Here, for you Yuki stans.

Yuki or Shoko.

I've narrowed it down.

Yuki Tsukumo (Start of Goodwill)

Hmm, they don't look too bad.

As the only current special-grade sorcerer, I'm expected to look over any of the newer generations to see if they will become great sorcerers.

While there are a few resourceful people, they wouldn't become special grades. Although no one caught my eye on the Kyoto side, Tokyo had three interesting individuals.

At first, I saw a kid who could manipulate cursed spirits, which is a devastating technique, especially given the increased strength of cursed spirits these past fifteen years.

Then, there was the Six Eyes Limitless Gojo kid who was stretching his arms and yawning while two students tried to hit him.

Finally, there was Naohiro, who truly caught my eye.

Suguru Geto's technique was interesting; the Gojo kid was interesting because of his birth-given gifts, but something was off with Naohiro.

He didn't seem remarkable if you were to seem him on paper, but when taking a real look at him, you can tell why he is one of the people who can already be considered for special grade.

Calling his cursed energy reserves insane would be an understatement. I don't think there has been anyone in the history of Jujutsu has had as much as he does.

The Limitless and Six Eyes give their wielders nigh-unlimited cursed energy due to their properties, but Naohiro has nigh-infinite cursed energy.

Most people probably couldn't tell, but he is at a different level than the Gojo kid, even with his, frankly, overpowered techniques.

Then there are the oddities with his cursed technique. Like I said, on paper, it doesn't sound interesting at all: evolving based on cursed energy, but it has clearly brought him very far.

Anyway, Gojo and Naohiro will become special grades, with Suguru having a fifty-fifty chance. It depends on how he utilizes his cursed technique.

Now that I have my assessment done, I guess I can wait until Tokyo wins.

The reason I'm here right now is to judge the new generation of sorcerers.

...

...

That and I didn't want to go on a week-long mission.

I'd rather watch children fight each other than go through the trouble of missions.

Why bother flying around the country when you can chill out and make generic comments that people think have greater meaning?

I'm getting paid for this too!

Sometimes, I wonder if it was worth it to become a special grade.

It's too much work, but it comes with its perks.

...

Hmm?

My focus gets shifted to the girl with white hair as she shoots a spear right to Naohiro's face.

If I'm correct, that must be the first year Nishida. However, I do note something interesting.

That was a spear meant to kill. Those aren't the skills and attitude of a normal first-year.

If she had been a prominent figure beforehand, like Naohiro or Satoru, I wouldn't have minded too much, but there is very little known about her.

I shift in my seat.

Originally, I thought none of the Kyoto students would show promise, but there is something off about Nishida. It's not off like Naohiro, but off as in an unknown.

Call it a gut feeling, but I don't like her.

...

Naohiro spoke. "[Domain Expansion: Cycle of Saṃsāra]."

My eyes widened, and a massive smile appeared on my face.

So, Naohiro was able to learn a domain expansion, which 99% of sorcerers won't accomplish in their lifetime.

Sadly, I can't see what is going on in the domain expansion since the monitor doesn't cover the inside of them.

Domains make me jumpy because if you have eyes off of you, you can do things without others knowing, and with how Nishida attacked Naohiro, I'm worried for her sake.

A minute or two later, someone that I recognize runs over to the barrier and smashes into it with famous red nunchucks. My eyes widen in shock.

...

Toji Zenin.

...

Oh shit!

I don't know if I can make it in time!

If he's here, that means he's here to kill someone.

Jumping out of the monitoring building, I make a beeline towards the forest.

There are a few calls for me, but I ignore them.

People are going to be killed if I don't step in!

Damnit, why do they have the monitoring area so far away from the event!?

Only someone at the special grade level can take on, let alone be alive after encountering Toji Zenin.

He is a superhuman in every sense and is very damn good at his job.

Running for another few minutes, I see a sad sight.

Damnit, I'm late!

I take a giant leap before smashing into the ground, getting there before Toji can take out another one of the kids.

Trying to ease his nerves, I say my catchphrase. "Nice to meet you, Naohiro Zenin; now I get the chance to ask...what is your type?~ *chu*."

While I was able to get in the way of him before he got his hands on Naohiro, Toji was able to get away.

Then I hear Naohiro speak. "Yuki, can you bring Satoru to Shoko? She is a classmate who is great at outputting reverse cursed technique. He's alive, albeit barely. I'm going to go after Toji."

Turning my head around, I get ready to tell him off since he's going to get himself killed, but he starts running!

The little shit! "Hey, I'm not some transport service! Get your ass back here!"

Damnit!

I grab the kid, dump him on my shoulder, and run towards the entrance where he said his friend is.

Who the hell does he think he is!? I've got no clue how this kid is alive, but his cursed energy is constantly flowing as if he is awake.

After a little more running, I make it to the entrance where I see a girl looking at the sky with a cigarette in her mouth.

No time to question! "Reverse cursed technique output girl! Little help here!"

She snaps out of whatever daze she was in and immediately ran over towards Satoru to perform reverse cursed technique.

However, something strange happened...

Satoru sat up!?

I then noticed that his head, neck, and stomach were all healed as well!

With a calm and detached look on his face he asks me. "Hey...where did the old dude go?"

*BONK*

I have a baffled look on my face before unconsciously bonking him on the head. "Dumbass, you nearly died!"

He ignores it and stands up. "Where?"

I sigh. "*Sigh* are you kids just looking to die!? Fine, he went west! I'm going with you so you don't die."

He claps his hands and vanishes.

Shoko speaks up. "Since when can he do that?"

I sigh, shrug my shoulders, and run after the idiots.
