Chapter 203: Pairing
Shoko looked up at Yaga Masamichi, her brows furrowed slightly as she asked, "Teacher Yaga, are you talking about the twenty fingers left behind by the Cursed King, Ryomen Sukuna, after his death a thousand years ago?!"
Suguru rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
"It's said that these are special-grade Cursed Objects that become stronger when consumed. That makes them highly sought after by both curse users and cursed spirits, which makes recovery extremely difficult."
Satoru frowned.
"The King of Curses... that title doesn't sit well with me."
Still, he didn't take it lightly. After all, even the combined forces of sorcerers from a thousand years ago had failed to defeat Sukuna.
And now, even after death, his remaining fingers were still powerful enough to be ranked as special-grade Cursed Objects.
That alone spoke volumes about Sukuna's strength.
The cursed spirit that consumes one of Sukuna's fingers could very well reach special grade, or even surpass it.
No wonder no one's completed this mission yet.
Still, for someone like him, this was at most a slightly more difficult task.
