In front of us was an old building, oozing in cursed energy.

"YOU LIAR!" the three of us yelled.

"There are curses here, aren't there?" thanks for stating the obvious Megumi!

"DON'T TOY WITH US COUNTRY FOLK!" Kugisaki continued yelling as Yuuji switched sides completely.

"There's a huge cemetery, you know. Which means there's a curse outbreak there and in the abandoned building too." Satoru explained as the pink haired boy nodded attentively.

"I'm guessing they're easy to come out of a gravesite?" He asked confused and I sighed, pouting.

I really wanted to go sightsee but I'm guessing we were never going to actually go.

"It's not the graveyard. It's with the mindsets of people who think graveyards are scary." Fushiguro explained.

"I see, so it's like what happened at school." He hummed and looked at the building.

"Hold on a second. This guy doesn't know such things?" Kugisaki asked baffled.

Well, I wouldn't either if Saya hadn't been explaining that shit to me over the years.

"The truth is..." Megumi sighed in defeat.

...

"He swallowed it!? The cursed charm!?" Kugisaki yelled, stepping away from us.
"That's nasty!! No way ! How unsanitary!"

"I feel the same." Fushiguro nodded and Yuuji turned to me, hoping for some support.

"Sorry, swallowing a shriveled finger is absolutely disgusting." I looked away from his face.

"You ate a cursed object too!"

"Yeah but mine looks like cotton candy!" I yelled back.

"You ate a cursed charm too!?" Kugisaki stared at me wide-eyed.
"Ew, ew, ew!"

Gojo cleared his throat before starting to talk again.
"I want to know how far you guys can go. Well, it's something like a practical test."
Satoru looked at us all.
"Nobara, Yuuji, Y/n. The three of you should go and exorcise the curses inside the building."

"Huh? But you can only exorcise a curse with another curse, right? I can't use sorcery." Yuuji looked at our teacher.

"You're already something like a half-curse. Cursed energy is already flowing through your body." Satoru pulled out a fat knife in a sheath.
"But, well, you can't control it in a day so, use this."

Yuuji accepted the weapon with sparkling eyes.
"Wooow."

"It's a cursed weapon walled 'slaughter demon'. As its name entails, it's a weapon with cursed energy confined inside. This should be effective on curses." Gojo explained further and the sparkles around Yuuji multiplied.
"Y/n, I saw you pull out a sword during your interview?"

"You mean this?" I asked and started pulling out a katana out of my shadow.

"Is this a technique?"

"Not quite?" I tilted my head. "Sayato is something like a curse of darkness? Dunno, she was being vague about that, but to get to the point. I can store stuff in my shadow, but only small things for now, I think."
I shrugged and flipped my sword around in my hand.
"Sayato refuses to hold onto things other than weapons though."

"Well, as long as it's helpful." Satoru shrugged carelessly and the three of us approached the building.
"Oh, and Yuuji? You mustn't let Sukuna out. If you do, nearby curses will be killed instantly but the people nearby will also get dragged into it."
