Throughout Heaven and Terra (Arknights x Jujutsu Kaisen)

Chapter 20: Downtime

"Gojo."

As the group made their way back to the landship of Rhodes Island, Kal'tsit spoke up to the white haired man.

"Hm? Need something?" The newly recruited operator turned to the woman as they walked.

"Specter has been receiving positive results ever since you came to visit."

"Specter? The Aegir woman that was brought in by Ms. Skadi?" Amiya perked up when hearing the name.

Raising an eyebrow, Gojo spoke, "and you believe it's correlated with me? Only happened two times," he shrugged.

Ignoring his comment, Kal'tsit continued forward as she spoke. "It would be beneficial for her if you keep visiting."

"Eh, I'm not a psychologist..." His words drawled on as he thought back to Skadi, who seemed to be Specter's friend. "...But I'll see what I can do."

"Thank you-"

"If~! I get a bonus out of this," the white haired man immediately cut her off with a big grin.

"...If you take on the task I will overlook the damage you had caused in the training room."

"Deal."

Amiya and the Doctor looked on as the two white haired people shook hands, turning to stare at each other.

"Well, he certainly knows how to spin things his way..." Amiya had a slight humorous smile.

"Indeed he does..." The Doctor felt a slight headache, wincing as unfamiliar memories started to make itself known.

Gojo roamed the bustling morning streets of Lungmen, passing by people going about their own business. He was currently exploring the city, as his objective to accompany the previous group of three had already come to pass; and he was given free reign to do whatever he liked.

Well, free reign until they needed to call him in for any back-up, he had explicitly stated to Kal'tsit when they were discussing his duties as an operator that he was inefficient when fighting with other people. This was mainly due to the high chance of hitting strays, his techniques had quite a large range after all.

That meant he would be pulled out of most operations, which usually were composed of a group of operators who can work in sync with each other.

Solo operations were pretty rare in Rhodes Island too, so he had quite a lot of free time to spend splurging it on other things.

'Is this how Tsukumo Yuki felt?' His thoughts came back to a certain blonde haired 'bum' as the higher-ups would call her. She spent most of her time away from Jujutsu society, and Japan in general as she explored the world.

Wandering this city certainly felt like exploring a world outside of Japan, since the structures were similar, but also vastly different at times. If he could enjoy seeing different sights as these every day, he understood why the Special Grade woman decided to ditch her duties entirely.

His steps halted, as he stared at a clothing shop displaying its contents through a glass window. The man simply smiled as he found exactly what he was looking for.

Stepping inside, he was greeted with an assortment of clothes lined up all across the store, as he made his way through to look for what he had wanted to buy.

'There it is,' he grabbed a light blue-tinted white dress shirt along with black dress pants and a belt. They both matched his exact size, so there was no need to try them on in the dresser room. He had his Six Eyes to thank for that.
