The King of Curses Can't Stop Me from Becoming an Idol Ch. 34

Prev | Directory | Next

Five minutes later, Sukuna gave up struggling and lay in the pool of blood, no longer fighting back.

Because all the bones in his body had been broken, his internal organs were completely shattered, his cursed energy was nearly drained, and his reverse cursed technique was running slow—he had no strength left to fight back.

Turned out, with just one finger's worth of power, he had absolutely no chance against the girl.

But even after getting beaten up like this, he wasn't mad. In fact, he was laughing—arrogantly, wildly, and with total satisfaction.

Psycho!

Saki silently cursed him in her head. Seeing he wasn't moving anymore, she didn't keep hitting him. Instead, she crouched down and tugged at his clothes.

"Give me your clothes."

Sukuna was a bit speechless. Even in this state, he still mocked her like he wasn't afraid of death, "With a body like yours, is there even anything to hide?"

Saki didn't hesitate and punched him again.

Sukuna let out a muffled groan. A mouthful of blood instantly gushed out, and the organs that had just barely started healing were ruptured again.

"Hmph." Saki snorted unhappily, forcibly stripped off his kimono, and put it on herself.

Once she was dressed, she gave him a light kick and asked, "Alright, I've already beaten you. Now hurry up and tell me what's going on."

"This is my innate domain. You could also call it my inner world." Sukuna chuckled as he answered, not hiding anything.

"Then how did I get in here?" Saki kept pressing.

"After you got drunk, your control over your body got weaker. I pulled your soul in," Sukuna replied lazily.

He had actually tried to take control of her body in the process, but he failed.

"Then why do you look so much like me? Can you change your appearance?" Saki asked curiously.

"Because I'm using your body as a vessel, my appearance got influenced by your... flesh."

"That's even possible? That's wild." Saki suddenly leaned in to study him closely, then broke into a bright smile and praised, "As expected of me, even the male version is hot!"

"Body-wise too..."

Her words trailed off. Her eyes dropped to his chest. She stared at his pecs, then looked down at her own chest. Her mood instantly tanked.

What the hell!

Why did his pecs look bigger than her boobs?!

Sukuna saw her utterly defeated expression and knew exactly what she was thinking. Once again, totally unafraid of death, he mocked her, "No need to compare. Mine's bigger."

And then he earned himself another punch.

After she hit him, Saki suddenly asked, "Aren't you scared I'll beat you to death? You keep provoking me like this."

"If I die, then I die. This is only one-twentieth of my soul," Sukuna replied indifferently. "But you... you never went for the kill. Guess you figured it out, huh?"

"If the me inside your body dies, I'll just revive inside that Itadori Yuji brat."

"What?!" Saki was shocked.

Sukuna paused for a second and asked in surprise, "You didn't know?"

"I had no idea," Saki shook her head honestly, then explained why she hadn't gone for the kill. "I've never killed anyone before."

She had never killed anyone—not even a monster transformed from a human.

So killing just wasn't even an option in her mind. She hadn't even realized that if she killed him, she could've gotten rid of him.

Sukuna: "..."

"Useless," Sukuna said with obvious disdain.

"Our worldviews are totally different. I'm done talking to you. Hurry up and let me out of here." Saki wasn't about to keep chatting with someone whose values were completely messed up.

Now that she knew killing him would end up hurting Itadori, she didn't have to struggle with whether to do it or not anymore.

"Alright, get lost," Sukuna couldn't be bothered to keep arguing with the girl. With a thought, he started to send her away.

"Wait!" Saki suddenly shouted.

Sukuna didn't respond at all and kept trying to kick her out—but was soon shocked to find that he couldn't.

"Don't rush, don't rush." Saki had no idea he'd just failed to send her away. Her eyes lit up as she asked, "I just remembered—I'm drunk right now and can't control myself to go wash up. Do you have any way to help?"

"My brother definitely just threw me on the bed and left me there. I haven't even done my skincare routine today."

"If you can control my body, can you help me wash up? And put on a face mask? You can skip the shower though."

Sukuna: "......"

For a second, Sukuna thought he misheard. But then, for some reason, it totally made sense. This really was something she would do.

"Sure. If you dare hand your body over to me, of course I won't say no." He replied with a grin.

That definitely sounded like he was saying: As soon as you give me your body, I'll head out and start a killing spree.

"We need to set up a binding vow," Saki quickly added. "You have to promise that once you're in control, you won't leave the house or destroy anything."

"Oh, right—and you're not allowed to hurt anyone."

She was actually being pretty thoughtful, just in case someone happened to come looking for her at this hour.

"Heh. Why would I agree to something that gives me nothing? Give me one good reason," Sukuna sneered.

"There is something in it for you." The girl looked serious. "You'll get my sincere thanks."

Sukuna: "......"

"Right now. Get out." Sukuna ordered flatly.

"Aw, come on, let's negotiate a little," Saki coaxed. "I put on sunscreen this morning. Going to sleep with it still on is terrible for my skin."

"How about this—help me wash up, and I'll treat you to a meal tomorrow, how's that?"

"Like, I'll let you take over my body for a bit and go eat whatever you want."

When Sukuna heard that, something crossed his mind. He was about to turn her down, but swallowed the words and suddenly smiled. "Alright, deal."

"Awesome!" Saki perked up, then immediately started laying out her demands with total confidence.

"First, go out and wash my face with cleanser. Don't put it straight on—lather it up first. You've watched me do my skincare routine enough times, you should know how it works, right?"

"Make sure you rinse it all off, then put on a hydrating face mask. Leave it on for fifteen minutes."

"After that, don't forget to apply eye cream. And..."

The girl went on and on with her list of instructions.

Sukuna was getting a headache just listening, but for the sake of what he wanted later, he forced himself to sit through it.
