[Mainly Jujutsu Kaisen] The Shrine Maiden

I'm... according to the person who found me, my name is Mizukawa Kaede.

At the moment, I'm thoroughly suffering from amnesia.

To recover my memories, I came to the jujutsu world, where I was most likely to find clues, and chose to become a teacher at Tokyo Jujutsu High.

Unfortunately, my students are very mischievous, and Jujutsu High has plenty of problems of its own. I also have to take my students out on all kinds of missions from time to time, so I spend far more time on assignments than teaching in the classroom. Every day, I can only worry about all this, with no time to look into my past.

Then one day, someone set me up, and I nearly lost control. To avoid harming ordinary people or my students, I used my trump card and sealed my opponent.

The only problem was that I would be sealed too. I didn't have time to tell my students, but I figured I could explain everything properly once I woke up again.

That was what I thought.

Ten years later, after finally breaking out of my cocoon like a butterfly, I landed and saw two familiar faces, the strongest of them all, squaring off with me right between them.

The white-haired young man in a blindfold and the young man with the tousled bangs looked much more mature than when I'd taught them. Now, however, they were both frozen like statues, staring at me.

Me, who had finally broken the seal and recovered my memories: ...?

The entire novel is free and won't be locked behind a paywall, so take a look if you pass by!

The main focus is Jujutsu Kaisen, with my take on a modern Demon Slayer setting mixed in. Some details don't match the official canon, but you can just think of it as using the Demon Slayer Academy setting overall.

Updates may become irregular later on because of my studies.

There are past-life and present-life elements, and the name is the shortest curse, so the name is the same in both lives (I was just too lazy to come up with a new one x).

Female lead, open ending, no canon pairing, though there may be a winner in an extra chapter.

First-person narration. Any out-of-character behavior is on me. The setting is highly fictionalized, so please don't compare it to reality or nitpick the details. If that's not your thing, please don't read.

The female lead is very strong and overpowered, a little dense, and gentle with a blank, emotionless personality. She's lawful neutral.

Feel free to discuss the story with me. If you decide to drop it, please just leave without telling me. It'll be better for all of us.

Thank you all for your support! I'll do my best!

Theme: Life is full of regrets. Keep looking ahead.
