Satoru Gojo truly hadn't expected Sherlock to open a domain outright after being driven mad with anger. For a moment, the expression on his face was exceedingly strange.
Reality had repeatedly verified that damned "Sherlock instruction manual," but for some inexplicable reason, Satoru Gojo found that fact utterly distasteful, to the point that he almost felt like he was having a heart attack.
But reality wouldn't stop just because Satoru Gojo felt like he was having a heart attack. As Sherlock shouted his domain's name, a surge of sky-blue liquid, the same color as the Six Eyes, welled up beneath his feet and rapidly began to expand.
In less than a single breath, it enveloped both Satoru Gojo and Sherlock within the domain.
Sherlock's domain was quite beautiful. Beneath their feet lay a tranquil expanse like the surface of water, where every movement of their feet sent out little ripples. Above them stretched a beautiful blue sky with white clouds, joining the water beneath their feet as though sea and sky were one.
Of course, that wasn't the most important part. What mattered most was the thing that appeared behind Sherlock after he expanded his domain: a humanoid object hanging upside down in midair, with a noose around its neck.
The reason for calling it a humanoid object was simple: its bodily proportions were nothing a human should have!
Its limbs and torso were all exceptionally elongated, like Slender Man from those horror stories.
More importantly, the thing didn't look corporeal at all. Its entire silhouette was pieced together from fractured, distorted fragments of space, like shards of broken glass.
Judging by the scenery within the domain, Satoru Gojo couldn't begin to guess what effect Sherlock's domain had. Still, he was intensely curious and quietly waited for Sherlock to act.
