Takaba's voice was not loud, but it was perfectly clear to Kenjaku's ears as a sorcerer.
A trace of surprise flashed across Kenjaku's face as he listened to Takaba.
He pulled out his phone and directly opened Mei Mei's livestream, showing it to Takaba.
"Your partner... wouldn't happen to be Jie Jian, who's fighting Sukuna right now, would it?"
The moment he saw that familiar figure on the screen, Takaba's eyes lit up.
"Yes, yes, that's him!"
He excitedly took two steps forward, wanting to see more clearly.
"He's my partner! Though we only partnered up once in a fantasy, hahaha."
Kenjaku narrowed his eyes and carefully examined the seemingly harmless man before him.
A partner in a fantasy?
Kenjaku's mind raced.
From Takaba's words, he could infer that Takaba seemed to share some special connection with the man named Jie Jian.
Just as Takaba was talking animatedly, Kenjaku suddenly looked at him and asked,
"You say he's your partner? But do you really understand him?"
"Of course!"
Takaba nodded instinctively.
Kenjaku let out a soft laugh beside him.
"Then tell me, what kind of person is he?"
"He..."
Takaba opened his mouth, only to realize he could not say anything concrete.
Though he hated to admit it, Takaba knew that he did not seem to understand Jie Jian at all!
Where did he come from?
Why was he so strong?
Takaba had never given those questions much thought.
Because he felt partners did not need to ask such things.
But now that Kenjaku had brought it up, those doubts suddenly surged over him like a tide.
"No, that's not it..."
Takaba said, trembling.
"Isn't it?"
Kenjaku stepped closer, one step at a time.
"Then tell me, why didn't you even know that your partner was an ancient sorcerer?"
