Leaving Anfang P1

"I owe you a favor, Eren, which I would repay in Labh Salem."

Eliza said while looking into Eren's eyes. There was no prideful tone in her voice anymore. However, one could still feel that Eliza was trying to keep her dignity intact as she conversed with Eren.

"But after I'm done repaying that favor, my obligations end. I hope we can part ways after that. Not as enemies but as allies," she said as she looked in Alephee's direction. During the last nine months, she had come to understand that she had underestimated this homunculus that Eren had created.

The Witch of the Enderflames also knew that Eren listened to Alephee. Some of his crucial decisions were influenced by her suggestions and recommendations. It was Alephee who had asked him to spare Eliza. And it was also she who had suggested to Eren that he should visit Labh Salem despite the dangers awaiting him there.
