Kebiishi

Kebiishi (検非違使)
The Kebiishi are a type of enemy that may appear when you have cleared the same battlefield several times. After clearing the map an additional time, a cut screen will show lightning. After this, the map that was completed will show a mark showing the presence of Kebiishi.

When you encounter the Kebiishi for the first time, Konnosuke will appear to give you a tutorial.

The Kebiishi will only appear at the conclusion of a normal battle when traveling with a team containing at least one sword that is Lv. 10 or above.

The Kebiishi are much more formidable enemies than the ones previously encountered, but fighting them grants the perfect opportunity to obtain the new swords Nagasone Kotetsu and Urashima Kotetsu! It is also possible to obtain other swords from defeating the Kebiishi.

The strength and level of the Kebiishi that you encounter will be based only on the Lv. of the highest-leveled sword in your party. Therefore, battles will be more in the player's favor if the level differences between your swords is low.

For example:

Team A contains swords that are Lv40, Lv43, Lv42, Lv40, Lv38, and Lv44. →A Kebiishi will appear that is matched to the strength of the Lv44 sword.

Team B contains swords that are Lv23, Lv83, Lv12, Lv10, Lv18, and Lv14. →A Kebiishi will appear that is matched to the strength of the Lv83 sword.

※Please note that if you encounter the Kebiishi in a map in which your team is beyond the level cap for gaining experience points, you will not receive any drops or experience points from defeating the Kebiishi.

The probability of obtaining Nagasone Kotetsu and Urashima Kotetsu is higher if the player achieves a higher battle ranking after defeating the Kebiishi.
