The screams wouldn't stop.
They echoed through the broken streets…through the falling debris…through his mind.
Eren Yeager stood frozen.His body refused to move… but his eyes saw everything.
A Titan… smiling.
It was wrong.Completely wrong.
"Why… is it smiling?"
Blood covered the ground.Houses crushed.People running… crying… dying.
And then—
Silence.
For a second… everything slowed down.
Eren's heart pounded louder than the chaos around him.His breath became sharp… uneven.
"This world… is cruel."
Something inside him broke.
Not fear.Not sadness.
Something darker.
🔥 Rage.
His fists tightened as his eyes burned with hatred.
"I won't run anymore."
Another explosion shook the ground.Soldiers rushed past him, shouting orders.
But Eren didn't listen.
He stepped forward.
One step…Then another.
Toward the nightmare.
"If this is hell…"
He looked up at the towering monster.
"…then I'll become the devil they fear."
And in that moment—something awakened.
Not power.
Not yet.
But a promise.
A terrifying one.
