Souryo was the one who guided Kagemitsu Daigo to the Hell Hall.
Similar Role as the Original
He acts almost the same as the Shonin (high priest) in the original story.
He helps Daigo find his way in the world ruled by darkness and pain.
Struggles with Faith
In this hell-like world, praying feels empty for Souryo.
He starts to doubt the Buddha and whether praying does anything to help people.
Final Moments and Gratitude
Before these doubts can fully take over, Souryo is cut down.
He feels thankful to Daigo for freeing him from his pain and confusion, and he dies as he says thank you.
