"Like I said, Momonga. If you get rid of Satoru Gojo and get Ryomen Sukuna in your side then it's guaranteed. Most humans can't even see or harm you so it won't be much of a struggle. " Geto said as he raised of two fingers
'So getting Sukuna could be an optional quest to get the better ending, but killing this Gojo must be the final act of the plot. Most people can't harm me seems a bit too farfetched for a plot point though. Let's see it plays out. ' Momonga thought before nodding.
"How hard will it be to kill the man named Satoru Gojo? " Momonga asked.
"Yes, Geto. Tell us how to kill him. " Jogo asked with an impatient voice. Geto raised his index finger and motion a very condescending no.
"None of you are killing Gojo. You need to seal him. It's the only way, remember. We will use Prison Realm for that. That's why we're here in the first place. " Geto said as he shook his head and leaned back into the seat.
'Seal not kill? Does he have some sort of gimmicky skill? Or maybe he just can't die for some reason. Seems like a set up for the next plot line to me though. The let's get Gojo out of the Prision Realm arc. ' Momonga thought as his mind started to imagine what type of NPC Gojo was.
" Prison Realm!? "Jogo screamed. The smoke that was leaking from his head turned to a small puddles of a bubbling lava.
'I hope he doesn't do that every time he get excited. Also... It's getting hot here... Too hot in fact. ' Momonga noticed that on the corner of his eyes rested a small icon of a fireball and two arrows pointing down. 'Is that a fire weakness debuff? Why is he casting that? I have weakness to fire. '
After Momonga turned his attention to real life he saw a waitress running to the exit and leave.
" Hey! Someone turn on the AC it's burning in here. " The one speaking was another waitress that just approached the tables.
" Sir would you like to... " The waitress suddenly busted into fire.
'What the hell?! ' Momonga almost got up from his chair, but he didn't want break character so he held himself back. 'His debuff allowed his passive heat aura to set someone else on fire without him having to cast any actual spell. What a powerful skill. '
One after another, everyone that were inside the restaurant started to catch fire. They screamed and tried to escape, but it was over in a few moments.
'Wait. He's casting something. His fingers moved. Must be a special race skill or something. But the smell... ' Momonga thought as he watched Jogo's movements.
"Brutal way of dying. " Momonga said unable to understand why the smell of burning flesh was so real to him.
'This feels a bit to much. Maybe I should ask the devs to dial it back a bit or make it an option on the menu. Just because the tech can do it doesn't mean I wanna see it or in this case smell it.' Momonga waved his hand in the air. 'Where's the menu?'
"Momonga, please don't. " Geto spoke making Momonga look at him. "I'm curious about yours but using a cursed technique leaves a trace behind that the Jujutsu Sorcerers can follow and honestly your presence is too much as it is, so please don't follow this i***t's example. " Geto said making Momonga lower his hand.
'What is he talking about? I just want to check the menu... ' Momonga thought as he lowered his hand.
"That doesn't matter, Geto. Tell me how good am I compared to Sukuna? " Jogo asked with a huge smile on his face.
Geto placed his hand on his chin before saying, " About 8 or 9 fingers worth. "
'Fingers? What type of benchmark is that? ' Momonga thought.
"I'll kill Satoru Gojo myself and then you'll give me the Prison Realm. " Jogo said as he continued to raise the heat around himself making Geto started to cough a bit from the smoking corpses.
Geto stared straight into Jogo's eye before saying. "That's fine for me, Jogo. But... you'll die. "
"Ha ha ha ha ha. I'll be fine just wait for the good news. " Jogo said while he jumped from his seat and moved towards the exit. After a few moments he was completely gone.
" I hope you're right. " Geto said while getting up. The others got up and started to leave soon after.
"Another meeting that leads nowhere. What a waste. " Hanami said as she left alongside Dagon.
'This is so uncomfortable. I hope I get used fast. ' Momonga thought as he got up and started to follow Geto.
" Does he really have no chance? " Momonga asked.
"Nope. If he fights Gojo he's likely to die. Maybe he can fight a few seconds if Gojo is in a good mood. " Geto said as he walked over a corpse.
"That's how strong this Gojo is? Makes me think. " Momonga said while he climbed over a seat to avoid the corpse. " Sukuna's fingers is some type of benchmark, right? How do I think I would compare to that? " Momonga asked as he exited the restaurant. Geto jumped into the air and landed on top of a building nearby and the undead lord followed right before the firefighters arrived.
"Hummm... A bit though in your case Momonga. I don't know anything about your Cursed Technique and I don't think you know much about Jujutsu either. If your presence is something to go by than... " Geto said before he turned to Momonga and raised six fingers.
"I would say you are worth about six or seven fingers as you are now. If you can master your own technique you can probably get to twelve fingers worth in a few months time, that is if your Cursed Technique is as good as I think it is. " Geto said as he turned away and started walking.
'Double my power in a few months? Am I on some sort of borrowed power system for this expansion? Wait... I'll check on the stats. ' Momonga moved his fingers in the air a few times. 'Where's the menu? What type of bug hides the menu? '
"Having some troubles with your Cursed Technique? Don't get too upset. You're a young Cursed Spirit so take your time figuring out your power. If I were to give you an advice I would focus on stopping that Cursed Energy leak that you have going on now. " Geto said as he felt Momonga's cursed energy increase. "If can you do that you should go watch Jogo getting clapped by Gojo. It'll be a great lesson on fighting and how to use Jujutsu if it last for more than a microsecond. "
'Cursed Energy leak? What is he on about?' Momonga watched as Geto got further and further away. 'Does he mean...'
Momonga turned his attention the upper right side of his corner where he found an icon of a skull with a black liquid pouring from it's eyes sockets with five rings surrounding. One of which was filled.
'Was this skill on since I got here? Well... Despair Aura off please. ' Momonga thought as he pressed the icon.
*Momonga's experiment 01:
Despair Aura Level 1= Fear.
Effective against regular people in it's area of effect mode, but too effective in it's single target form (Made someone run away with his pants full of crap). Using it against people who uses Cursed Energy to fight seems counterproductive and can give my position to them. Will keep it off for now on.
