Eren had been using his berserking knowledge and skills passively in the current tiline.
He first trained Steve. Then he took the dual berserkers under his wings to serve as his henchn. He had told Rodrick to start things from scratch after finding out how the guy operated as a berserker.
His suggestion had helped Rodrick Renar a lot. The royal scion listened to Eren's words and changed his class midway at the cost of stepping back in his ranking journey.
The reason Eren was a capable berserker despite the odds placed against him in the last tiline was that the berserker class amplified the ranker's powers based on their aggression. The butcher had an insurmountable amount of pent-up aggression in his last tiline, serving as fuel to shape him into a worthy berserker.
However, Eren's past wasn't as motivational to him when he was living it as it was at this point when he was retrospecting it. He had exhausted his potential as a ranker when he broke into the Adept rank at that ti. He couldn't make much use of the class due to a lack of resources.
This tiline was different though.
Eren could get access to all the ranking resources he could possibly need to support his newly acquired class. It was ti for him to put his past experiences to effective use– and not in a passive way.

Day 28: Two days from the graduation event's conclusion.
Things were getting tense.
It had beco a showdown between all five academies' exceptional rankers of their generation. Only 18 teams remained in the Sansara World, including the White Raven crew.
The moderators inside the Sansara World had also taken care of the majority of the infiltrators. The moderators from Edinburgh's side were now trying to locate the ones among them who had defected to the enemy kingdom, finding and neutralizing them through a grid search.
The moderators also knew that it was highly probable the participants' teams might have infiltrators among them. However, they would stay as sleeper cells for the most part until they had a reason and chance to act. Thus, the moderators prioritized critical matters first.

There was a rush to get to the last Sage legacy testing ground.
The White Raven crew was trying to get there as well. However, the team was in dire circumstances. There was a certain anxiety on most of the team mbers' faces as they ran through the woods using their respective movent spells.
The reason for this anxiety was that the crew was being attacked by 12 of the 17 remaining teams. The reason for the attack was simple. The White Raven crew had achieved too much success in the event as a whole.
It wasn't clear who had obtained Sage Nira's legacy. Or if it was acquired at all. But it was confird that Eren's team had managed to claim two Sage legacies to itself.
Having a Sage legacy was already a big deal. But claiming two legacies back-to-back made the White Raven crew stand out like a sore thumb. Plus, so of the rankers had decided to band together against Eren. He had prevented them from claiming Sage Loxley's Legacy and gave them death threats after all.
All of the participants who had survived to this point were strong rankers in their own right. They had their own egos to tend to.
They considered themselves to be equally worthy of the Sage Legacies as Eren and his team mbers. Why did they not get their hands on the Sage Legacies if they were so capable? All of them ca to a singular conclusion– they weren't as lucky as Eren.
The White Raven crew would have fought with a team or two without having to worry about losing its assets. The trio of Eren, Steve, and Ramy alone would have soloed such teams individually without breaking a sweat. Each of the three was able to face an entire team by himself and co out on top for the most part.
In addition, Eren had given the team mbers items from the Sage Legacies, which had strengthened them greatly. Renita was given Nira Nightshade's transcendent-grade bow while Steve owned Ivar Ironside's transcendent-grade broadsword. Other team mbers had also received groundbreaking items and artifacts.
Therefore, each mber of the White Raven crew was a lot stronger than before. The team's strength had also increased as a whole because of the individual growth of every ranker involved.
However, being attacked by 12 teams simultaneously was not sothing the White Raven crew could take lightly. Especially at this point– where everyone had leveled up and was at their full potential.
Plus, the Perks from Sansara World made things difficult to predict for anybody. It was especially disadvantageous for a team that was being targeted by so many rankers with different fighting styles and loads of Perks backing them.
Eren knew that the forces of Layos had interfered with the live feed of the event. Still, he didn't want to take the risk of using his Sin Series Abilities on the participants. They had beco too potent to be used carelessly inside Sansara World.
Plus, the butcher was more aware of his powers than ever before. His bloodline was even more special than he gave it credit for. He didn't want to do anything that would make him get targeted by Demonmir, Edinburgh, or possibly... Anfang Alliance.
Eren wasn't as afraid of Demonmir as he was before. But he decided to be cautious about the Demon Prince who had possessed him.
Even with the Sin Series abilities, Eren didn't think he could beat half of the 12 enemy teams made of outstanding rankers. Especially when Sansara Perks played a major role in acting as spoilers. So he was the first one to suggest fleeing the scene when they started getting attacked and acted on it as soon as he said it.
Under the guise of targeting the flags, the other teams sought to loot the Sage Legacies from the White Raven crew. The attacking teams had agreed to a temporary truce among themselves until they got rid of Eren's team and obtained so of its loot.
