Kill Killing Intent and Guardedness, Suguru Geto Reappears!

It was undeniable that Satoru Gojo was reckless.

But one had to understand that Satoru Gojo was no fool.

After learning of Ronawa's ability,

no matter how reckless or confident he was,

there was no way he could truly trust Ronawa so completely.

After all, Ronawa was a cursed spirit, not a sorcerer.

Satoru Gojo could trust Yuta Okkotsu unconditionally, and he could trust Yuji Itadori unconditionally.

Because they were human by nature.

Ronawa was not.

Then why was Satoru Gojo protecting Ronawa as though his intelligence had dropped?

The answer was that Ronawa had used "All Things Die" to kill Satoru Gojo's killing intent and guardedness toward her.

It could only be said that Satoru Gojo had still underestimated Ronawa's "All Things Die."

Of course, Ronawa's "All Things Die" was also simply too absurd.

After all, what normal person would imagine that Ronawa could kill something as abstract as "killing intent and guardedness"?

But Ronawa had done it.

And she had done so without a sound.

In truth, Ronawa's "All Things Die" was not an especially flashy technique to begin with.

It activated silently.

Just like death.

Which often arrived without a sound.

Moreover, Ronawa's target had not been Satoru Gojo himself. She had merely killed his killing intent and guardedness.

Satoru Gojo had not possessed much killing intent or guardedness toward Ronawa in the first place.

Naturally, accomplishing it had been easy.

This was also why Satoru Gojo would rather oppose the higher-ups of Jujutsu Society than give up Ronawa.

It looked as if Satoru Gojo was preparing to charge recklessly across the whole map at full health.

But in truth, he had quietly fallen into Ronawa's trap.

As for Shoko Ieiri...

At the thought of that woman, Ronawa's expression became somewhat strange.

She swore that she truly had not done anything to Shoko Ieiri.

Nor had she killed anything of hers.

As for why that woman was treating her so well,

Ronawa could not figure it out either.

Could Shoko Ieiri actually be into women?

Her happy life as a freeloader was short-lived after all.

Before long, Ronawa encountered the person she least wanted to see right now.

Suguru Geto.

That day, Shoko Ieiri had gone to Jujutsu High to clock in for work as usual.

Meanwhile, Ronawa was at Shoko Ieiri's home, drinking the soda Shoko Ieiri had bought, enjoying the air conditioner Shoko Ieiri had purchased, and happily playing on Shoko Ieiri's computer.

Then Suguru Geto's irritating voice suddenly rang out. "A cursed spirit born from the concept of death, yet not enthusiastic about creating death."

"Honestly, I'm rather surprised!"

Seeing Suguru Geto appear out of nowhere, Ronawa was completely on guard.

At the first sign of trouble, she planned to use the same trick again and flee by killing "distance."

Suguru Geto was simply too dangerous to cursed spirits.

Suguru Geto also saw Ronawa's wariness.

He took the initiative to explain, "Don't misunderstand. I absolutely bear you no ill will."

"While it is true that my technique is Cursed Spirit Manipulation, I would never use it on you."

"You possess incomparable potential, while I have lofty ideals. I would never do something as foolish as killing the chicken for its eggs!"

"In fact, I came to seek your cooperation!"

Suguru Geto truly did not want to kill Ronawa.

Certainly, Ronawa's technique was already nearly unsolvable.

But it was not enough.

Her own strength was too low.

Even if he controlled Ronawa, could he defeat Satoru Gojo with her? Could he change this world with her?

Of course not.

And if he could not accomplish that, Suguru Geto had no reason to kill Ronawa.

On the contrary, he had come to help Ronawa grow stronger.

He had come to cooperate with Ronawa!

As a typical villain, Suguru Geto possessed every essential condition for becoming one.

For example, a tragic past.

He had personally witnessed the tragic deaths of his companions.

It was after that that he began to waver in his original beliefs.

Then there was his lofty ideal.

That was to create a world with neither humans nor cursed spirits.

The absence of cursed spirits was easy to understand, since his companions had died at the hands of cursed spirits.

But why could there be no humans either?

Because cursed spirits were born from humanity's fear and other negative emotions.

If humanity was wiped out, wouldn't that permanently prevent cursed spirits from ever appearing again?

Naturally, Suguru Geto's plan was regarded by everyone as the ravings of a madman.

It was likewise opposed by everyone.

For that reason, Suguru Geto had become what he was now: a traitor to sorcerers.

And once Ronawa understood Suguru Geto's plan, she could understand why he did not want to kill her now.

He wanted to use Ronawa's power to carry out his plan.

As a cursed spirit born from the concept of "death," Ronawa undoubtedly possessed the potential to kill all humanity.

But Ronawa needed to grow.

At her current stage, Ronawa absolutely could not accomplish such a thing.

For that reason, Suguru Geto would not only refrain from harming Ronawa, but would also find ways to help her grow stronger quickly.

As for "Cursed Spirit Manipulation," it could indeed control cursed spirits.

But once a cursed spirit was controlled, it would lose the ability to grow any further.

So Suguru Geto would not control Ronawa. Even if he intended to control her, it would not be now.

He would have to wait until later.

That was why, when Suguru Geto said that he would not harm Ronawa,

his tone was especially sincere.

Ronawa had almost believed him.

Well, she had truly been just a tiny bit away from believing him!

As she listened to Suguru Geto's nonsense, Ronawa considered how she could escape.

She would have to be out of her mind to listen to Suguru Geto and follow him.

Wouldn't that be like a sheep walking into a tiger's den?

Still, Ronawa did not stop talking.

Instead, she played along. "Is that so? Cooperation? Let's hear it."

"It's simple. I help you grow stronger, and you only need to do a few insignificant little things for me."

Ronawa nearly burst out laughing.

Insignificant little things?

More like asking her to go on a killing spree!

She would have to be insane to do that.

Still, she continued to stall for time. "Insignificant little things? Could you be more specific?"

Suguru Geto answered vaguely, "Don't worry. I merely want you to do what you are best at."

What was a Death Curse Spirit best at? The answer was obvious.

Ronawa then put on an excited expression.

"So you're planning to recruit me into professional gaming?"

"I knew it. With skills as good as mine, I should be making a name for myself on the professional circuit instead of staying cooped up here as a shut-in!"

"By the way, what's our team called? How much investment do we have? Who are the players?"

Suguru Geto's composed smile vanished.

It was replaced by a blank look.

What the hell was she talking about?

He was a Special Grade Sorcerer, a grand villain preparing to wipe out all humanity.

How could he possibly have the mood to invite her to play some damn professional game?
