[Spell Return] Beast of Despair

3.

—January 2018, the rooftop of a building in Chuo-ku, Tokyo—

"You haven't apologized to me yet."

When he said those words, Gojo Gojo was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the roof, his hands hanging down tightly grasping Yesyu's wrists.

As expected, as long as he appeared in front of her eyes, her suicide would definitely be impossible.

Ye Zhi had no idea when he rushed out.At the moment when the feeling of weightlessness came, she also saw Gojo Satoru standing far away in a safe place, with his usual cold expression.

But even if he smiled mockingly, Ye Zhi would not be angry.

After all, he has laughed at him many times.

So she unconsciously began to hope that perhaps Gojo Satoru would not prevent her from dying.

It's a pity that she guessed wrong-she seems to have been unable to guess Gojo Satoru's code of conduct.

"You haven't apologized to me, so I have to interrupt your suicide." He grinned, and the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose slipped a little, "I'm sorry."

The whole weight of the body was still falling down, and the pulling feeling made Shizhi's wrist hurt.She really wanted to bite Gojo Satoru hard, thinking that maybe he would let go, but the problem was that she didn't have the strength to lift her body up now, and she couldn't even do the simple action of raising her eyes to look at him.

Her hands were still trembling, perhaps because of the crutches she had been on for too long.

She took a deep breath, the only movement she could do now.

"I've apologized." Very calmly, she said.

"No, no, no." Gojo Gojo shook his head in shock, "From the beginning to the end, you just said 'I will apologize to you', but is this sentence itself an apology?"

"I'm sorry" is an apology, "I'm sorry" is also an apology, and "it's my fault" can barely be squeezed into the category of apology.

But "I will apologize to you" is definitely not an apology.

But what Gojo Satoru is obsessed with is not an apology.He came to see her for something more important.

With a light tug, he easily pulled Shizhi back to the rooftop.To prevent her from accidentally jumping off again, he deliberately held her shoulder.

Surprisingly, she didn't show any stress reaction at this time.She was just sitting on the edge of the roof, her messy long hair hanging down her shoulders, the tips of her hair could already touch the ground.

Gojo Satoru stared at the ground, trying not to look at her.He knew that she loathed his eyes on that broken body.

"I've come to ask you for something back," he said.

She didn't respond, and Gojo Gojo tacitly accepted that she had heard what he said, so he continued.

"It's time to return the ring I gave you when I proposed." He said lightly, "After all, we have already broken up."

She let out a faint sigh and closed her eyes.She really didn't expect that what Gojo Satoru wanted back was actually a ring.

She really didn't want to repeat that answer again.She even wanted to jump off the building right now, but Gojo Satoru still presses her step by step with words.

"Go and get the ring back, and then die after returning it to me. I will never stop you then."

Although it is a tempting condition, but...

"I told you." Almost like gritting her teeth, she said stiffly, "I told you that the ring was…"

"The ring and the left hand were swallowed by the curse spirit, right?" Gojo Satoru certainly didn't forget, "Then just take the ring back."

He said so in a reasonable tone.

I just thought he said something stupid.

She knew very well that she couldn't get the ring back, because she was no longer a magician, and she didn't know where the magic spirit that ate her left arm, right leg and wedding ring was, so Gojo Satoru's suggestion was completely...

"It showed up."

A simple sentence brings amazing news.Even if he was so dull in his heart, he unconsciously opened his eyes wide when he heard Wujo Wu's words.

"The curse spirit that made you look like this - the curse spirit of the Yae family has appeared again."

"it……"

"You know, as long as you get rid of the curse spirit of the Yae family, you can get back both your hand and my ring."

He smiled and patted her on the head, as he always did.

"So, are you going to participate in this highly profitable boss battle, yes."

"Call me Yae."

She stubbornly turned her head away, avoiding all his touch.She could feel the scorching pain from the long-healed wound, as if it would burst open and bleed out in the next moment.

The shoulders are so heavy... Is someone holding her down?

"……Let me think about it."

4.

—April 2006, Tokyo Metropolitan High School of Magic—

"Five classmates, five classmates, five-tiao-students-students-!"

With the sound of hurried footsteps and the deliberately prolonged ending, Gojo Satoru can know who is running behind him without looking back to confirm.

He stopped in his tracks, gave an impatient "tss", and shouted, "Call me Wutiao senior!"

"What senior, we are obviously the same age."

Yae frowned, both in words and expression, showing disdain for his words.

But no matter what attitude she put on, Gojo Satoru still smiled recklessly, and even raised his hand to hold her head, expressing his height suppression to the fullest, even his words were merciless.

"No matter what, you are one level below me. Isn't that right, Yae-senpai in the first grade?"

Shizhi shook his head vigorously, but he couldn't get rid of his obstructive hand at all, so he said angrily: "I told you not to call me Yae, there will be ambiguity—the 'Yae' who is at the same level as me, but There are as many as three people!"

"Okay, okay, small is it."

Gojo Satoru, who said so with a smile, finally moved his big hand away from her head.

She was very happy about it, but she didn't like the new address that came out of his mouth.

"Don't add a word 'small'!"

Of course, it was impossible for Gojo Satoru to listen to her protest.He still had a smile on his face, and moved his lips on purpose, calling her "Little Yes" silently.

Hopeless.This guy is beyond help.

Yezhi kept taking deep breaths, trying to restrain all his anger and unhappiness, and stopped going around in circles with him, and went straight to the point.

"I'm curious about something." She said, and she stuffed a can of cherry-flavored Dr. Pepper soda into Gojo Satoru's hand, "You know, the Yae family is a branch of the Gojo family. I heard that a long time ago, the two families were still living together."

Gojo Gojo let out a muffled "Yeah", actually listening to her very patiently.

"However, at the end of the Edo period, the Yae family was expelled by the main family, Gojo. Since then, they moved to Wakayama and almost lost contact with magic. My old man mentioned before that the Yae family committed an unspeakable crime. I was expelled from the master's house because of the great sin of forgiveness. But he never told me the specific sin."

She blinked and gave a well-placed ingratiating smile.

"But the genius Gojo classmate of the Gojo family must know the inside story--right, right!"

Gojo Satoru let out a muffled "hum" and squinted at her.After staring at her like this for a while, he said slowly and pretentiously: "It's not impossible to tell you, but..."

While talking, he suddenly tossed the soda can in his hand high, and caught it firmly again, his eyes moved from the soda can back to Yezhi's body, and he pulled the corner of his mouth, revealing a ruffian smile.

"……That's it?"

From the reflection of his sunglasses, Ye Zhi seemed to see the word "blackmail".
