Megumi widened his eyes, looked at Shin in surprise, and asked, "When did you learn Domain Expansion?"
Shin said, "Right after taking out that Kamaitachi."
Meanwhile, Yuji looked completely clueless. "What is Domain Expansion? Is it that impressive?"
Megumi patiently explained to him, "Domain Expansion is a highly powerful and advanced technique where a Jujutsu Sorcerer consumes a massive amount of Cursed Energy to construct a Domain in the surroundings, imbued with their Cursed Technique. It allows the Jujutsu Sorcerer to see the range of the technique with the naked eye."
"Moreover, a Jujutsu Sorcerer receives buffs in every aspect while within their Domain. Basically, if the opponent has no way to counter it, the Jujutsu Sorcerer is invincible inside their Domain."
After hearing this, Yuji's eyes immediately turned into stars. "That's so cool! Can I learn that in the future too?"
Yuji's words left the three silent.
Satoru had already checked with his Six Eyes. Yuji did not have any Cursed Technique engraved within him. He couldn't even meet the basic requirements for Domain Expansion, so it was impossible for him to expand a domain.
Shin patted him on the shoulder and said, "You definitely can. Even though you don't have a Cursed Technique now, who knows? Maybe you will in the future."
Megumi rolled his eyes at Shin. An Innate Cursed Technique is called "Innate" precisely because it's something one is born with.
Some people are born with a Cursed Technique but lack certain Cursed Energy pathways, which can be developed later through various means, like Yoshino Junpei.
However, someone who lacks a Cursed Technique and only has Cursed Energy pathways can never possess a Cursed Technique, unless they lose their consciousness and become a vessel.
Megumi assumed Shin was just trying to comfort Yuji, so he just sighed and said nothing.
Satoru received a message at this moment. After reading it, he said to the three of them, "The last first-year student arrives today. Let's go meet her together."
...
Soon, the four of them arrived outside the Tokyo station. As they stood on the roadside, the gazes of passersby drifted toward them one after another.
A tall, white-haired, handsome guy with a blindfold and a chuunibyou vibe.
A gloomy teenager with spiky hair giving off a "stay away" aura.
A pink-haired guy who looks dim-witted, like a thug for a crime syndicate.
And another boy who looks like a normal person in terms of hairstyle, hair color, and temperament, but he's wearing the same clothes as the other three. He's probably a newbie who just joined the crime syndicate—not a good person either.
Basically, all passersby stayed far away from the four of them. Only some schoolgirls stopped to take pictures or ask for photos.
...
After the group messed around for a while, Satoru spotted a spirited girl with orange eyes and short orange hair arguing with a middle-aged man.
"What do you mean? Am I not pretty enough?"
The man, who claimed to be a talent scout, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said awkwardly, "No, that's not what I meant. I just feel like you aren't quite suitable."
Nobara wanted to say more, but Satoru shouted to her from the side, "Hey! Over here!"
Hearing Satoru's call, Nobara let go of the man's collar and looked toward the Jujutsu High group.
Satoru introduced her, "Her name is Kugisaki Nobara. She is the last student of this year's first-year class. Everyone, introduce yourselves."
"My name is Itadori Yuji. Nice to meet you. We'll be classmates from now on."
'Ugh! A country bumpkin. He looks so stupid. He must have eaten his own boogers when he was a kid.'
"Fushiguro Megumi."
'Trying to act nonchalant, just saying a name. He must be a super gloomy person.'
"My name is Kagura Shin. I like all sorts of interesting things. If you have any fun ideas, feel free to call me along."
'What's with this guy? What kind of look is that? Acting like he can see through everything and knows it all.'
After silently judging the three from Jujutsu High, she introduced herself, "Just like the white-haired guy said, my name is Kugisaki Nobara. Cheer up, boys, the rose of Jujutsu High has arrived."
...
Satoru said, "Anyway, that's it. Originally, you were supposed to have an entrance assessment but since Shin was too bored a few days ago, he already exorcised that Cursed Spirit."
"So, we just need to eat, drink, and have fun tonight. What do you guys want to eat? My treat."
...
After some debate, everyone decided to go back to Jujutsu High and have a picnic in Shin's Domain Expansion, as Shin's Domain Expansion could satisfy almost any picnic environment.
Whether it was a forest, a snowy field, a vast grassland, the seaside, or even a magnificent underground cavern, it only took a little bit of time to create.
In the end, the group chose an underground cavern as the picnic spot.
Satoru bought a lot of things and invited Masamichi and Shoko to join.
The second-year students were still away on a business trip and couldn't make it.
Shin dismantled the original island Domain Expansion and used glow berries, moss, stalactites, and other items to rebuild a landscape that combined an underground cavern and a lush cave.
After pulling everyone into the Domain Expansion, Shoko couldn't help but praise, "Wow! I didn't expect Kagura's Domain Expansion to have such a beautiful view. But is it really okay to keep the Domain Expansion open all the time?"
Masamichi immediately started lecturing, "How unprofessional. Satoru, you need to set a good example yourself, otherwise, the students will learn bad habits from you."
Although Yuji had already heard from Megumi that a Domain Expansion was an advanced skill, he still didn't have much of a concept of it.
He casually picked a glow berry, popped it into his mouth, and said while chewing, "The Domain Expansion doesn't look that dangerous, does it? Is Kagura's Domain Expansion not the offensive type? But then again, this berry is so sweet and delicious."
Yuji reached out and picked a few more. Instantly, the light in the cavern visibly dimmed.
Thump!
Masamichi gave Yuji a knock on the head and dragged him aside to work as the labor for grilling meat.
Shin spent a little Cursed Energy to restore a few glow berries and then took out a pile of watermelon slices, apples, sweet berries, and glow berries.
"Everyone can feel free to explore the cavern. It's one large, open cave, so don't worry about getting lost."
