When Eren woke up, his face was wet, and he thought it was rain dripping down his face, but he soon realized that it wasn't. The water slipped into his mouth, salty and astringent, and he struggled to open his eyes to see Peria's slightly trembling shoulders, tears rolling down the corners of her eyes.

He wanted to ask what had happened, but the moment he spoke, he remembered what had happened before, Bella, the villagers who had fallen one after another, and the villages that had been destroyed. Then the open mouth froze there, and it was only after ten seconds that Peria realized that he had woken up.

"Alan. Peria hurriedly wiped away her tears and smiled at Alan, "You, it's okay." ”

Alan had never seen such an ugly Peria. In his mind, Peria had always been a little princess on top, and now she was like a stinky girl who had fallen into the mire. He lowered his head a little, and Peria immediately panicked, trying to cover his legs with the hem of his skirt, but he didn't have time, so Alan saw that under the beautiful skirt, it was now empty.

"No, don't worry. Peria forced a smile, "Mr. Greg has already taken care of it for me, and he said that the wound will not be infected, so it will not be life-threatening. Anyway, if you can survive, even if you don't have legs, it doesn't matter-"

Peria's voice grew quieter, slowly turning to low sobs, and at last she finally broke down, lying on his shoulder and wailing. Alan wanted to say something to comfort her, but he didn't know what to say, and in the end he just took Peria into his arms and let her tears wet his tattered clothes.

......

When Alan stood in front of Greg again, Greg could no longer see the despair and fear in the former's eyes, but instead had a kind of determination. Greg glanced at him, lowered his head, and continued what he had done before—cutting branches into sharp arrows with a dagger.

"I want to know how to defeat that monster. ”

"That's not a monster, that's a dragon. Greg said without raising his head, "It's the dragon you didn't want to believe in before." ”

"Now that I believe it, please tell me how to defeat that dragon. Alan was very persistent, "You must have a way, I know you are not an ordinary person." ”

Greg didn't answer and went on with his work. He had already cut dozens of them, three of them tied up, and placed them neatly at his feet. This is the most primitive weapon, the hunters of a thousand years ago did not have sharp iron tools and powerful alchemy weapons, if you want to fight against dragons, you must use this extremely primitive weapon, with blood and experience, in exchange for the success of hunting again and again.

Seeing that Greg didn't speak, Alan couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart, if he could, he would like to kill the dragon now and avenge his mother and sister. But he couldn't, the dragon was not something that humans could defeat, no matter how you looked at it. But subconsciously, Alan felt that Greg had a way to kill the dragon, after all, before that, he was the only one who dared to stand in front of the dragon.

"You can't do it now. Greg said slowly, "It's just a death." ”

Alan's heart sank at first, but he soon realized that there was something in Greg's words. He said that he can't do it now, but that doesn't mean he can't do it in the future! That is to say, it is not impossible to kill the dragon!

"What should I do?!" Alan asked anxiously.

"Go to the imperial capital. Greg said, "Let's survive first." ”

"Survive?" Alan was stunned.

"I'm not talking about today, tomorrow, this year or next year. Greg raised his head and stared at Eren with deep eyes, "If you want to kill that guy, you have to make yourself strong, and this process will be a long process, five, ten, or twenty years, no one can say." ”

Alan was stunned, as if he was blocked by something: "Is there no other way? I want to kill it, I want to kill it more than anyone else." ”

"You want to kill it, not be killed by it, you have to learn to be patient. Greg said coldly, "If you can't even endure it, then live well and stop thinking about killing it." ”

Alan clenched his fists tightly, and Greg's words were like an arrow piercing him into the heart. He was tempted to grab Greg by the collar and ask him if he understood his feelings, and if he understood what it was like to lose a loved one.

"Look at that girl, her name seems to be Peria. Greg said suddenly.

Alan was stunned.

"She, like you, has lost her loved ones and both legs. "But she's always been strong, you know why?"

Alan looked dazed and subconsciously shook his head.

"Because she sees you're on the verge of collapse. Greg said coldly, "Under this kind of disaster, there will always be people who collapse, and there will always be people who despair, but collapse and despair cannot change anything, they can only make the people who have already experienced disasters more and more brittle, and finally become vulnerable." She is afraid that you will become like that, so she keeps comforting you, and she hopes that the boy who saved her life can survive strongly. ”

Greg paused, then continued, "So, her heart is much stronger than that. If she had been a man, if she hadn't lost her legs, I'm sure she would have killed the dragon in the end, not you, the fragile creature. ”

Greg's words were like salt sprinkled on Allen's wounds, and he gritted his teeth tightly, and his whole body trembled.

"Girls tend to mature earlier than boys. Greg's tone suddenly sent some, "But some things still have to be done by men after all, you go to the imperial capital, take that girl, and find a guy named Ian, who is older than you." ”

Alan was stunned, not understanding what Greg meant.

"You want to kill that dragon, I can't help you, but that guy can. Greg spoke slowly, "The reason I'm saying so much to you is because you're like him. It's just that his life is much more miserable than miserable, but now, you have experienced the same pain as him, and you may be able to become a hunter like him. Of course, you may have to pay more than he has—"

Greg stopped abruptly in the middle of speaking, and he stood up and stared into the distance. After a few seconds, the earth began to tremble, everyone's faces changed, and fear once again welled up in people's hearts.

"Go find him. Greg tossed his dagger to Alan, "I entrust you to him, just as Karan entrusted him to me." ”
