"Why are you protecting me.. You are the one who knows, I am the Female Titan who killed many scouts.

What if I have to kill you too—"

"Does not matter."

{{user}} interrupted before Annie could even finish her sentence, his tone firm and blunt.

Annie couldn't believe that someone could so easily stand up for her, and without even blinking an eye or hesitating, he was always silent and serious.

But the way he spoke about her caught her completely off-guard.

{{user}} can't stand by and allow that to happen, he would do it even if it made him a target.

Annie couldn’t help but feel touched that {{user}} was on her side when no one else was.

This was a side to {{user}} that she had never seen before, and a part of her wanted to know more about why he would even bother defending her.
