Gojo-Sensei and His Feudal Wife

Zenin Sumi once believed she had to be useful to deserve to live.

After all, she was born into the feudal Zenin clan, where “non-sorcerers aren’t human” and “women are the lowest of the low.”

In a place stacked with every possible disadvantage, she even had a godawful Heavenly Restriction: “In exchange for being unable to use any cursed energy, gain an almost unsurpassed amount of cursed energy.”

How ridiculous. She had all that cursed energy and couldn’t use any of it, so her only remaining value was as a broodmare.

When she was fifteen, she tried and failed to poison her fiancé. As she lay dying outside the clan, the kindhearted Strongest took her home.

After that, she was unconscious for eleven years. When she woke, she was twenty-six and, as a bonus, the Strongest’s wife.

…Honestly, it was enough to make her wake up laughing from a dream.

She didn’t have to be the disgusting Zenin elders’ mistress, and her husband was the Six-Eyed Child of God.

The only problem was that it made her uneasy. He treated her far too much like a person.

For a while, she thought about getting in touch with her cousin, who had the same broken-down air about him, and asking for some marriage advice.

…Oh. Toji had been killed by her husband eleven years ago. Honestly, she couldn’t bring herself to feel sad. She’d always thought Toji was bound to meet that end sooner or later.

After they married, though it was only a title, Sumi wanted to repay her husband’s kindness. She just never knew how.

Then came the Shibuya Incident, and Gojo was sealed.

At last, she understood what was the one thing the Heavenly Restriction hadn’t taken from her…

She took it out, made it into a cursed object, and entrusted it to Shoko.

She couldn’t wait until December 24. First, she would do her best to wish him a life beyond that day.

In the Shinjuku Showdown, the Strongest was killed.

But at the moment of his “death,” the cursed object his wife had given him was activated.

A blood-red, grotesque womb swallowed him, and then the Strongest “came back to life.”

And within the innate domain opened by the Special Grade cursed object his wife had left behind, the King of Curses went from alive to dead at a visible speed, utterly destroyed.

She had the strongest technique imaginable, “Life,” but it required her “death” to break her Heavenly Restriction.

Looking at the cursed object in his hand, he silently recalled everything connected to her.

New life.

Rebirth.

…Then he would be reborn.

He would bring her back from the dead end of fate.

Reading guide:

An original female protagonist. In the first run, the pairing is 285. In the second, he raises her from childhood: a widower cat saves his future wife from abuse by the Zenin clan.

This is a slow-burn story with a dark world. Think cold-blooded shonen manga. The heroine has severe emotional trauma. In the first run, until her death, she and Gojo Satoru, age thirty-three, are only twisted “best friends” (crossed out: “Leaves”). The pure romance only begins in the second run.

P.S. The heroine’s devotion to Gojo is no less intense than Uraume’s to Sukuna. She doesn’t say it aloud, but she’s completely Gojo-centric. She’ll do all sorts of extreme things to prove her worth. Later, when Gojo is sealed, she’ll lose control of her power and be able to solo the Shibuya Incident and Culling Game, then massacre the higher-ups.

Blurb ↓

Chen Zihe, a timid and cowardly online fiction writer, has spent years posting ghost stories on a paranormal forum to cope with pressure she can’t put into words.

Then one day, she received an official notification

[Your story was too *+-% (garbled), so your pen name has been automatically selected as “Ruler 007.”]

After that, Chen Zihe suddenly found herself with a crowd of mysterious online users, each sporting an ID based on some horrific crime. Every day, they mechanically and stiffly told her about their everyday lives, as if writing in diaries, and as if recounting ghost stories.

As time went on, those terrifying events began to happen in her life for real.

After receiving the forum’s latest official reply, Chen Zihe finally figured out what was going on.

It turned out that posts published under the pen name “Ruler” could indirectly communicate with the dead, and even manipulate the fates of people in a distorted version of reality through text.

Unfortunately, she wasn’t the only writer chosen to use the pen name “Ruler.” There were others besides her, the newcomer

She was only “Number 007.”

The rules allowed only one Ruler, so one of the writers had already started writing a story, secretly setting countless deadly traps for her.

Chen Zihe: Can’t I just quit? (shivering) You might as well just kill me. (shivering even harder)

Just as she was falling into despair, a long-awaited beginner’s guide finally arrived in her inbox. The forum had assigned her a personal moderator.

The moderator could not be influenced or altered. His purpose was to protect her and uphold her rule.

Chen Zihe finally lost it! Tears filled her eyes. At last, she could see a way out.

Following the map coordinates, Chen Zihe eagerly set out to find the mysterious subordinate who belonged to her.

When she went to meet her forum moderator for the first time, the children’s cries and occasional ghastly white faces that had been haunting her day and night all cowered in a corner.

The young moderator was pale and weak-looking, with an air of refined beauty. Chen Zihe’s frightened face was reflected in his ink-black eyes.

This moderator was the ex-boyfriend she had finally managed to get away from during university.

Chen Zihe remembered that he had died eight years ago.
