Jujutsu Kaisen: I Made Sukuna Owe 100 Million Yen

If the special-grade cursed spirit just now brought "fear".

Now, as the boy covered in black tattoos looked up, only two words filled the space.

despair.

Despair strong enough to freeze the soul.

Ryoumen Sukuna—the cursed king who currently possesses Itadori Yuujin's body—walks lazily through the murky shallow water.

His bare upper body was covered with black runes.

A mocking glint appeared in those scarlet compound eyes.

It's like watching an ant that you could step on and kill at any moment.

"Hey, kid with glasses."

Su Nuo stopped less than five meters in front of Lin En.

He casually raised his hand and pointed to the top-grade cursed spirit that was chained in mid-air.

"Is this your technique?"

"Using such a boring rule as 'contract' to forcibly bind the opponent..."

"Although it looks fragile and reeks of that nauseating money-grubbing."

"But I really don't like it."

Lynn didn't speak, not because he didn't want to, but because he was trembling.

No matter how calm your mind is, your body's instincts can't lie.

As an ordinary person without any magical powers, facing a monster like Ryomen Sukuna, the physical fear was simply unbearable.

"Don't you like it?"

Lynn forcibly controlled his facial muscles, pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, and forced a professional smile onto his lips.

It even carried a hint of provocation.

"That's a real shame."

"I was originally going to ask Mr. Sukuna if he would be interested in getting a membership card for our store."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Su Nuo seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world.

Looking up to the sky and laughing.

His laughter was arrogant and violent.

Even the pinned-down super-grade cursed spirit was so frightened that it curled up into a ball, trembling with fear.

"Membership card?"

"Interesting, very interesting."

The laughter stopped abruptly.

Su Nuo's figure vanished instantly.

next second.

A hideous, distorted face was pressed directly against Lynn's face.

The distance between the tips of the noses should not exceed one centimeter.

Lynn could even smell the strong stench of blood.

"Then use the life of this body to get this card."

With a sharp screech, its claws aimed straight for the throat!

The shadow of death loomed over them instantly.

[WARNING! Lethal attack detected!]

[Current debtor: Fukuhei Hui.]

Triggering the "Creditor Protection Mechanism" requires 50,000 points per 5 minutes.

Insufficient balance! Unable to generate absolute defense!

The red warning light pulsed like a death knell.

"There's no way to tough it out."

"Trading is allowed... Trading is mandatory!"

Adrenaline surged.

Lynn's mind raced, like an overclocked computer.

His gaze swept frantically across the system's online store.

He was searching for a glimmer of hope.

Most powerful items are grayed out.

The prices below are simply astronomical.

A heavenly weapon? I can't afford it.

Black rope? I can't afford it.

A trial card for the Reversal Technique? I couldn't afford it even if I sold my life.

"I want something cheap..."

"Something that can resolve the current situation immediately..."

"Most importantly, it has to be bait that an arrogant guy like Sukuna absolutely cannot refuse..."

At the critical moment.

His gaze settled on a small icon in the "Miscellaneous/Consumables" section.

A green wrapping paper.

It looks like chewing gum from a convenience store.

Product Name: Soul Tranquilizer (Trial Pack)

[Type: Consumables/Spiritual Items]

[Effect: Forces the user's primary consciousness into a state of dormancy, severing the connection with the physical body for one minute. For dual-soul symbiotes, it can force the latent soul to gain complete control of the body.]

Price: 500 points.

[Note: Although it's cheap, it's very powerful.]

"This is it!"

Lynn was overjoyed.

It's a big gamble.

They staked their lives on the gambling table.

If Sukuna doesn't accept the challenge, if Sukuna only wants to kill.

Lynn will have to give up completely here today.

But Lynn was betting on Sukuna's "personality".

This king of curses hates not death the most.

It is not freedom.

What he found most unbearable was the humiliation of being constantly suppressed back into his body by Hisahito Itadori's "cage."

"Buy!"

[Ding! Transaction successful. 500 points consumed. Balance: 70 points.]

The goods have been shipped.

Su Nuo's claws had already touched Lynn's skin.

Blood lines appeared.

Lynn didn't dodge.

Because there's no way to avoid it.

He shouted out a sentence at top speed:

"I can give you your freedom!"

The claws stopped.

The sharp fingernail was less than a millimeter away from the aorta.

Su Nuo's scarlet eyes narrowed slightly.

The murderous intent faltered, transforming into a kind of playful exploration.

"What...did you say?"

Lynn's heart was pounding in his throat, each beat pounding against his chest.

But he remained outwardly calm and even leisurely straightened his collar.

He slowly raised his right hand.

A small, green cube with a pungent minty smell lay in the palm of my hand.

"I know you're strong, strong enough that no one can kill you."

Lynn's voice regained its gentle tone.

It possesses a kind of persuasive charm.

Like the whispers of a demon.

"But no matter how strong you are."

"Once the owner of that body—Itadori Hisahito—wakes up, you'll have to obediently go back to jail, right?"

Su Nuo's face darkened.

The surrounding temperature dropped sharply.

This is his sore spot, his Achilles' heel.

To be suppressed by a mere imp as the King of Curses is an indelible disgrace.

"This stuff is called 'Soul Tranquilizer'."

Lynn picked up the candy with two fingers.

It waved in front of Su Nuo.

"As long as he eats it, Hisahito Katsura will be forced into a deep sleep."

"He won't wake up until the effects of the drug wear off, even if the sky falls."

"In other words..."

Lynn's smile deepened.

That kind of confidence that comes from having everything under control.

"This body belongs entirely to you for the next minute."

"No one can force you back down."

No one can make noise in your head.

"You may enjoy this minute of... the King's time."

Su Nuo stared at the candy, then looked at Lynn.

A few seconds of deathly silence.

"Hahaha! This is interesting!"

Su Nuo suddenly burst into laughter.

He grabbed the "candy" from Lynn's hand and smelled it.

He has an extremely strong perception of the soul, and he can sense that this small cube contains a special power of rules.

"Human, you have a lot of courage."

Su Nuo tossed the candy into the air and caught it with his mouth.

I chewed it twice.

"If I'm not satisfied in this minute, I'll kill you first."

As the sugar cubes entered my stomach.

A chill ran straight to the top of his head, enveloping his soul.

He could feel it clearly.

Hisahito Itadori's consciousness, which was just beginning to awaken, was forcibly pushed back into the abyss by a brute force.

The exhilarating feeling of having complete control over his body put him in a great mood.

"Since this thing is real... tell me, what do you want?"

Su Nuo was in a good mood.

He wouldn't mind giving this amusing ant a small reward.

Lynn no longer concealed the greed in his eyes.

He pointed to the still struggling Superior Cursed Spirit.

"First, help me clean up that trash."

"second……"

Lynn pushed up his glasses, a glint of light flashing on the lenses.

See the picture poorly.

"I want the finger inside its body."

"That is your power."

"Now, I want you to pay me this as 'payment' for this transaction."
