Chapter 88: ISE CLAN (3)
Or
It's the latest post. Thanks to all those who paid a visit to my site and for those who are wary because they think I switched to paywall, then you are mistaken. Gojo and SHK will always be free. Though of course you can support me and enjoy advanced chapters by subscribing to *******.

Gojo stayed silent, his eyes expressing neither shock nor surprise. His heart rate did not even go up.
Even seeing his friend alive after technically having killed him a few years ago only shocked him for a second in relative time and only 60 seconds in his own subjective time. Though, that resulted in him being sealed which was quite ironic.
Generally, it was the good guys sealing the demon king because he was too powerful and dangerous but in his case, the situation got completely reversed.
Currently, Gojo could accelerate his own subjective time up to 180 times that of a normal person, and he did not hesitate to do so.
How did she find it?
Why now?
What should he answer?
Those three questions swam in his head as he thought about the most appropriate solution.
In the end, he decided that all Nanao had should have been speculation. Then, he just had to play dumb all the way.
Allying his own perception with that of the world, he tilted his head to the side and showed an expression of confusion as he asked,
"What do you mean? If it's about me being human when I was alive, you could say that I am indeed not from this world."
Nanao, who had been observing him, did not seem surprised at this answer,
"Satoru, you can fool everyone, even Captain Unohana butYou can't fool me. Remember? I was the one who helped you in creating, or should I say, recreating your cursed technique."
"How confident are you in dealing with a curse?"
Gojo let out a light laugh at this question.
"I see, so your interest for me was not because of my handsome face but rather my skills."
Nanao's face flushed a little but she coughed a little to calm herself down, which only made Gojo laugh louder.
This situation had been something quite novel for Gojo. It was the first time he had been suppressed so much by someone who was so much weaker than him.
From the beginning, she had perfect and absolute control over the discussion, controlling the pace as she wanted.
He had to admit, this was quite a new experience for him.
Once he stopped laughing, Gojo strode slowly toward her and only stopped just one step away from her.
Because of their difference in heights, she had to raise her head to look at him, and could not help but get lost as she stared into his eyes.
Gojo's lips curled into a sly grin as he pinched her and lowered his face towards her.
Flustered at the sudden attack, all she could do was close her eyes before feeling a hot breath tickle her ear, before feeling her earlobe being gently bitten by him, greatly startling her as she took a step back, her face completely red and her heart beating like a drum.
"Thiswas for messing with me."
Then, placing his hand on her hair, he gave a large smile as he finished,
"As for curse? Trust me, I am a professional when it comes to this."
Behind him, high in the sky, fireworks exploded, filling the sky with thousands of lights.
(AN: Gojo is a sore loser, lol. Anyway, this is basically the end of this little arc. Soon, it will be time for some serious shit to come down. Also, I am sure that many will like CH 81, hehe!)
