Chapter 20 Who is more important than you?

"Mio, do you like Wu?"

This sentence silenced the dark, damp and beautiful female ghost.

Kagura Mio froze there on the spot, and said "Eeh eh eh" several times. She realized that Geto Suguru was not joking but asking the question seriously, and was silent for a moment.

"What does Jay think?" she asked back.

Geto Suguru didn't respond: "Is this how Mio feels?"

"..." Kagura Mio took a deep breath.

This feeling is really special, and it’s not a good one.

She had never tried to confess to anyone other than Gojo Satoru, but Geto Suguru was her classmate, and to some extent, both she and Gojo Satoru trusted him.

Why.

The girl leaned back helplessly, her whole body against the wall, her right hand on her eyes, her tone a little melancholy: "Jie, what do you think love is?" Geto

Suguru, a diamond high school boy who has never been in love: "······Maybe it's the feeling that I feel happy when I see her, and I want to make her happy all the time, and make her laugh all the time? It will be very special, I can't help laughing or something······?"

All the anime he watched said this······

"For me, liking someone is a luxury." Kagura Mio chose her words carefully, her tone a little helpless.

"It's hard for me to fall in love with someone. I don't understand what love is, I don't understand what liking is. It's hard for me to even like myself, let alone someone."

Kagura Mio thought about herself in her mind. She was in danger countless times, but thinking about the waka poems taught her by Gojo Satoru always calmed her down.

“But I can’t imagine my life without Gojo Satoru.” She gently put down her hand and cast her eyes toward the wisteria flowers that were climbing up the wall.

The wisteria flower was so stubborn, so fearless, and capable of climbing to the top, using vitality and courage that she did not have.

"For me, if there was no Gojo Satoru in my life, I would probably feel like I had lost my own technique, that feeling."

Kagura Mio looked at her hands.

The thin calluses from fighting and training in handling weapons were the scars from countless wear and tear.

"You only have cursed power but no techniques?" A faint smile appeared on Xia Yujie's lips, and he sighed softly, with a hint of unconscious ease in his tone.

"That's good."

They'll be fine, and that's enough.

Kagura Mio glared at him: "Hey, how can you do this without the ritual?"

Suguru Geto waved his hands and apologized, then asked: "Mio, I have one last question."

Kagura Mio looked up lazily: "Go ahead." She

is still as queen-like as when we first met. Xia Yujie thought.

“If it were you, would you be willing to be bound by others?”

“······”

Why would this be the question?

"Do you men like to tie people up?" Kagura Mio asked Geto Suguru with a frown.

Gojo Satoru also said something like this...

"No, that's not what I meant." Realizing that she was beginning to doubt her character, Geto Suguru scratched his head, "I'm not that kind of person like Satoru. I just simply want to know, if I were to make a contract using bondage, would you be willing?"

"..." Kagura Mio was silent for a moment, then said:

"You also know that my technique is difficult. The fact that I bind people has a great impact on the adaptation of my technique, so I won't easily bind people." "

In a way, binding is a kind of constraint, a contract between two sorcerers. But binding can only bind people who want to live. For people who are determined to die, this kind of thing is probably useless, right?"

Kagura Mio looked at Geto Suguru and said word by word: "In the words of that idiot, 'I only save people who are ready to be saved.'"

"Is that so... That's great. You have to find a reason to be saved, Mio."

"Why are you still saying this?" Gojo Satoru frowned as he sat on Kagura Mio's chair, playing with Kagura Mio's newly bought lipstick in his hand.

He held the lipstick and measured it on his lips, looked at himself in the mirror again and again, blinked his pretty kitten eyes like a spoiled child, and stared at Kagura Mio aggrievedly: "Can you stop muttering about that squinty-eyed girl with weird bangs all day long? When did you say something so sad to me? I'm really jealous!"

Kagura Mio pinched Gojo Satoru's face and said half-perfunctorily and half-coaxingly: "Who is more important than you?"

Gojo Satoru just laughed, and saw Kagura Mio immediately pulled it back to Geto Suguru the next second: "I said, I feel that he is really not right. But this is all I can do--"

Geto Suguru has his own destiny.

Whether it is Kagura Mio or Gojo Satoru, even though they are the best comrades, they are also others in Geto Suguru's life. Geto Suguru is the one who controls his own destiny, and neither she nor Gojo Satoru can stop someone who wants to leave.

However, perhaps their attitude can let Geto Suguru know that he can still turn back.

After hearing what Kagura Mio said, Gojo Satoru was silent for a moment, and the hand holding the lipstick stiffened slightly.

Kagura Mio glanced at Gojo Satoru and knew that he was feeling unhappy.

In fact, Gojo Satoru can be considered an avoidant type. After all, he... finds it quite difficult to speak when it comes to real interpersonal relationships.

The reason why Gojo Satoru can respond to Kagura Mio with such enthusiasm is simply because he has already bound himself and Kagura Mio together. In his heart, they are one and the same.

"······"

In silence, Kagura Mio stepped forward, gently hit the back of Gojo Satoru's hand with her left hand, and took the new lipstick from his hand.

She unscrewed the lipstick cap and applied lipstick on herself in front of the mirror.

Gojo Satoru stood by the door frame, staring at the girl in the mirror who was carefully applying lipstick. He didn't notice how ambiguous the atmosphere was at the moment. He just asked instinctively, "What does this lipstick taste like? Will it taste weird?"

Kagura Mio's fingers, which were applying lipstick, paused.

She turned around and looked at Gojo Satoru in a bit of surprise, and found that the boy also noticed the ambiguity of her words. His face turned a little red, and he scratched his hair: "I didn't mean that, it's just--"

"Then do you want to try it?"

Seeing his shy look, Kagura Mio suddenly had the idea of ​​teasing him. She slowly applied the lipstick, then turned around, folded her hands on her chest, and looked at him lazily.

"I've applied it, do you want to try it?"

Gojo Satoru: "?!"

His pupils dilated.

Gojo Satoru was completely stunned as he had never expected the girl to speak to him like that.

He thought about tying her up, and thought about them being tied together forever, but he had never thought about what Kagura Mio's lips tasted like...

Could he think like that...

His eyes couldn't help but stay on Kagura Mio's lips.

The girl had just put on lipstick, her lips were full and bright, the gentle rose color looked beautiful and bright, and she looked like a gentle beauty who walked out of a painting.

But she is definitely not that gentle.

He knew that once he got close to her, once he kissed her, he would find out that

she was a poisonous flower, a mermaid who could capture people's hearts, and a god who could control everything.

"······"

Looking at the boy in front of her, her whole body turned red from head to toe, and her cute and beautiful cat eyes drooped slightly. She looked like a kitten that was kissed to the point of being at a loss.

How cute, Satoru.

Just like when I was a kid.

In fact, Gojo Satoru called her "Mio Mio" from the beginning. Later, one time he heard his elders also call her "Mio Mio", and he was so angry that his fur stood on end and he was in a bad mood until Kagura Mio pulled his sleeve and asked him teasingly: "Is Satoru jealous?"

The young six-eyed Goddess didn't know her own feelings yet. She blushed when she suddenly said that. She glared at Kagura Mio with a red face: "What nonsense are you talking about."

"Then I will let everyone call me Mio Mio."

"Hey, how can you."

"Then only Satoru can call me Mio Mio." Kagura Mio, who was addicted to teasing cats, continued to tease him, "But Satoru is very cute."

The white-haired little boy at that time still had baby fat on his cheeks, his eyes were big and bright, and the whole person looked white and tender, as cute as a glutinous rice dumpling.

Thinking of this, Kagura Mio curled up the corners of her mouth into a smile and took a step forward.

Gojo Satoru was startled and stepped back.

Then he was about to speak shyly, and saw the girl throwing something at him.

Gojo Satoru caught it instinctively and realized it was the lipstick.

"Don't you want to try it?" Kagura Mio walked past him, then took a half step back and said to him teasingly, "Satoru will know if you try it yourself."

She walked out of the bathroom while smiling, but she didn't expect that her wrist was firmly grasped by someone.

Her puzzled eyes met Gojo Satoru's eyes.

The six eyes that were able to see through everything finally understood the girl in front of him at this moment.

Gojo Satoru stared at Kagura Mio and said word by word: "Mio, what if we separate?"

His tone was unhurried, but with unquestionable firmness.

Realizing that he was serious, Kagura Mio blinked lightly, put away the smile on her face, and subconsciously answered in a roundabout way: "I never thought about breaking up with you, because it's a habit."

"Apart from habit?"

"······"

Kagura Mio was speechless for a moment.

Under Gojo Satoru's serious and focused gaze, Kagura Mio suddenly felt that she was not used to the feeling of being "questioned" - she had always been the one in control, but this time Gojo Satoru suddenly became serious.

What if Gojo Satoru is out of control?

What if he wants to transcend her cognition? really.

Five thoughts of enlightenment.

The feeling of insecurity and instability that had been lurking around was never an illusion.

He felt as if he had lost the initiative.

In his world, Gojo Satoru and Kagura Mio are bound together, and she is his. But does Kagura Mio really think so? Was he really not following Kagura Mio's rules without realizing it?

This feeling really wasn't good at all, because -

if Kagura Mio wanted to leave, he would have no bargaining chip to keep her.

Moreover, she seemed to be avoiding his emotions, and he felt instinctively uncomfortable.

His instinct had always told him that Kagura Mio belonged to him, but he suddenly began to be afraid - was he the one who was more deeply trapped?

Kagura Mio frowned, not knowing what Gojo Satoru was thinking, and subconsciously tried to break free, but was held down by the person in front of her with one hand, and was pushed against the wall. Gojo Satoru used his body to circle an area, leaving her no room to move, and stared down at her condescendingly.

He frowned slightly, with a tone of unquestionable doubt, "Mio Mio, do you like--"

"Ding-ding-ding-ding, I'm the strongest sorcerer Gojo Satoru, hehehe--"

A rather devilish phone ringtone rang.

Gojo Satoru let out a somewhat irritated "ha" and answered the phone angrily with a very bad tone: "You'd better have something serious to say--" interrupting his emotional exchange with Mio Mio!

Ye Moth Zhengdao's calm voice came from the receiver:

"Jie has defected."
