Satomi's pov :
And here I go again.... going to missions by myself. But I hate to work in groups since I think when it's more people...it causes more troubles. I'm Gojo Satomi. Or maybe just Satomi. My clan has cleaned off my existence from their family history. I'm known as the forgotten Gojo. I don't mind it to be honest. I feel better to be taken away from that place. I'm so used to of darkness that this dark spooky forest doesn't scare me anymore. I'm supposed to visit the higher ups after this mission and then Satoru uncle. Why the fuck everyone needs me today.... anyways I can't complain , i should not complain.
Bang- ....I flew away and hit the tree. I was in the middle of my own thoughts where the fuck this stupid ass curse came from huh? I didn't even got a good look at it ....fuck you .
"Oi you ! stop attacking from the dark! Come out if you've guts!"
Satomi wtf ....curses dont communicate..but I need to take out my anger on something at least. I got hit from the darkness.... again....why on first place they sent me here at night!!! God ! Damn it !!!
This time I caught it's fist and swinged it away on the ground. I still can't control my infinity fully that's why I got hit. My infinity isn't as powerful as Satoru uncle...but I will get stronger.... I'll. I've to prove them wrong. I'll show them what I can do.
The curse was about to fight back but I blew it away using space manipulation. My cursed technique allows me to control the space around me in a range. I can crush things by using space and that's what I exactly did to exorcise this damn curse! Well by looking at it ....it seems like a grade two curse... Hmm ok. Mission done i gue- .....
Ahhhh? Uh? Huh???? When I opened my eyes I was on the ground...my hands and legs are bleeding in places, my uniform is cut in those places.... I must've got hit and rolled harshly on the ground....but how-
Oh shit.... there's another cursed spirit? But they told me there was only one who was kidnapping kids from nearby village... This one looks like a giant compared to me. It's even uglier and stinky ....wow why I'm even here. Well i guess since I'm here I'll try to fight it. It looks stronger than me......oh God what now? The giant curse is wiggling and it's making the ground shake and some trees are falling here and there. It's hard to move in these kinda places.
"Infinity! On !"
I knew I had to turn it on to keep alive in this fight. This damn curse is trying to eat me alive. And it's even moving fast. I can only keep infinity around me for fifteen minutes till now.... I've to learn it even more....I need to master it. For last two years in jujutsu high, I've been one of the strongest students and I've been going to missions alone since I was a first year student. I just preferred it this way. I never had very much trouble until now...
Ack....I nearly got eaten again.... it's hard to levitate while infinity on... I'm trying to keep it while levitating. If I'll use cursed technique reversal....or red ...then it'll consume a lot of curses energy. Okay calm down Satomi ...you know what to do.
I started moving quickly around it trying to destroy it's limbs by crushing it with limitless. It's not helping but I'm trying. I aimed for the head next time to crush it but then was thrown away by it.... I stood up from the ground and stared at the curse with an angry face....this curse is definitely stronger than a grade one curse.....
I pushed my leg a bit and streched my arms. Okay Satomi..if it's not now then it's never. I slowly levitated in the air , trying to continue the infinity around me. I'm good at hand to hand combat or the weapons but this curse won't die like that. I need to be rough.... I need to be stronger...
"Reversal red .....!!!"
I pointed my index finger in front of me , making a red cursed power ball, it's getting bigger and bigger. It's not if I can do it but it's I've to do it. It's hard to continue infinity and levitation and cursed attack at the same time. I've never done it before. I didn't know if I was capable to go to that level but since I'm in do or die situation I'll just let things slide like it can . I threw the cursed energy at the curse. I thought nothing will happen but then...
The giant curse bursted into pieces and was blown away onto the ground....dead. it hardly even looks the way it looked before. I looked down at my uniform....
damn it... I've to get a new one ..
It's ripped in places and talking about my injuries...i never got injuries like this before..... it's first time . I felt irritated knowing i wasn't strong enough to get that shit down sooner and even injuried myself, my legs and arms are bleeding in places. But i was even more irritated that I was not told that I could face a strong grade curse here. Why bother sending students to missions with incomplete informations? Damn those higher ups...I even have to see them after this .
I was busy in my thoughts that I didn't realise that I was still levitating in the air while my infinity was still on ....more than fifteen minutes! Oh shit oh shit ....this is incredible!
I came back to jujutsu high after an hour looking like half dead after that fight. I was so exhausted but damn my life . It's already a hell now.... I'll go to face those higher ups.

The grade upgradation:
Author's pov:
"You came back alive! What a great thing. Anyways what's your full name?" Satomi was now in the head quarters of those higher ups. Those higher ups sit behind closed curtains and only their voices can be heard.
"Gojo Sa-" She was cut by one of those higher ups again. As if they were trying to test her skills and her patience.
"But your clan disagrees to have someone named as that" even though he was behind the curtains Satomi could tell that he was smiling and trying to make fun of her. As if they didn't expected Satomi to complete this mission and come back alive.
"But Gojo Satoru does" Satomi spoke in a blunt voice and those higher ups go silent for a bit. Then one of them speaks up again.
"You sure know your ways little girl" a laugh could be hear from the other side. And it irritated Satomi so much that she wanted to jump and punch him in the face. She was bleeding and here she was trying to make fun of.
"Why I was called here" Satomi spoke clenching her fist. She was cursing at them in her mind. She knows that these higher ups are none other than some pathetic shits who favours few sorcerers for money and fame.
Another round of silence then she was told that,
" we've decided to promote you to semi special grade from grade one. It's because the curse you fought was a semi special grade and you managed to exorcise it. According to the jujutsu grade system you're promoted as a semi special grade now"
Satomi's eyes widened a bit. She smirked and left the place without bowing to them. She wasn't thankful to them , she was happy and feeling better for her achievement. A semi special grade sorcerer from now on . She's eager to tell it to Satoru who called her at his office. She's still bleeding so she visited Shoko quick before going to Satoru's office.
She then slided the door open in Satoru's office and walked inside. The very plain office with just a table with blue flowers , she doesn't know the name of the flower, his expensive chair in which he's currently sitting and holding a file in his hands. His face lit up when he noticed Satomi but then his smile fade a bit to notice the damage on her uniform. Satomi looked over the boy who was standing across the room. He looked anxious and Satomi's presence made him more nervous. His legs are shaking and he's struggling to say something to Satomi. Satoru then stood up from his chair and pointed at the boy,
"Oi Satomi! Meet Okkutsu Yuta, first year student and a special grade sorcerer" Satoru smiled like always while placing his hand on Yuta's shoulder. He was introducing Satomi to Yuta, "And this is Gojo Satomi. She's second year student and currently a semi special grade sorcerer."
As much as Yuta was nervously smiling and finding ways to break Satomi's cold nature around the room to say something about what he was told to ....the more Satomi's eyes scared him to death.
"A special grade sorcerer? A first year?"
Satomi was taken aback and she didn't noticed that Satoru already knew about her promotion to semi special grade. For her , at that time , the only thing that mattered was Yuta being a special grade before her. She thought she'll get into that position before any other students but now she felt defeated by a first year student who just came here for few weeks and became a special grade. Satomi was feeling proud few mins ago but now she feels defeated and weak. She feels useless.....
"Are you feeling jealous of Yuta, Satomi?"
Satomi shook her head as a no but Satoru knew that she was. He just laughed it off and patt both of Yuta and Satomi's shoulder.
"I already thought that you've heard of Yuta. Oh wait ...yeah I didn't tell you his name and he's a first year...hmm I see. " He stook out his tongue and scratched his head. Satomi was in disbelief. The more she wanted to believe that the nervous looking boy in front of her is a special grade sorcerer the more she got angry and jealous. Then she took a deep sigh and calmed herself down. She was feeling bad and low of herself now. The fact that she was higher than any other students didn't matter to her but being inferior to a person looking like this .....hurted like a sharp knife.
Satoru was maybe enjoying the environment in the room. Yuta's nervous legs shaking and Satomi's cold stare at him. It looked like Satomi will kill him with just her weird dead blue eyes. Satoru chuckled and playfully talked to Satomi,
"Well I've reason to call you here Satomi. Yuta has already gone to two missions with his classmates and he's been practicing to fight with weapons but he's bad at hand to hand combat. I want you to teach him that because no-one's is better than you in that... I'll be busy in missions again so... I'm giving you the responsibility...Satomi."
Satomi closed her eyes and spoke in a nonchalant voice
"Got it". Satoru just chuckled and leaned back on his chair. He was proud for his students. Satomi was trying to keep her cool but in her mind she wanted to drag Yuta to the field and beat his ass to see his true potential. On the other hand Yuta was extremely nervous but he was excited to his new senpai to reach him hand to hand combat. He wanted to talk to Satomi and melt the ice in her stares and behaviour but he was too scared. He was even amused to see her for the first time...like she's so much like his Gojo sensei but in a female form, she is beautiful....but scary .....
Satomi stomped out of the office when she was told to leave and rest to her room. She was about to cross the corner but stopped hearing a weak shuttering voice
"Senpai!" .....it was Yuta. Satomi turned around with her natural blank face and stared at Yuta. Yuta was already shaking a bit and he held the sword in his hands and his hands were shaking too. He tried to smile and spoke
"Looking forward to train with you senpai'...."
Satomi clenched her eyebrows and spoke, "you're a special grade right? Then why you need a semi special grade to train you?"
Yuta was even more anxious now. He fidgeted his fingers and looked down, his voice broke a bit, "I guess I still need to learn ... And I'm not ashamed of it. If you don't want to senpai then-"
"come to the abandoned battle field tomorrow afternoon" Yuta looked up to see Satomi already leaving after saying that. Yuta just stared at her fading figure and smiled a bit. She's so hard to reach but at least....she didn't deny to teach him.
