Chapter 22: Imperial Duel
"Young Master Satoru, Zenin Toji is trash. Someone without cursed energy is not worth knowing!"
"As the Six Eyes heir of the Gojo family, someone with Heavenly Restriction isn't qualified to be your friend."
Shinsuke's face twisted in dissatisfaction.
He couldn't understand why the Rokugan of the Gojo family would bother with someone like Toji.
To him, Toji was nothing more than a failure, a man without cursed energy, utterly useless in the world of sorcery.
On the other side, Satoshi's expression darkened, his irritation growing at being interrupted yet again by Shinsuke.
Shunichi, standing guard at Satoshi's side, now wore an openly hostile expression.
Shinsuke had been spouting insults about Toji, but in doing so, he was also indirectly insulting Satoshi.
Did this fool not realize that he was speaking to someone who also bore Heavenly Restriction, someone who also lacked cursed energy?
Shunichi was about to step forward and act, but Satoshi stopped him.
First, he needed Toji's acknowledgment.
