Chapter 46 Extra 002: When Sugawara Megumi travels back to the original story
Megumi Fushiguro, who rushed over, was stunned when she saw a boy who looked exactly like herself. Gojo Satoru, who brought his disciples to find the curse master who harmed Tsumeki, was also stunned. Geto Suguru, who did not expect to be exposed in front of Gojo Satoru like this, was also stunned.
The four of them looked at each other, and for a few seconds there was deathly silence in the room.
The one who broke the silence was Sugawara Megumi. He stared at Geto Suguru, who had sutures on his forehead, with an unpleasant expression: "Who are you and why—"
Having inherited his mother's talent, Sugawara Megumi has been able to see a richer world than others since he was a child. For example, he can see monsters and he can see people's soul flames as long as he concentrates.
A person has only one soul flame, but the guy with sutures on his forehead has two. The dark flame has an ominous color, and the light flame that has been usurped has been wiped out and looks weak.
This is parasitism. Sugawara Kei heard from her mother that some bad people would use incredible methods to parasitize their souls in other people's bodies in order to survive.
Sugawara Megumi felt as if there was a stone stuck in her stomach. After her parents disappeared, her brother Gouyu next door who loved to eat garbage-flavored cursed spirits also got into trouble. Sugawara Megumi felt that he no longer liked this world.
Time seems to flow slowly, but it is only a fleeting moment.
Geto Suguru, who had stitches on his forehead, waved his hand, and a scary-looking cursed spirit rushed in front of Sugawara Megumi, blocking his way forward. At the same time, a cursed tool with eyes that looked like a Rubik's Cube was thrown on the ground and automatically extended and entangled Gojo Satoru.
Although the strongest sorcerer grew up in the world of sorcery, he was not prepared for the extremely shady operation of sutures on the forehead. He was still immersed in the shock of how his best friend, whom he had killed with his own hands, could come back to life. The past events came to his mind vividly. When Megumi Fushiguro released the jade dog, Gojo Satoru had already been sealed in the cursed tool.
Fushiguro Megumi's expression changed as he looked at the cursed tools smashed on the ground and Gojo Satoru who disappeared and never reappeared. That man was always the strongest. Could it be that he was really sealed?
As Fushiguro Megumi thought this, he put his hands into the shape of an animal and summoned a Shikigami to snatch the box that sealed Gojo Satoru. His movements were fast, but Geto Suguru's were even faster.
The fake Geto Suguru had a twisted smile on his face. He didn't expect such an unexpected surprise. He had planned it for so long, but Gojo Satoru was sealed by him before he even had the chance to implement it.
The twisted smile on his face didn't last long, because a black shadow flashed by and the cursed tool in the fake Geto Suguru's hand disappeared.
From the ruins destroyed by the cursed spirits, rubble fell in all directions, and two Shikigami jade dogs, almost as tall as humans, appeared in the house.
The young man, who was guarded by the shikigami, frowned and brushed off the dust on his body. The black dragon circled loyally beside him, with the thing that sealed Gojo Satoru carved in its claws.
Megumi Fushiguro breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn't know the position of the guy who looked like him, he was lucky that he was not in cahoots with Geto Suguru.
Megumi Fushiguro fell into thought, wondering how he could get the box and release Gojo Satoru in this situation.
It was Sugawara Megumi who broke the standoff again. During the standoff between the two, Sugawara Megumi weighed the cursed tool and felt the subtle touch that gave her goosebumps.
Under the gaze of the two, Sugawara Megumi threw the strange cursed tool directly into the shadow. She seemed to be able to feel herself being shaken, and before falling into the shadow, the cursed tool seemed to be stretched open by someone but failed.
Sugawara Megumi's behavior changed the expressions of the fake Geto Suguru and Fushiguro Megumi.
"I have something I want to discuss with this gentleman, so please wait for a moment, Fushiguro Megumi." Sugawara Megumi said, looking at the boy who looked exactly like her.
In many film and television works and folk tales, meeting another self represents death. Sugawara Megumi does not believe this, but still feels very surprised and interesting when she sees another self.
No one can step into two rivers at the same time and choose two futures, but Sugawara Megumi feels complicated when she looks at herself living in the other future.
The guy frowned, and he must be very frustrated with the current situation.
Geto Suguru is a top-grade sorcerer with powerful spells. Sugawara Megumi feels that even if she were in this world, she probably wouldn't have the ability to defeat Geto Suguru and escape unscathed.
Fortunately, this guy is not him. The one in front of him is just a monster that is parasitic in Geto Suguru's body.
Sugawara Megumi learned how to send this kind of monster to hell.
The ancient-looking Nichirin Sword emerged from the shadow and was held by the young man. As the blade was unsheathed, Mo Long, sensing the fighting spirit, also launched an attack on Geto Suguru in front of him.
Fushiguro Megumi, who wanted to help, was pulled by his clothes. He heard Tsumiki's voice coming from the position next to him: "Megumi, why are you ignoring me?"
Geto Suguru was very interested in Mo Long. You know, his spells were very effective when manipulating higher-level cursed spirits. He could see that the Mo Long in front of him was definitely at the level of a special-grade cursed spirit.
However, Geto Suguru had never imagined that there was a Nichirin Sword in this world that was not designed to harm the flesh.
As he fell straight to the ground, there was still a puzzled expression on Geto Suguru's face, but the expression was frozen forever.
Sugawara Megumi calmly picked up the knife and decided to send two boxes of ice-cold drinks to her graduate student, Geto, after returning home.
Megumi Fushiguro subconsciously stood in front of the invisible Tsumeki, and looked warily at the young man who was walking towards him with a knife drawn.
Megumi Fushiguro's fingertips moved slightly, ready to summon the rabbit at any time.
Sugawara Megumi sighed as she looked at the destroyed wall: "Oh no, I forgot to ask that guy for the renovation fee first."
Sugawara Megumi extended her hand towards the boy, whose expression was serious and his body was tense, as if he was considering whether he was a friend or foe. He could see himself reflected in the boy's pupils. "Let me introduce myself. I am Sugawara Megumi from another world."
…
Sugawara Megumi and Fushiguro Megumi exchanged information with each other, introducing everything from school life to what happened after Tsumiki was cursed: "So, Tsumiki's soul is temporarily separated from her body and needs to return as soon as possible."
Upon learning that her parents were undercover police officers who had sacrificed their lives, Megumi Fushiguro sniffed. She didn't expect the truth from many years ago to be so sad. Tsu Miki even sobbed sadly.
Sugawara Megumi considerately changed the subject immediately: "Your school actually has pandas? I'm so envious. I've applied for the panda breeding experience class at the Beihua Zoo many times but was rejected."
Fushiguro Megumi realized that his other self had misunderstood something: "The panda is a cursed corpse, not a real panda. He is a senior who is one year higher than me and he is very interesting."
"Your campus life sounds very interesting." Sugawara Megumi sighed. It was a completely different life and sounded very exciting.
When Sugawara Megumi was a child, he thought about how his parents trained him in taijutsu, fighting, and swordsmanship. Was it because they hoped that he would inherit their legacy one day and enter the police academy or prepare to save the world?
But no, as spring and autumn passed and winter and summer came and went, Sugawara Megumi, who never stopped training, became an ordinary male high school student with a rich extracurricular life. Of course, this ordinary is compared with his childhood friend Yuji Itadori, who was often thrown into the national team.
"Your campus life is also great." Megumi Fushiguro said. She would worry about her quiz results, be a popular member in the sports club, and sign up for a breeding experience class at the zoo in her spare time. Just thinking about this kind of life is wonderful.
Megumi Fushiguro had those experiences before, but they disappeared after Tsumiki was cursed. After her sister woke up, the heavy burden on her heart disappeared, and Megumi Fushiguro felt much more relaxed.
Fushiguro Megumi squatted aside and handed over the bricks. She looked at her other-worldly self wearing gloves and building the wall with neat movements. She was a little puzzled: "Why are you so skilled?"
"This is a very practical skill I learned when I was in junior high school. I can also pour cement. After mastering this skill, it will be easy for me to find a part-time job with a good salary." Sugawara Megumi said with a bright smile.
Megumi Fushiguro felt something was wrong, but when he saw the other person's muscle lines were clearer and stronger than his own, he felt it made sense.
After painting the wall, Megumi Fushiguro found some white wallpaper and stuck it on to pretend that nothing had happened.
The two young men looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. Sugawara Megumi looked at Fushiguro Megumi who was smiling faintly and felt that his life must have been very difficult.
Sugawara Megumi thought for a moment, took out a black box from the shadows, and solemnly handed it to herself in another world.
"What is this?" Megumi Fushiguro looked at the fist-sized ball in the box and thought it looked very similar to the Pokémon ball that appeared in the cartoons.
"It's Dr. Agasa's invention." Sugawara Megumi unscrewed the ball and threw it into Fushiguro Megumi's shadow, and a surprised expression appeared on her face, which was very similar to her own.
"Summoning shikigami to battle consumes a lot of mana, so my family made a mana storage device that can be used repeatedly in emergencies, which has unexpected effects. I don't usually use it, and you seem to need it more than I do."
This was a very precious gift. Before Fushiguro Megumi could open her mouth, she was warmly hugged by the shoulders: "In return, can we take a few photos together?"
"I tried injecting cursed energy, but it didn't work. It seems this thing can only be opened in other ways." After being satisfied with the photo, Sugawara Megumi took out the prison gate and said.
"Let's go to the hospital first. Miss Tsumiki's soul has been away from her body for too long." Sugawara Megumi said.
Sugawara Megumi felt that this was the most important thing at the moment for this pair of siblings who depended on each other.
After arriving at the hospital, Fushiguro Megumi noticed that the mark of the curse on Tsumeki's forehead had completely disappeared and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. This meant that the fake Geto Suguru was the guy who had committed multiple curses, and the caster's death curse was therefore lifted.
Sugawara Megumi closed the sliding door, leaving the space for the brother and sister.
Megumi Sugawara, who was sitting in the park, saw the pink-haired boy supporting the old man, and she smiled.
The phone in her pocket rang. Sugawara Megumi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the familiar number: "Mom, I feel like I accidentally walked into another world."
Mother is always reliable, and Sugawara Megumi, who firmly believes this, felt relieved after hearing the comfort over the phone.
"How's the other world? It's pretty good. We just took photos together and built a wall together." Sugawara Megumi said: "The people here are very welcoming. I'm thinking about what souvenirs to bring back."
"By the way, Mom, do you know about a cursed tool with eyes that can seal people? What are its characteristics? This thing is square and has many eyes. It looks like it can only seal one person at a time. It feels very subtle, like human skin." Sugawara Megumi said.
Sugawara Yoshiyo, who was on the other end of the line wondering how to get her son back, immediately reacted, "It's the Prison Gate, a cursed tool that can seal everything. Because it's made of the sorcerer's flesh, the inner realm can't use cursed energy."
This sounds a bit tricky, Sugawara Megumi thought.
"But it doesn't matter. Aren't you carrying Jin'er's Tenshoko with you?" Sugawara Yoshiyo reminded with a smile.
Sugawara Megumi's eyes lit up.
Sugawara Yoshiyo couldn't help laughing when he heard his son say that he sent the parasitic monster with forehead sutures back to the other world. The happy smile that reached his ears made Sugawara Keiya feel warm in his heart. He knew that his mother would be proud of him.
Sugawara Megumi doesn't know much about the world of sorcery because of Sugawara Yoshiyo's prohibition: the high death rate of sorcerers in the world of sorcery has not changed for thousands of years.
Yoshiyo Sugawara didn't want to send her son's soul to the afterlife with her own hands for another eighty or ninety years. The thought of that scene made her breathless.
The career option of a sorcerer has long been out of Sugawara Megumi's life options.
Yoshiyo Sugawara slowly educated his son about the gaps in his knowledge about sorcerers, helping him analyze the current situation he was facing and how things might develop next.
Sugawara Megumi had a rough idea in his mind. He didn't expect that his father's relative was actually a big shot in the world of curses: "Mom, do you want any souvenirs?"
Sugawara Yoshiyo laughed, "I have received the best gift, my Megumi."
Sugawara Megumi turned around to look at the two people talking in the ward, and whispered with a swell of heart, "Mom, the Megumi in this world has a sister."
"Then when Xiaohui comes back, Mom will give you a younger sister, okay?" Sugawara Yoshiyo asked with a smile.
Sugawara Megumi:!
Megumi Fushiguro came out and wanted to talk to herself in another world about how to release Gojo Satoru, but she found that Sugawara Megumi, who was originally very relaxed, had fallen into a state of excitement.
"Mei-kun, I'm going to be a big brother." Sugawara Megumi said happily.
"Congratulations." Fushiguro Megumi said after a moment's pause, a worried look on his face: "Tsumiki, something has changed."
Sugawara Megumi tilted her head in confusion, and after entering the ward, she realized what changes Fushiguro Megumi was talking about.
Although Sugawara Megumi had not come into contact with many sorcerers, he still felt that the cursed energy in Tsumeki's body was operating in an unskilled manner and did not want to leak out like ordinary people.
After the curse disappeared, Miki Fushiguro turned from an ordinary person into a sorcerer.
"You don't seem very surprised." said Megumi Fushiguro.
"I have a neighbor brother who also has this talent, but he didn't become a sorcerer and is currently studying medicine. He put forward a similar conjecture." What Sugawara Megumi didn't say was that Geto Suguru's research was to decipher the genetic code so that the cursed spirits would never appear again.
The doctor in charge was obviously also related to the world of curse arts, and sent Tsu Miki for a lot of tests.
Sugawara Megumi asked for a copy of the physical examination report and prepared to take it back to Takeshi Suguru for study.
"The news that Tsu Miki has become a sorcerer seems to have excited those guys." Sugawara Megumi frowned and looked at the people talking on the phone outside the window. She felt that they were like the wild dogs that she had seen in the unscrupulous media who would follow the smell of blood.
At times like these, let's leave it to Gojo Satoru, the strongest man in the world of sorcery.
“It’s nice to meet you, Tsumiki and Megumi.
I'm leaving, but I'm going to take this back as a souvenir." Sugawara Megumi took out the prison gate and poked it with the Tenshoku.
The prison gate opened, and Gojo Satoru and a pile of bones were spit out.
Gojo Satoru wanted to chase after the boy who took away the bones of his best friend, but his hand touched nothing.
"Satoru." Megumi Fushiguro held Gojo Satoru. This unreliable adult now made the young man find his backbone.
After seeing her anxious parents, Sugawara Megumi subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and then was hugged tightly in their arms.
Sugawara Megumi blushed as her hair was ruffled by her father unwillingly. She turned away uncomfortably and said, "It's all because of Dad being so anxious. Otherwise, I could have stayed in that world for a while longer and brought back some souvenirs."
"I'm glad you came back safely." Xia Yujie pushed his glasses with a look of relief. He seemed to have come in a hurry and didn't even take off his white coat.
Sugawara Megumi silently gave a hug to this big brother who loved to eat garbage-flavored cursed spirits when he was a child and chose to study medicine when he grew up, which stunned the adults around him.
"Ahui, have you seen me in the other world?" Xia Yujie tilted his head and said, "Tell me quietly, was my medical research successful in that world? Did you publish a paper with Professor Miyano?"
In this world, Geto Suguru is dedicated to deciphering the genetic code through medicine, explaining from a scientific perspective why they have the talent to see cursed spirits. He also has an extraordinary dream to eliminate cursed spirits all over the world after deciphering the genetic code, and reduce the tragedies caused by curses.
Sugawara Megumi shook her head. "In the other world, you gave up medicine to study at a seminary. You look really intimidating in your monk's robes."
Sugawara Megumi knew that Geto Suguru really wanted to get some of the sorcerer's body for research, but due to humanitarian reasons and the lack of a way to find it, there was no progress.
Sugawara Megumi didn't know whether it was a good idea to take out the body of Geto Suguru from another world. After hesitating for a few seconds, she finally decided to leave the body in the shadow for now.
However, Sugawara Megumi took out the prison gate and the cursed tools found on Geto Suguru: "I am not completely without gain."
Sugawara Yoshiyo looked at the four Sukuna fingers in surprise. With this thing as a cursed energy battery to prolong her life, it would not be a problem for Itadori Kaori to live in good health and see Hisahito's grandchildren get married and start their own families.
The speed of time flowing in the two worlds is different. Sugawara Megumi, who was happy about becoming a brother, soon felt tired. After washing up, she threw herself directly into the bed and fell into a sound sleep until she was awakened by the sound of the balcony door opening.
Upon learning that his friend had a wonderful journey, Yuji Itadori jumped in from the balcony carrying a large box of food. Aunt Kaori's special fried chicken and finger biscuits exuded an enticing aroma.
The smell of the food made Sugawara Megumi feel her stomach growling. Boys of this age have good appetites, and they exercise a lot, so they can easily finish all the food before dinner.
"Ahui, I heard about your experience from Aunt Jiashi." Yuji Itadori handed a large cup of Coke to his friend and asked to hear the full story with great interest: "Have you seen another me, Hui? Are there any differences between us?"
Sugawara Megumi, who was leaning on a bean bag recliner, yawned and smiled at her friend who was looking expectant. "The only difference is that Yuji didn't get a perm."
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the two young men, giving the entire picture a layer of warm color.
