Eren entrusted Naya with the final strikes against both Carvel and Akass.
It not only allowed her to avenge Birmond's death but also provided her with an unexpected catharsis, soothing a sense of unrest she hadn't recognized within herself.
"I still find it hard to believe that Birmond's experiences and Elemental Attainments ended up with you," Naya materialized beside Eren, her voice gentle and contemplative.
Eren responded with a faint smile, his eyes showing a hint of amusement.
"Well, I didn't set out to acquire Birmond's powers personally. It just happened that the chance was there, and I took it. Hope you get my perspective," Eren said, his shoulders lifting in a nonchalant shrug. He moved around Akass' lifeless body, studying it with keen interest. Even in death, the massive wyvern emanated an aura of danger through lingering mana signatures.
"I don't mind. In fact, it's better this way."
