Someone in the Multiverse, Transformed into Fu Hua at the Start Chapter 39

The Herrscher of Reason shot back bluntly: "Besides, if you don't learn these things, how can you call yourselves advanced beings? What's the difference between you and beasts that just follow their instincts?"

"Learning these proves there's a difference?"

Jogo wasn't buying it: "What's all this about debuting as idols!? We're noble cursed spirits—there's no possibility of reconciling with humans or performing for them!"

The Herrscher of Reason gave him another big slap: "That's exactly it, rock is about expressing your anger and your vision. A winner in life can't play rock!"

Liaoliang still hadn't fully grasped the situation, but the Herrscher of Reason's imposing pressure made his scalp tingle.

"Are you not understanding me, or are you playing dumb!?"

Jogo grew angrier: "Do you really think this is a way to let cursed spirits walk in the sunlight!?"

"Do I need you to tell me that?"

Being questioned constantly, the Herrscher of Reason got annoyed: "Who understands humans better, you or me? If you cursed spirits don't adapt to the times and change yourselves, you'll all be dead in a few years!"

"What did you say!?"

Hearing this, Jogo was both furious and shocked. The other was a cursed spirit too, and an extremely powerful one at that, so he didn't think she was lying—yet he couldn't believe it.

If before he thought he was the strongest under heaven, now he was truly facing the 'heaven' itself, and that heaven was saying cursed spirits had less than a year to live—how could he not be terrified?

"I'll be blunt. If you can't coexist with humans, your death won't come later than ten years."

The Herrscher of Reason laid her cards on the table.

The Jujutsu Kaisen plot was indeed about a year long. She knew Amber well—though Amber seemed introverted and kind, she actually had a childlike cruelty. It was obvious from when she let Gogh escape back in Uruk.

For deaths that didn't happen right in front of her, she simply didn't have the mind to care.

And based on her guess about Amber, if given the chance, Amber would definitely spend a considerable amount of time in this world—at least until all her friends died of old age.

In that case, cursed spirits were just in the way.

As enemies of humanity, and as threats to her friends' world, it was easy to foresee Amber wiping out all cursed spirits before she left.

How to prevent cursed spirits from being born? Simple—learn to control Cursed Energy.

If Amber could teach the whole world to control Cursed Energy, even if not everyone learned it, as long as 70% of people mastered it, cursed spirits would be as good as dead on arrival.

This goal might be difficult for others, but for Amber, who possessed Feathered Dust and whose strength surpassed the entire world combined, it wasn't impossible.

So if cursed spirits wanted to live, they had to change. And coincidentally, the great Herrscher of Reason was interested in cursed spirits and wanted some fun, which was why she came to show them a way out.

Chapter 19 Navigator: Your servant cannot do this.

Though often criticized for his behavior and questionable tastes, Gojo Satoru was very responsible when it came to teaching.

With his Six Eyes, he could easily see the flow of Cursed Energy in others. Under these conditions, guiding someone step by step in how to use Cursed Energy was as easy as drinking water for him. The only difficulty was the person's own comprehension.

After fully familiarizing Amber and Itadori with the campus, Gojo began guiding them in Cursed Energy control and learning. But the results surprised him.

Itadori Yuji himself had no natural affinity for Cursed Energy. He had gained Sukuna's Cursed Energy by eating one of his fingers, which started his career as a Jujutsu Sorcerer. Given Itadori's physical talent, mastering Cursed Energy usage should have been easy, yet he somehow couldn't grasp the key.

But thinking about it, it had only been the first day—this pace seemed normal.

However, because the other case was abnormal, it created a sense of falling short for Gojo.

Shier Fulei lived a warm life. Though she needed part-time jobs to supplement her household income, she actually had living expenses from the dean. Working showed her love for her home and her desire to make it better.

The Cursed Energy on Shier also proved she had very few negative emotions, making her unsuitable for the Jujutsu world. Yet, the girl's control over Cursed Energy made him wonder if she also had Six Eyes.

Cursed Energy was power born from human negative emotions. Ordinary people couldn't control it, so it leaked out and generated cursed spirits.

Conversely, using Cursed Energy meant using this power without letting it escape the body.

But Shier could not only control her own Cursed Energy and the curse's Cursed Energy, but also manipulate the Cursed Energy leaking from Itadori. Her manipulation was so smooth and delicate that it was almost on par with his Six Eyes.

"How is this possible?"

Even with Six Eyes, Gojo couldn't figure out the principle.

Of course, it was because of Tai Xu Sword Qi.

But Amber couldn't say that, so she just stammered without giving a clear answer.

Gojo didn't really want to pry into the details anyway. The girl had just entered the Jujutsu world—it would be strange if she could explain it clearly. All he knew was that she had extraordinary talent for Cursed Energy manipulation.

With that kind of talent, she might even master Reverse Cursed Technique as quickly as Shoko did.

Though Gojo himself could use Reverse Cursed Technique, unfortunately, his version could only be used on himself, not to heal others. Currently, the only ones confirmed to have fully mastered Reverse Cursed Technique were Shoko and Yuta Okkotsu, who was abroad.

Teaching at Jujutsu High wasn't limited to academics and Cursed Energy manipulation. An important part was physical combat training.

Cursed spirits could only be exorcised with Cursed Energy. Since Itadori wasn't yet skilled in applying it, Gojo directly opened the school's warehouse and gave him a cursed tool. Cursed tools were inherently imbued with Cursed Energy, making them perfectly fine for killing cursed spirits.

Amber, however, declined, saying she already had a weapon.

Though Gojo didn't see any weapon on Amber, having fought Black Amber before, he naturally thought of that scythe.

Since both had weapons, the next step was physical combat training.

"Since the second-years are all out on missions, you'll fight against me."

Gojo said.

He really wanted to know Shier's baseline strength—it was necessary for arranging her future missions and teaching.

Amber didn't waste words either, directly pulling out Tong Yao and swinging it at Gojo Satoru in a somewhat haphazard manner.

It wasn't that she didn't want to learn, but aside from Black Amber and Fu Hua, even the Navigator couldn't help with this. The Navigator could only assist by replicating everything the current character card already knew one-to-one, but if it wasn't known, then there was nothing it could do.

After all, it was just a navigator, not the Main Control Consciousness. If the Main Control Consciousness was the system itself, then it was merely a module branch of the system, like a phone and its built-in AI assistant—strictly speaking, it wasn't even as good as an AI assistant, at best an app inside the phone.

Shier from the Sea of Quantization had all her combat power placed on Black Shier, so even if Amber wanted to learn, the Navigator couldn't help.

And even if Black Amber and Fu Hua wanted to teach, Amber had been in this world for less than 24 hours in total, counting sleep, rest, and time interacting with others, so there was no opportunity to teach.

Watching the girl swing her scythe at him, Gojo Satoru dodged with ease. Amber immediately planned to use her solid lower body and body control to reverse the scythe and "slice" it back, but suddenly realized this wasn't something "Shier" should be able to do.

So, she could only stumble slightly, pulled by the scythe.

She hadn't mastered Tai Xu Sword Qi, but she'd already learned most of the sword forms—how could she have unstable footing? Yet the girl wielding a massive weapon and losing her balance from its weight was also part of Shier's charm. Unless it was an emergency, Amber still had to preserve that.

Gojo Satoru didn't know Amber's inner thoughts; instead, he dodged while evaluating her combat level.

How to put it... it really wasn't bad.

Though her lack of combat experience left her moves with noticeable flaws, the problem was that catching those flaws required keeping up with the girl's movements.

Sure, Gojo dodged easily. Cursed Energy could enhance physical abilities, and the girl herself had little Cursed Energy, but she carried a Special Grade Curse on her. With that enhancement, even a Grade 2 Jujutsu Sorcerer would be chased until they lost their bearings and end up severely injured within a few rounds.

Even an experienced Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer, facing this relentless assault, would be caught off guard in the first exchange.

But that was it. With a Grade 1 Sorcerer's Cursed Energy reserves, techniques, and combat experience, they wouldn't be hurt by this combination.

Grade 1 and Special Grade were worlds apart, but Grade 2 and Grade 1 also had a massive gap.

Some Grade 1s could trade blows with Grade 2s, while others could easily one-shot them. They remained Grade 1 only because the gap to Special Grade was even larger.

But Gojo Satoru didn't think the girl would necessarily be dominated by a Grade 1. After all, this was just pure physical combat. He knew she could still use that bizarre, powerful technique called "Quantization."

He'd already seen her use it for instant teleportation. If she wielded that ability well, even a Grade 1 Sorcerer might fall to a first-time encounter.

After assessing both their combat capabilities, Gojo Satoru's mood improved. Fresh, strong blood was excellent news for him. In high spirits, he announced he'd take the two, along with Fushiguro Megumi still in the dorm, out for a big meal, and casually mentioned that a new student would be enrolling tomorrow.

Chapter 20: Shopping Street.

In recent decades, Harajuku, as a symbol of street culture, had become one of Tokyo's most iconic fashion hotspots. Everywhere were trendy boutiques and cafes, a great place for those seeking cute, avant-garde, and unconventional styles.

Since Gojo Satoru had a mission last night and didn't stay at Jujutsu High, he had Fushiguro Megumi lead the group, bringing Amber and Itadori to this place.

"Another Special Grade Curse... I feel like Special Grade keeps coming up these past few days."

Since Gojo hadn't arrived yet, the three chatted in front of the station.

After learning about Amber's situation, Fushiguro Megumi couldn't help but sigh.

Back then, he'd thought she wasn't suited for this world and hoped she'd stay away from the jujutsu world. But there was no staying away—with a Special Grade Curse on her, the jujutsu higher-ups would never let such an existence roam freely.

"But isn't it fine? At least Sister Shier doesn't have to face execution."

Itadori laughed: "I wish I were that strong. Ryomen Sukuna sounds impressive, but he seems far weaker than Sister Shier's curse."

Gojo Satoru hadn't fully explained the situation to Itadori, not because he couldn't, but simply because he thought it better for the students to understand each other on their own.

Amber had nothing to hide, so she told the two about her first day in the jujutsu world.

Hearing Amber's experience and situation, Itadori Yuji was green with envy. They were both Incarnations, so why could she so naturally say, "Please, the other me"?

Dual personalities, with the other one saving the day in a crisis—it was like a manga protagonist, and she'd even one-shot a terrifying Special Grade Cursed Spirit right after appearing.

Thinking this, Itadori couldn't help but feel disdain for Sukuna: "Calling yourself the King of Curses, but you're far worse than the other Sister Shier."

"Kid, if you want to see my true power, hurry up and collect my fingers."

Sukuna never expected to be looked down on by his own Incarnation. Irritated, he spat threats: "When you've collected all my fingers, I'll spare you for a while and let you watch me slaughter your classmates and that so-called Special Grade Curse."

"That's impossible—I'll suppress you. And don't suddenly pop out; we're on a public street!"

Itadori slapped the mouth that appeared below his eye.

"The other me has something to say..."

Seeing Sukuna fall silent, Amber relayed Black Amber's original words: "King of Curses? Just a mortal born in an era without me."

Sukuna: ???

Though this line, meant to be domineering and contemptuous, was greatly diminished by the girl's personality in the retelling, it was enough to show she didn't regard him at all.

"Brat! I'll make you regret those words! You and the girl you're Incarnated in—I'll devour every last bone!"

"Don't pop out! Can't you learn from the other Sister Shier?"

Itadori frowned, covering the mouth on the back of his hand with his other hand.

Sukuna couldn't be bothered to argue with this foolish host.

"Oh, looks like you're all getting along?"

Just then, Gojo Satoru's voice came from the station direction. Everyone looked over and saw him in a black-purple high-collared uniform, black blindfold, and his hair tied up like a badminton shuttlecock.

"Teacher? Why that outfit?"

Itadori Yuji almost didn't recognize him.

"Hmm~ Actually, this is my classic skin now."

Gojo Satoru chuckled, then looked at the three of them, especially Yuji. "Looks like the effect isn't bad. How does it feel? This temporary school uniform."

"It's not bad."

Yuji moved his arms. "Movement is smooth, and I can't even cut it with scissors, but why does it look different from Fushiguro's?"

"If you make a request, the uniform can be customized."

Gojo explained, "This was personally designed by your teacher Gojo, you know~"

"Huh? Is that so?"

Yuji looked at his clothes. They really weren't bad.

Fushiguro said coldly, "Be careful. This is Gojo-sensei's old habit—he always does unnecessary things."

Yuji didn't mind much, instead looking at Amber with a regretful expression. "But out of the four of us, only Shier-chan is wearing casual clothes. Won't it look weird standing together?"

Amber was still in her 'classic skin'—after all, it was the outfit that came with her character card, and she hadn't had time to buy clothes these past two days, so she had to make do.

Come to think of it, Nobara loved shopping. Amber had been stuck in the hospital and hadn't gone out much, so she was looking forward to shopping too. Maybe the two of them would get along.

"After all, little Shier isn't a Jujutsu High student. But really, wouldn't it be better for a student to wear the original uniform? If she goes out in casual clothes on a weekday, might she be mistaken for a delinquent girl..."

Gojo actually started thinking seriously about it.

Fushiguro interrupted, "No one would mistake Shier for a delinquent girl. And besides, isn't there a new student enrolling? Why are we gathering here?"

"Oh, because that person requested it."

Gojo explained, "She's shopping here right now. It's still early, so let's walk around and look for her. The Jujutsu High uniform is very noticeable. When you see her, just go say hello."

"Ohhh!"

Yuji was actually looking forward to Harajuku too, which was why he had no objections to coming here.
