Curse back: Gender-swapped cosplayers always meet the real person

Chapter 370 Exchange Group Battle - Ending

"My dear friend, let's go." Aoi Todoh walked in front of Yuji Itadori, with her shirt off, and walked leisurely in front, still talking about the handshake event held by Odakata recently.

However, in Yuji Itadori's mind, the conversation between Aoi Todoh and Kenki Kamo just now emerged uncontrollably.

And the expression during the conversation.

"Hey, Toudou." He hesitated for a moment, but finally stopped and asked, "Can you tell me about Kamo's past?"

*

Kamo Kenki was a bastard son born to a concubine, but because he inherited the Red Blood Manipulation Technique, he was raised as a legitimate son.

This is almost an open secret among the three major families.

In this ancient family where strength is respected, inheriting the techniques handed down from ancestors is almost like stepping halfway to becoming a superior person.

What we need to do next is to work hard to make progress through teaching and training, and live up to the name of "Red Blood Maneuvering".

However, as the "young master" of the family, Kamo Kenji's talent is neither as shining as the six eyes of the Gojo family, nor as free as Fushiguro Megumi of the Zenin family.

As the next "head of the family" in a declining family, through day-to-day training, he has almost engraved the word "hardworking" into his brain.

However, no matter what, the fate of separation between mother and child cannot be avoided.

In order to cover up her origin as a "bastard", her mother, who was a concubine, was forced to leave the Kamo family. Her father did not even try to keep her and just coldly drove her out of the house.

"Xianji, you are a talented child." Before leaving, the mother stood in front of the courtyard and said to Kamo Xianji who rushed over, "You must use your strength to help others."

"In this case, even if you are lonely, it will only be temporary. In the future, you will become an independent sorcerer. When that time comes, you can come and pick me up, okay?"

The young boy, wearing his family's clothes, watched her leave with her suitcase.

I only remember that the road my mother walked was so far, so long, and so lonely.

The sunlight flooded her back, and when she turned her head, it was empty, with nothing left.

Maybe it was because he had been working so hard for too long and he didn't want to wait any longer. His obsession overwhelmed what his mother had said, so, in the meeting, no one was optimistic about the plan, but Kamo Kenji was the only one who chose to implement it.

If I could keep my mother by my side, that would be great.

For a moment, he thought so. Of course, the murder plan did not succeed.

Holding the green glass bottle tightly, Kamo Kenji laughed at himself and looked behind him. He asked the pink-haired boy who had returned, "Why, you dared to leave Toudou and run back alone? Do you think I don't have the ability to kill you anymore?"

"No." Yuji Itadori shook his head and answered him, "But, I think..."

"You don't seem determined to kill me."

This is what Yuji Itadori slowly realized after chatting with Aoi Todou on the way back.

At that time, the surrounding sorcerers might rush to the scene at any time to support or stop his actions.

If we consider the degree of urgency, Kamo Kenji should be more anxious than him. If he really wanted to kill him, he would have taken more drastic measures to get rid of him quickly.

But he didn't.

This means that this person is not as determined as he appears to be. At least, he is not determined to kill the opponent 100%.

"Since you don't want to kill them all, why do you still do this?" Yuji Itadori asked, "Obviously, it won't do you much good."

Kamo Kenji lowered his head, his long hair on both sides already messy because of the battle. He moved awkwardly and said with difficulty, "Yuji, you just said that you want to work hard to become stronger in order to protect important people, right?"

"Yeah." Yuji Itadori nodded and replied, "Yes, and I also want to die surrounded by people."

This statement was both frank and firm.

"That's right..." Kamo Kenji looked up and re-depicted the voice in the sunlight. He murmured in a low voice, "My mother said the same thing."

Maybe a while would pass in silence and peace like this.

"Tiger stick."

"Yes."

"If, one day, you really become very strong and leave everyone far behind," Kamo Kenji cheered up again and said, "Please, don't forget the way you came here."

Don't be like me, struggling diligently in confusion, and then being too lonely, desperately wanting to find a way out.

"Yeah." Yuji Itadori was stunned for a moment, then promised seriously, "I won't."

Kamo Kenji smiled lightly, took out a green glass bottle from his sleeve and handed it over. Due to the movement, the wound on his chest was torn. He coughed violently twice and spoke while covering his mouth.

"Take this."

"what is this?"

Yuji Itadori took the bottle, picked it up curiously and put it in the sun to examine it. The bottle mouth was stuffed with a brown cork, which was pressed tightly. The bottle was full and there was no sign that it had been opened.

"This is an item sent by a servant who claims to be from the Kamo family." Kamo Kenji explained, "I have never heard of his name, nor have I seen his face in the old house. That person has an ordinary face, but speaks with magical power. He may be related to the curse master."

"At that time, he told me that if I injected this thing into your blood, two days later, Ryoumen Sukuna would be able to break free from your control and come out to kill people."

"But you didn't use it." Yuji Itadori touched the wound on his body caused by Kamo Kenji's Red Blood Manipulation Technique and said, "The colors of the arrows shot before seem to be different from those in here."

"That's right." Kamo Kenji said frankly, "That's just a pure poison. If it pierces your body, it will kill you within thirty minutes. It's not the same medicine as the one in the bottle."

Yuji Itadori: “….”

"Why not use it?" he asked. "It's obviously safer, and it won't be discovered that it was you who did it."

After all, two days have passed. It is not easy to check, and there is no need to offend a large group of people.

"I, Kamo Kenji, am not so despicable as to use such means to get rid of a person."

"........."

As the two were talking, fireworks suddenly sounded above the competition venue, signaling the end of the competition.

It is not yet dusk yet, and the fact that the game can be ended means that the second-level cursed spirits in the field have been removed and the winner has been decided.

"Since the game is over." Kamo Kenji's tense body relaxed completely. He leaned back against the tree in a cold sweat, his face pale as he closed his eyes, "Go... Wait, what are you doing!"

The sudden feeling of weightlessness startled Kamo Kenji, and he shouted, "Hey, Yuji, you......!"

"It's very simple." Yuji Itadori carried the man on his shoulders, naturally avoiding the most seriously injured part of his body, and said calmly, "The game is over, and we are not competitors. Then of course I have to transport you back for treatment, otherwise I will just watch you lying here dead."

"Hey, put me down." Kamo Kento said angrily, "I am at least two years older than you. I am your senior, you little jerk!"

Yuji Itadori walked forward on his own.

He seemed to have remembered something, so he stopped, looked up at the rows of birds flying across the sky, and asked, "I say, Senior."

"what?"

"You said you are two years older than me, so you must have already reached adulthood."

"Yes."

"Another powerful quasi-first-class sorcerer."

"Well, I'll take it as a compliment."

"Since you are an adult and a powerful quasi-first-level sorcerer, why can't you take the initiative to find your mother?"

Kamo Kenji's squinting eyes, which were originally closed, suddenly opened wide.
