[Attack on Titan] behind the scenes

Felicia's birthday party went ahead as scheduled.

Because of the great love of the princess, the front hall of the palace was used as a banquet venue. The palace decoration was already gorgeous, and the luxurious decoration made the venue look grand without much decoration. This is an honor that ordinary nobles do not get.

Therefore, on this day, the nobles in the wall of Xina flocked here, for fear that they would be too late to participate.

Not only that, Felicia also invited people from the survey corps that day, but due to pressure from the nobles and the royal family, only people above the level of the squad leader were invited to come.

When the captain headed by Erwin appeared, the nobles in the venue let out a lot of exclamation.For Felicia's faux pas, and the displeasure of their arrival.

Abandoning the usual rough side, at this time the captains are wearing suits and leather shoes, walking neatly, more heroic than the nobles.

Since she has known Erwin for a long time, Felicia is not surprised to see him in formal clothes.On the contrary, when she saw Levi, she was slightly taken aback.

"What a surprise, I thought you would hate this kind of scene and not come."

"Cut, it's not because you did something superfluous"

After recovering from her illness, Felicia regained her former spirit, but the first thing she did after recovering was not rushing to deal with the work that had been put on hold for many days, but to bring the tailor to Erwin's office and ask him to do it every day. A squad leader prepares a suit.In the eyes of some people, this move is just a political trick played by a noble lady to make the banquet look good, including making suits for them, which is meaningless.

But because of Erwin's face, he had to come to participate.Levi is one of them.

"Levi, you should get used to such scenes." Erwin said seriously.

But Levi was very ungrateful, he hooked the white tie around his collar with his index finger, expressing his impatience.

"Hey...it looks pretty good." Felicia turned a deaf ear to their complaints, rubbing her chin and looking at the two of them.

She originally thought that Levi would only look fierce even in a suit, but unexpectedly he looked very gentlemanly.

"The temperament is completely different, it really depends on the clothes, enen"

"Hmph! The air stinks with these fat pigs. Take it."

Levi flicked his right hand holding the object, and a shiny silver object flew towards Felicia.

Felicia reached out her hands to catch what he had thrown.Opening up the palm and taking a closer look, it was a small silver bracelet, which was inlaid with cheap colored ores, and it was obvious at a glance that it was a folk craft.

"This is?"

"Return gift, and gift."

"Yeah...thank you. But why don't you put it in a box." There is no place to put it, and you can't hold it all the time.

Just when Felicia was worried, Levi sighed heavily, as if worrying about her IQ.

"It's fine if you don't bring it"

After that, he grabbed Felicia's arm and put the silver chain on her hand.

"Also...is it pretty?"

"Hmph, you don't look ugly as a foil to that bracelet"

The priority is wrong!Just when Felicia was about to continue talking, she heard someone calling herself.Looking back, a woman with a figure mark was waving at her.The girdle strangled her, and the fleshy ball on her chest was squeezed like it was about to fall out.

"It's Sibel." When she said this, Felicia smiled slyly at Erwin, and Erwin just coughed lightly, signaling her not to continue talking.He stood up straight with his hands behind his back, pretending he didn't know anything.

Felicia giggled at him, then picked up her skirt and ran towards the woman standing at the dining table.

"What's wrong? Hibel?"

"Hey, who is the little guy next to Erwin?" The girl held Felicia's arm tightly, her eyes full of curiosity.

"It's Captain Levi"

"Eh~ yeah~"

Hiber dragged out the ending with an interesting tone, and Felicia immediately understood her intentions.Although Levi always looks like someone owes him 300 million, and he is short and childlike, but the overall impression is very handsome.Putting on a suit now is even more like people blocking people from killing Buddhas from killing Buddhas.

That guy...is unexpectedly popular, Felicia rubbed her chin in her heart and secretly calculated that this guy unexpectedly became a potential stock.Do you want him to sell his appearance to help yourself...?

"Ah, right, Sibel? You...don't you like Erwin?"

Seemingly bewildered, Felicia stared at her for a moment.

"Hey...you don't know, I've been chasing him for so many years and he doesn't give me a good face, even hug me very reluctantly...I'm about to give up." When saying these words, Xi There was a little helplessness on Bell's face.Ever since he appeared at her coming-of-age ceremony, she has had a crush on him, but she has gotten nothing all these years, and she doesn't even know how much time she has left to follow Erwin's back...

Is that why you took aim at the ruffian?Felicia also sighed helplessly for her.

"First declare that this is not to pour cold water on you... However, it is even more impossible for Levi and you, just give up."

Leaving aside whether it is possible for the two of them to love each other, as far as their identities are concerned, one was a ruffian from the capital of the kingdom, and the other is the daughter of a well-known nobleman, their identities are very different.And Levi had offended so many people before, and now he still holds grudges.I just thought he was in the Corps so he couldn't make a move.Hibel would not be much happier if he was with him.Moreover, no one can guarantee that there will be news of who died in the next investigation outside the wall...

"It's disgusting, if I had a family as good as yours, I would be able to marry a good family~" Xibel snorted unhappily, only feeling frustrated and sad.Because his father's title was not high, not many people came to his coming-of-age ceremony, let alone borrowing the palace to hold a banquet.She looked at Felicia, envious of her from the bottom of her heart.

But all these are the troubles of noble girls.It's just that this kind of trouble really has nothing to do with Felicia.

"Don't worry, you will definitely meet someone better." Felicia held her hand and smiled at her: "The best things always appear when you don't expect them~"

"Hehe, yes, then I will continue to look for a partner~Happy birthday, Fecia" After finishing speaking, Xibel touched her face lightly with his lips to express his blessing and left.

At the banquet, Felicia smiled and greeted every nobleman who came, and accepted their beautifully packaged gifts.Felicia was too busy to spare time when people came and went, even the survey corps could only be left alone, eating in silence.

Midnight is the climax of the banquet.Because the royal family members also appeared one by one.

When the emperor and the princess appeared at the same time, the music stopped one after another, and the noisy crowd also stopped their voices.The trumpet players of the band greeted them by blowing rhythmic melodies.In an instant, the crowd knelt down like waves.

"All free"

The emperor of Xina City is an old man with a snow-white beard scattered on his chest. If you look closely, you can tell that it has been taken care of.Although he was a little old, he hadn't yet reached the age of dementia, his sharp eyes swept over everyone, and he walked to the center of the banquet with the support of the executive officer.

"Happy birthday, Felicia." The princess stretched out her hand towards her kneeling, gesturing her to get up.Felicia took her hand and touched the back of her hand lightly with her lips before standing up.

"Thank you for your blessing... By the way, why don't you see His Royal Highness?"

"That incompetent son was beaten up, and he can't get up now."

It is indeed useless, Felicia nodded silently in her heart.

"It is Felicia's highest honor for you to come." After that, she pulled back her skirt and saluted the two members of the royal family.

"There is no need to be too polite. Felicia, you are an adult, and your parents must be proud of you if they are still alive." The emperor placed a gem-studded scepter on her body and said in a strict voice.

At the mention of her parents, Felicia's eyes dimmed subtly, but only for a moment.She maintained the movement of pulling the hem of the skirt, bowed her head and listened to the teachings of the royal family, even if it was some long and boring official words, she would continue to listen.

"...When you become an adult, you will shoulder the heavy responsibility of the country. I hope you will continue to fight for the victory of mankind." After finishing speaking, he raised the heavy gemstone scepter, ending Felicia's coming-of-age ceremony.

"Yes, I will definitely not disappoint His Majesty's expectations."
