June 18, 2000. Sunny, temperature 28°C, wind force 3. Suitable for outdoor sports. Take precautions against sunburn.
Kyoto, the Zenin family estate.
The newly appointed head of the Zenin clan, Zenin Naobito, took a sip of "Juyondai" sake, a sake renowned for its entirely handcrafted brewing and high quality. Its products have a rich flavor and a strong fruity aroma, making them suitable for those who appreciate high-quality sake.
He let out a hiccup, his body trembled slightly, and his cheeks flushed.
"Is this the brat? Which generation of the collateral line is he? We just discovered him to be a talented sorcerer a few days ago? What kind of cursed technique does he possess?"
Looking at Zenin Naobito, whose speech was somewhat unclear, Zenin Ogi frowned, a barely perceptible hint of resentment flashing in his eyes.
This position should have been his! If it weren't for those two useless guys who dragged him down, how could he have lost to this drunkard!

But out of pride, he swallowed his anger and said to the man in front of him:
"Zenin Kiyoshi, the twenty-seventh generation of a collateral branch, has always lived in other countries. He recently came to Tokyo for tourism and encountered a Grade 2 cursed spirit. His parents are dead, and the little ghost who survived is named Zenin Kiyoshi. He was saved by Gojo Satoru from the Gojo family (Six Eyes)."
They originally planned to send him back directly, but later discovered he was also a sorcerer, though his innate cursed energy wasn't strong, so he probably wouldn't amount to much. However, he was still better than those useless sorcerers who weren't even sorcerers, so they kept him.
At this point, Zenin Ogi raised an eyebrow slightly, as if he were thinking of a face that he found somewhat repulsive.
Although his movements were very discreet, they were all seen by the drunken Zenin Naobito.
But he didn't say anything. He just took another big gulp of wine, and a few drops of clear liquid dripped from the corner of his mouth, which was covered with stubble, onto Zenin Kiyoshi's information sheet.
"Since he was saved by that brat Gojo Satoru, his life naturally belongs to him. The Zenin family doesn't owe any other family a favor."
That brat Gojo Satoru is 12 years old now, right? Recently, the Gojo family has been planning to send him directly to Tokyo Jujutsu High for foster care, right?
So, let's send that brat Kiyoshi from the Zenin family to Zenin Toji's place to take care of him for a while. Anyway, that guy is leaving soon, so let him take care of the new guy. It'll also leave him with some memories of home.
As for that brat, he'll be sent to Tokyo Jujutsu High at the end of this month to repay Gojo Satoru's favor. After graduation, he can return to serve the family!
A faint taste of sake flowed from the mouth of Zenin Naobito, and in his drunken state, he sealed the fate of Zenin Kiyoshi.
"Zenin Toji doesn't even have any techniques! He's... not suitable for mentoring newcomers! What you're doing is simply..."

Before Zenin Ogi could finish speaking, Zenin Naobito, with his eyes closed, exhaled a strong odor of sake, the smell of which made one's brow furrow slightly.
"This is the clan chief's order!"
Upon hearing this, Zenin Ogi tugged at the fan, glanced at the completely drunk Zenin Naobito with an unfriendly expression, and left without saying anything.
Hearing the heavy, somewhat hurried and disrespectful footsteps leave, Zenin Naobito slightly opened his eyes, glanced at the documents on the table that were half-soaked with wine, and sighed.
The Zenin family is not a good place...
Meanwhile, in Zenin Toji's courtyard, Zenin Kiyoshi was led to the door of this somewhat secluded room by a man with a gloomy face. Smelling the somewhat unpleasant smell inside, he was still a little dazed for a moment.
Having transmigrated into this corpse in just one day, so many changes have occurred, and now he has even been sent to the Zenin family. This makes Zenin Kiyoshi feel a bit of a twist of fate.
Every day, I intensely read and debated on Tieba, diligently replying to posts like "Genius Originium," "Challenger," "Huh? I'm fighting Sukuna?" and "We are pure love," but I fell asleep and ended up in a time warp. Who could have imagined such an ending?
I remember when I first transmigrated, a monster with two faces and a mouth full of blood was about to swallow me, but just as it opened its mouth, a silver-haired boy in sunglasses ripped the monster's head off.
Then he looked at Zenin Kiyoshi with a smile and asked with a hint of teasing:
"Hey~ Are you alright?"
When he asked these questions, Gojo Satoru lowered his head slightly, his sunglasses drooping a little, revealing his beautiful eyes, as clear as the sky.
Zenin Kiyoshi looked at Gojo Satoru in front of him. Although he was still immersed in the huge shock of death and transmigration, he instinctively thanked Gojo Satoru.
Upon hearing this, Gojo Satoru's lips curled up slightly, and he shook his head at Zenin Kiyoshi. His silver-white hair shimmered in the sunlight, like a reed bed.
"You're one of the rare guys who actually says thank you to me. Here, this is a Coke I just bought. It's ice cold, I haven't had it yet."
Gojo Satoru tossed a can of Coke over to Zenin Kiyoshi, who instinctively caught it. The can still had a few condensed dewdrops on it, and it felt a little cold in his hand.
After that, before Zenin Kiyoshi could say anything, Gojo Satoru had already left without leaving a trace, like wisps of cloud swept away by a gentle breeze.
At that very moment, a melodious voice echoed in Zenin Kiyoshi's mind:
"Gojo Satoru's favorability +20, current favorability: 20/100 (slightly favorable)."
It has been detected that Gojou's favorability has reached 20%, unlocking a 10% ability bonus for the target character!
Current bonuses: Limitless 10%, Six Eyes 10%, total cursed energy 10%
Note: For every 20 points increase in a character's favorability, the next stage of boost will be unlocked. The preview bonus for the next stage is 30%.
This system is dedicated to collecting favorability points, striving to create a succubus physique for you.
Although the subsequent notes left Zenin Kiyoshi with a question mark, feeling that unprecedented surge of power, Zenin Kiyoshi still felt somewhat unreal.
But... can just saying thank you really increase favorability by so much?
What did the people who saved Gojo Satoru before him call him? A monster?
Just as Zenin Kiyoshi was lost in thought, a somewhat impatient and lazy voice came from inside:
"Only trash can live in a place as filthy as mine. Sending a sorcerer here? The old man's brain has been ruined by alcohol, and are you ruined too? This place is only suitable for trash like me, so don't bother me."
Hearing that voice, Zenin Jinichi's face showed a hint of disgust. He shoved Zenin Kiyoshi and then said:
"You have no right to refuse the old man's orders. This guy is the same type as Mai, which is basically useless..."
Before Zenin Kiyoshi could finish speaking, Zenin Toji had already appeared very close to them without either of them noticing.
At this moment, Zenin Toji was less than 20 centimeters away from his older brother, and he could even hear the other's slightly faster heartbeat.
The next moment, he grabbed Zenin Kiyoshi's collar and pulled him behind him, then glanced at Zenin Jinichi, whose face was somewhat dark, and said in a somewhat indifferent tone:
"I'll take this job for the old man's sake, but the rest of the stuff should go out. I don't welcome anyone here."
