Chapter 85: Unseal...

Eren did not tell anyone about the Pendant of Strength and Pendant of Protection. Even Xiu Ying wasn't told about this.

These two things were his life saving treasures. Knowing about them was no different than making them useless.

If someone knew that he could only use the Pendant of Protection twice, they could simply attack him three times with enough strength to kill him and there was no escape for him.

That's why he kept that secret to himself. But he did not expect to end up in a situation where he needed someone to attack him.

He thought that Xiu Ying was going to attack. His Pendant of Protection was going to protect him from that attack while Astral might be hurt.

If luck was on his side, he could attack weakened Astral with the Pendant of Strength. But Xiu Ying was more worried about him than about her own life.
