"Speaking of which, Alan, you'll be sixteen next year."

Ian stood up, sorted the files, and got ready to get off work.

"If we count from 845, it would have been five years since you inherited Attack on Titan from Grisha Yeager."

"Yes." Allen looked at his palm: "Eldians can only live for another thirteen years after inheriting the power of giants, and I only have eight years."

"Have you ever considered getting married?"

Ian put the organized documents in the drawer, turned his head and looked at Allen's face.

"According to the laws of the island, men and women who are sixteen years old can register for marriage at the government center. Have you ever considered the major events of your life?"

At the main entrance, Mikasa who was standing guard heard this topic, her ears moved involuntarily, and her eyes became sharp.

As an Ackerman who has awakened the power, she possesses powerful force, so she becomes a member of the Guard, responsible for protecting the life safety of Eren Yeager, the owner of the Ancestral Power.

Allen blushed and stammered: "You, you, you, what are you talking about, Ian, how can you have the energy to consider personal feelings at this time?"

"Just because you don't have much time, you should value the people around you more, right?" Ian said solemnly.

He had a straight face, as if he was discussing a serious matter with Allen.

"I'm afraid the only time for stability is these two years. According to our intelligence and inferences, the Middle East Coalition Forces will go to war with Marais in half a year at the latest."

"Once the war starts, we can't stay out of it. Sooner or later we will be involved."

"At that time, it will be too late for you to regret."

"Although as an outsider, I shouldn't get involved in your and Mikasa's personal feelings, but after all, we grew up together."

"If you want to get married, you can only take advantage of this period of time. I'm not kidding. You are not children anymore. You both need to think about it carefully."

After hearing these words, Allen fell silent for a moment.

He is no longer the ignorant boy, and various experiences have made him mature.

Since meeting Mikasa again at the shipyard, he has gradually understood his own heart.

But he never had the courage to take that step. He only had eight years left to live.

He felt that Mikasa should forget him, but he felt that he was selfish. He also wanted Mikasa to stay with him and let this girl always remember him. Even after his death, he hoped to remember him for at least ten years. .

The thought that Mikasa might fall in love with another man, that kind of thing, God, he simply couldn't imagine it, and felt as if his heart was being grabbed.

"This is not your matter alone. No matter what your decision is, I think the two of you should have a good talk and don't be too selfish and impose your feelings on others."

"I'm leaving now. See you tomorrow."

Ian patted Allen on the shoulder, gave Mikasa a look, and then called the guards to leave the office, leaving space for Allen and Mikasa.

Allen didn't dare to look at Mikasa's face. Mikasa opened her mouth to say something, but in the end she didn't say it.

The atmosphere between the two people suddenly became a little awkward.

Mikasa suggested escorting Eren back to the bedroom. Eren and Mikasa walked side by side in the long corridor where the soldiers were standing guard, with what Ian had just said echoing in their minds.

He took a deep breath and looked up: "Mikasa, what do you think of me?"

"Eren. Yes." Mikasa's eyes were evasive: "He is my important person."

"Mikasa, are you taking care of me because I saved you when you were a child?" Allen looked directly at Mikasa: "Are you doing it to repay your kindness? To thank me?"

Mikasa lowered her head and pursed her lips: "When Allen saved me from the murderer, I really thanked you very much."

"Really?" Allen lowered his head.

He was like a deflated balloon, listless.

"That day, before Allen showed up, I was really scared." Mikasa blushed slightly and whispered: "My parents were killed by bad guys, and they discussed selling me. My whole body is trembling with fear, but... Allen, you are here."

"Alan saved me, I'm so grateful to you, thank you for wrapping the scarf around me."

"Yeah" Alan responded dejectedly.

The atmosphere between the two suddenly became silent again.

Mikasa and Eren walked to the bedroom door without saying another word.

"Send it here, Mikasa." Allen opened the bedroom door.

Mikasa looked up at his face, gritted her teeth, and asked: "Eren, can you really only live for eight more years? How did you come to this conclusion? Is there a possibility that it is a lie? "

"It's true." Allen said softly: "The ancestor Ymir died in the thirteenth year after signing the contract with the 'Earth Demon', so all subsequent owners of giant power only have a life span of thirteen years. , this is a fate that even the ancestor giant cannot change."

"But it doesn't matter, Mikasa, you didn't inherit the power of a giant, so you won't have any influence. You don't need to care too much about me. After I die, you just remember to come and see me every year. That way, I will be very happy. "Alan forced a smile.

"No." Mikasa pinched the hem of her clothes.

"Ah" Allen's mouth opened wide, and the fake smile froze in an instant.

When he heard this, he was heartbroken. He didn't expect that Mikasa wouldn't even go to his grave. Was his status in Mikasa's heart so low?

So what does the previous ambiguity mean? Is it all about repaying a favor?

He suddenly wanted to shut himself in the room, cover his head with a pillow and cry.

But at this moment, Mikasa hugged him and pressed her chest against his.

"No. Alan, don't leave me."

Mikasa shed tears, and the warm tears soaked Eren's clothes.

"I want to be with Allen all the time, and I want to see Allen every day. Why, Allen must die?"

Mikasa hugged Allen tightly, but it was different from the hug at the shipyard two years ago. This time Allen had grown much taller, even taller than Mikasa.

He was a little at a loss, sighed, and patted Mikasa on the back to comfort her.

It took a lot of effort for Mikasa's mood to stabilize. Allen's hand gently brushed Mikasa's tears and said what he had been thinking about for a long time:

"Mikasa, what would you do if I said I wanted to marry you?"

"Do you like me? I mean the kind of love between a man and a woman."

Mikasa didn't answer with words, her face turned red and hot.

She didn't know what to say at this time, so she just expressed her meaning through actions.

She stood up on her tiptoes and kissed him.
