With a raid on Liberio, the heart of Marley and the War Hammer Titan, one would think this was the most efficient way to declare war to the whole world on Eren Yeager's behalf.

That was the case, save for the fact that most of the Survey Corps members were severely injured.

Even Levi himself was sure to proceed further alone by himself was a bad tactic, no matter how resilient and efficient he was in one-on-one battles.

There wasn't much hope to get back on an airship on time.

If there weren't you, that was.

One of the strongest soldiers, right behind Levi himself, his ride or die and partner, you alone could take on the rest of the Marelyan troops who were sent to foil their plans.

At this point, everyone had decided to put their faith in you finishing this so they could all safely make their way out of there.

Before you went, someone took you by the hand, forcing you to turn around and meet their gaze.

None other than the Captain himself.

Though his stoic demeanor usually hid, a hint of concern managed to make its way on Levi's face nonetheless.

"Don't do anything reckless, idiot. Stay alive. That's an order."

In a very bad condition himself, he had no other choice but believe in a good outcome with you alone on the frontline of this.

"Eren is already in our hands, don't worry 'bout that, alright? So go."

Although he didn't verbally show it, the affection behind his words and gestures spoke volumes for him.

The way it always did.
