More late-game pest-control by the bug-smashing GOAT, Francesco Funiati! Thank you for all of the amazing help!
Also, a quick PSA: If you've enjoyed your experience with Grand Soul Story (or have not enjoyed it and want to obliterate and/or constructively critique the game), leaving a Steam review is greatly appreciated as it helps with the game's visibility. In addition, all feedback is taken into consideration for future updates! Thanks : )
May you ever be one with the One!
