3 Cleria

Chapter-3

Like any other day, the young Satoru was lying on the top of his house's roof. Having a sunbath. 

But in honesty, he was just too bored out of his own mind. Since fighting his gramps, he was allowed to leave the compound whenever he wished to. But after going outside a few times, he has grown bored of it. He much rather prefers to binge some movies and anime.

As he had none of those in his past life, he really tried to watch as much as possible and even found a training method during that, not that he'd ever need it. Even in the eyes of his family members, Satoru was an anomaly, someone who broke all of their expectations. At the age of six, when most of them just played on mud, Satoru became a Grade-1 sorcerer; that much nobody would disagree after seeing his feats.

From having the best control of cursed energy and creative use of magic. He'd not lose easily to even a special-grade, unless they used domain expansion at the get go. That too wouldn't kill him with certainty as he just learned simple domain and Rakka no Jō(Falling blossom emotion) from his gramps who was in a good mood to teach him that.

"Arghhh~ why am I so bored?" He wondered out loud as he ate the bag of crisps.

"Maybe I should have listened to mom and enrolled in school. That way, I'd at least have something to look forward to." He sat up and made a small ball of water using magic and drank it and vaporised the plastic pack of the chips.

"But school is for kids and I ain't one. Maybe I should enrol in highschool directly, a little bit of mind-control would take care of the annoying problems… or money would too." He jumped down from the 3 story tall house and landed without even a small injury.

But he noticed something suddenly, it was a new feeling for him. This current aura felt more like his, except that it was more… vile than his.

'Let's check it out.'

-Meanwhile-

"I didn't expect to see a devil of all things today, that too a queen of a nobel devil." Hatori said while drinking tea, in front of him was Maria. She just arrived here to request to exorcise a curse. She tried going to the Kamo clan but they didn't accept her request because Kuho was too far away from them.

"I understand the situation you are in. Don't worry, the Gojo clan will definitely take care of the curse in your territory." 

"Thank you." Maria knew some Japanese tradition so she bowed to him.

"It's fine. But pay 10,000,000 yen as advance before you leave."

'Of course' Maria kept smiling on the outside. Not wanting to annoy the leader of a clan. She has seen many noble devils as Cleria's queen, so she's used to being as polite as possible. She ruffled into her hand bag and placed 10 huge stacks of money, each worth 1 million yen.

Hatori looked at one stack to check its worth and nodded. "Consider your request to be done, I'll send a competent sorcerer wi-"

"Gramps, I wanna go." Satoru was spying on their conversation immediately as he entered the room through the window.

"Satoru!" 

"!!"

While Hatori was pissed, Maria was shocked. She didn't expect to see a fallen angel off all things in a sorcerer clan.

'So the rumour was true!' She believed that Gojos were affiliated with fallen angels.

 'This info would be really useful. But I should act like I didn't notice it'

"You brat! You should not barge in like that when I'm having a conversation!" Hatori was about to beat Satoru.

"Hey chill gramps, I was just bored. Why don't you let me handle this mission? I have nothing better to do." Satoru said as he sat on air. "If you don't send me, I won't stop annoying you for the rest of the day."

"Let's see if you can keep speaking like that with my fist on your face!"

"Don't get angry at everything, you're gonna get a stroke." Gojo started walking on air to stay out of Hatori's reach.

"Get down here you brat!"

"I can feel your BP rising."

"You!"

"How about this? I'll think about becoming the next clan leader and you send me on this mission" 

'Who's this brat? And why is THE Hatori really considering an offer like that?' Meanwhile Maria was too confused by what's happening. In the supernatural side of the world, at least the Eastern side, Hatori Gojo is greatly feared for his strengths. His greatest feat of killing the Evil Yokai, Kurama speaks volumes of his strength.

"Hmm… fine. Maria-san, take this brat with you to the curse. He may not look like it, but he's really strong." 

"Yay!"

'Satan..'

...............

-Satoru-

"You have a nice car, Miss Maria!" I said to the devil. We're currently on our way to Kuho, a remote town in Tokyo, this is the first time I'm even hearing something like that. It is supposedly the only hub of devils in Japan.

This woman who's taking me there is supposedly a devil. She looks nothing like how I imagined devils to be. She looks exactly like a normal human who's very attractive. She has a certain charm to her that I can't exactly put my finger around.

"How far away is Kuho exactly from here? Miss?" I asked her.

"About 40 km from here." She replied.

She's not really expressive huh? Well that sucks.

I pulled out my phone and started playing subway surfers, I never really lost even once in this game. 

.

.

.

"Gojo-san, we're here." 

Oh, already? I paused the game again and looked around. Unlike what I expected a remote town to be, Kuho is really advanced. It looks almost just like Sendai.

"Kuoh really is different" This city gave off a… unique vibe than Sendai.

"Please follow me to meet my king, lady Cleria Belial" Saying that she left the car and walked inside the big building in front of me.

How can a lady be a king? Oh I see, Maria's in a peerage!

"Coming" I too left the car and followed behind her while being amazed by the size and architecture of the building. Devils sure are rich.

I went inside an elevator and she clicked on the 32nd floor button. Within seconds, the lift reached that floor and the doors opened. Directly in front of us was a desk and a woman was sitting behind that desk whom I assume to be Cleria Belial.

She was a beautiful woman with grey hair and blue eyes. Not as blue as mine but the normal kind.

"Yo" I greeted her in a cool way. I saw a fellow white-haired guy in a certain anime do this.

She looked at me for a moment before turning back to Maria and asking, "Maria, please explain to me why a fallen angel is here?"

Ah, so they can feel my identity as a fallen angel. Maybe I should conceal my aura?

"He's the sorcerer the Gojo family sent to deal with the curse of my lady."

Hearing that Cleria didn't seem pleased "What are they thinking? We opted for them instead of jujutsu high so that they'd send in actual adults instead of some high schoolers and they sent us a preschooler!?

"Hey lady, I don't go to school." I won't stand here and let my family get defamed.

"That's not the point!" She shouted at me and held the bridge of her nose. "Why is nothing going right for me?"

Does she think I'm a weakling? Is she that strong or is it that she's that unaware?

"You don't know about me do you?" I asked her. It looks like the devils are not as informative as I thought.

"Am I supposed to?" She asked with annoyance evident in her voice. 

"...not really. But I'm strong enough to defeat you and this lady over here." I pointed at Maria.

"Ho? That confident?"

"Try touching me."

"What?"

I extended my hand outright, "Just try it." I kept moving my hand before her. From down here I can even see her breasts slightly

Sigh.. women wear clothes properly.

"...Fine" She reached out and tried to touch it. But her hand never touched mine.

"What?" She tried pushing her hand even harder.

"How? I definitely feel something."

"Neat isn't it? It is an application of my technique, I can decide what can touch me and what can't. So believe me now?" I grinned at her shocked expression.

..............

-3rd Person's POV-

"So believe me now?" Satoru asked Cleria who was shocked at the absurdity of his ability. She just hoped that he was exaggerating his ability. She was already in a dangerous situation as she knew about the king pieces and now she also knows about a fallen-sorcerer with an absurd technique.

"Hmm?" Satoru hummed seeing that she wasn't replying.

"Yes. Sorry for my behaviour moments ago, please come this way I'll show you the curse." 

.

.

.

She took him to the roof of the building they were in and pointed at the road opposite to the road that Gojo and Maria came in. "This is the place the curse was last spotted in, we couldn't see it but the damages stop here."

Satroru looked at the sky with a rare solemn expression and said, "It's here alright. But it's not an immature curse anymore. It's evolving."

While Cleria couldn't see shit, Satoru could. He saw the large yellow cursed womb and the disgusting pink grotusque cursed inside the womb floating in the air. He stepped forward and jumped on the steel railing of the roof and looked down. He spotted that the whole area was being evacuated and all the humans looked like they were in a dazed state.

"Wide-range mind-control magic to a large number of targets… impressive." He commented. To which Cleria just wondered why would a kid know of that. From Maria's info, the Gojo clan like many other sorcerer clans neither affiliated itself with any of the other prominent factions nor formed any enmity with them. So she is seriously questioning if Satoru was just a random fallen son or a big figure's son.

"So how dangerous is the curse?" She asked him.

"In its current state? It's less dangerous than a bulldog."

"Then what are you waiting for, just kill it."

"It's not that easy, woman. Like any living organism on this world, curses also evolve due to the influence of Gaia, so unless I use positive energy like holy magic or reversed cursed energy anything that I do will just make the curse stronger."

"Fine then. How strong will it be after its evolution?"

"Hmm… probably special-grade."

"Special-grade curse!? Aren't you just a first-grade sorcerer? How will you handle it?"

"It would be tough if it had a domain expansion or some absurd cursed technique…"

"So you'll lose?" She asked, getting concerned to which Satoru just grinned.

"Nah, I'd win." He smirked. For some strange reason, he felt like the line really resonated with him.

The air in the shopping district of Koho Town was thick and chilly, all the humans in the vicinity had just been evacuated and Cleria's peerage members left the place too. Currently the only ones who are in the radius of 400 m around the cursed womb are Satoru, Cleria and Maria.

"When will the process end?" Cleria asked for the third time in just 2 minutes. She was getting really nervous.

"If you want to end it quicker I can send some of my cursed energy." Satoru was getting annoyed.

"No. I'll wait."

Her waiting was rewarded as the womb started shrinking along with the curse inside it.

"It's starting." Satoru said and took a pair of glasses from his jacket's pockets and gave them to Cleria and Maria.

"Wear those, you'll be able to see curses." Saying that Satoru dived straight down with and extended his wings.

With a flap he flew higher and stood right in front of the curse. It was a comical sight as Satoru, who was barely over a metre tall was standing in front of a grotesque being which had a pale white body and 3 pairs of arms and a human head.

"Wa?" The curse looked confused at the sight of Satoru in front of it who was smiling.

"Happy first birthday dude." He clapped.

*Clap*

*Clap*

"Too bad it's your last one too." Before the curse even had time to react he punched the curse hard, sending it flying into a building breaking through the glasses and walls. He was using both mana and cursed energy to enhance his body, so his already stronger than average fallen-angel body is now even stronger.

*Shatte- BOOM*

But the curse shot out of the same building, jumping directly from there and straight to Satoru showing its physical powers. 

*BOOM!* The building behind Satoru cracked due to the punch's shockwave which wasn't blocked by Satoru's infinity unlike the punch.

The curse tried punching him again but to his surprise, Satoru wasn't even there.

*Swoosh*

"Did you get him?" The curse was surprised to see Satoru standing right on top of its own arm.

"One, Two…" He gripped its head.

"Three!"

And ripped it off, And proceeded to smack the curse with its own head, he ripped his arm and smacked the curse again sending it flying back to the ground. All this time he was the one lifting the curse.

"For a special-grade you sure are weak.." He dropped on the ground, looking at the curse slowly healing its head. It's hand was already fully healed.

"Can't believe my gramps and you are in the same category."

"GIAAA!" The curse extended all of its arms and fired a series of beams from each of its hands.

*BOOM!*

The beams caused a huge explosion and the whole place was filled with smoke and debris. The curse waited for the smoke to clear and expected to see him injured or even dead. But to its despair there were no signs of Satoru.

"What is this now? DBZ?" Unlike before Satoru was standing near the curse, looking at the destruction the curse caused and wished good luck for Cleria and her peerage who will have to repair this mess.

"And falling for the same trick? You really are immature." He shook his head. The curse tried to punch Satoru again, but he caught both of its fists with each of his hands and the remaining hands didn't get past his infinity.

"Even you are bound to miss your hands right?" He ripped out both of its hands and spin-kicked the curse into another building.

He looked at the damage they were causing 'Guess it's time to finish this'

'Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue- Convergence' He extended his hand and created a strong centre of gravity just before the place where the curse was punched into.

*Shatter* *Cracks*

The glasses, walls and even the road near his 'blue' all started to rip off and move towards his 'convergence' and so did the curse.

"GAAAA!" The curse shouted as it was pulled into the blue, but it could do nothing as it was helplessly pulled into the blue, being deformed under the immense pulling force and crushed by the rebels.

*CRUNCH!* The curse wasn't tough enough to handle the pressure and got crunched like a grapefruit.

"And.. done." Satoru stopped his 'blue', making all the rebels fall down to the ground and there was no trace of the cursed spirit remaining except the purple blood which was evaporating into steam.

"Hey ladies, I'm done here!" He said while clapping the dust off his hands, though there were no dust on his hands.

All this time Cleria and Maria were witnessing the full fight. They were shell-shocked as the physical feats of Satoru were very impressive, he was easily able to punch something that big and send it flying. He didn't look like he was giving it his all too. 

In their life they have seen more powerful feats than what Satoru did, but none of them was done by a six year old boy.

'The council should know more about him more' Cleria decided to run an investigation on him. From what she's seen and from how little she knew about him. She can't imagine a way to get past his 'barrier'. She saw how even a physically powerful curse like that wasn't able to even touch him. 

'I should research more about his power more to make 'worthless' affect him.'

But for now, she was relieved that the curse was no more.

"Thanks for your service Gojo-san." She flew to the ground and winced at all the damage the fight caused. 'Was that even a fight? It looked like a one sided beatdown.'

"Don't mind it" Satoru waved his hand nonchalantly. "The curse was the bare minimum of a special-grade. It couldn't do shit and didn't even use its technique more than once."

"It was impressive. I sincerely thank you for your service" She bowed slightly, to make her look like a polite woman. She regretted behaving like a bitch to him before.

"Gee… thanks." Satoru was slightly flustered. He could see her breast while she was bending too much more than necessary. He was a virgin in his past life, after all by the time he became a teenager all humans except his died.

"Can we talk in my office? My peerage will start repairing this place you see."

"Yeah I don't mind."

......

I was planning to make the fight a cliff hanger but decided not to.
