---Chapter---

And so, like that, more than a month passed,

Today, Yuta and Maki could be seen standing under the sun on the lush green grass which acted as a natural arena for their sparring.

Yuta held his training sword while Maki held a wooden staff as they faced each other in silence not breaking eye contact.

It's just that this peaceful atmosphere was short-lived as Yuta launched his offense trying to land a hit on Maki who quickly defended with ease and started counter-attacking.

It was evident that Yuta had improved significantly since he started his training as he now knew how to use his weapon in combat, a far cry from his earlier struggles.

And so, with Yuta also defending and counter-attacking whenever he found the chance, the duo quickly entered high-speed combat as their bodies moved with fluid grace each showcasing their skills.

And from a distance, while the two were going at it, Panda and Toge could be seen sitting on the stairs watching them.

"Ohh."

"Tuna!"

However, just then, Gojo's voice suddenly appeared from the distance interrupting the battle for a moment.

"Hey, Hey, Everyone! How's it going?"

Hearing this, Yuta immediately lowered his guard and turned his head to respond.

"Oh, uh..."

However, this only caused him to get attacked by Maki in the face using the staff as she admonished him for his action.

"Don't get distracted."

Hearing this, Yuta touched his face and responded.

"Right."

"Take your stance already, Idiot!"

"Right!"

"You're going to land a blow on me, aren't you?"

Hearing this, it seems that Yuta was finally motivated as he really wanted to land even a hit on her after all the training he had to go through.

"Yes!"

And so, the battle instantly resumed in a much more intense manner with Yuta giving it his all, however, it appears that this backfired as Maki was quickly able to take him down as she then landed a hit on his head again using the staff.

"There, you're dead, I win again!"

"Was that last hit necessary?"

"Don't be soft, You should always treat it like it's a real battle, the pain or lack thereof makes a huge difference in how fast you grow."

Listening to this, Yuta took up his sword and stood up again while speaking to Maki.

"One more, please!"

Seeing this, Panda who was still watching them from the stairs couldn't help but comment.

"His movements have gotten a lot better."

"Salmon."

Hearing this, Gojo nodded as he couldn't help but add.

"His personality is more positive now, too."

"Salmon roe."

However, just then a sudden unfamiliar voice sounded from behind them also commenting on the situation.

"Well, their martial arts are only so-so."

"Well for their age..." Instinctively responded Gojo just to stop mid-sentence as he realized that something was wrong.

This was also noticed by Panda and Toge who instantly jumped forward from their position to create some distance which in turn caused Yuta and Maki to immediately stop their battle as they also noticed the intruder.

However, when the group saw Gojo still standing there unphased, they couldn't help but relax as they then questioned Lorien.

"Who are you?"

Hearing this, Lorien just smiled at them before turning his head towards Gojo who had already removed the bandages on his eyes so he could see Lorien.

"Nice to meet you again!"

"So, It's you."

"Expecting someone else?"

However, just then, the sound of a phone ranging disrupted the atmosphere which caused Lorien to frown, it's just that after realizing that it was his own phone and seeing who the caller was, a helpless look couldn't help but appear on his face.

*Ring*

*Ring*

*Ring*

'Ugghh, why is she calling now.'

Shaking his head, Lorien didn't bother thinking about it as he would know after responding, so after giving everyone present an apologetical smile, he said as he pressed the green button.

"Sorry, I have to take this."

Seeing this, the group of students instantly felt pissed off as they felt a strong urge to attack, however, they were then stopped by Gojo who kept looking at Lorien with keen interest.

It's just that Lorien didn't care about any of this right now as none of their attacks would land anyways as he had the [Dream mode] activated.

"Heeey Yuki! How are you doing?"

"Well, I am fine, are you busy now?"

Hearing this question, Lorien turned his head toward Gojo before responding.

"I am currently at Jujutsu High."

"Huh? Why did you go there?"

"Felt bored and I wanted to meet some interesting guys."

"...Tsk, Don't get killed."

"Worried about me?"

"I am just worried that we won't be able to finish the plan."

"And here I was feeling touched."

"..."

Getting no answer for a while, Lorien finally couldn't help but ask.

"So, why did you call me?"

"I found something interesting that I wanted to share with you, however, it seems that this isn't the time for that!"

"Indeed."

"Well, I'll call you later then."

"See ya!"

*Beep*

*Beep*

*Beep*

Hanging the phone, Lorien turned his attention again toward Gojo who was currently looking at him with narrowed eyes.

"Sorry about that, where were we again?"

However, Gojo ignored this question as he asked one of his own.

"Was that the special-grade sorcerer Yuki you were talking to right now?"

Hearing this, a cunning light shone in Lorien's eyes as he knew that his plan had worked, after all, when Yuki called he could have ignored the call or simply shielded the voice using his power, however, he didn't do so as he wanted to bait Gojo.

"Maybe yes, Maybe no."

Seeing Lorien's playful attitude, Gojo wasn't that amused by it as he continued asking.

"What plan were you talking about?"

"Ughh, don't look so serious." Responded Lorien as he started scratching his shin looking as if he was thinking hard.

However, this brief moment of contemplation was quickly replaced by a burst of excitement as his eyes lit up and a physical light bulb materialized above his head which emitted a cartoonish glow as if straight out of a comic strip.

"I've got an idea!"

However, seeing this, Gojo couldn't help but frown a bit, his face turning even more serious.

'Did he just manifest that? I felt no cursed energy.'

It's just that Lorien didn't care about the reaction of the people present here as he said while pointing his finger at Gojo.

"How about this, let's battle right now, If you can win against me, I'll tell you everything you want to know!"
