The Goofy Spring Breeze Blows Everywhere, Geto's Sister is Truly Impressive Ch. 56

"Tomorrow?" Naoya's fox-like eyes narrowed, then without hesitation, he stood up. "Then I'll come back tomorrow."

Chihori added, "Then don't forget to say the summon phrase when you come."

Naoya froze for a few seconds... then remembered that ridiculously embarrassing chuunibyou summoning line. Chin lifted high, he barked, "No way! Don't expect me to ever say that again—'Her Highness Doghead Rose'!!"

Megumi-deadpan: "You just said it again."

Naoya Zen'in: "..."

Naoya stormed off in a rage, sleeves flaring!

He was already fast to begin with, but now, desperate to get away from this infuriating place, Naoya kicked it into overdrive and dashed out of the building without even looking back!

Behind him, he could faintly hear someone shouting:
"—Wait! Your child, Naoya Mushroom—"

The moment he heard that, Naoya moved even faster, practically flying.

Maybe it was because he ran through a heavily wooded path, but his vision started to dim. Anger still boiled in his chest as he stormed ahead—until, a few seconds later, he gradually slowed to a stop.

Something felt... off.

Naoya looked around.

This didn't seem like any normal environment. The feeling it gave him was more like—he had been pulled into, or accidentally stepped into, the domain of a special-grade cursed spirit.

"...!"
His entire body tensed up.

And the very next second—
A hand suddenly landed on his shoulder!

Naoya: "!!"
He almost let out a full-blown scream!

"Hey there, Naoya-kun."
The silver-haired girl stood behind him, holding a tiny golden mushroom in her hands. "Do you still want this child?"

Naoya snapped, "I told you, I have nothing to do with that thing!"
He shouted reflexively, then quickly processed the situation. "How did you get in here?!"

Chihori replied, "I just walked in—anyway, this place feels weird."

Naoya: "...Do you even know where this is?"

His fox-like eyes glanced sideways at the silver-haired girl, and even with the heavy atmosphere, he still couldn't help tossing out a jab, "You're from the Gojo clan, right? Bet you've at least heard the term—this place is probably a domain of a special-grade cursed spirit."

He stared at her, waiting to see that deliciously stupid look of fear and panic on her face (even though he was probably going to die here too).

Under Naoya's mocking and expectant gaze—

Chihori: "Woaah, cool."

Naoya: "?"

Naoya Zen'in leaned back dramatically in disbelief: ...Did she really just say [woaah]?!?!

Inside the main hall.

Having lived for so many years, Tengen naturally had his own experience in observing and listening to others.

(*According to Gege Akutami, Master Tengen was biologically female at the time of her original appearance (over 1,200 years ago). In the JJK manga and anime, characters like Gojo and others refer to Tengen using masculine pronouns ("he"). This is likely out of habit or respect for the role Tengen plays rather than reflecting a biological or gender identity. When Akutami revealed in a fanbook that Tengen was originally female, it was not a retcon, but rather a clarification of Tengen's past.)

At this moment, he could sense that the Heavenly Restriction user present bore no ill will, and that their words were genuine.

Strawberry milk that could replace the Plasma Star Vessel...?

It sounded completely unbelievable, but if it was true—this might put an end to the Plasma Star Vessel's [sacrificial assimilation], saving a lot of trouble with raising and escorting the Plasma Star Vessels.

The people up above were still passionately, loudly (and with questionable flair?) promoting their product. After a brief but swift moment of consideration, Tengen finally relented and sent a voice transmission:

[Child of the Gojo family, you'll do. I'll open the lower barrier for you.]

"Sure, I'm on it," Satoru nodded cheerfully, taking the Dog Cocky Cat Brand Strawberry Milk.

Toji gave a small nod and spoke up, "Hold on, I want to add one thing—please give a review after drinking it. I need a video to finish the task."

Tengen agreed generously, [Don't worry, I'll give an honest answer.]

Toji: "Oh, no need to be honest, as long as it's a good review."

Tengen: [ ? ]

System: [Don't just blurt out your real intentions like that!!]

Toji tossed his phone to Satoru, asking him to casually record a simple video. If he couldn't get a video, a voice recording would work too.

Satoru walked down the stairs, getting ready to deliver the Dog Cocky Cat Brand Strawberry Milk to Lord Tengen.

Above, Toji and Suguru stood a short distance apart. The air between them felt like icy spring water in winter—frozen and hard to move through.

Suguru spoke first, "...I don't believe what you said just now. This time when I go home, I'll talk to my sister myself."

He turned toward Toji, his words carrying a hint of threat. "You'd better not have done anything shady."

Toji lazily glanced at Suguru from nearby, the scar on his lips lifting slightly as he said lightly, "And then what? What exactly can you do?"

Suguru froze, then his whole body flared with sharp, aggressive energy. He growled, "You—!"

Toji shrugged, looked away, and dragged his voice out as he said, "Alright, don't get so worked up, lil bro." His tone was casual. "Relax, this is a fair trade."

"...It better be." Suguru clenched his fists, then let them go.

Toji didn't say anything else.

But this wasn't over.

Toji: Once I get my phone back, I'll say a bit more and record it. It'll count as evidence to help lil bro stay motivated to study, and I can get paid for it later.

System: [Daaaaad—! You've totally mastered how to use language in a purely manipulative way, daaaad!!]

Meanwhile.

Hearing Chihori's heartfelt "Whoa," Naoya suddenly choked. He took a deep breath and lowered his tone. "This isn't some fun and games."

The blond young man's eyes tilted upward, voice low and raspy:

"Maybe it's Satoru-kun's usual chill way of dealing with curses that gave you the wrong idea, made you—a kid from the Gojo family—totally unaware of how terrifying a Special Grade can be..."

"Um, sorry to interrupt," Chihori raised her hand, blinking. "I'm not from the Gojo family."

Naoya: "Don't lie!"

During this meeting at the Dog Cocky Cat Building, they officially exchanged names.
