Armin and the others stood there in shock.
"The body... is not here...?" Pieck asked
Back in Paradis...
A crystal started melting and a man came out of it.
"Mr. Y/N..." A man and woman came inside the room
"I have accomplished my mission... Eren." Y/N said sadly
"Mr. Y/N." The man called him again
"I dirtied my hands to save Paradis!" Y/N shouted
"I trampled the people outside the Walls!" Y/N shouted
"Mr. Y/N!" The man called Y/N again gabbing his shoulder
"Huh? What?" Y/N looked at them confused
"Mr. Y/N, now that you came out, I take it that they destroyed your Titan." Tbe man said
"Yeah, they did." Y/N said
"Now, let me go." Y/N said
"Mr. Y/N, the cart for you is now prepared. We shall bring you there." The man said
"Yeah, you should." Y/N said
Y/N rode a carriage that brought him to Historia's house. The man and woman that were riding the carriage with Y/N were also Jaegerists.
timeskip
Y/N got to Historia's house and saw her on a chair while breastfeeding a baby inside the house.
Y/N walked inside and they both smiled at each other.
Historia handed Y/N the baby and he took it with a smile.
Y/N gets transported to the Paths with the baby and he didn't see the Founder Ymir there anymore.
"I see. You've been reborned as this child, the Founder." Y/N said
"Ymir must've inherited Zeke's Titan too." Y/N said
Y/N looks at the tree in the Paths and he hugs his daughter.
"We are now free..." Y/N hugs his daughter tightly and tears fall out his eyes
Back to Armin and the others, the Wall Titans started moving again and they were shocked like the people in Fort Salta.
"Get out of here, now!" Armin shouted
They all rode Falco's Titan and they flew to Fort Salta.
Armin transformed and started trying to stop all the Wall Titans.
The Marleyans and Eldians looked surprised and condused.
"Wh-What are you all still doing here?" A Marleyan soldier askef
"Hop on! We need to get out of here!" Jean said
"But that can't fit everyone here..." An Eldian said
"No... That'll fit all Eldians. We Marleyans will stay here. Escape now." The bearded Marleyan Soldier who seemed like the Commander said
"We have no objections!" The Marleyan soldiers said
"We now forgive all Eldians and forget their sins... hopefully in the next life, let us all be friends not foes." The Marleyan Commander said
"We Eldians would stay here too. We may not meet again in the next life, but we will stay here." Annie's father said
"Dad..." Tears started forming in Annie's eyes
"We hated you before, but please take care of my pride and joy, my only son, Reiner." Reiner's mom said
Reiner was unconscious due to the explosion that Armin caused a d he was badly injured
"We will." Jean said sadly
"Gabi, be a good girl... Don't look at them as enemies anymore..." Gabi's Father said
"Could you bring my children with you?" A woman asked while pulling her children with her
"We can..." Mikasa said
Gabi and her parents hugged one last time, Pieck and Annie also did the same and Reiner's mom pats his head while crying.
The mother of the children hugged her children one last time before they rode the birb.
"Captain..." Mikasa looked at Levi who was sitting
"I have kept my promise to Erwin. I can rest easily now." Levi said
"Captain..." Connie and the others looked at him sadly
"You all grew up as an adult." Levi said
The Levi Squad saluted to Levi
"We will never forget you, Captain!" Connie said and he started crying
"Dedicate your hearts." Levi said saluting back
"Yes!" They replied
They flew to Armin as they looked at the adults, Levi and the Marleyan soldiers wave at them with smiles and tears.
"Armin! We're going now!" Jean shouted
Armin came out of his Titan and he was pulled to Falco's Titan.
They flew back to Paradis, not looking back at the Rumbling.
When they got there, they saw Y/N and Historia who was carrying a baby.
"Sorry..." Y/N apologized
"I'm sorry!" Y/N started crying infront of them and knelt
"I'm sorry..." Y/N started crying hardly
"I can't take it! For me... to kill children and many innocent people... just for this island... Please kill me... kill me. That's all I ask of you." Y/N said while crying
"We won't and we never will. There's no reason to fight anymore..." Pieck said
"We understand why you did those things... It's because of different perspectives, we collided. Just like you said before, if neither of us stands down, we could collide. And yes, we did. You were fighting for the safety of Paradis and we were gambling it." Armin said
"Stand up, Y/N." Mikasa knelt beside Y/N while caressing his back
"Wha...?" Y/N looked confused
"I remembered what Eren said before... that memories play a huge role in forming a person. I certainly believe that a part of you has become Eren's and it's your heart." Mikasa said
Y/N was confused
"We knew you weren't the type of person who would apologize, but now that you've apologized, I know that your heart has become Eren's. Eren's emotional heart." Mikasa said helping Y/N stand up
Y/N stood up and Mikasa hugged him. She put her head on Y/N's chest and listened to his heartbeat while crying.
"Mikasa..." Y/N looked at her
Y/N looked at Historia and she nodded while smiling.
Y/N hugs Mikasa back and she cried harder.
Y/N noticed all the children at the back of Falco's Titan. They still didn't know about Y/N being the Founder.
"Hey... they lost heir parents... right?" Y/N asked Mikasa
"Yeah..." Mikasa replied
"I... I'm going to take care of them until I die." Y/N said
"Armin, Reiner, Pieck, Falco, and Annie. Let's talk." Y/N said
"S-Sure..." They replied
Y/N brought them far from the others.
"Sorry." Y/N apologized again
"Stop apologizing. It's annoying." Annie said
"Sorry about that." Y/N accidentally apologized again
"Sorry, I didn't mean to..." Y/N forgot again
"Let's just say I broke the Curse of Ymir. All of you... live long lives." Y/N said
"What? You... removed the Curse?" Reiner asked
"Yeah. Eren planned that, but I ended up eating him. So... I did everything he planned to do." Y/N said
"I see... Thank you, Y/N." Armin thanked him
"Huh? Why are you thanking me? We were just enemies a few hours ago." Y/N said
"You did everything we couldn't do for Eren." Armin said
"I-It's nothing... Sorry about Hange and the others, though." Y/N apologized
"I'm planning to build a statue for them. Especially, Commandant Shadis and Captain Magath. I made their sacrifices in vain." Y/N said sadly
"They aren't really in vain. Paradis will be safe and we could live a happy life." Pieck said
"Yeah... and did you just say build a statue for them?" Annie asked
"Yeah. I'm the new King of Paradis. Historia told me." Y/N said
"This'll be a new era for Paradis and us Eldians. I will take the memories of the Eldians, but I will not take yours." Y/N said
"Please live a long happy life for the ones who sacrificed their lives." Y/N said
"You idiot..." Pieck said
"You think I can forgive you?!" Pieck hugged Y/N while crying
"We wished for the annihilation of the people of Paradis, but the people outside Paradis ended up disappearing leaving only us... How am I supposed to live a long life?" Pieck asked
"Look, we've got a horse and a cart. You and Jean would make a perfect match." Y/N said
"E-Eh? W-What are you saying?" Pieck asked being flustered
"So do you two, Armin. Annie." Y/N said
"Oh, we're already a thing." Armin said
"Congratulations then." Y/N smiled
Y/N went back to Historia and they walked back to her house along with the children who left their parents.
All of the children that were adopted by Y/N and Historia and they got the last name 'Tybur' except Ymir who had the last name 'Reiss'
After a few more years, the memories of the Eldians except those who battled Y/N were taken away from them. Sasha and her family adopted Falco and Gabi, Armin and Annie made a family, so did Jean and Pieck. Reiner was... he was now a bodyguard to the King of Eldia, but he recently met a woman. Mikasa started living with Y/N and Historia to help them take care of the Tybur children.
Y/N always spent all his time rebuilding the damage he's done to Paradis and the people who Karl Fritz turned into Titans finally came back to Paradis as humans.
Y/N helped the people colonize the former outside world without using the power of the Titans. Everyone had forgotten about using it, but the living Titan Shifters haven't forgotten about how they used it.
Y/N also removed the tradition of when a Titan Shifter dies, a random Eldian baby would be turned into a successor.
One year later,
Y/N was seen looking a the sunset while holding baby Ymir.
"You... are free." Y/N said
