When powerful opponents fought.
If one side could deploy a domain while the other could not,
then the outcome of the battle would only become a complete and utter massacre.
That was even more true of Ronawa's "Between Existence and Nonexistence."
With ordinary domains, those Jujutsu Higher-Ups could at least put up some resistance with Simple Domains.
Although they would not last long, they could at least struggle a little.
But before "Between Existence and Nonexistence," they could not even deploy a domain, let alone a Simple Domain.
What was even more terrifying was that Ronawa's domain, aside from its heaven-defying effect,
also possessed the sure-hit effect carried by all domains, as well as an enhancement effect on Ronawa's own technique.
Ronawa's technique, "All Things Die," had already been absurdly powerful.
Now that it had been strengthened even further,
it had become completely unsolvable.
When Ronawa snapped her fingers and countless thousand-armed figures swung Death Feather Swords at the Higher-Ups,
the one-sided slaughter began without suspense.
Every swing of the sword inevitably triggered a Black Flash and carried the effect of "All Things Die."
It was the equivalent of critical damage, true damage, and an instant-death buff combined.
What mattered was that the frequency of those slashes was equally outrageous.
In this situation, let alone these Jujutsu Higher-Ups, who had long since lost most of their courage,
even if Satoru Gojo and Ryomen Sukuna came together, they would still be minced into meat paste.
The massacre took less than half a minute.
Ronawa withdrew her domain.
By then, the so-called Higher-Ups who had come intending to exorcise Ronawa
had already become a field of corpses.
They could not have been more dead.
That was right. So many Higher-Ups had lasted less than half a minute before Ronawa, who was going all out.
That was with quite a few of them carrying powerful Cursed Tools, including two Special-Grade Cursed Tools.
Even so, Ronawa had killed them all within half a minute.
Not only that, Ronawa had even "killed" those Cursed Tools too.
Who said Ronawa could not kill inanimate objects like Cursed Tools?
After completely ending the battle, Ronawa did not hurry to leave.
Instead, she stood where she was and properly adjusted to her explosively increased cursed energy.
That was right. After witnessing the deaths of so many powerful sorcerers,
Ronawa's cursed energy had directly undergone a massive surge.
This was what it meant to grow stronger by killing monsters.
After that surge, Ronawa's cursed energy was no longer much weaker than Satoru Gojo's.
As for cursed energy output efficiency, she was far stronger than Satoru Gojo.
Satoru Gojo's "Limitless Technique" truly could not compare to Ronawa's "All Things Die."
As a result, now that the difference in their cursed energy was no longer significant,
Ronawa's strength had already caught up with, or even surpassed, Satoru Gojo's.
If she fought Satoru Gojo again now, even if he did not hold back, Ronawa might not lose.
"Now I really don't need to eat beef anymore."
Ronawa opened her eyes in satisfaction.
The power inside her truly put her at ease!
From now on, she no longer needed to survive cautiously in this world as she had before.
She could walk around with complete impunity.
A conceptual existence like the Death Curse Spirit was simply too overpowered.
Good thing it was me.
Hehe!
After composing herself, Ronawa vanished from the spot.
It was getting late. Time to go back for dinner.
She wondered what Suguru Geto would make today.
On the other side of Tokyo,
Satoru Gojo followed Suguru Geto's cursed energy and eventually found him after searching all the way there.
However, Suguru Geto was in terrible condition, with barely any life force left.
Even if Satoru Gojo did nothing next, Suguru Geto would still die.
Seeing his best friend like this, Satoru Gojo felt indescribably conflicted.
He could not help stepping forward. "You're still the same as before. You really are an idiot!"
Hearing Satoru Gojo's voice, Suguru Geto raised his head.
A strained smile appeared on his face.
"Can't be helped. You infected me."
"After all, you were an idiot back then."
Before, if Suguru Geto had called him an idiot, Satoru Gojo would definitely have fired back.
Just like when they were young, when they often bickered together.
But now, Satoru Gojo had no desire to argue.
He merely watched Suguru Geto cough up blood without stopping.
"You should know I wouldn't let anything happen to her."
"Why did you still do this?"
Satoru Gojo asked Suguru Geto.
Suguru Geto understood Satoru Gojo well enough to guess that he would not truly let Ronawa come to harm.
Under such circumstances, Suguru Geto had not needed to launch the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons to stop those Jujutsu Higher-Ups.
Yet Suguru Geto had done it anyway.
The result was this: he had been beaten to the point of nearly dying on the spot.
Suguru Geto stopped coughing blood.
He looked up at Satoru Gojo, his eyes no longer narrowed as they usually were.
Instead, he stared directly into Satoru Gojo's Six Eyes and said, "I'm a little tired of it all."
"I spent my life working toward a goal that could never be achieved, and because of that, I did many wrong things."
"Now that the dream has ended, it's time for me to pay the price for what I did before!"
To put it plainly, Suguru Geto had actually come here seeking death.
It was true that he wanted to help and wanted Ronawa to survive.
But it was also true that he wanted to die, to give himself an ending and an explanation.
The two did not conflict.
That was why he had gone to Jujutsu High to block the entrance.
After understanding Suguru Geto's thoughts, Satoru Gojo sighed.
All he could say was that this was the Suguru Geto he knew.
An idealist.
For his ideals, he could become a curse user.
And after those ideals were shattered, he could face death to atone for his sins.
In the end, Satoru Gojo watched his best friend die before his eyes.
He then found a place to bury Suguru Geto before finally leaving that place of sorrow.
However, not long after Satoru Gojo left,
a woman in a kimono silently appeared before Suguru Geto's grave.
It was worth mentioning that there was an obvious stitch mark across the woman's forehead.
It was Kenjaku.
After returning to Suguru Geto's home, Ronawa skillfully found a comfortable position on the sofa and lay down.
Then she took out her phone and started playing to her heart's content.
Before long, the sisters Nanako Hasaba and Mimiko returned home.
When they saw Ronawa, both of them inexplicably felt much more at ease.
After all, they had been restless all day.
They had constantly felt as though they were about to lose something important.
Now that they saw Ronawa, that feeling of loss suddenly faded considerably.
After greeting her, Mimiko sat down on the sofa and started playing on her phone with Ronawa.
Nanako, meanwhile, returned to her room to do her homework.
After all, they were still high school girls.
But as more time passed, Suguru Geto still did not return home.
Nanako Hasaba and Mimiko both began to feel uneasy.
Ronawa frowned as well.
She had the feeling that she had overlooked something.
