Chapter 13 - 【Reconciliation And Explanations】

To say the least, when Hanji was about to ask a question yesterday, Cale....fainted....from stress....and fatigue.

Eren managed to calm Choi Han from going berserk from insanity, while Armin calmed his uncle down from screaming.

Now which leads to the current situation.

"You're Historia?"

Choi Han was surprised, he only met her once and heard about the little girl from Frieda's stories. And his uncle, Rod, said it was only the two of them left in the noble household.

"You're Han Reiss, right? That makes you my older half-brotherㅡ"

"No!" Choi Han didn't meant to shout as Historia flinched.

"W-what I meant is, I'm not your brother. I'm your cousin is what I mean. Uncle Rod is not my father, but Uri Reiss."

Historia scrunched her eyebrows in confusion, the people watching them kept eating Alberu's cookies as they had a look of eagerness at the way the family drama unfolds.

"Hold up. I thought Rod Reiss was your father?" Levi interfered.

"W-well, that was what I thought too. But I only learnt it after my...father died." The word 'father' feels foreign to Choi Han's tongue.

"Knowing you, you should've searched for ChrisㅡHistoria long ago if you learned her existence."

Choi Han nodded, "Yes. But uncle said he and I were the only Reiss left. He didn't said that Historia was alive!"

"You know me?" She asked after noticing that the raven is familiar with her.

"Yes? Knowing Frieda, she must've told stories to you about meㅡ"

"But I didn't met anyone named Frieda." Historia said with an indifferent tone.

Choi Han became silent before something clicked in his mind then sighed.

"I see...that's why you don't remember me..." Choi Han fell in a state of contemplation, scowling internally at the girl he'd grown to know as an older sister(wherever she is).

"What do you mean...?"

Choi Han scratched his head, "Then...uhmm...excuse me."

The raven placed a hand at Historia's head as if patting her. The blonde girl was silent, as everyone waited for the next scene to unfold.

Tears fell from her eyes, forcing not to sob as he looked at Choi Han who held a melancholic gaze towards her younger cousin in this world.

She somehow reminds him of Choi Jung Soo, now that he thinks.

"I was never alone..."

Choi Han was surprised at the next second, because Historia hugged him while she kept crying. He returned the gesture albeit awkwardly.

"I'm sorry I'm late..." Choi Han voiced out.

Jean and Connie sniffed as they tried their best to hide their own tears. Eren was beyond amused and teased Jean by saying a horse was actually crying, while Sasha laughed hysterically at Connie.

"Instructor-nim." Alberu called, there was a serious look on his face.

"What should we do about Miss Carla? Does your uncle know where she is, seeing that he lied about your cousin being alive." Alberu said in Roan language.

Choi Han pursed his lips, "She's safe. Should I go get her Your Highness?"

Everyone looked between the two as they exchanged languages they don't understand. They couldn't interfere as they gulped at the seriousness the two of them were emitting.
