Satoru moved.
In an instant, he swung a powerful punch toward what appeared to be a blind spot behind him.
Bang!
A Special Grade Gorilla Cursed Spirit, stitched together from human limbs, opened its fear-stricken face and let out a piercing roar.
"Beast, shut up." Satoru said coldly.
In the next instant, a terrifying force slammed into the top of the Special Grade Gorilla Cursed Spirit's head. Before the Cursed Spirit could react, Satoru grabbed its left hand. Then, fist after fist, imbued with Cursed Energy, hammered into the Cursed Spirit's skull—the place where the Cursed Energy was most concentrated.
Bang!
In just a few moments, that Special Grade Gorilla Cursed Spirit was instantly exorcised.
Satoru exhaled a breath of turbid air.
"Next." A smile of invincible arrogance filled his face.
As if responding to Satoru's wish, a distorted surge of Cursed Energy emanated from the level ground not far away.
"Jujutsu Sorcerer... die..."
A Special Grade Human-Head Cursed Spirit with disheveled hair floated eerily in mid-air.
Satoru looked at that Special Grade Cursed Spirit, it wasn't actually floating. If it were an ordinary First-Grade Sorcerer, they might have been ambushed by this Special Grade Cursed Spirit. This was because its true body was a chameleon beneath the human head, and that faint Cursed Energy could not escape the all-perceiving Six Eyes.
Bang!
Bang!
Before Satoru could make a move, two loud bangs, like explosions mixed with waves of Cursed Energy, echoed from behind him, causing him to sway slightly for a moment.
"Nice to meet you, Jujutsu Sorcerer. I am Tenshi, a Cursed Spirit born from human obsession. My Cursed Spirit friends and I do not wish to harm you. If you leave now, we will also stop." A humanoid Cursed Spirit that looked no different from a human said, showing a pure smile as it looked at Satoru.
Looking back, beside the Special Grade Cursed Spirit named Tenshi was a White Leopard Cursed Spirit covered in tobacco. Judging by their Cursed Energy connection, these two Cursed Spirits were likely 'twins,' meaning they had to be killed simultaneously, or they could not be completely exorcised.
Tenshi looked strange as well, with dark skin and a height of about 1.8 meters, wearing a coat stitched together from countless tobacco leaves and human skin.
"Sorry, I've never been one to shake hands and make peace with Cursed Spirits." Satoru said flippantly, his hands forming a seal for a certain Cursed Technique.
This kind of Cursed Spirit already possessed human thought patterns. They would never fulfill a contract and would strike the moment you let your guard down.
Bang!
"Sneak attacks aren't a good habit, Cursed Spirit." Satoru said, simply maintaining his standing posture.
Looking at Satoru's right shoulder, the Special Grade Human-Head Cursed Spirit was only one finger's width away from Satoru. At this moment, it was frozen beside him, unable to move.
Tenshi narrowed his eyes as he looked at Satoru.
"Infinity is something that exists everywhere in this world. Between you and me, there is a layer of infinity." Satoru said, raising one hand.
Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue!
Buzz!
Terrifying Cursed Energy surged from his palm.
Beneath the human-head Cursed Spirit, the dark red chameleon body finally appeared. Realizing something, it began to frantically wave its ten human legs.
Tenshi just watched.
Bang!
The human-head Cursed Spirit was instantly crushed into a puddle of purple blood, and then the Cursed Energy gradually dissipated.
Satoru had killed two Special Grade Cursed Spirits with basically zero effort.
"Next, it's your turn," Satoru's gaze fell upon Tenshi.
He didn't care what this guy's Cursed Technique was, he was certain it wasn't as powerful as his own.
Tenshi pressed his hands together in a reverse palms-up position.
Snap!
In an instant, the previously level ground began to be covered by Cursed Energy.
"Domain Expansion: Smoky Peak!"
A snow-capped mountain rose from the ground.
Tenshi and the white leopard stood at the summit.
Satoru stood at the foot of the mountain.
"Domain Expansion? This domain is quite irritating to the nose." Satoru frowned.
He seemed to smell a smoke odor even more unpleasant than the one on Shoko.
Tenshi spoke in a raspy voice, "Jujutsu Sorcerer, don't talk nonsense. This domain of mine is the human obsession with e-cigarettes. It's the reformist style and doesn't smell that strong, don't slander it."
Satoru didn't respond. Instead, he looked at the White Leopard beside Tenshi.
That Cursed Spirit was also emitting the same smell.
The White Leopard let out a piercing and distorted cry. "Traditional cigarettes! Traditional cigarettes!!!"
"Domain Expansion: Fusion: Smoke Rashomon!"
What?!
Two domains fused?!
Satoru's pupils constricted.
This was the first time he had ever heard of the concept of Domain Fusion, but he quickly regained his composure.
In the Jujutsu World, there was a saying: Twins are more ominous than those born with disabilities. Because their power was originally meant to be one, the splitting of the soul into twins caused their power to be divided as well.
For example, Zenin Ogi's twin daughters, Maki and Mai—Maki's Heavenly Restriction only fully awakened after Mai's death.
"Twin Cursed Spirits?" Satoru's blue eyes quietly looked at the two Cursed Spirits.
Tenshi frowned.
He clearly hadn't expected this Jujutsu Sorcerer, who looked to be only in his teens, to be able to see through the relationship between him and the White Leopard at a glance.
"Jujutsu Sorcerer, you have some skill. You're a cut above the guys who came a while ago, but you're still only at that level."
Smoke Bomb: Pull Leakage!
Tenshi raised a hand.
Countless spheres of Cursed Energy flashing with black lightning filled the entire sky within the domain.
Attacks within a domain are guaranteed to hit, this was common knowledge.
Satoru sneered, "If this is all you've got..."
Rumble!!
Terrifying lightning flashed frantically and the ground began to crack, the fissures spreading in all directions.
A mist of snow rose from the foot of the mountain.
"Is he dead?" The White Leopard's distorted voice rang out.
"No... is he a monster?" Tenshi frowned.
As a Cursed Spirit born from human obsession, he was exceptionally sensitive to intent. He could feel that Satoru's killing intent toward him hadn't changed in the slightest.
"Attack." Tenshi made an immediate decision.
They had to crush him before the Jujutsu Sorcerer could react.
The White Leopard opened its large mouth, and Rashomon gates of Cursed Energy, mixed with the stench of tobacco, surrounded the foot of the mountain.
Then, countless sheep-type Cursed Spirits emitting a smoky stench swarmed out. The smoke surrounding them would cause a victim's lungs to wither within a minute and induce a massive nicotine addiction. After the victim's death, they would become one of those semi-First-Grade sheep-type Cursed Spirits—the Lung-Itch Sheep.
"This time he should..."
"What are you mumbling about?" Satoru's voice instantly interrupted the White Leopard.
He saw Satoru standing quietly in the center. The nearby gases and Cursed Spirits were all stalled five meters away from him, as if an invisible membrane separated them.
"If it were any other Jujutsu Sorcerer, they'd probably have died on the spot. As a domain fused from two, this domain has one fatal flaw. It looks like you're the strongest Cursed Spirits here, huh? That's really boring then. Die, Cursed Spirits."
Satoru's left index finger was tucked behind his middle finger.
"Domain Expansion: Unlimited Void."
