The Beginning of the End IV

The Beginning of the End IV

" What!!!" King Grisha shouted to his poor messenger,  " Are you serious right now? That can't be true, How the heck is the scripture missing. If that goes in the wrong hand, it's the end. You know the council, even if I am a King they could kick me out. That's why I move so secretly and now it's missing, if you can't find it until tomorrow expect yourself to be executed."
He angrily said to the shaking messenger.

The messenger nodded and immediately left, stressing himself about what will happen to him, he began ordering people around to find the scripture but too bad for him, the scripture has been delivered to Eren Yeager.

Armin doesn't feel any pity for the poor messenger because he knows what he is doing and he decided to support the viscious king, Armin could only shake his head in disappointment as he watch it from his room. He look around, to the Painting of Annie Leonhart on his wall, he painted it by himself Incase they won't meet each other ever again, since he hadn't step on Paradis for months now and it's been so long since the last time they saw each other.

He began walking to his room, Shall he travel Paradis again to see her? But he couldn't risk it, Zeke threatened him before that if he speaks to her again.
He would kill her well, well, she's strong but still. He felt proud when she kick the person holding her in the balls. It made him even more attractive in his point of view. Ah, he wants to see the person who hurts her before so that he could feed him to the crocodiles.

"Master Armin, " The maid call him, " Your breakfast is here, I prepare tea for you too. "

" Just out it there, " He replied to the maid.

" I heard you are going to Paradis." The maid said, "Are you going to see someone there?"

" Yes, why are you asking?" The maid pout at him.

" Nothing, I just-- please let me serve you more."

" But didn't you want to Poison me before?"

" It was an order to test you, Master besides I really want to work with you and I want to meet the woman who puts a bright smile on your face. It's not enough to see her in the portraits you make, I think she's more beautiful than the painting."

  " Well, you are right about that." He nodded his head, " I don't ant anymore trouble. I will only help when he needs me, I just need to find out anyway."  The maid nodded in worry, " But Mr. Arlert -"

" Didn't we agree that you won't call me Arlert, if they find out that there is a survivor, they will order for my death too."

" But, don't you think what they done to your family is unfair?" The maid ask sadly.

He shakes his head and sigh,
" I don't think it's unfair but I think it's inhumane and cruel and they deserve the punishment if death too but I'm not the one running the justice."

" It's rotten, the palace is rotten. That's why Paradis fell down into ruins." The servant told him, he stop in his tracks and look back.

" The Paradis is What?" He ask in disbelief.

" You didn't know? I thought you know that's why you are going to Paradis. The Palace fell into ruin when the Princess decided to escape, the people were on a rally. Some of them u fortunately died during the chaos in Paradis, I thought all people around the world knows that thing. " Armin's heart dropped, it felt like the whole world came crashing down on him.

"I will go to Paradis now, Edin will you prepare my things?" He said to the Servant, her name is Edin.  Edin nodded at him and began preparing. " It seems like you love her too much that you will run into chaos just to rescue her, Master." The servant told him with a smile, " I will prepare food on your way sir."
