Bab 1568: 433 Headless Horseman and Yeager Blade

...

The figure was clad in a suit of Garcia's Armor II, seemingly drenched, with drops of black liquid dripping from the edges of the armor to the ground.

Even from such a distance,

Matthew felt as though he could hear the sound of the liquid hitting the ground of the city wall.

Headless Horseman?

He blinked.

Who knew that the next second,

the Headless Horseman would have disappeared, leaving only an old horse exuding an air of exhaustion on the wall.

The old horse was all skin and bones, chewing something in its mouth while its hooves shifted restlessly on the spot.

It seemed to sense Matthew's gaze.

The old horse also looked in his direction.

Matthew's gaze met the horse's,

He tried to understand the almost human emotions in the horse's eyes—

"Eager?"

"Expectant?"

"Or desirous?"

Matthew blinked again.

The old horse too had vanished.

It was as if what he had just seen was merely an illusion!

"Did you guys just see something on the city wall?"
