Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 185: Chapter 44: Turns Out It’s a Second Child

Su Xiao was the first to enter the basement, which was entirely made of wood.

The furnishings in the basement were simple: a wooden desk, a chair, and two person-high wooden cabinets against the wall. Next to the cabinets were several wooden boxes filled with a myriad of bottles and jars.

Su Xiao began searching for valuable items in the basement. He picked up several yellowed sheets of manuscript paper, covered in various mathematical formulas, with words like ”harmony” and ”split” faintly visible.

He continued to search until he found a test tube inside one of the wooden boxes.

[You have obtained (Marrow of the Attack Titan).]

Marrow of the Attack Titan

Quality: Green

Type: Experimental Item

Rating: 17 (Note: Green rating ranges from 10 to 30.)

Description: Marrow of the Attack Titan. Extracting the marrow reduces the lifespan of the power holder of the Giant. The research cost is extremely high; in-depth research is not advised.

Selling Price: 3% of the World Source.

...

After seeing the attributes of this test tube, Su Xiao was taken aback. It was the first time he had seen an item that could be sold for the World Source.

The possibility of gaining the ’Attack Titan’s Power’ from this marrow is very small; it might not fetch a good price.

The Power of Giant is not very popular within Reincarnation Paradise; it’s not because it’s not strong, but because the cost to acquire such a power far exceeds the return.

From the annotations of Reincarnation Paradise, it was clear that the main use of these things was to sell them for the World Source, so Su Xiao chose to sell it.

[Acquired 3% of the World Source, now have 3% of the World Source in total.]

This was a good start, and Su Xiao started rummaging through everything.

[Blueprint of Giant’s Life]

[T-Type Titan Dissection Drawing]

[Aetmis Report]

[Bone Marrow of the Progenitor Titan]

...

A large number of items lay before Su Xiao, all of decent quality, but with little actual use. They all shared the same characteristic: they could be sold for the World Source.

Su Xiao felt that this was Reincarnation Paradise’s reward for entering this basement, so he sold all the items.

[Acquired 2% of the World Source, now have 5% of the World Source in total.]

[Acquired 1% of the World Source, now have 6% of the World Source in total.]

...

[Acquired 6% of the World Source, now have 14% of the World Source in total.]

The Bone Marrow of the Progenitor Titan that Su Xiao sold was sold at a very high price, surprisingly fetching 6% of the World Source.

His gaze couldn’t help but turn to Eren; the Progenitor Titan’s Power was now inside him.

The idea had just appeared in Su Xiao’s mind when he dismissed it. No matter how he thought about it, extracting Titan marrow wasn’t something that could be done so easily; it likely required complex procedures.

Entering the basement earned him a total of 14% of the World Source, which made Su Xiao quite satisfied, as the World Source represented attribute points, and the more, the better.

The basement was already in disarray thanks to Su Xiao, while Ani and others stood dumbfounded at the doorway, unable to understand Su Xiao’s actions.

The only part that remained somewhat tidy in the basement was that desk. Su Xiao pulled out the chair from the desk and sat down.

On the desk were items like dried-up ink bottles and a balance scale. Eren’s father, Grisha Yeager, was more than just a doctor; he was also a giantology scholar.

Opening the drawer of the desk, three journals lay flat inside.

Su Xiao took out the journals, and Reiner and others gathered around, also curious about what was written in them.

Opening the first journal, the first page was full of mottled bloodstains; this was Eren’s father, Grisha Yeager’s journal.

The contents of the journal were as follows:

”Today is my eighth birthday. Father bought a cake, but there was too much cream on it. Although I don’t like it, I had to act very happy, as it was my father’s intention. However, my sister ate a lot, and the cream was all over her little nose. As long as she’s happy, it’s fine.”

”My sister died, ... large blot of ink... was bitten to death by those Marleyans for no reason other than we walked outside the Isolation Zone. We just wanted to see the airship.”

”Large blot of ink...”

”Those...”

”It’s my fault my sister died. I was the one who suggested going to see the airship.”

”Torn-off page...”

”Torn-off page...”

”I am eighteen years old now. I have matured.”

”Torn-off page...”

”I never knew such an organization existed. ’Eldian Restorationist’ is my true home.”

”Torn-off page...”

”It’s unbelievable that the Restorationist’s member ’Owl’ is part of the Marley government. Now I understand why the Restorationists always turn misfortune into blessings. I really hope to meet ’Owl’.”

”Torn-off page...”

”Today, at the Restorationist, I met a woman named Daina Fritz. She’s so beautiful, my heart is racing. What is this strange feeling?”

”Daina Fritz is actually of the Eldian Royal Family. What a surprising revelation.”

”Torn-off page...”

”I married Daina, not for the organization. We are simply in love.”

...

Su Xiao read up to this point, glancing at Eren.

”Is this...”

”Eren’s father’s wife? Then she must be Eren’s mother.”

Everyone present looked at Eren in surprise; Eren’s entire family was originally from the Marley Empire.

”I... my mother isn’t called Daina Fritz.”

Eren mumbled dazedly.

”Maybe she was your father’s ex-wife. Men often have the habit of abandoning the old for the new.”

Ymir’s sharp words cut in.

”Shut up.”

Even though Eren’s limbs had been severed, he gave a very unfriendly look.

Su Xiao continued to examine the journal.

”I will never forget this day; I have a son! I decided to name him Zeke Yeager.”

”Torn-off page...”

”The time for the host of the Titan Power to change every thirteen years is about to come. Zeke is nine this year. For years, I have been instilling him with the beliefs of the Restorationists. I decided to let Zeke participate in the selection. Though living only 20 years may seem cruel, it’s for the revival glory of Eldia.”

”Torn-off page...”

”Unbelievable, my nine-year-old son Zeke actually betrayed us, betrayed his biological parents. The Marley soldiers are already at the door.”

”Large bloodstain.”

The first journal ends here, recording Grisha Yeager’s experiences from childhood to youth. The torn pages likely contained insignificant content, which made reading easier.

Su Xiao opened the second journal.

The contents were as follows:

”I don’t know if it’s lucky or unlucky; I wasn’t turned into a Pure Titan. It was ’Owl’ who saved me, but Daina was turned into a Pure Titan, exiled forever to Paradis Island.”

”I finally learned Owl’s identity; he is one of the two soldiers who captured me and my sister when we went to see the airship in my childhood. If it weren’t for him, my sister wouldn’t have died, but why do I not hate him?”

”Owl’s name is Eren Kruger. He held the Attack Titan’s Power. Today, he passed this power onto me. After becoming a Pure Titan, I devoured him. This was supposed to be revenge, but why do I feel so sad? I will remember your name forever, Eren Kruger.”

”Owl told me the truth about ’Paradis Island’; the so-called Founding King actually signed a non-war pact with the Progenitor Titan power within him, promising never to wage war against Marley.”

”Torn-off page...”

”Infiltration into the walls was successful. The knowledge learned from the Restorationists made infiltrating inside the walls easy.”

”Should I find a woman and start a family here? It would be safer.”

”Torn-off page...”

”Met a lady named Carla Yeager at the hotel today; maybe I should pursue her, I think I’ve fallen in love.”

”Second marriage, it reminds me of Daina. I wonder how she’s doing now.”

”I now have a second son; I decided to name him Eren Yeager. Yes, this name is in memory of the deceased ’Owl,’ Eren Kruger.”

...

Reading up to this point, everyone turned their gaze to Eren.

Eren’s worldview was heavily impacted, and he stood there in shock.
