The sumo I did with Miyo paid off. I'm different now. I didn’t know what it was I couldn’t see. Now I see it. I fight Naoya, but... without my glasses, I couldn't see what others could. But thanks to Mai, I’ve gained this body.

Now, even without glasses, I can see curses. I was too content. Because I was finally the same as everyone else. But if it were that man... Toji... he would’ve deflected every one of Naoya’s attacks. Even at this speed. It’s not enough to be the same as everyone else. There are things only I can see. Things only he could see. It's nothing special. Even the air around us has different temperatures and densities.

These “facets” are everywhere. And that one facet...

JUST NEEDS TO BE GRASPED!!

I drive my fist into Naoya — the man turned cursed spirit. He casts his Domain Expansion. Daido and Miyo get caught in it and go down hard. But me? I don’t have cursed energy. So the domain ignores me. It treats me like a rock or a tree — not worth registering. That’s his mistake. I move behind him, stab him through the chest, and tear him apart.

Another fierce human, one who can stand on par with Toji Zenin, is here now.

Me.

I walk over to you, lying there hurt. I give a small smile, crouching down with my hands on my knees.

"You good? We won. Daido and Miyo are down bad too. I’ll patch them up later."

I bend down, slip an arm under your shoulder, and lift you up to carry you.
