The age of parting between humans and gods has arrived. The future will be written by humanity...
That should have been how it went. But at some point, something went wrong. The abandoned gods resented humanity, and They cursed mankind.
[Humanity's negative emotions will turn into cursed energy, and the cursed energy that spills out will become curses.]
The cursed energy leaking from all living beings formed a sea of cursed energy, and humanity struggled in its bitter waters. But people did not give up. To resist contamination by cursed energy, those with talent learned to control it, and jujutsu sorcerers came into being. Yet the stronger one's cursed energy, the more severe the contamination, and the greater one's talent, the more likely one was to go to extremes under its influence.
The world diverged drastically from its destined course and was pruned by Human Order. The Throne of Heroes could no longer be reached, and the planet's mana was depleted.
The god regretted it. They resented the fledgling birds who wished to leave Their embrace, yet loved the essence of human life: its tenacious vitality in the face of adversity. That love for walking alongside humanity, that very curse, was the source of the calamity that severed humanity's future. Rejected by the world, They could no longer save the struggling masses.
At the cost of sealing Themselves away, the god connected to the "Throne," hoping to walk alongside humanity and protect it forever. But in doing so, They committed a grave sin. And so the Enlightened One [savior] answered this prayer. Seeds of compassion crossed countless shattered worlds, countless despairing futures---
Satoru Gojo was born. He was a seed not yet enlightened, born to save humanity.
[When the Wheel of Dharma turns, all beings and all afflictions return to the Great Enlightenment.]
This is the story of a small human who has yet to attain enlightenment.
Setting 1: The Enlightened One [saver]'s seed of compassion is a fragment of his consciousness from before his enlightenment.
Setting 2: No one can ascend to the Throne of Heroes in a pruned world. This is a world rejected by Human Order, and the world also rejects Human Order.
Setting 3: Neither the humans born in this world nor those yet to be born have the ability to save this world's timeline. That is why the world was pruned. Only the birth of "Enlightenment" offers a chance to change this future.
Hidden setting 1: Only those burdened by grave sins can receive a response from the Savior (Satoru).
Hidden setting 2: Those who gather around Satoru and feel positively toward him are all [people bearing some kind of sin].
Theme: Only humanity can redeem itself
It's so sad. I really want to see the teacher continue writing but the curse is really not worthy... It's so painful. Why would such a good cat treat Xiaowu like this?
The more I look at this world, the more unworthy I feel.
I like it so much... Eat happily
What a wonderful article this is!!! The compatibility between fgo and curse has been perfectly integrated by the author. People who tweeted five items felt the ultimate happiness
The baby is so cute, so cute without any sense of distance, so cute like a kitten, Teacher Noctua is really the best. Thank you for your great writing!
