SLAAAASH!
"…?!"
The White Rider's eyes widened in shock as his head tumbled from his neck. Blood sprayed violently from the severed stump, and his white stallion slowly dissolved into swirling white mist.
"Haaa… Haaa… I-I… I did it?"
Yasuke's hands trembled as he stared at Avenger's body collapsing to the ground, scattering into pure spirit energy.
Heroic Spirits were unique entities with a Spirit Core formed from their history and myths. They possessed no true physical form, only ethereal essence.
When they manifested physically for battle, they inherited vulnerabilities similar to those of a living being.
A strike to the neck, head, or heart could damage the Spirit Core.
A complete beheading like this was, without question…
An instant kill!
"I won…"
Yasuke exhaled heavily. Silence fell across the battlefield. The flames of war and vengeful specters began to fade away.
"Avenger?! What…! Don't tell me you died out of nowhere?!"
