Chapter 095: Eternity

Eternity (永遠に, Eien ni) is the 95th chapter of the Kekkaishi Manga written and illustrated by Yellow Tanabe.

Summary
As Gen Shishio falls from the sky, Yoshimori Sumimura rushes toward him.

Shion wonders why Kaguro changed his mind about joining the battle. Byaku suddenly rushes to Princess, who has abruptly fallen ill. Byaku orders an immediate retreat for all of Kokuboro's forces.

As Yoshimori and Tokine worry over Gen, Kaguro says Gen should have had more courage. Yoshimori attacks him, but Kaguro easily avoids him, and leaves after saying he expects a lot more from Yoshimori. The black clouds withdraw along with Kokuboro.

Gen eventually wakes up to Yoshimori's pleas, reverting to his human form. Shigemori Sumimura and Kyoichi Hiba arrive. Hiba only seems concerned that Gen broke the rule not to transform. Tokine tries to explain that his doing so saved their lives, but Hiba explains that Ayakashi Majiri are more vulnerable than true Ayakashi, which is why Gen isn't allowed to transform. Hiba notices that the cells around the would are working very slowly and normally would have healed already. As an Ayakashi Majiri himself, he can sense Gen's life ending and admits that while he hates Gen, he never wished for his death. Gen asks Hiba to take his apology for

failing to defend the land to Masamori Sumimura. Gen's life flashes before his eyes, and he is confused at why Yoshimori is crying over him. Gen wishes he could have apologized to his sister, but smiles and says he has no regrets. Yoshimori recognizes the sensation of the land's power assisting someone in dying, and begs Gen to fight it. Masamori arrives at Karasumori with the Night Troop's Relief Unit, but is shocked when Yoshimori tells him that Gen is already dead.
