That’s what makes it so damn beautiful

"Look… the disappointment of the Zenin Clan."

"Stay away from her, don't be like Maki. You will end up becoming useless like her."

"She really disgusts me… Can't she just die somewhere? Her very presence is a stain on our family. First Toji and now her, is our clan cursed or something?"

Her face didn't hold any particular expression as she silently stared at the pond in which fish swam as the voices of people entered her ears.

Her black hair was extended till her shoulders, a small face, and big golden eyes.

She wore a simple white yukata with a black hakama.

From her physique, one could tell that this kid was around 5-4 years old.

For a kid like her to hear such harsh words from everyone within her clan, it was already a miracle she didn't close herself in her room and refused to come out.

But such was the reality of Sorcerer Families.

If you are born average, your fate is already sealed and you would be treated like trash by not only everyone in the clan but even your parents and siblings would look at you with pure disgust in their eyes.

For Maki Zenin, who was born without any cursed energy, she was treated even lower than trash—her very existence was loathed by the people in the clan.

For people like her, her only fate was to become a servant and follow the orders of the clan's more talented people.

The only person she really cared for was her twin sister, Mai Zenin.

"As long as you can find someone worse than you, you can feel good about yourself huh…" She bit her lips, trying her best to not cry.

She can't cry.

She can't let herself be looked down on.

If she cries, that means she has given up, she has lost—everyone will look down on her even more, that's why she can't cry.

She can't—

"Sniff… Sniff…" Her small voice was choked within her throat as she tried her best to make sure no one hears it, burning her face into her small knees, hiding her tear-stained face.

She hated it.

She hated her own weakness.

She hated people looking down on her, calling her trash, and making disgusting faces staring at her.

But she can't do anything about it, right?

After all, she was only 4 years old—what can a four years old do against the people of her clan but listen to their disgusts towards her?

[The world has heard your desire. Post your quest and the world will send its representative to fulfill it.]

Confusion covered her face as she stared at the line of text appearing in front of her.

She was too surprised to even get scared of the sudden appearance of the screen, making her blankly stare at the screen as tears kept falling from her eyes.

Not understanding what it was, a silence fell with Maki staring into the void not saying anything particularly.

After what feels like minutes, she softly said.

"I want to become strong to prove everyone wrong."

One might think she has gone mad, saying stuff openly in the air, but the line of text that changed told her that it heard her wish.

[The quest has been posted! Soon, the Son of Worlds will come to complete the wish.]

"You go boom bha and then bham! It should work that way."

"... I see…" Noah nodded as if he understood the meaning of the universe with his eyes closed.

"... You understood what she said?" Geto asked with a weird gaze, staring at Noah and Shoko.

"To tell you the truth…" Noah looked towards Geto, his eyes holding the seriousness never seen before as he said. "I understood nothing."

Staring at Noah's face, Geto sighed before looking outside of the window, staring at the sight of Jujutsu High.

It already has been a month since Noah came to this world.

Apparently, the time between this world and his main world (DxD) has been adjusted in such a way so no matter how much time he spends in another world, it would only be one day in his main world.

So he didn't have to worry about staying for so long.

Though the main reason was he was injured and even with Reversed Cursed Technique, it took him at least a month to fully get himself healed.

Or at least that was his plan at first, but then knowing that he has this free time in this world, he decided to learn something useful while he was there.

Of course, he didn't plan on staying here for long or he might age to the point where when he goes back, people might get shocked to see his appearance.

After all, till now, he is an "ordinary human" with an ordinary life span… at least that is what he thinks.

Imagining vanishing for a day and coming back as a middle-aged man…

'Sounds quite fun, to be honest…. I really want to see the reaction of the girls now…'

Anyway, this month, the only technique he learned was Curtain.

Geto and Gojo already knew that he used some kind of energy completely different from Cursed Energy, but they made sure to keep a tight lip over this information.

Both of them knew that Higher-ups would definitely announce his execution by giving some absurd reason, just so they can do experiments on him.

It was nothing new.

Despite no one being afraid of the higher-ups, neither Geto, Gojo nor Noah, they still didn't feel like going through the trouble.

It wasn't worth it.

That's why Noah had to learn the Curtain secretly.

It was the most basic technique of sorcerers, and it didn't take Noah much time to learn it either.

'Thankfully I don't need to implement a completely new set of rules for a technique to work… as long as I can flow my mana the same way as described in the technique, it still gives me the required result.'

That's why, despite not having any cursed energy, it wasn't hard for Noah to learn cursed techniques if he spent enough time learning them.

The only problem was, he didn't have time.

So the most he could do was learn Barrier Techniques.

In the end, he had asked Geto and Gojo to get him the fundamental knowledge of Barrier Techniques so he could learn them whenever he had time.

'But even Gojo and Geto can't get all the techniques… Like I can't learn Inherited Techniques, which is quite sad… I thought I could learn Limitless somehow…'

Of course, he knew, unless he had superb mastery over Spatial Laws, learning Limitless or Infinity might be impossible.

He wondered if he got a mission to Strike the Blood or Arifureta, it would be good.

Both worlds provided him an opportunity to get wai—learn Spatial Laws.

'Especially Arifureta… Yukari's power to Manipulate Boundaries is present there…'

Space Magic in Arifureta allowed one to "interfere with boundaries", Noah always felt that people in that world really wasted the potential of that magic, and not only that, he felt like they wasted pretty much every Age of God's Magic.

After all, each magic interfered with a certain concept, but the most they could do with it was basic stuff like Teleportation, creating hybrid monsters, making some gravity fall, and stuff.

[Maki Zenin of the Zenin Clan from the world Jujutsu Kaisen has posted a quest!]

[Quest: Journey to strongest]

[Information: She wants to become strong to prove everyone wrong, do something about it.]

[Objective: Make her strong enough to stand as the strongest!]

[Rewards: 1000 SP, Eternal Arms Mastership (Fanfiction Version)]

[Notice: Estimating the time required to complete the quest, the rewards have been greatly increased.]

'What in Mama Raikou's ass… What is with this ambiguous as fuck quest?'

"Make her stand as the strongest", what does that even mean?

After all, was it to make her strong enough to beat Gojo or strong enough to stand as the strongest beside Gojo?

'Also, do the rewards depend on the time required to complete the quest? This might be worth researching.'

Though he was quite surprised that such a quest came since he was already planning to get Maki and Mai from the Zenin Clan.

Since he has come to this world, why would he not help one of his favorite characters?

'Sadly, I can't use Zoldyck siblings anymore… I could have used them to somehow get the twins to get assassination training from the Zoldyck Clan…'

He knew Zoldyck Family would not say yes to his request, that is why he had planned to get the Zoldyck siblings under a Contract to get what he wanted, but them running away pretty much made it impossible for him to get their help.

'Though if Gojo solidifies his status as the strongest, it might work out one way or the other.'

After all, he wasn't asking them to train them in their cursed techniques but only in physical training.

It might have been possible if he got the Zoldyck siblings under contract and Gojo's help.

'But thanks for the quest anyway.' He sincerely gave his thanks to the world. 'That is a fat Tire right there.'

The only problem was, he can't stay for a long time in this world.

The longest he could push was another month, but not more than that.

That's why, he could only pray that the quest would be completed as long as he played the part in her journey to the strongest, otherwise, he can only say goodbye to the quest.

"Where is Satoru?" Noah asked, gaining the attention of Shoko and Geto.

"Hmmm. He was saying something about "going to perfect his Infinity" or something before he vanished. Maybe he is in the training grounds?"

With his finger down her chin, Shoko tilted her head slightly and said.

"You want something from him?" Geto inquired, finding it weird for Noah to suddenly ask about Gojo when he met him just the other day.

"Well… It is nothing important." He said with a slight shrug of his shoulder, his tone relaxed and calm. "I wanted his help in buying some kids from the Zenin Clan."

A silence fell into the hospital room with both Shoko and Geto stopped, staring at Noah with a silent stare before Geto couldn't help but ask.

"... You what?"
