Shinjuku, Tokyo
Ryota POV
The time went by faster than I imagined that it would. As soon as I knew it, Christmas Eve was upon us.I remember when I was younger, I'd be waiting for the morning to receive presents as a kid. But now that I'm older, I still receive those. However, I have a responsibility as a jujutsu sorcerer. So things are exceptionally different now.
And on this day, I'll be fighting off likely around a thousand cursed spirits or so.
The one thing that sucks is that Kinji and Kira-chan are in Kyoto for this. I wish I could be with them.
Oh well though. Right?
I'm just glad I got a chance to speak to my first years beforehand.
Flashback
3rd Person POV
Yuta: Huh? You're going to be in Shinjuku?Ryota turned around to see Maki, Panda, Toge and Yuta standing before him.
Ryota: Yeah, I am. Personally, I'd like to stay here, but orders are orders. And Old Man Yaga wants me to be in Shinjuku for that Night Parade of a Hundred Demons Geto is pulling for his war.
There was a small and quiet silence between all four people and the cursed corpse. However, it was then a few seconds later had passed. And it was Maki who turned around and spoke up.
Maki: Okay then. Good luck Hinokami.
Panda: Yeah, good luck!
Toge: Salmon.
Yuta: Eh?!
Yuta turned to Panda, Maki and Toge as the three of them turned around and began to leave.
Yuta: You're just going to leave like that?!
Maki: Why are you worked up about this?
Panda: Don't worry about Hinokami, Yuta. He's a Grade 1 Sorcerer. He's practically on par with actual leaders of the jujutsu society!
Maki: Plus, he's an asshole. So why should we care about what he says?
Toge: Salmon Roe.
Yuta: But still! He's still a senior of ours and a fellow student! Shouldn't we still try to show some care for him?!
Ryota's eyes were widened with confusion in them. One of his eyebrows was raised as if he didn't know how to react.
However, after a few seconds, Ryota closed his eyes and started to laugh. This caught the attention of the first years.
And after a few seconds of laughing, Ryota regained his composure and sighed.
Ryota: You're a funny guy Yuta. I appreciate your concern.
Everyone had their focus on Ryota.
Ryota: I believe Geto has an ulterior motive to this whole war. One that he's definitely gonna lose for sure. But since you're all here, I have this one favor, if we don't ever meet again.
Ryota raised his arm out with a smile on his face.
