The Goofy Spring Breeze Blows Everywhere, Geto's Sister is Truly Impressive Ch. 111

"Correct! Smart kouhai~" Tsukumo made a hand gesture. "But as for removing cursed energy—right now, only a true Heavenly Restriction seems capable of that. Leaving it to the heavens isn't exactly something you can rely on. Still, it's worth some research."

"Looking at it this way, making everyone into sorcerers who can control cursed energy does seem more doable. Compared to regular people, jujutsu sorcerers are much better at controlling cursed energy and preventing leakage, so curses basically don't get born from them—unless they die and turn into curses, of course."

Tsukumo turned her head, her beautiful, sharp smile rising. "What do you all think?"

"......"

It was a very different idea from what was usually taught at Jujutsu High, and it left the group momentarily speechless.

"Creating a world where curses don't form in the first place would make everything a lot easier," Tsukumo said. "Wouldn't that be your ideal society too?"

Nanami's voice was calm. "My ideal society is a peaceful one, full of normal people."

Haibara asked, "Huh? Like how Jujutsu High is right now?"

Nanami replied, "No. The exact opposite of how Jujutsu High is right now."

Haibara: "???"

"Pfft, such a straightforward answer, my cute little kouhai," Yuki Tsukumo laughed. Then she turned to Suguru. "What about you? You're another special grade, what's your take?"

"Me...?" Suguru lowered his gaze to the floor, thinking.

Ordinary people were the source of curses, but it was people like them—sorcerers who weren't ordinary—who had to exorcise them.

That felt kind of unfair, didn't it? he thought.

Because his sister had always been frail, he'd developed the habit of protecting her—and that eventually turned into wanting to protect the weak. He put a lot of responsibility on himself.

After becoming a sorcerer, he believed even more strongly in fulfilling the duties of the strong—protecting ordinary people.

However, after becoming a jujutsu sorcerer and going through mission after mission, he had witnessed a lot of hypocrisy and ugliness in ordinary people—especially the whole Time Vessel Association incident.

Even though Riko and the others made it home safe in the end, and the Time Vessel Association was eventually reformed into the Strawberry Milk Support Club, the events back then still left a shadow in his heart.

And then there was that time his sister ran into a special grade curse on the street... That was when Suguru started to waver—maybe he had protected people just as ugly as those in the Time Vessel Association, while losing the people he cared about the most.

—Not everyone deserves to be saved.

Suguru eventually said, "I think the second idea sounds good." He stared at the floor. "If we shrink the scope of 'everyone' in the 'make everyone a sorcerer' plan... that would make the mission easier."

"Oh?" Tsukumo tilted her head slightly. "How exactly are you planning to shrink the scope?"

...Killing off part of the population was definitely the simplest way to clear the board. But thinking of the juniors around him—and the sister sitting next to him—Suguru ultimately didn't say it out loud.

Chihori suddenly spoke up next to him, answering Tsukumo's earlier question, "Actually, I have a dream society too."

Everyone turned their eyes to Chihori.

"As everyone knows, plants don't have cursed energy, and of course they can't produce curses—but they can kill curses in really amazing ways," Chihori said with a straight face. "I believe the existence of humans is a mistake. The world should be handed over to these magical plants."

Everyone paused for a beat. Tsukumo raised an eyebrow. "You're saying..."

"If we just kill off all humans and only leave the plants, then there won't be any more curses, and nature won't get destroyed either." Chihori gestured with her hands. "Or everyone can just reincarnate into plants in the next life. Filthy humans should go extinct so we can give Earth a brighter tomorrow!"

System: [...Are you the legendary Hanami 2.0, Chihori?!]

Everyone was stunned by how dead serious she was. Tsukumo paused, then laughed, "Hmm... That's a step further than me, little girl."

"I think it's totally doable," Chihori said, puffing her chest out. "Let's figure out a way to wipe out the entire human race. Or we could hybridize humans and plants—turn people into plant-hybrids and get the same effect!"

Everyone: ...Wait, is it even possible for humans and plants to hybridize?! Also, this version of "plant person" is super literal, huh—

The system tried imagining what it'd look like if a peashooter or a squash crossbred with a human, and hesitated: [That's way too cursed, isn't it?]

"Alright, I've decided. That's my goal from now on—strive for the rise of the great plant civilization, and wipe out all humans from this world!"

Suguru: "Nooo, sister, that's way too extreme!"

Right then, all his attention shifted back to his sister. The thoughts from before were completely tossed aside as he tried to reason with her, "We need to think this through rationally. Talk things out. We can't go to extremes."

Chihori (with a Fujiya smile): Great, as long as I go more extreme than my brother, he'll start talking me down instead!

Chihori: Walk Suguru Geto's path and leave Suguru Geto with no path to walk.jpg

System: [You're not just walking Suguru Geto's path anymore, you've gone full split and taken several even more extreme routes too!]

Chihori: Fight extreme with extreme. Use poison to cure poison. Perfectly valid!

Suguru earnestly said, "Sister, killing them all outright is way too extreme. Everything has light and dark. If you try to erase one side just to preserve the other, it won't work. Besides, not everyone's ignored nature."

"No, little brother, this conversation has been very enlightening. I've really thought this through rationally. Sure, humans do some things to protect nature, but compared to the damage they cause, it's still not enough." Chihori looked serious. "—In order to protect all living things, humanity must be destroyed."

System: [Wow, seamless transition into Hanami's speech. Didn't even have to write your own lines!]

Chihori (holding a sunflower.jpg): Became Hanami's long-lost stepsister right on the spot.

System: [And then the plot thickens, fake-blackening, deep undercover in the cursed spirits group, playing pretend-angst with old friends and family?]

Chihori leaned back dramatically: [Damn, guess there's always gotta be a Geto that betrays, huh?]

Is this some light novel story called Geto's Inescapable Cycle of Fate—

Chihori banged on the desk for emphasis: [But we're not running an edgy drama script—we're running a sh*tpost comedy script!]
