180 After the Battle

"Seiji-sama!" He heard someone calling for him.

Seiji returned to his senses.

What he saw was… a tall hat?

The longsword in his hands had sliced this hat in half.

What was going on?

Shutendoji escaped, Light-chan explained.

"Oh…" Seiji blinked in confusion as he looked back.

He saw Okubo Yoshiaki collapsed on the ground, his robe in tatters. Okubo's hair had turned white, his expression was hollow, and he was bleeding from all his orifices.

When you defeated Shutendoji’s host’s soul, I cut off his head, and was about to kill him off for real… but he escaped. The heroic spirit’s voice was filled with depression. I deeply apologize! I actually made such a crucial mistake at the very end!!

So spirits had the ability to ditch their host and escape on their own?

Please punish me, Seiji-sama!

"Forget it… It’s fine as long as we won, Light-chan." Seiji smiled lightly.
