3rd Person POV:

Shiori walked inside Ratatoskr's ship with Yuta before he just started to talk.

Yuta: Shiori, you're better than most people when it comes to close combat, I'll even say that your talent is comparable to Darren and Kurayami's... but now you have to learn. How to control cursed energy. And you need to learn a little bit of Jujutsu.

Shiori smiled at Yuta which made him turn around.

Yuta: What's up?

Shiori: It's just that... if I'm going to learn, I'm glad it's from you, Yuta-Sensei. After Yuji and Maki died, I could tell that Darren was depressed. I'm weak and I can't help anyone, I even almost got Darren killed. I can't see him yet... not the way I am now...

Shiori gripped her fist before staring at Yuta with pure determination in my eyes.

Shiori: I want to become strong. Please teach me how to become the strongest! I heard from Yuji that you were the second-strongest sorcerer before Gojo died.

Yuta just smiled a bit before nodding his head.

Yuta: You've got good eyes. Please pay attention to me.

Yuta released some cursed energy which destroyed a can before using his technique to crush a can.

Shiori: WOAH!

Yuta: The can that was destroyed was using cursed energy and the can that was crushed was with a cursed technique.

Shiori: Right, I don't get it.

Yuta: Well, take it this way. Think of Cursed Energy as electricity and Cursed Technique as appliances. It's difficult to use electricity by itself, right? So you use electricity to power any appliances. This way, you can gain a lot of uses for it. I only hit the cans with cursed energy. As for the other can. I used cursed energy to flow into a technique to activate it. Then I used the cursed technique to twist the can.

Shiori brightened up before holding up a finger.

Shiori: Does that mean... I'm gonna learn a badass technique?!

Yuta: Nope, the current you is unable to use Jujutsu, Shiori. The only reason why you see Darren and Kurayami being so strong right now is because they were born with talent. So a Jujutsu Sorcerer's skill is about 80% innate talent.

Shiori just lay down on the floor disappointed while Yuta just stared at her with concern.

Yuta: You okay?

Shiori: I just thought that I would be able to do the things that Kurayami and Darren do...

Yuta: (You're unable to use any now, but in due time, your body will learn Sukuna's cursed technique!)

Yuta just stared at Shuiori before helping her up from the floor.

Yuta: Forget about that. For now, let's just focus on your strengths, we'll apply cursed energy to your physical attacks! I'd say that due to my physique, instead of some half-assed cursed technique. I'm more aware of savage attacks. Like I said before,e you're crazy in physical fights.

Shiori: HOLD ON! I ALREADY KNOW HOW TO DO THAT! That time... I kinda got it...

Yuta held out his hand and pointed at his palm.
