Natsuki Subaru was completely stunned as he looked at the words spoken by his other self.
Rem died?
Ram wanted to kill him?
'Is this really the sa world as mine?'
[Jealous Witch's Object of Escape: Rem... how did she die?]
[Coin Decides Your Life or Death: I don't know. She went to the village the day before, and the next morning she was dead.]
[Jealous Witch's Object of Escape: I know! It's ili! It's ili!]
[Coin Decides Your Life or Death: ili?]
[Jealous Witch's Object of Escape: She's a little girl with purple hair, carrying a puppy—it's actually a Witchbeast! If you get bitten, you'll be cursed!]
Natsuki Subaru finally understood what the other's situation was.
In the worldline he inhabited, he had gone to the village with Rem, got bitten by a Witchbeast which triggered Return by Death, and then, relying on Yuji Itadori's help, successfully overca the crisis.
In the worldline the other self experienced, for so reason, Rem had gone to the village alone.
She died in the place of the other Natsuki Subaru.
This was the true point of divergence between Natsuki Subaru and his other self.
In all likelihood, this was also the starting point of a series of tragedies.
[Coin Decides Your Life or Death: Purple.]
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: To think such a thing would happen...]
Himl could also sense the conversation turning heavy, and his expression beca solemn.
[Jujutsu Physical Education Student: So what happened after?]
[Coin Decides Your Life or Death: Nothing special happened after. I managed to survive by chance, and then I began living my own life.]
[Jealous Witch's Object of Escape: Are you... doing okay now? Looking at your appearance, it doesn't seem very good.]
[Coin Decides Your Life or Death: It's fine.]
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: What's the deal with your nickna?]
Sato Kazuma inquired.
Everyone's nickna reflected their state of mind or thoughts to so extent.
What was the aning behind the new mber's 'Coin Decides Your Life or Death'?
It felt like it had absolutely nothing to do with the current Natsuki Subaru.
[Coin Decides Your Life or Death: It's probably just because when I encounter difficult choices in my daily life, I use a coin to solve them.]
Natsuki Subaru—not the original Natsuki Subaru in the group chat—was currently sitting upon a throne.
His eyes were hollow, as if devoid of all emotion.
He closed the Chat Group, and his dull eyes looked forward.
"Where were we, Mr. Sigrum?"
His voice was raspy, yet filled with an undeniable pressure.
The man nad Sigrum knelt on the ground. Though old enough to be the other's grandfather, his face was etched with fear and respect.
"Purge King—"
Sigrum said with a trembling voice.
The Natsuki Subaru of this tiline had accumulated a vast amount of wealth in a short period, creating a society nad Pleiades, an organization that could rival nations.
A terrorist organization.
Anyone who defied him, along with their friends, relatives, and associates, would be driven to a dead end.
The world had long since forgotten his na, referring to him only by that alias.
Purge King.
Sigrum cautiously cast his gaze to the side.
The interior was filled with luxurious and dazzling decorations and paintings, a level of opulence that was hard to imagine.
Directly in front of him, the throne belonging to the Purge King was even more magnificent. Before him stood rows of well-trained soldiers; hiring them would cost a fortune.
Right now, what the Purge King lacked least was money.
A person stood on either side of the Purge King. One was dressed as a samurai, looking nonchalant with a smile on his face, as if anticipating sothing; the other was a demi-human with a face no different from a wolf, but wearing ninja attire.
In this world, the strongest person was undoubtedly Reinhard.
Below Reinhard, various nations also had their own absolute powerhouses.
Blue Lightning, Cecilus.
The Praiser, Halibel.
These two were currently the Purge King's left and right hands.
Sigrum had brought countless gold and silver treasures to the Purge King, desperate to obtain the protection of the Pleiades.
As long as one defied the other, it was a dead end—the only thing he could do now was try his best to please him.
After expressing his sincerity, Sigrum was incredibly nervous, but his mood soon relaxed significantly because he felt the Purge King's speech was very normal, even friendly.
The cooperation was quickly finalized, and the weight in Sigrum's heart quietly lifted.
"Then, please take care of us from now on, Lord Purge King!"
A smile was on his face.
But at that mont, Sigrum heard a sound.
It was the sound of a coin being tossed and then landing.
"It's tails."
Before he could understand the Purge King's words, the floor seed to rise rapidly while spinning.
It was his head, rolling onto the ground.
The one who acted was the Praiser, Halibel. The movent was clean and swift; everything happened in less than a second.
Without any reason, and without harboring any emotion, the Purge King used a coin to decide the life or death of others.
Tens of thousands—perhaps even more—people had been erased by the Purge King in this manner.
However, after seeing the corpse before him, the Purge King covered his mouth, an expression of discomfort on his face.
Even though he had seen countless corpses, the Purge King still couldn't adapt to the process of killing.
He was a contradictory existence.
Ever since he was almost killed by Ram, the Purge King's mind had gradually drifted toward another extre. In his eyes, almost all things and people had lost their color.
The people who retained their color were few and far between.
"A Chat Group, huh..."
While his subordinates handled the corpse, the Purge King slightly raised his chin, muttering to himself,
"If it's another world, can color be found there..."
He shook his head, then looked forward again, saying in a commanding tone,
"Next."
On the other side, a heated discussion about the Purge King had broken out in the group.
[Jujutsu Physical Education Student: Subaru, this other you is too miserable...]
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: It really is a bit miserable...]
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: The feeling of being misunderstood is definitely hard to bear.]
Natsuki Subaru looked at his other self's nickna and fell into thought.
His future self looked to be in a very bad state.
Was it all because of that divergence point?
Because of Yuji Itadori's intervention, he had successfully survived the crisis brought by the Witchbeasts.
If it weren't for Yuji Itadori, would he have headed toward a different future?
Natsuki Subaru didn't know.
And for so reason, Natsuki Subaru felt a chilling darkness from the eyes of his other self.
Although the other party hadn't said anything, Natsuki Subaru felt i i within his heart that the other had probably done things beyond his imagination.
But fortunately, he shouldn't end up on that path.
The current Natsuki Subaru was about to embark on a brand new road.
[Jealous Witch's Object of Escape: Coin Decides Your Life or Death, um, are you still there?]
Natsuki Subaru didn't quite know how to address his other self.
However, the other party did not reply.
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: Perhaps the other Subaru is busy. After all, looking at him, he seems to be laboring over many things.]
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: Then let's talk about our own business first. Group Leader, didn't you say earlier that you needed to find Aqua for sothing? This girl is awake now! Is it convenient for you to co over?]
[Unsurrounded One: Yeah, then I'll trouble you. I'll transfer the Points to you.]
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: Ah, Group Leader, no need! We're bros!]
Sato Kazuma actually desperately wanted Yuji Itadori to visit his world again in his heart.
Yuji Itadori had helped him quite a bit before.
Moreover, gumin and Darkness were now clamoring every day to et Yuji Itadori.
gumin wanted Yuji Itadori to help her refine her Explosion Magic.
And Darkness simply wanted to go see Yuji Itadori.
She had heard that besides Explosion Magic, Yuji Itadori also knew a Slashing Attack type magic.
Darkness very much wanted to personally experience how Yuji Itadori's magic felt when it hit her body.
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: But Group Leader, I have to give a warning first. When you ca last ti, Darkness wasn't in our team yet. This girl is soone whose brain is quite abnormal!]
[Unsurrounded One: Haha, it should be fine.]
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: I just wanted to let the Group Leader have so psychological preparation first... I'm sending the invitation now.]
[Unsurrounded One: Okay.]
Soon, Sato Kazuma sent the invitation to Yuji Itadori, and the latter imdiately arrived in the other's world.
Yuji Itadori looked around and found himself near their previous residence in this world.
"Group Leader, long ti no see!"
Sato Kazuma greeted Yuji Itadori very enthusiastically.
"Long ti no see."
"Since gumin and Darkness don't know about the group chat yet, I said I was coming out to pick you up."
Sato Kazuma said with a smile.
He hadn't chosen to reveal the existence of the Chat Group for no particularly special reason.
It was mainly because Sato Kazuma felt the other two weren't very bright, and explaining it to them would be a huge hassle.
And another reason—
If they knew they could invite Yuji Itadori to this world as long as they had enough points, they would annoy him to death every day.
"Sorry for the trouble."
Yuji Itadori nodded.
"No problem! We're close! I even specifically had the guild prepare quite a lot of delicious food to be delivered!"
After speaking, Sato Kazuma led Yuji Itadori into the house.
"Um, I've brought Senior Itadori—"
"Master!!!!!!"
Before Sato Kazuma could finish, a small figure charged over like a cannonball, knocking him flying.
gumin arrived before Yuji Itadori at her fastest speed, an impatient smile on her face. She stared at Yuji Itadori without blinking, already referring to him as Master.
"Um, um... are you Mr. Itadori?"
Beside gumin was a woman dressed in cloth armor. Even though the clothes wrapped her body tightly, her impressive figure was still clearly visible.
Her pale yellow long hair was tied into a ponytail, and her fair face was set with delicate features. Without a doubt, she was also a beauty.
The mont Yuji Itadori stepped through the door, those erald-like eyes fixed onto him.
Darkness.
"That's right. And you must be Darkness. Nice to et you."
"Ah, Mr. Itadori actually knows my na?"
"Kazuma ntioned you to before."
"Ah? How did Mr. Itadori contact Kazuma?"
There was a hint of surprise in Darkness's eyes. She didn't know about the Chat Group. In her eyes, Yuji Itadori should have been away on so commission and thus not local.
Before Yuji Itadori could speak, gumin nearby spoke first:
"You don't understand, do you, Darkness! My Master is an existence who has mastered Explosion Magic, so he naturally also possesses the forbidden power to connect different space-tis. It's only natural you don't understand, because you've never seen the color of the abyss, and only I know that Master possesses this powerful magic, allowing him to communicate with Kazuma from afar!"
gumin's reasoning was entirely wrong, but her conclusion was remarkably close.
"Sothing like that. I have a... special magic that allows to stay in touch with Kazuma."
Yuji Itadori followed gumin's lead and replied.
"See, this is my Master!"
gumin raised her head proudly.
"As expected of Mr. Itadori! I've also heard many things about you!"
At that mont, a gleam sparkled in Darkness's eyes.
"Heard things about ?"
Yuji Itadori looked at her with so confusion. He shouldn't have done much in this world. Did Sato Kazuma say sothing?
"The commission that left Aqua covered in filthy, slly sli! Mr. Itadori, you were involved in that too, right!"
"The ti gumin was so exhausted she didn't even have the strength to walk! That also has to do with you, Mr. Itadori!"
"It was precisely because I heard about this series of events that I wanted to join this team. It's only today that I finally have the honor of eting you, Mr. Itadori!"
"Um... yes, that was ."
Yuji Itadori did not deny it.
"Mr. Itadori, I have sothing I might need your help with! I wonder if it's convenient for you!"
"Please, go ahead. If it's sothing I can do."
"Can you use that Slashing Attack magic on !!"
After speaking, the light in Darkness's eyes seed to grow even brighter, and her body leaned forward slightly.
Yuji Itadori froze for a mont, trying to understand her words.
It wasn't until a few seconds later that, for the first ti in sixty-eight years, he uttered such a bewildered sound.
