A monochrome manga page with three vertical panels. Panel P1 is split by a sharp diagonal slash; on the left, a distant back view shows a short-haired, light-haired swordsman in a long, high-collared uniform coat that billows in the wind, standing atop smoking rubble while holding a sword. On the right, a close crop shows the head and a scraped hand of a fallen boy. Panel P2 is an extreme close-up of the boy looking upward with wide, trembling eyes and an open mouth; his face is marked by dirt smudges, sweat, and a large, opaque, stylized teardrop on his cheek. Panel P3 occupies the bottom half of the page; the light-haired swordsman turns his head over his shoulder to face the viewer with a gentle, faint smile. He wears the same high-collared coat with a small emblem on the chest strap, and his hand grips the sword hilt at the bottom edge of the frame, surrounded by drifting smoke and light particles. The artwork features sharp G-pen linework, discrete dot screentones on the hair and uniforms, ink splatters, and high-contrast black-white-grey separation with halftone gradients. overlay text: A narration box on the right side of the first panel reads 'ジン(じん)さん'. A narration box on the left side of the second panel reads 'ジン(じん)さん'. A narration box on the right side of the third panel reads 'オレの神様(かみさま)'. overlay effect: Screentone and dot tone are applied throughout the page. Ink splatter and speed lines appear in the first panel. White smoke and light effects drift around the swordsman in the third panel.Yamiyaki44
