"Giants... Disappearing... So fast! ”

Hanji opened his mouth wide and wrote hard.

After Dina Fritz ate Yani, her body quickly changed, and steam quickly erupted from her surface, enveloping her vision.

The reaction was quite fast, and in a matter of minutes, the giant was gone.

The steam around them had not yet dissipated, but the shadows of people could be seen dimly.

Hanji trotted forward to get a closer look.

She saw a naked woman lying on the grass and turning her over, her face identical to the woman in the photo she was tucked between Grisha's notes.

You can't be wrong, this is Dinah, Grisha's wife, the royal family of the Eldians!

Hanji took off his coat and covered Dinah's body.

Hanji heard the faint voice, lowered his head, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Grisha, no matter what becomes of me, I'll find you..."

Two tears slid down Dinah's cheeks.

...

That night, Ubitea, the room of the garrison corps.

Dinah sat on a bed made of cotton, looking out the window at the stone house, her hands folded on her belly.

On the bedside table, there is a yellowed photograph of her biting her lower lip and staring at the man's face.

There was a knock at the door, and she shuddered like a frightened fawn.

"It's me, Hanji, can we come in?"

Dina patted her chest, cleared her throat, and said softly, "Please come in." ”

The door was pushed open, and Hanji and his two children entered.

"How is it feeling, Dinah, is there anything else unwell?" Hanji put the green vegetable and rice porridge he was carrying on the table and sat on the edge of the bed.

"It's much better." Dinah smiled.

"That's good." Hanji smiled: "Let me introduce you, this one is Ian, although he looks a little young, but he is actually a member of the government, very powerful, and I can only do what he instructs." ”

"This one, well... He has something to do with you. Hanji coughed and said, "His name is Alan Yeyer, you should be able to understand his last name, right?" It's the kid I told you about during the day. ”

"You're just... Grisha's son? Dinah and Alan looked at each other.

Alan didn't say anything, just nodded.

"Can you sit down a little bit, kid?" Dinah beckoned to Allen.

Alan glanced at Ian, who nodded, and Alan sat down on the edge of the bed.

Dinah reached out and hugged Eren into her arms.

"I'm sorry... Alan..."

"At that time... I can't control myself..."

She was in tears, warm tears dripping down Alan's face.

"You... Aunt Daina... Do you remember? Alan looked up at her.

"Hmm... It's like a dream... But those memories are still in my mind..."Dina wiped her tears with her sleeve: "I'm sorry... Reminds you of bad memories..."

When Dinah saw Alan, she remembered her memories of the Wall of Mary...

That day, she sees a frightened Alan, but is attracted to the woman who is pressed under the house...

"It's alright, Aunt Dinah." Alan shook his head: "That's not your fault, you're just a victim." ”

"I'm sorry..."All Dinah can do is say I'm sorry.

Eren got up from the bed and returned to Ian's side.

"Did you feel anything special just now?" Ian asked.

"Nope." Alan said, "It should be the same as you said, I have to have a firm goal to inspire that power. ”

"It's just..."Alan looked at his hand in confusion, "I don't know what I should be doing now..."

"What are you talking about? Why can't I understand? Hanji turned his head and asked, "What power?" ”

"Let Ymir grow the power of an exoskeleton during the day." Ian replied, "That's the power of the Ancestral Giants." ”

"Ancestor!" Hanji exclaimed, "What the hell is going on! Is Ellen's Giant an Ancestral Giant? ”

"No, it's not, but the power of the Ancestral Giant is indeed in his body."

Ian came to the bedside and looked into Dinah's eyes

"In order for Eren to use this power, several conditions must be met, first of all, the royal family with the power of giants, secondly, Eren must have a purpose that he wants to achieve, and finally, Eren must contact that royal family."

"Miss Dana Frieze, do you understand your situation now?"

"Hmm..."Dina was stared at by Ian a little weakly, "During the day, Captain Hanji explained to me that this is the Rossi Wall inside Palladium Island, right?" ”

"We know from Grisha's notes that you used to be in Marais, and you were active as a repressor, right?"

"Yes."

"Why, you're joining the Restorationists?"

"Because the Marais have been oppressing us Eldians, and distorting history, the ancestors of the Eldians have been using the power of giants to build houses and bridges for the benefit of the world, but the Marais have slandered our ancestors, saying that they are demons, and we Eldians have been suffering from unfair treatment, and we have not even been able to guarantee basic life or even life, so we have united."

"And Miss Dinah, what do you think of the Marais and the Restoration Faction now?"

"I... I don't know..."

Dinah's hand rests on her left shoulder, and the Restorationists will carve a mark on her body, and she is no exception, she has carved a mark on her left shoulder, but that mark has been repaired by the power of the giant.

Marlai, the Republicist...

That was already a long way off for her.

Anyone who becomes a giant, goes through such a long wandering, and then turns back into a human being, will have a sense of trance.

This is especially true for her, how to describe her mood at this time?

Her lover Grisha Yeager died, she turned into a giant in the period of activity, eating Grisha's second wife, and the lover's son, right in front of her eyes.

She felt very unreal, but such an absurd reality was in front of her, and she didn't know how to face it.

The slogans and ideals that she chanted in the past, now that she thinks about it, only makes her heart empty.

In the end, she had nothing left, and even thought that she might as well be dead, and that might be better.

"Don't you know..."Ian's eyes lowered, "Miss Daina, you should remember, when you were active as a giant, the Marais destroyed our walls, and many people were killed by the giants, although we have taken the walls back now, but if we do nothing, one day in the future, Marais will definitely fight against us, and we people are fighting to protect our homeland." ”

"Please rest well tonight, and we'll come back tomorrow."

With that, Ian saluted Dinah and left the room with Alan.

Hanji glanced at the door, picked up the hot porridge, and fed Dinah.

For days after that, Dinah did not leave the room.

Until one day, Alan saw her change her clothes and came downstairs.

With Hanji's support, she came to the market in Ubitea, looked at the lively civilians who were shopping for things, and said:

"It turns out that the Eldians can live like this."
