Chapter 444 Alan, the Scumbag
Time passed quietly.
Alan's consciousness gradually returned to his body.
He lowered his head, his eyes flickering. He looked at Wu Guang with a complicated expression. He wanted to ask who Wu Guang was and whether he was...that group of people.
But he was afraid to speak.
He was afraid that the answer he would get would be unacceptable to him.
That's when he had a conflicted expression.
Krista also exited the state of memory recall.
"So that's how it is? No wonder I saw those memories before. It turns out..." Krista's tone was not troubled, but rather filled with joy.
"Thank you.."
"It's okay, this is the promise I made to you."
"Promise?" Alan wondered.
At this time, the two of them also looked at Allen.
Krista had a strange expression on her face, but Wu Guang remained the same as always.
This made Alan very confused.
As a result, Krista walked up to him, put a hand on Allen's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Scumbag."
"???"
Allen looked confused. How could he be called a scumbag? What was wrong with me? Who did I scumbag?
"Krista?"
"Humph!"
"???"
Wu Guang coughed twice and said, "It's almost time for us to go out."
"Yeah." Krista agreed happily.
But Alan was a little bored. At this moment, he still had many doubts that had not been solved. After all, his memory fragments only stayed at the time when his brother reported his father, and then his father inherited the Attack on Titan and came outside the wall.
After that it was gone.
He was very concerned about what happened to his brother.
Has Alan already met Zeke?
It's true, but Zeke when he was a child is completely different from him now with a big beard. He didn't recognize him at all, and it was only a brief meeting.
But he looked at Wu Guang.
Finally, he managed to say, "Can I go see what my father looks like when he gets here?"
Wu Guang looked at Alan now, he was still very young at this moment.
"Now is not the time."
"Is that so..." Alan looked at Wu Guang and finally nodded.
He chose to believe the other party and no longer wanted to see betrayal, even if it was just fake now.
……
The three of them were in a daze for a moment, and then they returned to the basement again.
Alan looked at his intact arm with a very surprised expression, but then he felt it was natural.
"So it seems like a moment has passed."
Krista looked down at her father Rod, who was rubbing his arm.
At this moment her eyes were full of pity.
She had seen the future and understood the other person's current miserable situation and what would happen in the future.
She walked step by step to the bottom of the platform.
At this moment, Rhodes looked at his biological daughter with a vigilant look.
His expression was both complicated and desperate.
"Father."
"I don't have a daughter like you. Do you know what you just did? You!!"
But before he could finish, Krista just bowed respectfully.
"I don't want to become the Founding Titan, because then I will become something my sister doesn't want to see."
In the future, she has seen everything and naturally the influence of memory erasure has been lifted. Now she remembers why she is so unpopular but has become such a personality. It's all because of Frieda, the previous founding Titan and the sister who was eaten by Eren's father.
Although she was very sad after learning all this, perhaps this was a relief for Sister Frieda.
Cursed by the non-war pact, she almost lost all her thoughts. Whenever she had the slightest thought of crossing the line, she was no longer herself.
To put it bluntly, once the non-war pact was triggered, she could only watch herself become no longer like herself, and even feel painful and helpless because of her own thoughts.
And finally, become numb and choose to accept it.
Rebellion? Like Wu Guang? However, the Founding Titan transformed by the 145th King did not have the ability to enter the road on its own, which does not mean that the Founding Titan was castrated.
But once she tried to do so, it would trigger the non-war contract and she would give up entering.
This is a vicious circle. As long as it is the Founding Titan, it will never be able to reach the road alone.
Even if she is triggered to reach the road by other giants, the curse of the no-war contract will be triggered, forcing her to choose not to lift the curse, and Ymir in the road will only obey the choice of the royal family.
It can be said that this is an unsolvable cycle.
"You saw Frieda?! You..."
"Father, you probably don't know this, but Sister Frieda has known about my existence for a long time, but she has kept it a secret from everyone, including me."
"Is that so..." Rhodes lowered his head, looking a little lonely.
Once upon a time, he and his brother, Uri, inherited the Founding Titan with the idea of expelling all the Titans on the island.
The one who finally passed the test was his brother Uli, and he started to go crazy as he watched his brother become like that.
In the morning, he was ordered to forbid him from talking about expelling all the giants from the island, and at night he cried and said sorry to him.
That was the first year when my brother switched back and forth between madness and extreme calmness.
Even in the second year, he remained in that state, and it was not until the fifth year that it gradually eased.
At that time, my brother was no longer crazy, nor was he calm. He was more frustrated and desperate, although he soon became absolutely calm again.
It was also at that time that Rod knew that he was destined to not be able to inherit the Founding Titan.
If I inherit, I will become like my brother Uli and no longer be myself.
It was also at that time that he began to drink to relieve his sorrow, and then found Historia's mother to relieve his depression.
At the same time, he also changed. He was no longer hostile to the giants on the island, but let them be. He was no longer full of exploration of the outside world.
The effect was seen. Although his daughter Frieda was in pain, she was able to maintain her composure most of the time. Only in very rare cases did she become mentally unstable.
"I'm sorry, Historia, maybe I should have woken up that night. Maybe I should have died in the disaster that night. This would have been a relief for us." Rhodes sat on the ground dejectedly, his tone extremely lonely.
"That's enough, father. From now on, you can enjoy your life as a lord within the wall. And...if possible, you can marry a wife and continue the bloodline of Reis. Also, I think you will be called Krista from now on. I like this name very much."
"?" Rhodes looked at his daughter in disbelief.
I'm hesitating here.
On the other side, Wu Guang had already untied the shackles on Allen.
At the same time, several people walked into the basement again.
Mikasa rushed towards Eren and started checking if he was injured.
"Alan, are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere? Did they abuse you?"
