I hasted without food and water for a long time until I saw Levi and few soldiers camping nearby. Finally, I felt some relief.

Thank God I have brought some food and a sleeping bag. I consumed them and rested there. Completely hidden from Levi and his men.

It was new day, and we were near Reiss' hideout. I somehow reached earlier than them and hid somewhere, out of their sight. "Who are they searching for?" I asked myself.

"Heichou!" a random soldier cried, "Here!".

Levi and team went near a tree, I was a bit far behind bushes, so that nobody sees me, but their conversations were pretty audible.

"Alright, everyone! you all are dismissed. Go out and check for intruders. I'll have a talk with Kenny today." Levi ordered.

They came for Kenny? After the other soldiers left, I got view of Kenny. He is heavily injured in the process, receiving severe burns all over his body from Rod's transformation. Levi's back was facing me.

"So we meet again, Kenny" Levi began, " Getting straight to point, tell why? Why?"

"So we meet again, Kenny" Levi began, " Getting straight to point, tell why? Why?"

Kenny began, "Months before we met the first time. I went to meet my Grandpa. He was on brink of dying. He explained me about Ackermans, then informed me that why many Ackermans used to be killed, and how the surviving Ackermans united in a village to stay close. He also told that the one of the two remaining Ackerman families left and are probably staying in or near Shiganshina District." He's probably talking about my family. "And other being us, right?" Levi enquired. Kenny nodded in agreement while coughing.

"After knowing about history of Ackermans, I went to avenge us. I broke into the Royal Castle, I succeeded in killing Alma Reiss, mother of Historia. Then I was about to kill that blonde child, but Rod tricked me and told she is Christa. Then I was about to kill Rod, but his brother, Uri, intervened. He converted into partial Titan and grabbed me. I used my knife skills, gifted by my ancestors to me, and almost killed Uri. To my surprise, he understood that I was an Ackerman and bowed before me. He felt guilty of actions of his ancestors, and apologised to me. Then we became friends. I worked for him.

One day, I decided to meet Kuchel, so I decided to meet her in the Underworld, but before that, I went to meet my Grandpa, who later died. I guess, he was alive to tell me the whole story only."

Kenny laughed in pain, then continued, "I asked Grandpa whether the family in Shiganshina needs our help or not. He replied that he will be my third cousin, nothing much. Plus he raised a family and is living his life well, so no issues for him. I thought at least someone's life was going well.

Then I asked him Kuchel's location. He paused for a few moments. He told Kuchel was bankrupted and has started working as a prostitute in Underworld." 

Kenny was silent and a serious look came on his face. I saw Levi's fingers coming together in unison, making his fist like a ball.

"Then I went to Kuchel's home, where I saw you. Hair all grown, body like a skeleton, skin dried. Like a malnutritioned child."
