Blood-stained (Yuuji & Sukuna x Reader)

Mind Eater ~ Ch43

¤ 3rd Point Of View ¤

"Dad!" (Y/n) screamed, watching as he siezed with pure agonising pain. Mahito's hand sat comfortably at the middle of his chest, attempting to transfigure Nanami's soul. (Y/n) panicked in that moment, not wanting Kento to become another of Mahito's puppets- there was no way back from that.

So, the girl outstretched her arm and activated her curse within Mahito. She used his blood against him, pulling him back with immense force until he was sent flying back. The curse stabilised himself by altering the shape of his soul, giving himself hooves to balance with so that he did not go flying back into the wall behind him. (Y/n) didn't care that Mahito had successfully regained his balance, more focused on the fact that Nanami was still himself.

Kento was still in pain after Mahito's attempt, the clutch of his hand over his chest only proving it. The man leaned over slightly as he caught his breath, never having experienced such a painful feeling in his life. Was that always what the souls experienced before Mahito killed them? Nanami thought that that was a horrible way to die.

"I almost forgot about you." Mahito sighed, looking back to (Y/n). She hadn't done too much damage during this fight. It was a disappointment, really. He expected more from a (L/n) that was protected by the infamous Sukuna. Mahito averted his gaze back to Kento, finding it amusing the way he heaved for air, staring at the curse with resentment.
"Are you suprised my speed's suddenly increased?" Mahito asked cheekily, showing off his hooves with pride.

"The fact is, I can alter the same of my own soul too." Mahito grinned widely.
"Jujutsu sorcerers can protect their bodies with cursed energy. But they aren't protecting their souls." Mahito began to explain, his finger in the air as he continued talking on.
"For starters, you have to be aware of your own soul. It's not possible to protect it if you're not." The curse continued.

"But it looks to me that you covered your soul subconsciously somewhat with cursed energy. If you hadn't done that then you'd already be under my control, even with the (L/n) saving you." Mahito told them pointedly. (Y/n) became suprised that her father could protect his soul with his cursed energy on a mere whim, while she relied on Sukuna.
"But once I touch you a few more times, you'll cease to be human anymore!" Mahito yelled excitedly.

As he spoke, (Y/n) formed a long katana with her blood. It wasn't even crystalised and yet it was as sharp as any other weapon- if not, then much sharper. At Mahito's words, Nanami charged forward with his own sword with (Y/n) charging in right behind him. Mahito covered his fists with cursed energy, blocking and dodging every attack. The fact that Mahito was so good at avoiding attacks only fueled (Y/n)'s anger even more.

Eventually, Nanami realised that they all needed more space to fight and that this narrow tunnel was constricting their techniques. So Nanami tunned tail and ran down the tunnel. According to his memory of the map of the sewers, there should be a large controls room at the end of the tunnel where they could have much more space to fight.
"I'm not letting you go!" Mahito yelled with a manical laugh, leaving (Y/n) behind as his main focus became Nanami.

Mahito darted down the tunnel, right behind Kento. He swung his fist as Kento back as he ran, only for Kento to block it with his weapon and flip over the railing. The man landed at the bottom floor, the control room. Mahito sighed as he walked closer to the raining, laughing bitterly as he glanced down at his enemy who was panting profusely.

"Was that it, Grade 1 sorcerer? You do well running around but you're at your limit now, aren't you? I'd have more fun provoking the (L/n)'s knight in shining armour." Mahito grinned, looking back down the dark tunnel where he had just come from to see (Y/n) trying to slowly catch up. She glared at Mahito for his comment, walking closer to him while biting the inside of her lip. If he continued then she'd have to...
