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

At the hot spring deep in the mountains, the fleeing man quickly arrived and jumped into the hot spring.

"Wow! He's alive..." The real person was soaking in the hot spring, occasionally swimming around.

Lu Suo sat on a nearby rock, with half of a broken coral beside him, recovering from his injuries.

"Isn't this Louhu? You're awake?" The real person greeted him with a smile. "It's quite comfortable here, and no one comes to disturb us."

Although Louhu was unhappy with his frivolous behavior, they had risked their lives to save her after all, so she snorted and ignored him.

"Master, you must have expended quite a bit of energy too," Lu Suo asked with a smile.

"Ah, we've been discovered?" The real person switched to a backstroke position. "Those two siblings and Sukuna are my natural enemies."

"So," Ryousaku looked down at the real person, "you've seen Kujo Mashiro's true nature?"

"Hmm, she's definitely not human." A childlike smile appeared on the real person's face. "Her soul is a fusion of a sorcerer and a shikigami."

"After I used the reverse method to draw out the thing inside, she grew four wings on her head."

"Wings?" Ryousaku repeated the word, tapping his leg lightly with his finger. "A characteristic of shikigami?"

"Yes! Small, white, and with feathers." The real person gestured with his hand near his ear, and then used the power of non-action to grow an identical one behind his own ear.

"It grows from behind the ear. I've never seen that kind of structure before. It's so beautiful."

"What was her reaction at the time?"

"She can't move, but she doesn't seem to be badly hurt." The real person tilted their head. "After the essence of the shikigami was forcibly pulled out, she froze completely and couldn't even hold her sword."

"So that means the reverse method works on her." Lu Suo's lips curled slightly as he nodded. "Although we can't kill her by changing the shape of her soul, we can suppress her actions."

"It probably only works the first time, right?" Makoto leaned against the rock at the edge of the hot spring, supporting himself with his hands behind his back. "The second time might not be very useful, or even ineffective. That's my feeling."

"It didn't work the second time? Could it be..." Lu Su frowned, deep in thought.

"What's on Xia You's mind?"

"Ah, no, I was just thinking about what kind of shikigami she is," said Ryousuo, who was possessing Xia Youjie's body. "So she's the type you can't handle?"

"Yes, although I've learned how to expand my domain," the real person said, counting on her fingers one by one, "her sword has a special effect against cursed spirits, can mimic spells, and has very high physical abilities."

He tilted his head at an exaggerated angle.

"It's a perfect way to control me, but that's what makes it interesting."

Lu Suo stood up and wandered around the hot spring.

"What about the container for Su Nuo?" Lu Suo asked casually.

"That pink-haired one?" The real man's expression became a little subtle. He raised his hand and pressed his chest, where the wound where the black flash had pierced his soul core had not yet fully healed.

"He could touch my soul, not with magic, but with a normal punch. In the end, he even unleashed a black flash, piercing right through my soul."

"Black Flash?" Lu Suo turned around in surprise, rarely seeing him with such an expression. "How long has it been since he learned to use magical power?"

"Because he has Su Nuo within him." The real man shrugged nonchalantly. "He senses the soul outline of the King of Curses every day, so it's only natural."

Lu Suo sat down on the rock again and looked at Lou Hu, which was still recovering.

"Louhu will miss the exchange meeting," he said. "Hanayu's severed arm has been repaired, but in its current state, its chances of winning against Kujo Mashiro are not high."

"Then should we give up the exchange meeting?"

"Of course we won't give up." Lu Suo stretched out his finger and said, "The exchange meeting itself is not the goal; the cursed fetus and Sukuna finger in the high school are the focus."

Lou Hu listened and slowly said, "You still intend to carry out your plan?"

The real person swam over to Louhu and looked at it, saying, "Louhu, I just had contact with Su Nuo, and he definitely has that value."

"Collect all the fingers and offer them to Sukuna?" It smiled faintly. "In the end, we'll all be wiped out, right?"

"Oh, you know that?" Makoto scratched his head and said, "Indeed, Sukuna will definitely kill us."

Louhu pondered for a moment and said, "Alright then, even if I'm the one laughing a hundred years from now, it doesn't have to be me, as long as it's a cursed world."

"So it's settled then?" Lu Suo said, "Reclaim the first to third cursed fetuses and the six fingers from the high school."

"Do we need to take back his fingers? Will the vocational high school feed him too?" Louhu asked doubtfully.

"No, no, Gao Zhuan doesn't know how many fingers he'll eat before he loses control, so he'll definitely collect all the fingers before letting him eat them."

"Then how do we hack in?" the real person chimed in.

"I already have arrangements, which is why I asked you to have that finger retrieved by the college. Even though it was eaten, it doesn't matter."

"You can arrange everything, but what should I do after I get the items?"

"Then retreat immediately." Rōsō stood up and said, "After you get the item, come out and help Hanami. She needs your assistance to leave. If Kūjō Mashiro pursues, use the reverse technique to restrain her once. You only need to buy her three seconds."

"The reverse approach might only work once more on her." Zhenren held up a finger and shook it. "No matter what, it definitely won't work a third time."

"Once is enough. Hanako can disappear into the forest in just three seconds."

After thinking for a moment, Makoto grinned and said, "Alright, I don't want to fight Gojo Satoru anyway, I'll die."

"This exchange meeting isn't the final battle; it's preparation for Shibuya." He paused, looking at Masato and Rugo, and said.

"Especially Kujo Mashiro. I only saw a part of her abilities during the last battle. I need to know all of her current spell reserves."

"She will definitely step in as an outside guard on the day of the exchange meeting; that will be the best opportunity for observation."

"Understood." Makoto emerged from the hot spring, changed into a new set of clothes, and said, "I'll wait for you in the forest tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you guys. I can't show my face in front of them yet."

"Yes, yes, I understand." Makoto finished dressing and stretched. "Speaking of which, what if I'm killed by Mashiro before I even get to Hanamichi?"

"Hana-Mori's regeneration rate in the forest is three times faster than usual. Unless Kujo Mashiro can find its core before Hana-Mori completely disappears into the forest, it won't die. And Hana-Mori is better at escaping than you."

Lu Suo didn't look up, crossed his arms over his chest, and said with a mysterious smile, "Or you could do it like this..."

The man listened intently, his eyes shining with excitement, and he nodded from time to time.

"Oh, this works!"

......

There are only 2 days left until the sister school exchange competition.
