Facing Kasumi Miwa's desperate pleas, Jie Jian gave a wicked smile.
"But I refuse!"
Rejected, Kasumi Miwa staggered and nearly fell to the floor.
Her face went deathly pale. She looked as though she had died, murmuring under her breath.
"I'm fighting Sukuna... Is this for real..."
Kasumi Miwa stared blankly at the ceiling, as if her soul had left her body.
At that moment, there was only one thought in her mind.
It's over. Completely over.
Other people return after Rebirth as kings.
Why was I being sent to my death?
Suddenly, Kasumi Miwa thought of something and exclaimed excitedly,
"Wait! Why do I have to fight Sukuna? I can just not go!"
Kasumi Miwa was right. Since Jie Jian had no intention of forcibly controlling her, she could indeed choose not to duel Sukuna.
However, Jie Jian's next words shattered her fantasy.
"Are you sure you don't want to go? If you don't, this Rebirth won't end."
Kasumi Miwa froze, then looked at Jie Jian hesitantly.
"Big Brother Jie, what do you mean? What do you mean the Rebirth won't end if I don't go?"
Jie Jian smiled lightly.
"Because you were reborn due to your desire to fight Sukuna. As long as you fail to defeat him, you'll keep being reborn until you succeed."
Kasumi Miwa's face turned pale, and instinctively, she began to feel afraid.
But in the next instant, she spotted the loophole.
"Mm!" Kasumi Miwa shouted excitedly. "Big Brother Jie, does that mean I won't die as long as I don't defeat Sukuna?"
"You could understand it that way."
"Holy crap! Really?! I can be reborn infinitely?"
Kasumi Miwa could hardly believe it.
If Jie Jian was telling the truth, didn't that mean she was effectively immortal, able to live endlessly through this period
