The conspicuous attire of Ushi Time had already been effortlessly shed after leaving Echo Mountain at dawn.
The long hair that previously draped over her face was now tied back.
Currently, she looked no different from a human.

An independent, unofficial exorcist of the Yuden Shinto tradition, a status even filed with the Countermeasures Office in Osaka.
