Bertholdt stopped talking, he was having a hard time communicating directly with his friend, Connie gritted his teeth and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Bertholdt, was that titan in my house my mother?"
Bertholdt looked at his friend and didn't know how to respond, if right now he kept talking, his words would be too cruel for Connie to process.
Everyone on the wall didn't know what to say, it was certain that somehow those people in the town were turned into titans, how would one explain the existence of titans inside the Rose wall if there was no opening?
Connie's heart suddenly pressed down. Although he's not smart, he's not dumb either. His body trembled with anger, "No, this can't be true. How can a person become a titan so suddenly? What about the other people in the village?"
Speaking of this, this naive child was about to collapse, "What about my father, my younger brothers, did they also become titans? Was it made by that titan with hair on his body?"
Reiner closed his eyes, he could not give Connie a satisfactory answer and Bertholdt said nothing.
Connie shouted out loud, "They are dead, the titans that attacked the castle were killed. If they knew, why did you save me? I'd rather be dead!"
Connie knelt on the ground, hugged his head and burst into tears. He seemed to think of something again and suddenly became emotional: "By the way, my mother is still there, she's still alive, can she change back?"
As if catching the last ray of hope, he stood up quickly, as if he wanted to run to the bottom of the city wall. Moblit Berner on the side had a quick reaction and hugged Connie.
"Reiner, Bertholdt ... Please tell me if there is a way."
There was no answer.
Eren and Mikasa looked at Connie, still processing what had happened. No one had the heart to stop that boy from screaming.
Takashi who had taken off his clothes on his upper body, this time he didn't want to do anything else, today he had given everything without expecting anything in return, but hearing Connie's words he felt a shiver run through his whole body.
With a dazed look, Takashi looked at his hands. If all those people were turned into titans, he was the one who killed....
"We didn't know anything, we were just doing our duty..."
After saying that, Bertholdt turned his gaze to Eren and forced himself to think calmly before persuading, "Eren, you are a witness to this world."
"If you don't want to experience these things again, if you don't want to see people flee their homes, come with us and we will never return to this place again."
Due to Connie's affair, Eren was a bit distracted and Hange Zoe was relatively calm, "It's not that we can't negotiate, but you can't get something without paying the price."
"You can see that destroying all of humanity is not your original goal, so what is your true purpose and who sent you?"
Hange Zoe also added, "Let's talk about everything together, there can be a lot of misunderstandings between us, only then can we understand each other, don't you think so?"
"I have never understood why you people want to destroy the wall, this should not be your original intention from the beginning, why then did you infiltrate all the way to the Sina wall?"
"Because you are the descendants of demons, we are here to..." Bertholdt stopped suddenly and said no more, he could not and dared not reveal too much.
He and Reiner were just tools, and had no say in the matter of negotiation, and he didn't dare to reveal Marley's information.
No matter how Armin and Hange Zoe tried to persuade, Bertholdt and Annie remained silent and everything came to a stalemate. In the final analysis, the intelligence of the two sides was not equal, now the one who had the most information and is afraid to reveal too much.
In a secluded place in the city wall, Takashi remained silent, with a half smile on his face. His mentality was now very turbulent.
His eyes did not leave his hands.
"Takashi, what's wrong with you?" Christa asked quietly.
Takashi showed a slight smile and said, "I killed many titans and I did it in anger. Although I couldn't express it, I was glad to kill them all. I made contributions to the Survey Corps, as an excellent soldier."
"Still, I just found out just now that I might have killed people all this time."
"Takashi, it's not your fault the Titans can't communicate." Christa tried to comfort him.
"Yeah, they're all mentally retarded, they can't communicate, there's no need for me to feel that way..."
Takashi spoke to himself, he looked at Connie on the ground and then looked at Ymir, "You all have seen how I killed those titans so violently, I really felt furious."
After saying that, Takashi flashed a very distorted smile, "Those titans are probably from Connie's hometown, his parents and siblings, neighbors and friends.... This world is hell, how could I have ended up here?"
Maybe people around his may not understand her words, but so far her mentality and way of looking at this world has totally changed. From a hero who wanted to make a change to this world, to a hero furious with the people he wanted to protect and now a person who only seeks to vent his anger against his enemies.
Without Takashi realizing it, this world has completely absorbed him in its plot and feelings, now he could not be a character more in this wall, he is now one more victim of suffering.
Christa was silent, Ymir sighed and covered her forehead with her hand. She felt that Takashi was going crazy and could contain an idiocy at any moment.
Takashi was about to lose his sanity, but he took a deep breath as he thought of all his possibilities.
"Yes Kenny, I want to learn the secrets of the titans and reform the government of these walls, those bastards will pay in blood for everything they have kept from us." Takashi thought with a cold smile.
Even being a human, there was no turning back now, he had to sink his hands deeper into the blood if he wanted to make this all worth it.
"Hahaha." A loud laugh interrupted the meaningless communication between the idiot Armin, Reiner, Bertholdt and Hange Zoe who was just trying to get extra information.
Everyone was stunned, now Takashi doesn't care about everyone's reaction. He kept smiling and walked slowly to the edge of the wall. Ignoring the pain, Takashi looked at Reiner and Bertholdt.
Under everyone's gaze, he couldn't help but open his arms full of burn marks and shouted: "Reiner, Bertholdt, my former friends. Sharpen your spears, prepare your strategies because I am alive. Wait for the moment when you see me coming to you, because it will be at that moment... I will destroy everything they have and your people."
"Still I am curious, in whose name do you people have the right to kill people? Justice or freedom? Hate or save your deplorable life?"
"I know the plan is to eradicate the descendants of demons, eradicate the supposed evil and maintain world peace in this world."
Ignoring the puzzled expressions of Eren, Armin, Hange Zoe and Christa, Takashi sneered spitefully.
Ymir looked at Takashi and understood how he was going to act, it seems he has made up his mind and she was ready too
Looking at Reiner and Bertholdt, "Prepare all the power you have in your hands, if even that white titan couldn't defeat me, just wait for me to reach your gates, I have a purpose and that is to defend the people inside these walls, we will see who is left standing in the end."
Looking at Bertholdt's pale face he shook his head, "You don't look like you want to negotiate and honestly neither do I, you can't lie to yourself Bertholdt, they have lost and they are desperate."
"It's okay, you have your own difficulties, I told Annie so before I cut off her head, poor girl, I weep with regret at the end of her death."
The cold, merciless words shattered the last trace of illusory fantasy within Reiner and Bertholdt.
Bertholdt, red-eyed, remained silent, looked deeply at the people on the wall and fastened his grip on the armored titan's neck.
"I will kill them, kill, kill, kill, kill, I will kill them all." Bertholdt muttered, digging his nails into his skin.
The armored titan carried the dazed Bertholdt away to the far side of the Maria wall.
Exhausted physically and mentally, they planned to meet with the beast titan Zeke and tell him that they found the subject and also there was a very powerful anomaly in the enemy ranks, if they want to win they need to fight together.
The sky was at its highest and the clouds were light, the wind was blowing. Everyone on the wall had different thoughts and watched them go.
The Survey Corps' existing means couldn't do anything to the armored titan, and Takashi, the only one who could break through its defenses was seriously injured rescuing Eren.
However, if Takashi wanted Reiner and Bertholdt to stay in this place they had no chance to flee. Still, once all the intelligent titans are together, Takashi will make sure to bury them in the same place.
