Curse Returns: What did the human-shaped wishing machine do wrong this time?

Yuuji Itadori was fast and strong from a young age, with physical abilities far superior to ordinary people. So, the curator helped him buy a baseball bat-shaped cursed tool from the black market of cursed masters.

This cursed tool doesn't have any other magical effects; it just amplifies the user's strength twice over. Yujin doesn't usually have the opportunity to exorcise cursed spirits, so it's enough for him.

Actually, he had other knives, arrows, guns, or other strangely shaped magical artifacts, but those weren't suitable for Yuujin to bring to school as a student. This baseball bat was actually his favorite.

In Yuujin Itadori's eyes, the entire space of the empty three-story building was somewhat distorted, and the long black hair seemed endless, rubbing against the ground and making a rustling sound.

"Seniors! Stay away! Where did that thing come from?!"

Visibility was poor in the darkness. It wasn't until Sasaki lit the white candles she had brought that Yuujin Itadori noticed that she was holding a long, thin object with a seal that had been torn in half.

The thing exuded a strong, ominous aura of curse power, and the exposed part appeared to be a human finger, its grotesque and hideous appearance quite unusual.

"Why does the atmosphere feel a bit strange?"

"Head...hair! So many eyes!! Ah!!!"

It was only then that Sasaki and Iguchi belatedly realized that something was wrong with their surroundings.

In the darkness, countless eyes coiled and folded behind them, gazing at them.

Seeing this, Itadori Yuujin swung his baseball bat at the cursed spirits. The cursed tool was imbued with cursed power, and the low-level cursed spirits that had been attracted were instantly annihilated by his power.

"Itadaki!! What kind of monster is this...!!"

In the critical moment, even ordinary people like Sasaki and Iguchi could see the cursed spirits, and they realized that they were surrounded by monsters.

Having been searching for paranormal sites, they finally saw something real this time. The two of them huddled together in fear, trembling, cold sweat dripping from their faces onto the ground.

"Stop talking nonsense, get out of here!"

Yuujin Itadori kept swinging his baseball bat, but the cursed spirits rushed over like they didn't care about their lives. The finger that his senior had thrown on the ground had a fatal attraction to the cursed spirits.

"Kudoshin... help me!"

Sasaki and Iguchi tried to move to the stairwell after hearing Itadori's words, but the hair that blended into the darkness wrapped around them and, as if it had come to life, quickly spread up their calves, climbed over their bodies, and crawled into their mouths.

"Senior! Senior!"

Yuji Itadori shouted, clearing a path with his baseball bat, and saw two people lying on the ground with their eyes rolled back, their lives uncertain. The hair seemed endless, still burrowing into their throats.

Yuji Itadori grabbed the strand of hair in Sasaki's mouth and tried to pull it out, but as soon as he moved it, the pale-faced senior convulsed in pain.

"I hope this hair doesn't poke into my internal organs... And what's that finger? Is it some kind of cursed object?"

Yuji Itadori didn't know much about cursed objects.

Both Rimei and Zhangxiang are cursed beings who have taken human form, and neither of them wants Yujin to know too much about cursed beings.

Rime wanted Itadori Yuuhito to be transformed into Ryoumen Sukuna, while Kuroko didn't want to ruin her image in her younger brother's heart.

Yuujin Itadori dodged the attack of the curse from behind, then flipped over and grabbed the strands of hair, intending to tear them apart in the middle. The hair strands looked thin, but they were actually quite resilient in his hands. He tried to break some off, and new strands quickly grew out, seemingly endless.

Yuujin Itadori believes this must be the spell of that cursed spirit, which requires attacking its main body.

He tore off some of the hair that the two people were talking about, which he couldn't get out of their bodies for the time being. Yujin picked them up and placed them in a corner, then picked up the finger that was lying on the ground and attracting the cursed spirit.

He hurriedly ran towards the source of the hair, trying to re-wrap the seal around his fingers as he ran.

However, the cursed object might be useless once the seal was broken, and the cursed spirits gave up attacking the senior and the others and started running after him.

Yuji Itadori wanted to smash the window with a baseball bat and throw the finger out, but while he was smashing the window, he was caught off guard and dragged into the mysterious inner room by spider-like hair.

……

In the hospital, Itadori Yasuke angrily turned his face away.

Alluka sat obediently beside his hospital bed. The nurse chuckled and covered her mouth, teasingly saying, "Mr. Itadori, why don't you listen to your granddaughter and arrange for your discharge? Your family is very worried about you."

The nurse had never seen such a stubborn old man before.

They conducted a full physical examination on Itadori Yasusuke. When he first came, his organs were showing signs of failure, but today, for some reason, Mr. Itadori Yasusuke's condition has improved significantly, and some of his chronic ailments have disappeared. It's truly a medical miracle.

But Mr. Itadori seemed very unhappy, and even a little angry.

"This is my grandson, not my granddaughter... Never mind, why am I bringing this up?"

Itadori Yamasuke frowned and explained to Alluka.

Alluka has always had long hair, and he's gotten used to being misunderstood many times over the years.

Feeling his body getting better, Itadori Yasuke knew that his granddaughter must have done something.

He actually believes that everyone should have a proper death, and he can feel that his life should have ended here.

Yasuke Itadori had no regrets in his life; he felt that even after he died, he could still go to the Sanzu River and beat up his good-for-nothing son.

Looking at his obedient grandson with eyes full of affection, Itadori Yasuke couldn't bring himself to be angry.

He sighed, wanting to teach Alluka and the others that they couldn't act this way, that everyone has their own destiny.

Unexpectedly, Alluka seemed to sense something at this moment, and unconsciously clenched her hands tightly against her chest, her body swaying slightly.

"elder brother?"

Alluka opened her mouth, her breathing becoming slightly rapid in a daze.

"What happened?"

It was rare for Itadori Yamasuke to see Alluka change his expression, and he also felt that something was amiss.

"Xiaomei, is your brother still at school?"

Alluka looked momentarily confused, then forced a smile.

"He went to a club activity." Rimei smiled and smoothed Alluka's hair. "Zhang Xiang has already gone to find him, he'll be fine."

There is some kind of telepathy between twins. When they were little, Alluka knew when Hisahito Itadori cried. Thinking of Ryouso's plan, Rime pursed her lips and suppressed her excitement.

"I see..."

Alluka felt a momentary dizziness. He lowered his head, his wispy bangs obscuring the emotions in his eyes.
