A flash of silver sword light split the wolf-like exotic beast charging from the sky into two.
Blood splattered onto the cheeks of the people around.
"Leader."
Linda, standing beside He Ao, handed him a long black iron box.
The fresh red blood splattered on her somewhat weak and beautiful cheeks was like a rose swaying in a stormy night.
"Hmm."
He Ao sheathed his short sword and took the iron box, which contained the weapon he had specifically requested.
"Mu——"
Just as He Ao took the iron box, a huge roar penetrated his brain.
He looked up to see, beyond the open city gates in the dark curtain of rain, a hazy creature tens of meters tall with the shape of a seahorse standing erect and four legs below, slowly approaching the gates.
The creature's roar had inexplicably caused a hint of panic in He Ao's heart, and in the streets around him, the crowd was already in chaos due to the exotic beast entering the city, now even more so.
