About “The Valiant Must Fall Vol. 2”

SHE WILL KILL HER MOTHER, THEN HERSELF. Shino wants to end her life, but not before ending her mother’s, saving them both from a fate worse than death. However, they are Adashino, immortals who can’t be slain by ordinary means. That’s why she’s enlisted her new kinsman, former samurai Haruyasu, to steal a sessho-seki, a blade capable of killing the unkillable. But wielding one also claims the bearer’s life. Can Haruyasu help Shino fulfill her duty without sacrificing himself as well? (Description courtesy of Penguin Random House.)
