Gosh, the explanation and image of the parasite shrub cells melting is so vivid and detailed...
And all I could think of is how Sakae died...
Poor man, the agony... Must've been so painful for him to have his cells burned up to the point of making it evaporated and vanished into the thin air. Think about the family he left behind as well, they still don't know he died. His daughter hate him, and his wife is still waiting for him to return back.
I guess people could say that it's his karma for killing demons out of spite in the past. But he seems to already regretted it after he met Aoi and work for the mononokean to saves demons. I bet he saves more than the amount he killed. And he even trade his own life to save another one in his very last breath.
I just feel so sorry for him...

I'll take my chances. I'll die if I really have to.
But as long as I am alive, I won't give my baby to anyone, not even to another blood relative. That lousy excuse of a mother is just a fucking coward. She admit it herself.
And what, drowning her own sister? What an audacity she had to come back to her and ask for such a favor. For food sake, she didn't even apologize, darn woman.
Hope she didn't fuck around and give birth to another poor baby. I'd become the ghost she were so afraid of, and do the honors of drowning her down the creek myself. She'd spend the last moment of her life in horror.

As someone who have also been scammed in the past... I cried along with the cleaner dude when he was on the rooftop. The world feels like it's ending, there's no hope left, I felt him so deep that the tears drenched my face. I had to stop reading for a moment to calm myself down.
It's good that he's doing better, he's not the only one who's proud of himself. I'm proud of him too.
I'm proud for the both of us. It's not easy to get back on our feet after crumbling down like that.
Though I do somehow manage to get back up,
but I'm never the same anymore, those scammers killed my trust in humans.
Never knew that frozen dumplings and lemon soda worth for about 3 digits... Is the freakin' dumplings stuffed with gold or what??
Well, I guess it is that expensive since the majesty He Tian himself who served the meal.
