Chapter 3: " Experiences "
2 years have passed, and who would have thought? I was able to survive this monstrous place.
I've learned the most important rules in surviving this place. There are 3 main rules.
" Rule number 1. Eat less food. Since food supply will run low at any moment. Rule number 2. Cardio, And the most important rule. Rule number 3. Never give up. " following these 3 rules have kept me alive for the past 2 years.
Right now I was busy running. Through those 2 years, Shiganshina has been a training ground for me to hasten my skills. endurance, stamina, strength , flexibility , amd knowledge are the things that I've strongly developed through out those ' 2 years ' I mean who would have thought that me. A child kept away from society would be able to survive in such an environment.
My weapons have changed. From a knife to a sword. I found it in a random house. Probably owned by one of the ' Recon Corps ' And this sword has been grazed by blood alot of times now.
I turned to the corner to see a 4 meter class titan. It may sound impossible But I've survived a titan's attempt to eat me. And after that experience, I have been stronger since then, And because of that. I've been able to kill the 3-4 class meter titans. But it takes a lot of time. And actually, You'll be betting your life on it.
I've gathered tons of info about titans. Information that would be very beneficial to the organization as a whole.
I've also anylized the map of the 3 walls. It's impossible for ' now ' to head for Trost. I'm strong but not strong enough for the bigger titans. It would be life threatening to try and head for that town since all human activities in ' Wall Maria ' have been pushed to ' Wall Rose '
But I'm not staying here for the rest of my life. There's always a solution. But the question is, When will I find it.
I slowly made my way out of the titans territory. Then as I made my turn I stopped at the bridge where we( Me, Armin, Eren, Mikasa ) spent our last bonding together. And then I realized it myself. The river, Heck the river! If I'm able to cross the river succesfully. I would be able to go to Trost. But the problem is, The 15 meter class and abnormal titans lurking around near Trost.
There were already less titans here, The smaller ones. So I had no problems with that. I climbed a nearby house and stood up straight on top of the roof itself.
Hmm. If I use the a boat to cross the river, I would be able to reach Trost's sewage. Since I'm small enough. When that time comes, I'll probably fit in there.
Alright I just need to craft a bo-. " Slam! "
I looked to myside. A 4 meter class titan, Shit. Good thing I was able to dodge it's attempt to grab me. It tried to eat my head off, luckily I was able to grab my spare knife and aim it perfectly at it's eye. Judt like how I killed the other titans before.I know this action would seem like a suicidal attempt, But I've done it countless of times. And I've never been killed.
Jumping at the titans back while it was regenerating it's left blinded eye. Climbing it's hair. I I quickly crawled up to it's left eye and stabbed it more deeper. The titan exclaimed in pain, I grabbed my sword and pointed it at the base of it's neck.
" Let's see. How should I slice your flesh, Bastard? Should I do it like this. " I sliced a chunk of meat from the base of it's neck. The titan shouted ( more like roared in pain) It fell. And I was standing on top of it.
Serves you right, It dried up and slowly was blown by the wind. There in the ground was my knife.
Grabbing it. I placed it back to where it was tied unto. I was about to walk away when 2 big feet filled my vision.
No way, I thought they were gone. Infront of me was a 8 meter class titan. It was about to grab me when I ran as fast as I could. This is bad, I've never engaged in battle with a 8 meter class. As I was about to turn to the right corner. I was grabbed and lifted up by the titan.
No. It was about to put me into it's mouth, Think. Think, I can't die yet. Then I remembered rule 3. " Never give up " I opened my eyes and saw the titan face to face.
I quickly grabbed the 2 of my knives and aimed them at it's eyes. It hit it's eyes accurately, The titan let go of me. I grabbed unto it's arm and climbed up to it's face.
Stabbing the knives deeper. Blood was splashed unto my face. Good, Now it will take him more time to regenerate.
I climbed to it's neck. Grabbing my sword as fast as I can. I used both of my hands to grip the sword and soon I jumped high for more force and proceeded to slicing it's flesh.
The titan soon fell. Did I just kill a 8 meter class titan? I was still pretty shocked while picking up my knives and placing them to were they belong.
I began to walk towards the cottage I call home. Wiping my face with the titan blood splashed unto my face. I began to look at mye face in a mirror. There was still some smudges of blood on my face, But as I looked at it more. I realized something.
" I have become a killer. Not just to titans but to other humans as well who have threatened my life. " I wiped of the blood on my face. I also treated the other wounds left to me by the titans.
Sitting at the ground. I looked at my necklace, It really does shine so beautifully. It represents..., Hope.
Hope..., I should look for the crafting materials! I standed up only to be affected by a very painful thing on my back. What in the?
I looked at my back in the mirror. There was a long wound which was bleeding nonstop. When did I have this? I began to cleanse and disinfect it. After that I bandaged it tightly, I may have had scars from the past years but this is the biggest so far.
I guess I have to rest for some days.
To Be Continued...
