"Human Sign, 「Blade of Memories」"
Vincent draws his longsword and slices at the enemy. A blinding flash of light fills the cherry tree garden. Komachi covers her eyes. Then, as the brightness disappears into the night, Vincent sheathes his blade.
"Hrggkkh?"
The seven swamp ghouls gurgle in surprise. Then, in the next moment, they fall apart like badly made meat puppets. Decomposing blood and flesh is everywhere. Komachi steps back gingerly to avoid the bloody drizzle.
"Seven in one blow," he says with a smile.
Komachi nervously returns his grin.
"N-not bad for a human," she says. "I see that you've gotten pretty strong now."
Vincent pauses to wipe of the blood from his coat.
"I had a good teacher."
The shinigami shakes her head.
"It's more than that. Even Youmu thinks that you're something amazing. I've never heard of a human or youkai who could learn so quickly. It's as if you were just remembering the skills that you have forgotten."
Vincent pauses for a moment. Skills that he had forgotten? Did he hear that somewhere before? He pauses to think carefully, but for some reason, his head aches when he tries to remember. But something feels familiar about -
"..!"
His eyes widen in shock. Someone is standing right behind Komachi. He opens his mouth to call out to her. But it's already too late. In the next second, the attacker stabs her from behind with a long katana. The blade pierces through her chest without mercy.
"D-damn it," mutters Komachi.
She swings her scythe behind her, but the attacker recovers her weapon and dodges the counterattack in an instant. The enemy lands several paces away without a sound. Komachi's eyes widen for a moment before she collapses to the ground.
"Got careless.."
"Machi!" cries Vincent. "You dirty bastard! I'll kill -"
He stops mid-sentence as the moonlight illuminates the enemy. There is no mistake about it. The person who just attacked is -
"Y-Youmu?"
The half-ghost stares back at him with empty eyes. In her hands are two katanas, each easily able to slice a human into pieces. She pauses for a moment, as if confused. Then, without a word, she starts walking towards him with weapons drawn.
