BLOOD RUSHED OUT OF MEGUMI'S MOUTH as he cough, his knees give up on the ground as he clutch his stomach because of the excruciating pain he's experiencing. The cursed flower sprouting through his stomach are draining his strength and the pain is not giving him a rest at all, which is causing him to lose focus in his Shadow Technique.

Maki, on the other hand, are still fighting with the unidentified cursed spirit. Although having a hard time, she still pursued on fighting the curse despite knowing the gap between their strength. But she can't just abandon her kouhai can she? And even if she can, why would she do that?

However, her fierceness can't win against a stronger foe. The reason why she's gritting her teeth as the curse wrapped her with its wooden vine. Her body trembled as she groan while still trying to make her body move. Infront of a strong foe, they're nothing but a bunch of inadequate beings.

"What do you think you're doing to my students?"

In a blink of an eye, the girl around its grasp, vanished. The curse turn its head towards the man clad in a white and blue kimono and there it saw the girl that was in its grasped earlier, coughing while sitting on the ground behind of the man together with the black haired boy.

The curse's instinct heightened as it look at him. It didn't see how the man saved the girl. That must mean that this man is not similar to those two. He's far more entertaining.

"Hanakata-sensei...?" Megumi whispered in awe as the man sits infront of him. His silver eyes gazing the sprout in his stomach before putting his three fingers into Megumi's stomach beside where the seed just sprout.

His silver arises stare through Megumi's black ones. He flashed a smile, "It will hurt a little, so take a deep breath, Megumi-kun." Without questions, Megumi take a deep breath and closes his eyes. There's no need to ask, as he trusts his sensei's ability.

"Urk!" Megumi bit his lip and his brows furrowed when he felt the stinging pain in his stomach, but then the excruciating pain subsided and his nerves have calmed down. When he opened his eyes he saw his sensei smiling infront of him.

To his surprise when he looked down in his stomach, the flower sprouting on it was gone, the wound are still there but the bleeding had completely stopped. He look back at his sensei's face again, his sensei's ability does not fail to amaze him everytime.

"Sorry, that's the only thing I can do, for now, you have to get in a safe place." Minoru look behind Megumi. "Panda-kun,"

"Yes, Hanakata-sama." Panda's voice erupted behind.

"Can you take them out of the curtain, this curtain were made solely to keep Satoru out of their way, that's why other sorcerers can get in and out anytime." He instructed.

"But, Hanakata-sensei. Even so... you can't-"

"Megumi-kun," Minoru stopped him from interjecting. "It's alright, I'm not alone." He said. Megumi looked behind him when two men appeared, it was Itadori and Todo Aoi from Kyoto Jujutsu High.

"Don't worry, Fushiguro. We'll handle it from here." The smiling Itadori said as he roll his arm.

Megumi stared at Itadori, memories from the Juvenile Detention Care flashed through his mind. That time before Itadori were announced dead, the expression Megumi seeing right now is far from the expression he saw Itadori held from that unfortunate day.
