Anime Crossover: Master is Not Here Today

"Out."

"Kamo, you can't hit the ball if you don't swing!"

Satoru Gojo takes the stage as the referee, and the students give their all in the baseball game, while Masamichi Yagami and Yoshinobu Rakuganji watch and chat on the sidelines.

"One was already a headache enough, and now there's another one."

Yoshinobu Rakuganji looked at Ritsuka Fujimaru. The last time he saw her, she only had Jeanne Alter by her side, but now there was Ryougi Shiki as well.

He sighed:

"What a powerful spell!"

Nocturnalus Masamichi sensed that his old friend's tone didn't seem to carry any malice, so he smiled and said:

"Do you also think highly of that girl? You seem to treat her much better than you treat Haddock."

The two cannot be compared.

Leyan Temple Jiashen Road:

“The very existence of Yuujin Itadori violates the rules of the jutsu world and is taboo. As for Ritsuka Fujimaru, she is currently just a student whose techniques are too powerful, so she needs to be paid special attention to.”

"At least until the higher-ups make a judgment about her, I prefer to see her as a promising member of the sorcery world."

Moth asked the righteous path:

"What if the higher-ups also consider her a taboo subject?"

"."

Yoshinobu Rakuganji did not answer, but Masamichi Yagami, who knew his old friend's character well, understood his choice.

The other party's stubbornness in their views was so difficult to correct that he could only sigh helplessly.

Ultimately, the baseball game ended with Tokyo High School winning, meaning Tokyo High School achieved a resounding 2-0 victory over Kyoto High School. Next year's exchange meeting will also be held in Tokyo.

"Won!"

"How about we all get together for dinner tonight to celebrate the successful conclusion of the exchange meeting!"

"That's a good idea!"

"It's not a bad thing to relax once in a while."

"I agree."

"Salmon."

"That's it."

The victorious students from Tokyo Vocational High School chatted and laughed, discussing where they should have dinner together that evening.

At that moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka turned to look at the Kyoto High School students who were preparing to leave, thought for a moment, and decided to step forward and say:

"Hello, may I speak with Yukichi alone?"

Chapter 48: Conversation with the Mechanical Maru, Information Gathering

"Hey, that troublesome guy is coming."

Seeing Fujimaru Ritsuka walking towards them, Zenin Shin'i frowned.

Although she didn't encounter the opponent in the team battle at the exchange meeting, and she didn't participate in the subsequent cursed spirit invasion incident, in the past two days, Fujimaru Ritsuka's name has already spread among them.

He single-handedly blocked and killed the attacking Special Grade Cursed Spirit. He possesses a special spell that can summon humanoid gods with self-awareness and combat power of Special Grade or above. His personal information is currently being reviewed by higher authorities.

From any perspective, the other party is the kind of troublesome person who shouldn't be easily provoked.

However, the first thing the other party said when they came up to them made them pause for a moment.

Looking for Yu Xingji?

Zenjima Shin'i and Nishimiya Momo and the others exchanged glances, all of them seeing the doubt in each other's eyes.

Higashido Aoi asked directly, with a hint of doubt:

"Who is this Yu Xingji you're talking about? Is there such a person at our school?"

"Eh?"

This question stumped Fujimaru Ritsuka. What do you mean? You don't know the people from your school?

Just as the two sides were looking at each other in bewilderment, Kamo Noriyuki slowly spoke up:

"Fujimaru-kun is talking about Ultimate Machine Maru, right? Yukichi is his real name."

"What?!" ×n

Upon learning this information, the students in Kyoto were shocked.

"The Machine Ball isn't called the Machine Ball?!"

"I thought that guy's real name was Mechanical Maru!"

"So you've been calling me by the wrong name all along?"

"What should we do? Should we apologize to him?"

"But this name sounds really strange. I'm more used to calling it 'Mechanical Maru'."

"I feel so too."

The students in Kyoto started chattering excitedly.

Ultimate Machine Maru is the name of the mechanical Cursed Corpse that Kokichi remotely controls. Since Ultimate Machine Maru is with them most of the time, they have almost forgotten that it is just the name of the Cursed Corpse.

Unable to bear their shameful appearance any longer, Kamo Noriyuki stepped forward, slightly blocking Fujimaru Ritsuka's view, and asked:

"Excuse me, Fujimaru-kun, what brings you to see Kaiki and Yukichi?"

"Um, it's a personal matter."

Fujimaru Ritsuka said somewhat embarrassedly.

Ok? !

Seemingly sensing something unusual, the gossipy eyes of everyone in Kyoto turned to them once again.

A girl wants to talk to a boy alone about something personal? Could it be...?

Confession? !

But considering that Ultimate Machine Maru usually looks like a mechanical puppet, not to mention his real body, would any girl really like someone like that?

Is he an ultimate mechanical enthusiast?

Speaking of which, since the other party is a student in Tokyo but knows the real name of Gakumei, could it be that they are an acquaintance of Gakumei?

Will the machine-made ball have acquaintances?

Hmmmm, something just doesn't feel right no matter how I think about it.

In short, regardless of what others thought, Fujimaru Ritsuka simply wanted to see Yukichi, and her request wasn't unreasonable. Therefore, Kamo Noriyuki nodded and said:

"Okay, then please come with me."

So, Fujimaru Ritsuka followed the Kyoto students back to their temporary dormitory.

Kamo Kenki went into the dormitory to call the other person. After she stood at the dormitory door for a while, Ultimate Machine Maru came out of the dormitory.

During the team battle at the exchange meeting, Ultimate Machinemaru and Panda clashed, and Ultimate Machinemaru itself was damaged to some extent, now looking rather dilapidated.

Hello.

"follow me."

Upon seeing the Ultimate Machine Maru controlled by Yukichi, Fujimaru Ritsuka was about to greet him, but to her surprise, he brushed past her, left a comment, and walked straight out.

Seeing this, she could only follow the other person with her own doubts.

Following Ultimate Machine Maru, the two arrived at the venue of the previous exchange meeting team competition. At this time, no one else would be here except for them.

So Ultimate Machine Maru finally stopped and turned to look at Fujimaru Ritsuka, getting straight to the point:

"You were sent by Gojo Satoru to investigate the mole within the high school, weren't you?"

"Yes, it's me."

".Eh?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka was a little confused. Although she had indeed come for this matter, why was the other party so quick to explain?

Damn it, all that talk she'd been thinking about for so long was for nothing?!

But plans never go as expected, and she was already used to these unexpected situations. Since things had come to this, she could only go with the flow:

"Since that's the case, I'll get straight to the point."

After gathering her thoughts, she asked:

"If I'm not mistaken, you chose to cooperate with them in order to recover your body from the damage caused by the curse of Heaven and Curse, right?"

"But now that the top-tier cursed spirit has been killed, why would they still plan this attack together?"

"So this is where the clue was found after all."

Ultimate Machine Maru muttered something to himself, then he asked her:

"That top-tier cursed spirit called 'True Man,' you were the one who killed him, weren't you?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded in agreement:

"Yes."

"."

Just as he had expected, Fujimaru Ritsuka was Gojo Satoru's mole planted among the students.

Ultimate Machine Maru fell silent, his heart filled with complex emotions, for his desire to restore his body had been thwarted by the other party.

After a moment, he continued:

"I did choose to cooperate with them because of the existence of Heaven and Curse, but you've got one thing wrong."
