"What, you don't believe me? Well, that's right, it's normal not to believe me."

Sukuna's distrustful expression was so obvious that it was as if the words "I don't believe you" were written all over his face.

"Hmph... Do you really think there's even a shred of credibility in such a flimsy lie as yours?"

Summoning and complaining, Su Nuo was struggling to withstand the weight of three cars while being dragged down by Fu Hei's numbers.

Ever since he met Xia Jie, he felt his urge to complain was constantly rising.

"Really? Yes, that's possible!"

"Then I'll prove it."

Xia Jie raised her index finger, her smile unrestrained.

"This body is made of infinite houses, its heart is like steel bars, its blood like cement, and it can traverse countless construction sites without being defeated..."

No, what is this person saying?

Su Nuo's thoughts became increasingly confused as he listened. What kind of ultimate move required such a long incantation?

No, rather, can such outrageous words really be considered a curse?

But before Su Nuo could sort out his thoughts, Xia Jie had already finished chanting.

"Domain Expansion - Unlimited Creation!"

With the dark style of the Embroidered Shadow Court as its theme, an extremely powerful realm, so powerful that it is like a world unto itself, unfolds.

On the flat and boundless construction site, countless buildings of all kinds were erected from the foundation, as if the creation of paradise had begun, and were built at a speed thousands of times faster.

One after another, buildings of different shapes, but all conceptually houses, unfolded around Xia Jie, Su Nuo, and Mo Xu Luo, stretching all the way to the horizon.

From the central cave cross-section to the nearby cave dwellings, and then to the ancient wooden buildings further away.

Then there are the twin towers further away and the towering nest city even further away.

And then there are those futuristic space structures at the edge of the horizon…

If you look up, you can see a mechanical planet resembling the "Death Star" appearing and disappearing in the sky.

An endless fleet of mechanical ships, like swarms of ants, lingered above the heavy clouds.

"How about this world that makes up all the houses?"

"In my view, they are all symbols of human civilization."

What the hell is all this?

Su Nuo looked at the ubiquitous houses, then at the Demon Lord beside her whose wheels had stopped turning, and smiled with relief.

This is the worst-case scenario; there's definitely some truth to the lies told by this mysterious powerhouse named Xia Jie.

At the very least, his techniques are truly versatile, and his magical power far surpasses that of his own.

He's just not quite right in the head. He could have killed him instantly, but he had to resort to some fancy tricks.

However, few powerful sorcerers are completely sane; in that sense, being abnormal becomes a kind of normalcy.

all in all.

He, Su Nuo, is completely finished.

"You're just using me for amusement?"

With the Dark Shadow Courtyard covered, Su Nuo, relieved of her burden, was finally able to lift her head and look directly into Xia Jie's eyes.

"When you treat ordinary people's lives as a pastime, you should be aware of the possibility that you yourself may also become a pastime."

"Yeah?"

Su Nuo wasn't annoyed by this.

"Even if I treat people kindly throughout my life and become a morally upright gentleman, these good deeds will not become a force that protects me."

"If I encounter malice directed at me, I will still fight with my own strength. Even if someone comes to my aid because of my kindness, we are ultimately using our own strength to fight against the strength of others, rather than naively using good to fight evil."

"If I lose, no matter how much good or evil I have done in the past, how the one who defeats me will decide how to torment me."

"If that's the case, why not just be yourself from the start?"

"And you, Xia Jie, just drown in this cruel world devoid of good and evil, clinging to the illusion that good deeds will be rewarded!"

As Su Nuo spoke, she activated the reversal technique to restore her physical condition.

He has not completely given up on reclaiming the power belonging to "Ryomen Sukuna".

To be honest, when Reggie said to the Fushiguro Megumi inside him, "How long are you going to be manipulated by Sukuna?", he was genuinely worried that Fushiguro's words would reignite her will to resist.

Fortunately, Fushiguro Megumi has always been quite capable in areas where she might not be.

"Is this your philosophy? I'm truly disappointed, Sukuna."

"In the end, you are nothing more than an empty shell, devoid of inner strength."

Xia Jie shook her head, a clear look of disappointment appearing in her eyes as she met Su Nuo's gaze.

"How much of your life have you lived? You've eaten less sushi than I've eaten people. Don't act like you know everything!"

Su Nuo frowned. He didn't understand why he felt so irritated by Xia Jie's few words.

And they can't even beat them.

Now he can neither argue with Xia Jie nor beat her in a fight, which is both incredibly frustrating and infuriating.

"Then tell me your brilliant insights?"

Grandpa Su Nuo, after all, was an old man who had been in a daze for over a thousand years without going crazy. He quickly suppressed his anger and continued his tactic of talking to stall for time.

"Think about it, Sukuna, think about it more. Just because it's always been this way, does that mean it's right? Just because the world is this way, do you accept it?"

"What do you mean?" Su Nuo frowned.

"The strong should not compromise with the shape of the world, but should determine the structure of the world."

Since the world is cold, indifferent, and devoid of good or evil, why not change it?

"Ha, do you think you can make the eternally unchanging world conform to your wishes all by yourself?"

"Look, you've once again admitted that you're inferior to the world, which is why I said you're just an empty shell with strength but no heart."

For true strong individuals, there is no reason why one person alone is necessarily inferior to the world, nor is there any reason to back down in the face of difficulty.

Because, the strong prevail.

What a domineering ambition!

Su Nuo felt as if Xia Jie's words had cleared away the clouds and brought the sun to shine, as if he had been enlightened. He felt like he was starting to get a brain.

At this moment, Xia Jie was bathed in the heavy sunlight falling from the clouds, her face appearing and disappearing in the shadows, and the beams of light that took shape under the Tyndall effect seemed to form Xia Jie's wings.

Su Nuo's heart skipped a beat. At that moment, he felt as if he were seeing himself reflected in Rimei's eyes.

"True strength is not just about physical power; it also includes the heart."

Xia Jie's voice pulled Su Nuo back from her brief daze.

He saw Xia Jie place her right hand on her chest, her figure becoming increasingly sacred and imposing.

"Even among the weak you look down on, there are many who have surpassed you on a spiritual level."

Like Urokodori, like Toudou, like Kugizaki, like Nanami…

Xia Jie skipped over Fu Hei's name and continued.

"We humans have never been creatures that give up easily."

If you don't have fur, then wear fur.

If you have no claws, then forge spears.

If there is no food, then domesticate the five grains.

If you don't have wings, then build an airplane.

Modern humans, though wingless, fly higher than eagles, gillless, swim deeper than fish, and hoofless, run faster than horses.

We are born naked, we are well-fed and clothed. We are loyal to our desires, we are noble and pure. We are base and cunning, we are full of courage. We are scattered, yet united as one.

This is humanity: as lowly as dust and grass, as noble as the stars in the sky.

We are already the strongest, and we will become even stronger. We humans are the strongest and supreme beasts, dominating the heavens and the earth.

When man and beast unite, who can compare to the beast, and who can fight against it?

So Su Nuo, now I'm asking you a question, and you should also ask yourself one.

Xia Jie asked her final question.

"Do you want to be human, or do you want to be the curse?"
