The fall of Sina

"Titan! Titan! There are Titan!!" The sudden appearance of Titan's head on the Wall Sina plunged the entire Orford District into panic.

The humans living within Wall Sina may never have seen Titan in their entire lives; their only knowledge of Titan may have come from descriptions in newspapers.

But no matter how words describe it, it cannot compare to the oppressive and terrifying feeling brought about by the Titan actually appearing in front of them.

Humanity has recalled the horror of being dominated by Titan countless times.

"Quick! Everyone, get out of here! Get away from the city walls!" Although the patrolling Garrison Soldiers and Military Police were terrified, their duty as Soldiers emboldened them to evacuate the crowd.

*Sizzle!! Colossal Titan lowered its enormous head, its expression completely unreadable, and then...

The Colossal Titan raised its right leg back and then kicked it towards the Orford District wall with unparalleled force.

Boom!! The seemingly indestructible city wall, the city wall that had protected people for centuries, has been breached once again.

"Run!" "Help!" "God!"

Where are the Soldiers?

At this time.

With a click, Yago sheathed his sword, his expression grave. He earnestly instructed Annie beside him, "Although I don't know what Zeke and the others' purpose is, Annie, remember, never reveal your identity. Let them continue to believe that the Female Titan Power resides within me. This wasn't my own decision, Annie, you must understand me."

Annie looked at Yago's face and nodded obediently. "I understand, Yago. I won't expose myself. You need to be careful too. The War Chief and his men might be targeting Eren, but if they can, they won't let you go either."

"Rest assured, I am Yago, guided by the Fate Titan."

Annie and Yago hugged briefly before going their separate ways. Due to Annie's special status, Annie couldn't be allowed to fight on the front lines.

Yago stepped out of the camp, hundreds of Soldiers were already fully equipped and ready to go. Among them, more than a hundred Soldiers wearing the Wings of Freedom had calm faces and sharp eyes.

The majority of the other Soldiers were Soldiers the Garrison Regiment and the Military Police Brigade, but compared to the Survey Corps, the Soldiers from the other two corps all showed a hint of fear in their eyes.

"Soldiers! Fight bravely! Dedicate Your Hearts to humanity!"

"Dedicate Your Hearts!! (心臓をholdingげる)"

Yago stood silently to the side, clenching his right fist and placing it on his left chest, and solemnly said, "Dedicate Your Hearts!"

"Are you kidding me? What are you Soldiers doing? The Titan are about to breach the city walls, and you've closed them off? Are you trying to kill us?" A man dressed as a merchant grabbed a Military Police by the collar and shouted.

The Military Police looked very young, probably having only been in the army for a year or two.

"Ten, I'm very sorry, but this is an order from our superiors. We must prevent the Armored Titan attack. If Wall Sina is breached, humanity will truly be doomed."

"Damn it! What are we going to do? Just watch the Titan eat us all? Damn government! They're not even as good as the useless king!" the merchant said angrily.

A massive amount of steam suddenly billowed from the Colossal Titan's body, and almost instantly, its enormous and majestic form vanished. This is one of the most amazing aspects of the Colossal Titan: such a massive body can evaporate at an extremely fast speed.

"Huff, huff," Bertholdt, his face covered in muscle, leaned against the wall, panting heavily.

Zeke stared down at the wall, where countless terrified people, as small as ants, frantically surged toward the inner gate of the Wall Sina.

In the distance, many figures could be seen swinging between the houses and rushing towards this place.

Zeke pulled out Small Knife and muttered to himself, "Let's find out exactly where the Founding Titan is!"

A sharp blade sliced through Zeke's palm, and a surge of yellow lightning enveloped him, transforming him into Titan, ape-like being.

Taking a deep breath, the Beast Giant unleashed a terrifying roar from its ferocious face.

"Awooo!!!"

As the Beast Titan roared, a large patch of golden light suddenly shone down beneath the city walls.

Snap! A hand touched the opening created by the Colossal Titan, and a Titan with a sinister smile, its head peeking out, revealed itself.

"What the hell! How could Titan appear? This is so unlucky! What if I get eaten by Titan?!" Ever since joining the main force of the Military Police Brigade, Hitch has felt very excited. First, she was ordered to overthrow the Royal Government, and then there was a large-scale purge of the Nobility.

Seeing those once high and Nobility slumped to the ground, Hitch felt it was all unreal. Now, it was even more devastating— Titan had appeared outside Wall Sina?! Hitch thought she might as well just desert.

"Hitch, it's okay, I'll protect you," Marlo said, patting his chest.

"You? Your grades were way worse than mine when you were in the Training Corps." Hitch looked Marlo up and down with suspicion.

"Don't worry, we're the Military Police Brigade, the best Soldiers selected from the Training Corps!" Marlo was very confident.

But this confidence vanished completely when faced with a true Titan.

The oppressive feeling brought by its massive body, which is over ten meters tall, is incomparable to that of the wooden planks used during the Training Corps days.

Most of the Military Police and Garrison Soldiers present were seeing Titan for the first time.

Even the leading officer was dumbfounded.

"Ah!!" The screams of their Comrade brought the Military Police back to their senses. Several of Military Police had been grabbed by the Titan and were being mercilessly torn apart.

"All units, commence combat!!"

What followed was a bloody battle.

Wearing a cloak, Yago weaved through the rapids between houses, his Omni-Directional Mobility Gear constantly propelling Yago to nimble and agile movements.

Leaping high to the top of a tower, Yago crouched down to observe the battlefield, searching for the Marley Warriors.

"The Military Police and Garrison Soldiers can't hold on any longer." Yago noticed the main battlefield at the breach and immediately realized that the Military Police and Garrison Soldiers were on the verge of collapse; hothouse flowers couldn't withstand the devastation.

"The Survey Corps has already gone to support Reiner, Bertholdt, Pieck, and Zeke. Where are you hiding?" Yago muttered to himself.

"Forget it, let's figure out how to plug the gap first. Were these Titan summoned by Zeke?" Yago frowned.

This wasn't the Shiganshina district, and there were no boulders for Yago to block the gap, but Yago quickly turned his gaze to several artificial hills with fountains not far from the gap.

"Eren isn't here, otherwise, blocking the door should be done by someone experienced," Yago teased, before rushing toward the gap.

(Wow, I just found out Muzi that a great artist has drawn a character illustration for Muzi. I'm so grateful to Qianyulan!)
