"What, what did you do with him?" a young blondie asked
"We sealed him in another environment; don't worry he is not dead"
"Give that creature back to us"
"And why on earth would we do that? We were the one who caught it" Yuji said, nagging the agents
"It wasn't a request" the black headed agent said after shooting on them, of course the bullet was stopped right away thanks to Nobara's powers
"You never learn, do you?" Kugisaki responded to the annoyed grumpy shooter
"Since when have I allowed anyone to shoot without my orders?" Sylvia asked in a cold composed tone
"We are sorry about that but…" the shooter explained before being interrupted
"The only logical reason that you'll be able to come up with would be that you are not willing to take the necessary risks to interrogate those three am I right?" Sherwood's colleagues couldn't utter a word to convince her otherwise.
"Then if that's the case I'll be the only one conducting the interrogation, you can remain outside" Sylvia added
A sentiment of relief and shame spread within their veins, before leaving the room
"Explain yourselves, where did you come from and what is the story behind this monster thing" she asked as she rested the side of her head on the palm of her right hand with her index taping on her temple.
"For starters I guess that this agent Andrew of yours told you about the fact that we came from another world"
"And it is the only information that we got beside the fact that you are considered as great soldiers for the enemy's army"
"Soldiers?" Kugisaki asked before sitting back on her chair
"That is just in case the main target never decides to come here"
"Now I got it" Fushiguro whispered
"Did the quiet boy figured something out?" she asked perplexed
"Our master, used to be one of the most powerful wizard of our time, he was also considered as one of the reasons why the balance between the jujutsu world and the world of mortals is still unbroken, but…." Fushiguro
"Used to? Do I have to understand that he is dead?" Sylvia added as she was closing her eyes.
"Yes, he is no longer with us" he confirmed coldly
"Then why in the world do those people want you, for christ sake?" she sighed
"The real question would be, why in the world would they want Gojo to manipulate their army of curses? It is not like he would have complied to it with no problem" Nobara added
"Tell me, how did he die?"
"He got killed by the king of curses an old very powerful curse that used to possess me" Yuji explained
"Is that why you have tattoos showing up like that?"
"Yes, because I used to be the host of that curse, I was able to absorb a part of his powers"
"How is it that you are not the host anymore?"
"I let him escape" Yuji confirmed
"I freed him to save my sister" Megumi interrupted, with a mixed note of his usual annoyance and a hint of anger in his voice. Silence could have taken place at that time, but the young man didn't allow it, the ex-leader of the Zenin clan saw it as factual
"Other questions?", he added
"What is cursed energy? I understand that it fuels your powers and is the reason for your special abilities but how does this work? Are you born with it or do you acquire it?"
"Well cursed energy is a type of energy that you are either born with or acquire by being possessed by a curse, in other cases you can use tools and objects fueled by that cursed energy if you are born without it, and of course if you are not born with it you can't see curses or anything like that. Which makes me wonder how you and your colleagues could see them"
"Well, that could be, because of some special glasses like you mentioned, but when it comes to others, I am not sure" Sylvia answered
"For others there are some slight exceptions, you see in a moment of extreme stress, panic and distress, normal human beings are perfectly capable to see them for a certain amount of time, but you were so calm and I don't believe that those glasses is the reason why you can see them, cause I see in you as much cursed energy as I see in us"
