Construction

Description

One object. One lifetime. That's the deal. Construction lets the user build a single real, permanent, physical object from cursed energy, but creating it burns every drop of cursed energy the user has. The act of making something is the act of dying.

Most techniques produce temporary constructs that dissolve when the energy fades. Construction creates something that lasts forever, as real and solid as if it had been forged in a workshop. The permanence comes at the ultimate price.

She died in her sister's arms, and in the same moment, the twin bond that had been limiting Maki's Heavenly Restriction shattered completely. Maki's body perfected itself into something comparable to Toji FushiguroToji FushiguroHumanThe Sorcerer Killer.

Toji couldn't see curses, couldn't ...: zero cursed energy, superhuman physical ability.

The sword Mai made became Maki's primary weapon. She used it to kill Ogi, then to destroy most of the Zenin clan. Every life that sword took started with the one life it cost.

She possessed Construction: the same technique as Mai Zenin, and used it far more proficiently, ra..., a sorcerer from Sukuna'sSukunaSpecial Grade · HumanThe King of Curses. A thousand years ago, Sukuna was a jujutsu sorcerer so powerful that other sorcerers of the golden age couldn't defeat him even working together. His cursed tec... era, also had Construction but used it differently, rapidly creating weapons and armor in combat without paying the full price, suggesting mastery can unlock intermediate uses between 'make a bullet' and 'make something and die.'
