Chapter 7 - CHAPTER 6 INTERACTION

While Yuji grinned at the people gathering around him, he was relieved to know that they had come to meet him.

He began to believe that if he sacrificed himself to protect everyone, he would not be sorry.

Yuji laughs as the curse snuggles closer to him, inhaling his fragrance. Yuji, on the other hand, brushes the curse hair gently. Yuji understands that he cannot discuss his concerns, burdens, and experiences; that way is better despite the best not to tell anyone what occurred because no one can help.

The curse is inside him and will remain there indefinitely. Despite the fact that the curse provided him with several choices for keeping him alive and swallowing the last finger that he needed to seek.

However, for some reason, the curse's offer appears plausible. He likes it when Sukana does dirty things to him. What kind of insane thinking is that?

He should have cursed Sukuna, snapped, and fought back, but even doing that is insufficient to overcome that powerful curse

"Sensei, what does sukuna mean by you and him making a binding vow?" Yuji asks the tall guy who is struggling with one of his student grips.

Gojo stood up and began speaking, "Yuji.." he whispered, "I'm sorry if I couldn't let you know and you have been bedridden for two days, we were planning to keep it a secret from you.."

"I didn't expect the king of curses to want you to know this," Gojo stated, shifting his focus to Sukuna, who only scoffs at the tall person.

"My vessel has a right to know, six eyes," the curse said, gripping itadori's chin and turning it to face him.

"What is the point of this?" Maki Zenin said, making the entire room appear perplexed by what was unfolding in front of them.

Kugisaki released go of Megumi, while Megumi approached the visitor and urged Nobara to speak out, quickly describing to them what Gojo had said to make the throng understand what was going on.

"How can you put your trust in the king of curses word, Gojo?" Maki rolled her eyes."

"Salmon!" Inumaki concurred.

"Hmm, Itadori, do you agree on this?" Kugisaki inquired, and Yuji smiled. Megumi, on the other hand, went up to Yuji.

"Itadori.." mumbled Megumi, drawing Yuji's attention to him.

.

"Don't worry, fushigurou; I haven't made up my mind yet. I didn't agree on it..." he hesitated.

"Yet," Yuji says, leading Megumi to pause on what he was about to say. Megumi grasped and squeezed his hand, unable to help his friend.

"What are the terms gojo- sensei?" Okkotsu yuta, ask Gojo

"Giving the last finger, not causing havoc for a specific period, yuji will stay alive," Gojo remarked, extending three fingers and demonstrating to them.

"Impossible," Maki said, turning the curse's gaze to the woman.

"I don't make declarations lightly, wench," the curse muttered, looking at the woman in question.

"In any case, you've been hiding the last finger. Cocky six eyes," the curse said, glancing at Gojo.

The entire audience turned to gaze at the tall man who had just placed his palms on his hips and was glaring back at the curse.

"What does this mean, Gojo-sensei?" Nobara and Megumi inquired.

"Since I'm kind enough to spare you an explanation, you fools, he hid the finger to delay the brat's execution, keh, keh, keh what a kind young lad, aren't you six eyes?" the curse muttered, motioning with his hand.

Yuji was taken aback by the shocking revelation. Nonetheless, he smiles warmly at his teacher. Yuji was moved to hear that. Knowing his teacher genuinely cares about him. No, for everyone.

Gojo, like Yuji, hides everything for himself. He cares for everyone even though he doesn't express it, and he always has a carefree attitude with everyone around him. Yuji understands how difficult it must be to be the strongest when everyone relies on you.

"Thank you, gojo-sensei," Yuji replied to Gojo, allowing the tall man to remove his blindfold and stroll approach Itadori.

Yuji extended his arm to welcome Gojo in, hugging him back. Sukuna, on the other hand, is enraged and steadily approaches the two.

Megumi attempted everything he could to stop Sukuna. The curse grinned as he gazed at him. "Don't you want to trade places with my vessel, Fushigurou Megumi?" The cursed laughed as he interrogated the young man. Megumi is taken aback by this. Sukuna was hissed at by Itadori.

"You promise to keep your hands off Fushigurou, Kuna," Yuji said, glancing at Sukuna, and the curse hissed in answer.

"Alright, brat," the curse muttered, shaking Megumi's grip on his wrist.

"Thank you for coming to see me, everyone. I really appreciate that, but for now, I'd want to relax and see Ms. Ieri-san," Yuji remarked, smiling to everyone, and Nobara hugged him with gojo as well.

Nobara drags Megumi along to join the group embrace. However, the others laugh when Megumi nervously cuddles itadori. Itadori pressed him up against his arm and hugged Megumi.

"I'm not sure what's going on, but let me join the hug," Panda rushed over to them. At the time, the King of Curses was in a state of panic.

"Oi! Oi! Oi!" You're crushing my vessel! You bastards, move out!" Sukuna panicked.

"There's nothing wrong with hugging, Suku-kun.You just lack affection because yours is pure cursed energy," Gojo stated, putting his tongue out. Teasing the King of Curses, the King stops himself from killing the six eyes on the spot since his vessel will be displeased.

"Itadori, are you getting a check-up?" Ms. Ieri entered the discussion, asking Itadori about his earlier appointment, but he collapsed on the way. Yuji replied with a nod.

"I think I know why I'm getting an upset stomach. For the time being, I only want to have a check-up for my health," Yuji stated, touching the individuals who were hugging him. Gojo shoved the panda to the side. Telling Panda that he is going to crush Itadori. The king of curses is doing everything he can to stay out of the way of his vessel's blissful moment.

Nobara sneaks out and so Megumi in the wholesome embrace moments, and asks Itadori about his health condition about the stomach ache he has been experiencing for the previous two days they discussed.

"Have you figured it out yet, Itadori?" Megumi inquires first.

"What caused it, Itadori?"

"You better tell me," nobara said.

"What? Is my dear Yuji experiencing stomach problems these days?"Gojo said as he brushed Itadori's hair.

"Hey there, six eyes-"

"I think because I stayed up late eating midnight snacks hahaha," Itadori responded, nervously laughing.

"You're lying," Nobara and Megumi both exclaimed at the same time.

"My vessel did not deceive you. He simply chuckled uncomfortably because I was alongside him binge eating with him," the curse said, drawing the attention of the whole crowd and Itadori.

He's not sure if Sukuna is just protecting him or his own dignity in this situation, for what he did to this young man's body was truly terrible. Taking advantage of his slumber. He is unsure if he should be glad that he was not subjected to a barrage of questions that made him feel like he was on a hot seat.

Sukuna may become a little gentler for not injuring his companion since he is in his materialized form, or he may just maintain his vow to Itadori that he will keep his hands off his friend and remain true to his words because he is truly and so fucking awful every time.

It doesn't erase the truth of what he's done to Yuji and everyone else. Yuji is still adamant about not letting anything go. However, he is going to cease for the time being because he is in front of his friend.

Yuji can't rely on anyone, especially in this situation. He'll figure it out. He doesn't want to burden anyone, especially his teacher, who has the weight of the entire world on him. If he kept the calamity in his arm. He will not be able to cause harm to others because he is just too prideful to do so. Then he'll take advantage of it.

It is preferable to save everyone. He will cling to his only option, sacrificing himself. Sacrificing himself is preferable to sacrificing and watching his companions perish in front of him. That is not what he wants. He doesn't want anyone else to die. He will do this and die peacefully voluntarily becoming a tool. He doesn't mind at all if it means saving everyone.

He'll speak it out with Gojo because Sukuna can't hear his thoughts right now because he's in his materialized form. If he can't talk to Gojo right now, he needs to create a reason to do so. He has no idea when his next opportunity will come.

"Oh, I see, so that's why, is this why you couldn't tell us right away because this is what's going on?" Nobara inquired, and Yuji responded with a nod. Nobara groaned and understood instantly why his friend couldn't tell them.

"Regarding the binding vow you made with sukuna, sensei. Can I say something about this? Since I'm being involved with this?" Yuji inquires about his teacher, and Gojo breaks his hug and smiles at Yuji.

"Kuna, could you please give me a week before I decide on this?" he questioned the curse, who was approaching him and grabbing his hand.

"All right, brat," the curse said, prompting Yuji to glance at him and mumble, "What?"'

It was rare for Sukuna to react in this manner. He is irritable, angry, and dislikes waiting, so he is unsure why he did not disagree with Yuji.

"N-nothing," Yuji stammered as Sukuna squeezed him against his chest. "I don't like how your friends are so touchy with you," moans the curse.

"It's vexing," the curse muttered, gazing at everyone in the infirmary.

Rika-chan appeared and began screaming, "Jealousy is not nice, King of Curses!!" Rika said, her radio voice booming. Yuta, on the other hand, sought to soothe Rika-chan, and the king of curses hissed at him, telling him to make his curse calm down before he does anything, since itadori is not his close companion. Yuji, on the other hand, cut sukuna and says Yuta is his friend, and everyone who is friends with Yuta is also a friend.

"How the fuck does it work, brat?"

"You are impossible," the curse muttered and sighed, and Gojo smiled at the spectacle.

"Now we have two curses to deal with," Maki Zenin observed.

"I didn't know the king of curses would bend down for his vessel request nYAHAHHAH." gojo laughed wildly, and sukuna began gesticulating his hand for domain expansion, and Yuji swiftly covered the king of curses hand and held it, intertwining it.

"Kuna, calm down."

'What am I doing? It doesn't matter if sukuna is in a good mood; I need to take advantage of it.'

Yuji mused while slowly holding Sukuna's hand, and the curse looked at him, sighed, and muttered, 'alright.'

"You are lucky six eyes, you are my vessel teacher."

"That's all for the check-up, itadori. You overexerted it. You need to relax. Is there a specific cause that has you pushing your limits?" Ms. Ieri Shoko inquired of itadori

"Considering his brat attitude, he is training so much outside the field without telling his friend," the curse responded on Ms. Ieri, prompting Yuji to gaze at him.

The king of curses is well aware of the state of his vessel. He ends up replying on his behalf. Ms. Ieri nodded.

"All right, You need a lot of rest, Itadori, and I'll prescribe you some pain reliever for all that muscle soreness in your body right now." Yuji?" Ms. Ieri called. While the young kid blanks out since he understands what's causing the ache, and Sukuna's statement is making him feel embarrassed.

"Brat,"

"A-AH! Yes, Ms. Ieri," Yuji mumbled.

"I'll prescribe you naproxen, which you may take twice a day. You should take a warm bath as well, itadori." Ms. Ieri Shoko recalled, and Yuji nodded before dismissing the appointment.

Yuji's companions had already departed when Ms.Ieri Shoko announced that she needed to check in on Yuji since she had an appointment outside of jujutsu high.

While Gojo is away, Megumi and Nobara go off on a mission without Yuji, who requires a lot of rest.

He is currently alone with the King of Curses in his materialized form. He smiled as he gazed at Sukuna.

Yuji tried to rise. however, the curse wouldn't let him, so the curse morphed into his actual form and carried his vessel to the dormitories.
