Summary Naraku ponders Kikyou's demise at Mt Hakurei

He gloated as he stared into the abyss. All his planning had finally come to fruition. Kikyou was dead. No longer could she laugh in his face and claim that he could not harm her as she had that day when she stormed into his castle. Lucky for him she had supplied the key to killing her. If the heart which loved Kikyou was no longer present in his body. Onigumo could no longer protect her from him.

That day he had vowed that she would die. His creatures might be able to touch her, but he could if he could just remove that heart from his body. It had not been an easy task. He had been forced to hijack Mount Haukeri, and hide behind a saint's barrier in order to have the time to remove his feeling for Kikyou, but he had done it. The proof was the flotsam inside Mount Hakurei .At least he did not have to feel anything for Kikyou anymore. Those days were gone.

He sighed. In some ways he had hoped she would put up more of a fight. Instead, she had simply fallen into the abyss without putting up any resistance. It made the effort he had gone to get rid of her seem hardly worth it. He felt cheated. His victory hollow Kikyou had not even acknowledged what he had done nor properly appreciated the new body that he had constructed to defeat her. Even in death Kikyou had escaped him again.
