Sorum pondered.
"What exactly is it?"
His gaze was fixed on Elena's corpse.
Carlo Bickel took a step back, overwhelmed by the nauseating, foul odor. The stench was unbearable for him.
It felt as if a cold wind had swept past behind me.
Carlo Bickel was so pale that his heart seemed to leap out of his throat, and he took a step back.
Solum stared at Elena's skirt, knowing there must be something they didn't know, so he lifted it up. If there truly was some giant's secret, they had to find out the truth, or they would miss out on a lot of information.
This is something he has to endure.
"I'm here to help."
Despite his physical discomfort, Carlo Bickel went up. After all, he was still a soldier, and a soldier has a soldier's responsibilities.
He was a soldier in the Survey Corps.
We will not back down.
fear.
disturbed.
They must all be expelled.
He drew his sword.
At this moment, Solum had already lifted Elena's skirt. They were all being very careful, not knowing what kind of scene they would see, or what dangerous thing they might see.
The foul-smelling liquid continued to overflow.
At this moment, surprisingly, an unidentified object rolled down.
Carlo Bickel took a large step back in horror before looking in Elena's direction.
His eyes widened.
It took him an incredulous long time to finally utter a single sentence.
This is something that will never happen... Carlo Bickel's mind went blank, and his voice sounded so abnormal.
"This is...this is...this is..."
It was an unidentified object struggling.
Sorum boldly approached, only to discover that it was an infant.
"The child...the child is still alive...this is Elena's child...I never imagined he would still be alive..."
Sorum took the child out.
This is a newborn baby with no wounds or injuries whatsoever, suggesting that the giant either swallowed the baby whole without chewing. How the child survived remains a mystery.
"This is truly a miracle; this is probably the only person to have survived inside a giant's mouth."
"Sorum said."
Carlo Bickel remained silent, his face deathly pale.
He frowned.
The birth of a new life is a joyous occasion that should be celebrated and receive many blessings.

Life is so precious, let alone in a world where the population has drastically decreased.
But--.
At this moment, Carlo Bickel felt no joy whatsoever; instead, he felt a chill run down his spine. A coldness spread from his feet to the top of his head. His mind was blank; he was utterly incapable of thought.
His eyes were fixed straight ahead.
Sorum was slightly better; he looked at the baby.
The baby made no sound of crying, and most strangely, the child was biting off the umbilical cord, as if trying to survive in this cruel world.
"Son of the Giant——"
Carlo Bickel blurted out, as if he had just realized something.
It turned out to be the case.
This is the son of a giant, which is why Carlo Bickel has such a strong fear of a newborn baby.
The House of Surprises.
The place was filled with a strong, distinctive scent—the smell of animals, the aura of wild beasts.
This was a room of about thirty square meters, in a complete mess, filled with iron cages of various sizes. Inside the cages were all sorts of wild animals, and their stench was truly pungent.
It smelled fishy and foul.
The house was filled with the smell of wild animal droppings.
This doesn't look like a place for humans to live at all.
Dalio Inocesio stared in disbelief at everything before her, but what drew her attention was the iron cage at the very back.
"Could this be the legendary...?"
Dario Inosecio's voice was hoarse as he saw a large, very old cage.
It was covered in rust.
He approached slowly, step by step. His obese body wobbled as he walked, and his eyes were filled with fear—a fear mixed with disgust.
He hadn't felt this way in a long time.
This is the Wall of Sheena.
Dalio Inosecio's identity also differs from that of the majority of the population; he is a wealthy businessman. Furthermore, Dalio Inosecio has close relationships with politicians.
In this way, someone of Dalio Inosecio's status would generally not encounter any danger. Ordinary people could not threaten him either.
“I never thought I’d be scared by a brat. I’m Dalio Inocesio… I’m… I…”
Dalio Inosecio couldn't even finish a single sentence.
He was not only terrified but also dared not approach the cage. It wasn't some wild beast, but a teenager whose voice growled like a wild animal. His sharp eyes were also very keen, warily watching his surroundings.
This is essentially no different from being a wild beast.
His hands and feet were shackled.
Not wearing any clothes.
His body was covered in filth and emitted a foul odor. The boy was thin, seemingly without an ounce of fat, yet he exuded a threatening aura, likely due to his sharp eyes.
"Sir, it's alright. He's locked up, and the cage is very sturdy."
Such a sycophantic person is Dalio.
This Dalio is the owner of this Wonder House.
That ugly face bore a fawning smile…
0120 No business is without its guile [Please subscribe]
That smile was utterly fake, nothing more than an attempt to curry favor with Dalio Inocesio. And Dalio Inocesio was his VIP guest, someone who could bring him considerable profits.
The saying goes, "No merchant is without guile."
Dalio's interpretation of this line is incredibly vivid.
"Is it really that one? I can't tell."
"of course."
He said it exaggeratedly.
"This is indeed, the son of giants, Juclo, without a doubt..."
"Son of the Giant..."
The child born at that time was Elena, a fanatical heretic, and the invasion of the Titans was the work of these heretics. Countless lives were lost, and Elena was among the first to be killed.
Dalio had goosebumps all over his body, and he was trembling.
At this time, everyone knew how terrifying the Son of Titan was. More than fifty years had passed since the first appearance of the Titans.
The fear of giants is deeply ingrained in the hearts of those who are still alive, while those who have never seen a giant are warned by their elders about its terrifying nature. The horrific legends of giants are widely circulated, making them perfect for frightening children.
Giants are synonymous with terror.
At this time, Dalio was in the same boat, harboring a deep fear of giants.
Fifty years ago, people firmly believed that the city walls could protect them for life. But now, the myth of the city walls has been shattered.
The city walls are not impregnable.
"Thirteen years have passed, and it's still not..."
Thirteen years have passed since that incident, and the child born thirteen years ago has grown into a teenager.
The sins of those heretics can never be erased.
Dalio wasn't implicated at the time, but the shock he felt afterward at seeing the devastated streets and houses, and the corpses strewn everywhere, was indelible and unforgettable. At that moment, his only thought was the terror of the giants.
"Good fortune and misfortune are intertwined."
Dalio gave a wry smile and looked at the boy in the cage.
"A baby that survived inside the giant's belly? Is it a blessing or a curse, a stroke of luck or a pitiful end..."
Logically speaking, this child was incredibly lucky to have survived, and he was also a victim. He should have been treated properly, but societal prejudice sealed his tragic fate. Firstly, his mother was a heretic, one of the culprits of the tragedy. Secondly, he was a child who survived from the giant's vomit, an ominous sign.
The child's name is Joker.
His body was covered in wounds.
A tragic future awaits him. Dalio has come to redeem Joker, for his own future benefit.
"Am I really thinking too much?"
Dalio and Joker's eyes met. Joker was shackled and trapped in a cage, but his eyes weren't dejected or lifeless. Instead, they held the fierce look of a carnivorous beast, as if he would pounce and bite Dalio's neck off at any moment.
What Dalio felt was fear.
A fine layer of sweat appeared on his back, soaking his clothes...

The wet clothes clung to my body, and I felt a chill run down my spine as a cold wind blew past my back.
"Humph."
Dalio was frightened, but he gave a bluffing snort.
He quickly looked away, while the astonished master handed Dalio a small cloth bag filled with steel coins.
"Sir, you are truly blessed."
"You're lucky too."
Dalio said with a smile.
He looked completely unconcerned. In truth, this small amount of profit was of course not enough to sway this greedy man. "This Joker is in high demand. There are other people who also want this kid."
Dalio paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about something.
"Who is he? Do you know who he is?"
"I don't know. The man was wearing tattered black clothes and had a very gloomy face."
Do you know why he wants the child of the giant?
"Well... we have no way of knowing... He only said that he wanted to obtain the child of the giant at all costs, and that was all."
