"Has the Rainbow Dragon recovered? If it has, call it out so I can see."
As soon as dawn broke, Satoru pushed open Suguru's door.
A flying pillow greeted Satoru.
"Satoru, you should knock before entering someone else's room."
"Haha, we're both guys, don't be shy."
The pillow was blocked by Limitless and returned harmlessly.
"That's basic etiquette."
Picking up the pillow and placing it back on the bed, Suguru got up.
"Hmm, while Satoru wins in terms of face, Suguru is definitely superior in terms of physique," Eichi commented, following behind Satoru.
Satoru was tall and his muscles were well-proportioned and toned, but Suguru was a bit more burly.
Of course, neither could compare to Toji. His physique was such that even men could not help but admire it.
"Is there something wrong with your eyes? I am clearly superior."
"No, no, no, look closely. While your abs are on par, Suguru's pectoral and back muscles are clearly larger, aren't they?"
Eichi immediately pointed at Suguru.
"It is not like we are girls. Being big is not useful."
###
Suguru raised his hand, and a turtle-like Cursed Spirit appeared before him, sending a massive jet of water that directly flushed the two out of the room.
The world fell silent.
Completely awake, Suguru grabbed his clothes and went into the bathroom to wash up and change.
Soon, the few who had changed their clothes gathered again.
"Slurp."
Suguru slurped a mouthful of soba noodles.
Eichi chose a bowl of ramen for breakfast.
Satoru had high-sugar bread and soda.
Except for Satoru's custom-made bread, Suguru's and Eichi's noodles were bought from a convenience store in the city.
The three were not staying in a hotel these past few days, but in a two-story wooden house specifically for travelers.
Many such buildings are found by the sea. In summer, the owner opens them to entertain tourists, and in winter, they lock up and go home to do other business.
In recent days, due to the appearance of the Rainbow Dragon, the nearby beach had been temporarily closed, with the explanation that dangerous fish were passing through, causing a temporary closure for a few days.
The locals were mentally prepared for this, as the order had come from north to south, and several places had already temporarily closed before them, but without exception, the blockade would be lifted after a few days.
They even had the leisure to speculate what kind of fish could swim so close and be taken so seriously by the authorities.
Last night, Suguru had already submitted the mission completion report, and today, after Jujutsu Headquarters personnel confirmed the situation, everything would return to normal.
"Oh, this is nice, very cool."
After the Rainbow Dragon was released, Satoru took a big leap and stood on its head.
"So cold."
He reached out and touched the Rainbow Dragon's scales, which felt cold and smooth to the touch.
He tapped it with his finger, and it made a sound like iron and stone.
"Suguru, make it fly quickly."
After touching it, Satoru grabbed the Rainbow Dragon's two horns with both hands, making a gesture as if riding a motorcycle.
The Rainbow Dragon snorted loudly from its nostrils.
Ever since that little thing jumped on its head, the Rainbow Dragon had wanted to take a bite out of him, and now it wanted to even more.
But it could not. Its master would not allow it.
"Satoru, it is just a Dragon, do not get too excited," Suguru said helplessly from the side.
Pretend, keep pretending. Who was it last night who secretly summoned the Rainbow Dragon and struck all sorts of poses?
Eichi's Black Divine Dog liked to wander out at night, and due to the Assassin chess piece, its stealth was extremely strong. Last night, when Black Divine Dog was out wandering, it happened to run into Suguru acting crazy.
Unsure of the situation, Black Divine Dog chose to ask Eichi.
Then Eichi had Black Divine Dog carry a camera and film all of Suguru's actions.
Dragon God Prince, White Dragon Emperor... it seems even Suguru, who speaks of righteousness and great causes, cannot escape Chunibyo Syndrome.
This matter cannot be settled without a hot pot meal.
"Eichi, do you want to try too?"
Suguru looked at Eichi with a gentle smile and a benevolent expression.
He is showing off. This is definitely showing off.
"Yes."
Eichi agreed without a moment's hesitation.
The poker face he had developed from being pranked by his roommates in college appeared.
Seeing that Eichi did not show an excited expression, Suguru was a bit disappointed.
If Eichi had been very excited, he could have taken the opportunity to tease him.
Was Eichi not excited?
No, Eichi was very excited, extremely excited.
Eichi was now wondering if he could also create a Dragon.
The main body could use the Great Serpent, the horns could be from Round Deer, ox ears were available, Piercing Ox's would do, eagle claws could be from Nue, the name itself contains "eagle," so using it as an eagle is correct, there was no lion's nose, but a tiger's nose should work, lion-tiger, lion-tiger, right? Rabbit eyes were also available, Rabbit Escape, but the fusion problem of Rabbit Escape needed to be solved. For some reason, this thing always failed to fuse. A camel's head was a bit troublesome, perhaps use the Divine Dogs'?
Thinking, Eichi's gaze fell on Black Divine Dog.
Black Divine Dog instantly felt a chill down its spine, looked left and right, found no danger, and then lay down again to doze off.
Horse mane, horse mane.
The Ten Shadows Technique did not have a horse either.
Eichi again looked at Black Divine Dog.
After evolving, Black Divine Dog's fur was quite fluffy. It should be fine to make a horse mane, right?
Just about to fall asleep, Black Divine Dog shivered, got up, and moved to another spot to sleep.
That spot just now was not good. It kept blowing cold wind.
Soon it was Eichi's turn to ride the Dragon. Satoru was directly pulled down by Suguru.
Suguru dragged Satoru, who was shouting "I want more," off the Dragon, and Eichi jumped on without hesitation.
"Do you want to take some photos?"
After flying a few circles while standing on the Rainbow Dragon, Eichi jumped down, feeling satisfied.
"Cameras cannot capture Cursed Spirits," Suguru reminded him from the side.
"It is fine, mine can."
As he spoke, White Divine Dog came before them, carrying a travel bag in its mouth.
Patting White Divine Dog's head, Eichi took out a black camera from the bag.
Click.
"Look."
A photo was taken, and Eichi handed the camera to Suguru.
"Oh, it really captured it."
"This lens was made by the lab. It is considered portable experimental equipment."
Normal cameras and observation equipment could not observe Cursed Spirits, which caused great trouble for the professors in the lab.
Later, they simply decided to first solve the problem of observing Cursed Spirits, and then a group of people, after securing the Cursed Spirits, all went to study the eyes Eichi had given them.
The glasses that could see Cursed Spirits were, strictly speaking, a low-grade cursed tool. After those old professors figured out the method for making the lenses, they produced a batch of special lenses to aid their experiments.
Upon learning this, Eichi also requested a few.
"Come on, strike a pose. 1, 2, 3, cheese."
In the picture, Suguru had one hand in his pocket, his unbound hair fluttering in the wind, gazing at the sky at a 45-degree angle with a melancholic look. Beside him, the Rainbow Dragon spiraled upwards from behind him, passed over his head, then circled down, resting its head by his hand.
So handsome.
"Oh, oh, this is interesting."
Satoru, realizing it was fun, leaned closer to Eichi.
"Suguru, make your expression fiercer, Rainbow Dragon, move back a bit."
Click, a photo of Suguru with a sinister expression and the Rainbow Dragon rising behind him was captured.
"Again, again, this time take mine."
Satoru shoved the camera to Eichi, then squeezed Suguru aside.
"Hey Eichi, call out Qiongqi too."
Eichi understood.
Qiongqi emerged from the shadow, looking at Eichi with a face full of question marks.
Click.
Its cute, tiger-like appearance made Eichi unable to resist pressing the shutter.
Then Qiongqi stood behind Suguru, and the Rainbow Dragon floated behind Satoru. A photo was taken of the two men standing opposite each other, with the Dragon and Tiger facing each other in the air.
They seemed to have opened the door to a new world. One Shikigami and Cursed Spirit after another were summoned, and the three became more and more enthusiastic with each shot.
Later, when they could not find suitable Cursed Spirits, Suguru directly called out a Special Grade Cursed Spirit and had it transform on the spot.
This "chameleon demon" service made them even more excited.
When the Assistant Supervisor from Jujutsu Headquarters came to confirm the Rainbow Dragon's situation, he saw a trio with ferocious faces, surrounded by countless terrifying Cursed Spirits as if from Hell.
'Mom, I want to go home.'
The Assistant Supervisor, trembling and teary-eyed, thought in his heart.
