In the river water, a tornado formed.
The tornado connected the surface of the water with gray cumulonimbus clouds in the sky. It spun around itself at high speeds, producing wild gales around it.
Then all of a sudden, the tornado was unnaturally disconnected from the gray clouds. A certain individual was ejected from its mouth towards the deck of Freya.
Badum.
Eren appeared on the main deck of the ship through the tornado, which he dispersed with a wave of his hand. The butcher ran his finger through his hair and looked around him with a smile on his face.
Eren hadn't changed much physically after his breakthrough into the Expert rank. And his presence got even more conspicuous.
Still, the mystery around Eren was what made him appear more intimidating and intriguing at the same time. He had the potential to fly under people's radar if he wanted to and force them to back off with his mere presence at the same time. It was now up to the perception of his opponents.
