Is Higuruma dead?

Of course not (copium).

Yes:

No:

__________

Tokyo Colony No. 1

Inside the theatre lies a man inside a bathtub and a half-curse, staring each other down.

The half curse pointed his arms towards the bathtub. "[Piercing Blood]."

*Phew*

Narrowly, the man got out of the way before being stabbed with a beam of blood.

*crash*

The bathtub was destroyed.

Higuruma, who was previously in the bathtub, spoke. "So, I see you are like the others, unwilling to have a civil conversation."

Choso spoke. "I need your points to get to my brother."

Higuruma narrowed his eyes. "Very well then. I don't plan on giving them to anyone."

Choso brought his hands together. "[Convergence]."

Higuruma grabbed a gavel that seemed to come out of thin air, which multiplied its size.

Lines showed themselves on Choso's face. "[Slicing Exorcism]."

Slicing Exorcism, the ability to sharpen blood is an attack that can be more effective than Piercing Blood, given the circumstances.

Usually, Convergence is used for Supernova or Piercing Blood. However, since Higuruma has proven the ability to avoid them, Choso decided to condense his blood to make his Slicing Exorcism faster and stronger.

Flowing Red Scale, Convergence, and Slicing Exorcism allow for a devastating attack.

Choso wanted to kill him now, not to waste any more time.

He spoke. "Die."

*Phew*

As the blood cut through the air, Higuruma's eyes widened as he raised the gavel. "[Domain Expansion: Deadly Sentencing]."

A black barrier forms around the both of them, instantly becoming a courtroom.

The blood stopped inches in front of his face.

Suddenly, a massive Shikigami appeared behind Higaruma.

Choso's eyes widened. 'My attack! It was stopped! No need to think about it, [Convergence].'

However, he couldn't compress his blood.

Choso dropped his arms and looked at his hands before Higuruma spoke. "Violence isn't permitted in my domain."

He scowled. "What does that mean for us, then?"

Higuruma spoke. "My domain's rules must be followed by all that are within. Judgeman, please begin."

Choso isn't like Yuji.

To Higuruma, Choso was just another culling game player, the same as the 19 who came before him.

He couldn't care less about his life story or morality.

The Judgeman spoke. "The defendant, Choso, is charged with the Serial Murder of 12 individuals at a local coffee shop in 2007."

Higuruma spoke. "You have three options: silence, confession, and denial. False statements are al-"

Choso spoke in a somber tone and looked Higuruma dead in the eyes. "I did it. My brothers' lives were on the line. I'd kill a hundred more if it meant I could keep them safe."
