Chapter Vol 2 18: the edge of justice

"yes!"

Historia nodded: "I...I want to live for myself! Not for other people, but for myself, to live with them, especially... especially Ymir! If you can , I think not through books, but to truly know her in reality!"

Wow -!

Keith Shadis pushed away the chair and stood up, looked at Historia and said, "Have you really thought about it!?"

"yes-"

"Then—!" Keith Shadis yelled angrily: "If you join the training regiment, don't expect me to treat you like a queen! You are just an ordinary soldier, undergoing the same training as everyone else— Deadly training... no, it might even be more stringent."

"Goo—"

Swallowing a mouthful of spit, Historia said again: "Yes! I want... I want to become a trainee of the 104th class!"

"Very well, so be it, I agree."

"Humph..."

Darius Zachary smiled at the side: "Not bad, you are not as incompetent as other people, if someone like you is sitting on the king's seat, old man, I don't have to think about coup d'état gone."

Erwin just watched quietly at this time, without saying anything...

Although he said a few ideas before, but...all of them were not the real thoughts in his heart, but...he didn't want to say that thought for the time being.

【Once upon a time, we all believed in justice. But later, I discovered that you have your justice, and I have mine. At the end of the day, we all slide to the brink of injustice. 】

Allen's actions in the comics are a little abnormal...why did he raid Marais?

There is not a clear description in the manga, but... he can also guess a general idea.

What if... it's because of a partner in the wall... For example, Historia.

This is not impossible.

Alan has always been a partner who wants to protect himself, wants to be free, and fights for it...

After the armored giant and the ape giant retreated, peace was restored within the wall, so...something must have happened during this time to make things change.

And Reiner... At the beginning, he was just a person who wanted to respond to his mother's expectations and wanted to save the world. Then he played the lost role and became a reliable big brother, but... this kind of him is equivalent to killing hundreds of thousands of people with his own hands.

In particular, the matter of breaking through the wall was his own proposition when Bertolt and Ani were planning to go back.

Before, when he learned that the 250,000 residents were going to die outside the wall... What was he thinking in his heart? In the end...how much desperation has arisen.

It is precisely because of this that he fell into despair, and even became schizophrenic afterwards... The soldiers who protect the wall, and the soldiers who destroy the wall...

The roots of this schizophrenia were already present.

This world is cruel...and he, Erwin's actions are in the style of a demon...everything is built on the high mountain of corpses.

If in the future, it is necessary to do this to allow human beings to have a future and to allow the Eldians to survive in this world, Erwin doesn't mind continuing.

But... is this really okay?

This kind of thing... can it really be done?

Compared with him, does the world need other talents to move towards peace...for example...

Elmin.

"Erwin, what are you thinking?"

"Well... no, it's okay." Erwin raised his head, it's too early to think about it now, and Ermin hasn't matured yet, and even... probably there is no possibility of becoming mature at all, Before that, he had to use his own method, use his own means, to let them see the sea—

At this moment, even if their relationship seems to be very harmonious, but—

Cracks have already appeared.

Unlike before when facing giants, when everyone was united, although at that time a lot of losses were lost, but...everyone was heading for the same goal, toward the future of mankind—except for himself.

And now—everyone is looking at the direction they want to go.

If it is not dealt with properly, before the arrival of the Marais, the inside of the wall will fall apart.

Even if the number of human beings is less than a million...the battle still exists, even if there are only two people.

unless...

The number of humans is reduced to less than one.

Because...even if there is only one person left, only himself...the struggle in his heart has never stopped.

At that time, King Fritz was facing the same situation, maybe it might be even worse, so...he was disappointed with the world and human beings and couldn't find a solution, so he chose to escape.

fled to the high wall. I chose the death that I don't know when it will come, and enjoy this moment of tranquility.

But... soon he was disappointed again.

Because, even if there are only so few people, nothing will change.

【Forgive me, forgive me who still can't create a paradise in this narrow world with high walls...】

Recalling the words of King Fritz...He suddenly had an impulse...

Let Historia eat Allen and become that King Fritz... What kind of words will he say...



"Too bad, there's a coup d'état inside the wall, so Ani's previous investigation results will be wasted." Reiner gritted his teeth and said.

Originally, in the plot of the comics, it took Ani nearly two years to find out that King Reyce on the throne was a fake, and he had already hidden it.

At this time, Erwin and the others were very wary of Ani and the others.

In a year's time, Arnie's investigation results were very few, and now—

A coup d'état destroyed all the original investigation results. There were some suspicions, and all the people who wanted to follow up the investigation had already been imprisoned.

"More than a year has passed..." Ani sighed: "Then, that means we only have about ten years left, and you have to waste all these ten years here Reiner?"

"No, there is another way—join the training regiment and become a military policeman! This way, you will be able to get close to the central royal government, know the specific situation inside the wall, and... the location of the ancestor giant!"
