"Speak."
"I need the soul of an exceptional warrior to cultivate a Wilderness Skeleton." Kamiyagawa took out [Withered Bones]. "I wonder if there's anyone suitable here on the Three Paths River."
As his voice fell, a faintly fragrant breeze spiraled up from the Sea of Otherworldly Flowers, brushing gently against the pale, stark skull as if with soft, tender hands.
Then, from deep within the blood-red thicket, slender petals shot skyward, revealing a figure.
The figure held a Cross-Patterned Spear, draped in bright red armor that was battered and worn. Numerous stray arrows and short blades were embedded in the armor, and beneath the Star Helmet, only a pair of cold, luminous Pupil Fires continued to gleam stubbornly.
Moreover, there was the Samurai family crest emblazoned on the Star Helmet—
Six Copper Coins.
Kamiyagawa had previously studied the Three Paths River and gathered intelligence related to it, so he recognized this detail.
