After Shrinking, the Strongest Became My Guardian

What If Your Best Friend Suddenly Turned Little?

After the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons, the strongest sorcerer found a nine-year-old leader of the Star Religious Group in an alley.

The child wore a tattered kasaya and warily watched the silver-haired man before him, certain that just a moment ago he'd been at school, getting ready for class.

Gojo had to face a cruel fact: his best friend, the most evil curse user hunted by the jujutsu world, Geto Suguru, had turned little!

Not only had his body returned to that of a nine-year-old, his memories and understanding had also reverted to the days before he entered the jujutsu world.

And so, the strongest began a new life as a guardian.

Unfortunately, raising a child wasn't easy, and raising nine-year-old Suguru was harder still.

When a child is suspiciously quiet, they're definitely up to something.

Wanders off, sneaks curses to eat, causes a ruckus at Jujutsu Headquarters...

And his guardian was no pushover, either.

One caused trouble, the other fanned the flames. The old men had never felt their lives were so fraught with danger.

But things weren't that simple.

Every now and then, the consciousness of a twenty-seven-year-old would awaken inside little Suguru's body.

He was exhausted, gloomy, and utterly hopeless. He believed the strongest had been bewitched by his younger self and made the mistake of sparing him.

Then, from a far more distant future, a "message" crossed time and space, carrying an unyielding obsession.

If you had the chance to choose again,

would you be willing to try for a different ending

before all the tragedies came to pass?

Your future self has already wagered his soul for this.

Now you,

you who stand at the beginning of it all,

what choice will you make?
