บท 114: The Fire Dragon Ugram (4)

Eren was taken aback, his heart pounding wildly in his chest as the enormity of the situation sank in. The truth he had kept hidden, even from his parents, had now been laid bare before the all-seeing eyes of the dragon. 

The surroundings echoed with the crackling of the once warm fire, now transformed into a raging inferno that seemed to mirror the turmoil in Eren's mind.

In the midst of the intense heat, Eren pondered the meaning of the dragon's words - 'The soul of the future dwelling in the body of the past.' It was a cryptic revelation that resonated deeply within him, and he understood its significance without needing further explanation.

Eren had always heard tales of the dragons' omnipotence, but he never imagined they could peer into a person's very soul. Though he didn't attempt to make excuses, he couldn't help but express his surprise at the extent of the dragon's powers.
