Cursed to Infinity Chapter 1
🕑 Added 2024-01-24 21:28:00 +0000 UTC"This is a universe that should be fed to that sentient hungry Lethal Company Omniverse." I said bluntly with my sponsor slowly nodding as he went over a modified Cyoa that held the perks that I would be taking into this coming world. All the while I was thankfully much calmer after giving some time to come to terms after dying in a house fire.
"Well... You can blame Tengen for how ramped up the world is. When she was killed by the Gun Devil during it's arrival on Earth she in her panic when the Gun Devil broke through her barriers in Japan basically went off like a nuke and that explosion tore through that earth's natural spatial barriers leading to Hell. Too be basically permanently open leading to devils and demons of the seven sins rushing out into the world.
Looking at the world information I still had some major questions like. "Ok, I get the whole Curses due to it being a JJK and Chainsaw Man crossover with demons being a thing with hell certainly being a thing... But why the hell are there dragons flying around, why the hell is Australia infested with Titans from Attack on Titan, and what the fuck is with the Shifters???"
My sponsor gave me a long look before taking a deep breath and speaking slowly and calmly with utter seriousness in his voice. "The shifters are a personal project of mine... Basically, they are the Flood from Halo but instead of stealing bodies. They are semen demons that will take on the form of beautiful women that will take men's cum, and then they will split themselves in half with the new half having the powers of the person they fucked as well as their previous bodies' powers but they can only do this every once in a while. Though they can be tamed and will instead ingest the cum to become stronger."
There was a pause and then I literally facepalmed and as my sponsor chuckled I used my feet to silently and stealthily take off my shoes and then as he began to explain how he wanted to use my reincarnation world as a testing ground to see how these Shifters worked he was cut off and his face went flat as my snappily kicked off shoe hovered in front of his face.
"Well, that was just rude... But I see. I may have been a bit too zealous. Anyway! So yes the dragons are a product of the world's fear of dragons as the strongest monster coming together with cursed energy and the Dragon Devil fucking a woman which quickly gave birth to a race of various forms of dragons that now freely fly the world burning, pillaging, and sometimes when they find interesting people, curses, or sorcerer's they do the deed with them."
And without missing a beat my sponsor continued on as I continued to look through the world information for other shit to bring up so I didn't go into this world blind.
"Ok so what about the animals?" I asked with my eyebrows being raised as the dragons I got but what about the animals and my sponsor actually sighed with him saying sadly.
"Due to Tengen blowing up the world's natural barriers before I could fix them ever so slightly for your insertion so some eldritch entity doesn't come just vore your world and universe. The endless twisting energies of hell, condensed cursed energy from Japan, and of course, just the natural medium of spiritual energy flooded the world meaning that damn near every living thing bigger than a mouse can use cursed/spiritual energy." He explained.
So that meant that literally every human being had some kind of level of spiritual power or talent with it. Though... Let's be honest how many people would actually work themselves to the bones to actually train such powers and fight curses, demons, and devils?
If a hundred percent of a population of a thousand had the ability to fight. Less than thirty percent would actually fight. And out of that thirty percent or three hundred remaining. Only twenty percent of that three hundred would have any talent in actually doing battle along with having the killer instinct.
And finally out of all those percentages... How many of those people would have a combat capable cursed technique or otherwise have the resources to train to a sufficient level.
Finally, though my sponsor spoke. "In any case. As for the Titans... Yeah, remember that whole eldritch bullshit leaking into the world before I fixed this universe a bit? Yeah an AOT universe slid past this one. Which was actually going to get fed to that Lethal Company universe and Ymir Fritz, who was hanging out in the spiritual wide side of the AOT universe on the far edges of it, got slammed into the world."
I raised an eyebrow as I remembered the dull-eyed busty goddess who could create titans and I wondered... No, I knew she was powerful and woe be to anyone who tried to mess with her if she wasn't the broken shell she was previously during her enslavement of the Royal Family.
So that would explain why Australia was overrun with Titans of all things.
Either way, I looked through the CYOA one last time and asked with some interest. "Sooo like am I supposed to find my own cursed technique or something?"
My sponsor's face twitched before he actually burst into laughter before waving his hand back and forth as he responded happily. "Oh, dear heavens no. Your soul is aligned with the concepts of family and the chalice, so any curse technique you naturally create would be supportive and we can't exactly have that be your main way of defending yourself."
His face became wry as he shook his head and said with an actual shudder escaping him. "I also really wouldn't want to be known to be on that same level of as that one dumbass Jake who sent another with the power of Fairy Tale magic and the power of friendship to a Prehistoric style Xianxia cultivation world..."
"No... I always thought that the Inumaki's Cursed Speech technique was kinda ass. So let's make the world think you are the Satoru Gojo of the Inumaki clan." My sponsor spoke as he conjured up some kind of golden glowing droplet that I knew was blood and I shuddered as a draconic roar hit my ears making my vision darken as the golden drop of blood was shot into me and I gasped.
As in the depths of my mind I heard a guttural draconic growl within my soul hissing out. "Dovahkiin."
And I looked at my sponsor who actually blinked in surprise with a smile crossing his face and he said happily. "Wow... You became a dragonborn very easily. Most Jakes who go down that path typically get knocked out as their soul and body get remade... But you don't even feel it? Well, might as well help you out a bit more then." He then flicked his fingers and a small blue light went from his finger to my head and I instantly realized what he did.
As he just gave me a basic mental download of the Draconic language of the Elder Scrolls Universe. And the weight of the language and its meaning was too much for my brand new Dovahkiin soul and body as I felt my mind heating up and my vision darkening.
"Whelp while he is still unconscious he won't mind if I help him out for a price for these items he wanted in the Cyoa." Dimly I heard him speaking and lastly, a thought from him touched my mind as he basically conveyed. 'Hey dumbass, you got a spatial bag to hold the Endless Plate, and the Inverted Spear of Heaven you wanted... So uh yeah spatial bag for your goodies, have fun."
-
When I awoke it was due to the sound of a loud bird screeching out making my eyes fly open and it was a good thing too. As the moment I awoke, I heard a loud thudding noise.
Landing but a few feet away from me was an oversized raven of some kind that looked like it was closer in size to a great eagle or something but seeing me quickly sitting up the raven cawed at me loudly.
And... Honestly, I could see the disappointment in the intelligent Raven's eyes as it realized I wasn't asleep and wasn't easy prey anymore.
'Yeah... That isn't a normal raven.' I thought as I sat up with a grunt of effort as my head was still pounding from having the language of the Dove inserted into my Joor Hah.
"Ah, shit... I am even thinking in a foreign language." I muttered holding my head as I unsteadily stood up with the massive raven giving one last caw of disdain and took off into the air allowing me to truthfully take in my surroundings.
And as I took in my surroundings I quickly realized I was in Japan as I registered the writing of the buildings outside the park I woke up in. Even better... I could actually read the Japanese as though it was my native language!
'Yay for competent reincarnation I guess.' I thought as I took in my surroundings and I realized that the area I was in, was seemingly abandoned with a lot of overgrown trees, bushes, and other things. And as I paid more attention, I could tell that although nothing was like violently destroyed.
There was no mistaking how everything was abandoned... And worse of all. For all that I was seemingly inside of a city and I could see a long line of buildings surrounding me in all directions as I entered the main road... It was utterly silent. No cars, no dogs barking, no buzz of thousands of voices carrying throughout the city.
Utterly nothing beyond the sounds of birds, crickets and other bits of wildlife making noise.
'But the street lights are working?' I thought looking up at the light with some consternation as I wondered where the hell I should be going and I cursed under my breath {Ruth!} I cursed with a purple flood of energy shooting in front of me making me stagger slightly as a wave of energy left my form and I realized I put too much intent into my word of word that was pure rage/and to curse others with that rage.
'Ok... Don't speak the dragon words with too much intent or things will-' My thoughts were cut off as a weird noise rang out like a high-pitched giggle coming from underwater and then with a loud crashing noise one of the nearby windows into one of the shops shattered!
And from the shattered window came a monster! It was obviously a curse as it's form was a horrid abomination of miss mashed eyes across it's form of a slug with many too small of limbs propelling it on the ground.
My hand went to my spatial bag as I recalled that my sponsor had stuck the Inverted Spear of Heaven or the weapon that Toji used to fuck up Satoru Gojo. And even as I pulled out the blade with two points I breathed deep and I felt utterly exhilarated as heat bloomed in my chest.
As I delved deep in the words of the Dov and I knew the word that I knew resonated with my soul perfectly. As I died in flames, I died as my apartment burned down around around me and I knew what the word for flames meant in its entirety better than any Greybeard would.
{Yor Toor!} I roared with my voice echoing into the distance and in an instant I created a fire inferno as I knew the words for fire and inferno better than I would probably know any other words other than Dinok, my death.
And even more oddly enough even though I used two words of power although my throat felt some strain from the power of saying the words of power. The actual use of two words of power used less power and energy then my previous use of the word of Rage.
The curse ever so briefly screamed as I breathed in after speaking the words of power and then it visibly broke down into ashes and I could feel my will over the flames so I mentally pushed the flames to quickly subside so I didn't catch any of the surrounding buildings on fire.
'A curse not far from where I awakened? What the hell dude?' I frowned mentally giving a finger to my sponsor as I sighed and then looking at the surrounding signs I kinda figured out where I was. "Ok... So where the hell is Muko in Japan?" I asked myself and honestly, I had no fucking clue. It's not like I knew every major city in Japan even if I really liked anime in my previous life.
As I also imagine people not from the US could name even ten state capitals.
But regardless I sighed and I kept walking down the road and I realized that unless my sponsor was a total asshole. The curses and the spiritual nonsense was the norm everywhere. As, as I continued walking I saw a trio of oversized squirrels bigger than a medium-sized dog sitting atop a building roof and were noisily eating some kind of fruit while watching me as I walked by.
Thankfully the squirrels didn't attack me or anything... But I knew they were omnivores like humans were so god knows if they were looking at me hungrily.
After a good long walk, I froze as I heard something in the distance and it took me a couple of moments to realize it was distant gunshots! Which meant people were in that direction!
'Now the question is. Do I run towards the gunshots looking for people... Or do I run away from the gunshots as who knows what the hell they are shooting?' I thought before I put aside my worries and ran in the direction of the gun shots to look for people.
But not long after I started running I realized a rather embarrassing fact. Just because I was made into a Dragonborn, didn't mean besides my body being healed up to a phenomenal state after my reincarnation. I could only run a good half mile before I ran out of breath. Which meant that I wasn't some kind of physical monster like the rest of the punch wizards here in JJK.
The gunshots grew in volume as I drew closer along with the sounds of concrete and metal being smashed into and I heard a male cry out before several more gunshots rang out and then a final huge metallic crashing noise as I drew closer and as I came around the corner of a subdivision as this was taking place in a residential area.
I saw my first people since reincarnating. There was a group of men in blue-collar outfits with hard hats and such working to load up stuff into some semi trucks and that was interesting and all but I was more focused on the people who just finished killing a massive racoon the size of a polar bear.
With the metal crashing noises seemingly being one of the smaller semi trucks having their metal cargo hold in the back being partially crushed.
"Oh?" One of the more interesting people remarked seeing me comer over, and I noticed that they were all wearing either suits or some kind of higher-end blazer that had large buttons securing the outfit together.
"Hmm you are not a devil or a fiend... Are you a tourist who got lost outside the walls or something?" The man asked and taking in his appearance more I saw that his eyes were almost completely closed and had longer hair with two strands of his hair hanging on the sides of his face with thin ropes tied into the strains of black hair.
I took a moment to catch my breath and then answered truthfully. "No... Yes I don't know I got teleported here and I honestly don't know what the hell is going on!"
The young adult smiled and held up his hands as though to say 'Peace' but another one his partners spoke up and I swear she looked familiar as she had long blue hair and darker blue eyes. "Kamo, we gotta keep moving. Muta is reporting a wave of enhanced Huntsman Spiders moving in our direction from the noise we made."
The man grimaced and besides the blue-haired girl I noticed the other girl who looked rather normal with very dark green hair who then added on. "Yeahhh we aren't good for hordes,so lets finish this up people!" She shouted at the end and then it hit me.
These guys were the students from the Kyoto branch of Jujutsu Tech! And this Kamo, was Noritoshi Kamo and I recognized the blue-haired girl as Kasumi Miwa the girl who was famous for failing at everything basically. But the last girl... I honestly couldn't recall someone with dark green hair and such a severe face.
Kamo made a grunt of disapproval to the green-haired girl's orders for the workers to pack it all in as he hissed under his breath. "We have been off quota for the last week... The higher-ups aren't going to be happy if we fail to collect enough food again."
I couldn't help but interject as I raised my hand and asked. "Uhmm I have a wide area technique? I can cojure a lot of flames if that can help?"
The three Jujutsu sorcerers looked at me with some interest and then the darker green-haired girl leaned in to look me in the eyes as she seemingly took in my worth and then shrugged. "Well if he wants to try to block off a wave of like fifty spiders with each weighing an even three hundred kilos... Let him do it. I will be in the trucks ready to peel off."
My lips twitched at the candid way she said she would leave me behind but the man patted me on my shoulder with him taking his bow from his back with his free hand as he said. "Worry not friend. In the worst case, I can tell you don't have that great of a physique so I will carry you if we need to make a quick getaway."
'Oh joy... Gotta love the confidence boosters here.' I thought wryly before nodding and following Kamo away from the trucks towards where the spiders where coming from and Kamo asked me with some curiosity.
"So you said you got teleported here... Any idea who or what teleported you? And where are you from?" He asked easily trying to keep me calm probably but after dying, killing a curse already, and already seeing proof of the crazy wildlife? I was well past calm and was in a functional shocked state.
"No, no idea who or what teleported me as I just went to bed in my apartment back in the US. So uhhh where is everyone?" I asked rather bluntly as I waved my hand around us to the clearly abandoned surrounding houses.
And hearing my ending question Kamo gave me an odd look before blinking and shrugging. "Uhh, the people all pulled back to the walled-in sections of Kyoto that are reinforced with jujutsu barriers and barriers we bartered with some demons to get. You know to keep the animals, curses, other demons, and other terrors from entering our fortified cities?"
I nodded and said wryly. "Yeah... Came from a smaller town not from a super city. By the way my name is Jake Barriss, can I call you Kamo, or do I call you something else?"
His face made an 'Aha!' kind of motion as he nodded and said happily. "Ah, so your town or village. Had a strong sorcerer or something protecting it right? And Kamo is just fine."
I nodded but thankfully before he could ask any more questions I heard it... I heard the sounds of countless heavy feet scratching the pavement, metal, wood, and countless other surfaces as fifty-odd times eight legs loudly ran across the ground in our direction from the distance.
And hearing that Kamo gave me a weak smile before saying. "Alright. It's your time to shine. I will help with my bow though."
The knowledge of having someone acting as a backup did make me feel better or. Or at least if he didn't lie, I still had a way out of here at least.

With the dovakhin thing it kind of put mu earlier thought out the window, but my earlier thought when it said dragons roaming around I was like "well that could be a way to introduce dragon maid and other dragon waifus", but being a dovakihn and taking dragon souls, probably not
