As the two, eyes blurry, reached out to knock on the Grand Elder's door, many eyes within the mansion were already fixed on them.
"They're up so early to train with the Grand Elder? The young master and young lady are truly diligent..."
"Hmph, what's that? If I had their talent, I'd also cultivate diligently."
"Alright, alright, stop talking. It's fine for us to whisper among ourselves, but don't let the adults hear, or we'll get a beating."
The Gojo Family's internal affairs were not harmonious; of course, this was largely true for any slightly larger Jujutsu Sorcerer family.
Jujutsu talent was everything.
Even those born into Jujutsu Sorcerer families weren't guaranteed to have the talent for cultivating Jujutsu. The larger the Jujutsu Sorcerer family, the more rigid the class distinctions.
In this regard, the Zen'in Family, one of the three great Jujutsu Sorcerer families, was even more extreme.
Those who didn't awaken a Cursed Technique became servants in the family, while males who awakened a Cursed Technique but whose talent wasn't considered high stayed to work in the family, and females became tools for marriage alliances.
The Gojo Family wasn't quite like that, but it was only relatively better.
Chinatsu wasn't bothered by the gazes from within the family, because they actually held no malice, merely venting their dissatisfaction with fate.
In this world where eighty percent of a Jujutsu Sorcerer's strength depends on talent, being in a Jujutsu Sorcerer family without talent was truly a cruel fate.
This was a problem of the family's feudal system, and also a problem of the Jujutsu World's corruption. Regardless, it wasn't something Chinatsu should be considering right now.
Only when Chinatsu and Gojo Satoru fully developed and became Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerers would they have enough power to seriously consider and try to change things.
All in all, she still had to... ha~
Chinatsu couldn't help but let out another breath, her lips moving. Whether in her previous life or this one, she was never used to waking up early.
If not for the fear that Gojo Satoru would get up early alone to study and surpass her, then in the future turn around and force her to call him "Brother~," Chinatsu would absolutely not force herself to wake up early.
After some waiting, the door they stood before slowly opened from the inside, and out walked a short, plump old man. This person was the Grand Elder of the Gojo Family.
"You two little ones, come in quickly."
The Grand Elder smiled kindly, ushering the two into his room. Although the Cursed Technique he awakened was not the Limitless, he was a master of theory, more than capable of teaching the two some basic knowledge at this stage.
Limitless.
This is the Cursed Technique passed down through generations of the Gojo Family, its principle similar to Achilles' paradox of "a man racing a tortoise and never catching it."
Based on this Cursed Technique, various derivative abilities can be developed, such as—
[Limitless Defense]: Anything approaching the Cursed Technique user will be infinitely slowed down, forever unable to truly make physical contact with the Cursed Technique user's body.
[Blue]: The power of attraction, manifesting as a giant, intensely sucking miniature black hole created out of thin air, attracting everything around it. It can also be actively manipulated to direct the attractive force in one direction.
[Red]: The power of repulsion, manifesting as a red projectile of impact force created out of thin air, emitting a powerful shockwave in a specified direction like a miniature supernova explosion.
[Purple]: Combining the two aforementioned offensive techniques, creating a hypothetical substance that does not exist in this world, annihilating everything within its attack path with pure power.
Of the above techniques, the two currently only know the defense.
The Grand Elder held a pointer, tapping the blackboard, meticulously explaining the relationship between Cursed Energy and Cursed Techniques to the two, as well as points to note during the cultivation of the Limitless.
Although Chinatsu was listening very attentively, this teaching style was too similar to her English teacher's lectures in her previous life. Chinatsu was already sleepy, and listening to this made her even sleepier.
Chinatsu raised her hands and patted her cheeks, forcing herself to perk up, but the effect was not good. It wasn't until she slowly turned her head to look at Gojo Satoru beside her, who was also fighting off sleepiness but was already listening and attempting the techniques, that Chinatsu's spirits instantly shot up with a "Whoosh!"
Gojo Satoru... you!
Chinatsu, invigorated, also began to listen and attempt the experiment with "Blue."
Seeing the two in such a state, the Gojo Family Elder immediately showed a relieved smile.
To be honest, mastering Limitless Defense before the age of six already made him very satisfied. Initially, some within the family were concerned about the twin issue, fearing that the twins would split their talent, making even the Six Eyes User mediocre.
But looking now... absolutely no problem!
He had lived for so long and had seen many ordinary geniuses. Most of these geniuses would become arrogant due to their talent, spending time on showing off and frivolous matters, thus wasting their own talent.
Second Grade Jujutsu Sorcerer, or even Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer?
But at most, that was the extent... The Grand Elder smiled as he looked at the two in front of him. He suddenly extended a finger, shifting the topic from cultivation to another area.
"Although you are only six years old now, you cannot be compared to ordinary children of the same age.
Originally, the Six Eyes User would be the sole candidate for the next head of the family, but since both of you possess the Six Eyes, I want to ask you, which of you has the desire to become the family head, or do both of you?"
The future head of the Gojo Family!
The question the Grand Elder posed was also what everyone in the Gojo Family was concerned about.
If there was only one Six Eyes User, there would be no dispute over who the next family head would be. But miraculously, this era had produced two Six Eyes Users.
Behind the seemingly peaceful facade of the Gojo Family, it had actually been divided into two factions supporting Gojo Satoru and Chinatsu, with undercurrents stirring.
Listening to the Grand Elder, the two, who had been immersed in trying to cultivate "Blue," couldn't help but snap back to reality. Almost without hesitation, they both extended a finger, pointing at each other to their left and right.
Chinatsu pointed at Gojo Satoru.
Gojo Satoru pointed at Chinatsu.
And regarding the fact that both extended fingers and pointed at each other, both wore expressions that said, "I knew it..." Then they turned back and continued their "Blue" experiment.
The Grand Elder awkwardly pulled out a rag and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
These two little brats, that's the position of family head, the head of the Gojo Family! How can you make it seem like some kind of burden...?
