Chapter 37 - An Inevitable Choice

As Alva finish his story the girls were crying and Alva said, "That ruthless King is King Diliego and he wants to participate the war along the Myrmidon Kingdom to lend the same faith that our country experience, I use my spare time to look around town and protect the people for the past 4 years as the Masked Butler and because of that the people are now at ease, that is the reason why I can't join you Shino, his reign need to end first" Shino then added, "but you can't just take him out because there are no next in line" Alva was flustered and said, "Ye-yeah, tha-that is right, hehe" Shino was disappointed when he notice Alva's action and said, "You are going dethrone the king without an exchange in throne?" Alva then said, "Well… the king has Shadow element and finding a way to take him down is really hard, and the exchange in throne doesn't really come to my mind" Shino sigh and said, "A kingdom won't function without a King" Pyra who was crying then said, "Then we just need to find someone who is compatible for the throne then take him out right?" Chico replied, "saying it easy but doing it is going to be hard, where do you exactly find a person suitable to be the next king?" everyone was thinking hard Sora then said, "To get Doc with us he need to defeat the current king, but if he is going to defeat the king we need a replacement, and the problem is we don't know who it is the replacement, what a predicament" Robin while wiping her tears said, "can we just ask the people?" Shino replied, "No, the king will notice it" Chico then said, "but it doesn't look like that this place has been in that nightmare" Alva replied, "because the king hide that fact by using fear" Shino then asked, "Fear?" Alva replied, "A threat to one's life, the king will sentence death to does who tell the outsider about the fact that he murder countless people" Sora then said, "Why did you tell us about the fact that the king kill countless people? Doesn't that make you his enemy now? and us" Shino then said, "If the law can't see you then the law is nothing, beside he is being hunted already but they just don't know that" Alva chuckles and said, "That kind of mind, are you a rule-breaker or what?"

They now know Alva's reason why he fight as the masked butler, Alva then said, "Shino you need to know this information" Alva pulled out a folded paper and he handed it to Shino, Alva then said, "the fleet of battle ship you saw earlier was going to depart tomorrow night" Shino open the paper and saw the numbers of all Ship and the total number of Soldier on board and said, "A total of Five thousand soldier and Fifteen battle ships with Thirty escort, where did he get this many military power?" Alva replied, "That is thanks to the allied country that give him a budget to haul that many soldier, the ship is made by the Shipwright of this country, you just sink one battle ship but they can replace it for they have back up at the ship building area on the other side of the port" Shino replied, "So we don't have time too, they will sail towards Troy kingdom at night" Sora then asked, "Why don't we sink all of it?" Shino then said, "Sinking a fleet is not going to be easy, gunshot is going to be everywhere if you attack one they can just sink that ship that you attack and they can replace the sink one with the back-up ship" Robin then said, "Well looks like we are going to fight, what is the plan Shino?" every one look at Shino, Chico and Sora said, "We can move now Shino, just give out your order" but they were shock when Shino said, "we can't fight either" Chico then asked, "What? Why Shino?" Shino replied, "If we manage to sink all the ship, it will lead to the downfall of the king" Robin then said, "Why do we need the king anyway Shino?" Shino replied, "Without a king the kingdom will be doom for they don't have anyone to follow, even if that king is ruthless, a king is a must in a kingdom or a peacemaker who can temporally be the leader as they found a new king" Alva then said, "so you're saying Shino is…." Shino replied, "Yes, It is either the Troy kingdom or the Mayan kingdom, one will fall and one will survive"

They are faced with a choice that will be the fate of a country, if they won't make a move Scatillia's home will fall and if they decided to make a move Alva's home will fall, Chico then request a solution for this problem, "I know what we need to do, Alva, princess, play Rock-Paper-Scissor, if Alva win then his country will be save, if the prinscess…." Robin hit Chico and said, "We can't decide the fate of a country by playing some games you idiot" all of them are serious now and can't really decide when Nensho said, "Master I hear something" Shino then said, "huh? What do you here?" Nensho replied, "Footstep and something that is crackling, I don't really get it" Shino then said, "Huh? Crackling?" Shino then look around and his action caught the attention of everyone then Shino asked Alva, "Doc, do you know what a sparkler is?" Alva replied, "Sparkler? Is that some sort of fireworks?" Shino then said, "I'll take that as No, Sora…" but before Shino tell his order an explosion happen and they were caught unguarded, unable to defend from the explosion all of them was unconscious except for Shino, before the explosion happen on that split second Shino controlled the explosion to where they won't die but it was not enough to get the other to stay conscious, all of them was down and can't move, Shino who is still conscious saw that an army in front of him and the entire clinic was blown into smithereens and what he last heard was, A laughing voice saying, "Isn't your king genius? I took down every single person on that formidable clan, and what more I take care of the princess, ahahahahha" Shino passed out thinking, "I'll have my revenge…"
