Chapter 252 - Chapter 252 Another Adult Believes in Light

"I wonder if Mr. Yaga has remembered anything."

Inside Jujutsu Headquarters, a man in a suit smiled as he poured Yaga Masamichi a cup of tea.

"It's still the same thing. Panda is a suddenly mutated Cursed Corpse. There's no manufacturing method as you claim."

Yaga Masamichi didn't pick up the teacup; he just silently watched the man.

These past few days, Yaga Masamichi had maintained a highly vigilant mental state.

He also minimized his intake of food and drink to avoid falling victim to strange methods that might lead to the leakage of Panda's secret.

This also caused Yaga Masamichi's figure to become slightly thinner.

"Is that so? Then I won't disturb Mr. Yaga. Please enjoy your meal."

After speaking, the man left the breakfast, bowed slightly, and then exited the room.

"How did it go?"

A woman also dressed in a suit walked up to him.

"He still won't say anything."

The woman said helplessly.

The man's name was Yamada Sou, and the woman's name was Kamo Haruna.

Both were interrogators for Jujutsu Headquarters.

Yamada Sou could perceive the emotions of those around him through his Cursed Technique, thereby judging whether the other party was lying.

Kamo Haruna, on the other hand, could connect with others using her blood, thus perceiving their thoughts.

Both of their interrogation methods were relatively gentle.

"What about your side? Did you manage to sense his thoughts?"

Yamada Sou asked.

"No, he ate too little. My blood couldn't accumulate enough to activate the Cursed Technique. How can such a large person only eat half a bowl of ramen per meal?"

Kamo Haruna was helpless.

Blood doesn't taste good, let alone blood with a Cursed Technique and mixed with Cursed Energy.

So, to avoid Yaga Masamichi noticing, they only added small amounts to tea, meals, and snacks.

Then, they relied on the Cursed Technique to maintain the blood's activity.

However, Yaga Masamichi not only drank only plain water but also ate less than a dieting girl for his three meals.

What could she do?

"Could it really be as he said, that the Cursed Corpse just mutated suddenly?"

Kamo Haruna said helplessly.

"Probably not. If it really was just a sudden mutation that couldn't be replicated, Yaga Masamichi would definitely agree to let the people from Jujutsu Headquarters bring the Cursed Corpse for inspection, instead of leaving it with Shoko Ieiri."

No one dared to easily offend Shoko Ieiri.

Not to mention whether anyone in your Family needed Shoko Ieiri's Reverse Cursed Technique.

Over the years, Shoko Ieiri had saved a large number of Jujutsu Sorcerers.

Once Shoko Ieiri had an idea, even The Big Three Families would find it very troublesome.

Moreover, many things cannot be successfully replicated just by having a sample.

Therefore, Jujutsu Headquarters ultimately focused on Yaga Masamichi.

"Damn it, I really wish those perverts would come. If this continues, we'll be punished by our Family again."

Kamo Haruna said through gritted teeth.

The Big Three Families did not treat their subordinates as people.

"You know that's impossible. Sigh."

It wasn't that they didn't want to use more aggressive interrogation methods.

When it came to methods, Jujutsu Headquarters even had more than Curse Users.

But they couldn't, or rather, they didn't dare.

Not to mention Yaga Masamichi's identity as a principal.

Just his students alone could spell the end for Jujutsu Headquarters.

Out of the 5 Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerers, 4 were Yaga Masamichi's students. (The fifth was Choso)

There were also several Special Grade imaginary heroic spirits who obeyed his students.

Excluding the Special Grades, many Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerers had also received his guidance.

For example, Kento Nanami, Mei Mei, and Kusakabe Atsuya.

Especially Kusakabe Atsuya; it was said that he had fought to a draw with the legendary Sasaki Kojiro in a public duel.

Therefore, in the past, everyone only speculated, but now the title of the strongest Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer was firmly placed on Kusakabe Atsuya's head.

Distressed Kusakabe Atsuya.jpg

There was once an opportunity before him, but he didn't cherish it.

If the heavens could give Kusakabe Atsuya another chance, he would shout out those three words.

I surrender!

Of course, this was just Kusakabe Atsuya's inner thought; if it really happened again, he would still go for it.

After all, Ashiya Ayaka, the head of Shinkage-ryu, had shown him kindness.

It's just that next time, he didn't know if he would be so lucky to draw again.

In short, Yaga Masamichi truly had students everywhere.

Even if you removed his Special Grade students.

The remaining ones, if truly assembled, could contend with one of The Big Three Families.

Adding those few Special Grades, Jujutsu Headquarters wouldn't even dare to imagine.

Especially Eichi.

Gojo Satoru, though he went too far, ultimately didn't lay a hand.

Eichi, however, truly did act.

The flowers in the Zenin Clan backyard grew exceptionally vibrant this year.

Several Zenin Clan members holding high positions in Jujutsu Headquarters had contributed to this.

It was also because of this that they all had concerns.

This concern ultimately became the final order for Yamada Sou and Kamo Haruna.

"Use every means possible to pry open Yaga Masamichi's mouth, but do not harm him."

When they heard the first half of the sentence, Yamada Sou and Kamo Haruna were full of confidence.

But the second half directly shocked them out of the original picture.

If this scene were animated, it would be two black-and-white figures standing in a colorful room.

At this moment, they really wanted to ask if the phrases "use every means" and "do not harm" should appear in the same sentence.

Just as they were still distressed, a violent tremor came from the ground beneath their feet.

"Earthquake?"

"The TV didn't report it!"

The two immediately ran out to an open area outside the house in a panic.

"Hey, what is that?!"

To the astonished gazes of several people, a colossal creature nearly a hundred meters tall appeared in the mountains outside Jujutsu Headquarters.

The monster had eight ferocious heads and eight long tails.

It was currently roaring and advancing towards Jujutsu Headquarters.

"Yamada-kun, is that the monster you were talking about? Where's Ultraman?"

Kamo Haruna stared dumbfounded at the monster outside that was causing the earthquake.

At this moment, the only thing Kamo Haruna could think of was the Ultraman stories Yamada Sou usually told her.

She guessed that only in Ultraman would there be such a massive and terrifying monster.

Her intuition told her it was a Cursed Spirit.

But her past life experience told her that Cursed Spirits couldn't be that big.

The largest Cursed Spirit she had ever seen was only twenty meters tall.

That was already a quasi-Special Grade Cursed Spirit.

But in front of Yamata no Orochi, it probably wouldn't even be enough for one of Yamata no Orochi's snake heads to eat.

"I don't know."

Yamada Sou was also a bit confused.

He rarely went on missions, and even when he did, he would look after the young masters and Young Misses of some Jujutsu Sorcerer Families.

However, the appearance of this monster made him believe once again that light truly existed.

Otherwise, how could that monster outside be explained?

"Honestly, what troublesome students."

Yaga Masamichi's voice came from behind the two.

His tone contained both annoyance and relief.
