I was thinking the same thing. The way Eliezer wrote that bit seemed to make it clear that something rather more than mere decapitation occurred there.
Hm, so it does. Well, if Hirou had no way of knowing that, then it's manslaughter at worst.
Though, actually spelling it out directly does end up sounding funny. "Well... I don't know that cutting off his head with this sword would kill him... I mean, is it really reasonable for me to have expected that?" :)
(Actually, I thought I'd deleted the "ceased to exist" phrase. I'll go ahead and take it out.)
