3rd Point Of View

"Sukuna?" (Y/n) asked gently as she entered the throne room, squeezing past a few curse users so that she could get a glimpse of Sukuna's throne.
"Make way for her." Sukuna's voice suddenly demanded, making (Y/n)'s head perk up. It was then that all the men moved to the side and made a clear pathway from where she stood to Sukuna's throne.

From the clear pathway, she could finally see Sukuna, sitting on his throne with his head leaned into his first boredly. (Y/n) gulped as she hesitantly padded through the crowd, looking down at the floor to avoid all the baffled looks that the curse user gave her.
"If you've come to ask for permission to leave again-" Sukuna began to say, but she cut Sukuna off quickly as the girl looked up at him.

"No! I just...wanted to see you. But now I have! And since I can see you are busy with your meeting-" The girl babbled softly, but now this time it was Sukuna's turn to cut her off from speaking to him.
"I'm not." Sukuna told her sternly before ordering, "Sit." (Y/n) bit her lip gently as she hurried up the three steps until she stood on the same level as he did. Then she sunk to her knees so that she was sat beside him, with her inking supplies still laying around her on the floor from the last time she painted here.

The curse users looked at the girl with wide eyes and gasps, staring at her with open jaws and shocked features, wondering why the girl would sit beside Sukuna's throne. If the Lord said 'sit', you'd usually sit where you stand.
"B-but, my Lord...we are in the middle of a meeting." A random curse user mumbled, making the other curse users agree. Earlier Sukuna said he wasn't busy in a meeting, but he very much was. Why would he lie for this girl?

Sukuna glared venously at the man who spoke, making him snap his jaw shit and look to the floor with regret. Once the man had stopped talking and there were no more complaints from the other curse users, Sukuna looked down at (Y/n) with narrowed eyes, looking at her stomach which she'd been unconsciously pressing her hand against. Sukuna couldn't feel any of her pain spread to him through her aura so he found this odd.

"Are you still in pain?" Sukuna asked the girl lowly, making her look up at him.
"I'm actually a lot better this morning, thank you. I'm a little swollen but the tea has really been helping." (Y/n) too him gratefully, making Sukuna nod slowly.
"Uraume will brew another in the evening." Sukuna told the girl, making her smile to herself.

Sukuna then looked over towards the crowd of curse users who were scrutinising the two's interaction more and more with each passing second.
"Sukuna..." The girl suddenly mumbled, making the king of curses look back to (Y/n) with an acknowledging hum.
"Why are all these people here?" She asked him curiously, unable to ignore the men that stared so bravely at her from where she sat on the floor.

"Well, as you already know, Hiyate is dead." Sukuna began, begining to talk to the group collectively.
"Because you killed him." A curse user mumbled dully, his eyes locked on the floor as he spoke. His words were quiet and probably would haven't reached Sukuna's ears if it weren't for the fact that that particular curse user was standing in the front row.

Sukuna's eyes immediately sampled to this man, anger building up within him. The king of curses didn't want (Y/n) to know that particular fact and yet this random man goes blurting it out as if it's common knowledge.
"(Y/n)..." Sukuna mumbled, his voice dangerously low, showing his anger. (Y/n) looked over at Sukuna with innocent doe eyes, seeming to not have heard what the curse user said.

"Close your eyes for me." Sukuna then demanded. (Y/n) tilted her head with confusion before doing what Sukuna asked and closed her eyes. In that moment, Sukuna snapped his fingers and incinerated that particular curse user. The man made no noise as he turned into ashes- one moment there and the other a pile of black dust. The curse users around him gasped, stumbling back.
