She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth clean.
Satoru Gojo straightened up again.
Then he looked directly at Ronawa, who stood in the sky.
"I have to admit, you gave me a huge surprise."
"But I've won this battle!"
Satoru Gojo was immensely confident, his tone as if he were merely stating a fact.
And he wasn't wrong.
In fact, Ronawa truly had no chance of winning this battle.
She had suffered from being born too late.
It did not need to be much—even if Ronawa had been born around a year earlier.
She would now be able to beat Satoru Gojo senseless.
Unfortunately, there were no ifs.
Still, although Ronawa could not win, if the target of her earlier "All Things Die" had not been Satoru Gojo's technique, but Satoru Gojo himself—
Satoru Gojo definitely would not have gotten off lightly.
Even if he had not been killed outright, he would have suffered permanent, devastating damage.
A large part of his very existence would have been sentenced to death!
If that had happened, forget maintaining his strength as the strongest of the modern era.
Whether he could still live as a normal person would have been questionable.
Simply put, Ronawa had no chance of defeating Satoru Gojo right now.
But she did have the ability to perish alongside him.
Her "All Things Die" indeed lacked the power to kill Satoru Gojo directly.
The main reason was that Ronawa's current total cursed energy was insufficient for that.
But killing a major portion of the concept of Satoru Gojo's existence would not have been a problem.
She simply had not chosen to do so.
And that declared the outcome of this battle.
Satoru Gojo instantly teleported to Ronawa's side.
Then he formed hand seals and began to chant.
And then came... Domain Expansion.
Unlimited Void!!!
Previously, when facing Satoru Gojo's Unlimited Void.
Ronawa could at least escape by killing distance.
As long as she teleported far enough away the instant Satoru Gojo made his move.
She could evade Satoru Gojo's Domain Expansion.
But unfortunately, that earlier All Things Die that had killed "Blue and Red" had nearly drained all the cursed energy from Ronawa's body.
Leaving her unable to activate "All Things Die" again.
She could only watch helplessly as Satoru Gojo teleported to her side and deployed his domain.
In an instant, Ronawa was drowned in an endless flood of useless information.
Her thoughts immediately froze, and her soul crashed outright.
Unlimited Void was simply too absolute.
However, at that moment, an unexpected change occurred.
From the deepest core of Ronawa's soul, the part that represented death as an ultimate concept suddenly began to flicker.
And Ronawa's consciousness arrived in a strange place.
It was an entirely gray world, devoid of the concepts of space and time.
Before Ronawa stood only an enormous black hole surrounded by a halo of light.
"Where is this?"
Ronawa was confused, unable to understand why she had appeared here.
But soon, the instincts originating from the Death Curse Spirit gradually allowed her to understand everything.
And as her understanding deepened, the corners of Ronawa's mouth could not stop rising.
"Wonderful. I'm gradually beginning to understand everything."
"So this is the end of death, the destination of all things and every concept!"
"It is also the authority of my true core essence!"
Fear came from the unknown.
And fear of the unknown came from the fatal danger within it.
At its root, it was fear of the consequences that unknown dangers could bring.
Namely, death!
Then what were the end and origin of death?
Why did all things fear death so deeply?
There was one and only one answer!
Nothingness!
The end of death was nothingness!
People feared death because death erased all existence.
Death meant that every proof of a living being's self-existence would be swallowed by nothingness.
The core of life was: I think, therefore I am.
And death was the end of self-awareness.
It was the end of one's self-existence.
And the ultimate form of death was nothingness!
It was also the most fundamental authority Ronawa possessed as the Death Curse Spirit.
Of course, she was not nothingness itself, but she could define the boundary between nothingness and existence.
She could define whether something was "there" or "not there"!
She stood Between Existence and Nonexistence.
Turning the existence of things into nothingness.
That was "death," and that was her true authority!
After understanding her own essence, her true authority, and her power.
Ronawa naturally comprehended a domain that belonged to her.
And at that moment, she regained her consciousness.
The massive torrent of useless information from Unlimited Void.
At this moment, it completely lost its effect on her.
This bug-level domain that Satoru Gojo had been so proud of.
Was completely ineffective against her!
Within the domain of Unlimited Void, Satoru Gojo silently counted the time.
After about ten seconds, Satoru Gojo planned to dispel his domain.
Being filled with too much useless information could turn someone into an idiot.
He had not intended to treat Ronawa that way.
But just as Satoru Gojo prepared to form hand seals and cancel his domain.
He discovered that Ronawa, whose eyes had remained closed, suddenly opened them.
Those golden pupils were glowing now, making even Satoru Gojo's heart tighten.
What he felt even more was confusion. "How is that possible? You shouldn't have been able to wake up."
"Could it be... a domain?"
In the Jujutsu Society, only a domain could counter another domain.
Different domains could neutralize one another and cancel each other out.
Of course, that was only if the difference in their level was not too great.
Otherwise, one would still be crushed.
For example, Jogo's domain had been crushed by Satoru Gojo's Unlimited Void.
And given how absurd Ronawa was, if she had comprehended a domain.
She truly could neutralize the characteristics of Unlimited Void.
Ronawa's words confirmed Satoru Gojo's guess. "That's right. Thanks to you, I've comprehended my own domain as well."
"Want to witness it? You're the first person to get the chance!"
Seeing Ronawa's unconcealable smile, Satoru Gojo instinctively sensed danger.
That little brat Ronawa was definitely up to no good.
But Satoru Gojo's damned curiosity made it impossible for him to resist.
In the end, Satoru Gojo answered, "Then let me have a look."
"What exactly does the domain of the legendary Death Curse Spirit look like?"
"Then watch carefully."
Ronawa said with a smile.
Then her expression turned solemn as cursed energy surged.
The next moment, Domain Expansion!
Between Existence and Nonexistence!!!
As Ronawa unfolded her domain, an enormous black hole appeared before Satoru Gojo.
No, it was not a black hole.
The black hole was merely its outward form.
At its core was absolute nothingness!
Ronawa spoke at the right moment, explaining it to Satoru Gojo. "As you can see, this is my domain!"
"Between Existence and Nonexistence!"
"Within this domain, I define whether all things exist or do not exist!"
"If I say it exists, it exists. If I say it does not, it does not!"
"Want to challenge it?"
After Ronawa finished speaking, Satoru Gojo's expression gradually changed.
It became bitter.
To describe it specifically.
It was probably like Fire Punch.
He truly could not keep his expression under control anymore.
