------------------------------------------------------------------------
1000 Years Later.
23th of February, 3018.
Two Sorcerers with staggering Cursed Energy reserves laid back in an aircraft, it lacked the expected sound of jet propulsion and seemed to glide along the breathtaking Blue skies.
One of the Sorcerers was a Black haired man who looked to be in his early twenties, he had a very muscular physique which was obvious to see from the Black compression shirt he wore along with loose white pants. He had Green eyes which held Blue colouring mixed in and was about 6'1 feet tall.
The other was a Pure White haired woman in her mid twenties, she wore a White kimono which hid most of her body. She had a Pure Black katana on her lap which she was cleaning with a cloth despite being spotless. Her eyes were a deep galactic Blue which held a single Crimson ring and was about 5'4 feet tall.
"-The skies are reported to be clear for the next 3 Hours, 34 Minutes and 16 Seconds, but expect some clouds soon enough." Said a voice that seemed to echo from the aircraft itself.
"Never mind the weather Delamain, what's the mission for again? I didn't care to read the debrief." The black haired man admitted shamelessly, leaning his back against the chair and swiping his hand against the air itself.
A moment later, a holographic screen that was invisible to all but him appeared in his vision. He interacted with it for a moment as he entered a Website named 'MeTube' and passively searched for something to watch to pass the time.
"Of course, Naokiro Zen'in. There has been a sighting of 3 separate Disaster Class Special Grade Curses in the area and they have been spotted within the 'New Shibuya' Graveyard. You should have about 10 Minutes to clear the area before the next visitor is scheduled to arrive."
Naokiro hummed at that information but didn't say anything about its contents, not caring in the slightest for the small time provided to exorcise Disaster Curses. He eventually smiled slightly, stopped scrolling on his holographic screen and clicked on a video, it played sound in his a moment later.
"Hello everybody, my name is Markiplier! And Welcome to Five Nights at Freddy 57: Freddy in Space – The Re-Remastered Remake!"
The white haired woman hummed as well at the information before pressing a button on the side of her chair, a traditional cup of Green tea was dispensed from an opening of the aircraft's interior.
"...Delamain, is Uncle free? I wanna ask him something." She said with a slightly monotone voice, she took a sip of her tea afterwards but didn't show any reaction towards it.
"The Lord has a meeting with a Brazilian Sorcerer soon but if you can finish the mission quickly, you may be able to speak with him right after the meeting." Delamain answered without a moment's hesitation.
"...I see. Thanks Delamain." The white haired woman said as the corners of her mouth tipped upwards, she turned her head to the left and looked out the window at the city under them.
"It is of no matter, Shiki Gojo. I was built to serve after all." The AI known as 'Delamain' responded cheerfully.
The city glimmered with sleek skyscrapers, neon-lit highways, and serene rooftop gardens. Holographic billboards project vibrant art, while cheerful people fill bustling plazas and parks. Drones glide overhead, delivering food and packages to many people.
"Pfft.. Someone's coming to meet dad? They're either Stupid, have no Fear or just had too much Brain Rot. I gotta come along and watch the chaos!" Naokiro laughed, he knew that something either funny or exciting would happen from the meeting.
"...Brain Rot addiction is no joke. It's a very serious Drug Addiction affecting thousands of people." Shiki interjected as the corners of her mouth tipped down into her version of a frown.
"Well whoever is addicted to Brain Rot is a Joke to me! I'd understand getting addicted to something like Copium, but Brain Rot? Seriously?! We were all told how bad that shit is to us in like the 3rd year of school!" He replied, obviously not caring in the slightest.
Before Shiki Gojo could respond, the aircraft stopped moving and hovered mid air. The window shook for a moment before splitting apart horizontally down the middle revealing the breathtaking visage of the ultra technologically advanced city below.
"We have arrived."
In the distance there were two gigantic Wolf Statues, one Black and the other White – They could be recognised to have the likeness of the Ten Shadow Cursed Technique's 'Divine Dogs'. They had the names 'Blizzard' and 'Nyx' proudly emblazoned upon them.
"Heh.. No matter how many times I look at it, it never gets old." Naokiro muttered fondly as Shiki nodded along with a small smile.
"Of course it couldn't, our Lord had guided the World in his 1000 Year Voyage in order to ensure this Utopia for all existed and wouldn't be marred by evil." Delamain stated, a sense of pride being evident in his voice.
"Haha! Leave the Glazing talk for the Acolytes and send out the stairs buddy." Naokiro called out as he ran a hand through his hair and waved dismissively at the craft.
"...Very well."
Dozens of self propelled globs of metal shot out of the sides of the aircraft, morphing mid air till they formed platforms which held a form of Anti-Gravity thruster technology in order to float – The same form of technology which propelled Delamain's aircraft.
"Happy hunting you two and May the Shadows Guide your Path."
""And may the Spark of Infinity Clear yours.""
With that, the two Sorcerers began walking down the path made by the Anti-Gravity platforms. They took in the sights of the peaceful city. Some people were flying around with Jetpacks powered by the same method they used and there were kids running around and using Cursed Techniques.
A Blonde haired child shot a blast of flames at his Red and White haired friend who made a wall of ice with a flick of his hand, a third Green haired child came in from behind them with a technological nanosuit around him as he hugged the two of them at once.
It was a Paradise – Cursed Energy living in perfect harmony with hyper Advanced Technology.
Through a 1000 Year Voyage, Guided by Compassion and Strength, The Divine Lord had guided the World unto a New Age.
An Age of Harmony.
Shiki and Naokiro descended before a massive graveyard in the Heart of New Shibuya City. It had a plaque at its front which said the following:
"This was built under the Order of The Divine Lord in the memory of all the lives lost or affected by 'The Shibuya Eclipse' on the 31st of October, 2018. May the lost Souls within find Eternal Peace."
Shiki wrapped a hand around her katana's hilt, pulling it out to reveal an Inky Black blade that seemed to drip with Darkness. Naokiro grinned playfully by her side, bringing his hands together and began cracking his knuckles in preparation for the battle as Green sparks of electricity ran down his arms.
The two of them walked into the Graveyard, immediately spotting multiple Grade one curses. Yet despite being in the presence of once dangerous curses, they were not giving them even a modicum of care.
"So you're telling me you really don't like him?" Naokiro asked with a hint of teasing in his voice as he disappeared from his place, reappearing behind a grade one curse and running an arm straight through it – Killing it instantly without even blinking.
"No. Ginko is just funny, I like having him around because he makes me laugh." Shiki answered, her voice as monotone as usual even while her blade cut 2 Grade One curses in twain with a single swing.
"Uh-huh… And there's no chance that there might be more to it?" He questioned, putting his hand into his pocket and taking a Golden coin from within it.
Naokiro flipped the coin in his hands, electricity running through it and causing it to float off the Viridian arcs of lightning in the palm of his hands before being shot outwards and obliterating 4 Grade One curses in a single strike and returning to him.
"Nice, collateral!" He called out to himself while catching the Coin and pumping an arm in celebration.
"No, there's nothing to it. He's just a friend." Shiki assured dismissively, stepping to the side when a curse threw itself at her before cutting them apart and reducing them to dust.
The two sorcerers paused a moment later when they both felt the presence of 3 Special grade curses lying just ahead of themselves. They looked at each other and nodded before channelling a connection to his partner through a communication chip they both implanted.
"That's them isn't it?" Naokiro asked, his voice being projected directly into his partner's brain through their shared technological telepathy.
"Mhm…" Shiki confirmed as they both continued onwards, the trio of curses came into view and caused her to hum in recognition.
"Aren't those the Disaster Curses that Uncle said he killed back in the day?" She asked, turning to her partner who swiped against the air and summoned a screen, he scrolled through it for a moment before showing her what he found.
"Yeah, apparently their names are 'Jogo', 'Hanami' and 'Dagon'. They must've been reborn recently." He revealed, the descriptions matched exactly to the curses.
The two sorcerers relaxed and made their way to the curses, eavesdropping on their conversation as they closed the distance casually.
"-So Hanami, have you seen Mahito yet? What about Seism?" Jogo questioned his friend after being separated for a 1000 years.
"No. I met Dagon here a few days ago when we felt you awaken." Hanami replied, gesturing to their fully grown comrade.
"I see.. We should be on the lookout- Eh?" Jogo muttered but stopped when he felt two presences behind them.
He turned to it and saw two Human Sorcerers standing behind them, one with arms crossed and another simply wiping a hauntingly familiar katana with a cloth. The male sorcerer chuckled at them, waving an arm at them dismissively and speaking.
"Oh~, don't mind us! Continue on, it's only polite to let your prey have some final words with their friends."
Jogo blinked his singular eye, raised a hand at them before firing off a ginormous Blast of flames which would kill the average Special grade curse instantly. He looked at the cloud of smoke for a moment with obvious disgust before turning back to his comrades.
"...Anyways, we should keep on the lookout for those two. Seism should make it very obvious when he is reborn-" Jogo continued on but was cut off by a laugh sounding out from behind himself.
"Pffft… Hahaha~! Y'know we were being polite and letting you continue to speak to your friends one last time but this is just a Dick move on your part."
The Disaster curses watched on in horror as the smoke cleared up to reveal the two sorcerers standing completely and utterly unharmed, not a single singed hair. Jogo felt a sense of Horrified Deja Vu and muttered under his breath.
"...How the fuck?"
"Haha! Well since you're already gonna die, I might as well tell you. I've already Adapted to hotter shit than that and she literally can't be affected by anything if she doesn't want to." Naokiro answered smugly while pointing at himself then at his partner.
"You shouldn't so willingly reveal our Cursed Techniques to them, Naokiro. Now it's gonna be too easy to Kill them." Shiki stated, her voice as monotone and emotionless as ever, although it now held a slight sense of pity.
The Curse known as Jogo seemed to take offence to that and raised a hand to point at them, ready to blast them with another bout of flame but paused half way when he felt and saw something odd.
His arm was gone.
Jogo jumped back in surprise and Horror, standing next to his comrades who tensed up and got ready to battle. He tried regenerating his arm only to find himself completely unable to do so.
"W-What the-?"
"Sorry. But anything that I cut along the Crimson lines revealed by my eyes Die instantly and can't be regenerated." Shiki revealed from behind him, the corners of her mouth tipped up in amusement.
However, before Jogo could respond, he felt the world begin to tip and tilt. And then a second later, his head fell onto the ground, separated from the rest of his body.
The Disaster Curse known as 'Jogo' has Died before he could even realise it.
The name given to Shiki Gojo's Cursed eyes by The Lord is 'The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception'.
Hanami and Dagon jumped back even further in Horror at watching their comrade be killed so easily and quickly, they didn't even realise he was Dead before he faded away into dust.
Shiki Gojo paid no mind to the two Curses, believing them to be Absolutely Zero threat. She took out a cloth once again and cleaned her Inky Black katana's blade, whispering to it under his breath in reverence.
"Sorry to bother you so much, Kage. I promise to keep you cleaner next time…"
Naokiro Zen'in grinned demonically at their fear, walking up towards the two remaining Disaster curses with an amuse chuckle escaping his mouth.
"No need to try and hide it, you two filthy mutts. I can see very clearly how much your Souls are quaking in our Presence. I promise to make it quick." He mocked as Green electricity ran down his arms.
He was not lying, thanks to the Cursed Evolution he had inherited from his Father, Naokiro Zen'in's vision was on a whole different level. He could view the Contours of the Soul of even inanimate objects, had Heat Vision as well as Electricity Manipulation and some other Sub-Abilities.
Dagon and Hanami noticed very clearly the danger they were in and each made their Domain Expansion's hand sign, ready to use theirs in order to save themselves at all costs.
But it seems that Fate did not care for their struggle as just before they could use either Domain, a large Shadow formed over them.
Hanami was the first to look up at its source, only to be met with a Blast of Plasma-like Flames which reduced her entire Body to ash in an instant.
"H-Hanami!" Dagon cried out and went to run.
It was too late for him to even struggle as a ginormous Abyssal Maw closed over his body and swallowed him whole. The maw belonged to a humongous Abyssal Dragon with jagged scales and two crimson eyes who perched above the two sorcerers.
"ARGH, DAMNIT! Alduin, I had that handled y'know! You can't just kill steal!" Naokiro exclaimed with a dejected expression at his prey being stolen.
[Image (In Discord)]
The Abyssal Dragon known as 'Alduin' moved his head up, visibly swallowing a huge piece of food before turning back down to Naokiro with a scoff before his maw opened up.
"Well, I was just doing the rounds and noticed a tasty meal. If you wanted to keep your prey, you shouldn't have played with your food and eaten it immediately like I do." The Dragon said, shockingly being capable of clear speech.
"If that's all, I'll be going now. I still have some other cities to patrol under the Master's usual order." Alduin said before turning away and beginning to flap his wings to fly away but was stopped when a monotone voice called out to him.
"Alduin. You will take us back home." Shiki stated, her emotionless voice leaving no room for argument.
"Erm.. And why do I need to do that?" The Dragon questioned, he could almost feel a drop of sweat falling down his Abyssal scales, he has always been inexplicably terrified of this woman.
"If you don't do it, I'll tell Midir that you're the one that ate his Sheep hoard."
"You wouldn't!"
Shiki Gojo's mouth tipped upwards at the corners.
"ARGH! FINE!"
…
5 Minutes later.
Just outside Jujutsu Headquarters.
Alduin landed in the middle of a clearing outside a humongous Traditional Japanese Compound, he leaned his head down as Shiki and Naokiro jumped down from his back and onto the ground.
"Listen, I was never here, Got it?" The Dragon whispered before flapping his wings and flying off into the distance hurriedly.
The two sorcerers stood side by side and watched in amusement as Alduin flew off, Naokiro Zen'in chuckled while Shiki Gojo stared impassively although the corners of her mouth tipped up slightly.
They turned away and walked towards Jujutsu Headquarters, spotting a woman clad up their neck in Cybernetics which leaked Cursed Energy.
"Yo wassup! Nice ride ya got there!" The black haired woman called out cockily, she had a hand on the hilt of a sheathed katana and the other raised to wave at them.
"Ah, you must be the one that came to meet my Father." Naokiro guessed, looking the woman up and down.
She was clad in full body armoured Cybernetics, they held a perfect harmony of technology and Cursed Energy which could be classed as Special Grade. She had a Katana on a hilt by her left side which also could be classed as Special grade from the Cursed Energy traces alone.
And despite that she doesn't have a hint of Cursed Energy within her own body.
"Oh, how rude of me to not introduce myself! You're Naokiro Zen'in, correct? Some people call me 'Jetstream Sam' but you can call me Luna Kuroda. I am a Special Grade One Sorcerer and the Brazilian Sorcerer who wanted to meet your 'Lord'."
A Special Grade One Sorcerer is a classification set by Jujutsu Headquarters long ago, it is reserved for Sorcerers capable of fighting equally and winning against Special Grade threats but don't have the qualification to be classed as one themselves.
"Hn.. Those names don't match up at all…" Shiki pointed out, finding the difference to be curious.
"Well, to be honest.. I'm not quite sure why they call me that myself, something about an old 1000 year old game…" Lena admitted white rubbing the back of her head.
Before anyone could respond, the door of the Jujutsu Headquarters compound opened up as a calm voice called out to them.
"The Divine Lord will see you now."
They all turned to the source of the voice and faced a Red eyed woman of average height, she had her similarly Red hair tied upwards into a neat bun with two bangs by each side of her head.
"Rin-Neechan!" Shiki Gojo called out with uncharacteristic excitement.
[Image (In Discord)]
"Welcome back, Young Master Naokiro and Young Lady Shiki." Rin responded with a fond smile, her hands were held together in front of herself as she turned to face the duo of Sorcerers.
"Urgh… Rin can you please stop calling me 'Young Master' already? I'm turning 328 Years old this year, Shiki's 317 years old too!" Naokiro sighed in defeat, slouching slightly at the perceived indignity.
"Fufufu~.. You'll always be Young and Cute to me~." Rin said teasingly while giggling into a hand, causing Naokiro to look away with an embarrassed blush.
Rin coughed into her hand and turned to the awaiting Brazilian Sorcerer and bowed her head slightly before gesturing to the door with the same hand.
"Ahem.. Apologies for the wait, you may follow me to meet The Divine Lord." She called out, prompting Lena to chuckle and wave dismissively.
"Ah, it's no problem really! I got to take a gander at some beautiful sights in the meantime."
Rin hummed at that before motioning for them to follow her and walking into the compound, they walked past dozens of buildings which had breathtaking Japanese architecture which was perfectly melded with hyper advanced Technology.
"Yo, Rin! Did my siblings come back from their Holiday yet or nah?" Naokiro asked as he placed two hands in his pockets, Shiki nodded along by his side since her siblings had also gone on the same trip.
"Unfortunately not, Young Master. They should be back in a couple of days as long as they stick to the plan and don't extend the trip." Rin answered dutifully as they passed a group of men training in kendo in the middle of an open walled Dojo.
"Hah.. For real? So they're not coming back for another month? Those fuckin' Bums…" Naokiro sighed in disappointment, it seemed that them leaving the responsibility to him and Shiki was a common occurrence.
"It's okay, Naokiro. We can handle the curses alone." Shiki reassured, although the corners of her mouth tipped down slightly.
"Ya, I know. We can handle anything together, but it would be nice if those Bums atleast acted their age and helped around every once in a while." He responded as he idly placed a hand on his partner's head, she didn't react at all.
Rin stopped before a huge double door, she tapped on its side twice before it opened by itself and allowed them to look into its insides. Through the door was a huge inner Garden with lush greenery and wildlife, both of which were teaming with Cursed Energy.
"Shiki, Naokiro, could you two hang back a little to allow our guest a chance to meet the Lord alone." Rin asked while turning to the two of them, she got an impassive nod and shrug in response.
Shiki walked to the side and sat down on a nearby log, a few moments later a hawk with pure black feathers landed next to her. She extended an arm and watched the hawk hopped to stand on top of it, Shiki passively scratched the hawk with slightly upturned lips.
A green and red leopard jumped down from a nearby tree and walked over to Naokiro who welcomed it with a cheerful grin, he kneeled down and began petting its head as it purred.
Lena Kuroda walked behind Rin Otomo through the forest, spotting all manner of creatures along the way. From massive snakes, to tigers and wolves, she even saw an elephant drinking water from a river.
A few moments later, the two of them reached a clearing behind which was a hill. And on top of the hill was a Massive Abyssal Dragon, this one had no eyes but seemed to glow with Violet Cursed Energy even as he slept.
"Looks like I made it.. That's the Legendary 'Darkeater Midir', isn't he?" Lena muttered under her breath, feeling a mixture of excitement and dread building in her gut along with an unfamiliar feeling overtaking her Soul unconsciously.
Rin Otomo stopped in front of her and turned to face her, she looked her up and down before speaking with closed eyes.
"You should feel honoured and grateful, it seems the other Guardians will be present at the meeting as well. Go on and make your peace, just be sure to not humiliate yourself before my Lord." She advised before stepping to the side and allowing her to get closer to speak.
However, it was then that Lena Kuroda came to a Terrifying Realisation…
She Couldn't Breathe.
She could hardly even Think.
Her body was choking itself on Instinct, a Primal Instinct in her Soul had decided that Asphyxiation would be preferable to disturbing those she dared approach.
For what she was in the presence of was not even that of Man or Monster, but of Divinity.
She was in the presence of Gods.
'Come on.. Breath! BreathBreathBreathBreathBreathBreathBreathBreathBreathBreath!'
Lena Kuroda began quivering her place, never in her life had she been faced by such Primal Existential Terror.
It was then that one of The Gods she so foolishly intruded turned their attention to her, a Crimson Orb of Hellfire which held Golden Rings stared into the very Depths of her Soul.
Something within her Soul gave up at that instant, her consciousness was lost as she simply fell over onto the ground.
Silence overtook the clearing following the Sorcerer's unfortunate accident, eventually an amused chuckle cut through the atmosphere and broke the invisible tension.
"Am I really that Terrifying?"
"HAH! You tell me Megumi, cuz this is starting to get ridiculous! How many guests is that now that just fainted in your presence? You sure you ain't doing it on purpose?"
Megumi Fushiguro smirked at that, the past 1000 years had been quite kind to him. He was currently shirtless and only wore white Hakama pants, revealing all of the Tattoos he had gained over time. He had also grown to be passively 7'4 feet tall.
The only visibly new ones were white and black tattoos of a snake devouring its own tail on his 4 arms. He also had his Golden Dharma Wheel floating gently behind his head. He had also developed a small beard which he shaved the other day.
[Image of Megumi Post 1000 Year Timeskip (In Discord)]
The Divine Lord laughed uproariously a moment later as Rin simply bowed to them and gestured at Lena's unconscious body, Cursed Energy burned at her fingertips as it was lifted from ground. She walked away with the body in tow to remove it from her Master's sight.
Rin Otomo had been enhanced by her Master throughout time and had even been granted a Cursed Technique of her own choice through Soul Manipulation. She had chosen a powerful Telekinetic Cursed Technique in order to serve him more efficiently which he was more than happy to provide.
"You sure you weren't the one to do that, Satoru? Your freaky ass literal Six eyes would freak basically anyone out." Megumi teased a few moments later with a grin, summoning a gourd of Sake with one hand as he did.
Satoru Gojo had not changed all that much in the past 1000 years but he had eventually gained a Cult of his own. And through their worship of his Six Eyes; he had evolved, gaining 4 more ethereal eyes beneath and above his main eyes.
[Image (In Discord)]
"Argh dammit! I forgot to retract my eyes again!" Satoru exclaimed with some embarrassment, his ethereal eyes closing and fading away a moment later as a familiar voice spoke from behind him.
"HAH! A thousand years later, and you still act like the same dumbass I met in Junior year of Jujutsu High! It's almost amazing really!"
"I don't wanna hear anything about change from you especially! Atleast I changed my style every now and then! Why do you still only wear Lab Coats and all Black clothes?! You aren't even a Doctor anymore!" He called out while pointing at his own white and black Yukata and then at the one who spoke.
Shoko Ieiri took a drag of her cigarette and leaned back in her chair, removing it and breathing out smoke before resting the same hand on a chair. Even 1000 years later, she didn't look to have aged a single day and retained her beauty.
[Image (In Discord)]
Megumi Fushiguro had completely and perfectly Adapted to ageing when he reached 24 Years old, and using that knowledge he had been able to apply his experience on the Soul to help others replicate his Ageless biology without needing his help – He had created a Fountain of Youth.
However, not everyone would choose to live forever and so most of his comrades had simply chosen to extend their lives for a few hundred years before letting go eventually. Only a few of his friends and family from back then had chosen to remain.
"Bitch please, I always look good in a Lab Coat." Shoko stated with complete confidence, it was not unfounded.
Before Satoru Gojo could respond, they heard two sets of feet approach the three of them. Turning to face them, they all saw Naokiro Zen'in and Shiki Gojo approaching them.
"Uncle!" Shiki called out cheerfully, the corners of her mouth turned upwards.
Megumi Fushiguro's face visibly brightened at hearing her, he threw away his Gourd and was covered with Darkness. An instant later, he appeared before Shiki on one knee while one of his hands ruffled her hair as he spoke, one could almost see flowers be born out of the very air around him.
"What can I do for my Favourite Niece?"
'He always did spoil her the most, even more than his own children. I'm pretty sure it's cuz she looks exactly like Tsumiki but with White hair and Cursed Blue and Red eyes…' Shoko thought fondly as she and Satoru sighed while shaking their heads in amusement as they watched this happen.
"I want Midir to fly us over to New Yokohama, my friends are having a party there and I wanna go." Shiki said shamelessly.
"Come on Shiki, even you know that's ridiculous. We could just get Delamain to take us-" Naokiro chastised but was cut off by his father speaking over him.
"Of course, whatever you want sweetie!" Megumi replied with a grin as he raised a hand and snapped his fingers.
Midir moved his head up from his deep slumber at the sound of his Master's call before he made his way down towards them and wordlessly leaned his head down, knowing what he needed to do without needing to be told.
Shiki Gojo shockingly smiled from ear to ear before hugging Megumi and speaking with obvious cheer and giddiness.
"Thanks Uncle!"
Megumi Fushiguro felt one of his Hearts stop from the sheer cuteness but said nothing about it and ignored it, choosing to simply enjoy the moment.
Shiki let go and walked over to Midir before jumping on top of his back, she was followed by Naokiro who simply shook his head in amusement and jumped atop Midir as well.
"You two be safe!" Shoko called out with a warm smile.
"We'll be fine~! We're The Strongest after all." Naokiro shouted back as Midir began to flap his wings and took off.
"Hn.. Bye Uncle! Bye Auntie!" Shiki shouted, her voice echoed due to her distance.
"Oi! That's not fair! What about me?!" Satoru cried out comically at being completely ignored, sulking slightly.
"Haha~! Don't worry Satoru, even if they ignore you we can still have our daily fight to cheer you up." Megumi said while patting the white haired man on the back, immediately renewing his vigour. He took a hand to the right side of his chest and forced his failed Heart to beat again with an electric shock.
"Hell yeah! Wait, speaking of fighting.. How long till Sukuna is done with his stupid Tour?! He's been gone for 2 weeks now, I haven't fought him in forever!" Satoru questioned incredulously
He turned to Rin Otomo who had come back a few moments ago, she chuckled slightly and swiped against the air. A holographic screen appeared from thin air which she turned around, it showed Ryomen Sukuna sitting on a stage with a microphone in one hand while he sang.
"You are my Special~!"
[Image (In Discord)]
"KYAAAAAAA~~~!" "I love you, Sukuna-sama~!!" "Please give me your babies, Sukuna-sama~!" "Please eat me, Sukuna-sama~!"
The crowd before him ate it up completely, cheering insane fangirls screaming at his voice. It seems that The King of Curses took up singing as a hobby during the past 1000 years and had gotten quite the dedicated fanbase.
They all laughed at the sight, it never got old how insane it was that Sukuna of all people would enjoy doing things like that.
Megumi and Shoko got up from where they were and began walking to Satoru who awaited them with a hand on his hip. Megumi turned to Rin a few moments later to ask her a question before leaving.
"Before I go and forget; Rin, what happened over in America following 'The Incident'" He asked, drawing a weary sigh from his Servant.
"Well, there was a bit of a stir when they decided that since Corporations are People; they could technically Run for President! But President Walt Disney-Pepsi-Comcast has done wonders for the Economy! Being that it is.. Now the Economy…"
"Hm.. Quite. Remind me to send Raga over there to destroy the White House again and tell them to quit it with all the Capitalist Dystopia Bullshit." Megumi stated with a deadpan stare, he would not allow his hard work to be ruined by Capitalist Retards.
"Of course, my Lord."
Rin Otomo bowed deeply as he Lord turned away, Satoru Gojo grinned before a Yellow Aura covered his right hand. He held it outwards, a ripple in space formed a moment later as it opened a Wormhole in Space.
"Yellow."
They walked through the Wormhole, entering a Cherry Blossom garden which held a gazebo in it. Within that gazebo was a trio of Women, two of which could be recognised as Utahime Iori and Akane Zen'in. The third was a Silver eyed woman with messy white hair and wore a white Kimono.
The trio of women perked up at their entrance and sat up from their chairs where they were having some tea and speaking. They made their way to the visitors with Utahime going to Gojo and the other two going to Megumi.
Akane Zen'in reached her Husband and was brought into a deep hug, she pulled herself out of his and Kissed him before moving to the side. The white haired woman hugged him as well before Kissing him deeply, he pulled away a moment later and stared her in the eyes.
"Tengen, I need you to do the thing." He said with a fond smile.
[Image (In Discord)]
"Hn~.. Of course, Husband." Tengen Zen'in replied as a smile covered her face, reaching a hand up before snapping her fingers. The space behind the group seemed to fold in on itself before expanding outwards to create a ginormous field of Cherry Blossom trees for him and Satoru to fight in.
Over the past Thousand years, Tengen and Megumi had gotten very close shortly after she received her new body. He taught her to maintain her immortality in it without the need for another Vessel and they had bonded more than expected during the process.
When they had told her about it, Akane revealed that was more than happy to share so it hadn't taken too long after that before him and Tengen also got Married. Inadvertently even further solidifying his claim as Leader of the entire Jujutsu Society.
"Thanks honey."
Megumi kissed Tengen and Akane on the forehead before walking off Satoru and Shoko into their new battlefield, casually waving as he went.
They walked to a massive clearing filled with vibrant cherry blossom trees in full bloom, their pink petals scattered across the lush, green terrain. A gentle stream winds through the centre, guiding the eye toward the distant, majestic mountains under a soft, pastel-coloured sky. The sunlight breaks through fluffy clouds, casting a warm glow over the scene.
[Image (In Discord)]
Megumi Fushiguro stood in place as the gentle breeze flowed through his hair, taking in the magnificent visage of the World he had worked so hard to create.
Shoko Ieiri sat under a nearby Cherry Blossom tree, lighting up a cigarette and leaning back to enjoy the fight as she did for the past 1000 or so years.
Satoru Gojo took a breath of air before jumping in place with excitement and turning to face his Best Friend, he got into a battle stance as a Black aura formed in his right hand and a White aura formed in his left.
"Alright, Megumi! Let's begin!" He shouted with obvious giddiness, never once had he gotten tired of battling his Brother over the past 1000 years.
"Try your Best to not make the record between you two get even more one sided than it already is, cuz 1,176 - 347,317 is just sad!" Shoko called out with a snicker, drawing a disgruntled sigh from Satoru.
"Oh shut up! I'm working on fixing that!"
"Hahaha~!"
Megumi Fushiguro found himself laughing softly as Cherry Blossoms began to fall all around them, one leaf fell into the palm of one of his extended hands. He stared at it with a grin as memories of the past 1000 years began replaying in his mind.
The first time he woke up in his Body.
The first time he met Satoru, Shoko and Tsumiki.

"I… I have no Regrets. Not a single one…" Megumi whispered under his breath as he watched the Cherry Blossom gently fly away in the breeze.
The Falling Leaves tell a Story…
"Hahahahahaha~!"
Megumi Fushiguro laughed freely, his Soul felt light and airy. He was ready to let go of his one and only remaining Secret.
About how a Man became The Strongest Sorcerer in History and Overcame Death itself in becoming a Higher Being…
"Satoru, Shoko, before we start I need to tell you something – To tell you both something."
"What is it?" "Hm?"
"Back when I was a kid, I knew the Future."
"…I KNEW IT!" "Heh.. Why am I not surprised?"
This Was The Story of Megumi Fushiguro, Jujutsu Kaisen's Greatest 'Potential Man'.
~~~~~~~FIN~~~~~~~
Shit…
This is the End.
Where did the time go huh?
Thank you all for the love and support for the past 6 months (Yes, it has been that Long. Crazy, I know).
This has Truly been OUR Jujutsu Kaisen!
ALSO! Can we get final Ending Reviews? That'd be great, thanks.
My full thoughts and plans for the future will come in a bit.
I'm just gonna take a bit to lay back and bask in the moment.
Cuz now I can finally rest, and watch the sun rise on a grateful universe…
