They Are the Instructors

The girl who calls herself "Artoria" is only about 154cm tall.

She was even smaller than Captain Billy Wil.

Her appearance resembled that of a noblewoman from a medieval European court, exuding gentleness, elegance, and beauty.

However, a powerful force lies hidden within Artoria's body.

As the summoner, Mikasa deeply understood this.

Artoria held an imperceptible weapon in both hands, pointing it straight ahead.

Her eyes were sharp and resolute, and even when faced with a grotesque Giant she had never seen before, she showed no hesitation in her heart.

"Ackerman, protect these civilians first!"

Saber seems to like calling people by their surnames, and both her personal habits and speaking style have a strong Foreign Domain flair.

"Good!"

Neither of them was equipped with Vertical Maneuvering Equipment or Special Alloy Blades for Giants.

But nobody treats them as ordinary people.

Even the Survey Corps, who rushed to the scene upon hearing the news, were staring blankly at the two of them.

Their speed exceeded the limits of human comprehension.

Amidst the flickering brown and blue light, many Giants had their limbs severed, losing their ability to continue Carnage civilians.

"The weak point of these guys is the back of their necks. Only by cutting through that area can we truly eliminate them."

Not far away, Mikasa used a flame sword formed from magical energy to kill an Abnormal Titan, and then reminded Saber.

Upon hearing this, Artoria paused for a moment, then quickly regained her focus.

"A strange opponent."

The destruction of the city walls in Shiganshina District signifies the collapse of the defenses.

Two Battle Valkyrie saved countless civilians, putting them into small boats and buying precious time for a safe retreat.

But human strength has its limits, and the two girls were powerless to Rotation in the face of countless Giants.

"We must retreat."

Mikasa issued the order.

Arthur Artoria, clenched her teeth, a look of resentment appearing on her pretty face.

Many innocent civilians were Carnage by that group of aliens.

Such meaningless wars were what she detested most.

"What exactly is the king doing here?"

Artoria thought to herself that she and Mikasa had bought enough time.

But the Eldian Royal Family did not respond.

That group of people, like ostriches, buried their heads in the ground, trembling, deceiving themselves, pretending that the danger did not exist.

Time is the best medicine to heal all wounds.

But some things, as time goes by, will not be forgotten.

Chronic illnesses and ailments will not Self-Repair; they will only worsen and become impossible to ignore.

A month and a half has passed since the invasion of the Shiganshina Giant.

The refugees who fled to the inner city by boat did not receive help from the rulers; instead, they were treated as inferiors.

Hunger, thirst, cold...

The pressure to survive led them to commit theft and robbery.

This has intensified the confrontation between the two sides.

Perhaps, the Reincarnator played a role in this.

But who cares about these things?

All the refugees wanted was to survive.

They felt nothing but gratitude towards the "The Dark Lord" who had taken advantage of them, and not a trace of resentment.

If it weren't for the help of these the Dark Lords, the government probably wouldn't have cared about their lives at all.

No matter how many refugees there are, they are just a scattered mess. The addition of the Reincarnator is equivalent to giving them a backbone.

Many hands make light work.

Finally, the Eldian Royal Family could no longer ignore the existence of these refugees.

Originally, the royal family planned to start conscription again in two years.

Now, they have opened up one last way for refugees to survive – joining the Training Corps.

In the Training Corps, they receive free rations, and if they are lucky enough to pass the training and become a royal guard, they can then eat the emperor's food.

The Training Corps is just a basic corps; its responsibility is to supply qualified soldiers to the other three corps.

Based on the allocation of cadets in previous years: the cadets with the best performance will join the Military Police; those with slightly lower performance will join the Survey Corps; and those with the worst overall performance will be sent to the Garrison Regiment to live a life of idleness and waiting for death.

Of course, even the "worst" trainees still passed the assessment.

The thought processes of royalty are beyond the comprehension of normal people.

Whatever their plans, they won't work now.

Because the Nine Color Team's branch headquarters have also started recruiting new members.

From the very beginning, Wang Yan's Nine Color Team obeyed orders but not commands.

They always turned a deaf ear to the orders of the royal family.

After the Shiganshina District Giant incident, they completely ignored the Eldian Royal Family's orders.

Enraged, the ruler immediately announced the removal of Wang Yan from his position as commander of the Military Police.

However, true strength does not require anyone to bestow glory or status upon it.

The newly appointed commander of the military Military Police was completely unable to command any member of the Nine Color Team.

After a series of reckless acts, this person disappeared without a trace, vanishing completely from the face of the earth.

Even the royal family couldn't find the person's remains.

They sat on wax.

Kill Wang Yan and disband the Nine Color Team?

Let's not even talk about whether they have the ability.

Even if this could be achieved, what benefit would it bring to the royal family?

This is equivalent to cutting off one's own arm!

It might even cause more negative impacts.

Ultimately, the Eldian Royal Family made a decision consistent with their level of intellectual development—to leave it alone and let things take their course.

As long as Wang Yan and the members of the Nine Color Team do not openly declare independence and rebel against the royal family's rule, let them be.

Under such circumstances, the vanguard regiment of the Nine Color Team recruited a large number of young refugees as reserve members.

They will live and train in the newly expanded Military Police base, and ultimately be molded into the kind of people that Wang Yan and the official members of the Nine Color Team want to see.

Nine Color Team's new recruit training ground.

Brown and Black Vanguard Group.

The people in charge here are mainly "Black Goddess" Mikasa Ackerman and "Brown Witch" Eren Gorr.

After the preliminary selection, 93 newcomers remained in the Brown and Black Vanguard Team.

It includes actors such as Rainer Brown, Berthold Hoover, Arnie Leonard, Jean Kirchstein, Marco Portconi Springer, Sacha Braus, Christa Lance, and others.

"To be able to see the Twin Valkyries in person at such close range is truly a blessing..."

"Are they the drill instructors? Thank goodness I didn't join the Training Corps!"

"Of course."

"The food at the Training Corps is much worse than here. Every day it's sweet potatoes, bread, and potato soup..."

"Something's not right... The other twin should be a short, blonde, green-eyed girl."

"I heard that she is Lady Mikasa's shadow bodyguard. If we can complete the training, we'll definitely be able to see her again!"

The new recruits chattered amongst themselves about their instructors, showing little regard for discipline.

As reserve members of the Nine Color Team, these people are fed quite well, with plenty of rice, steamed buns, meat, and mushroom soup every day.

Sufficient intake of Water transformation, fats, and proteins gave them a rosy glow, and their bodies were no longer as withered and thin as before, so sallow that it was unbearable to look at them.

"Quiet!"

Eren's sharp gaze swept across the entire room, and everyone immediately fell silent.

After the battle with Shiganshina, and after nearly two months, she had cultivated her "Sunflower Manual" to a higher level—the fusion of Yin and Yang.

Going a step further, it is the Heavenly Human Transformation.

At that level, she no longer possesses a gender.

Like the legendary angels, they possess almost the most theoretically perfect human form, except for the inability to reproduce.

Now, her fighting power is almost five times stronger than before!

"You bunch of scum, what do you think the Nine Color Team is?"

"A place for you to retire?"

With a stern face, Eren spoke the most hurtful words in her soft female voice, "No matter what standards other seniors have, in my eyes, perhaps none of you will be able to pass the training."

"I will never approve of anyone who doesn't have the resolve to face death."

"Lord Wang Yan has no need for trash!"
