Floating to a new rooftop, I absorbed unguarded spirits and rescued more souls from demons. After transferring my load at a telephone booth and hiding from a passing ghost parade, I bought twenty arrows from the Nekomata shop, though taking the wrong stairs led me toward a railway instead of the shrine.
I reached another roof, where I found some more spirits that I absorbed in my katashiro. The spirits were not guarded by any demons there, but from the high point, I noticed some demons taking other spirits into their mystery boxes, so I decided to save them.
For that, I jumped down there right away and started fighting those demons. It looked like I had saved all the spirits on that intersection because the waves of the demons were taken care of already, so I started absorbing the spirits into my katashiro next.
Hoping there would be a telephone booth close by, as I needed to empty my katashiros since they were likely full already, I spotted one nearby and went for it right away.
I transferred all the spirits I was holding in my katashiros, and then Ed decided to talk to me, mentioning the situation had become compromised and asking me to keep up the good work.
Suddenly, I noticed a ghost parade walking down the path, and I quickly stepped inside the local store right behind me. The ghost parade was totally oblivious to my presence there.
I could fight them, but I decided not to engage since it would just be a repeat of what I did last time, so I decided to leave them be instead.
I went back to the local store because I needed to buy some arrows from the Nekomata, the lazy cat, and I bought all 20 arrows that I could to max out my stock.
Then I decided to go for the shrine at last. I tried to get to high ground again, but since I didn't see any tengu around, I decided to take the stairs to get to a higher elevation.
Unfortunately, it looked like I took the wrong stairs, as it just took me straight toward a railway.
We'll continue in another post.
