"If I die during this play, I will literally eat this computer screen!" Renji pointed at the monitor, shouting in a near-frenzied state.
The next second, a massive "Defeat" appeared on the screen.
"This one doesn't count. If I die in the next one, I'll walk out the door and let a truck smash me into a paste."
Before his voice could even fade, the familiar red "Defeat" appeared once again.
"What the hell! I'm not playing anymore!"
Then, Renji stood up, reaching for the Coke beside him, but his hand met empty air. Realizing he was out of Coke, he sighed and pushed open the door of his room.
Outside, the sun was shining brightly and the air was incredibly fresh.
Suddenly—
BOOM!!!
That was the last image Renji saw: a truck appearing at the entrance of his residential complex.
Where the hell are you driving!!!
Then, his consciousness began to sink continuously.
An unknown amount of time passed.
[Welcome to the main god space, Number 114514]
[The main god space guarantees that the transmigration process is absolutely fair, just, and open. You are about to embark on a very meaningful journey. Of course, once you pass through six worlds, you can obtain the right to return to your original world.]
[Detected that the Host is currently in critical condition. The main god space is re-synthesizing you...]
[Host: Renji

[Given that the Host has arrived at the main god space for the first time and is unable to think independently, the main god space will automatically draw a template for you. After the draw, you will be deployed into the initial world. The Host is being given three seconds to think. Your silence will be taken as consent.]

[The main god space has automatically drawn a template for you.]
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the template: Okkotsu Yuta (A)]
[Obtained template abilities: Infinite Cursed Energy, Copy... (Remaining to be unlocked)]
[Infinite Cursed Energy: An endless flowing stream of Cursed Energy is hidden within your limbs and bones. You can use this power without limit, you are a walking Cursed Spirit.]

[The Host's name has been changed to: Okkotsu Renji]
...
Night.
Outside Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical College
Renji slowly woke up.
"Where... is this?"
"Yo! Okkotsu Renji, you're awake. This is outside Jujutsu High. You're safe now." A serious voice rang out from beside him.
While digesting the reality of the main god space in his mind, Renji looked up in a daze.
He saw a middle-aged man wearing sunglasses sitting on a tree stump, quietly staring at him. As a veteran anime fan, Renji immediately recognized who this man was.
Yaga Masamichi, the teacher of the strongest Jujutsu Sorcerer and the principal of Tokyo Jujutsu High.
"You're lucky to be alive, kid. Not many people can survive a Special Grade Cursed Spirit, let alone..."
Yaga Masamichi chuckled, then took out a piece of paper and handed it to Renji, who was lying on the ground.
Renji took the paper and saw that the paper clearly read:
Special Grade Cursed Spirit Okkotsu Renji Creation Plan. If he cannot be taken away, kill him and take his head. Bounty: 100 million.
Someone wants to turn me into a Cursed Spirit? Could it be something Suguru would do after his body was taken over by Kenjaku?
No!
Yaga Masamichi doesn't look as old as he did when the original story's plot began.
"The four Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerers sent by Jujutsu High for the rescue are all dead. When I rushed there, you were entrusted to me by the only remaining elder of your family, asking me to protect you." Yaga Masamichi said seriously, crossing his arms.
"And then... now..."
Renji had already processed the fact that he had transmigrated.
"Before you have the ability to protect yourself, I will take you in as my student. This can be considered doing right by my old friend."
"Huh?"
"What do you mean 'huh'? First, get the Cursed Energy leaking from your body under control. Come, I'll teach you how to control your Cursed Energy first. That'll count as getting started. Your Cursed Energy is immense, one could even say infinite. If you can't control it well, I'll kill you. That's better than you being turned into a Cursed Spirit by someone."
Yaga Masamichi picked up Renji and leaped into the night towards Jujutsu High.
...
The following afternoon.
Inside the teaching building of Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical College, three teenagers were sitting in a certain classroom.
"Seriously, what does sensei want with us again? This is my precious basketball time. If he doesn't buy some candies, I'm definitely spiking his water with laxatives." A boy with snow-white short hair and blue eyes said.
Beside him, a boy with a bun and strange bangs squinted and smiled. "Now, now... Satoru, sensei must have something to say. He never works overtime when there are no classes. Aside from exorcising Cursed Spirits, he is always on his way to exorcise Cursed Spirits. He wouldn't do something meaningless."
"I don't think it's anything major."
A few rows behind them, a brown-haired girl with a cigarette in her mouth traced a circle with her finger, the smoke forming a ring with her movement.
While the three were talking—
Tap... Tap... Tap...
Footsteps were clearly audible outside the wooden door.
Then, Yaga Masamichi pushed open the door.
"Satoru, Suguru, Shoko, it's rare for you to be on time for once." Yaga Masamichi's tone was as usual.
"Sensei, if you don't have anything else, we're leaving." The fifteen-year-old Satoru said.
Currently, like the other two, he was a first-year student at Jujutsu High. However, it was worth noting that while Shoko was a Grade 2 Jujutsu Sorcerer, Satoru and Suguru were both Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerers.
Yaga Masamichi's lip twitched, and he cleared his throat.
"You brat! Of course I called you here for something serious. Starting today, you'll have a new classmate. His name is Okkotsu Renji. You guys can chat amongst yourselves." Yaga Masamichi clapped his hands.
Outside the wooden door, the ten-year-old Renji stepped forward.
Tap.
Hum!!!
In an instant, terrifying Cursed Energy gushed out unconsciously.
"What?!" Satoru stood up instantly, his blue eyes filled with confusion.
"This new classmate..."
Suguru opened his eyes and looked toward the wooden door. As a Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer, there was no way he could fail to notice a Cursed Energy so close to that of a Special Grade Sorcerer.
Shoko let out a yawn. "What powerful Cursed Energy."
Click!
The wooden door was pushed open and Renji walked onto the podium.
Looking at the three people in the room, he finally clarified exactly where the current timeline was: Satoru had not yet learned Reverse Cursed Technique to become the strongest, but he estimated it wasn't too long before the mission to escort the Star Plasma Vessel, Amanai Riko.
"A kid?" Satoru pushed up the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose.
"I'm the newcomer, Okkotsu Renji. Please take care of me." Renji took the initiative to greet them.
"Hello, I'm Geto Suguru. The girl over there is Ieiri Shoko, and this guy is Gojo Satoru." Suguru walked up to Renji and gently shook his hand.
Then, Suguru frowned and muttered to himself, "Nothing unusual? Can a pure constitution really store such a massive amount of Cursed Energy?"
"Cough, cough." Yaga Masamichi gave a dry cough and then patted Renji's shoulder.
"None of you should look down on Renji. He's someone who survived a Special Grade Cursed Spirit. Furthermore, his talent in Jujutsu is not inferior to yours in the slightest, Satoru."
Yaga Masamichi took a deep breath, clearly still a bit upset at the thought of Satoru spiking his water with laxatives.
