Outside the Jinwen market, Kazuki quietly observed the old lady who was sitting in the narrow alley until it was midnight. When he saw that she did not move, he used the Sun and Moon sword and brought her home. He was only human, and it was only natural to have compassion.
Even if he did not know how long it had been since the old woman had passed away, but since he could see her, it was evident that she really did exist. He could not pretend as if he had not seen her and just let an elderly person remain next to a dumpster in a narrow alley.
When he reached home, it was nearly one in the morning… Letting the soul of the elderly woman out of the sword, she still had the same empty look where her gaze was vacant and unexpressive.
Even though she was looking at him, Kazuki knew that her consciousness was on the verge of fading away.
