The moment these words were uttered, they weirdly echoed clearly across the battlefield suppressing all the other noises caused by their clash.
Then, just as these words were heard by all, they were instantly followed by a weird mutation that quickly shrouded the entire battlefield.
With the huge scarlet-colored mirror that stood behind Yuta the center of the mutation, everything around was suddenly covered with a glossy hue.
It was as if everything around was being forcefully turned into a reflective surface—A Mirror.
Moreover, this glossy hue completely ignored all the obstacles it faced and all the attacks that were being thrown all over the place as it kept advancing indomitably, only stopping after it covered the entire battlefield.
Seeing this, Yuta who still maintained his usual indifferent demeanor suddenly raised his right hand in front of him using it to form a certain hand sign.
[Domain - Close]
*BZZZZZZZZ*
*Swish*
The moment this order was given, the open-type domain that Yuta had previously launched suddenly transformed into a closed-type domain.
From an outsider's point of view, it looked as if the glossy hue that had covered the entire battlefield suddenly transformed into a large bloody mouth which then swallowed everyone inside; This included both Sukuna and his shrine, and Yuta and his mirror.
*Crack*
"This is..."
Reacting to the sudden shift in scenery, Sukuna who maintained the same pose and continued his furry of attacks couldn't help but glance around in confusion.
However, this confusion wasn't because of the change of scenery, after all, getting absorbed into a domain wasn't something new, instead, it was more about the cognitive dissonance that he was currently experiencing.
'Huh?'
'Why aren't our domains clashing...'
'It feels as if my domain is the only one being enacted while his domain just turned into a background board.'
'Background board...Could it be...'
'I see, interesting, so it's like a very small world.'
Quickly understanding the situation, a grin couldn't help but appear on Sukuna's face as he got closer to understanding the new power system.
However, while he had a great interest in that, he still didn't forget where he currently was as he quickly turned his attention back to Yuta or more precisely the large Mirror behind him.
Looking at it, Sukuna immediately noticed a mutation which immediately made him vigilant.
Previously, while the mirror stood behind Yuta, it didn't actually reflect anything and instead just acted like some shiny surface.
However, after Yuta closed his domain, a reflection appeared for the first time, and this reflection is that of Sukuna's shrine.
It's just that before Sukuna could fully understand what that was for, Yuta spoke again interrupting his thought process as he intended to end the battle just there and then.
[Multi-Mirrored World]
Following this command, the silver floor below them seemed to turn into liquid as an immense number of mirrors large and small quickly emerged from the floor encircling the two fighters within.
And to make things weirder, each of these mirrors only had the reflection of Sukuna's shrine on them ignoring everything else around.
"Paste many times huh..."
"So that's your trump card.'
"It's quite boring, a faker will always be a fa-"
However, before Sukuna could finish his taunts, the mirrors all around him suddenly shone with a bright red light as they were finally activated.
*Swish*
*Bzzzzz*
*BOOOM*
In an instant, the slashing attacks that Sukuna was launching toward Yuta were copied and then sent back from every single direction.
It was as if there was an army of Sukunas was spawned and then they ordered to attack someone at the same time.
Such an attack was so devastating that even Sukuna couldn't continue his attack fractions of a second after its activation.
All he could do was stand in place and get completely torn apart by his own attacks.
Right now, all that could be seen from where Sukuna was standing was a cloud of blood which completely covered a meter in radius around him.
This cloud of blood was caused by the blood that was splattered each time a limb or part of Sukuna got torn apart getting vaporized into a cloud of blood by the next few attacks.
*PUFF*
*PUFF*
*PUFF*
Seeing this, Yuta who had been looking slightly worried couldn't help but smile happily; This is his declaration of victory.
It's just that as he smiled happily, Yuta didn't notice the small grin that had appeared on Sukuna's face before quickly disappearing.
Moreover, he wasn't the only one to not notice such a detail as the thoughts of victory were also shared by those watching the battle from all over the world.
"That's it?"
"I thought that the stronger curse would be stronger, at least it has to match the strongest sorcerer."
"I agree, however, it's good that it finally ended, we can now move on to the really important part."
"Important part?"
"Yes, after this, the silver-haired guy should finally declare what he's after."
It's just that as most people were about to move on, some were still very skeptical about the situation.
"I don't know about this, but I feel like something's wrong."
"Don't be so negative, it's ove-"
However, before the man could finish his phrase, his eyes suddenly went wide in shock as he looked at the live broadcast in front of him.
This was quickly noticed by the skeptical guy who was talking to him as he also turned his head toward the screen to see what was happening.
It's just that as he did so, the calm look on his face soon transformed into a self-deprecating smile.
"It's indeed over, but not as we've all expected."
