No wonder the Hojo had given up attacking other countries and focused on recuperation.
"War... these adults, all for their own interests... Hm? Monsters..."
"Purifying Arrow!"
Several unknown monsters suddenly appeared ahead, gnawing on corpses. Kikyo casually fired an arrow, completely purifying them.
This seemed to be only the beginning. Gradually... more and more undead, skeletal remains, and grudge-type monsters appeared ahead.
Aragami
"Falling Sakura Slash!"
Five arcs of sword energy instantly cleared out the evil spirit monsters around them.
"Begone, all evil!"
Kikyo took out a string of prayer beads and scattered them forward... the resentful spirits were directly purified and dissipated.
"Feel my power! Crimson Fire Hell."
Hiyamaru spread her arms, sweeping a beam of fire forward and directly clearing away all the miasma.
"There's too much miasma. This is pointless."
Kikyo took out the Gale Tachi Yae Sakura had given her and unleashed a tornado, but... before long, the resentful spirits and miasma returned.
"Forget these things. Let's keep moving forward..."
Holding the Spirit Blade, she looked at the miasma that could not be cleared away at all. Continuing like this would be pointless.
"This place was probably more than just a battlefield. Before that, it must have been a mass graveyard. Otherwise, it couldn't possibly have such terrifying miasma." Kikyo examined the terrain and pondered for a while before making her guess.
"A mass graveyard... Mm, let's go!"
No longer bothering with the resentful spirits and miasma, the three continued onward...
After only a few steps, they discovered an ancient well beside a crude dirt path, with several soldiers' corpses lying next to it.
As Yae Sakura and the other two passed the desolate old well, a series of terrifying rasping sounds suddenly came from within, making their hairs stand on end.
"Be careful."
