I Became a New Calamity After Maxing Out Fear

Yuan Shanxiao is an ordinary person who jumps three feet into the air whenever he sees a bug. Then one day, he transmigrated into the Jujutsu Kaisen world... He was so scared of cursed spirits that he nearly gouged out his own eyes. He was so afraid of villains that he’d bolt before they could even say a word. Then he discovered that his technique let him teleport through space over long distances “Report, Gojo-sensei! GPS shows Yuan Shanxiao has bolted all the way to the Southern Hemisphere again!” Before he awakened his memories of the manga, the only thing that comforted Yuan Shanxiao was that his mentor was the strongest in this world. So even though the cursed spirits in this world were terrifying, and the curse users were horrifying too, he felt much safer after printing out a poster of his white-haired teacher to ward off evil and filling his room with the strongest teacher’s merchandise. He’d become the strongest teacher’s most devoted lackey, through and through. Until he awakened his memories of the manga He discovered that his only source of security had been sealed away... Wait, what?! Everyone else transmigrates back to the Hidden Inventory era. How come he woke up right in the middle of the Shibuya Incident, when Gojo was sealed?! And he still has to go through the Shinjuku Showdown?! A strange student showed up at Jujutsu High. He seemed to have come from the ordinary human world. He had a cursed technique and could see cursed spirits, but when Gojo brought him to the school, he clung to a stone pillar, streaming tears and snot, and refused to go. “Nooo, I don’t want anything to do with cursed spirits!! They’re so scary!!” White-haired teacher: … After discovering the boy’s unusual technique, Gojo thought that he already had enough problem students. One more wouldn’t matter. But just as he put on a movie, planning to teach the boy to control his emotions and manipulate cursed energy The boy had already vanished from his side. “...No way! You’re scared of an art film too?!” Gojo knew the boy was so timid that he was terrified of this world overrun with cursed spirits, always ready to run away. But to recruit this “incredibly powerful yet excessively timid” boy, he had no choice but to brainwash him with a whole series of claims. “Huh? Is there anywhere safer than being by my side?” “Do you even know who’s standing next to you?” “I’m the strongest, you know, do you even understand what that means? I’m the only one who can protect you. Without me, you’ll run into a cockroach cursed spirit the moment you step outside.” The brainwashing worked perfectly. The boy treated the signed poster, ID photo, and even the used cup Gojo casually handed him as sacred objects, placing them before the window to ward off evil. The whole school came to think he was Gojo’s most devoted fan. But the brainwashing seemed to have worked a little too well. Gojo had thought that in the twenty-first century, nobody could still believe in the kind of manipulative “you’ll die without me” talk. But the boy seemed to believe it because he was so terrified [Gojo-sensei is the strongest. If I leave his side, cursed spirits will kill me.] After learning what the boy was thinking, Gojo joked, even though there was no chance of it happening. “Huh? What if I’m not the strongest someday?” The boy immediately looked over at him. “That day will never come.” Gojo was about to say something else when he heard the boy’s voice again. “Because I’ll kill whatever makes you no longer the strongest, Gojo-sensei.” Gojo didn’t believe him. The boy wouldn’t even exorcise cursed spirits. He only ran away. He’d never draw his blade. But when Gojo Satoru left the stage and everyone was locked in a desperate struggle, the boy, having completely lost the sense of safety that came from the strongest protecting him, watched his fear levels skyrocket. He fled like the protagonist of a horror movie, killing every person and Buddha in his path. When Yuan Shanxiao finally regained his memories of the manga and looked at Sukuna standing in his way, at this aberrant strongest who wasn’t Gojo-sensei, a cold voice finally rang in his head. [Fear level has reached its limit.] And so, disaster descended. Fear became fear itself. *The synopsis gives away the world’s destruction during the Shinjuku Showdown. *The protagonist is an extreme self-interest seeker with no moral limits. He isn’t a good person and really will destroy the world. He doesn’t care whether anyone besides Gojo Satoru lives or dies, though the ending is happy. *The protagonist is a brilliant strategist, an obliviously sinister mastermind, and very different from the useless coward in the synopsis. *CP: 285. The romance begins when they’re adults. Gojo-sensei will be spared all the things he regretted in the original story. Gojo is the protagonist’s motivation. *Not an effortless power fantasy, but the protagonist is the strongest in both combat and intelligence. The story revolves around him. *Silly, seriously OOC. Apologies for all the references. The comedy and dark, twisted elements may be split 1:1. *Multiple loops. Timeline: Shibuya Incident, back to Hidden Inventory, Shinjuku Showdown, new world. New world: A happy ending where everyone from the Hidden Inventory era survives and works alongside Gojo as fellow teachers. *The Shibuya Incident, Hidden Inventory, and Shinjuku Incident contain major late-manga spoilers, after the axed storyline. *30% theft protection. *The strongest teacher deserves the strongest happiness. Check out my upcoming danmei, Rewind, Then Slap My Boss Kamikawa Ryu: In his first life, he was a college student working part-time washing dishes at McDonald’s. He died when a mysterious fire burned him alive. In his second life, he became an assistant supervisor and learned that cursed spirits existed. A special-grade cursed spirit had killed him in his previous life with a sneeze. Kamikawa Ryu cautiously and conscientiously survived until the Shibuya Incident, where Sukuna’s Domain Expansion sliced him into millions of pieces. Damn! That’s really damn bad! In his third life, he was reborn and finally made it to Grade 2 sorcerer. Relying on his previous memories, Kamikawa Ryu played it safe again and again. Then, during the Shinjuku Showdown between Gojo Satoru and Sukuna, he was too slow to run and died when a building collapsed on him. His fourth life... his fifth life... Kamikawa Ryu could never escape Japan, or the manga that kept killing him over and over. After dying who knew how many times, his golden finger finally arrived. System: I can rewind you to one minute ago. You can decide when Before the System could finish, it saw Kamikawa Ryu charging into the headquarters with a knife and stabbing everyone in sight. Blood flowed everywhere. It was a horrifying scene. Kamikawa Ryu calmly wiped the blood from his face. “Rewind.” System: . Gojo Satoru, who had witnessed the whole thing from nearby without daring to enter: . ** In this life, Kamikawa Ryu finally maxed out his technique, joined the main storyline, and was sent to serve as a page and sparring partner to the Six-Eyed Divine Child. In the old guard’s eyes, Kamikawa Ryu was disciplined, proper, and respectful. In Gojo Satoru’s eyes, Kamikawa Ryu slapped the old guard twice before they’d even said a word, then sat back down, composed and proper. After rewinding, he respectfully brewed tea for the old guard. Gojo Satoru: . In everyone else’s eyes, Kamikawa Ryu was a loyal shadow behind Gojo Satoru, quiet, gentle, and always at his side. In Gojo Satoru’s eyes, Kamikawa Ryu... One second, the gray-haired young man had a grim look in his eyes and was holding a knife to Gojo’s neck, threatening him fiercely: “If you dare die before the Shinjuku Incident, I’ll stab you.” The next second, the gray-haired young man was sitting respectfully on a cushion, head bowed. “Please take care of yourself on your journey, Master.” Gojo Satoru: . Gojo Satoru seemed to be the only one who could see Kamikawa Ryu rewind. At first, he just thought his little follower was a bit weird, until... During the Shibuya Incident, Kenjaku had already bound him with the Prison Realm, and he was about to be sealed inside Kamikawa Ryu: Rewind. The next second, Gojo Satoru had also leaped eight feet away from the Prison Realm. During the Shinjuku Showdown, Sukuna was about to kill him with a space-cutting slash. Kamikawa Ryu: Rewind. The next second, Gojo Satoru instantly used Blue to dodge the attack. Gojo Satoru turned to look at his silent follower, who was like a shadow, his eyes full of astonishment. ** Kamikawa Ryu thought Gojo Satoru was the protagonist of this manga. He’d died at Sukuna’s hands in every previous life, and figured that once the protagonist defeated Sukuna, he’d finally be able to live in peace. But the protagonist’s group took turns fighting Sukuna and still lost. Kamikawa Ryu: ? Gojo Satoru fought Sukuna and got hit with a binding vow. Kamikawa Ryu: ? Kamikawa Ryu was still mentally typing question marks when he looked back and realized nearly everyone around him was dead. Kamikawa Ryu pointed at himself. “W-what... I’m fighting Sukuna?” Though he had no idea how to win or how to fight, Kamikawa Ryu still rewound first Then slapped Sukuna. Theme: Protect yourself
