I started with Demon Slayer, and after drawing the strongest character, I'm invincible!

"Jay, what's wrong?"

Gojo Satoru looked at Natsumi Yuuki with a puzzled expression. Was there something on his face?

"Wu...there seems to be a spirit behind you..."

Xia Youjie said with a puzzled look, wondering if he was seeing things and how he could be talking.

"Huh? What kind of essence? Jay, your eyes... um..."

Gojo Satoru turned his head away nonchalantly, only to be embraced tightly and surrounded by a sweet scent.

"Wow~ So cute~ The little teacher is so adorable~ Hehe~"

Byakuran clung to Gojo Satoru like a lovesick fool, nuzzling the little Satoru in his arms with a satisfied expression, clearly engrossed in cuddling a cat.

Xia Youjie was stunned by the sudden turn of events. Who was this? Not only did he conjure up a person out of thin air, but he also tried to snatch him away!

"Who are you? Release Wu!"

Little Xia Youjie immediately tried to snatch Gojo Satoru back; this was his best friend, for crying out loud! Even a genius shouldn't just steal someone's best friend!

"Hey...Bai Lan...hurry up...uh...let...let go...of me...!"

Gojo Satoru recognized Byakuran as soon as he spoke. This guy hasn't changed at all since he grew up; his personality is still just as terrible.

"No, teacher~ Don't you miss me after all this time?" Bai Lan said coquettishly.

Then, without letting go of him, he changed his posture and sat in Gojo Satoru's original spot while holding the little Gojo Satoru.

"I don't want to," Gojo Satoru said coldly.

If he said he wanted to, Bai Lan would definitely take advantage of him and might even need an extra car when she goes out in the future.

"Waaaaah~ Teacher, you've changed~ So love will disappear, right~"

Byakuran looked at Gojo Satoru with tears welling up in her eyes, as if she was about to burst into tears at any moment.

Xia Youjie looked at the white-haired man who had suddenly appeared with a complicated expression. How could he have the nerve to make such an affected face?

Byakuran met Xia Youjie's gaze directly, pulled out an oversized item from somewhere and shoved it into Gojo Satoru's hand, then gave him a provocative look.

Xia Youjie: "???" Is this guy provoking him? Right? Right?

The one Wu is holding is the one he just saw. This white-haired man definitely did it on purpose!

The next second, the two said in unison:

"Wu, who is he?"

"Teacher~ Who is he~?"

Gojo Satoru: "..." The tension is palpable. What are they up to?

He gestured towards Xia Youjie with his lip: "My dearest friend—Xia Youjie."

Then he pointed to Blan: "Blan Gesso, my student."

He tore off two balls from the huge bowl, gave one to each of them, and then ignored them, focusing intently on eating.

Hehe~ The white orchid he brought was just what he wanted, super sweet~

Bai Lan: Best friend? Does that mean my teacher and I aren't the best of friends in the world?

The Vongola members: The best in the world? Have some shame!!!

Xia Youjie was extremely calm when he heard Wu Tiao Wu's words. It turned out that he was just a student. He thought that Wu Tiao Wu was here to take his seat.

Oh dear, he has many students who understand, but he only has one true friend.

To put it another way, Wu is his close friend, and his close friend's student can be considered half a student of his.

Thinking this way, he instantly felt relieved and found Bai Lan much more pleasing to the eye.

Wu Tiao Wu was focused on eating, Bai Lan was focused on petting the cat, and Xia Youjie looked at them with a slightly gratified look in his eyes. For a moment, no one spoke, and the atmosphere became exceptionally harmonious.

Byakuran: Hehe~ The teacher who has shrunk is so cute. No wonder Ranpo-kun kept clamoring to come over. He must have known about this.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

"Hello, excuse me, the dessert is here."

"Thank you, Miss Azusa. You've worked hard." Xia Youjie nodded gently to Enomoto Azusa.

"No, that's all. It's what I should do."

Enomoto Azusa smiled, served the meal, and returned to the kitchen. Then, she casually mentioned Gojo Satoru's table to Amuro Tooru.

"Really? Maybe it's Gojo-kun's family. Oh, right, I'm going to the restroom."

Amuro Tooru said with a smile, then left the kitchen.

On the way to the restroom, I glanced at Gojo Satoru's table without leaving a trace, and sure enough, I saw an unfamiliar young man.

The young man had white hair and purple eyes, and was handsome. He had a purple mark on his left cheek, which was not very clear from a distance. He always had a smile on his face and seemed very approachable.

Amuro Tooru also noticed that Gojo Satoru was being held in the arms of that strange young man. They must have a close relationship, and he might actually be Gojo Satoru's family member.

Although Amuro Tooru was very careful, Byakuran still noticed him, and his smile became even brighter when he saw Amuro Tooru.

Amuro Tooru—oh no, I should say Bourbon—is a codenamed member of the Black Organization. He is an undercover agent sent by the Japanese Public Security Bureau and one of those who knew the truth but did not report it.

It seems our teacher is popular wherever he goes. Not only did the fake Bourbon help him cover up the information, but even Gin, who was trained by the Black Organization and was loyal to the organization, betrayed the organization in this matter.

If they hadn't withheld information, he wouldn't have only now found his teacher.

However, considering their good intentions, he decided to punish them severely as a warning.

Bai Lan's eyes lit up. "Hey, I've got it! I heard they don't get along very well. Let them work together on a mission."

Oh dear, it's not good for relationships between colleagues to become too strained. This is a good opportunity for them to build some rapport.

Gin and Amuro Tooru, who loathe each other: "..."

"Bai Lan, what mischief are you up to now? Tone your smile a little, don't look like a pervert."

Gojo Satoru stared speechlessly at Byakuran, who was grinning maliciously. He was trying to cause trouble the moment they met.

"Oh dear~ I didn't~ Teacher, how could you think that about me? I'm not a bad person~ I wouldn't do anything bad~"

Byakuran lowered his head and nuzzled Gojo Satoru's head, employing the "manly man's coquettishness" technique.

"Hmph, do you even believe what you're saying?" Gojo Satoru retorted without any politeness.

He knew what kind of person Bai Lan was ever since he met him; he was definitely up to something bad just now.

Bai Lan: Wow! Teacher understands me so well. It seems that Teacher still cares about him.

"Hmm~ Teacher, please believe me~ I really didn't mean to do anything bad~" Bai Lan said with a smile.

He was simply giving his employees an opportunity to build rapport; how can that be considered doing something wrong?

"Hmph~ Don't do anything bad, or I'll send you back."

Gojo Satoru grumbled, though he was actually quite happy about Byakuran's arrival.

He thought he would never see the people from the past again, but who knew that Bai Lan would actually find him. There must have been many hardships and difficulties along the way, but they really did it.

“Okay, I’ll listen to you, teacher,” Bai Lan replied softly.

Reuniting with an old friend is a joyous occasion, but Gojo Satoru felt that Byakuran's behavior was a bit over the top.

Does he dare to, or is he able to, put him down and let him walk on his own? Is Bai Lan planning to carry him everywhere she goes?

Bai Lan: ヾ(≧O≦)〃 Aww~ I won't let go, I won't let go, I just want to hug the teacher~
