'.... So that's how it is, man.
I'll be honest with you, Eren. I am very happy with my body-strengthening art despite the restrictions it has placed on me.
So what if I had to stop practicing conventional ranking techniques? So what if I have fewer options as a Berserker when it comes to versatility?
In the end, what I do with whatever I have is more significant for me than the range of options I might have. I lost my advantages as a regular ranker. But I gained my edge as a berserker.'
Steve answered Eren's question right away. He saw no reason to hide anything from the butcher.
Eren had carefully listened to Steve's journey till here and he had to say that the berserker was gutsy for walking on his path. He pondered a bit before asking him another personal question.
'Who taught you this body-strengthening art?'
Steve answered right away, confirming Eren and Alephee's doubts.
'Hehe. It was my demon beast, Wilber. He told me to take this path.'
