  Dad’s forcing Ren into the trials today. I can’t fucking believe it.

  I tried everything. But no matter what I tried, he overrode everything. I even went to Megumi Fushiguro, hoping he could talk Dad out of sending his daughter towards certain death. If Dad would listen to anyone it’s Fushiguro, he took part in the Culling Game, he helped defeat of Ryomen Sukuna. He’s respected throughout the sorcerer world. But Dad wouldn’t listen to anyone.

  I’m sorry, Ren. I really did try everything in my power to get you out of this death sentence.

  Please use your head. Go for Zone Three like the assessment said. You need to live. I don’t know if I can survive without Mum and you.

  I just hope she doesn’t use her maximum technique. They’d rank her as special grade as soon as they saw that sort of destructive power, and special grades never get to stay safe.

  If When she survives these tests. I’m sticking close. I’ll take extra missions, do extra sweeps in the dead zones so Dad can’t assign her to them. Dad said she has to survive the trials, not that she has to take missions, and if that means that she stays in the walls of Jujutsu High but she’s alive then so be it.

  I need to find someone to watch her when I can’t. Fushiguro will, but his workload is insane. Maybe Shoko? She might be in her sixties, but she’s one of the toughest sorcerers I’ve ever met.

  She’d do it. For Akari’s daughter.
