“Don’t tell me you killed them all.”
Sakurai Hoshika looked at this “mountain of corpses and sea of blood,” and only felt that a string in her mind, already stretched taut, was about to snap.
Who knew how surprised she had been when she discovered last night that her skill had broken through, and now how collapsed she was.
Time went back to the previous night.
After the Hacker King found an address from Shark Hand’s phone, Fushiguro Toji stayed silent for a long time, then suddenly said, “I’m going out for a bit,” and carried the unconscious Shark Hand away like a corpse.
Not long after he left, the player lady received a string of dinging system notifications.
[Respected player, congratulations on obtaining a believer, [Fushiguro Toji]]
[Character [Fushiguro Toji] information has been updated]
[Name: Fushiguro Toji
New information:
Cursed energy: 0 (fixed)
Traits:
★★★★★[Heaven and Cursed Restriction]
(Description: Heaven and Cursed Restriction, trading zero cursed energy for an over-spec physical body. Its existence transcends the causality of the jujutsu world…
Effects: Physique 25, cursed energy 0, ignores jujutsu barriers, physical skill proficiency, agility, and strength attribute growth up, bound title [One Who Transcends Causality], hidden character attention up)
Evaluation: A fully tamed hunting dog no longer needs cash power to restrain it, and will even make money for its owner. Friendly reminder: if it is abandoned by its owner, something very terrible will happen… You do not want to try that, do you? The system faithfully advises you: do not do this.]
[[1]The effect of [One Who Transcends Causality] has been triggered.
Congratulations, your trait [Faith of the Fool·B] has broken through and grown.
… Detected faction [Shinsekai Gokuraku Church]…
Beep, trait [Faith of the Fool·B] has broken through and mutated into [Cult Leader of the Fool·A], trait information has been updated, please check the skill interface]
[[2]Trait ★★★★★ [Cult Leader of the Fool·A]
([Growable/Mutatable]
Description: “This is eternal bliss.”
Effects:
1. When someone believes in you, your skills and attribute values will be enhanced. The more people believe, and the more devout their belief, the greater the boost.
2. You can give orders to intermediate and advanced believers, and the success rate of the orders depends on the loyalty of their faith.
3. You can plant [Believer Seeds] in defeated enemies. Those who are planted with the seed will grow into [Captives of the Fool]. You can give them orders, and the success rate depends on your [Charm] and the other party’s [Sanity]. When your [Charm] is higher than the other party’s [Sanity], the success rate of the order is 100%. After an order is successfully carried out, [Captives of the Fool] have a chance of falling into [Chaos], [Fear], or [Enchantment].
Be careful, overly intense faith may perhaps turn into excessive love and longing.
When faith shatters, the betrayed believers will raise knives against you.)]
[Character [Fushiguro Toji] dispatch function unlocked (exclusive function of trait [Cult Leader of the Fool·A])
You may give dispatch orders to intermediate and advanced believers. Dispatchable matters depend on character skills and loyalty.
Current dispatchable matters for advanced believer [Fushiguro Toji]: assassination, poisoning, threats, intimidation, burying bodies
… Detected player historical behavior, added extra dispatch orders (Sakurai family exclusive): outings, playing, cooking, bedtime stories]
… This is seriously not okay.
There were too many things to complain about, and for a moment she didn’t know where to start.
Setting aside for now her own trait, [Cult Leader of the Fool], which after breaking through and mutating was full of cult potential and was basically DIO reborn… shouldn’t Fushiguro Toji reflect on himself properly? Look at that dispatch function full of pork-chop-rice vibes! Before being bought by the cult leader, what kind of life had you been living?! Besides being a human driver, what use does the cult leader need you for!
And why is the evaluation a hunting dog? Even the system doesn’t treat you like a person anymore!! Is this what happens when you don’t do human things and don’t speak human language?? And don’t call the 5-year-old Sakurai Hoshika-sama your owner, she’s calling the police, you scum!!
Before Sakurai Hoshika’s chaotic brain could carefully think it through, the system prompt sounded again like it had gone crazy.
[Your believer [Fushiguro Toji] defeated Guard A]
[Your believer [Fushiguro Toji] defeated Guard B]
…
[Your believer [Fushiguro Toji] defeated Jujutsu Sorcerer A]
[Your believer [Fushiguro Toji] defeated ■■’s subordinate]
?
?!!
Fushiguro Toji! What the hell are you doing——!!
With a dying patient’s sudden sit-up, when the divine child-sama took a flight and hurriedly chased down the location of believer Fushiguro Toji, what came into view was the crime scene where the perpetrator was wiping his knife on the “corpse.”
Breath, in, abruptly, stop!
She had ridden in a car for several hours, and the system prompts saying Fushiguro Toji had “defeated” enemies hadn’t stopped coming at all, so how did this monster of a Fushiguro Toji charge over here in half an hour!
Wouldn’t this heaven-shaking case get her sentenced to life?!
On this side, the divine child-sama was clutching her chest and taking deep breaths, afraid she would fail to get a breath in and confess on the spot. The culprit, however, shrugged, looking like he had long since known she would kick up a fuss, and laughed in a cheeky, shameless way.
“None of them are dead. I left them all for you.”
“Don’t say that like you’re proud of yourself! Do you want me to praise you or something? Is chopping people until they’re half paralyzed something a law-abiding good citizen should be doing?!” Sakurai Hoshika exploded, but her hand to call the police and cut ties with her own family, at least, still stopped.
Since they weren’t dead, then they could still be salvaged!
The divine child pinched the space under her nose, barely recovering from her suffocation state, and the gaze she cast on the fallen “corpses” on the ground gradually sharpened.
Sorry, my enemies. Sakurai Hoshika-sama is doing this all to save the family!
[You have planted a [Believer Seed] in Guard A, obtained [Captive of the Fool]]
[You have planted a [Believer Seed] in Jujutsu Sorcerer B, obtained [Captive of the Fool]]
…
[You have planted a [Believer Seed] in ■■’s subordinate… Detected ■■’s mark… beep… mark has been overwritten. Obtained [Captive of the Fool]]
After planting dozens of believer seeds in one breath, the divine child-sama took a breath and only felt as if she had lost some important thing… However, right now, the player looked at the ■■ in the system prompt and fell into silence.
… This ■■ must be the mastermind behind the scenes, right? Was there any need to censor it this heavily!
And the ■■’s mark actually seems to conflict a little with the believer seed… are you also DIO, savior of villains?
The player, who had lost her conscience, stared at ■■’s subordinate, narrowing her eyes dangerously.
“Toji, wake this guy up.”
…
“I-I really don’t know… Master, please, I really…”
The bruised and swollen ■■’s subordinate woke up, but he himself still couldn’t say who ■■ actually was.
The terrified man, nearly scared out of his wits, spoke incoherently about everything he knew: “That lord, no, that guy… I don’t know the real name, I don’t know the real gender… but as soon as you see them, you know from the bottom of your heart that it’s that person…”
“An eye that has always hidden in the shadows… his eyeliner and forces are spread throughout the jujutsu world, and the three great families also all have his insiders… I don’t know how exactly he does it, but one can only obey and cannot escape his gaze…”
“The Star Religious Group was secretly controlled by that guy! This time, the action against you, against you… was also just a casual order from above. Your specialness hasn’t been reported back yet, really! It absolutely, absolutely won’t expose your existence…!”
“Mm… so in the end, there still wasn’t much useful information,” Sakurai Hoshika said while sitting on the only futon that hadn’t gotten blood on it, not paying any attention to the captive who kept begging and crying. Her fingers resting on her knee tapped lightly as she thought.
Fushiguro Toji sat nearby with a knife in hand, the cold gaze in his eyes always tracking everything around them, like a hunting dog lying in wait, quietly curled up by the owner’s feet.
After a while, the divine child finally lowered her gaze and looked at the fool captive whose face was covered in dried blood.
“There’s one thing I still need you to do.”
The divine child’s voice was very gentle, a crisp child’s voice, yet carrying saintlike compassion. The instant he heard that voice, endless fear and attachment surged up in his heart, wanting to give everything for her pity, her gaze, her voice.
“Tell the person who gave you the order… that the divine child of the Shinsekai Gokuraku Church has been cursed and will fall into a long sleep. The Shinsekai Gokuraku Church has already paid the price, there’s no need to keep paying attention to a group of ‘ordinary people’… Can you do that?”
The Captive of the Fool raised his head, stupidly gazing at his cult leader. In the divine child’s gentle smile full of divinity, his whole body trembled uncontrollably. He lowered his head in fanaticism, happiness, and fear, like a lamb with its neck bared for slaughter, offering up limitless loyalty and faith.
“I will fulfill your wish… my lord.”
When [Sanity] was lower than the player’s [Charm], her order succeeded, and the Captive of the Fool also fell into [Fear] and [Enchantment] states.
Sakurai Hoshika looked at the believer on the ground who had a split head, was trembling all over, and still looked insanely high, and the weirdness of that state made her scalp a little numb, so she hurriedly had someone handle the wounds of the “corpses” on the ground.
In a place no one could see, she opened the system prompts again.
In the achievements column, besides the original [Found It], there was now another line of text that also gave off a dark and ominous aura, [There’s a Ghost Here].
[Achievement: There’s a Ghost Here
Discovered part of the truth behind the Star Plasma Vessel incident.
Reward: Intelligence attribute point x1, [Yoshiyoshikai Companion Body] x1]
[Item [Yoshiyoshikai Companion Body]:
Description: Can one person have different bodies? With different bodies but the same consciousness, is that still the same person? Is this person human, or a ghost?
Effects:
1. You can transfer your consciousness into the Yoshiyoshikai companion body. The companion body’s attribute values synchronize with the player body.
2. Experience gained by the Yoshiyoshikai companion body will be shared with the player body.
3. During the use of the companion body, the player body falls asleep.
4. If the player body dies, the Yoshiyoshikai companion body is damaged; if the companion body is destroyed, the player body is unaffected.
5. The Yoshiyoshikai companion body is essentially a jelly-like gel substance and will return to its original form after being destroyed.
Warning! Two of you cannot appear at the same time. This companion body can only be used on timelines where the player consciousness has not awakened, that is: use the companion body to travel to the timeline before the game starts, and the time ratio of the crossing changes depending on the era, maximum 20:1]
Yoshiyoshikai companion body… probably means using a clone to open a new map…
Looking at the experience-sharing effect and the description of [maximum time ratio 20:1], the player’s soul as a grindset king only felt like it was shouting.
In order to get stronger, transform into the jelly Yoshiyoshikai right away. I’m not going to be human anymore, JOJO!
Author’s note:
Right now, Sakurai Hoshika’s impressions of others:
Six Eyes: a dragon-overlord protagonist, an ugly freak with six eyes, charm value definitely negative
Cursed spirit manipulator: a weird guy who plays with ant-sized little monsters, a diamond-king muscular man with bigger boobs than Toji
Kenjaku: you know who + DIO reborn.
Didn’t see that coming, huh, it’s me, Hoshika Brandō!
A new map will open within one to two chapters. I’m so vulgar, I only know how to do time travel, sorry, please don’t dislike me qaq
ps: As readers pointed out, Gojo Satoru being a divine child is a relatively popular fanon setting, not an original canon setting. I accidentally remembered it wrong… In any case, this story also sets Gojo Satoru as a divine child, so please just remember this is an original author setting
