Exhausted, everyone was taking a long breath. However Aio face was turning paler. A sign of distress was evident in her countenance. She looked up to inform Megumi but he was not with them. The others were also surprised to see that he was absent.
Megumi had too sensed the disruption in curse energy flow. He was running hurriedly to where the eye was supposed to be. As he got more and more nearer the place he could sense immense curse energy circulation. Opposing energy sources were cancelling each other. For a non sorcerer it was an inhospitable place. The area was equivalent to a nuclear fallout site. Free curse energy wafted through the air. Every piece of pebble had absorbed an immense quantity of curse energy that has turn it to be crystallized. If a mere kitchen knife were to be left for an hour it would have become a deadly curse tool. And all this happens in less than half an hour.
Megumi slowed down and walked as he sensed the source closer. The area was now covered with a misty veil of pure cursed energy. The mist glowed with iridescent colours, mostly yellow and violet.
Megumi stepped on something squishy. He looked down to inspect what it was and was horrified to find it to be the corpse of a curse. As we walked more deeper into the mist he could see many more of such corpses scattered all around.
And just in the middle of this massacre stood someone. He was tall and thin. The mist was still obstructing proper vision. But when that familiar shape caught Megumi's eye he couldn't refrain from saying
"Gojo sensei"
The being turned towards Megumi. And when their eyes met Megumi was horrified. His face gave off a bitter smile.
"Megumi, where are we?" Gojo asked.
[With the sudden resurrection of Gojo Satarou, the balance of power has once again shifted, this time in favour of the sorcerers. All who knew about Gojo Satarou could feel that he was back.]
