Another Ackerman

Final Chapter: Epilogue (Historia Route)

Y/N safely lands on the ground with the help of his maneuvering gear hanging onto Eren's falling Titan.

Y/N stares at Mikasa and Armin crying over Eren's head, Gabi and Falco hugging each other with tears in their eyes, Pieck and Annie reuniting with their Father, Reiner reuniting with his mother, and Connie and Jean patting each other's backs.

Y/N while holding his stomach, tries to walk to Levi who was sitting on the ground, but he fell."Hey..." Y/N waved at her

"Hey..." Lilith waved back

"... Are you alright?" Y/N asked

"Yes. What about you?" Lilith asked

"Yeah..." Y/N said

"Y/N, can we... talk for a moment?" Lilith asked

"Sure." Y/N said

Lilith holds Y/N's hand and she led him somewhere behind a rock.

"Y/N, sorry." Lilith apologized

"For what?" Y/N asked

"For all the pain and suffering I caused you." Lilith said

"It's okay. I understand why you had to do those things." Y/N smiled

"... What do you mean?" Lilith asked

"I'm not mad at you, but I'm grateful. All you did was make me grow as an adult. You all say I'm as strong as Captain Levi before, but it was only in terms of strength and I act like a brat most of the time." Y/N said

"Well, maybe you did make me suffer..." Y/N said and the smile on his disappeared

"Y/N, back to my question before, will you live with me happily and peacefully?" Lilith asked

"Sorry, Lilith... but I'm married to the Queen already..." Y/N apologized

"Oh... What'd happen to Petra why do you have her necklace?" Lilith asked

"She's... dead." Y/N said

Lilith was shocked and devastated

"No way..." Lilith said

"Sorry... I couldn't protect her." Y/N apologized

"No... You shouldn't be the one apologizing... I should be... Maybe if I hadn't betrayed you all... maybe... maybe Petra would still be alive... while I'm the dead one..." Lilith said

"No. Petra would be smacking you if she heard you talking like this. You wouldn't get past the gate of heaven because you got kicked out of heaven by Petra. You aren't the one to blame. You may have betrayed us, but I felt that your care for us can only be surpassed by your family and comrades in Marley." Y/N said

"No. I cared for you more than my Marleyan comrades... and... I even cared more for you than the others... I just had no choice back then..." Lilith sadly said

"I told you already, didn't I? I already forgave you." Y/N smiled

"Thanks..." Lilith smiled

"I'm gonna need some time alone... see you later..." Y/N said

"Okay." Lilith said

Y/N walked away and hid behind a rock

"Petra... you saw everything we did, didn't you?" Y/N asked wjile holding Petra's necklace

"I hope you did..." Y/N said

Y/N knelt to the ground until steam reached him.

"Steam?" Y/N said

Out of nowhere, Noelle, his Former Squad members, Petra, and his parents appeared in the steam while saluting at him.

"Everyone..." Y/N started tearing up

"I... can let it all out now, right?" Y/N asked while smiling and they nodded

"Thank you..." Y/N said and he started crying

"Took you long before you let it all out." Levi said

"Everything's all right now, Y/N." Lilith said

They look around them and they were surrounded by their dead comrades in the Scouts saluting at them. They all salute back while tearing up and smiling.

"Thank you... for showing us what we dedicated our hearts for." Their late comrades in the Scouts said at the same time even though the three couldn't hear them

Y/N returned back to Paradis and he saw Historia sitting on a chair while holding a baby.

"Welcome back." Historia smiled

"I'm home." Y/N smiled back

Historia stands up and walks to Y/N.

"It's a girl." Historia said

"Yeah. She'll probably grow like you." Y/N said

Historia hugs both Y/N and the baby for a moment and they went inside the house.

From a distance, Lilith, Gabi, Falco, and Levi were watching them.

"Ms. Lilith, I heard from Ms. Annie and Ms. Pieck you had a thing on that guy. What do you feel about it?" Gabi asked

"... I feel happy for Y/N. He finally found someone who could make him truly happy." Lilith said

The three looks at Lilith with surprised faces.

"Although... it hurts a little." Lilith giggled

Three years have passed since that day which was called "The Battle of Heaven and Earth." The people who have faced tremendous loss in life yet survived must be suffering from mental scars that won't heal. As the world mourns it's losses amidst anxiety and uneasiness, the Nation of Eldia formed an army under the Jaegerists and is focusing on strengthening their military forces. Fearing the retaliation of the remnants of the humans who survived on the other side of the ocean. The people of the isladn raise their voices in unison.

Y/N was carrying Ymir, his and Historia's daughter. Historia named the child Ymir in honor of her friend (freckles) Ymir. Y/N brings Ymir to the kitchen and saw Historia cooking food. Ymir smiled at the two and Y/N and Historia smiled back at her.
