"This is—"
Looking at the card in front of him, Cao Ye was stunned.
Although this weapon only appeared a few times in Jujutsu Kaisen, it left a deep impression on countless fans.
Especially its user, who shocked many people.
Special Grade Cursed Tool – Inverted Spear of Heaven
It was a uniquely shaped short dagger-type weapon.
It only appeared briefly in Gojo Satoru's memories, yet it was the weapon that nearly killed Gojo.
In fact, Gojo later destroyed it himself because he feared its power.
The ability of the Inverted Spear of Heaven was simple—
But extremely broken.
It forcibly nullified any active cursed technique.
If it touched a cursed technique, that technique would be immediately cancelled.
The effect was straightforward—
Yet terrifying.
In Jujutsu Kaisen, its wielder Toji Fushiguro used it to neutralize Gojo's Infinity, allowing him to defeat Gojo.
If Toji had finished Gojo off with that weapon back then—
There would have been no "Strongest Sorcerer" Gojo Satoru afterward.
Click.
Cao Ye materialized the weapon.
The moment he held the Inverted Spear of Heaven in his hand, he was slightly shocked.
Inside the weapon he could feel an overwhelming curse.
That was the true nature of a cursed tool.
A cursed tool was essentially a weapon that carried a curse.
But this wasn't the world of Jujutsu Kaisen.
This world didn't have curses or cursed energy.
Could the weapon still function?
Whoosh.
Cao Ye swung it lightly.
The balance felt excellent.
Compared to the black sword, the Inverted Spear of Heaven was much better suited for Ratio Technique (7:3).
And combining cursed techniques with a cursed tool felt far more natural.
"Hmm? What's this…"
Suddenly—
The All the Evils of This World inside Cao Ye began to stir.
At the same time, the curse within the spear began leaking out.
The two forces interacted.
Within moments—
Everything fell silent again.
However, Cao Ye could clearly feel the difference.
The original curse inside the spear had disappeared.
In its place was something else—
Malice.
The malice of All the Evils of This World.
The weapon's appearance hadn't changed.
But internally, it had undergone a complete transformation.
The former Special Grade Cursed Tool had become something new—
A Cursed Tool of Evil.
Because of this, holding the spear felt completely natural to Cao Ye.
As if it were an extension of his arm.
"I was planning to forge a new weapon."
"Looks like that's unnecessary now."
Cao Ye admired the spear.
He liked it more the longer he looked at it.
Lying on his bed, his thoughts slowly relaxed.
Today had been incredibly eventful.
He had finally reached Floor 18 of the dungeon and visited the adventurer town inside.
He even met the local gang leader there.
Then came a monster attack, allowing him to secretly collect a huge amount of magic stones.
At night he attended a banquet, clashed with Apollo Familia, and even cut off the arm of their captain.
He had completely become enemies with Apollo Familia.
"Man… today was really full."
From morning to night, there wasn't a single dull moment.
Soon after, Cao Ye fell asleep.
He slept deeply.
By the time he woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.
"Hmm…"
Stretching lazily, Cao Ye got out of bed.
After washing up and tidying his appearance, he picked up his new weapon.
Naturally, he needed to test it in the dungeon.
When he stepped outside, he instinctively glanced at Freya's room.
Ottar wasn't standing guard there.
"Did she go out?"
Cao Ye muttered in surprise.
After spending over a month here, he had noticed something.
Freya rarely left Babel Tower.
Unless it was for:
A divine meetingA banquetOr important familia matters
Otherwise she stayed inside.
It wasn't because she was arrogant.
The real reason was her overwhelming charm.
If she simply walked down the street, everyone would fall under her spell.
Sometimes she even wore a magic cloak to hide her identity and suppress her charm.
That was also why she maintained a disguise at the tavern "Hostess of Fertility", working there as a waitress.
But Cao Ye didn't think too much about it.
He headed straight for the dungeon.
Step… step…
Entering the dungeon once again, Cao Ye no longer cared about the upper floors.
He went straight toward the middle floors.
The monsters he encountered along the way were simply ignored.
He had lost interest in these weak enemies.
Meanwhile…
In another part of Orario, within a shop on the bustling streets of the Eighth District.
"Alright, tell me."
"You dragged me here early in the morning."
"What's the matter this time?"
Goddess Loki sat on a chair, sounding somewhat annoyed.
She had originally planned to surprise Ais with a good morning greeting.
But she had been called out instead.
Such chances were rare.
After all, Ais was a training maniac, spending almost every day inside the dungeon.
"It's nothing serious."
"I just have a small favor to ask."
The person sitting across from Loki was Freya.
Today she wore a long robe, hiding her appearance completely.
"A small favor?"
"I'd love to hear how 'small' it is."
Loki snorted.
If it were truly small, Freya wouldn't have come this early in the morning.
Especially after last night's incident.
The news had already spread across Orario.
Freya's favored child had cut off Apollo Familia's captain's arm at Apollo's banquet.
The details didn't matter anymore.
People only cared about the explosive gossip.
Apollo Familia already had a bad reputation.
So plenty of people were enjoying the scandal.
And the rumors were only growing more exaggerated.
Who knew what they would turn into soon.
"I want to ask your Braver to train my child for a while."
"Finn?"
"Train your kid?"
"Wait… you mean that boy?!"
Loki was surprised.
But she was also confused.
Freya Familia had plenty of combat veterans.
Why ask Finn to teach him?
Wasn't that unnecessary?
