The previous Kobe Suzuo was too limited; the current Kobe Suzuo's thoughts were incredibly clear and unobstructed.
Standing beside Satoru Gojo, he was rarely so unbothered by the issue of height.
Kobe Suzuo felt that she had already adopted her most friendly attitude, said kindly, "I'm sorry, Satoru-kun, for showing you such an impolite side of myself."
Even Satoru Gojo couldn't understand why he hadn't slipped away just now, which resulted in him being caught red-handed.
If possible, could you let me treat you to a meal to express my apologies?
Satoru Gojo looked down at Kobe Suzuo's "hypocritical" smile and shuddered, seriously suspecting that this person's so-called treat was an attempt at poisoning.
He turned to leave, but Kobe Suzuo was quick and caught his wrist.
Satoru Gojo felt his feet slip, his vision blurred.
That "blackout" sensation, as if the Six Eyes had failed, occurred once again.
By the time they regained their senses, the two of them had already fallen to the ground.
Kobe Suzuo was at the bottom, with Satoru Gojo's head pressed against his chest, the hand protecting the back of Satoru Gojo's head felt distinct.
His heart rate quickened for no reason; since he could remember, Satoru Gojo had rarely had this level of physical contact with anyone.
Satoru Gojo's frame was a full size larger than Kobe Suzuo's, the way the two of them were sprawled on the ground in a heap was far from graceful; it was more comedic than aesthetic.
Before the surrounding service staff could crowd around, Satoru Gojo stood up with a "whoosh."
He was certain now; Kobe Suzuo indeed possessed a certain Cursed Technique that could briefly cause the "Six Eyes" or even "Limitless" to fail.
It was simply unheard of.
Satoru Gojo narrowed his eyes slightly, as his curiosity, which he had momentarily cast aside, surged back into his mind.
Kobe Suzuo stood up from the ground, a bright light shimmering in her pitch-black pupils.
Always causing intimate movements due to minor accidents, it is also one of the passive buffs.
Now, although Kobe Suzuo could not be certain that Satoru Gojo was the Fated Person mentioned by the World's Consciousness, he was certainly close enough.
He whispered a few words to the attendant who was guarding him anxiously by his side, then turned back to extend the invitation once more with sincerity:
Fated.. I mean, Satoru-kun, shall we talk?
Chapter 4 That Dinner
It is currently nine o'clock at night. Outside the massive floor-to-ceiling window, the lights are dazzling, the city's hustle and bustle is shut out, the splendor of the lights is right before one's eyes.
The brilliant neon lights were like stars fallen to the mortal realm; at this height, the world seemed to lie at one's feet.
Kobe Suzuo had always been an opportunist, after adding Satoru Gojo to the priority list, she immediately demonstrated extraordinary decisiveness.
For instance, a romantic dinner was arranged at a prime vantage point on the rooftop.
But Satoru Gojo was clearly uninterested in the candlelight dinner; the exquisite plating and elegant music were both ignored.
The "bad-tempered" young God's Child merely ate the small cakes before her with indifference, the silver fork making a crisp clinking sound against the porcelain plate.
He circulated his Cursed Energy with interest, attempting to uncover the "little secret" within Kobe Suzuo.
Under the dim and beautiful lights, those ethereal and translucent eyes shimmered with fragmented arcs of light, as if they contained the truths of the universe.
She was more beautiful than any gemstone Kobe Suzuo had ever seen.
Unique, one of a kind in this world.
The suit that had been splashed on Kobe Suzuo had been changed into simple casual wear, but it remained elegant and appropriate.
She was certain that the "Six Eyes" could not see anything, so she smiled with elegance and restraint, allowing Satoru Gojo to observe her.
“CEO Passive” is a "blessing" from the world's consciousness, primarily serving to bring unexpected encounters and enrich thin interpersonal relationships.
It has nothing to do with the laws of the Jujutsu World; it is simply a personal trait.
Kobe Suzuo once hated this constitution.
After all, for a young CEO, the person catching his eye in a crowd—aside from a beautiful encounter—is more likely to be a kidnapper.
Similarly, the one who falls into a CEO's arms might be a female protagonist, but it could also be a vicious cannon fodder.
Kobe Suzuo silently observed the young man opposite her, her eyes dark and inscrutable.
Satoru Gojo quickly devoured the sweets before him, a look of satisfaction on his face from having consumed enough sugar.
Under the perspective of the Six Eyes, all fluctuations of Cursed Energy have nowhere to hide, but no matter how you look at it, this Supervisor Kobe in front of him was just a weakling.
He barely reached the level of a Grade 4 Jujutsu Sorcerer, with almost no distinctive features whatsoever.
But the Six Eyes did indeed fail for a brief moment.
Satoru Gojo pondered, could it be a Cursed Technique that only triggers upon direct contact?
Having thought this, he decided to try it himself on the spot.
The white-haired youth stood up from his chair and walked a few steps to Kobe Suzuo's side, his tall figure completely overshadowing her.
He did not care whether his actions at this moment were offensive; he simply thought of it, so he made an attempt.
The young man's long, fair palm landed on Kobe Suzuo's shoulder as he lowered his head, meeting her eyes, which had widened slightly in shock.
Satoru Gojo's fingers brushed past the pulsing vein in his neck, slowly moving upward across his cheek, until his fingertips finally came to rest between his eyebrows.
Nothing happened.
Did you discover something?
Kobe Suzuo looked at him with raised eyebrows, her dark eyes seemingly containing both tolerance and novelty, a faint smile etched upon her face.
The look in his eyes, which was a mix of strange emotions, made Satoru Gojo feel slightly displeased. He curled his lip and sat back in his original seat.
I didn't find anything at all; Supervisor Kobe is as cunning as a fox.
Satoru Gojo spoke such childish words, but his mind was as clear as a mirror.
As the God's Child of the Gojo Clan, even if Satoru Gojo did not actively pay attention, the sordid affairs of the Jujutsu World, along with various classified intelligence, would be laid out before him.
The Jujutsu Director who was newly appointed two years ago adhered to mysticism and rarely made public appearances.
This was not surprising; while the Jujutsu Director wielded power, he also bore significant risks, it was only natural for a man who cherished his life to act like a coward within the upper echelons.
This Director Kobe was efficient and decisive in his actions, single-handedly shattering the balance of the Jujutsu World's upper echelons.
Rumor has it that, aside from wealth and power, the thing that makes people most wary of him is the "all-knowing" intelligence department he controls.
Kobe Suzuo said his intelligence came from the upgraded [Window] internal system, but Satoru Gojo knew that this was most likely the work of that Director Kobe.
Satoru Gojo wondered if Kobe Suzuo was the Director himself from the rumors, but he was too young, appearing to be only in his early twenties, lacked the seniority to be a Director.
It is highly likely a junior from the Kobe Family who manages the finances.
This also explains Kobe Suzuo's extraordinary financial power.
The old fogies might make concessions for the sake of interests, but as long as they themselves are threatened, they will spare no effort in eliminating the source of danger.
Perhaps Kobe Suzuo's arrival at Jujutsu High to serve as an Assistant Supervisor was a signal—the old fogies were going to make a move against the Director.
Therefore, this mysterious Director, who had only been in office for two years, had no choice but to spread his forces thin to ensure his own survival.
The upper echelon is about to descend into chaos.
When he realized this, Satoru Gojo felt more of a sense of schadenfreude.
He couldn't wait for those rotten old oranges to fight each other, hoping they would both suffer heavy losses and be tossed into the trash together.
Kobe Suzuo didn't care what happened to that mysterious Jujutsu Director.
In any case, in Satoru Gojo's eyes, the higher-ups were already so rotten that things couldn't possibly get any worse.
A fox?" The word rolled around on Kobe Suzuo's tongue. "What exactly does Satoru-kun want to know?
Satoru Gojo asked with great interest, "Will you tell any Supervisor I ask?"
Kobe Suzuo nodded, "Yes, I am willing to reveal myself to Satoru-kun without reservation."
The man's voice was low and elegant, like a lover's whisper.
Satoru Gojo noticed that he had changed his way of addressing him, he shuddered on the spot, curling his lip with a look of disgust. "Mr. Suzuo is so disgusting when he speaks."
But curiosity still won out. "What's the deal with that ability of yours that can shield the Six Eyes and Limitless?"
It is the price of a [Binding Vow].
Kobe Suzuo raised her hand, took the document folder from the attendant, demonstrated the prepared set of words.
My Innate Technique is called [Contract]. When the wills of two or more parties reach a consensus, a formal agreement bound by the laws of the world can be obtained through a written agreement.
He casually pulled out a drafted property transfer agreement, filled in the details, signed his name, pressed his thumbprint, handed it to Satoru Gojo.
Satoru Gojo glanced at it and signed his name in the position of the Second Party.
At the moment the hand seal was pressed, the Six Eyes clearly captured the circulation of brilliant golden Cursed Energy, the Cursed Technique was successfully activated.
The rule took effect.
Regardless of whether the law recognizes it, from this moment on, this house of Kobe Suzuo no longer belongs to him, but to Satoru Gojo.
If the terms are violated later, the breaching party will be punished, meaning they will bear the responsibility for the breach of contract.
Satoru Gojo's mind was incredibly sharp. "A [Contract] recognized by the laws of Jujutsu?"
Kobe Suzuo nodded.
As long as it is reasonable and both parties agree, most Contracts can take effect smoothly.
This is the ability Kobe Suzuo gained in the Jujutsu World; by signing a "contract," he can obtain loyal labor through methods such as paying money.
Successfully poached the old man's talent for Kobe Suzuo and secured a first bucket of gold.
Being exploited by Kobe Suzuo was certainly better than being exploited by the upper crust of trash.
Although capitalists are also a pile of shit, shit-flavored chocolate is much better than chocolate laced with knockout drugs.
Kobe Suzuo gave a feigned smile, deliberately leading the conversation:
You should be able to see that my Cursed Energy is quite weak, hardly enough to support such a complex Cursed Technique.
