It has been two months since Sukuna started living under Satoru's supervision. Despite the higher-ups instructing Satoru to kill Sukuna after he consumes all of his cursed fingers, Sukuna remains indifferent to this fact and continues living his life under Satoru's care.

Satoru provides him with food and shelter at his own home, and even annoys Sukuna occasionally when he is in the mood. However, Satoru is hardly ever home due to being a teacher and going on late-night missions, which Sukuna finds unpleasant. After spending 1000 years doing nothing in the prison realm, Sukuna finds it difficult to cope with Satoru's absence.

Although Sukuna prefers to be alone in his room, he doesn't mind Satoru's attempts to annoy him. However, now that Satoru is barely home, Sukuna is upset and has been waiting for him all night, with his anger increasing with each passing second.
