"Ian, here's next week's schedule, tomorrow night, send the hostess to town." The butler handed Ian a chart with the time on it.

"Yes, sir." Ian put the watch away, took out a notebook and handed it over, "Sir, this is last week's homework, you can see if there are any mistakes." ”

The housekeeper nodded, opened the notes and flipped through them casually: "It's perfect, you've almost finished learning the generic words, so you don't have to go to class anymore." ”

"It's a good teacher."

"I've lived so many years, and you're one of the few kids who makes me feel gifted." The housekeeper folded the notes and handed them back: "Do a good job, I will apply to the above to make you a commoner, Lacey is a very noble surname, it is your honor to serve the Lacey family." ”

"Ian understands."

"Well, you can go." The butler nodded.

Ian bowed respectfully and walked away with the chart and notes.

This is the third month of his study of writing, and he is finally considered a teacher.

Learning a new language was not an easy task, and he worked so hard that he stood guard at night and read and wrote with the help of torches, and it was only in three months that he mastered the basic common language.

Standing under the eaves and looking at the grassland, it was already autumn, the weeds were dry, the leaves were falling, and the autumn wind was blowing on the face, a chill.

He dreamed of Asuka twice more, he deliberately recorded the time, it would take him almost a month to dream of Asuka once, and Asuka said that she had to see Ian every day.

Each meeting was very short, about ten minutes later, and I had to wake up.

He cherished this short opportunity to meet very much, and he didn't have time to explain to Asuka whether it was a dream or not, so he always took the time to ask all the questions he wanted to ask.

For example, how to make incendiary bombs and explosives, how to make explosives more powerful, what are the real burned people in the fire...

He had been preparing for his escape, and he already had a plan in mind to use the fire as a cover to leave.

The time was the night when Kenny and Lord Lacey came to slaughter the farm, leaving too early and being easily discovered, so he prepared to run to the refugee area after the hole in Maria's Wall broke.

He has carefully combed through the timeline, ten years have passed, and he can't remember too many details of the plot clearly, but the order of the major events is in his mind.

First of all, the Wall of Maria was breached by the Armored Giants and the Oversized Giants, and around the same time, Alan's father came to the territory of Reis and killed the Reis family, leaving only the Reis Lord.

After that, because he was afraid that Alan's father would find Hesteria, Lord Lacey took Kenny to the farm, Kenny originally planned to take the first step and kill all the people on the farm, leaving only Lord Lacey as an heir to inherit the ancestor, but Lord Lacey was afraid of taking this responsibility and begged Kenny to leave Heatria's life, and the rest of the insiders were basically killed, including Heatria's mother.

As Ian prepares to leave that night, he plans to set a fire, find a stand-in to die for him, and then go to the refugee area to change his face and make up a new identity.

After Maria's Wall was breached, the identity of the refugees could no longer be verified, and he could easily blend in with the refugees and have a new identification.

After that, there are many choices, he does not plan to join the army, but wants to mix in with the top of the government, grasp more power and power, and pave the way for the future "nuclear construction" plan.

As for Reiner's party, he really didn't want to have too much contact.

Human beings are a weak race in front of giants, except for dwarf giants like Levi, most of the rest of the human beings are just food for giants.

Surviving is Ian's core goal, it's too easy to die to go to the Survey Corps, he remembers that when he watched it back then, the people from the Survey Corps really died batch after batch, except for a few with the protagonist's aura, the others are basically cannon fodder.

Even Captain Erwin was dead, and he really didn't want to go to such a dangerous place.

He positioned himself as logistical support, and the battle was something like that, so let's leave it to a powerful dwarf like Levi.

In the evening, he drove his hostess to the town with ease.

The soldiers were familiar with him, and he greeted him a few times, saying that he was leaving for a while.

Ian wore his cloak and came to a small alley, in the corner, it was very noisy, there was a bar open, and when the door was opened, there was a closed smell of wine and smoke, and the drinkers were shouting loudly, and on the stage, dancers dressed very little, shaking their slender waists.

Someone was gambling, shaking the dice, dropping the chips in his hand, and his face was flushed.

Ian and the tavernkeeper made eye gestures, handed over a specially made silver coin, and walked through the back door into the basement.

There's a lot of space in the basement and it's the town's black market that sells some contraband.

Ian had come here to pick up the goods he had ordered last month, and the deposit alone cost him three gold coins.

"Your stuff." A man with a scar carved into his face handed over a tight package.

Ian opened the strip of cloth and took a look, and it was a brand-new self-hairing pistol, with a dozen projectiles wrapped in deerskin sheets.

After checking it out, Ian made sure there was nothing wrong, refilled the remaining five gold coins with the black market merchant, and hurriedly left.

The next day, he sent the hostess back to the farm.

The afternoon sun was very good, and he wanted to go to the suburbs to try whether the wheat powder he made was good or not.

He made a batch of wheat gunpowder himself, and only got a flintlock pistol today, so he could test the power.

But as he was walking on the meadow, he suddenly heard a crisp sound.

It was a slap in the face, and the hostess slapped Heatheria and looked at her daughter with disgust.

Ian could hear the words from the hostess, and she said to her own daughter, "If I had the courage to kill this guy..."

The woman looked at Heatria, who was bleeding from her nose, with great disgust, put away the book, and walked away from the pasture quickly.

Young Heatheria stood still, looking at her mother's distant back, as if at a loss.

That night, the hostess made a request to leave the farm.

She said that she had obtained the consent of her lord, and that she was going to move to the town from today.

Ian had an impression of this scene, which showed that the day when the wall of Mary was broken, it was not far away, and he felt a sense of urgency in his heart, and he worked harder to prepare, go to the town to buy maps, plan escape routes, prepare horses... These things are on the agenda.

He was careful not to have much contact with Heatheria, so as not to impress the child too much, lest he be drawn into the calamity.

It's just that... Sometimes when I see the child standing alone in the pasture, I still feel a little distressed, and I feel that she is like her previous life, so I gave her the toys from the past.

It's Ian's own toys: a swallow-shaped kite, a spinning top, and a bamboo dragonfly.

Occasionally bring her some candy, but never talk to her much.

Sometimes, Heather's sister would come to see her on the farm, she was the heir of the Ancestors, and she would play with Heather for a long time every time she came, only to erase the child's memories when she left.

Finally, eight months after Heatria arrived on the farm, in April of the following year, word spread quickly and traveled to every town.

"The Wall of Mary has been breached by giants! Special report! The Wall of Mary has been breached by giants! ”

The messenger spread the news to every town, and the undercurrent, which had been silent for a long time, finally surged...
