The King of Curses Can't Stop Me from Becoming an Idol Ch. 5

Prev | Directory | Next

None of the three found the scene before them strange. They casually chatted and walked back.

The only one who was stunned was Ryomen Sukuna, inside the girl's body.

Although he didn't understand why the girl was able to suppress his soul, he could clearly sense the condition of this body. It had no curse energy, but it wasn't cursed either. The muscle level was average, and it was just a normal human female body.

But this completely ordinary body had just thrown such an extraordinary punch.

This...

This was simply...

Amazing!

He had made up his mind—he was going to take this body!

Originally, due to his soul being suppressed, he had hoped for the body's death so he could parasitize a new one. But now, he had changed his mind.

The soul suppression was not an issue. After all, the girl had only eaten one finger, and his soul was now only one-twentieth of its original power. As long as he could get her to eat more fingers, he had the chance to reverse the suppression and take control of her soul.

This body was just perfect for him.

Moreover, he had already realized that since they passed through that door, the world they were in was no longer the original one. If he took this body, he could freely move between the two worlds and massacre people in both worlds.

Just imagining that scene made him tremble with excitement.

"Hahahaha!" He suddenly burst into loud laughter.

Saki jumped in surprise.

"What are you laughing about all of a sudden? Are you crazy?" the girl snapped, clearly annoyed.

Saki stayed at home for two days, and by the third day, she had no choice but to face the issue of taking a bath.

She couldn't just stop bathing forever, could she?

During these two days, the guy inside her body hadn't said anything, and if it weren't for the constant awareness of his presence, she might have thought she was back to normal.

After repeatedly psyching herself up, she finally took the plunge and decided to go for it.

When she came out of the bathroom, she had completely let go of any hesitation. Calmly, she applied body lotion all over herself and even measured her bust.

This was a daily ritual for her, and today was no different.

Meanwhile, inside her body, Sukuna didn't say a word, but his expression was hard to describe. There was shock, confusion, and disgust.

He was shocked that someone could take over two hours just to wash, spending almost an hour just dealing with her long hair.

He was confused as to why she made such a complicated routine out of bathing. He watched helplessly as she washed over and over, applying all sorts of strange products to her face, head, and body.

He was disgusted that someone as strong as her would waste her time on such meaningless things.

This body should be used by him!

But Saki had no idea what the guy inside her was thinking. After completing her complicated skin care routine, she felt her beauty had been enhanced and was in a great mood.

She was an idol in top form today!

At 10 PM, Saki went to bed on time, and as usual, before sleeping, she picked up the mirror from her nightstand to admire her beauty.

Sukuna's presence had left two faint marks around her eyes, like light eyeliner, which wasn't unattractive. It added a touch of charm, though it somewhat affected her pure, innocent image.

"Hey, can you get rid of these marks? It's messing with my image," she couldn't help but ask.

She could cover them up with makeup, but she rarely wore heavy makeup and sometimes even appeared in public with a bare face.

The reason she had shot to fame wasn't just her singing and dancing abilities, but also because she could be so stunning even without makeup. Her company often used this as her selling point.

Sukuna originally didn't want to bother with her, but he had been irritated by her waste of time earlier and couldn't help but enter sarcastic mode.

"You're worried about something so meaningless? You really are wasting your talent."

"What do you mean by meaningless?" Saki grumbled. "I'm an idol! Maintaining my beauty is basic professional etiquette. This is how I honor my fans."

"How boring." Sukuna snorted dismissively.

He actually didn't understand what an idol or a fan was, but that didn't stop him from judging it as completely pointless.

To be fair, when he took over the body, he should have acquired the original host's memories, but his situation was very unusual. He had almost no memory of the girl, which made him unfamiliar with modern society.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with you. You probably wouldn't be able to do it anyway," Saki sighed, giving up.

"I can do it, but why should I help you? What do I gain from it?" Sukuna suddenly spoke normally for the first time.

"Huh? You made these marks on my face, so isn't it your job to remove them? How dare you ask for something in return?" Saki was a little speechless.

"Heh, are you trying to reason with me?" Sukuna said nonchalantly. "Since you need something from me, you'll have to give something in return."

"Fine, then. What do you want?" Saki thought for a moment and asked.

"I want you to make a pact with me, promising that when I say the word 'Enchain', you'll give me control of your body for one minute," Sukuna requested with a smile.

Saki put down the mirror in her hands. She reached over to turn off the desk lamp, then burrowed under the covers and closed her eyes.

"Goodnight, annoying bastard."

She certainly wasn't going to hand over control of her body to him.

"I can promise I won't harm anyone during that one minute," Sukuna added.

"Don't talk, I'm going to sleep and get my beauty rest," Saki rejected once again.

"That includes you, by the way," Sukuna added.

"Not happening, I refuse," Saki maintained her refusal.

"Why?" Sukuna couldn't help but ask.

"Who knows what you'd do with my body? What if you strip off my clothes and yell 'I'm an idiot' in the street?" Saki boldly speculated.

Sukuna: "..."

Sukuna's veins throbbed in frustration, but since he needed this restriction to help him in the future to seize the body, he reluctantly agreed, "Fine, you can add that to the restriction."

"What if you suddenly take control of my body during my concert and fart in front of everyone?" Saki continued to speculate.

Sukuna: "..."
