The Wings Of Freedom

 is the first chapter of Attack on Titan: No Regrets, written by Gan Sunāku and illustrated by Hikaru Suruga.

Summary
The chapter begins shortly after where the prologue left off with Levi, Farlan Church, and Isabel Magnolia being pursued by the Survey Corps in year 844, all of them utilizing Three Dimensional Maneuver Gear. The three delinquents skillfully maneuver their way through the Underground District, but the Survey Corps members are not so easily eluded.

Refusing to be caught, the three choose to split up, but, despite some complicated navigating by Levi, he is tracked down by Erwin Smith and Mike Zacharius, and the three engage in a brief brawl. During the struggle, Erwin manages to cut one of Levi's cables, preventing him from fleeing. Levi attempts to resist capture, but stands down upon seeing that Farlan and Isabel have already been apprehended.

With Levi and his allies restrained, Erwin questions them on where they obtained their 3DMG, and how they became so skilled at using it. Levi remains defiantly silent, but after Mike roughly interrogates him, Isabel and Farlan reveal that they taught themselves. Impressed by Levi's ability and willpower, Erwin proposes a deal with him: if Levi were to join the Survey Corps, Erwin will not turn him and his companions over to the Military Police. Seeing that he is no position to refuse, Levi accepts.
