Ring ring.
"That's all for today's class, dismissed."
The familiar dismissal bell rang, and Masamichi Yaga, who never ran overtime, closed his book and left the classroom.
"Hey, hey, hey, everyone, look over here."
As soon as Masamichi Yaga left, Satoru Gojo jumped onto the podium with a spin.
"With that expression, thinking of something fun again, Satoru?"
Suguru Geto, who knew Satoru Gojo best, spoke first.
"As expected of you, Suguru."
Satoru Gojo gave Suguru Geto a thumbs-up and made a cute one-eyed wink.
"Let's go outside."
The next moment, Satoru Gojo jumped onto the window.
"You should use the door, Satoru."
"No way, Suguru, are you my mom?"
"If Suguru admits it, will you call Suguru 'Mom'?"
"Eiji, I think you'd be better suited to adopting Satoru."
"No, I'm not adopting a cat."
"Wait, I'm not a cat!"
Satoru Gojo, who had just jumped out the window, immediately stuck half his body back into the classroom to protest.
Watching the three of them making a ruckus by the window, Shoko Ieiri quietly took Altoria's hand.
"Let's go for afternoon tea, Saber."
Upon hearing the words "afternoon tea," Altoria immediately got up.
"Let's go, Shoko."
Shoko Ieiri smiled.
Indeed, compared to those three annoying guys, Altoria is much cuter.
"Wait, Shoko, don't leave me behind!"
Satoru Gojo leaped in from the window and lunged towards Shoko Ieiri's legs.
Shoko Ieiri skillfully kicked at Infinity.
"No, it's definitely going to be something boring."
Most girls genuinely couldn't understand the fun guys had in their games.
Just as guys rarely guessed what girls truly wanted, they could only try to appease them first.
"Don't abandon me, Shoko~"
Satoru Gojo unleashed his cat-like charm attack.
Shoko Ieiri was hit hard.
"Suguru, control your Satoru."
Shoko Ieiri looked at Suguru Geto speechlessly.
Suguru Geto had his legs crossed on his desk, his face turned towards the outside, whistling, as if he hadn't noticed the situation at all.
"It's rude to interrupt a lady's mealtime, Satoru."
Altoria, standing beside Shoko Ieiri, crossed her arms and spoke with authority.
Saber is reliable after all.
Shoko Ieiri gave Altoria a "well done" look.
"It is indeed a bit impolite..."
Seeing Altoria speak, Satoru Gojo lay on his back on the floor, stroking his chin with his right hand in thought for a moment.
"Yosh."
Satoru Gojo suddenly stood up.
"Let's go out for a big meal after we're done playing later. Saber, eat whatever you want, all expenses are on me, Young Master Gojo."
Satoru Gojo instantly appeared in front of Altoria, pointing his right hand towards the bustling direction of Tokyo.
"Sushi, oden, hot pot, sukiyaki... There's so much delicious food, we can't possibly finish it all."
The next moment, Satoru Gojo pretended to be troubled.
"It's okay, we can finish it."
Shoko Ieiri felt like Altoria's eyes were practically sparkling.
"Hunger is the greatest enemy; you must defeat all delicious food with the conviction of certain victory!"
Altoria stood with her right hand held in front of her, her 1.5-meter height exuding an aura of 2.5 meters.
Ah, it's like this again.
Shoko Ieiri covered her face in exasperation.
I feel like Altoria has completely fallen under his spell.
Shoko Ieiri usually spent a lot of time with Altoria, partly because they were the only two girls in their year.
Another reason was that Shoko Ieiri enjoyed feeding Altoria.
However, that hobby had now been completely monopolized by Satoru Gojo.
Oh well, Saber only acts like this with people she trusts.
Shoko Ieiri recalled the scene from a while ago when Medea had invited Altoria over.
"Is class over already, Saber?"
Medea appeared from around the corner of the hallway, as if by chance.
"Mm," Altoria replied with a simple nod.
"Do you have time next? If you'd like, want to come to my room for a bit? I've prepared tea and some delightful snacks."
Medea clasped her hands together, resting them beside her face, tilting her head in the direction of her hands. A warm glow and beautiful flowers seemed to surround her.
"No."
Snap.
Altoria's refusal was immediate and without hesitation.
Medea froze, taken aback by the unexpected answer.
"Wh-why, Saber? Don't you usually enjoy having snacks with friends? Why..."
"My intuition tells me you have ill intentions."
Altoria's words made Medea panic internally.
Did she find out? My plan to have Saber first this, then that, and finally...
"Let's go, Shoko. We'll have afternoon tea in your room."
"Okay."
Shoko Ieiri readily agreed, casting a pitying glance at Medea before they returned to the dorms for a pleasant tea time.
The memory ended.
The group soon arrived outside the classroom.
They were holding various small props requested by Satoru Gojo.
Shoko Ieiri and Suguru Geto held pencils and erasers, while Altoria carried a ruler.
Eiji, saying he'd be back later, quietly went to where Shoko Ieiri hid her alcohol.
Remembering what Satoru Gojo was planning, Eiji decided to play a prank on him.
Eiji then took out a box of beer, poured it into a bucket, and stored the bucket in his shadow.
"Later, I'll have Satoru Gojo buy you another box."
Eiji clasped his hands together, offering a virtual apology to Shoko Ieiri.
Then, Eiji slipped into the shadow.
"Let's begin."
As Satoru Gojo's voice fell, the stationery in the hands of the three was thrown towards him.
The eraser hit Satoru Gojo's forehead, while the pencil and ruler were stopped mid-air by the Infinity technique.
Splash.
Eiji emerged from Satoru Gojo's shadow and unhesitatingly poured the water towards Satoru Gojo's head.
Anything is fine, Satoru Gojo had said.
"Too bad."
As the water neared Satoru Gojo's head, it scattered outwards.
It was like pouring water onto an umbrella.
"It's no use."
Satoru Gojo leaned back, sticking his tongue out at Eiji.
Is Infinity automatically choosing targets for the technique?
Suguru Geto was the first to voice his discovery.
"That's right."
Satoru Gojo's lips curled into a proud smile.
"The old Infinity was a manual transmission; I've changed it to automatic."
Gojo took the pencil and ruler floating in mid-air and spun them in his hands.
"The current Infinity doesn't just judge the strength of cursed energy like before. It now automatically assesses the danger level of an object based on information like its speed, mass, and shape."
"Though it can't automatically filter out toxins yet, that's too much trouble."
"I can now operate Infinity with minimal consumption for near-infinite durations."
"If you do that, you'll burn your own brain out,"
Medical student Shoko Ieiri said with concern.
"It's fine, I'll keep Reverse Cursed Technique active to repair my brain. I'll always have a fresh brain supply."
Gojo spun his right hand around his head a few times.
Fresh brain, suddenly I want to stew Brain.
Hearing Gojo's words, Eiji thought to himself.
"I can activate the Cursed Technique without hand seals now, and the free switching between Blue and Red, as well as simultaneous activation of multiple techniques, is also complete."
As Gojo spun the pen, blue and red lights flickered alternately on his hands.
"Next up are Domain Expansion and long-distance teleportation."
Forward and Reverse Cursed Technique, huh?
Eiji propped his chin in his hand, lost in thought as he watched Gojo, who flickered between blue and red.
