The two would definitely get married soon after graduation, everyone thought so at the time.
However, the reality is not like this. Although Allen revived because of Rean's efforts, he did not change his original idea - to work hard to become stronger and become a man worthy of Brecht.
For this reason, he joined the Empire's regular army and became a member of the Fourth Division, which has the strongest strike power. He was also the only one of Rean's close classmates to join the army.
Of course, the original intention is good. As a man, it is normal to be strong. It is also a good idea to take the military route and accumulate military merit.
It was a troubled time when Tova and Rean graduated. Although it is not a good thing for civilians, it is indeed a rare opportunity for those who are ambitious and want to climb up.
The only thing Allen did wrong was overestimating his abilities.
This is exactly the same as when he was in school. Rean could help him get rid of his autism, but ultimately failed to correct his nature.
Eager to climb up and make meritorious deeds.
When there is no war, he performs very well and works very hard, which is praised by everyone.
Once the war broke out, he became the most belligerent one. He did not hesitate to fight against Rean and dared to contradict his superiors for military merit. In the end, he went crazy and even left the 4th Division and joined the 2nd Division at the forefront. p>
Although there is an influence of the Empire's Curse, the biggest problem is that Allen's will is not enough.
Rean has so many acquaintances and old friends, and Thorz has so many students, all of them have withstood the curse. Only Allen was affected by the curse, constantly amplifying his desires, and finally clamored to become a "new hero".
At the critical moment, it was Brecht who showed his strength. He once again asked Rean for help, and roped in a group of old classmates to successfully bring Allen back with a "second correction palm".
But because he has been entangled with the curse for too long, Allen is like Rean during the Northern Campaign, in extremely bad condition.
And what he did before really hurt the hearts of many people.
Needless to say, Brecht is my favorite.
Rean, an old friend, also felt sad.
There are also the commanders and comrades of the Fourth Division who have always cultivated him.
How could Rean feel relaxed when we meet again with such memories?
Of course Allen would not know what he was thinking. He was rejoicing at the reunion of his old friends, and at the same time he did not forget his responsibilities.
"Why are you here, still on the train of the Railway Gendarmerie?"
Fortunately, Li En had something on his mind, but no one else did. Seeing that Li En didn't speak, Elliot said:
"We need to get dad's permission for an urgent mission. Major Claire lent us the car."
Allen slapped his forehead: "Oh, I almost forgot, Elliot, you are the son of Lieutenant General Craig. I will lead the way for you."
"Wait a minute, Allen." Rean reached out and held his shoulder, "Are you... trying to force yourself? The way you look now reminds me of when I first joined the fencing club."
Allen was stunned, then shook his head and said: "No, no, how could it be possible? Rean, your worrying personality has not changed at all."
"It's fine if you don't have one. I can probably guess why you joined the regular army, but don't forget that you are more than just a person now. If you work too hard and damage your body, someone will cry."
Allen was touched by the word "someone", and his expression changed from relaxed to serious.
"I won't forget it. How could I forget it? Speaking of which, Brecht and I are where we are today thanks to you."
"Remember you are already engaged, get married as soon as possible."
"Eh? Eh? Is there such a thing?"
After hearing Rean's revelation, Elliot exclaimed.
He and Brecht belong to the same music club. They are the two highest-level people in the club and have a good relationship.
"Well, we got engaged right after graduation." Allen blushed, "I joined the army to protect her."
"Is this a man's pride?" Laura smiled, expressing understanding.
"Thank you for the hospitality." Fei's expression was the most direct.
When mentioning this matter, Allen was obviously in a good mood and said:
"When I get married, I will definitely send invitations to everyone, everyone will come."
"One invitation is not enough, I want to be the witness!" Rean said, patting Allen's shoulder hard.
"Okay, it's settled."
Allen also patted Rean on the shoulder, and then led the group into the fortress.
The space inside the fortress is also huge. Main battle vehicles and mecha soldiers are neatly parked on the huge training ground, and you can even see special models that have just been installed.
The soldiers trained in it are not comparable to those of the leading army. They are indeed elite. This is the military appearance that the largest military power in the Western Continent should have.
In this place where everyone is wearing military uniforms, Rean and his entourage in civilian clothes are particularly conspicuous.
Elliot is the son of the division commander. He used to visit the station often and everyone with seniority knows him.
Not to mention Rean. Although he changed into a fashionable outfit, he did not wear glasses or disguise for the convenience of the mission. He still had a sword hanging on his waist that was almost the only one in the empire. He was recognized instantly.
Caused a commotion.
I don’t know who shouted: “Salute!”
Everyone in sight put down what they were doing and saluted Rean in unison.
Someone else said: "Welcome to our Fortress of Dorenore."
What is a card, what is an imperial hero, this is it!
The government's propaganda against Rean is absolutely sparing no effort, especially among the middle and lower ranks of the army. Rean and Valima's deeds have been circulating, and there are signs that the rumors are getting more and more mysterious.
This made Rean very embarrassed. Fortunately, this was not the first time he had experienced this kind of battle, and he had already mastered the best way to deal with it - just smile.
There is no need to be too close, as this can easily cause riots, and there is no need to be too aloof, as this can easily cause resentment.
But Allen couldn't bear it at first: "Sorry, I was a little careless. Should I take you through the back door?"
"Don't worry about us."
Li En waved his hand and said, everyone has already come in and cannot exit.
Moreover, we are almost at the headquarters, and we will get close to each other once we get there.
Just a few seconds after he finished speaking, a familiar breath appeared in his perception, accompanied by a deep voice.
"——Here he comes."
The visitor is wearing a special military uniform that can only be worn by officers above the rank of colonel. He is tall and strong, has blond hair and blue eyes, and has a resolute face. All the qualities that a soldier should have are perfectly reflected in him.
"Welcome, Schwarzer, Master Elliot, Alside and Clausel too."
The four people named also responded one by one.
"Instructor Nethar." Rean nodded in greeting.
"Hello." Fei leaned forward.
"Ahaha...please don't call me Master." Elliot scratched his cheek in embarrassment.
"Long time no see, Major, no, I'm already a lieutenant colonel now." Laura's greeting was the most formal.
The different ways of greeting not only show his relationship with the old vii class, but also reveal his identity.
The former instructor of the Thorz Military Academy and the ace lieutenant colonel of the 4th Mecha Division, Nethar is known as "Strike" because of his tough style and fierce fighting methods.
ps: Although he is obviously a winner in life, he can almost ruin his happy life. There is no one else except Allen. No wonder there are always people saying in posts, forums and other places that every time they see Brecht, they have a thought
ntr's feeling, I even imagined the sunset, Brecht playing the piano while... ahem, tsk tsk - I can only say that it's lucky that Rean is the protagonist.
ps2: I had a serious discussion about the Minotaur plot with my friends in the group before. The group member said - it's a good idea, but Allen is half the main plot and there is a big class reunion. What are you going to do? My answer
It's very simple - a funeral! Eren died in the war. Hold a funeral and have everyone come. It can also highlight the heaviness of the war, so as not to always say that no one in the Imperial War School will die. It is too unreal. Now, join the army and die.
