Normal POV

"Special Grades are indeed anomalies among Jujutsu Sorcerers," the Kyoto High Principal began, his tone reflectingling seriousness. 

"I firmly believe that Grade 1 Sorcerers uphold the pinnacle standards of our craft, making them the most suitable leaders for our society."

He paused, allowing his words to sink in before continuing. 

"The missions they undertake entail a level of danger far surpassing that of any lower rank, even semi-grade 1," he emphasized.

As Aoi Todo and Mei Mei reunited with the principal, a sense of anticipation filled the air. 

The principal, keen to discuss matters regarding the students from Tokyo, particularly the first years, fixed his gaze on them expectantly.

"And yet," Gakuganji interjected, his curiosity piqued, "What request do you bring to me today?"

In a voice laced with purpose, Mei Mei spoke up, her words carrying a weight of financial savvy. "Maki Zenin, Panda," she listed, her tone unwavering.

"Megumi Fushiguro, Nobara Kugisaki, and my brother, Yuji Itadori," Aoi added, his voice resonating with conviction.

"In the name of Aoi Todo," he declared.

"And in the name of Mei Mei," she echoed.

"We recommend them for promotion to Grade 1 Sorcerers," they concluded in unison, their joint recommendation a testament to the remarkable potential they saw in the Tokyo students.

Sadako's POV

Fushiguro just told me, Kugisaki and Junpei not to inform Itadori about the fingers resonating Fushiguro request to keep Itadori in the dark about Sukuna's incarnation triggering the Yasohachi Bridge curse.

"Are you sure about that?" Kugisaki questioned uncertainly. I felt a familiar pang in my chest, but it was a sensation I had grown accustomed to. 

"I'm positive," I affirmed confidently. "Is the case closed then?" Fushiguro asked, turning his attention to me, and I nodded in confirmation. 

"Yeah, I completed the reports and finalized everything yesterday," I replied, a hint of surprise in my voice at the amount of paperwork involved in this particular case.

"It's likely that only Nitta-san and us would notice this. Itadori became Sukuna's vessel by chance," Fushiguro mused. "You really think so?" I questioned, meeting his frown.

"I have a feeling someone's behind this," I interjected before Fushiguro could continue. "Why else would Itadori be so exceptionally powerful compared to normal humans?"

"He might be Sukuna's descendant," I stated and they looked surprised. "I can't pinpoint who's plotting this, but my gut tells me things could take a turn for the worse. Be careful."

Junpei interrupted nervously, "Aren't we getting off track?" 

I brushed off his concern with a casual shrug. "Who cares? The deaths at Yasohachi Bridge were inevitable after my awakening anyway," I remarked dismissively.

"In the end, he swallowed the finger to save me. But that explanation won't sit well with him, so let's keep it between us," Fushiguro concluded.

"I won't breathe a word. After all, I'm a considerate lady," Kugisaki declared proudly. With a chuckle, I excused myself to find Itadori. 

In an isolated corridor I see him walking away and call him. "Oh, Yuuji—"

"This is all your fault!" Sukuna's voice interrupted, startling me.
