So I defeated Garl Vinland and Maiden Astrea last night and went back to fight the black phantom version. I used poison cloud, but tried to go in to attack him before he could heal and promptly died. Now he's not there any more even though I was in soul form and shouldn't have lost world tendency. Does he disappear if you fail to kill him the first time, or did he die via my last poison cloud while it was telling me I was dead and I can't get his stuff for Selen any more?
