Hazome Sosuke ran wildly without looking back, but behind him came dull thudding sounds and piercing whooshes.
It was like a fierce tiger, erupting with the terrifying might of the king of beasts, charging towards him.
At this moment, fear and panic consumed Hazome Sosuke's entire being.
Perhaps a sliver of hope remaining in his heart, and a strong desire for survival, made him spare a moment to turn his head, wanting to see how far the monster was from him.
However, the next second, Hazome Sosuke's face turned extremely grim, and a layer of desperate ashen gray crept over it.
The monster's speed was terrifyingly fast, and its overall movements were so agile they surpassed Hazome Sosuke's cognitive range.
He saw its form almost turn into a blurry afterimage, darting back and forth on the walls of the dark, narrow alley.
Finally, it leaped over his head and landed with a boom.
A gust of wind pressure swept up, making the clothes on Hazome Sosuke's body flap loudly.
The monster looked at Hazome Sosuke, whom it had successfully cornered in a deserted alley, its eyes playfully sizing up the human in front of him, its long tongue flicking back and forth, foul-smelling mucus splattering everywhere.
Immediately after, it roared, opening its large mouth and biting towards Hazome Sosuke's head!
"Damn it, whether it's an exorcist, a ninja, an onmyoji, a night watchman... anything, someone come save me!" Hazome Sosuke roared in his heart.
Just then, facing the monster's attack, the ashen gray in Hazome Sosuke's eyes turned into confusion.
Because he saw the pouncing monster suddenly freeze in mid-air.
Not just the monster, it seemed as if all time around him had stopped flowing.
Just as he was full of bewilderment, his body suddenly lost all sense of gravity, as if falling from a great height.
After several seconds, this sensation of weightlessness finally ended.
Hazome Sosuke looked around, his surroundings a scene of utter darkness.
The alley, the ferocious monster, the female victim who had been completely devoured—all had vanished.
It was as if everything that had just happened hadn't occurred, but the foul-smelling mucus remaining on his clothes told Hazome Sosuke that everything that had just happened was truly real!
"What's going on? Is anyone there? Hello?"
Hazome Sosuke called out confusedly, his voice echoing in the dark space.
Just then, a strange scene appeared.
One by one, scarlet points of light appeared and flickered, quickly illuminating the dark space with an eerie red glow.
Hazome Sosuke was stunned.
And without giving him a chance to react or think, those scarlet points of light scattered all around suddenly began to move and combine into lines of text!
"Welcome to the world of jujutsu kaisen."
"Congratulations, Host, you have successfully activated the Destined Villain Role-Playing System."
"Ding! Please draw the destined great villain you wish to role-play!"
At this moment, Hazome Sosuke finally knew that he had transmigrated into the world of jujutsu kaisen.
If so, then the terrifying long-tongued monster from just now was a Curse Spirit.
"No, buddy? I was just eating, reading manga, and casually complaining, and you actually made me come to the jujutsu kaisen world to fight Sukuna?" A million alpacas stampeded through Hazome Sosuke's mind.
No matter how much he racked his brains, he couldn't have imagined that his casual remark, "Huh? Am I going to fight Sukuna next?"
Would actually make him transmigrate here?!
However, complaints aside, at least he didn't lack the standard golden finger of a transmigrator.
While feeling fortunate, Hazome Sosuke also had a hint of doubt.
"Drawing a villain to role-play? How do I draw?"
The next second, cards appeared around Hazome Sosuke's body, their faces blurry, making it impossible to see the content depicted on them.
Immediately after, these cards flew around him in a circular path.
"So this is how I draw!"
After roughly understanding the situation, Hazome Sosuke, with quick eyes and hands, drew one card from the rapidly flying deck.
The moment he held the card, countless golden streams of light shot out from it, drilling into Hazome Sosuke's body.
At this moment, his entire body glowed with dazzling golden light.
"Wow! Golden Legend!"
Clearly, this card-drawing effect proved that Hazome Sosuke had drawn a rare card!
And to Hazome Sosuke's anticipation, the layer of mist obscuring the card's surface, like willow catkins encountering fire, rapidly burned away, revealing the card's full appearance.
Brown hair and brown eyes, wearing black-rimmed glasses, a gentle face, paired with soft eyes, giving off a friendly feeling like a spring breeze.
Completely the vibe of a friendly older brother next door.
And when he clearly saw the character image on the card, Hazome Sosuke was completely stunned.
"Villain Card: Aizen Sōusuke."
"Quality: SSS-rank."
"Source: Bleach."
"Abilities: Terrifying Reiatsu, instant casting of Kido spells of ninety series or higher without incantation, Zanpakuto Kyōka Suigetsu's perfect hypnosis that dominates the five senses, terrifying ambition, top-tier strategy, superhuman wisdom, research capabilities..."
"Holy crap!"
Congratulations, Host, you have successfully drawn the character card: Aizen Sōusuke."
"Reward Distribution: Zanpakuto, Hakuda, Hoho, Kido specialization +1, Zanpakuto: Kyōka Suigetsu (unreleased Shikai), Intelligence +1, Research Capability +1, Appearance +1..."
"Huh? Is this for real? I'm playing Aizen?"
