This was the first ti Eren had seen the Tower Master look so scared. Was there really a reason for him to be scared, over such a thing? Sothing didn't feel right.
The Tower Master opened the coffin, which had already been broken by Eren. He pushed the heavy top aside, using every bit of strength he had.
After a long ti, he managed to open the coffin, expecting to see the outco of Eren's attack. However, the mont he looked inside the coffin, his lips separated.
His panicked expressions were replaced with pure confusion. Eren also approached the coffin, trying to see the face of the brother that was killed by him.
The mont he reached the coffin, his expressions were no different than the Tower Master. He was just as confused, as he could only see the small pieces of the coffin that were broken by his sword.
Other than those fragnts, there was nothing else inside the vision. His brother wasn't inside. Suddenly, he started having an extrely bad feeling about this. Experience tales with empire
If his brother wasn't inside the coffin like the Tower Master thought, then where was he? He would've thought that the Tower Master had sched this, if he didn't look just as confused as him.
"Where is he?!" Both of them asked at the sa ti, looking at each other.
"How would I know?" Once again, their words ca in unison.
The Tower Master went silent. He thought about it, and it indeed made sense for him. If Eren was behind that disappearance, why would he attack the coffin? It was clear that he was trying to kill his brother, who he believed to be inside the coffin.
Normally, he would have tried to kill Eren, but he was more concerned about the whereabouts of the person that he was trying to find.
How could that person disappear from within the coffin? There were no signs of the coffin being opened in the first place. This place had been extrely secluded. Although it was near the capital, no one could reach here if they didn't have the key.
There was only one key that he had with him. So how? How could that person simply disappear as if he had been an illusion all along.
He looked at the key in his hand, his frown deepening. He felt relieved and frustrated at the sa ti. He was relieved that the person wasn't inside the coffin when it was attacked. If he was, then he might have been killed for certain.
At the sa ti, he was frustrated since he didn't know the present whereabouts of that person. Was he even safe in the first place, or was he in so danger?
Eren also silently observed the Tower Master. He was the only person that could lead him to his brother, especially since he didn't even know what his brother actually looked like in this place.
He had to use the Tower Master to find his brother, but could they really do that? What if that person had already left this world, returning to the Northern Continent on his own, starting his main arc? That was certainly the worst case scenario for him.
Both the Tower Master and Eren are worried, but for different reasons. It was just then that they heard a voice.
"Are you looking for ?"
Both of them looked back at the sa ti, finding a figure standing near the entrance of the hall. Both of them had entered the hall through that place, but none had seen that person there before.
From his physique, it clearly looked like a young man that had extrely long hair that ca down to his waist. His hair looked extrely rough, as if they hadn't been cleaned in a long ti.
The man was sitting on a rock at the entrance, his head down as he looked at an ant slowly crawling away.
As he had his head down, none could see his face properly. However, Eren felt an extrely familiar feeling from the man. He wasn't a fool to not realize the identity of the person.
There was only one person who was missing from this place. It was his so-called brother.
"Do you know that ants exist in multiple worlds? Even in the tower, I used to see many of them. It looks like they exist here as well. Amusing, right?" he asked, slowly raising his head to look at Eren.
"Am I right, brother?"
The mont he raised his head, his face ca into full sight. Even if most of it was hidden behind his long bangs, but through the gaps, so of his features could be seen.
The man looked completely identical to him. If there was any difference besides their cleanliness and clothes, it was that their eyes looked completely different.
The young man had blood red pupils, while the parts of his eyes that were supposed to be white, had turned completely black. Those eyes looked like the eyes of a demon.
"Young Lord, you are awake!" the Tower Master imdiately went down on his knees, also recognising the person.
He looked the most elated out of everyone here. The person he was trying to find was perfectly safe. Moreover, he hadn't gone missing.
The Tower Master placed his forehead on the ground, greeting the young man like a servant who was welcoming their master.
Even Eren found that sight strange. Why was the Tower Master bowing before that man? Weren't they supposed to be children of the Tower Master? Why would a father bow before their child? Was it simply because of strength? Was he scared of his child?
No, it looked like there was sothing more. There was no sense of embarrassnt in Tower Master's tone. He truly didn't appear like he was talking to his son.
He had noticed the sa thing when the tower master talked to him, but he simply thought that it was because he hated him for killing his brother. It felt like there was sothing more complicated at play.
