Chapter 1604: A-Rank Breakthrough

"Goodbye, Eren…"

"Eren, your father, where is he? Where the hell is he?"

"No. I can't take it anymore. Why didn't he tell me? He… he could have asked me again."

"I hate it when I see your face, Eren. Those eyes. They remind me of him."

"Stay here with Aunt Nina for a while, Eren. Mother will go look for your father."

"Close your eyes and go to sleep, Erni. Even though I am not like your parents, I will do my best to take care of you. We'll have so much fun. Hehe."

"Oh, it seems you are already sleepy."

"Good night. Sleep well."

"Sleeeeeep…."

Eren felt as if he had lived his past life once again while his consciousness was suspended in a mysterious state. When he gained a semblance of control over himself, he felt like he had been sent into an even stranger place.
