Out Of Control
This might be the weirdest day of my life,’ Nobara thought as it has been just that…
Where does she even start to explain this?
‘It all happened because that stupid Sensei got sealed,’
31 October 2018. Shibuya, Tokyo.
On this day, a sinister group of curse users and cursed spirits launched a coordinated attack on Shibuya, their objective was to seal away the strongest Sorcerer who also happened to be Nobara’s Teacher, Gojo Satoru.
And they succeeded at their original goal by doing just that, while massacring a lot of civilians in the process.
‘And then that happened,’ Nobara remembered that while fighting with the cursed spirit Mahito he tricked her and caught her by surprise with his cursed technique.
‘That is how I got this hole in my beautiful face!! The next time I see that patch face I am going to make sure he has 50, No! A 100 holes in his face!!’ Nobara thought as she was being carried by someone she didn’t know, she was conscious and not at the same time.
‘I can’t move, no signs of breathing I don’t even know how I can think at this point, hmm must be something this guy did, he must be taking me to the medics on the site at the moment,’ Nobara thought as it felt like he stopped the damage from Mahito from going further.
And as she had thought the guy was taking her to the medics even then Nobara had little hope for herself considering the type of damage Mahito did, her chances weren’t good that is why……
‘What the hell? I just came to Tokyo and couldn’t even enjoy it fully why is this happening? Not to mention I didn’t even get a boyfriend and all of my time was spent hunting the damn curses, Like what the hell?!’ Nobara shouted in anger but these words weren’t coming out of her mouth.
To her, the high odds of her death weren’t the main issue, for Nobara…
‘I will not give up, I’ll eat that damn conveyer belt sushi, you hear?!!!! And I will get a hot boyfriend then live a life of luxury that I deserve, no one is taking that away from me not even God, Do ya underst-’
“-and!!!!!” At that point, Nobara was shocked since she heard her own voice as she got control of her body.
“Did I wake myself up like that? Am I awesome or what?” Nobara grinned but she soon noticed something that made that grin disappear.
“He isn’t moving and it appears like he is frozen in time, weird…” This is what Nobara understood after a minute of looking around, it wasn’t just this guy even some of the humans who were hiding in the buildings nearby were frozen in place.
“And then there is that door, and if the time is frozen for these people and not me, could it also be the same for the cursed spirits?” Thinking that Nobara flashed an evil smirk.
“Time to deliver on my promise,” With that she started to run towards the Dogenzaka’s subway entrance, or so was the plan but…
“Every time I am about 300 meters away from this place I get sent back here like it is teleportation,” Nobara had tried to run in all directions but the result was the same, the only place she hadn’t been to yet is the door and looking at it made her feel like…
“What type of blatant scam is that? Do they think I am a country bumpkin or something?!” Nobara was pissed because since arriving in Tokyo no one has tried to scam her this badly.
‘I guess I can do nothing but go in and look, maybe this door is the doing of the person who is responsible for this time-stop phenomenon,’ Nobara thought as she grasped her hammer firmly and pushed the door open.
And this was her first meeting with Adam, which currently led to...
“So, are you the one who cast this domain?” Nobara asked sitting down on the couch.
“Hmm? What do you mean?” Adam asked as he poured some tea.
“I mean the time stop and the way I was pulled back to this door,” Nobara said pointing at the door, it honestly pissed her off since because of this she couldn’t beat the shit out of Mahito.
‘And Itadori must be fighting against him alone, I need to back him up as well,’ Nobara thought as Adam placed the cup of steaming black tea in front of her.
“Oh, that, yes it is indeed happened because of the door, the door only appears in front of people who have a strong wish that they want to achieve no matter the cost, and I am the one who helps them in attaining that wish,” Adam explained as Nobara looked at him and the cup a few times while taking in the information.
‘That’s a fancy cup,’ Nobara thought looking at the intricate designs on the ceramic cup in front of her, not to mention that the fragrance of tea was making her want to drink it.
‘No I can’t let my guard down, it can be that this domain has something to do with food, if I eat or drink something might happen to me since the condition will be fulfilled,’ Nobara thought as she continued to look at the teacup and…
“Oh yeah, I totally forgot about the snacks, can’t have tea by itself,” Adam smiled as he snapped his fingers and multiple plates appeared on the table.
It had various pastries, cookies, and shortbread along with a few other savory treats, and seeing all of this delicious-looking food along with the tantalizing scent coming from them.
‘Control yourself, Nobara, you need…to hold……on!!!!’ Nobara shouted in her head to keep herself strong.
10 minutes later….
“Oh my god, these pastries are so good, not to mention these jam-filled cookies, I can eat these all day!!” Nobara fell to the temptation of the delicious food and she didn’t regret it one bit.
‘I never found something this good in Tokyo!’ Nobara was just immersed in the taste at the moment as she was exploring the sweet heavens which she had found for the first time.
“I am glad you enjoyed it,” Adam just smiled as he saw how quickly Nobara finished everything.
“Ha~ that was great, too good even,” Nobara herself looked satisfied with it and she didn’t care about anything else.
“So, shall we talk about what wish you have?” Adam asked and Nobara tilted her head.
“Hmm?” She was puzzled since she had already forgotten about the paper that was in front of the door.
“You aren’t going to kill me now that I have eaten the food?” Nobara still believed that it was some sort of condition for Adam’s domain, it was a condition she fulfilled herself because she was unable to hold back.
“Why would I do that? As I told you before, the door to this place only appears in front of someone who has a strong wish, you had one that is why it came to you, So, what were you wishing for at the time?” Adam explained again as he made the empty plates vanish.
“Hmm, when the door appeared I was thinking of a lot of things,” Nobara muttered since that was indeed true, at the time she had too many things to do and she didn’t want to die…
‘So, that’s it, huh,’ Nobara thought as she shook her head, she now understood why the door appeared in front of her.
“Hmm, I guess I understand, so you will make sure I don’t die because of ‘this’ right?” Nobara asked pointing at the upper left side of her face which was completely gone.
“Yes, I will restore it back to how it was if that is what you want,” Adam said and Nobara’s eye widened.
“Wait really?!” Nobara wasn’t shocked by the fact that he said he’ll restore her back, but because it didn’t seem like….
“And I mean that I will heal your damaged soul completely along with the outer injury of course, so you’d be back to how you were before,” Nobara could see that Adam already understood what type of injury she had, Mahito had the cursed technique that allowed to change the souls of other people and that allowed him to change the shape of people’s physical bodies.
And that is what he used to blow the side of her face, this would’ve killed her but thanks to the sorcerer who was carrying her, she had a chance at survival since the damage on her was halted.
But even if that chance wasn’t higher than 5% it would be even lower if thought realistically, and here Adam seemed fully sure that he can heal her completely with no problems.
It was just that….
“What’s in it for you?”
