 Summary:

After the tragic death of Junpei's mother, Nagi Yoshino, Junpei is seduced by Mahito and leads a dark path of revenge. The jujutsu wizards continue to follow him, but it may be too late as Junpei falls further into the darkness.

Plot:

Junpei Yoshino's mother, Nagi Yoshino, was killed by a cursed spirit attracted to Sukun's finger found on the table.

After the incident, Yuji meets Nanami and asks her to help him fight Mahito next time. Nanami reminds Yuji that he is a child, and while she doesn't see it as a bad thing, Yuji shouldn't be put in a position to kill. Instead, Nanami asks him to continue monitoring Junpei.

After his mother was killed, Junpei asked Mahito to explain what happened. Mahito tells him that the finger is a cursed object that attracts curses. He claims that the human probably paid for the curse to attack Junpei and his mother. He asks Junpei if there is anyone with time and money who hates him. Junpei goes to his mother's closet and grabs the first black dress he can find.

Junpei goes to his school where Shota Ito is being honored at a ceremony. Mahito and Geto watch from the roof of another building. The cursed spirit uses Curtain to keep everyone out, but Pseudo-Geto says that Windows will soon find out.

Mahito plans to use Junpei to fight Sukun's vessel to force Yuji into a binding vow. Geto is amazed at how level-headed Mahito is compared to Jogo. He decides he wants Jujutsu High to discover the finger he left at Yoshino's house. Geto leaves, but Mahito begs him to stay and watch the foolish children perish.

Everyone in the gym except Shota Ito and Sotomura falls unconscious. Junpei confronts the teacher and reveals the scar on his head before turning his attention to Shota. He asks Shota if he's the one who put his finger in his house, but Shota doesn't understand what he's talking about. Suddenly, black marks overtake half of Shoto's body and Junpei knocks him to the ground.

Junpei brutalizes Shota, claiming that he will die regardless of his past crimes. Shota apologizes, but Junpei feels no sympathy for him. Yuji bursts into the gym and finds Junpei at the center of this conflict. Horrified, Yuji asks Junpei what on earth he's doing. Junpei turns to him and tells the jujutsu wizard to stay away from it.
