Having a squad of 10 titans seemed like a great force… they could easily take on a group of wild titans that consists of a few tens! 

Although we may still be far from being able to dominate the entire place… there were certain problems to be considered that could not be ignored!

The first was about our enemies. We couldn't underestimate them yet… among the multitude of titans that these ten soldiers faced, the ones that were considered abnormal could cause some problems for them. They weren't as easy to deal with as the other titans!

If it wasn't for there being several of them working together, if they were caught off guard by one of those titans, this could have been pretty bad! After all, the only thing that gave them superiority was their intelligence, their strength was practically the same… so when one of those titans appeared who had certain unique behaviors, things were evened out a little more in their favor!

…and the bad thing was that sometimes it wasn't so easy to tell the difference between those titans and the others ones. So it wasn't hard for them to be caught off guard by one of the abnormal titans.

Another problem was actually one of the characteristics that the serum had mentioned in its description… that the rationality of people who transform into titans can be lost!

Sometimes I could see that some of those transformed people acted a bit strange and didn't seem to understand our words… they just did what they wanted! It could be said that to a certain extent this was fatal for a group of people who are supposed to act together!

If for example they had to take a defensive formation and one suddenly leaves his place to do what he wants… the result of that was understandable! That might as well cause the entire formation to collapse putting everyone in danger!

...perhaps the only thing that can be salvaged from this defect is that at least when one of them lost his rationality, they didn't try to attack the girls and me. I think this is because they only recognize the other wild titans as their enemy... and their instinct forces them to fight them even without their rationality.

Also, this seems to go both ways… most of the wild titans would stop targeting the girls and me to attack the titans on our side. Almost only if we attacked them ourselves would they then turn their attention to us.

“Let's go back!!”

"Yes!"

"“…”"

Lastly, the most noticeable and important handicap was time… they only had a certain amount of time that they could be transformed! That's why after heading for a deeper time in the direction of the 3rd wall, I decided to give the instruction to return. Either way, I think we've learned enough about the serum for today.

[Bum Bum bum!]

"...it really is huge"

“U-n… if we were to attack him, then it would really be very difficult...”

"...now I understand why you guys didn't react much when I transformed before"

After the girls and Horo respond to my words, the ten people transformed into titans start following us… and the girls can't help but focus their eyes on one of them as they speak.

And this was more than understandable! The two soldiers that I had chosen before and were at the second soul level were without a doubt the ones whose transformations were the most shocking! The woman had become one of those 50m tall titans!!

…and well, although I mentioned earlier that these titans might have some weaknesses, most of them didn't apply to her… just the fact that her transformation could only be for a while was still a weakness to some extent! But it was also reduced because since she was at that level of strength, the length of time she could sustain the transformation was longer than the others who were only at the 9th limit of the first soul realm.

As Shigure says … I really wouldn't like to have her as an enemy!! Not because after her transformation she was at the 7th limit of the 2nd soul level, but because of her immensity!!

…in fact, I was a bit worried that, given her size, she might have been seen by some people in the citadel… and also by someone in the second city wall was not impossible! This was another reason why I had to finish these tests now!!

"...although I think he would be more of a problem if we had to face him"

"U-n... I don't know if my weapons can cut through his armor..."

“Yeah, maybe it would be hard on my fangs and claws too…”

Well, that 50m girl wasn't the only one who had caught the attention of the girls... the other man who also had a similar strength as her before transforming into a titan, his transformation was also a bit different than the others.

Although he wasn't that... colossal in size, no doubt as the girls mentioned, having to face him would have its own problems! This titan was covered by an exoskeleton of a very resistant appearance!! And even though I said it wasn't that huge… it was still around 15m!! 

…and I also had my doubts if our weapons could break through that bone armor. Unfortunately, I didn't want to attack him and check it out now…if he got angry or lost control of himself it wouldn't be nice!

Such a mass of muscle and bone rushing towards you was not something I wanted to experience!!

Without a doubt, the two of them overshadowed the other 8 who had become titans... well, their transformations also varied a bit, but only in terms of size. There were titans from 3m to those with 15m between them, and each one had its advantages and disadvantages.

When we get to the place where we had started the experimentation, I ask them to try to return to their human form... and then I realize that this in itself was a problem. No one here knew how to do that!

It wasn't until after each of them tried to do it in some way that some of them started to de-transform… and I must say that the scene of this was no less impressive than when they became titans!

Like a puppet whose strings have been cut, the bodies of those titans fall to the ground! Right away, their entire body seems to evaporate…a lot of white smoke is emitted from those bodies! And if you got a little closer, you could even feel quite hot air.

So, after several minutes of witnessing that, from the neck area of the titans, the silhouette of people appears before our eyes… and seeing how they come out of those huge bodies, I now think that the idea of comparing those titan bodies with puppets could not be more precise! 

…it was really as if they came out of a chamber where they controlled the body of the titans. A kind of Gundam of meat…

Gundams, huh? Umu … I think that would be good…

“…great, they can keep their clothes even after transforming. I'm a little envious…”

Horo's words snap me out of my musings… she seemed to be the most shocked by all of this. Well, it was more because of that she said than anything else... it might actually be a bit of a hassle having to be undressing and dressing every time she transforms... although, for me, those moments had become one of my little enjoys in this world!

[Objective [Eliminate 1,000 Titans] Completed]

…as I watched as Horo-san took out a crystal from one of the titans that had gotten close due to our presence while complaining a little the system makes a notification in my head… the colossal titan was almost like a flame that attracts moths, so she had been a little bit busy. But thanks to this, I had been able to complete that mission objective of killing the titans.

So… now that I have recovered a good amount of red crystals in my possession, I shouldn't be so selfish… I should see if there is something in the system that can solve Horo's problem… even though it would mean a great loss for me... and yes, this time the crystals I would spend were not what put me in a difficult situation!

"Well... let's go back to the citadel."

""Understood""

"…Yes sir"

You could say that today was quite productive. One of the reasons I was able to complete that goal was these ten people… without them, it might have taken longer for this!!

But it wasn't good to be too greedy… that could be fatal! The important thing was that with them now I could surely increase the titan kill counter steadily and faster!

…besides, I still have a few more serums in my possession!!

Well, for that… we may have to evaluate a few things to carry out that plan. I was now able to realize some of the other disadvantages of the serum… many of these soldiers needed to support each other in order to return! The tiredness after transforming seems to be quite a lot!!

…from what I see, the only ones who were feeling a bit better were the 2 who were in the second soul realm.

Although thanks to everything I had discovered on this day I was thinking of using the remaining serums on people of that level, this might not be that easy! It is right, this world was at the peak of level 2, but... there weren't many humans with that strength! And much less in the group of people we had saved before!

…one could say that it was already lucky that these two were here. Haaa~ Things can never be that easy, right? It would be great to have an army of colossal and armored titans... but for now that can only be a dream!

(POV Erwin)
“ Commander Shadis, we have to investigate what is happening! We can't stay without knowing anything!! ”

“…I'm sorry, Erwin, but the order has already been given from above. There will be no more explorations outside the wall! ”

A few days ago, a huge shape had been seen in the distance again… although it was too far away, it could only be that colossal titan that had broken the Maria wall! 

Well... this couldn't be fully confirmed, but honestly, I could only wish it was that way! Otherwise, then it meant there was more than one titan of that size!! That could only make things worse… humanity would certainly be in a much more difficult position if it were like that!!

Unfortunately, my attempts to try to get out of the walls to try to get more information on this had been denied each time… It seems that humanity could only stay within this cage!

Well... as long as those titans decided to leave us alone. If what happened almost a year ago happened again, I couldn't see hope for our race! And much less if the others did not try to understand more about those titans!!

“I know how you feel Erwin, but… I can't do much. The problems we now have within these walls are quite a few… although some 15,000 people went out to carry out this “mission”, there are still several problems due to the fall of Wall Maria”

“…”

Mission… what “mission”? They just got rid of all those people … but this wasn't the commander's fault either, so I couldn't take it out on him. I could see the sadness on his face when he mentioned this…

“…I just hope the titans give us enough time to 'fix' those issues. If they decide to attack again, then things will only get worse…”

“ Haaa ~ I get it too, but…it seems some are afraid that it's our expeditions that caught the attention of those titans earlier… in fact, it's been said that this division of the militia might disappear due to those rumors”

“…”

…I wonder more and more if humanity has any hope. Perhaps we can only survive as long as those titans allow. No, I can't give up… but, for now, there is no choice but to wait… wait until my words can be seriously heard.

“S-Sir, Commander! S-Something happened!!”

“ What happened?!! ”

“W-Well… what just happened is…”

...suddenly, Hange walks into the commander's office quite alarmed. Perhaps the time of humanity has completely run out? As I think about it she begins to explain the problem that brought her here...
