How can we make it possible for all of humanity to see Cursed Spirits?
What fate awaits the Jujutsu Sorcerers?
Inside the Kamui dimension, Mai Zenin didn't ask White Zetsu any more questions. Her mind was filled with an extremely terrifying sense of absurdity.
If what White Zetsu said came true, it wouldn't just be Japan.
If billions of ordinary humans suddenly saw the invisible horrors lurking in the dark, the sheer volume of negative emotions—panic, terror, despair, hatred—would erupt on a planetary scale.
What kind of monster will that create? she thought, trembling. What kind of terrifying Curse could be born from the fear of the entire human race?
...
Shibuya. 23:57.
Within the Domain of Yuki Tsukumo, at the very millisecond the exponentially multiplied, virtual-mass fists were about to strike Zenin Mirai.
A completely different aura of Cursed Energy surged wildly and intensely!
"Domain Expansion: Chimera Shadow Garden: Perfected."
The indifferent tone of Mirai's voice had barely faded before the world changed.
A thick, dark ink erupted from his shadow, completely blocking out the lights of the boxing ring and instantly annihilating all the cheering spectators formed from Yuki's Cursed Energy.
The surging, boiling waves of ink crashed violently against the barriers of Yuki's Domain with overwhelming force.
Because two Domains had clashed, their guaranteed sure-hit effects canceled each other out. Before Yuki's multiplied fists could even land on Mirai, they were violently pushed back to the edge of the Domain by the tidal wave of shadows!
Sizzle—CRACK!!!
BOOM!!!
The outer shell of Yuki's Domain shattered with a deafening crash, dissipating rapidly into the night!
Stepping onto the thick, inky black ground, Yuki's expression mirrored that of everyone else from Jujutsu High.
Absolute terror.
"No outer shell..." Yuki murmured in disbelief, looking at the calm Mirai across from her.
They were still standing within the physical battlefield sealed off by the blood-red roots of the Gedo Mazo. But the floor had become a bottomless sea of shadows.
And there was something else.
Gazing past Mirai, Yuki saw it. Towering tens of meters high behind him was a massive, jet-black throne made entirely of shadows! The throne was engraved with extremely intricate Cursed symbols at every meter.
In the crowd, Megumi Fushiguro stared at the thick ink rising above his ankles, and then at the ten different graphic markings engraved on the throne. Cold sweat poured down his back.
"The Ten Shadows Technique!" Megumi gasped.
As a fellow Ten Shadows user, Megumi immediately recognized the Shikigami represented by those graphics!
Damn it!
Yuki's face was extremely gloomy. This was the worst possible outcome!
Zenin Mirai was actually able to control multiple innate techniques and Domains! And it was an open Domain with no outer shell—the pinnacle of Jujutsu skill!
...
Mirai sat down on the cold, shadowy throne.
He rested his forehead against his hand, his eyes gleaming with crimson light.
With a gentle flick of his fingers, the calm, ink-black sea erupted into chaos!
A dark shadow leaped out of the ground and instantly transformed into a ferocious beast five meters tall.
The Shikigami, Divine Dog: Totality, with its razor-sharp teeth and claws, possessed enough power to tear apart a Special Grade Curse.
SQUELCH!
With a single, blindingly fast claw swipe, it tore across Yuki's body, severely wounding her and disfiguring her beautiful face!
Because her Domain had just been shattered, Yuki was passively suffering from Cursed Technique Burnout. She couldn't use Star Rage to defend herself, nor could she deploy a Simple Domain fast enough.
Even without the guaranteed sure-hit effect needed, Mirai's Shikigami were too fast for her to dodge.
"Be careful, Tsukumo-senpai!" Megumi yelled.
"Upon entering the perfected Domain of the Ten Shadows, the user is no longer limited to summoning only two types of Shikigami at once!"
On the other side of the ink sea, a dozen highly skilled Sorcerers were huddled together inside Kusakabe and Miwa's Simple Domains, frantically fighting off an endless, swarming tide of Escape Rabbits and Toads.
While fighting off the swarm, Megumi loudly reminded Yuki of the rules.
"The number of identical Shikigami depends solely on the caster's Cursed Energy reserves!" Megumi shouted. "Moreover, the caster can instantly teleport anywhere within the shadows! And he can create perfect shadow clones of himself!"
But Megumi's voice grew softer and softer, trailing off into silence.
He knew perfectly well that... in this situation, even if he told Yuki the rules, it wouldn't make any difference.
Their fates depended entirely on the mood of the figure sitting on the throne.
...
The reason Megumi was able to accurately describe the characteristics of the Domain was that his own incomplete Domain, Chimera Shadow Garden, operated on the same principles. It was the innate realm of the Ten Shadows Technique.
As Megumi had said, Mirai was the absolute Emperor of Shadows within this 150-meter radius.
Mirai had no limit to the types or number of Shikigami he could summon. It consumed a negligible amount of his vast Cursed Energy. He required no hand signs or time intervals. He could appear anywhere he wanted in a fraction of a second.
Looking down at the blood-soaked Yuki Tsukumo, Mirai pondered.
To kill, or not to kill.
Should I kill her now, or let Kenjaku deal with her later?
It was still a bit upsetting that Kenjaku had managed to escape and get exactly what he wanted without doing the heavy lifting.
"Forget it. We'll see how lucky you are," Mirai said in a nonchalant tone.
"Tsukumo Yuki, you are at your limit. If you can hold on and survive this, you'll live a little longer. If you can't... then you should just die now."
Mirai didn't hesitate anymore.
He gently swiped his slender fingers downward.
The sea of shadows spread and boiled rapidly!
On the throne behind him, the most intricate and terrifying symbol at the very top shimmered with a faint, fluorescent glow.
BOOM!!!
Roaring out from the shadows, three terrifying Shikigami erupted into the physical world!
Each was five meters tall. Their bodies were covered in bulging muscles. Four white wings grew from their eye sockets, and a golden, eight-handled wheel hovered above their heads. The demon-slaying Blades of Extermination strapped to their right arms gleamed with a cold, holy light.
"Eight-Handled Sword Divergent Sila Divine General: Mahoraga!"
Blood trickled down Megumi's forehead as he turned his head and shouted the name, his voice filled with absolute despair.
In the past, when facing Special Grade Curses, Megumi always possessed the quiet confidence that he could force a mutual kill by summoning Mahoraga. It was his ultimate trump card.
But now, looking at the monster standing before Yuki Tsukumo... he realized Mirai could summon the most powerful Shikigami among the Ten Shadows casually, and in multiples.
Pity.
Lady Luck seemed to have failed Yuki Tsukumo.
The massive greatsword, gleaming with lethal positive energy, fell straight toward Yuki's neck!
She couldn't dodge. She couldn't block.
CLAP!!!
Aoi Todo's hands came together in a desperate Boogie Woogie!
SQUELCH!!!
