Eriri unconsciously lifted her small head and looked up, but unexpectedly saw a young, handsome face.
"Yera! This... how could this guy be here?"
Eriri froze like she was hit by a petrifying spell. Her small body instantly stiffened, so much so that the twin tails behind her were about to jump out.
As a renowned figure in the entire school, Eriri, the ace of the art club, naturally had heard of Yera.
However, the two of them had never interacted in the school.
In the Showa Academy filled with daughters of prominent families, Eriri had always disguised herself well.
Her mixed-race beauty and affluent background made her a very popular girl in the school.
But she never expected this popular guy, Yera, to appear at the anime convention!
"Well, as expected of Eriri 柏木 teacher, how did you come up with this leg-over-shoulder pose?"
What made Eriri even more embarrassed was...
After buying the doujinshi, this guy didn't rush to leave. Instead, he started flipping through the book right there, commenting on it in front of her.
"Wow, there's no milk that big in real life, huh?"
"Tsk tsk, the Elf Queen's pose is so cheesy."
"Let me take a look too!"
Next to them, Iwase 琴子, attracted by Yera's serious comments, also snatched the book to join in.
"Wow, I love this pose, the art style is amazing! As expected, the pure love ending is the orthodox one."
"The goblin and the Elf Queen finally lived happily ever after, they lived happily ever after and had 124 children."
The two squeezed together, seriously commenting on the content of the doujinshi.
It eased the tension in Eriri's heart, who was originally very nervous.
"To think that this Yera is actually a connoisseur! These poses are the result of my painstakingly thought-out strokes."
It was as if a talented horse had been recognized by a discerning eye.
The wonderful feeling of having her work appreciated by a connoisseur made the blonde girl smile with relief, and her whole body floated.
After hesitating for a while.
She couldn't help but remind him softly, "Don't forget to look at the end, the Elf Queen was also branded with an O mark."
"Hmm, 柏木 teacher, your voice sounds familiar, have we met before?"
Putting down the book.
Yera looked at the blonde girl who had instantly panicked, with a playful smile in his eyes.
"N-no, you must be mistaken!"
Eriri nervously waved her small hand, using her golden hair to shield her face, afraid of being exposed.
"Sir, you must have mistaken me for someone else."
It's over.
If he finds out, it's all over!
I absolutely cannot let this guy know that I, the student at Showa Academy, am a doujinshi artist!
The already flustered girl accidentally bumped into the edge of the chair behind her, and without realizing it, she tumbled to the ground.
"柏木 teacher, your glasses... uh?"
Yera picked up Eriri's glasses that had fallen to the ground, ready to end the fun of teasing this golden retriever.
The next instant, the corner of his eye caught sight of an unexpected figure.
The newcomer was tall, with slanting eyes and long eyebrows, wearing a simple and old-fashioned kasaya that was out of place in the atmosphere of the event.
There was always a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
Judging from his appearance alone, he seemed to be a very good-natured person.
However, Yera, who recognized this person's true identity, instantly narrowed his eyes.
"Sukuna Jujutsu, how could he be here?"
This person, as the antagonist of the early stage of "Jujutsu Kaisen", was a cursed sorcerer who killed over a hundred people and was banished by Jujutsu High.
One of the four Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerers currently known in the Jujutsu world.
Sukuna Jujutsu possesses a technique, "Cursed Spirit Manipulation", which can absorb and freely manipulate subjugated cursed spirits.
Even Special Grade Cursed Spirits are no match for him, and there is no limit to the number he can control.
If you meet him for the first time, seeing his kind face and the kasaya he wears... you might think he is a kind-hearted Buddhist.
But Yera had a clear vision in his heart.
Since this person has already put on this kasaya, it means he has mastered the Star Plasma Vessel and has completely gone rogue.
After going rogue, Sukuna Jujutsu believes that all ordinary humans are monkeys and should be completely exterminated.
To achieve his so-called "Jujutsu Sorcerers' Paradise", he would even kill his own parents.
After falling completely into the path of evil, he even committed outrageous acts like the "Hundred Demons Night Walk".
Such an evil person who has no regard for human life.
Suddenly appearing in a crowded anime convention.
Immediately put Yera on high alert.
"Yera-kun, nice to meet you, my name is Sukuna Jujutsu."
Sukuna Jujutsu had a gentle smile on his face, amiably introducing himself to the boy.
"Though you might not know me, I know you well."
"To be honest, I've been watching you for a while. You possess a power different from cursed energy, such great potential, you should be working with me to achieve a greater goal."
"Was that you, the one hiding in the clouds that day?"
Looking at Sukuna Jujutsu, who was suddenly excited and had his arms outstretched, Yera frowned slightly, remembering the warning from his intuition that day at the Kannon Shrine.
"Haha, I was presumptuous that day, I apologize."
The man in the kasaya seemed genuinely apologetic.
He bowed politely to him in apology.
"Yera-kun, you should know, people with our kind of power can easily do things that normal people can't."
In the midst of this bustling anime convention, Sukuna Jujutsu continued to talk.
"But it's people like us, who have been blessed by heaven, who have to run around for these so-called ordinary people. "
"Clearly, the natural world has always upheld the law of the jungle, so why are they able to take the world's most precious resources? Even more, people like us, we have to protect those who are just sitting and eating, when they can't even withstand one of my punches!!"
He took off his mask of kindness.
The rogue Sukuna Jujutsu finally revealed his true form.
Crazy, reckless, evil, with the purest malice towards humans at the core of his being.
"So, you hate ordinary people?" Yera asked back.
"Of course." Sukuna Jujutsu nodded without hesitation, "I think they're nothing but a bunch of useless monkeys."
"Clearly, they're the root cause of all this trouble, so why should those of us who are strong clean up after them in the end... some people even end up sacrificing their lives for this... I really despise those arrogant monkeys."
