I am the Executioner Dragon, but a cute mod.
Chapter 71: Achievements and Followers
After being rejected by the Fujiwara clan, Sukuna did not give up. In order to promote his ideas as much as possible, Sukuna went to many places and visited many powerful and influential families.
Although most of these families turned him away because of his appearance, large families like the Abe family and the Kanbara family still gave him the opportunity to speak.
However, criticizing the backwardness of feudal society in front of the beneficiaries of feudal society was an offense to these nobles, so without exception, Su Nuo was kicked out of his home.
After experiencing all this, Su Nu finally realized how naive her envisioned path was. Getting these nobles to admit that the feudal system was backward was even more difficult than getting a mentally ill person to admit that they were mentally ill.
"Can I really succeed on this path...?"
Su Nuo muttered to himself, and the only answer he received was the patter of raindrops; it was raining.
Raindrops fell on Su Nuo's shoulders, wetting his clothes. People seeking shelter from the rain covered their heads and jogged to find shelter under the eaves, but accidentally bumped into Su Nuo.
He slipped and almost fell, but Su Nuo caught him in time.
"Are you alright?" Su Nu asked.
The man's eyes darted away, clearly frightened by Sukuna's appearance, but he still left a "thank you" before hurriedly departing.
The rain grew heavier and heavier, and the streets were completely deserted except for Su Nuo, who stood in the rain, letting the raindrops fall on her.
He kept replaying the pedestrian's words of thanks in his mind; those two simple words seemed to answer the question in his heart.
"How will you know if you'll succeed if you don't try?"
As Su Nuo spoke, he left the city on his own, deciding to travel the world in search of an opportunity to change it...
About three days later, Su Nuo passed through a village, intending to rest there for a while and spread his ideas to the local people. However, before entering the village, he saw a monster that looked like a locust in the fields.
This monster was about two meters tall, with blood-red eyes. It could fly and ate people and livestock. When Su Nuo saw it, it was lying on the only old ox in the village, tearing off large chunks of flesh.
Amid the mournful cries of the old ox, the villagers scattered in all directions. Only one old farmer, due to his leg injury, fell to the ground. Just as the monster noticed him and flapped its wings to fly over, Su Nuo made his move.

As an invisible slash was unleashed, the monster flying in mid-air was instantly sliced in two, black blood splattering all over the old farmer's face.
Afterwards, the villagers did not cheer; instead, they were even more frightened than before because they saw Su Nuo's terrifying appearance.
Su Nuo said nothing, but turned and left. He saved the man without expecting anything in return, simply because the old farmer had fallen in front of him and he happened to be there.
However... what just happened reminded Su Nuo that in this era, it wasn't just feudal society that made life difficult for ordinary people; monsters were also a major problem.
Although Sukuna couldn't change this era, he could use his power to deal with the evil monsters, which would at least make life a little better for ordinary people.
Thinking this, Su Nuo was about to leave the village when a trembling "thank you" came from behind him. He paused for a moment but did not turn around.
And so, Su Nuo traveled far and wide, trying to spread his ideas while dealing with the monsters that were causing havoc in the area.
Gradually, as Sukuna killed more and more demons, his deeds began to spread among the people. People gave him a nickname, not the future majestic King of Curses, but [Buddha's Demon].
Translated, it means that the evil spirit beside Buddha, though evil, does good deeds.
When Su Nuo first heard this nickname, he didn't care at all. But when he discovered that when he was spreading his ideas, people's eyes showed less fear and more awe because of this nickname.
Su Nuo then realized that he was not making a one-sided sacrifice; these ignorant people were trying to abandon their fear and accept him.
"That's great, that's really... that's great."
Su Nuo couldn't help but sigh, his travels never ceasing. He knew that once his name spread, many people suffering from the torment of demons awaited his salvation...
Another period of time passed. On this day, Sukuna accidentally stained his clothes with black blood while slaying a demon. Having grown up under Amelia's tutelage, the first thing he learned was "to love cleanliness".
To keep it clean, Su Nuo quickly found a river. On the riverbank, he took off his clothes and washed them with all four arms at the same time.
This scene was witnessed by a down-on-his-luck samurai who happened to be passing by. His name was Teppei, a low-ranking samurai whose land had been taken away by the lord. Because he had some education, he had a deep understanding of the corruption of the nobles.
Looking at Su Nuo's powerful and perfect physique, Teppei couldn't help but sigh:
"Such a powerful being washes his own clothes, has no servants, and is very approachable."
So Teppei went over, knelt down before Su Nuo, and said he was willing to follow.
Faced with this guy who knelt down before him the moment he appeared, Su Nuo was filled with doubt. He asked:
"You want to follow me? Why?"
Tieping said:
"Because you wash your own clothes, sir."
This answer, though seemingly absurd, is quite sufficient, because it profoundly shows that Teppei is not following power, but character.
Sukuna did not answer Teppei's request. After washing the clothes, he dried them with the stove, put them on, and then said:
"I had heard that a monster called 'Yamata no Orochi' was ravaging the people around Kyoto. This trip is to go to the area around Kyoto to subdue it..."
Su Nuo didn't finish speaking. After getting dressed, he turned and left, abandoning the risk and handing the choice over to Teppei.
Tieping hesitated for only a moment, then said, "Sir, wait for me," and hurriedly followed...
As Sukuna slays monsters and helps the village, more and more people gather around him. These people are not soldiers, but refugees, homeless farmers, and displaced people.
They followed Sukuna not only because it was safe and they had food to eat with him, but most importantly because Sukuna was willing to accept them.
They were a group of people abandoned by this era, yet they found a sense of belonging with Sukuna. Sukuna often said to them:
"Why do you not have your own land? Why are you displaced? The nobles say you are not working hard enough, but I say they have taken away what you have."
These words gave hope to Su Nuo's followers, making them understand:
So-called nobles are also human beings. Between people, there are two eyes, two ears, one nose, and one mouth. There is no essential difference.
Therefore, everyone is equal; this is the true nature of the world...
