She woke up tired

Her neck was sore, she had bandages on her head and everywhere she could see, and she was bound by thick rope with strange tags marked with the word "seal" written in the restraints. It seemed a bit much having her arms tied behind her back while her body was restrained by four sets of rope being hooked up by four corresponding pins on the wall, but she at least appreciated that they didn't underestimate her. She would describe the room as dark, but it was lit with countless candles giving the room a "holy" feel like they were planning on giving her an exorcism. Not that it would work in the first place, no devil would have such a silly weakness unless it was something niche like the vampire devil. The tags were a bit worrisome though, there were hundreds of them lining the wall and ceiling. She was sure they had a use, definitely to contain those trapped inside, but she wasn't really wanting to test how well the tags did at holding someone like her right now.

She looked down and noticed her previous ragged clothes were replaced with a white T-Shirt with jeans along with proper undergarments too. What was strange is that they also got her cup size ri-

Suddenly her train of thought was interrupted by seeing the door in front of her open revealing Gojo giving her a playful smirk as he closed the door behind him.

"Oh, so your finally awake princess." He brought in a chair in and pulled it up close to her sitting the wrong way which didn't help with making him look even more immature. What ticked her off, is that it seemed deliberate that he was sitting on a chair while she was on the floor looking down on her. Of course, she wouldn't let her discomfort show, but it didn't make her any less angry at being trapped.

"So, you've kept me alive? I thought someone as strong as you would've ignored my pleas and done away with me after my bold attack on the Prime Minister."

"Eh not really, you committed only one fatality and the Prime Minister is firmly on our side as long as nobody in his main staff got injured. Then all I had to do was pick you up, fly back here, and presto! You're here. Also, I wouldn't advise leaving this place. This is a secure isolation room so any attempts to leave this place would be nearly impossible. Plus, I'm your guard!" he exclaimed pointing to himself with a goofy grin.

"I see, I'm at least glad I'm not any more hurt. must have a pretty good doctor around here," she groaned rolling her neck to relieve some pressure.

"Heh, you could say that she is I guess. Also, no problem, cause the more I thought about it, the more intriguing your skill set became to me," he said like it should've been obvious to her.

"How so?"

"Sigh, you exhibit both the traits of an intelligent curse and a human, while being incredibly powerful along with your techniques all without using cursed energy or being detected by observant users of such. From what I got from the Prime Minister, you wanted to make a Binding Vow with him that would grant you the health of all Japanese citizens. However, without you having cursed energy, you couldn't make a vow in the first place. Also, the power to brainwash people, shooting who knows what with just fingers screams the use of cursed energy. Also, you were still moving while you were in my domain, which should have immobilized you entirely even if it lasted only lasted less than a second. So I want to know how, and you're gonna tell me the truth." he said putting his hands together like he was some sort of intellectual.
