Levi X Reader A mission worth dying for

Chapter 89

"Yes... I'm going to eat Eren and bring my sister back! I'll inherit the world's history and exterminate every last titan!" Historia yelled out.

Kenny dropped Rod to the ground and faced her.

"Hey, hey, Historia! Have you forgotten everything this guy has done to you? The only thing he cares about is the blood inside you!" Kenny mocked, as he aimed a dagger towards Rod's mouth, as he was doing his best to resist him.

I wasn't planning on interfering anytime soon.

"He doesn't wanna become a titan himself! He's just trash that forces his brother and daughter to! That's this father of yours!" Kenny shouted.

Rod had blood running down his lips and he grabbed the blade of the dagger and pulled it away from himself.

"He's wrong, Historia..." Rod muttered.

"Doesn't sound wrong to me." I mumbled, crossing my arms.

"I must not become a titan myself. Do not believe... what anyone else says..." Rod muttered.

"Oh, is that right?" Kenny wondered, throwing Rod forwards. Historia ran to him. Rod coughed a bit and turned his head to face Kenny, while covering his mouth.

"Kenny. You served well up until now. You're free now. Go find another purpose in life... and live out your years." Rod suggested. Kenny remained silent for a moment.

"That would bore me to death." He murmured, as he turned and began walking up the stairs towards Eren.

"Kenny! What are you doing?" Rod questioned.

"Go ahead and turn into a titan. I won't interfere anymore." Kenny responded, walking up to Eren. He grabbed Eren by the hair and lifted his head up. He even had the decency of taking his mouth guard off. "However, no head starts. You both become titans and have at it. If Historia wins, you'll have your peace. But if you lose to Eren, the situation stays the same." Kenny explained, as he ran his dagger along Eren's forehead. Blood ran down his face.

"Hey, hey! What about me?! I'm still vulnerable ya know! If Historia eats me instead then it'll just make things complicated!" I yelled out. Kenny looked at me with a smirk.

"If you're that scared, turn into a titan. I'm sure you'll be fine. Or leave." Kenny suggested.

"Tch, Haha, very funny..." I murmured, turning my gaze away.

Suddenly Rod rushed over to Historia with the syringe, holding it out to her.

"Historia! With this injection, you can become a powerful titan! Then you can eat him, but in fact, it's more than that! You must bite his spine and consume the spinal fluid!" Rod explained, placing the syringe in her hand.

"Whoops, better step back!" Kenny shot his gear out and zipped away.

"Hurry up, Historia!" Rod pleaded, stepping back. She pointed the needle at her arm, trembling and getting ready to inject herself.

"What a stupid bastard, using your own daughter like a tool." I spoke up. Rod glared at me without saying a word. Historia suddenly looked up at Eren.

"Eren, why?! Why aren't you transforming?! If I become titan, you'll get eaten! At this rate..."

Eren lifted his head and stared down at Historia with tears in his eyes.

"Do it, Historia!" Rod yelled out. I quickly smacked him in the head to shut him up.

"It shouldn't have happened... Me... My dad, too... If five years ago, he hadn't done that here... Your sister... would have been able to do something, right? But my dad stole the Power of the Titans from its rightful place. Just how many died from that? Armin's Grandpa... Thomas, Nack, Mina and Milieus... Marco... Those guys on Squad Levi... The people of Stohess... Those Soldiers who came to save me... Mr. Hannes... And... (y/n)..."

I shot up when I heard my name said. My heart ached for some reason. As he was mentioning all those who have died, I felt sadness in my heart. The Levi Squad... that's right... they died because I failed to protect them and Eren... Many died because of our father's actions. I wonder... Maybe it would have been better if he never had children. We're so cursed, people die left and right because of us monsters.

"I can never atone from it all. It shouldn't have happened... Those days of training... That dream beyond the walls... I... Shouldn't have happened. So, at the least... let it end at your hand. Eat me. Save humanity. It's all... up to you." Eren sobbed and we all took in his words.

Shit...

I feel like my old self again, and I remember why I joined the Scouts. To find my father, and now that I have, there's no purpose for me anymore. There's no need for me to live, especially when I should have died a long time ago.

I stepped forward and walked next to Historia, looking up at Eren.

"Yo, Eren... I understand how you feel. You and me... We never shouldn't have happened. I'm sorry I never told you the truth, about how I'm your older sister... I wanted to protect you, but there isn't a need to keep secrets." I explained. Eren looked at me with tears pouring down his face. I turned to look at Historia with a gentle expression.

"After you eat Eren, go ahead and eat me as well." I spoke.

"Eh?!"

"I'm much more powerful than Eren, and with both of our power, you will be unstoppable. I don't have a reason to live anymore. I'm not even meant to be alive right now." I replied. I forgot Levi again, and he'll never forgive me for those horrible things I said to him. He is better off without me in his life.

"What are you saying, (y/n)?!"

"If you don't want to eat us both, then I can eat Eren, and you can eat me afterwards, does that sound okay?" I suggested, patting her shoulder. Historia looked away with tears in her eyes, then facing Eren once again.

"Eren, that time... When you called me a normal person, I was so happy." She whispered. She was getting ready to inject herself, when suddenly she froze. She didn't move.

"What's wrong, Historia? Are you scared? All you have to do is inject the liquid in your body." Rod spoke.

"Father... Why? Why didn't the Reiss family... in that whole 100 years... eliminate the titans and liberate humanity? All while possessing the power to control all the titans..." Historia questioned.

"Because, the first Reiss King who built this world within the walls... wished for us to be controlled by the titans. The first King believed that was the only path to true peace." Rod explained.

I couldn't believe the shit that was dribbling from his mouth. He can't actually be serious.

"But I do not know why." Suddenly he grabbed Historia's wrists. "It's only known by those who see the world's memories. Long ago, I... along with my brother, pleaded with our father to free humanity from the titans... time and time again. However, he would not fulfil our wish. Eventually, it came time for my father to pass on that role. When my brother inherited the Power of the titans and I looked into his eyes... I understood what that meant. To create this world... To govern its very foundation... To be an omnipotent being is to be what my brother became. Do you know what we call that? God."

I couldn't let Historia listen to anymore of his crap, and I stepped in between them.

"That's enough. She obviously can't handle it in that case. I'll do it." I spoke up.

"You?!" Rod was shocked with my statement. I nodded my head.

"Did you forget? I also possess royal blood. You are the Reiss family, well, I am the Fritz family's successor. I'll inherit it, and when the time comes, Historia can as well." I explained.

Rod ignored and tried to make Historia inject the syrim. Suddenly she tossed it to the ground and it shattered.
