[Attack on Titan] behind the scenes

The three of them who followed Felicia back to the Wall of Hina realized what the gap was when they first stepped into the door of the wall.

When the people here live in a spacious manor without worrying about food and clothing, when they wear gorgeous and exquisite waiters and talk about this place, when the carriage takes them to the casino and other places, the outside is a scene of ruins.It seems that what happened outside did no harm to the people inside Sheena's Wall.

Allen resented this scene, several times he wanted to do something impulsively but was stopped by Felicia.

"Ellen, don't get me in trouble"

Felicia told him to stop in a rare serious tone.Allen looked at her and his heart tightened.

"Remember the last time you got me into trouble?"

Although it seems so trivial now, Allen must have learned his lesson.Seeing him clenching his teeth and lowering his head to endure, Amin persuaded him for a while before continuing to follow Felicia's footsteps.

"Please answer me, Miss Felicia, are you the same as them?" In any case, Alan didn't want to accept this fact...

"What do you think? Then you may be disappointed." Felicia smiled slyly and led the three of them to the door.

A Ming just stepped into the door of the mansion, and he didn't know how to leave in the next second.

Everything in Felicia's family seemed different from other nobles.Because there are children running around and busy people everywhere.Although it is only a door away, it is like two worlds.

The children sat on the stairs biting their own bread, and then discussed something while looking at the books on their knees.

From time to time, a middle-aged man with a physical disability walks back and forth between the rooms on crutches, holding carrots and other foods that are convenient for storage.You will hardly find a fully-bodied male, much less one who is slowly sliding back and forth in a wheelchair.

As for the maids, they walked back and forth holding the laundry and sheets, and scolded the children not to eat without washing their hands.Some seem to be the mother of a child...

"This, is this a relief center?" Amin wiped his eyes in disbelief, as if what was in front of him was just an illusion caused by magic.

"Don't worry about the details... Anyway, the house is so big that some people should come to live in it, right?"

Over the past year, Felicia has continuously taken unadopted children and unemployed women into her mansion, and also transferred some of the wounded to her mansion for them to help farm.The garden in the backyard has long been transformed into a field, and she tries to grow no matter what kind of food, at least at this time, she can grow some.

And children are responsible for learning words, etc... so the huge space is no longer as empty as before.

After quickly arranging food, clothing, housing and transportation, Felicia asked them to follow the housekeeper here to learn what the little helpers should do.

"Just follow Aunt Martha and learn more about what the servants should do. She will teach you, and you must ask when you don't understand."

"Yes"

Although it was very difficult for Alan and others to adapt at first, they often fell down when serving tea and water, did not clean up cleanly, did not pay attention to details, or sent scalding hot water to Felicia, etc.

But thinking that he had nowhere to go, he could only grit his teeth and persevere.

On this day, Allen was responsible for cleaning Felicia's room. He wore a white turban and held a broom in his hand.Looking around the spacious room, although he had never been there before, he still felt similar.

"Mom, did you work here too?"

"Yes..." Felicia turned around from the seat and looked at him. Losing his mother believed that for any child, he lost the world.

Although it is not optimistic to say that my father is still alive, there is at least one thought that I will not despair.

"I still remember that a few months ago she said that she found a good part-time job, helping to clean the nobleman's house... At that time, I strongly opposed it... She always told me how the nobleman's house was like when she came back Gorgeous, I'm bored with how messy a room that size is if it's not cleaned regularly...”

Having said that, Allen tightened his grip on the handle of the broom.

"Mom has always been good at cleaning, but I always get dirty..."

As he spoke, Allen fell into his own memories.Because of loss, any thought can make you remember.Every detail that I never cared about in the past will be deeply impressed today.

Seeing Allen like this always makes Felicia can't help but think about herself.I think I also lost my family at about this age...

Hearing her take a deep breath, she opened her mouth.

"Ellen, as long as you live, your mother will be happy"

The news about Allen's rescue came from the report of a small captain named Hannes in the garrison.

Allen's mother was pinned down because of the collapse of the house, and there was no way to escape.Allen and others wanted to remove the template but couldn't do it.And at this time the giant appeared, he picked up Karla as easily as a chicken, and then...bitten her to death...

Even an adult Hannis couldn't help being horrified by the sight, let alone a few children?

So seeing the room brought back his memories, he couldn't help being comforted.

"As a mother, you always want your children to be well, and... as long as you live, the evidence of your mother's existence will not disappear"

"...Really?" He tried not to cry, but the snot gave him away.He sniffed hard to get them back.

"Really. Because everything about her will be in your heart. As long as you live, nothing about them will disappear. Moreover, you are her treasure. Even if you die, you will definitely become a guardian spirit by your side. Yours." Felicia squatted down and pointed at Allen's heart.

"Well, I won't let my mother down." Allen pouted and nodded desperately, for fear that he would cry out.

"Alan, haven't you finished cleaning yet?"

At this moment, Mikasa broke into the door, and the first thing that caught her eyes was Alan's aggrieved crying, and a wretched aunt was putting her hand on his chest...

"...What did you do to Alan?" Black smoke rose from Mikasa's body, and the scarf also floated up with killing intent.

It's not that if I cry him, is it interesting for you to stare at me? !

This daughter-in-law is really amazing, and Felicia expressed that she was under a lot of pressure.

"Didn't do anything, and he didn't do anything. So hurry up and clean up..."

Felicia raised her jaw to signal them to look at the bed.

The sheets on the messy bed had long been skewed and half of the quilt fell to the ground, and various documents were also scattered everywhere.As for the vanity mirror, it is even more horrible. The table is occupied by a pile of half or two-thirds used bottles, and all kinds of cosmetics and water glasses are placed there casually. As for the wardrobe, it is even more horrible. ...

"...How did you survive without so many maids?" Mikasa asked seriously.

"Who knows~"

Felicia spread her hands and said that I don't know, anyway, I have nothing to do with cleaning, so I planned to get up and leave.Before leaving, she could still hear the conversation between Alan and Mikasa, to the effect that Alan could do it without Mikasa's help.

But those are his problems, so Felicia doesn't plan to get involved.

Just before leaving, she glanced at herself on the dressing table...

The dressing table that has been with me since I was a child has passed for so many years, and some places have been painted and damaged, but I have always kept it.

Not because Felicia was saving, but because it was full of her memories.Whether it's every drawer, every bottle, or every mirror...

The scene of the mother combing her hair in front of the dressing table...

The sight of brothers painting themselves into big faces with stolen makeup...  

After being spanked, the older brothers looked at their wounds in front of the mirror, while the younger self clamored why they should look in the mirror at my place... Those pictures seemed to stay intact in the mirror , as long as the occasional glimpse can be seen.

Even the bottle of perfume that has run out is deliberately kept, because it was carefully selected by her mother on her 13th birthday.She didn't fill it with anything, just let the empty bottle sit on the table, so that the smell it gave off from time to time could bring Felicia memories...

However, when she took a closer look, she looked up and saw a familiar yet unfamiliar face in the mirror.Felicia felt like she didn't know her, she was so strange, there was no smile on her face, and she looked extremely embarrassed, especially when she got up, but Felicia knew it was herself.

As the years passed, she was no longer a young and youthful girl. Felicia looked at the back of her hand. The back of her hand, which was originally smooth, had wrinkles and calluses carved out by a knife at some point. There was a shallow pit, and even a little white hair remained on the comb, which made her feel that time was passing on her body.

In the mirror, my youth is gone, my youth is gone, my beauty is gone, and the giant doesn't know when it will attack again...

How long can I walk by myself?Can you still play the value of your arrogance?

But when I asked this question myself, a person's answer appeared

"Hold on for me, even if you're dying alone in pain, hold on for me!"

"Ha...why do I have to think of him?"

Felicia may not know it, but when she drives someone a wedge, he also casts a spell on himself...
