Hearing this call to the unknown, all the people who were currently watching the live broadcast suddenly fell silent.
Moments ago, they were still shocked by what they had just seen watching the battle between Kenjaku and Gojo and the real-life visual effects they had just witnessed.
However, hearing that the 'master mind' behind all of this was finally going to appear, they fell silent for a moment before exploding into even higher levels of excitement.
"Is he finally going to appear?"
"Huh? Who will appear?"
"Weren't you paying attention? It's the guy behind all of this!"
"Ohh.."
"..."
Meanwhile, completely indifferent to what everyone was thinking, Lorien could be seen still sitting in the same position as he watched everything play out.
However, hearing Gojo's call, Lorien couldn't help but feel a bit surprised as he didn't expect to get called out like this.
'What is this guy up to? Does he want to start our battle right now? Doesn't he want to go and help his student?'
Scratching his chin, Lorien turned his head toward Yuki just to see the same confused look appear on her face which caused him to chuckle in reaction.
'Well, I don't know what he's currently thinking, however, he is indeed correct, It's time for me to join in!'
Thinking of this, a joyful look appeared on Lorien's face as his appearance also meant that the launch of the Dream Path was ever so close.
It's just that before showing up, he still had something else to deal with.
'Kenjaku...'
'As annoying as that guy is, he's really smart and useful...'
'Honestly, It would be a real pity to let him die just like that!'
Looking toward the Nightmare Realm side of the Shibuya metro station for a couple of moments, Lorien finally decided to use his power to help restore Kenjaku's memory.
[D/R: Memory Restoration]
*Bzzzz*
Using his power, a mysterious wave of energy instantly washed over the newly born nightmare spirit, helping it restore its past memory.
'Alright, this should be enough, I hope that he doesn't let me down!'
Smiling lightly, Lorien couldn't help but think expectantly about the ploys and weird stuff that Kenjaku would come up with after becoming a nightmare creature.
Frankly, if Kenjaku miraculously decides to settle down somewhere in the Nightmare Realm and call it quits, then the restoration of his memory would be a real waste.
After all, the only reason Lorien helped him was to make him act as a 'tester' for the Nightmare Realm to see if there are any loopholes or ways to exploit the existent rules.
Moreover, he could also help develop the nightmare side of the dream power system that Lorien didn't care much about as Kenjaku already has a lot of experience in doing such things.
'This guy's thousand years of experience is too precious to just let it disappear, otherwise, I would have just let this guy die.'
'Well, whatever, it's the old rules I guess, life imprisonment instead of a death sentence!'
'Hahahahaha, I think that even if they knew about this, they would thank me!'
Frankly, this is very different from the reason why Lorien gave Choso his memories back which is a completely personal thing.
Meanwhile, the restoration of Kenjaku's memory has a clear purpose and is a completely rational decision.
'Find and exploit all available resources.'
'Even an enemy might be useful in some situations...'
Thinking of this, Lorien's eyes shone brightly with wisdom as he then finally turned his attention towards Gojo who was still waiting for his appearance.
'It's time to go!'
*Crack*
*Crack*
Sitting up, a series of cracking noises echoed as Lorien stretched his arms and legs after sitting for such a long period of time.
"Are you coming?" Suddenly said Lorien turning his head toward Yuki who still continued to sit in place lazily.
"Nah, I'm good!"
Hearing this, Lorien just shook his head as he had already expected such an answer.
"Alright then, enjoy the show!"
*Swish*
-
Meanwhile, at the Shibuya Metro Station, Gojo could be seen standing in place, waiting for Lorien to appear.
It's just that after waiting for a minute or so, he couldn't help but feel slightly impatient not knowing if Lorien would even come out.
'This is weird, With that guy's personality, he should have already come out.'
'Should I go help Yuta then?'
However, just as Gojo turned his head toward the direction of the Aoyama Cemetry, a voice suddenly sounded from behind, causing him to smile lightly.
"Worried about your student?"
"Maybe, so do you care to elaborate? what are you even up to?"
"A few things, but if you are worried about Yuta's situation then you don't have to, he's currently switching paths, meanwhile, Sukuna is sealed."
"Hmmm, sealed? for how long?"
"Until Yuta finishes his transformation!"
Hearing this, Gojo's eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly as he looked at the silver-haired man in front of him who had a mysterious look plastered on his face.
'It seems that I don't have to worry about him.' Thought Gojo, his nerves finally relaxing as he then switched his attention back to Lorien.
"So that's how it is, You are showcasing the new path aren't you?"
"Hahahhaah, It's clear, isn't it?"
"Yes, it is! The strongest cursed spirit dying at the hands of a new Dream Path Taker, great publicity!"
"Indeed, but you know what's even better publicity? the strongest sorcerer losing to the dream path maker!"
Hearing this, a look of disdain appeared on Gojo's face as he responded to Lorien's provocation.
"Another challenger? well, considering our acquaintance, I recommend that you change your plan, otherwise, you might not be able to start your plan!"
"Nah, I like it the way it currently is."
"Try it then." Said Gojo, his curse energy flaring up.
However, seeing this, Lorien still remained calm while continuing his taunts.
"Don't forget, you've already lost once, so you are the challenger here."
"Tsk, you're really annoying."
"Right back at you."
"..."
Finally finishing their pre-fight speeches, the two fighters suddenly fell silent causing the atmosphere to solidify as an oppressive aura shrouded the place.
*BZZZZZZZ*
