Chapter 107: Seeing is not necessarily believing

Doyle didn't speak, she didn't know what tone and gesture to answer Char's words.

Char obviously didn't mean to talk to her more, but asked Sebas.

"What do you think this is?"

Sebas stared at the Headless Horseman with a slightly solemn expression.

Arthur's swordsmanship was superb, and his strength was on par with that of the Headless Horseman, and the Headless Horseman was obviously better at horse fighting, which was a disadvantage.

However, even if Arthur slashed many of the Headless Horseman's swords, and the sharpness of the longsword broke through the armor's defenses, the Headless Horseman still didn't notice it.

It's like having an immortal body.

In other words, the Headless Horseman didn't deliberately defend at all, all of them were killing moves that ended up with a big contract, and Arthur could still suppress it with skill at the beginning.

But with the consumption of physical strength, Arthur gradually fell behind.

Seeing this, the surrounding Assassins also rushed to help.

"This doesn't seem to be any ordinary wraith." Sebas muttered softly, "Perhaps, it's because of the beliefs brought about by the legends of the place that make it a special existence. ”

"What else?" Char said.

"And?" Sebas was stunned for a moment, and he looked at the Headless Horseman with a slight frown.

Char didn't mean to continue playing dumb riddles, but continued, "I felt a breath of death in his body. ”

"Death." Sebas's pupils contracted slightly, "You mean, it's also the Grim Reaper?" ”

After a pause, Sebas thoughtfully, "There is also a possibility that this kind of thing will be absorbed by the Hades, after all, the Hades is indeed short of people.

But if it's the Grim Reaper, why break the rules of Hades and harvest souls at will?

Moreover, the process of the Grim Reaper's harvesting of souls is not visible to mortals. ”

"Perhaps, it's been controlled?" Isabel in Char's arms spoke.

Char looked down at her.

"The legend of the Headless Horseman is also found in Britannia." Isabel said, "His head occupies a very large proportion in the legend. ”

Sebas nodded thoughtfully, "Like this kind of resentful spirit, the missing part will affect the integrity of the soul.

It's something that's important to them.

If someone obtains his head, it is indeed possible to control him through this. ”

He thought for a moment, "Could it be the guy named Baker, I think he's suspicious, motivated, and most importantly, the Headless Horseman killed his rival, but he didn't kill him." ”

Char didn't say anything, just quietly watched Arthur who was fighting with the Headless Horseman.

His swordsmanship routines have been almost memorized, but there is still a lack of real actual combat, this headless horseman's combat power is not strong, and he does not have any special strength, so it is very suitable to be his opponent.

Sebas also seemed to understand what Char meant, and he didn't get involved, but turned his head to look at the woman named Marlene.

She was kneeling in front of the headless corpse and weeping bitterly.

However, Char noticed that she was skimming this way out of the corner of her eye, apparently acting for them.

Sebas didn't know if he saw it, but he walked straight to Marlene, and out of nowhere, he pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to her.

Marlene was stunned for a moment, but still took the paper, said thank you delicately, and then raised her head to look at Sebas.

The more she looked at it, the brighter her eyes became.

I don't know if there were certain requirements for the appearance of the god of death when the underworld received the god of death.

But at least Char's Grim Reaper is not bad, and so is Sebas, and it should be very in line with the aesthetics of Europeans, at least much better than the one who died on the ground.

And perhaps to attract customers, he is generally very well dressed.

Beneath the cloak was a suit that only the upper class would wear, and Marlene had apparently noticed this, and almost instantly, she had a definition of the foreigner in front of her.

Handsome, rich, and of high social status.

Her eyes lit up, and the next moment, tears welled up from her eyes again, and she hugged the corpse and sobbed.

"Woolf, why did you die?

Obviously, we just got married.

What should I do if I die? ”

Tears slid down her cheeks, and the crying pear blossoms brought rain to people's hearts.

This kind of weak and helpless tears is most likely to arouse men's desire to protect, and Ma Lin has used this trick to attract many men, and she has tried it repeatedly.

"Condolences."

Sebas said with a heavy face, "In life, you always have to experience death.

At least, in his short life, he had a beautiful lady like you, and his life was complete. ”

"But. . . But. Marlene's eyes were red, and her tone was a little choked.

"That's what fate is." "But his death is only a physical death, and all the memories of your time with him will not fade."

As long as you remember him, he will live forever in your heart. ”

She looked at Sebas with a sadness in her eyes and a little bit of brilliance.

"Thank you, you are such a kind gentleman."

Sebas smiled softly, "It's okay, if only I could help you." ”

Ma Lin looked at the corpse on the side, her teary eyes showing a little confusion and helplessness, "But. . . I'll be later. What should I do? ”

"You can leave the rest to me." Sebas whispered to the side.

The corners of Marlene's mouth raised an imperceptible arc, an expression of a prey hooked.

This guy is really good at fishing, it's easier than the past ones, Ma Lin thought to herself.

Next, it's time to lift the rod.

She turned her head and looked at Sebas with misty eyes.

But then, a business card obscured her view.

???

Marlene took the business card with a puzzled look and looked at it, British Island and Britannia both speak the same language, so there is nothing to understand without reading.

It reads:

【Talos Funeral Service Shop】

[Business scope: coffins, urns, mortuary plastic surgery, funeral customization. 】

[Address: 122C Cole Street]

【Sebas Tiatit】

Mourning. Funeral services?

Ma Lin didn't react for a while.

"You can entrust me with everything that happens to him."

Sebas said with a sincere smile, "I also have a certain understanding of the funeral culture in Britain, and I will definitely handle it for you, so that their last journey is dignified and meaningful."

In the past, my business was mainly in the royal capital of Britannia, where many upper-class people were my customers and gave me a lot of good reviews.

Recently I want to expand my business to Europe, and you will be my first customer. ”

Sebas smiled shyly.

"In the future, if you have the rest of your lovers to have a funeral.

I can give you half price for the second set. ”

Char also walked over and handed Ma Lin a business card she had made with a smile.

"You can also consider coming to me for drinks or flowers for the funeral."

Now the tavern is not open, and I can't sit back and eat, and I always have to find some side jobs.

Sebas looked at Char, and he smiled helplessly, "Mr. Char, you can come to me directly, I'm actually looking for a supplier of drinks and flowers." ”

Char's eyes lit up, "We can work together." ”

"Of course, I don't want to make a profit in this regard." Sebas laughed.

Look at the two men who completely ignore themselves.

Marlene, who had recovered from her stupor, felt a sense of humiliation that she had never felt before, and she pursed her lips, the anger burning in her heart.

At this time, the headless horseman on one side seemed to have discovered something, broke free from Arthur's sword, walked straight towards Char, and swung his blade at Char from top to bottom.

"Bell!"

Under Ma Lin's slightly widened eyes, with a crisp sound, the blade of the Headless Horsemann seemed to hit a wall made of air, and it stood still in mid-air, unable to move at all.

But even so, the Headless Horseman didn't give up, and kept slashing at the wall.

Seeing this, Hoover's eyes flashed with a momentary glimmer, clutching his chest, staggering over from the side, looking at Marin and saying bluntly.

"Hand over his head, Marlene Fassi."

Marlene came back to her senses and looked at Hoover with a confused expression, "What do you mean?" ”

"You hid the Headless Horseman's head and controlled him to kill, right?" Hoover said.

"We've been investigating you for the past few days, and we've been staring at you for days.

You are a foreigner who has obtained a large inheritance by cheating on marriage outside.

The person who was beheaded by the Headless Horsemann not long ago should be your ex-husband.

Your name may change, but your appearance will not change.

You lure rich men into marrying you with your beauty, and then you send headless horsemen to kill your husbands.

Is it right to legally acquire the property of those rich people by inheriting an inheritance?

You and Baker happen to have a tryst near the Forbidden Forest, and your newly married husband happens to be there.

The Headless Horseman also appeared at this moment and killed your husband.

There are not so many coincidences in this world.

Do you think that people here are stupid? ”

Hoover looked at Sebas, "You guessed that, so I came here to test her." ”

"Try to explore?"

Sebas, who came to his senses, touched the back of his head and smiled slightly awkwardly.

"Yes. It is indeed for the sake of temptation. ”

He looked at Marlene, his eyes sharp.

"Don't you tell the truth?"

"You alone will never be able to get the head of the Headless Horseman." Hoover stared at Marlene, "Tell me what exists behind your back, and I can consider letting you go." ”

Ma Lin seemed to be a little anxious, "It's really not me!" ”

Sebas frowned, "You still don't say it?" ”

"Perhaps. Not her. ”

Char muttered softly as he looked at the Headless Horseman, who was still attacking the surrounding barrier with his blade.

The mist surrounded it, making it even more hazy.

Hoover frowned, "It's all so obvious, what's there to be suspicious?" ”

"Sebas." Char said quietly, "Have you checked the Book of the Dead, that Woolf, is he dead today?" ”

Sebas seemed to have thought of something, raised his hand, and the Book of the Dead appeared in his hand, and quickly began to look up Woolf's name.

Soon there was a result in the Book of the Dead, which reads.

[Woolf, died today at the hands of Baker Hamas, cause of death: suffocation.] 】

Sebas's pupils constricted slightly, and he looked at the Headless Horsemann.

"So, he did die today, right?" Char's eyes lit up, "Assuming he's the Grim Reaper, he should indeed be here to harvest his soul." ”

"But." Sebas still felt that something was wrong, "This is not in accordance with the rules, even if this human died today, this knight should not have killed him directly in public." ”

"Perhaps, we were all wrong." Char muttered softly.

"What do you mean?" Sebas frowned.

The people around were a little confused.

"Have you ever thought about another possibility, it was not the Headless Horseman who came to kill Woolf, but Woolf's death, which attracted the Headless Horseman."

Hoover seemed to understand something, and couldn't help but say, "But we all saw it!" ”

The corners of Char's mouth raised in an imperceptible arc.

"Seeing is not necessarily believing."
