"No, now is not the time to relax..."
She looked up into the distance.
Annie's current distance only allowed her to vaguely see the shadow of the wall.
She still had a long way to run to the wall.
"Fortunately, Reiner's mental state is unstable."
"Zeke's Beast Titan is not a fast-moving Titan."
"As for Bertolt's Colossal Titan..."
Annie looked up into the distance but did not see the Colossal Titan.
"Hmph..."
It was another sigh of relief.
She paused for a few seconds to compose herself.
Annie turned to head towards the wall.
However, a huge commotion suddenly caught Annie's attention.
The ground in the forest occasionally trembled.
Trees in the woods constantly showed signs of breaking and collapsing.
Annie was startled.
The only Titan that could advance like a plow, disregarding the terrain, was probably Reiner.
"Damn Reiner, that guy..."
"Did he really make up his mind to catch me and bring me back to Zeke to complete the mission?"
...
Chapter 31: Fire Female Titan, Annie
Reiner's appearance brought Annie a devastating blow.
Annie, who had practiced combat techniques since childhood, would indeed have an advantage over Reiner in a one-on-one fight as humans.
However, as a female, Annie's stamina was not as good as the strong Reiner's.
Coupled with the physical exertion from running all the way and the arrival of the Cart Titan.
Facing the hard-bodied Armored Titan, the Female Titan was quickly defeated.
The audience held their breath, staring at the screen with solemn expressions.
Annie, with her strong will to survive, covered her neck with both hands.
Seeing this, Zeke ordered the Cart Titan to slowly tear at her flesh, intending to completely shred the Female Titan.
[Viewing Chat Room]
Hu Tao: "It's over, it's over, Annie is going to be eaten too."
Ganyu: "This kind of scene is too terrifying."
What does it feel like to be eaten alive?
At least during the Archon War, Ganyu had never witnessed such a deadly event.
Especially when facing a group of grotesque and disgusting Titans slowly tearing and devouring.
Her mental state would probably collapse.
Yae Miko: "Oh!"
Kujou Sara: "Zeke is too perverted."
Zhongli: "Annie is the Female Titan among the Nine Great wisdoms, a high-end combat force of Marley. As a high-ranking military officer of Marley, Zeke will definitely reclaim her Titan power."
Kaeya: "If I were Annie, I would choose to leave the Titan's body directly and then commit suicide with a blade. Her protecting her neck with her hands now is meaningless, it's just delaying a bit of time."
Amber: "Being bitten piece by piece by the Cart Titan, this process of waiting for death is too terrifying."
Lisa: "Poor Annie's fate is even more tragic than Bertolt's. At least Bertolt was ambushed and bitten to death, so his body probably didn't have time to react."
Jean: "Alas..."
Diluc: "It's unimaginable that Reiner, who has always dragged his teammates down, could survive until the end."
Mona: "Perhaps this is what they call fate."
Barbara: "Do you think Reiner will suddenly switch personalities again and save Annie?"
Venti: "I'm sorry, kind Sister, no matter which personality Reiner's mind belongs to, Zeke is his superior, and he dares not disobey Zeke's orders."
"Why..."
"What wrong did we commit to be punished like this by the Gods?"
With Zeke and Reiner outside.
Annie, with her strength gradually depleting, had long lost any chance of victory.
All she could do was shield her position within the Titan's body, delaying the time until she was pulled out and devoured by the Cart Titan.
Up to this point, Annie still didn't understand what wrong she had committed.
To be given such a painful end by the Gods descended from Celestia.
"In the future development of the world, I eliminated members of Levi's squad."
"That's just a future event. As of now, Levi's squad members are still alive and well within the walls."
Annie felt an endless sense of grievance, and tears streamed down her cheeks.
Before, as a Marley soldier, she dared not show any slack.
The slaughter within the walls was merely her fulfilling her duty.
She eliminated Levi's squad members in the future, but similarly, as a Titan, even if she didn't kill them, they would kill her.
War, that was the war between Marley and Eldia.
She was just a machine that followed orders.
"Am I wrong?"
...
Annie kept muttering.
"No, I was never wrong."
"The world is clearly wrong."
"If there truly is a wrong among us, that person is Reiner!"
"Why, why is Reiner still alive here?"
If it weren't for all of Reiner's decisions back then, things would surely not be like this now.
Her consciousness began to waver.
The Female Titan's hands, protecting her neck, also loosened slightly.
"I know now that I was an unfit father."
"I shouldn't have taught you to be cold and ruthless."
"Annie!"
"Now I only ask one thing of you..."
"Please, no matter what happens, you must come back alive."
...
Ugh!
Annie suddenly opened her eyes.
Her pale blue pupils glowed with color again.
"Live, live..."
"No matter what, you must live..."
...
"She has given up resisting."
Zeke stared intently at Annie's hands protecting her neck.
"Hmph! It's over."
Then, he looked at the faintly visible wall in the distance.
"Gods?"
