Jujutsu Kaisen: 'Cursed Potential' [Male Reader X Jujutsu Kaisen Harem]

Chapter 18 - 'Walk In The Park'

[The chapter you've all been waiting for is finally here, and with it...20k words to make the wait worth it.]

[Whoa! What's this? Back before a month? Oh, my! This must be a special occasion! Well, I mean, JJK is being updated. So that's always something to be excited for, right? Well, I hope so, because I was almost going to PURPOSELY delay this chapter for TWO MONTHS, because someone in the comments didn't believe me when I said I'd be back before a month. WELL LOOK AT ME NOW MISTER WATTPADER!! I'm back! And with it, we finally--FINALLY--get to the satisfying moment we've all been waiting for! WHY DOES GOJO CALL THE READER BABU?!?!?! Nah...Jk. That's for another chapter. But that's not to say stuff doesn't go down in this chapter. Especially the fight we've been building up to since the very first chapter~~]

[3rd Person POV]

--Two Weeks Ago--

Up and down. That's the way life seemed to be for everyone, no matter who you were, we all went through those periods. Up and down. Up and down. But for some, it was more literal. Such could be said if you were to look through the eyes of (Y/n) (L/n); the young Jujutsu Sorcerer currently finding his gaze focused on the bright blue sky above him.  It was as he did so that he couldn't help but notice how it felt as if he got just a little bit closer toward the void above him every few seconds. 

It's like he was lifted into the air, as if he were about to receive an answer he had longed for. But as was the case with most situations like that, as soon as he was to reach that answer, it was taken away from him. This time around it was gravity who played that part. For as (Y/n) went up, he'd eventually be forced back down. Nevertheless, even though (Y/n) knew he would never probably reach the sky above him, he continued to allow the bouncing affect to take control of his body, all the whilst he laid on his back and kept a blank expression on his face. 

Such a look remained for a short while, all before he finally decided to shift his gaze to the side. In doing so, the smiling face of his cousin, Gojo Satoru could be seen standing not too far away. The smiling exterior continued to resonate through the air as the anointed one watched on as (Y/n)'s laidback posture repeatedly bounced up and down on a trampoline. An odd piece of equipment for sorcerers; even odder due to the fact that the aforementioned trampoline was located within the forest area of Tokyo's Jujutsu High School. 

(Y/n): "Hey, Gojo?"

Gojo: "Yes, Babu?"

(Y/n): "Can you explain to me again why I'm bouncing on a trampoline at school? I mean, not that I'm complaining or anything. It beats class. But I thought you said we were ditching those to train for the Exchange event in two weeks?"

Gojo: "Oh, but we are training, Babu! Can't you tell?"

(Y/n): "Um...No?"

Not that that was really out of the normal for someone training with Gojo. After all, he often chose unique ways for people to improve. Though never once did it involve a trampoline. Nevertheless, (Y/n)'s confusion didn't stop Gojo from approaching further towards the location of his cousin, his smile only continuing to strengthen as (Y/n)'s body kept on bouncing.

(Y/n): "...So why am I on a trampoline?"

Gojo: "Special training, of course!"

(Y/n): "Yeah, I get that! But how is this 'special' in any way?"

Gojo: "My. My. Babu! Don't be like that! I thought you out of everyone would know not to judge someone's--or somethings--skills based off appearance ~"

(Y/n): [Continues Bouncing] "Okay. Okay. Touche. So...What does this help with?"
