"Ymir, you're the only one who can better understand this place. I want you to be in charge of extracting information from that soldier and have him make a detailed report on the situation of this island." Gale gave the order without looking at Ymir.
His body, now taller, commanded much more respect from his subordinates. And from the way he was dressed, he looked completely like a refined man.
In his jacket, he carried two automatic pistols, better known as the new model that, due to limitations, was only used by Levi's squad, as it was a high-level weapon and difficult to manufacture.
"These people surely hate you." Ymir did not hide her thoughts.
"They attacked first, we responded. They thought we were from Marley, and we shared that assumption. If they are smart, they won't take this hatred too far."
After saying that, Gale turned around and asked, "Who do you think they will hate more when they realize we are enemies of Marley?"
Gale had a clear answer. Even if he were in these people's position, he would use the power of his enemies to kill those enemies who exterminated his homeland.
This story had already been told in the world Gale came from, so he deeply trusted those historical events to calm his unsettling thoughts.
"Anyway, as long as I'm not around, don't do anything reckless." Ymir parted ways with Gale and went straight to seek the answers she needed.
As for Gale, he went directly to speak with Eren about other matters that needed to be done immediately.
…
"Are we doing it?" Eren asked, slightly worried.
"Yes." Gale nodded after asking Eren to connect with Paradis to inform them and give orders.
Eren then returned to the Coordinate once again.
Within his field of vision, countless branches extended outward, and those dim lights connected all Subjects of Ymir.
All Subjects of Ymir are connected by these invisible threads, and no matter how far away they are, Eren can contact that target through the Coordinate.
Now, he can use the power of the Founder with great skill.
But so far, he had not disturbed the girl carrying the bucket of sand.
Ymir, the Founding Titan, was the ancestor of the Eldians.
All Founding Titans throughout history had used her to maximize their power.
What the Founding Titan could do was not the same as what Ymir, the Founding Titan, could do.
For example, currently Eren could only use the power of the Founding Titan to control the actions of Titans.
But Ymir, the progenitor, could do "anything."
Not only could she control the actions of Titans, but she could also change a Titan's height, weight, and appearance.
According to the genealogy of the Reiss family, a severe plague once struck within the Walls.
Upon receiving this news, the King of the Walls at the time used the power of the Founding Titan to immunize the population against the disease.
But Eren knew that it was not something the Founding Titan had done directly, but rather something the "King" had asked Ymir to do.
The power of the Founder that Eren uses is completely different from the power of Ymir, the progenitor; they are not even on the same level.
At a glance, it was obvious that Ymir, the progenitor, was the origin of all Titans.
Eren watched her as she carried buckets of sand and piled up Titan sculptures within the designated coordinates.
She seemed to lack self-awareness, always repeating the same actions over and over again.
Within this coordinate system, the concepts of space and time do not exist.
Whenever Eren came here, as long as he did not leave, everything outside seemed to remain frozen in time.
How long had Ymir's soul, the progenitor, been wandering here?
Eren watched her pass by him, but she did not react.
He did not want to disturb the spirits of his ancestors, so he turned around and connected his consciousness to that of a Titan. In an instant, he arrived in the outside world.
He was surrounded by tents that provided shade, and in front of him stood Commander Pixis, whose consciousness had crossed space and reached the capital of Paradis Island.
