As a Blacksmith in the World of Jujutsu Kaisen
[Note: This novel is updated on every even-numbered date]
My name is Kenji Satoshi. In my first life, I worked as a Game Item Designer—someone who designed weapons, artifacts, and various objects with strange functions for virtual worlds. My days were spent in front of a screen, drowning in endless work. Like an ending far too common, I died from exhaustion. Nothing dramatic—just darkness… and then I woke up again.
When I opened my eyes, I realized I was inside the body of a small child, bearing the exact same name as mine. That confusion, however, quickly turned into fear. This world was not the Earth I knew. I saw Cursed Spirits—creatures that should have existed only in anime. The strangeness deepened when I saw the name of the Shinomiya Family on television, and discovered Kuoh City while searching for information on the internet.
That was when I understood. This was not an ordinary world, but a crossover world formed from various anime I had once watched. A dangerous world—chaotic, unforgiving, and utterly hostile to an ordinary person like me. A simple yet terrifying question kept echoing in my mind: could I survive here?
The answer came when I was attacked by a Cursed Spirit and nearly died. At the very edge of destruction, something within me awakened—my Innate Technique. I gained the ability to forge, create, and reconstruct various objects with diverse functions using Cursed Energy.
This power did not make me strong from the start. My energy reserves were limited, and every creation carried its own risks. But one thing was certain—I would survive. In this cursed world, I would forge my own path.
[Announcement! I’ve said this several times, but I’ll explain it again. English is not my main language, so I use AI to help with translate. If I use Google Translate, there will be issues like incorrect he/she usage and other problems. This novel is truly written by me, not by AI. If it feels like AI, that’s because I use AI for translation. If you’re wondering why it’s very detailed, it’s because I had a bad experience before. In my earlier novels, many people said the story jumped around too much, lacked detail, and was unclear. Now, in my current novel, I make every chapter detailed, but you say it’s made by AI. What do you actually want? What do you want? When I make it less detailed, you say it’s bad. When I make it detailed, you say it’s AI-made! Honestly, you ask for too much! What do you think I am? A god? I’m just a writer, so please don’t make me stressed.]
