Curse Return: Demon Void Girl Doesn't Want to Be a Weakling

While Mashiro was making preparations, Sukuna was also naturally preparing for battle.

The ancestral land of the Zen family has now become the stronghold of the Sukuna.

After leaving the vocational college, she rested and prepared for the day of the final battle.

When Rime arrived at the Zen temple's basement, Sukuna was resting with her eyes closed.

With her eyes closed, she spoke, "Rime, what is it?"

"Lord Sukuna, this is the finger I retrieved from those thieves."

Rime knelt down first, holding the severed finger in her hands and raising it above her head.

"So that's why you disappeared back then."

Su Nuo suddenly realized what was happening, and without hesitation, she put it directly into her mouth.

Then he swallowed it.

"boom!"

Several pillars beneath the Zen temple instantly snapped, and cracks appeared in the ground, extending outwards from Sukuna's feet.

Her beautiful blonde hair moved gracefully without any wind.

Su Nuo's aura rose steadily, and terrifying waves of magical power spread outwards.

She opened her eyes, her crimson pupils gleaming faintly.

An evil aura enveloped her, yet her angelic face revealed a malicious smile, full of a unique allure.

If a stranger were to see this, they might be trapped in an abyss from which they could never escape.

"We got the last finger, and this one too."

She took out the Buddha statue she had obtained from Lu Suo and swallowed it as well: "Lu Suo is quite capable; he was able to find my Buddha statue."

"Congratulations, Master Su Nuo!"

Rime remained kneeling, her head bowed even lower, her voice tinged with excitement.

"What's there to congratulate?"

Su Nuo smirked, revealing a smug smile: "It's just taking back what belongs to me."

"Lord Sukuna is right. At his peak, Lord Sukuna is naturally invincible."

Rimei stood up, looking at Su Nuo with eager eyes.

"Well said, Rimei."

Su Nu smiled. Li Mei always revered her like this, so she naturally wouldn't let Li Mei down.

She led Rime out of the underground and looked up in the direction of Tokyo.

"Ten Days, it's really making me itchy and restless."

Su Nu snorted softly and sat down under the cherry blossom tree: "I hope they can make me happy as much as possible."

"Lord Sukuna, if you're bored, I have some sake stored here."

Seeing Su Nu's listless appearance, Rimei took out some chilled fine wine and poured it for Su Nu.

"Oh, as expected of Rimei, she's so thoughtful in her preparations."

Su Nuo raised his wine cup, examined it for a moment, and then slowly began to sip it.

She took a sip of wine, tilted her head slightly, revealing her fair neck, which made Li Mei's heart beat a little faster.

Rimei gently touched her chest, feeling her heart pounding faster, and felt a little scared of this unfamiliar reaction.

What does this feel like?

Su Nuo didn't notice Ri Mei's unusual behavior. She looked up at the cherry blossoms falling from the sky, which eventually landed in her wine glass.

As she watched the cherry blossoms bobbing in her wine glass, a rare sense of peace settled over her. This tranquility was thanks to Rimei.

Thinking of this, Su Nuo's usually murderous gaze softened.

"Rime, it's a rare treat. Would you like to have a drink with me?"

Su Nuo raised her cup, revealing an exquisite smile.

As Rimei looked at Su Nuo like this, her heart pounded faster and faster.

"Rime?"

Seeing that Li Mei hadn't replied for a while, Su Nuo tilted his head with a hint of doubt.

Rime only snapped out of her daze upon hearing her own name, her face flushing red instantly. She stammered, "Ah, yes, Lord Sukuna, it's my greatest honor!!"

"What's wrong? Why are you so flustered?"

Su Nu laughed and personally poured Ri Mei a glass of wine: "Here."

"Yes."

Rime respectfully accepted the wine and silently accompanied Sukuna as they drank under the cherry blossoms.

It's okay, it's the same as usual.

She told herself this, but her heartbeat never slowed down.

......

the other side.

At the high school, Mashiro spent the entire day at the training ground.

The sky was just beginning to lighten, and there wasn't a single person in sight on the entire training ground except for her.

"call."

Mashiro exhaled a soft breath, which turned into white mist in the air.

She revealed the rain in her hand.

The purpose today is to summarize the surgical techniques we've already mastered and then familiarize ourselves with them further.

Although she felt that there was no pressure in doing the Su Nuo ritual, what if she borrowed a big one?

It's better to practice more.

"Then let's begin."

The words had barely left his mouth when a flash of light appeared, and a practice skeleton was cleaved in two at the waist, its fragments scattering all over the ground.

Mashiro sheathed his sword, twisted his wrist, and slashed again, each strike aimed at a different angle.

Chop, flick, slash, thrust—the movements flowed seamlessly, the blade flashing incessantly.

After completing one round of training, she absorbed Cong Yu into her body.

"That's all for physical skills."

Mashiro flicked her wrist, then raised her hand, activating the water control technique.

A drop of blood seeped from the fingertip, hovering in mid-air, slowly condensing.

What's even more incredible than the Crimson Blood Manipulation Technique is that she can not only indirectly control blood by manipulating the water content in it, but also control various types of water.

"【Blood transfusion】".

The blood instantly transformed into a laser beam, piercing not only the wooden stake but also the wall behind it.

"Again."

【Supernova】.

"boom!"

Blood exploded in the center of the training field, and the shockwave kicked up a cloud of dust.

Mashiro withdrew her own blood and gently clenched her fist.

"【untie】."

"【Umori-ra-dan】".

"[Sound Wave]."

"【The Spell of the Straw Spirit】".

"Extreme Blade: Burning..."

She stopped just as she was about to unleash [Extreme Strike: Burning Heaven].

Using such a technique here would blow up the high school students, so let's forget about it.

"Let's practice the construction spell one last time."

Mashiro muttered to himself, his palm glowing, and a knife materialized out of thin air.

After carefully sensing it for a while, she dispersed it into magical power and then condensed it into other weapons.

Swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, and forks—different weapons swirled in her hands.

After trying out the usual weapons, her mind started working again.

Is it possible to create a fantasy-style Noble Phantasm, similar to [Unlimited Blade Works]?

Although the chances were slim, the possibility made her want to give it a try.

"Then let's give it a try."

Mashiro clenched her hands tightly and slowly closed her eyes.

As she finished speaking, light bloomed in her palm and then slowly condensed into the shape of a sword.

Mashiro opened her eyes, and the sword in her hand was emitting a faint light.

She raised both hands, then channeled her magical power into them, shouting loudly, "Excalibur!!"

"boom!"

A golden beam of light shot out.
