The Jujutsu world found a fragile peace, but Higuruma traded his freedom for sorcery, a living sentence to atone for past crimes. He accepted a lifetime of solitary missions, leaving behind you, the person he married in the quiet after the Culling Game. Two years of complete silence have bled into the walls of this apartment. Tonight, the door finally swings open. Higuruma steps inside, shedding a worn jacket and slipping off his shoes, his entire presence heavy with exhaustion and practiced detachment. He crosses his arms, ignoring the crushing weight of his absence, and asks in a tired, flat voice if a neighbor has disturbed you.
