluctuation appeared in Miyauchi Hiyage's eyes.

Of course he knew the origins of ghouls.

According to Panda, those ghouls seemed to have suddenly appeared in Tokyo, and no matter what methods were used, they could not find any trace of them before they appeared.

It sounds as if those ghouls who originally lived in another world were suddenly transferred to this world.

Is this another crack in the world?

The situation might be different from Tohru's.

After all, the unstable spatial regions in the mountains of Asahigaoka are quite obvious, and anyone with a little perception can detect the spatial fluctuations in that area.

However, if those unstable spatial fluctuations occurred in a large city like Tokyo, they would probably have been discovered and sealed off immediately. The appearance of these ghouls would not have been completely undetectable.

Either these ghouls were created by conspirators and secretly placed in Tokyo, or they crossed over from the world of Tokyo Ghoul to this world in a way that is not easily detected.

I wonder if Kirishima Touka and Kaneki Ken have appeared in this world yet.

Although she doesn't have a good impression of ghouls, as long as they don't intentionally hunt humans, Miyauchi Hiyage feels that she can barely accept them.

However, given the large-scale actions taken in the Reverse Side World, and considering the influence of other ghouls that wantonly hunt humans, these more neutral ghouls are likely to be targeted for extermination as well.

Moreover, the scale of the cleanup operation will definitely be much greater than in the world of Tokyo Ghoul.

However, this matter wasn't that important. Miyauchi Hiyage, who hadn't originally planned to save the ghouls, just kept it in mind and intended to mention the ghouls in the second batch of Diary. If Kirishima Touka was the holder of the second batch of Diary, these things should be able to provide her with some help.

But that's all.

After learning about ghouls, he set his sights on Yotsuya Miko.

Having Jujutsu High for some time, and having barely returned home during the entire Golden Week holiday Yotsuya Miko looks much healthier now than in the manga.

In the manga, Yotsuya Miko has no way to deal with those Vengeful Spirit Evil Spirits, and can only grit her teeth and pretend with teary eyes that she can't see anything.

Now, after passing the entrance exam, Yotsuya Miko is like a completely different person. She is wholeheartedly devoted to her training, only thinking about becoming a true Sorcerers as soon as possible so that she can personally eliminate those terrifying Vengeful Spirit and cursed spirits.

And these changes also occurred because of my appearance.

Miyauchi Hiyage was very pleased with this.

If all those girls had the same awareness as Yotsuya Miko, he could hide away and write in his diary to collect rewards, and these girls could make good use of the benefits of the Diary to change their lives and enhance their strength. Wouldn't it be great if everyone could win together?

Watching Miyauchi Hiyage and Yotsuya Miko chat, Shinomiya Kaguya felt that the other party seemed less polite and more sincere than when they met before.

Does Miyauchi Hiyage like this type of girl?

Sitting in the car, Shinomiya Kaguya looked at Miyauchi Hiyage with a slightly strange gaze because she had seen Miyauchi Hiyage and his two childhood friends being intimate that morning.

But after calming down, she also realized that Miyauchi Hiyage, as a male supporting character who had never appeared in a light yuri manga, was indeed labeled as all-around and genius.

But that was just a light yuri work, not a true yuri masterpiece.

Shinomiya Kaguya girls in the Chat Group these past few days, knew that light yuri (lesbian romance) stories feature female main characters but do not have obvious yuri elements. In fact, the girls in these stories might even have crushes or crushes on someone.

In this regard, in order to mitigate the impact, Miyauchi Hiyage should be treated as the kind of "harem anime male protagonist" who has never officially appeared in the manga, has a very low presence, is loved by everyone, and is slightly indecisive in matters of the heart.

Of course, based on Shinomiya Kaguya's interactions with Miyauchi Hiyage over the past two days, she also knew that Miyauchi Hiyage wasn't the kind of person who treated everyone equally and radiated friendliness like a central air conditioner.

To be precise, Miyauchi Hiyage does indeed fit his characteristic of having a low profile.

If it weren't for the fact that he filmed those horror videos being discovered, his statement at the beginning of the semester that he liked horror movies and wanted to make a movie like The Shining would have been enough to make him invisible in that class.

Those who are close to Miyauchi Hiyage are the only ones who can enjoy such gentle treatment from the other party.

Women are not the only ones who can be treated this way by Miyauchi Hiyage.

The attitudes of the young men from the photography studio in Asahigaoka, such as Koshigaya Suguru, and Sakakibara Kouichi and Itou Kaiji in Tokyo, as well as the attitudes of Miyauchi Hiyage towards them, were also quite good.

Thanks to Shinomiya Kaguya's various schemes, she has managed to barely make it into this group, but she is clearly not as good as Shiina Mashiro and Honma Meiko, who knew Miyauchi Hiyage beforehand.

However, Shinomiya Kaguya is not currently planning to "give herself away" to Miyauchi Hiyage like Mashiro Shiina Mashiro did, nor does she have the life-or-death bond that Honma Meiko and Miyauchi Hiyage share.

In fact, she has not yet developed romantic feelings for Miyauchi Hiyage.

Having witnessed her own foolishness in the face of love, Shinomiya Kaguya is now exceptionally sensitive to such emotions, and even the slightest hint of them is forcefully suppressed by her rationality.

All she wants now is to be a friend with whom she can have normal Miyauchi Hiyage and occasionally confide in, provided that Miyauchi Hiyage continues to be as outstanding as she is now.

She herself knew that her thoughts were very realistic, and perhaps that was why someone as shrewd as Miyauchi Hiyage always maintained a certain politeness when communicating with her.

Even though, at her request, she and Miyauchi Hiyage have now reached a "close relationship" where they can call each other by their first names, in essence, the "Kaguya" that Miyauchi Hiyage refers to is probably only at the level of "Shinomiya," which can only be said to be slightly higher than the relationship of "Shinomiya."

Could it be that Miyauchi Hiyage sensed through his "suspected mind-reading" ability that he wasn't entirely sincere, and then sensed Yotsuya Miko's affection for Miyauchi Hiyage, which led to this differential treatment?

Miyauchi Hiyage herself had no idea that simply by speaking a little more politely to Yotsuya Miko, she had caused Shinomiya Kaguya to start thinking about all sorts of nonsense, like exchanging hearts.

After all, Miyauchi Hiyage does have his own preferences when it comes to anime and manga.

Even among Shinomiya Kaguya's works, Miyauchi Hiyage's favorite female characters are Fujiwara Chika and Hayasaka Ai, with Shinomiya Kaguya ranking even lower.

The slightly saccharine yet pitiful character of Yotsuya Miko is quite appealing to Miyauchi Hiyage.

The same logic applies to the preference for Bocchi.

When facing these characters, Miyauchi Hiyage's attitude is naturally a little more friendly.

While Shinomiya Kaguya Miyauchi Hiyage doesn't dislike Kaguya Shinomiya, a woman whose mind is full of scheming and intrigue within the household, she actually quite likes Kaguya's current persona.

However, one must be more cautious when dealing with these people, and naturally, it's not so easy to let loose.

Chapter 227: Strength Verification

Yotsuya Miko had already heard a lot about Miyauchi Hiyage in the Chat Group.

The hidden genius male supporting character in Qingbai's works created several internet celebrity accounts with millions of followers by his own efforts, turning Asahigaoka, a small rural village, into a well-known online check-in spot.

She has "ambiguous" relationships with multiple Diary holders, helps Shiina Mashiro adjust her Breathing Technique, achieves transcendence, and travels to another world to save a giant dragon from that world.

Even though the other person was the same age as her, none of the things they did were things that Yotsuya Miko had ever thought of.

Especially considering that after guessing that ghosts and monsters might exist in this world, the other party was still so bold as to take people to those "haunted houses" to film paranormal videos.

Yotsuya Miko felt a certain amount of admiration and respect for such a genius.

Unlike her, when her eyes developed problems, her first reaction was to run away, which caused her to miss out on almost half a month of Reading Points income. Now, thinking about it, Yotsuya Miko feels a little regretful.

After all, the other girls in the Chat Group had already unlocked the commission module ten days ago and started earning extra Reading Points by completing commissions, while she had to wait another week to unlock this feature.

If she had been able to confirm the contents of the Diary sooner, she would probably be able to become a full-fledged Sorcerers by now.

However, precisely because she was already a step behind the other girls at the starting line, she was fortunate enough to join the Jujutsu High with her eyes, which she had once despised and even feared. She was also the one who trained the hardest in the school.

She just wanted to become Sorcerers as soon as possible, to have the ability to protect herself, and then gradually figure out what was wrong with her eyes.

Then, when I woke up this morning, I saw in the group chat that Yamamoto Yushiro, who had left Tokyo a few days ago to find Yamamoto Yushiro and followed the clues all the way to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, and who should still be there studying breathing Shinomiya Kaguya, suddenly said that she had met with Tohru and Miyauchi Hiyage.

Then the group chat suddenly became lively early in the morning.

After all, everyone now knows that Miyauchi Hiyage is a highly sought-after person, and everyone is also aware of the relationship between Shiina Mashiro, Honma Meiko, and Miyauchi Hiyage.

Including Kasumigaoka Utaha, those in the group who are interested in Miyauchi Hiyage are thinking of getting to know her through Shiina Mashiro and Honma Meiko Miyauchi Hiyage's connections.

As for Tohru, everyone remained calm, knowing that they needed to get to know the dragon girl after they met Miyauchi Hiyage before making any further plans.

Who knew that Shinomiya Kaguya would be so unethical, secretly running off to meet with Miyauchi Hiyage.

Shinomiya Kaguya was quite open and honest, answering everyone's questions with a clear conscience that the Shinomiya Conglomerate had discovered the future potential of online video and wanted to explore related industries. She happened to find that the foundation had the idea of investing in Asahigaoka Media, so she went over to meet with Miyauchi Hiyage and then discussed Breathing Technique.

The discussion in the group became even more lively when the "naive" Shiina Mashiro accidentally posted a screenshot that Miyauchi Hiyage had sent her to the group.

The screenshot shows Miyauchi Hiyage Shiina Mashiro brought him and for giving him the Shinomiya Kaguya Nichirin Blades. He is currently studying the principles of Sun Breathing and the Transparent World, and will repay Shinomiya Kaguya's kindness after he has fully mastered Sun Breathing.

This wouldn't have been a big deal, but Shinomiya Kaguya had mentioned in the Chat Group that the Transparent World she obtained was only an incomplete fragment, and she would study it for a while before posting it to the group. As for the Nichirin Blades, she couldn't produce any more for the time being due to the availability of materials, so no one really paid much attention to it.

Then, in the blink of an eye, they saw Shinomiya Kaguya take all of these to build a good relationship with Miyauchi Hiyage. The girls in the group immediately realized that Shinomiya Kaguya Miyauchi Hiyage was not as innocent as she claimed.

However, since these were all private matters, Kasumigaoka Utaha only cursed the thief in her heart, but continued to speak as usual in the group, and even explained a few things for Shinomiya Kaguya.
