Chapter 29: 28. Evening conversation.



Chapter 28

Half an hour! That's how long it took him to tell me about his life, and I can't understand for the life of me why the hell he came to tell me this, I even caught a flashback to Saitama's situation, with the only difference being that I can't give out one-shots like he does. It seemed to me that even Oz, who was sitting next to me, was dumbfounded by this development of events.

- Um... well... - this awkwardness is so annoying, I simply don't know what to say to him. And in general, wasn't one of the important points of his personality that he almost never told me anything about himself.

- Is this the game Gojo-sensei was talking about? - fortunately, the guy asked a question to which I at least knew how to answer.

- Yes. It's Genshin Impact. I advise you to try it. Taivat is a very interesting world. - I said with a smile.

- This Taivat, are you really connected to it somehow?

- Hm? So you really didn't believe me then? - I was surprised. Although perhaps even more surprising was the fact that it seemed to me that he believed it right away.

- I'll be honest, it's almost impossible to believe that you're from another world, although this artifact at least explains how you use lightning. - He said, looking at the eye of the god that was lying on the table.

- Well, perhaps it is really hard to believe, but I don't see the point in convincing anyone. Listen, Fushiguro. You want to ask something, right? Please ask it directly.

- Okay. Teacher Gojo said that you knew that by going with Itadori's friends you would have to fight curses, and you clearly knew me and Satoru Gojo even before we met on the roof. Also, based on your reaction during my story, I confirmed that you already knew everything about me. I want to know where from.

"You're an asshole, Teacher!" - I mentally insulted Satoru Gojo for such a dirty trick.

- I can tell you, but you obviously won't believe me and, if it will calm you down, I have already told everything to Teacher Gojo.

- Believe it or not, I would prefer to decide for myself.

- Well, as you wish. Actually, before I was born in Taiwat, I lived in a world similar to this one, only there was nothing supernatural, or this side of the world was too well hidden and there was a manga called "Magic Battle". Well, I know you from this manga. Moreover, the events of the manga begin exactly on the day when Itadori ate Sukuna's finger. I thought not to let this happen, but there were many more curses than were canon. - I said with a slight resentment at the end.

- More than canon, you say? How much more?

- Em well, initially, not counting the last curse, there was only a small thing that you easily endured. And this time there was an additional strange curse that placed us in a separate space with hundreds of small curses.

- So that's how it is. In that case, I advise you to question your knowledge. Do you know what happened when Master Gojo was born?

- Mmm. It seems like his birth alone shifted the balance in the world and the curses began to become stronger...

- I see you understand. At first I didn't pay attention to it, but the infinity that you use is not your innate cursed technique, right?

- Well, yes?

- Good. Now think about it. If the birth of someone who has six-eye techniques and infinity has such a strong impact on the world, then what will happen with the appearance of a person who, in addition to six eyes, can copy cursed techniques. You are like Okkotsu Yuta, only you do not have his limitations and, more importantly, you have six eyes. I don't know what exactly you saw in the "manga", but everything will be more complicated.

Okay, I won't ask you to tell me because, unlike Master Gojo, I'm unlikely to be able to influence anything globally. Good night, Fischl. - Megumi said before heading for the exit.

- You underestimate your damned Fushiguro technique too much. - I called after him.

- Milady, what he said about the unexpected difficulty in protecting Sasaki and Iguchi makes sense. - Oz said.

- I know, I'll say even more, I'm almost sure that's how it was. However, you know, I don't care about that now. After all, now I'm planning to donate a lot and get a cat girl!

So the next morning came, and I was sitting in the dining room, upset, eating Mondstadt pancakes with sunset jam.

"How is that possible! 200 spins in a standard banner and all I could get was a weapon! It's good that Hu Tao was the event banner, it wasn't a pity to spend 560 spins on her full constellations, but it's certainly cool to win 50/50 7 times in a row, but why were all the legs strictly on the guarantee on the 80th spin? You know, I wouldn't mind losing the guarantee for Ke Qing. Oh well, at least Hu Tao will carry all the content forward for me."

Suddenly, Satoru Gojo came into the dining room. I wonder if he always gets up for breakfast at this time or if he does it on purpose to catch me.

- Good morning. - I greeted him.

- Good. Are these those same Mondstadt pancakes?

- Yes. - I answered with a sigh and without waiting for the next question, I took another ready-made portion out of my inventory. - Enjoy your meal.

- Thank you. What is the jam made of?

- Sunset. Do you want to try one? - I took out the mentioned fruit.

- Of course! It's a real curiosity from their other world.

- Well, I don't mind.

- Fischl, after breakfast, change into your sports uniform, we'll go to training. July is next week and since we don't know the exact date when you'll be sent against a special-rank curse, you need to learn how to fully use neutral infinity and, ideally, attack powerfully enough to harm an enemy of that level.

- I thought you'd be able to ensure that we weren't sent into such a trap. - I was surprised.

- No, you'll still have to go there and I have a small plan on how to buy Itadori enough time to calmly prepare for the exchange program.

- Do you want to fake his death?

- Yes.

- Share your plan?

- No. This task will be a test for you.

- What do you mean like yesterday with Kugisaki? Isn't this too cool, a test through a special level curse?!

- You can handle it. - they answered me with a smile.
