Of course, Anti-Gravity System had its limitations.

  One major weakness was that while casting the spell, the caster couldn't move freely without experieng the same gravitational effect themselves.

  Of course, that rule only applied to ordinary sorcerers.

  For Ryuji, such straints meant nothing.

  The food curse spirit was half-kneeling, straining uhe immense pressure of fifty times gravity, its grotesque form quivering as it struggled. Watg it, Ryuji took a deliberate step forward. The gravity field washed over him, but his pace didn't falter for even a moment.

  Due to the Soul-dev teique, Ryuji's physical abilities were now beyond human limits, strohahe most fearsome warriors of the sea. Fifty times gravity couldn't touch him.

  He stopped in front of the food curse spirit, raising one hand in a casual gesture, shaping his fingers into the form of a pistol aimed directly at its head.

  "If that's all you've got, then this is where you die," Ryuji decred coolly.

  What he didn't expect, however, was the sudden notification that appeared in his mind.

  "Successfully tacted target: Food Curse Spirit! The goldery has been triggered. Do you want to load it?"

  A goldery? This was ued. Ryuji hadn't anticipated obtaining such a valuable entry from this bizarre spirit. He felt a twinge of curiosity about what ability might e from it, but that could wait. If it turned out to be underwhelming, he could always depose it ter.

  His eyes gleamed with amusement as he focused on the panic-stri creature before him.

  "…"

  The food curse spirit's eyes, filled with dread, darted around wildly. It knew Ryuji wasn't bluffing, this human fully inteo kill it.

  No! This couldn't be the end. The cursed spirit had only just e ie hadn't yet had a ce to spread true fear, to make humanity tremble at the very sight of food. It refused to die now.

  Driven by desperation, the food curse spirit forced its upper body off the ground, bringing its hands together with a resounding cp.

  "Oh?"

  Ryuji's i iqued. "Is that… a domain?"

  Ihe gesture was one used exclusively to initiate a domain expansion. And given the spirit's nature, it wasn't surprising it possessed su ability.

  "Humans, prepare yourselves for despair!" the curse spirit roared.

  Its newfound fidence sent a ripple of energy through the air.

  "You hesitated, and that was your downfall!" it jeered. "Your arrogance will be your undoing!"

  Its voice turned guttural and sinister as it shouted:

  "Domain Expansion—Food Space!"

  A wave of dark, sinister energy spread rapidly from the curse spirit, enveloping the entire academy. In an instant, everyoill within Totsuki's grounds was swept into the domain.

  "An open domain?" Ryuji observed, eyes narrowing slightly.

  Just like Sukuna's Malevolent Shrihis domain en-type space, but the size of it was what surprised him the most.

  "The esuki Academy?" Ryuji muttered. The scope of this domain was no joke; it was parable to some of the rgest he had entered.

  "Impressive," he admitted. Had this curse spirit not entered him so early in its existe might have developed into a formidable threat.

  "Where are we?"

  Gasps and murmurs rose from the students and staff who found themselves ihe domain, their eyes wide with disbelief.

  "Look at all this food!" someone shouted, eyes gleaming as they took in their surroundings.

  The sky was now a vas of cotton dy clouds, the buildings were formed from bread and pastries, and every tree was a giant piece of fruit or a popsicle. Everything was meticulously crafted to be as appealing and mouthwatering as possible.

  "This pce is amazing," murmured Alice, uo hide her awe.

  "Wait," Ryuji said, lifting a hand as a sudden realization struck him. "Something's off here."

  He sed the domain carefully. This setting was too inviting, too perfect. And with his willpower, he shouldn't have felt the urge to taste anything here.

  "Bewitt," he said, his voice firm. The domain wasn't just a visual trap, it carried an insidious charm to pel ahin it to eat.

  "Delicious! So much food!" came the voices of those around him, some already succumbing to the curse's effects.

  "Do it!" Ryuji shouted, his eyes darting to see Kaguya and Alice reag for pieces of cake.

  In a fsh, the cursed pattern appeared at the er of Ryuji's mouth.

  "Release!"

  "Recover!"

  The ands cut through the mental fog, and both Kaguya and Alice dropped the food, looking around in fusion.

  "Did we just…?" Kaguya said, her brows furrowing as she pieced together what had happened.

  "Yes," Ryuji firmed. "You were bewitched."

  Senzaemon, the iion, tightened his jaowerful trick, ihank you, Ryuji."

  Ryuji nodded but didn't respond further, his attention drawn to a student in the distance who had already taken a bite of the food.

  "Delicious! It's so good!" the student cried, shoveling handfuls of cake into his mouth. But as he ate, a horrifying transformation began.

  His legs turned into strands of ramen, his torso ed into a loaf of bread yered with fillings, and in seds, his entire body morphed into an assortment of foodstuffs before colpsing into a lifeless heap on the ground.

  "Ah!"

  A collective gasp rippled through the crowd, the reality of the domain sinking in. The terror in their eyes made it clear, they uood now. If not for Ryuji, they could have suffered the same grotesque fate.

  "Hahaha!"

  The booming ughter of the food curse spirit resohroughout the domain, triumphant and taunting.
