Jujutsu Kaisen: The Traveler

Chapter 19

Hiroyuki, a couple of weeks ago, had just celebrated his birthday. Meaning, that he just turned 15 this year.

Now, throughout the years that had passed since the major incident about the kidnapping of one of the maids happened, many things have already occurred.

Well, so much time had already passed since then and it's not wise to not take advantage of all that given time. Not to mention that now, the 'Enemies' had also started to actively make their move compared to before.

Assassination and Sabotaging attempts against the Gojo Brothers have become a frequent occurrence nowadays and it's almost shameless how obvious some of it can be. Sometimes, it's even happening right in front of everyone's face. That's how dangerous things have become.

So given such happenings, Hiroyuki decided to not wait anymore and finally make his moves within the Jujutsu Society. Whether it was establishing and solidifying his position, developing his presence, or even dipping into political matters, he basically started doing everything now.

He's aware that the moment he does this, he will garner even more attention from both sides of the spectrum. Something he decided not to do back then since it would be annoying to deal with for sure.

But since things had gotten out of hand now, thanks to certain someone, might as well play the game already. In the first place, Hiroyuki did not have such leisure thought that everything would just go as he planned.

At least not anymore.

Well, he noticed that since his fight with 'Mamoru', some of the higher-ups within the Jujutsu society suddenly developed some weird interest in him. That alone is enough for Hiroyuki to realize that whoever was controlling Mamoru at that time, had some strong connections and influence up there.

One of the major reasons why Hiroyuki decided to do what he's currently doing.

Though it's indeed pretty odd to see a kid as young as Hiroyuki dealing with something so advanced and complicated as 'politics'. Something that even some adults find annoying. Not to mention that this world has lots of snakes placed in power.

So it's only natural to think that Hiroyuki would surely have a pretty hard time the moment he involves himself even further with this.

But, given such a fact, Hiroyuki can argue that as the most influential person in the entire world during his past life, he's no foreign when it comes to politics. He also dealt with similar annoying things when he was seated in power.

That's why he already knew the solution to this matter. Just like how he dealt with this problem in the past.

However, it's been only 3 and a half years since Hiroyuki started doing this. And even though others may say that his progress within this field is phenomenal, he simply couldn't bring himself to agree with those statements.

True. He already established some 'friendly' connections with other clans and can even influence the decisions of the Gojo Clan's Elders to some degree now. But given his plans, that wouldn't be enough, unfortunately.

With that level of influence, he still has no way of doing all those 'solutions' yet. Hence why he cannot be content with what he has now. He gotta raise himself even more.

He needs more time to develop more Power. More Presence. More Authority... before he can start targeting the snakes drunk in power on the higher ladder.

That way, he can have a much easier time hunting whoever is behind them.

... Again.
