As the chat group appeared, Satoru who was about to step inside the temple paused staring at the interface in surprise.

' Unknown being...?' Satoru thought feeling a sense of foreboding, ' Don't tell me I really raised a flag with my words?'

Shoma who also wanted to enter the building stopped as he noticed the Satoru who stood in a daze.

" What to scared by the cursed energy that you can't step inside?" Shoma said with a sneer, " As expected of the Gojo clan hyping their young master, what super grade sorcerer? it's just lies!"

Shoma words where filled with disgust and schadenfreude towards the Gojo clan which he didn't bother to hide.

Satoru stared at him---already in a bad mood, he didn't hesitate to threaten, " Whether the Gojo clan lied or not just watch your back, they might be a special grade in here that I can't defeat!"

" You-!"

Shoma eyes widen but Satoru had already stepped inside the temple.

The temple was normal, the walls where bronze with the image of gods carved on them, four pillars held the ceiling afloat and at the very end of the temple stood an altar with the miniature statue of a god on it but contradicting the normal looking temple was the malevolent cursed energy which seeped out from the miniature god and permeated the entire temple making it look demonic.

Several curse spirits---ranging from second grade to first grade---eyed the miniature god from afar, even a curse spirit with a floating black sphere for a head and elongated limbs but yet none could reach the statue as a transparent circular barrier protected it.

" They really is a special grade curse spirit" Suguru said as he stared at the curse spirit with elongated limbs who kneeled before the statue radiating pure unfiltered power.

Suguru and Shoko both stared at Satoru.

" Don't worry I'll handle it" Satoru said as a red sphere slowly materialised on his index finger.

Feeling the oppressive aura from the red sphere, Utahime body tensed as she shouted, " Wait the te-

*Boom!*

Satoru didn't listen to her as the flicked red sphere struck the special grade curse spirit sending it smashing and destroying the walls of the temple, with a final glance at the malevolent statue, Satoru vanished.

Utahime stared at the destroyed wall of the temple, clenching the talisman microphone her eyes shimmered with rage.

" Let's go " Suguru said as with a violent explosion from his cursed energy numerous curse spirit materialised and lunged at the temple curse spirits violently.

...

The elongated limbed curse spirit flew through the air before skidding to a stop outside the temple barrier.

Masamachi, Gakuganji and the two assistant straightened their body as they stared at the curse intensely.

"Human...die!!" But the curse ignored them as it swinged it elongated hands at the suddenly appearing Gojo.

*Boom!*

A dust cloud rose to the sky and a fierce gale ripped through the surrounding, shattering the pavements below.

After the dust cloud disperse the curse spirit stared wide eyed at the human who stood calmly---no signs of injury nor tear either on his clothes or his body.

*Swoosh!*

Satoru didn't waste a word on it as he vanished appearing in front of the curse spirit.

'Black flash!'

*Boom!*

Satoru fist struck the curse spirit body and a red lightning tore the surrounding, the curse spirit was sent flying back in disarray.

" Red!" Satoru flicked his finger sending a red sphere towards the curse spirit.

*Boom!*

The red sphere unlike before, struck the curse spirit creating a cataclysmic explosion which ripped through the pavement, and the the curse spirit like an arrow released from a bow flew further away.

After his attack landed on the curse spirit, Satoru didn't keep his hand down but instead e his left foot took one step forward before bringing his right hand behind his head.

*Boom!*

Space was ripped open and a skeletal hand smashed Satoru right hand causing the air to ripple with power.

" Hiding?" Satoru snorted as he gripped the retreating skeletal hand, " You dare to sneak attack me and expect me to let you go?"

*Swoosh!*

Satoru dragged the skeletal hand outside and together with it was the owner of the hand, a curse spirit shrouded in a twisting black robe.

The curse spirit was sent flying crashing on the body of the elongated limbed curse spirit.

" Another curse spirit?!" The assistant who had followed Gakuganji screamed as his face became pale.

But the cursed spirits ignored him instead staring at Satoru with a serious gaze.

*Boom!*

The elongated limbed curse spirit was the first to move, it legs stretched like rubber reaching Satoru in an instant but it didn't attack outright instead it spherical head hummed.

" Domain... expansion: sanctuary of the shattered mind!"

*Hum!*

The curse spirit cursed energy rippled like waves encaving both Satoru and it.

The scenery rapidly changed into one of a hospital hall with florescent lights and walls coated with blood.

Immediately he stepped into the domain, Satoru felt his body resisting his commands and even showing signs of attacking him.

Satoru raised an eyebrow, though curious he still remembered the mission details which was still giving him a sense of forboding.

" Domain expansion: infinite void!"

...

The skeletal curse spirit stared at the black dome intently ready to attack if the elongated limbed curse spirit attack failed----though both of them had fought for the acquisition of Sukuna finger, it still shared a single thought with the elongated limbed curse spirit---they had to kill these human.

*Shatter!*

Suddenly the black dome shattered like glass and the skeletal curse spirit eyes widen as it stared at the dispersing elongated limbed curse spirit.

' Where's...the...human?!' the curse spirit shrieked in it head as it tried locating the human but suddenly a hand grasped it head.

' Why...why...is he so strong!!' That was the curse spirit last thought as darkness enveloped it consciousness.

Gakuganji and the two assistant stared at Satoru in shock even Masamachi who knew of Satoru's feat of fighting and killing special grade curse spirit was momentarily shocked.

" Is this...is this the strongest sorcerer of our era?" Haruto muttered, not only his thoughts but the thoughts of everyone present.

Satoru silently let the dispersing head of the curse spirit go as he walked towards the temple but suddenly, Suguru, Shoko, Utahime and Sakurako sitting on top of a flying worm curse spirit burst out from the hole he created in the temple wall catching the attention of everyone.

Satoru stared at the four people on the curse spirit and the sense of foreboding intensified.

" Suguru, Shoko are you alright?" Masamachi asked as he swiftly approached the four noticing the absence of Shoma, just then before the four could reply an oppressive cursed energy burst forth from within the temple destroying the temple and a figure calmly stepped out from the dust cloud---Shoma.

But this Shoma was different, markings ran around his face and a cruel grin spread across his lips the curse energy that seeped out from his body as he walked was to malevoent that the space around him rippled.

Everyone paused, staring at the changed Shoma and then Sakurako with a tinge of fear said,

" Shoma... Shoma he ate the finger!"
