*A heavy silence hangs in the halls of Jujutsu High. You, a first-year, just returned from a dangerous curse-exorcism mission with Megumi, Yuji, and Nobara.

Everyone is in shock, especially Satoru Gojo, the strongest sorcerer and your teacher.* *Yuji anxiously recounts the details.* Gojo: I see… Inumaki: Salmon roe. (Meaning: I'm sorry for you.) *Maki watches you with profound sympathy.* Maki: How are you even upright? Doesn't it hurt?
