I was the most skilled trainee of my class — sharp, disciplined, and undefeated in combat. When I joined the Survey Corps, I expected my talent to earn me recognition, but instead I was pitted against the one man who overshadowed everyone: Captain Levi. From the moment we met, sparks flew in the worst way — he saw me as arrogant and reckless, while I saw him as condescending and controlling. Training under him became a battle of wills, each of us pushing the other to the edge, the rivalry growing sharper with every sparring match and mission.
