*JasminePOV*
Hearing the name of the king of curses makes me somewhat apprehensive.
We met Mahito in the void. He told us that the King had changed, not drastically, but a more subtle change... He seemed at peace.
But seeing how he's acting here... His memories are probably gone for good.Jasmine
'Nanotechnology...' Regardless of the world, era, or identity, his genius is undeniable.
'Is this what HE wanted to show us? '
*(Outeruniverse)*
"Are you enjoying the show, Mephiles?" I ask, preparing two cups of black coffee.
"What's your goal, Shadow? You didn't bring me here just to drink. Spit it out."
Shadow sighed, "Haste makes waste, relax a little. One useful thing I learned from Sonic was, having fun isn't a sin."
"..."
Shadow takes a sip and continues, "You know, it wasn't so hard to find a world corrupted by Him, the hardest part was implementing those curses in that world, messing with destiny is a pain, imagine reincarnation, Cookie? No? Okay."
Eating a butter cookie, Shadow, after swallowing, continues, "I'm a screenwriter, Mephiles, not an actor. The NPCs you saw die down there are nothing more than obstacles to be overcome."
"They didn't have a sad life story, they didn't have a fate worthy of mention, they were just cannon fodder. The skills they possessed were meticulously given to them by me, so that My champion grew stronger, of course there was a real danger of death if he couldn't defeat them, but even without my help, he achieved what he is destined for. Greatness."
The tone in Shadow's voice makes it clear what he's feeling right now— "Can you believe this? From the beginning I planned to make him incredibly strong, but he became so on his own."—Pride.
"..." Mephiles can't believe the audacity of this son of a bitch. 'You called me here just to brag about your successor? DON'T FUCK WITH ME! '
Shadow continues, "But I didn't call you here just to tell you how badass my champion is..."
'Imagine if you didn't...'
"... Let's bet! Let's make this more interesting!"
A Image of a creature with a muscular body, Three meters tall, pale skin, four protrusions in place of eyes simulating wings, and an eight-pointed wheel floating above its head.
Shadow begins to speak, his tone shifting to a more serious one, "I don't know if you know him, but let me introduce him. Divine General Mahoraga, a being capable of adapting to any type of phenomenon. Its adaptability is directly connected to the wheel on its head, The wheel represents the cycle of continuous adaptation and evolution through battle. However, if he is attacked and killed without having time to adapt, then he will to submit to the bearer."
Shadow takes another sip of coffee, "I forgot to mention, Mahoraga originates from the cursed technique of the Ten Shadows, but only one jujutsu sorcerer in history has achieved such a feat." He paused dramatically, "Ryomen Sukuna, The King of Curses..."
"You intend to put this creature against your champion? You're insane, He may be strong, but not strong enough to fight a creature like that."
"Mahoraga is lethal without a doubt." He eats a cookie, Completely ignoring Mephiles, "But its potential is truly achieved when a mind assists it..."
Showing a macabre smile, he continues, "For this reason, I will make it an individual being, a mind capable of thinking and strategizing. A challenge with high risk, but even greater rewards."
"This is my divine comedy!"
