It has already been 6 years since the former highschool delinquent got reincarnated as a girl named Kasumi Miwa.

And despite living a rather normal life thus far, it looks like the world she was reborn in wasn't that simple as it seemed to be.

Lying in her bedroom, the blue haired girl sighed as she pondered about the special dream she had just a week ago.

"Curses, Vengeful Spirits, Cursed Energy and those Jujutsu stuff. At least it isn't that hard to understand."

The things she received in that said dream was like a surplus of information about what Curses were and how to defeat them.

And although it didn't state what they can do, it seems that this world also has people called Jujutsu Sorcerers that combat these monsters.

Not to mention that despite all Humans having Cursed Energy in their bodies, only a select few can actually see these supernatural creatures known as Cursed Spirits.

"I also have a Heavenly Restriction. It looks like God hasn't abandoned me." The girl chuckled.

Indeed, there was also the fact that Kasumi possessed some kind of "binding" called a Heavenly Restriction.

(At least it has more pros than cons, right?) She wondered to herself.

In exchange for having exactly Zero Cursed Energy, Kasumi has gained Superhuman Physical Prowess alongside Inhuman Senses that can allow her to see Cursed Spirits despite not having any Cursed Energy.

"I'm not sure if I can do some of those Jujutsu stuff, but I'll leave them future problems for the future me."

Stretching out her hand, Kasumi smiled.

(So the power I was feeling before wasn't just my imagination? Heavenly Restriction, huh. Guess I'll have a lot to think about.) She thought so.

And with all that said, the young child decided to take a good night sleep.

Despite having 2 irresponsible and unlikable parents in her past life, Kasumi cannot deny that the love she had for her new mother was genuine.

"Happy birthday, sweetheart!"

Her mother, Sakura Miwa, was just a normal cashier that worked in a 3-star restaurant. There was also the fact that the salary she earned was barely enough to even pay for her daughter's schooling fees. But despite the financial problems she was facing, Sakura always placed Kasumi's happiness as her first priority.

Seeing the dark shade under her mother's eyes, the young girl sighed. "Mom, although I like the cake and I really love you, I think you should take some days off and just rest your body."

"Hmm! I've very happy that you worry about me sweety, but I'm afraid I can't do that."

"Huh? Why?"

Feeling that her child was genuinely worried about her, Sakura smiled. "I want you to become the best you can be, that's why I have to work and earn some money to send you to a good school."

Kasumi was now 12 years old, and the start of classes for all the 7th Graders was only a month away. The girl's mother knew that Kasumi was not an average child, that's why the woman wants to sent her to a prestigious school were her daughter can blossom into a successful adult.

"You're worrying too much, mom. Just enroll me in a regular highschool and I'll make some money by joining those Varsity Teams." Kasumi stated confidently.

The woman pondered for a while. Yes she knew her daughter was strong, but as a mother, she wondered whether it was right to trouble her child with such a thing.

As if sensing Sakura's inner turmoil, Kasumi chuckled. "I told you, mom. Don't worry cause I'm crazy strong!" She flexed her arms for added effect, causing her mother let out a light laugh.

"I'll think about it."

Hearing the woman's words, Kasumi smiled victoriously.

"I've endured!"

Stretching her body, Kasumi slumped on her bed.

(Learning about ABC's all over again was absolutely boring!) The reason she even studied elementary in the first place, was because her body was still too small to do some big stuff. Not to mention that the girl can't really avoid learning about some kid shit since her mother was always there watching her.

"With my Heavenly Restriction, I probably have something like a maxed out 12 year old body, maybe even stronger."

Ever since Kasumi became aware of those Cursed Spirits that no normal Human could see, she wanted to learn more about the supernatural side of things.

(Besides, I don't really wanna waste this power by just being a "normie".) She thoughtfully added.

And so, as the reward for enduring all those years as a freedomless kid, Kasumi now had a body that was big enough to fight with at least some weak "invisible" monsters.

However, there seem to be a few problems

(Based on the special information I have been blessed with, Curses can be found in places with "bad history". It might be easy to find them but...) The girl sighed. "... I don't have any Cursed Weapon to kill them!"

How could she forget, Kasumi had Zero Cursed Energy. And it just so happens that these Curses cannot be killed without Cursed Energy. In short, she needed a Cursed Weapon, a tool that was already imbued with Cursed Energy, if she wanted to kill them.

Remembering all this, the girl groaned in annoyance. "Ah, shit!"

She had no choice anymore.

Kasumi was planning to hunt some Curses at night when her mother was asleep. However, since she had no available method to damage those Cursed Spirits, much less scratch them, Kasumi needed to wait at least a year or 2 in order for her body to grow and look more like a teenager, not like a child.

And when that time comes, she could venture deeper into the supernatural world and maybe find someone who sells Cursed Weapons.

And if she were fortunate enough, Kasumi might even be able to encounter a person who could make those said weapons.

There was a moment of silence before the girl let out a snicker. "It's probably the first and the last time I'll ever want to reach puberty this fast." She smiled.

And so, Kasumi decided to at least do some home or stretching exercises that might help her body grow faster.

"What a pain." She sighed.
