The group came toward an isolated area, built for trainings like the one which would occur. Amaya was nervous. Though she was confident in her strength, she feared she could fail getting Sukuna's attention. This was the only solution she saw in order to obtain the right to talk to him. Whatever the risks were, she did'nt want to go back.
The three teenagers stood on their guard, while their teacher calmly sat on the ground. This was the occasion to define what she was capable of, to be able to control her if needed.
- Well, start fighting ! he yelled after a few seconds.
Nobara instantly took some needles out of her sleeve and threw them at her opponent. The other jumped on the side, avoiding them all.
Megumi summoned two wolfs which ran towards the curse. The boy's attacks lacked precision, and could only cause the woman to walk backwards.
She tried to escape the animals, which did'nt cause her much trouble. She only dodged them, trying to avoid getting wounded.
Yuji, still as determined as before, took advantage of this by attacking her from behind her back, charging his energy into his fists.
Facing few difficulties, Amaya thought it wasn't worth attacking the others, and just dodged everything, fearing to hurt the kids, and losing her only chance to meet Sukuna again.
Gojo seemed bored, looking at this annoying fight made him want to sleep. Nothing to spectacular happened, and even with a strong curse opposing them, his students weren't forced to fight back powerful hits.
- She doesn't even try fighting ! Megumi shouted to the others.
- Is she making fun of us ? Yuji answered in a frustrated tone.
The three students stepped back, trying to find an issue. Amaya just stood where she was, not trying to follow them.
- Why isn't she fighting ? the pink-haired guy wondered. She lets us attack her without trying to hurt us, and she leaves us time to think ! In a real mission, things couldn't go so easily.
Megumi waited a few seconds, trying to understand her behaviour, slowly beginning to find an explanation.
- I believe she only tries to draw Sukuna's attention, he announced. With her moves being controlled like this, she fears hurting us too much and being killed before getting a chance to fulfill her goal. Thus, she doesn't try anything and stays calm, allowing us to try and catch her, as if it were a game.
Nobara nodded.
- It isn't useful for us then, does she realise it ? she said. She could lose all interest for us...
Once agained, Sukuna appeared on Yuji's cheek.
- I told her to impress me, and she's clearly failing, he said in a disappointed voice. Force her to fight, so that she shows me what she's capable of.
Yuji turned his head towards the other curse, whose attention was drawn by Sukuna's presence. Seeing this, the demon chuckled.
- You're not going to prove anything like this, you know ? he said in a mocking tone. I almost found you more efficient when you did nothing.
Gojo sighed. However, Amaya's behaviour changed. Without giving any more comments, Sukuna began looking at the fighters again.
The woman stayed there, her wide eyes hiding a tough reflexion. Sukuna exposed weaknesses in her ideas. She wanted an easy win, without having to hurt anyone, but she just proved she wasn't motivated enough. She slightly sighed, her strategy changing in her mind.
Without letting anyone know, she made a leap towards Yuji. The boy, schocked by her speed, dodged her and tried to make her fall, but she managed to keep her balance. She tried again and again, letting her speed increase and her moves become more piercing. The three students, surprised by such a change, began fearing her victory. A smile appeared on her face. Even if it was a training, both sides wanted to win, for different reasons. Could exorcists win in a real fight if they failed against her ?
Amaya continued hitting the others, especially Yuji, who held Sukuna inside of him. After a few minutes, the students felt so paralysed they fell against the fresh grass. She then kept her on the ground, as pressure seemed to increase against them. The kids recognised she won.
In a second, she started acting calm again, and helped them get up. Sukuna failed to hold back a laugh.
- You manipulate your curse energy in order to seem terrifiying, and then you make your own body stronger by using your power, and you manipulate pressure around others, to make them fall while your body's able to adapt to it, right ? Sukuna said, analysing her fight.
- You're completely right, dear ! she said, smiling.
Satisfied, the curse living in Yuji's body looked around him. Gojo got up and approached them, a proud smile on his lips.
- Well, I guess I did the right thing letting you train together ! he declared. Now, we know our ally's power, and you saw a new strategy. Don't worry, not having won this time won't impact you.
The group sighed and lied down on the ground, Amaya followed them, observing the one she came to see. Sukuna, slightly annoyed, tried to avoid talking for a few seconds ; but he realised it was better if he dared express his thoughts.
- You're quite good, even if you did'nt show all you were capable of ! he declared. It was quite fun looking at. One day, you could even fight against me ! Now, I give you the permission to talk to me, but only if I'm in a good mood.
A smile made her face brighter, she felt proud of drawing his attention to her, as she sat near her new friends.
