What Rayan obtained from the titan that killed him was not just pure strength. It was a comprehensive physique, which included strength, endurance, stamina, and recovery ability.
As everyone knew, except for the nape of the neck, the bodies of titans could recover and regenerate from injuries. Rayan naturally inherited this to some extent.
He had once secretly cut his skin with a blade. Although it could not heal itself as quickly as a titan, a wound about half a centimeter deep healed completely overnight. This was already a pleasant surprise for him.
In this way, as long as he did not receive a fatal injury instantly, his survival rate would be very high. Therefore, even though it looked like a large chunk of his flesh had been bitten off fiercely by the wolf, while the pain was real, the damage was rapidly recovering.
Perhaps someone else with such an injury would indeed find it difficult to be a soldier, just as the doctor said, but Rayan's wound would probably heal completely in a few days. He was not worried at all.
However, it was worth mentioning that the medical level on the island was terrifyingly low. This was why Eren's father, Grisha, became a renowned medical expert not long after arriving on the island. It was like a max level trash account entering a novice village and still sweeping through everything.
Of course, Grisha was actually very skilled himself. But this kind of injury would definitely be nothing on the mainland, as it had not significantly damaged any bones.
At this moment, Krista was still sobbing softly. Clearly, she believed that if Rayan really could not be a soldier anymore, she would never be able to forgive herself. She could not forgive her own weakness and helplessness at that time.
"Alright, Krista," Rayan comforted gently. "You should go and rest."
"No"
Because of her twisted right ankle, she walked with a limp and came to Rayan's bedside, looking at him stubbornly.
"I want to take care of you until your injury is completely healed"
Rayan wanted to say that it really was not necessary, but the girl's lake blue eyes were full of determination, leaving him no choice but to swallow his words.
"Then I will have to trouble you"
Hearing him say this, Krista suddenly felt a sense of relief in her heart.
She needed to hear those words because they made her feel a little better.
Even a scolding like "It is all your fault that I ended up like this" would have made the mountain of guilt weighing on her heart feel lighter than words of comfort like "I am fine really I am fine."
She looked at Rayan, who was now lowering his eyes, his long curled eyelashes slightly obscuring his jet black pupils. She really liked his eyes. They were rare. Among so many of their year, only he and Mikasa had such eyes.
Like black gemstones, staring into them seemed to draw you into their deep darkness.
"Rayan, are you tired? Get some sleep first. I will be right here. If you need anything, I will get it for you."
"Hey, I have not reached the point of being half paralyzed. My legs are fine," Rayan sighed, raising his eyes to look at her. "Besides, what can you get for me with your injured leg? Go and rest."
"I..."
Creak.
The door was pushed open, and Ymir walked in. She looked at the two of them and frowned slightly.
"Krista, your sprain means you should not move. What are you doing?"
"Ymir, I was just... ah"
Before Krista could finish speaking, Ymir walked over and picked her up in a princess carry. Then she walked to the bed next to Rayan's and put her down, saying seriously,
"Do not move around."
"But"
"But what? The shorty just injured his arm, he is not half paralyzed."
Both Krista and Rayan fell into a slight silence.
The latter thought that it was fine for him to say that about himself, but it felt very unpleasant when someone else said it.
Ymir moved a chair from the table and sat down by Krista's bed.
"Go to sleep."
"Ymir..."
The girl was deeply moved at this moment, but Ymir just smiled slightly and did not say much.
Rayan on the other side had already laid down flat and closed his eyes to sleep.
Krista glanced at Rayan and, seeing that he was resting, also lay down.
However, even though she felt very tired, she was not sleepy at all.
Her mind was still full of the dangerous scene and the words Ymir and Rayan had said to her later.
She turned her head and saw Ymir quietly looking at her, a hint of something she could not understand in her eyes, as if she were looking at her past self.
"Ymir," she asked softly, "what should I do..."
She seemed to be asking her and also asking herself.
Her identity was too special and involved too many things.
And as Ymir said, she could not live openly and honestly.
She could not even use her real name.
"You have to figure that out yourself," Ymir heard her and did not joke around. "You have to think it through yourself."
"It is a very long process," Ymir gently took Krista's hand. "But it is okay. I will walk this path with you."
"Yeah"
Krista smiled, squeezed her hand, and slowly fell asleep with a smile on her face.
Ymir looked at her sleeping face and sighed softly. Then she turned her head to look at Rayan, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.
She remembered the look in Rayan's eyes when Krista was attacked by the wolf.
"At that time, why did you look at me with that kind of look..."
The next day.
Rayan got up early and went outside. In a secluded spot, he secretly unwrapped the bandages and took a look.
Sure enough, as he expected, the wound on his arm had already healed about one fifth. At this rate, it would probably heal completely in a week.
Obviously, this defied the human body's natural healing efficiency.
After taking a look, he immediately rewrapped the bandages.
He did not want anyone else to know about this, especially the warrior trio.
Currently, humans did not know that people could turn into titans, so naturally, they also did not know that even if a human who could transform into a titan was reduced to a human stump, as long as they had the stamina, their body would return to normal after transforming and then detransforming.
This was truly unbelievable, so humans could not even imagine it right now.
But the warrior trio was different.
If they knew that Rayan could heal quickly, they might make some wrong judgments.
For example, considering Rayan as their target to capture on the island, the Founding Titan.
That would be terrible.
The current Rayan was no match for intelligent titans, let alone ordinary ones.
You had to know that outside the walls, he was eaten by an eight meter class titan, and what power did an eight meter class ordinary titan have to contend with an intelligent titan?
None.
So if Rayan was targeted by the warrior trio, he would only have a dead end.
This was why he had to hide it carefully.
Of course, if he really noticed any signs of trouble, he would try to strike first.
That was right, intelligent titans were indeed powerful.
But when they were not transformed, were they not just ordinary humans with mortal flesh?
