"Quickly everyone, move!"

Servants moved back and forth, carrying an array of items for the upcoming event. Everything must be perfect. A single mistake could result in disaster, especially considering the attendants consist of the most powerful men in the whole country. Stories were always passed down of servants dying due to their negligence. Even staring at a guest for too long can result in someone losing their head. Which is why the mansion needed more help than ever before.

Once a year; higher-ups, powerful sorcerers, clan leaders, and their heirs all gather to discuss the current outlook of the Jujutsu community. Although, most of the time, they all end up partying. Yes, it is called a "meeting", but the only real business done is clan members establishing arranged marriages. Other than that, the attendants mostly catch up with old friends or associates.

The servants must always be cautious during this event, most likely more than half of the attendants will end up drunk by the end. All of them possess the power to kill a man with a single strike. Luckily, the main coordinator was allowed to temporarily hire more servants from different clans.

This is also the reason why Kiyori was able to easily sneak in.

She just wore a servant's outfit and walked right in, no one was giving her a second glance. Gojo handed her the uniform earlier and it fitted like a glove, she didn't know how Gojo already knew her size nor did she ask. But honestly, Kiyori didn't think this would work, when Gojo explained the plan, Kiyori was already thinking of what to say when she got caught. But it looks like it wasn't needed. Instead, she's being berated for doing a poor job.

"Watch where you're going! You almost knocked me over!" A woman yelled.

"I'm sorry." Kiyori apologized plainly. She isn't used to this type of work. Before her old office job, Kiyori would only work around her mother's small garden or her neighbor's fields. So she isn't used to balancing a tray of expensive alcohol. Her thoughts would often drift causing her to not pay attention to what was ahead of her and almost made her trip serval times. Luckily, others managed to snap her out of her daydream before any real damage could be done. But unfortunately for Kiyori, she couldn't avoid the scolding.

"Are you blind or something?! You could've broken all those glasses!"

"No, I have perfect vision... I think." Now that she thinks about it, Kiyori hasn't visited the ophthalmologist in a while, she should schedule an appointment soon.

The same woman just went on a tirade, scolding her for every single mistake she's made in the short moment since they've met. From her posture to her tone, and even her hair. But Kiyori wasn't really paying attention, considering this woman isn't the first person who's been scolding her. This is the fifth time, and from what Kiyori understood, none of them were the people in charge. She overheard the main coordinators are all extremely busy and none of them has the time to properly reprimand any of the servants. Apparently, there were a few surprise guests who were high profile, and this caused many to panic.

"Can I go now? I need to deliver these." She gestures to the tray of drinks.

The woman huffed, but she reluctantly let Kiyori go. She had this irritated look on her face as she watched Kiyori walk away. Kiyori pauses, she turns back to the woman, "where am I supposed to deliver these?"

The woman looked at her in disbelief, if wasn't for the fact she was also busy with her own duties then she would've scolded Kiyori once again. Instead, the woman was planning to report her to their superior, "which clan did you come from?" she asked as she crossed her arms.

"Uhh... the Gojo clan," she shrugged. Kiyori learned this morning that Gojo Satoru is part of a powerful magic clan, it does explain a few things about him. He told her whenever she's caught just tell them she's from the Gojo clan and they'll let her go free, so far it worked every single time. Must be great coming from a rich and famous family.
