"(M/N), are you still tired?" Itadori asked worriedly.

"Yeah...I just need to sleep. Hontoni nemui."

"So desuka? Then sleep a little longer."

[L/N][M/N]

"I will personally fuck shit up if any of you get hurt too bad."

"Aw (M/N), I knew you loved me." Kugisaki threw her arms around me.

The cursed spirit is within its barrier so the procedure is important. Go at night from underneath and one more thing, at the bottom of the canyon, there might be a river. Crossing a river or other border was acts that symbolised crossing to the afterlife. It carries important meaning in sorcery. The domain instantly activated as it did last night when I went with Neko. Suddenly a green and red blob curse came darting over us before they realised we beat them here. They definitely weren't here last time. Itadori noticed that they were separate from this domain too and said that we would deal with it.

Immediately, I chased after the red one as it spat at me, forcing me to dodge but I smacked it in the face into the barrier, making it rebound. Fushiguro yelled at me not to use Domain Expansion since I might shatter the barrier. I was completely self-absorbed in my actions of beating the curse up but I made sure to play whack a mole with the curses. I had to conserve my energy after last night. The two first grade curses I dealt with at that time were weak but they drained my cursed energy. With my tired condition and forgetting the need to eat, it was only a matter of time till I ran out.

"Naze? The weak fall fast." The curse jeered.

Jeered at by the curse, I swung my shovel at it, tearing off a limb before spinning to swing again angrily, tearing off another. Still jeered at despite ripping of two of its limbs, it made fun of me and I was just too tired to argue back. If only I didn't take so long to recover because half my cursed energy was going to wildlife so I had a stronger technique right now. Pulling out some rose seeds, I threw at the creature and grew it to capture it. It started yelling at a high pitched tone, saying they didn't want to deal with me anymore.

Sighing, I raised my shovel and with one clean swipe, killed it, the blood splattering onto my shirt. Looking at myself, I noticed small little cuts on my arms which reminded me of when I was a lot younger and didn't know how to deal with thorny plants so my mother had to teach me. Using the Reverse Cursed technique, I healed some of my wounds before noticing how shaky my hands were, that was odd. I did also noticed that some of the venom it spat at me that hit me burned some of my shirt and my body but those wounds were decently healed.

I didn't realise until it was too late that Kugisaki got taken with Itadori following after her. Luckily, Itadori signalled to me to leave if things got bad. Unluckily, it seems he managed to jinx me since I was caught up enough for a mole to hit my back. Turning around, I dealt with the remaining moles quickly with Fushiguro slicing his moles in half. I noticed my movements getting sloppy almost weak. Yabai. Huffing, I saw Fushiguro take out the last one with his technique, the large black dog breaking the curse. He seemed worried and exhausted too from being at his wits end.

"Fushiguro, you alright?"

"Yeah... just stressed. Wait why hasn't the barrier come down?! (M/N), behind you!"

Turning around, I raised my shovel to block the hit of the curse that came from the ceiling onto the ground. I didn't imbue my shovel with enough cursed energy at the wooden area so it broke and the blade went flying into the ground. Even Fushiguro's sword shattered as he got sent slightly back. It finally started acting up after all this time because Sukuna's power was being released. It looked the same as the one in the Juvenile Detention Centre and the two when I went to that hospital. It made a weird orange ball that it used as a slingshot to fire at Fushiguro before noticing another one of the same came right at me. Why the hell was there two?!
