"There's more to kindness than being soft on them." Maki looked away, slightly blushing out of embarrassment for not actually listening to what's happening.

"That's Zen'in-senpai, she's the best of all the students at wielding cursed tools." Megumi said

"Okaka." Inumaki shook his head in disagreement to what Maki just said.

"That's the Cursed Speech user, Inumaki-senpai. His only vocabulary is Onigiri Ingredients." Megumi muttered.

"But he's a bit softer when Yuta and Shirazaki-sensei are around.." Panda mumbled. "And That's Panda-senpai. There's one more, Okkotsu-senpai. He's the only upperclassman I can openly respect but he's overseas right now." He finished his explanation and got up.

"Are you seriously gonna leave the Panda's introduction at just 'Panda'??" Nobara asked, feeling weird to see a talking panda.

"Senpai, Where's Shirazaki-sensei?"

"At the Morgue with Satoru." Panda answered

"Hmm, I see.."

"Huh? Wait, Who is this Shirazaki-sensei?" Nobara questioned again. "Oh right, you haven't met her yet.. Shirazaki Hinari-sensei, She's also our teacher but she's mostly in charge of the sophomores."

"I see.."

"My.. Anyway we're sorry about this, even though you're still mourning.. Please forgive us for that." Panda apologized and looked at them again. "The truth is, we'd like you to participate in the Kyoto Sister School Exchange program."

"Kyoto Sister School Exchange program?? What the hell is that?" Nobara asked

"It's a joint program with the other Jujutsu High in Kyoto. But isn't that event mainly for Second and Third years?" Megumi asked.

"Yeah but those stupid third years are suspended right now. We don't have enough people so you guys gotta participate." Maki said

"What do you do at this event? Smash bros? I won't lose if it's the Wii Version. I'll meteor smash so you can't come back." Nobara grinned at the end of her words

"... Then let's make a 3-man team. Tokyo and Kyoto schools.. The match types proposed by each school principal will be given one day each. The event will be carried out over two days. Though that's just how it is on paper~ every year, the first day is team battles and the second day is individual." Panda explained

"Shake." Inumaki nodded.

"Team and Individual Battles?.. we fight against other Jujutsu Sorcerers?!" Nobara yelled in surprise.

"Yeah. It's a Jujutsu Battle where anything but killing goes." Maki grinned. "On the defense, I'll train both of you to the bone so that you won't get killed." Panda said

"Wait, do we even have time for that? I thought we were short on Jujutsu Sorcerers." Nobara raised an eyebrow at Panda.

"That's a good question, for now the melancholy of humans accumulates from the end of winter until spring, and comes crashing in the early summer as Curses. It's a busy season"
