Chapter 550
Grisha looked at Kaneki in front of him, not thinking about why humans were able to float in mid-air, ignoring such an act of stepping into the air, but thinking about how he could bypass the person in front of him and try to kill Frida.
From the short confrontation just now, he already knew that he was probably not Kaneki's opponent, and he also understood that strength could not be measured by volume, God knows what other killer features the other party has? It's just that Kaneki seems to be determined not to let him get close to Frida, because he can only fight with his life.
An inhuman roar sounded, but Grisha swung his huge fist and smashed it at Kaneki, but before the fist arrived, the fist wind had already blown the hair and clothes on Kaneki's body, which showed how powerful his power was.
In this regard, Kaneki will not hold it up, and when the giant fist is coming, he folds his hands and supports it upward.
Rumble!
There was a loud bang, but seeing that Grisha maintained the posture of smashing his fist, his muscles tensed all over his body, as if he had been extremely forced.
Jin Mu under the giant fist is also his hands slightly white, although he is not strictly speaking, and his strength is not comparable to ordinary people, but it is difficult for him to be able to take the heavy punch that is different from ordinary giants unharmed.
I have to say that the strength of this special giant is extremely powerful, and when Jin Mu received this Grisha's full blow, the organs in his body trembled, almost injuring him, but as a mew species, his recovery ability is not comparable to that of a giant, and in an instant, his injuries have long disappeared.
And at this moment, Grisha has used too much force, as the saying goes, no Ji Tailai, Kaneki saw this opportunity, and instantly withdrew his hand, and Grisha suddenly moved forward, and his huge body instantly lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Struggling, making the earthquake tremble, Grisha was about to get up, above the bridge of his nose between his eyes, Kaneki was already holding a white sword of unknown material pointed at him, "I know that your weakness is in the back of your neck, as long as you kill your human body, this huge body will collapse in an instant, right?" ”
Hearing this, although the image of the giant was expressionless, but the face of the giant's body at the back of his neck couldn't help but grit his teeth, and the weakness was perceived, which meant that his life was in danger at any time, and he would not doubt that Jin Mu could kill her at any time, so he was stunned for a moment, and he was not struggling, so he lay on the ground like this.
"Already planning to give up? I hope so, although I can probably guess what you're trying to do with Frida, but I don't know what you want her to do with the power of the giants within? Also, you're not your average doctor, are you? Isn't it something you know about this so-called world within the wall? Since Frida said something ominously last time, Kaneki didn't know much, which is why he asked this question, but in this way, it is very difficult to ask Grisha to answer.
Because this guy now looks like a dead soldier who has failed in his mission, ready to die at any moment.
However, Kaneki knew very well that Grisha would never kill himself so easily, and on the premise of not killing the other party, he actually did not mind making a deal with the other party, even in front of Frida.
"It's okay if you don't speak, so I'll let you go and give you plenty of time to deal with the rest of the matter. But I need you to answer the questions I just asked, and that's not an over-the-top quid pro quo, is it? ”
Jin Mu's words fell, Grisha moved, and the next moment, there was a high temperature on the surface of his body, and the flesh and bones began to vaporize until they completely became air and disappeared, and Grisha also showed his figure, panting, as if he was very burdened, "What did you say... Is it true? ”
"Of course, I never speak." With the click of his fingers, Kaneki smiled faintly.
In the house, which had been half destroyed by the battle between Grisha and Frida, the three of them gathered around a table, and the atmosphere between them could be described as very silent.
Frida had a thousand words to tell Kaneki, and the two hadn't even caught up properly, but she knew that now was not the time to speak herself.
And what about Kaneki? Naturally, he waited for Grisha to prepare his mouth and answer his previous questions.
Grisha is actually struggling in his heart, these secrets, as the only sober person, carry such pain, but he must carry, and even shoulder the mission of revival, looking at Frida, a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes, he knew that he should not hate the princess in front of him, but the other party, as a member of the Reis family, he had to hate, because it was the Reis family that caused all the Eldians in this world to be...
"Actually, you can ask her if you have a question, why do you ask me? As a member of the Reis family, she should know best what is going on here. ”
Kaneki looked at Frida, who looked a little dazed, apparently not knowing what Grisha was referring to.
Seeing Frida's dazed appearance, Grisha's inner anger unconsciously surged up, and she roared, "Are you fooling me? Don't tell me you don't know what the Reyce family does! ”
Hearing this, Frida looked hesitant, "Do you mean, the oath not to fight?" ”
Hearing the words "Oath of No War", Grisha had an extremely complicated look on his face, with annoyance, incomprehension and helplessness, but his anger turned into a sigh at this moment, "It seems that you don't know what the oath of no war means, you just think that you are protecting the world inside the wall and maintaining this 'paradise' at dusk, but you don't know how many Eldians are suffering in the world outside the wall..."
"Wait," Frida's face changed, "You mean there are Eldians outside the walls?" ”
Grisha sneered, "Who do you think I am?" ”
Frida's face was extremely pale at the moment, and she muttered to herself, "Why, why did my father and ancestors never tell us..."
"Do you think that in this world, Eldia is only within the walls? I'll tell you! Back then, your ancestor, the first Fritz, deliberately faked his death and took away those who were willing to follow him, while the remaining Eldians were enslaved by the former hostile countries at the moment of the collapse of the empire! Thousands of Eldia have become slaves, toyed with, killed, and treated like beasts! That's what your Reis family did! ”
Looking at Grisha, who was getting more and more excited the more she spoke, so she slapped the table, Frida was silent, at this moment, her heart was complicated and can be imagined, she was deceived by her father and ancestors, and she has been affected by the oath of not fighting to think that as long as she lives in such a world, she doesn't know that those people of Eldia in the past are so tortured, how can she accept this for her kind-hearted?
Seeing that Frida seemed to be deceived and ignorant of these things, Grisha became more and more disgusted with the royal family, "You can't imagine what kind of life the Eldians lived, we were enslaved, imprisoned in concentration camps, and treated like no citizens, but we had to do countless things for them, even though we were physically and mentally exhausted, but we still did not give up hope, looking forward to the day when we could get Eldia back on their feet." But if you look at the world inside the walls, they are drunk and dreaming of death, as if they are paradise lost at dusk, and they all know their situation, but they still think that they are right. Whose fault is this? It's your Reis's fault! ”
Frida pulled her hands, white tightly, with the power of giants, she knew very well what was going on in the world inside the walls, such a paradise lost was brought about by the power of the giants of the ancestors of the Reis family.
"So, you want to take the power of the Ancestral Giant within me and destroy the world within this wall?"
Grisha nodded, her face cold, "Only in this way will the Eldians in the wall understand what the world they live in, and this hundred years of lies must come to an end, otherwise I am afraid that they will even understand how and why they died." ”
Frida didn't seem to understand this passage, and Kaneki didn't understand it, so he asked, "What do you mean when you say that they don't even know how they died?" ”
"Why do you think giants were born? Who do you think these giants are? Grisha asked rhetorically.
Kaneki pondered for a moment, thinking of a possibility, with a slightly shocked expression, "You mean, these giants are all Eldians?" ”
Grisha nodded with a heavy face, "All of these are Eldians, who use special potions to stimulate the giant genes in their bodies, and all Eldians are descendants of the first giant Fritz, called the descendants of demons, including these Eldians within the wall also have giant genes." ”
When Kaneki heard this, his expression couldn't help but be stunned, "So, these Eldians have become giants just so that the people inside the wall will never be able to go out and deliberately walk outside the wall?" ”
Grisha said with a bitter face, "That's right, they were all exiled to this island by the Marais Empire to guard the Eldians within the walls, including the Restorationist Eldians who tried to restore power unsuccessfully, and I am one of the survivors of the Restoration." ”
This kind of thing, not to mention that Kaneki didn't know anything, even Frida, who knew nothing about the world, didn't expect the truth to be like this, she always thought that the power of giants was the power to protect the people, but she didn't know that those giants outside the wall were also her compatriots, so in this way, haven't they been killing each other all the time?
At this moment, tears of pain and sadness flowed from Frida's face, and she slowly covered her face with trembling hands, and her trembling shoulders indicated how complicated and helpless she was at the moment.
Kaneki sighed, put his arm around Frida's shoulder, and let her lean into his arms, he knew very well that Frida's faith had collapsed, it was the oath of the first King Reis, she had always been deeply influenced by it, and at the same time thought that it was right to do so, to ensure that the living Eldians would not be disturbed by the outside world, but now, it turned out that all this was a lie, and the original King Reis's approach was simply to push the entire Eldian people into the fire pit, and he did this only to fulfill his own wishes, But it has caused countless Eldians to suffer, and his descendants have a troubled conscience, and they will be condemned for the rest of their lives.
Although the belligerents will die, but blindly retreating will only put themselves in an extremely dangerous situation, originally a lion, but the claws and teeth were pulled out, and the fragile could not even kill a sheep.
In Kaneki's view, the original King Reis was an idiot, and his actions were tantamount to putting a shackle on himself, handing his enemies a butcher's knife to his neck.
It's no wonder that Grisha is so bitter and bitter, and it's no wonder that even if he knows that Frida is innocent, he has to do it, this is the great righteousness of the nation, and it is necessary to give up humanity.
Not to mention that Kaneki no longer intends to pursue Grisha's assassination of Frida, but Frida herself has forgiven Grisha, and even thinks that if her death is useful, she does not mind being killed by Grisha.
It's just that she glanced at Jin Mu, she knew that Jin Mu would never let her do this, so she sighed silently in her heart and looked at the candle on the table in a daze.
"Alright, I've told you everything I know, and it's time for you to fulfill your promise." Grisha got up slowly, he had already dispelled the idea of assassinating Frida, not only because he had no chance because of Kaneki's presence, but also because from the way Frida was crying, he could see that she was truly in love with Eldia's people, if this time she could realize Eldia's situation and break the lies told by her ancestors and lead Eldia to rise again, it would be fine.
At that time, even if he can't do this anymore, he will help this princess in other ways.
When Kaneki nodded, Yeager left slowly, his steps were slightly staggering, his back was slightly depressed, he went, I am afraid it was the last period, the power of the giant in his body had existed for 10 years, and soon he would die because he could not bear this curse, because he had to pass on this power, and at the same time he had to prepare with both hands, if the Reis family could not wake up, he could only pin his hope on the next one.
Until Grisha was far away, Kaneki retracted his gaze and sighed, "He is a selfless person, I'm afraid that if I say goodbye this time, I will never have a chance to see him again in the future." ”
Frida nodded slowly, it was precisely because of the power of the giant that she understood why Grisha was so anxious, because his time was short, and because of this, she wanted to do something, for the people inside the wall, for the people outside the wall. Thinking of this, an immature idea suddenly sprung up in her heart, she wanted to go to the outside world and get out of this Paraty Island.
Looking at Jin Mu, who was looking at her at the same time, she opened her mouth, but her lips were covered by the other party's hand, "I know what you're thinking, I just want to see it, and maybe the outside world can help you lift the curse in your body." ”
