Chapter 418: You’ve Done Well
The cheers seemed to pierce the clouds and shake the heavens, sending ripples through the entire world.
The passion and joy of the people erupted like a volcano—wild and unstoppable.
The skies of Soul Society appeared illuminated by those shouts, glowing brilliantly.
Light reached every corner, lit up every face.
Where once there had been only darkness, now there was hope—vibrant and alive.
Sunlight spilled through the thinning clouds, casting golden patches across the ground.
Those glimmers of light fell upon the survivors, upon the broken remnants of buildings.
Shattered swords glinted in the sun, as if whispering stories of the fierce battle from the night before.
The living gazed around in a daze, taking in their surroundings—only now realizing just how long and harrowing that night’s battle had been.
...
The sun rose as always.
Its warm rays poured over Soul Society, as if nothing had happened, as if peace had never been disturbed.
