1 month had passed since the new year's,
Everything was going smoothly with the local citizens and the training.
The current ruler of the walls said "Arean, read this ridiculous letter sent by someone outside of the walls." He throws a letter to Arean, The current commander of the scout regiment.
"Yes sir."
He opens the letter,
"To the founder himself,
From the Shogun embodied with the beast titan,
I would like to challenge the island inside the walls in a death battle, we fight till one team surrenders and dies.
By the time you recieve this letter, we should be around 1 week away from your location, send your best troops to fight us, we are waiting."
"Sir, This.."
"I know what you're about to say, but it's not the time to worry about it, Train your soldiers, overwork them, let the new scouts dedicate their life to this."
"But sir-"
"No buts, You have to do it." The king goes back to his throne and sits on it.
"Roger."
Arean leaves the king's mansion and uses his MDG gear to travel faster to the scouts rather than walking.
"We still have one week, there's no time to lose." He rushed faster releasing gas to go faster.
Upon reaching the centre of the island, where the scout regiment resides, he instantly asks the nobles to prepare an audience for the new news.
"But Arean, it's not possible right away!"
"Do everything you can, I need to talk to the scouts as soon as possible."
"Yes sir." He backs down.
Arean sighs as he leans back on his chair.
The audience requested by Arean was gathered near the centre of the island.
Kuramoto and the others walk towards the place and try to inquire what was going on.
"Sir, why are people gathered here?" He asked a scout.
"Don't you know, Sir Arean is going to deliver a speech."
"Thanks." He goes back to his friends to tell them what's up.
Yoru says, "Let's stay here and listen to what he has to say."
After a period of time,
Arean takes up the stage and begins telling the scouts about what was going on.
"SCOUTS! OUR MAIN FOCUS IS THE BEAST TITAN!"
Everyone, fired with determination, yelled "DEDICATE YOUR HEART! DEDICATE YOUR HEART!"
"TODAY! OUR SPECIAL GUEST IS KURAMOTO, THE LAST ENCOUNTER WITH THE REAPER HAD SHOWED US WHAT A NIGHTMARE TITANS CAN SHOW US!"
Kuramoto flinched, "Me?" Pointing a finger to himself.
"WITH KURAMOTO'S SPECIAL SKILLS! WE CAN DEFINITELY WIN THIS! KURAMOTO! IF YOURE HERE, PLEASE COME UPON THE STAGE!"
He flinched yet once again, but his friends were cheering for him.
"Go! You can do it!" Encouraged Vaericha.
He walks up the stage and stands beside Arean.
"This! This young lad is going to save us from the thousand years of destruction and terror caused from those titans and the other nations!"
"THIS BOY!? ISNT HE THE ONE WITH THE TERRIFYING ABILITIES!?" Yelled one of the scouts.
"Yes! You're right! But if we can use him to our advantage! He is not dangerous at all!" He replied.
Kuramoto felt at ease learning that someone believes in him.
"I will do everything I can do about it. But my magic power has a limit, and I can only transform to my max limit for 10 seconds at most."
"Not a problem at all, just use whatever else strategies you have! Just try to win, if things get too out of hand you can use it."
"Sounds fair enough."
"SCOUTS! YOU'RE DISMISSED! DEDICATE YOUR HEART!"
Everyone leaves including arean, leaving only Kuramoto and the two.
"You think you can do it?"
"I don't believe in myself, but I believe in both of you, kill me if I go out of control." He said, to both of them.
Vaericha replied "No! Kill you!? I can't do it.. You're my dear friend, I cannot kill you!"
But yoru maintained a cold face even if she felt sad at the bottom of her heart.
"Well? Think you can do it?"
"Obviously not. Even if the world turns against you, we are always there for you, right Yoru?" Asked Vaericha.
"Ofcourse, unless you go overboard."
"We have our evening training right?"
"Oh yeah! I forgot!"
"Let's go."
They run a race on who gets there first.
And as always, Vaericha was the last..
