Exorcising the Death Curse Spirit!

"That damned guy. Arrogant bastard. Idiot."

"How dared he hide such a dangerous Curse Spirit?"

Yuki Tsukumo was completely stunned.

What Satoru Gojo had done went far beyond merely causing trouble.

He had practically placed a Sword of Damocles over everyone's heads, one that could fall at any moment.

Who knew when that sword would come down and take everyone's lives?

Satoru Gojo could clearly have eliminated that dangerous Death Curse Spirit from the very beginning.

Yet he had dragged it out until now.

The only thing worth being grateful for was that the Death Curse Spirit had yet to grow stronger.

It was not too late to kill her now.

Even so, Yuki Tsukumo still wanted nothing more than to beat Satoru Gojo to death.

He had been far too reckless.

Of course, the most urgent matter now was not interrogating Satoru Gojo.

It was dealing with the Death Curse Spirit.

To ensure they could accomplish that smoothly, Jujutsu Society's higher-ups had specifically sent Satoru Gojo away, lest he ruin things here.

At this moment, Ronawa could be considered completely isolated and helpless.

After all, they were going to exorcise the Death Curse Spirit.

The stakes were simply too high.

To ensure nothing went wrong, Jujutsu Society's higher-ups naturally would not send Yuki Tsukumo alone.

Besides Yuki Tsukumo, there were many members of the Three Great Families, as well as people from Kyoto Jujutsu High.

Simply put, they had laid down an inescapable net for Ronawa.

They intended to settle everything in a single battle and leave no future trouble behind.

Ronawa knew nothing of any of this.

However, when she returned from Suguru Geto's place,

she sensed that something was wrong as soon as she reached the area near Shoko Ieiri's home.

At that moment, Yuki Tsukumo, realizing she had been exposed, stepped out from the shadows as well.

"As expected of the Death Curse Spirit. Your senses really are sharp!"

"Even though I had restrained my cursed energy to the absolute limit, you still noticed me."

Yuki Tsukumo assumed Ronawa had sensed her cursed energy.

But in reality, "Well, that guy was staring at me way too intently."

"It was hard not to notice."

Ronawa looked toward Aoi Todo behind Yuki Tsukumo.

Aoi Todo, suddenly called out, froze for a moment before awkwardly scratching the back of his head.

Facing Yuki Tsukumo's furious glare, he weakly explained, "Well, she's just too beautiful."

"I couldn't help looking a few extra times."

Aoi Todo had originally thought his type was a hot blonde beauty with a figure like Yuki Tsukumo's.

But after seeing Ronawa, he suddenly realized something.

It was not that he simply preferred a particular type.

He just liked beautiful people!

Ronawa's beauty was the kind that could erase every difference in taste and appeal to everyone.

Besides, Ronawa had a damn nice figure too.

It was perfectly normal that Aoi Todo had been too captivated to snap out of it.

While Yuki Tsukumo looked at Aoi Todo with disgust,

Ronawa was also considering how her identity had been exposed.

After all, Yuki Tsukumo had immediately revealed her identity upon appearing.

Someone had clearly leaked the information.

The question was, how had it leaked?

Very few people knew Ronawa was the Death Curse Spirit.

Only Satoru Gojo, Suguru Geto, and Shoko Ieiri.

Of them, Shoko Ieiri was the least likely.

She was far too easy to control.

There was no way she could act like an obsessive, lovestruck puppy around Ronawa on one hand,

then sell her out at lightning speed on the other.

If she could pull that off, Ronawa would accept it.

After ruling out Shoko Ieiri, only Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto remained.

Satoru Gojo was unlikely. If he wanted to scheme against Ronawa, there was no need to make things so troublesome; he could just kill her.

Besides, Ronawa had managed to hide her identity as the Death Curse Spirit until now entirely because of Satoru Gojo.

So Satoru Gojo was ruled out first.

That left Suguru Geto.

That guy really could have betrayed Ronawa.

After all, he wanted to recruit Ronawa to his side.

The best method was to make Ronawa break with the jujutsu sorcerers.

And accomplishing that was actually very simple.

He only needed to leak Ronawa's identity.

Still, there were some doubts.

If Suguru Geto wanted the jujutsu sorcerers to hunt Ronawa down,

he had plenty of methods available. There was no need to flip the table so directly.

After all, Ronawa's identity as the Death Curse Spirit was Suguru Geto's leverage over her.

He would not casually reveal his trump card.

After thinking for a moment, Ronawa quickly came up with another possibility.

That was the mysterious "Master Tengen"!

Tengen was very powerful, and Tengen's barrier techniques were undoubtedly the strongest.

In fact, all of Japan lay within the barriers Tengen had set up.

That was also why Japan had so many jujutsu sorcerers and Curse Spirits, and why they were so powerful.

It was all Tengen's fault.

Furthermore, through the barrier covering Japan, Tengen could achieve something akin to omniscience.

In theory, Japan held no secrets from Tengen.

Tengen knew everything.

Including Ronawa's circumstances.

The more Ronawa thought about it, the more she felt Tengen was the most likely culprit.

This also made Ronawa remember Tengen completely.

She would remember this grudge.

If she got the chance in the future, she had to let Tengen experience what it felt like to be cut in half at the waist!

But for now, she first had to find a way to survive.

Her eyes swept around as she considered how to escape.

Naturally, Yuki Tsukumo noticed this as well.

She did not stop Ronawa, because a massive barrier soon descended out of nowhere.

Like a transparent glass dome, it enclosed the surrounding area.

Of course, that did not mean Ronawa could no longer escape.

In reality, Ronawa's method of fleeing by killing from a distance was practically impossible to counter.

It was just that using that method to escape now would consume far more than usual.

Because the area around them was enclosed by a barrier meant to seal in everything inside.

Breaking through it would require several times more cursed energy than normal.

They had clearly come prepared, intending to finish everything in one battle.

However, Ronawa was not particularly panicked.

She was no longer the same as before.

Did they really think she was still that weak little thing who could be kicked to death by any Special Grade?

Although Special-Grade Curses were weak when they had just been born,

even a Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer could potentially exorcise one.

At the same time, however, Special-Grade Curses grew very quickly.

They could easily become powerful.

Ronawa was even more so.

As the Death Curse Spirit, her growth rate was absolutely among the fastest of all Curse Spirits.

Therefore, Ronawa was no longer the same as before.

Anyone who still judged her by the old standard would only get themselves killed by her.

Yuki Tsukumo and the others had indeed shown sufficient respect.

They had dispatched not only a Special Grade Sorcerer, but also many elite Grade 1 and Grade 2 Jujutsu Sorcerers to surround and attack her.

But honestly, that amount of force was still nowhere near enough to take Ronawa down!
