Chapter 18 – Rest, Plots, Outside Forces
At the castle that was the old Survey Corps headquarters, a majority of the soldiers were enjoying some much needed R&R. All of the new recruits, especially, but many of the veterans were also taking time to relax and bask in the success of their expedition. Success like this was something to celebrate, of course, it was Eldia’s first step in reclaiming Wall Maria…and eventually all of the land of Paradis Island…but the sheer fact that there had been zero casualties (something none of the veterans had ever thought possible) was something great to celebrate in and of itself.
“You think we’ll get anything from the higher ups?” Connie asked as he looked at the playing cards in his hands.
“Maybe?” Marco replied as he discarded two cards and was given two more from the deck by the dealer (Mina).
Jean scoffed a little, both at his hand and what his two friends were talking about. “Unlikely.” He tossed three cards onto the table and Mina gave him three from the deck. “The higher ups were all for killing Eren and the others before; the only reason they were left alive was to ‘prove they were useful to humanity’.” He quoted while looking at his new cards. “Even succeeding as well as we all did will probably just be considered as fulfilling their agreement.” He looked at the other players flatly.
“You’re probably right, Jean.” Samuel sighed as he laid his cards facedown on the table. “I fold.”
Connie huffed a bit. “We sealed the breach in Shiganshina! They should at least be thankful for that much, shouldn’t they?”
Thomas shrugged once. “Not like we can really do anything about it.” He laid his hand out for everyone to see. “Two pair.”
“Let’s just enjoy the downtime we have right now, you guys.” Mina said with a grin, keeping the mood light and happy as best as she could.
“Three of a kind!” Connie agreed with Mina by showing off his hand.
Jean smirked a little. “Flush.” He showed off the five cards, all diamonds.
Connie groaned. “Damn it.”
“What’ve you got, Marco?” Jean looked at his buddy, sure of his victory in this hand.
Marco placed his cards on the table. “Full house.” He smiled at the others around the table.
“Fucking hell…” Jean hung his head as the pot (just some pocket money that the new soldiers had) went to Marco.
Everyone at the table got a chuckle out of Jean’s disappointment as the next round of poker began.
-Elsewhere in the Castle-
“Mmmnnn~” Hange moaned as she lay back in bed, one hand buried in Eren’s hair as he was between her thighs, showing her the skills that came with having so many lovers. “Eren~”
Eren continued to lavish Hange’s pussy with his lips and tongue, finding her sweet spots one by one and making her moan and roll her hips.
“She’s going to come undone soon.” Ymir grinned as she watched Eren pleasure Hange. She stroked Historia’s slick sex, the shortest of their family sitting in her lap, and smiled when Historia cooed in bliss.
“Ymir~” Historia breathed out as the taller girl’s fingers delved into her heated core.
Sasha was keeping herself occupied by lightly nibbling on Mikasa’s neck and enjoying the soft moans that Mikasa let out. “Eren’s really good at it. She’s lasted longer than I thought she would.” Sasha giggled as she kissed the spot that she’d been nibbling. Her hands were playing with Mikasa’s tits, gently teasing her lover’s nipples.
“Uh-huh…” Mikasa agreed with a breathy sigh, pressing her breasts into Sasha’s hands more firmly.
“Maybe she’ll calm down for a little while.” Annie commented, sitting on the end of the bed that Hange was lying on while Eren ate her out. With not a stitch of clothing on her body, Annie was clearly waiting for her turn with Eren, showing off her tits and keeping her blue eyes firmly locked on Eren as he practically feasted on Hange’s sex.
Hange suddenly thrashed a bit, her hips bucking upwards for a second before Eren’s hands held her thighs in place as he buried his tongue inside of her. “EREN!!!” Hange screamed for a brief second, only to have her mouth covered by Annie’s hand. As Hange collapsed back to the bed, light twitches coming from her body as she exhaled through her nose, there was a faraway look of bliss in her brown eyes.
“Hah…” Eren pulled back from Hange’s twitching sex. “Delicious.” He teased his newest lover playfully; hearing Hange mewl as Annie removed her hand from the other woman’s mouth. He stood up, his length at full mast and nearly bobbing in Annie’s face with how close they were.
Annie leaned forward enough to place a kiss on the tip, smearing her lips with Eren’s precum before licking it off with a sexy moan. “Don’t tease me, Eren.”
Eren grinned at Annie before gently pushing her back on the bed next to Hange. Annie eagerly spread her legs as Eren got onto the bed as well and settled himself between her thighs.
“Mnh…” Annie failed to hold back a gasp as Eren’s cock pressed against her wet sex.
“Ready, Annie?” Eren asked as he leaned over her, looking directly into her eyes.
Annie nodded, not trusting her voice, as she wrapped her arms around Eren’s shoulders.
Eren pressed himself into Annie’s heat, easing himself deeper and deeper as Annie clutched onto him tightly. “Fuck…” He breathed out as he buried himself to the hilt inside of Annie. Their bodies were flush together now, her perky and soft tits molding against his defined pectorals, while both of them reveled in the heat and sensation of being together again.
“Eren…yes…” Annie moaned hotly into his ear, wrapping her legs around his hips to keep him as close as possible. “More~”
“Mine.” Eren whispered into Annie’s ear, making her tighten her hold on him, before he stole her lips in a deep kiss.
“Mmnnn~” Annie readily gave in to Eren’s lips as he pulled his hips back, almost leaving her depths completely, before he thrust forward again, burying his full length into Annie in one intense thrust. “MMM!!!” Annie moaned into their kiss before their lips finally separated and she gasped for breath.
Their pace quickly picked up from there, both of them moving together, their rhythm fast and intense as they stared into each other’s eyes. Annie rolled her hips into each of Eren’s powerful thrusts, taking him to the hilt every time. Eren increased the intensity as his hands drifted down Annie’s sides, leaving trails of heat and pleasure in their wake, before he grabbed her ass and pulled her into his thrusts even more.
The sound of their coupling was getting louder as the rest of their ‘family’ watched on, getting even more excited and eager.
“I want that~” Sasha moaned hotly into Mikasa’s ear.
“Yes…me too~” Mikasa mewled as Sasha’s left hand found her needy sex and began to work her up even more.
Historia let out a sinfully sexy moan as Ymir brought her over the edge. The stimulation, both physical and visual, was just too much.
Ymir was nearly panting as she turned Historia’s chin and kissed her soundly while the blonde trembled in her lap.
“Eren…more, more…fuck!” Annie wanted, no, she needed more of Eren. More of his touch, his taste, his cock, everything!
Eren stole her breath as he redoubled his efforts, his thrusts hitting every single one of her spots over and over again until Annie was seeing spots in her vision. “Here it comes…Annie!” He buried himself into her deepest spot and filled her with his seed.
“AAAMmmmm…” Annie’s cry of ecstasy was swallowed up as Hange quickly leaned over and captured her lips in a deep kiss, their tongues meeting in Annie’s mouth. Annie came even harder from the sensation and her body shook and trembled in orgasm; her legs tightly locked around Eren’s hips to keep him buried inside her pussy as he filled her womb to the brim with his thick seed.
Eren panted as he felt sweat running down his forehead. He looked down at Annie, seeing her bangs matted to her forehead from sweat after their intense lovemaking. Hange was grinning at Annie’s nearly delirious expression, leaving a kiss on her cheek for good measure.
“Me next, lover~” Ymir whispered into Eren’s ear hotly before she nibbled on it gently, leaning against his back as Annie’s limp legs slowly released Eren’s hips.
Eren proved he still had plenty of stamina as he turned and kissed Ymir deeply, their tongues engaging in an intense battle for a long moment. Ymir found herself pushed against the wall and pressed her hands against it before throwing her ass backwards to trap Eren’s hard cock between her cheeks.
“Ymir~” Eren growled into her ear as he thrust between her ass multiple times.
Ymir had a sexy grin on her lips as she looked at Erne over her shoulder. “Take me, Eren!”
Eren needed no further invitation as he positioned himself and then thrust powerfully into Ymir’s soaked core.
“Fuck! Yes, Eren…” Ymir cried out as Eren’s length sank deeper and deeper into her pussy. “Deep as you can…I love it~”
“You’d think she was a Beast Type with how much she loves getting rutted.” Sasha teased Ymir’s preferences for intimacy.
Mikasa grabbed a handful of Sasha’s ass, making the brunette hum in pleasure, and looked into Sasha’s eyes. “Be nice.” She said before kissing Sasha, their lips parting to deepen their kiss a few seconds later.
“Wow…” Historia mumbled as she watched Eren and Ymir’s nearly animalistic fucking. Even though she’d just climaxed a short time ago, one of her hands trailed down to her pussy to tease it while her other began to tweak one of her nipples.
The sound of Eren’s hips meeting Ymir’s ass grew louder as the two got more into their rhythm together. Every time that Eren thrust forward, Ymir threw her hips backwards to meet him, resulting in a loud smacking sound. The roughness never failed to tear loud and eager moans of passion from Ymir’s throat.
“Yes! Yes, yes, yes…fuck me, Eren!” Ymir cried out as she felt her arms almost giving out, her hands splayed against the wall as Eren pummeled her core with his cock.
“Ymir!” Eren leaned forward, one hand remaining on Ymir’s hip to pull her back into his powerful thrusts, the other quickly found one of her swaying tits and grabbed it, groping and fondling it just as Ymir liked. As Ymir cried out in bliss from the new stimulation, she turned her head and kissed Eren heatedly.
Hange was taking notes in her mind as she watched the intense and powerful coupling going on right in front of her. “Lucky~” She moaned as she played with one of her tits, her other hand was preoccupied with stroking Annie’s body, teasing the other woman’s tits occasionally as she slowly recovered her wits.
The speed and power behind Eren’s thrusts picked up as each thrust became shorter. Ymir knew exactly what that meant and a sultry moan passed her lips to spew forth her desires. “Inside! I want it all inside me, Eren~”
“Take it!” Eren nearly growled into Ymir’s ear as he pushed as deep into her as possible, practically pressing up against her womb, and filled her with his molten seed.
“Yesh~” Ymir’s slurred exclamation of bliss and joy as she crashed over the edge with Eren was only silenced as Eren pulled her upright, her back against his chest, and kissed her soundly. Ymir shook and spasmed in ecstasy as Eren continued to pump her full of his cum, small thrusts from him pushing his seed ever deeper into her stuffed womb.
Eren gently laid Ymir on the bed, Hange grinning as she lightly trailed her fingers over the taller woman’s heated skin.
“He really messed you up, huh?” Hange teased the out-of-it Ymir.
“Eren.” Mikasa said from behind Eren.
Before Eren could respond, he was spun around and forced to sit on the bed.
“Hey…” Annie, now back in the world of the living, grumbled as she had to move her legs to make room. She was still enjoying the fading afterglow and didn’t want to move at all.
“Mikasa! Sasha!” Eren groaned out as the two women were kneeling between his legs and lavishing his half-hard cock with their eager tongues. He placed a hand gently atop each of their heads, slowly running his fingers through their hair as they cleaned his length, tasting the combination of himself and Ymir.
Sasha pulled back for a second to lick her lips. “Mmm…not bad~” She moaned lowly before dragging her tongue from base to tip in one long lick.
Mikasa cleaned ever millimeter of Eren’s cock that she could reach with her tongue. “Eren’s taste…” She breathed out, her hot breath making Eren’s cock twitch and throb visibly.
“Fuck…” Eren hissed out as he watched Mikasa and Sasha both lick the head of his cock together, their tongues meeting over and over against before they engaged in a sinfully sloppy tongue kiss with his tip between them.
“Hop up there, Mikasa…” Sasha breathed out once they separated from each other and Eren’s dick. “I know you want too~”
Mikasa pecked Sasha’s cheek in thanks and was in Eren’s lap not a second later. “Erenmmmph!” She was going to say something, but Eren’s lips cut her off as he kissed her. She moaned into their kiss when Eren’s hands trailed down her back and took hold of her ass.
“Mine.” Eren said as he squeezed Mikasa’s perfect, heart-shaped ass. He kissed and nibbled on her neck, laying further claim to her body.
“Yours!” Mikasa agreed wholeheartedly. “Always…forever…” She panted out while tilting her head to the side to give Eren more access to her neck. She eagerly ground her soaked sex against Eren’s hard cock, moaning and cooing at the shocks of pleasure that it gave her.
Sasha giggled as she climbed onto the bed and kissed Hange’s lips. When the two pulled back, Sasha grinned sexily at Hange. “Are you gonna eat that?” She pointed at Annie’s well-fucked pussy that was slowly leaking globs of Eren’s seed.
Hange matched Sasha’s naughty grin. “I was thinking I’d have this one.” She pointed at Ymir who was only now coming out of her daze.
“Ooohhh~” Ymir suddenly moaned and it was easy to see why.
Historia was between Ymir’s thighs, her cute tongue gently running up and down Ymir’s pussy to collect all of the thick seed that was starting to leak out of her. “Mm, mine.” Historia said with half-lidded eyes as she kissed Ymir’s clit.
“Naughty!” Hange laughed at seeing that she’d been beaten to the punch.
Sasha was between Annie’s thighs a second later. “First come, first served!”
“Sasha!” Annie put her hand atop Sasha’s head and gave a token resistance to the other woman before letting her lover lick her pussy. “Mmnnn…fuck…”
“Mmm, nothing like a good cream pie~” Sasha teased as she pulled back for a second. Annie’s entire face went red at the lewd remark, but she tossed her head back to moan when Sasha buried her face into her stuffed sex.
Hange playfully pouted at being beaten to the punch on both Annie and Ymir before she spotted a new target. With a grin, she slipped off the bed and got behind Historia.
“Aaahhh!” Historia let out a yelp that turned into a moan as she briefly looked over her shoulder to see Hange spreading her cute little ass cheeks wide. “Hange…noooo~” She moaned as Hange quickly started ‘researching’ what Historia liked with her tongue.
Mikasa made the bed shake a bit as Eren switched their positions and laid her back on the mattress. “Eren!” Mikasa breathed out as he took hold of her strong thighs and pushed them upwards.
Eren knew exactly what Mikasa liked and her absolute favorite position was the Mating Press! He pushed Mikasa’s legs upwards until they practically framed her tits, her needy pussy on full display to Eren. “Ready, Mikasa?” He asked, his green eyes nearly burning as he held her gaze.
“Yes!” Mikasa practically begged for Eren to enter her, both of her hands reached around her legs to spread her lower lips wide for Eren’s cock.
The two both moaned as the tip of Eren’s length touched Mikasa’s heat. That initial moan became long and loud as Eren buried himself into Mikasa’s pussy in one powerful thrust. The two wasted no time as Eren set a strong and intense pace that had Mikasa’s tits bouncing wildly while she cried out in bliss at becoming one with Eren again.
“Eren! Eren! Eren!” Mikasa cried out, her breath coming in heavy pants as every thrust nearly stole her breath away.
“Mikasa…” Eren leaned forward even more to kiss her, making Mikasa nearly delirious with joy as she eagerly returned the kiss and deepened it further.
The bed, even weighed down as it was by everyone on it, began to shake and rock, the headboard tapping against the wall as Eren fucked Mikasa as if his only desire in the world was to impregnate her right then and there. Not that Mikasa wasn’t giving it her all to make that a reality. Even as she was fucked into the mattress, she wrapped her arms around Eren’s shoulders and held him as close as she could, barely separating from his lips long enough for the two of them to breathe as their lovemaking only grew more intense and passionate.
“Mmm, I want that so bad…” Sasha breathed out, making Annie tremble at the hot breath on her sensitive pussy.
Mikasa felt herself tipping over the edge, her pussy fluttering and squeezing Eren’s pistoning cock to try and bring him over the edge with her. “E-Eren!” She cried out in ecstasy as she hit her peak and lights danced in her vision.
“Fuck…Mikasa!” Eren couldn’t restrain himself. Mikasa’s pussy was doing everything possible to coax his load from him and he crashed over the edge shortly after her. Every single thrust of his hips filled Mikasa’s eager pussy with more and more of his thick seed. He used his body weight to pin Mikasa down as she nearly thrashed in pleasure beneath him. Eren grabbed her hands and entwined their fingers, pinning her hands to the bed as he kissed her and continued to make quick, short thrusts to fill her with even more of his cum.
“Haaahhh~” Mikasa sighed out languidly once her lips separated from Weren’s an unknown amount of time later. Time wasn’t something that Mikasa could (or even wanted to) focus on right now. The only thing that mattered was being here, beneath Eren, both of them connected in the most intimate way possible and her womb filled with Eren’s seed.
“Love you, Mikasa.” Eren whispered lovingly into Mikasa’s ear as they stayed connected for a little while longer.
Mikasa felt her heart bursting with love and joy at Eren’s sweet words. “Love you too…” She cooed out softly to Eren.
When Eren pulled himself from Mikasa’s well-fucked pussy, he nearly chuckled when Mikasa moaned ‘No~’ and placed her hand over her stuffed sex, as if trying to keep every drop of Eren’s seed inside of her.
“Mmph!” Hange took Eren’s cock into her mouth for a cleanup blowjob, making Eren nearly hiss as his still sensitive length was stimulated.
“Fuck! Hange!” Eren nearly lost his footing at how enthusiastic Hange was in her task.
“Gagkh! Gagh! Gakh!” Hange took Eren deep, letting him enter her throat as he nearly fucked her face onto his cock.
Sasha and Annie watched in near shock at how eagerly Hange was sucking Eren’s cock. Both of them were amazed with the ease that Hange was deepthroating Eren, given how gifted he was below the belt.
Eren got into the intense blowjob as he took hold of Hange’s long hair and made it into a ponytail with his right fist. His left hand nearly grabbed the back of Hange’s head as he began to thrust in time with her bobbing, burying his length down her throat over and over again as Hange made the naughtiest sounds that any of them had ever heard.
“Gagh! Gakh! Gagkh!” Hange throated Eren over and over again, moaning low in her throat to further stimulate her lover with the vibrations. The face-fucking wasn’t part of Hange’s initial plans for today, but she was FAR too turned on to give a damn right now! Eren plundering her throat was getting her off way more than she ever thought possible.
“Take it all!” Eren nearly roared a while later as he buried his cock down Hange’s throat and unleashed his load.
“MMPH!!!” Hange nearly choked as her throat was filled with Eren thick, hot seed. The first blast hit her stomach and she instinctively swallowed again, coaxing out the second shot. Hange moaned, muffled as it was by the cock buried in her throat, and swallowed again and again, relishing every thick shot of seed that she was rewarded with each time.
Eren swore he became lightheaded for a moment as Hange continued to suck on him. Eventually he pulled himself from her throat and her eager mouth, his cock slick with her saliva, and the last two shots coated Hange’s tongue and painted her face. “Damn… Fuck…” He breathed out in heavy gasps as he tried to steady his heart.
“Aaah~” Hange played with her thick treat with her tongue, mouth wide open for Eren to see, before she closed her mouth and swallowed it down with a noisy gulp.
Neither of them expected Annie to lean over the edge of the bed to lick Hange’s cheek clean. Hange only grinned and let out a soft coo of pleasure as Annie gently took hold of her chin and turned her face so that she could lick off more of Eren’s seed.
“Eren~” Sasha called out to him. She was on all fours, teasingly swaying her ass to tempt Eren. “It’s my turn~” She reached back and spread her ass cheeks wide, showing of both of her holes. “Whichever one you want…”
Eren didn’t remember moving, but he was grabbing Sasha’s hips a second later and burying his rehardened cock into her drooling pussy not even a second later.
“AAAHHH!!!” Sasha cried out, not giving a damn if anyone heard her. As Eren leaned over her, his chest pressing against her back, both of his hands moving from her hips up her sides and taking hold of her swaying tits, she moaned long and low. “You beast~” Sasha looked over her shoulder with half-lidded eyes and eagerly accepted the kiss that Eren gave her as his hips pulled back slowly, creating blissful friction along her inner walls, before he slammed the entire length back into her all at once, pressing against her deepest spot. “YES!!!” Her tongue lolled out of her mouth as Eren began fucking her powerfully.
Historia was cuddling with Ymir as they both watched Eren practically mount Sasha and give her exactly what she wanted. “I wanna go next~” Historia said as she gently bit her lip.
“You will.” Ymir assured her with a grin, kissing Historia softly. “I can’t wait to see your sexy face again~” She teased, making Historia blush.
“Ymir…” Historia pouted, only to receive more kisses as Ymir’s hands wandered all over her body, touching and teasing everywhere they went.
The smacking of Eren’s hips meeting Sasha’s wonderful ass was the loudest thing in the room as the two moaned and panted together. For all that Sasha liked to tease Ymir about her enjoyment of ‘rutting’…she was an avid enjoyed of doggystyle and mating like beasts herself. Every thrust nearly made her see stars in her vision, the heat between them made her sweat as she did everything she could to throw her hips back and meet Eren’s thrusts into her core. It was passionate, primal, intense, and…most importantly…filled with their love for each other.
“Er-Eren…so good…harder! Faster!” Sasha gasped out as her arms nearly gave out from beneath her.
Eren didn’t need to be told twice as he slammed his hips forward, bucking powerfully like a beast in rut, and started hammering away at Sasha’ spasming sex. “All mine.” Eren breathed out hotly as he claimed Sasha’s depths for himself.
Sasha had a small orgasm just from the dominant tone and the increased fervor of their fucking. “Yesh… Yesh, all yours…” She slurred out as Eren’s powerful thrusts were paired with his fingers toying with her sensitive nipples.
“Sasha… Tight…” Eren couldn’t believe that Sasha’s pussy could get tighter, but as it spasmed around him, he was proven wrong. He lightly bit her neck, before sucking on her skin and leaving a hickey.
That proved to be the final straw to break Sasha’s restraint.
“YEEESSS!!!” She cried out loudly as she crashed over the edge. Her entire body seized up from the powerful climax, lights danced in her vision, she felt her mouth fall open and knew she was making a filthy, naughty expression. But her higher thoughts abandoned her entirely as she felt Eren’s hips slam into her ass once more before a wonderful heat flooded her belly. “Aaahhh…ooohh…mmmm…” Sasha nearly passed out as Eren once more claimed her womb with his seed.
“Fuck…” Eren panted as he gently eased them down onto the mattress. His heart was thundering in his chest, the sound loud in his ears, but the sheer pleasure that was fogging up his mind was too good to resist. He gently rolled them over, spooning Sasha without pulling himself free of her pussy. “Hah…hah…damn…”
He just needed a minute to catch his breath.
“Love you…” Sasha mumbled out, her eyes closed and her body lightly trembling in the aftershocks of her powerful orgasm.
“Love you too.” Eren kissed her shoulder and then her neck, right where he’d left the hickey.
-Armin-
‘Definitely shouldn’t bother Eren and the girls right now.’ Armin thought to himself as he looked up the stairs where he knew Hange’s room to be. ‘Maybe I’ll read one of the old books that was left in the castle. I put a couple next to my bunk.’ He headed for the basement stairs and walked down them, only to stop just as his hand touched the door.
“Franz~ You’re so big! I’m gonna break…” Hannah’s loud moans could be heard clearly through the wooden door.
“Hannah! You’re…fuck!” Franz’s muffled shout was almost as loud.
Armin stood and stared at the closed door for a moment, the sounds inside not stopping. “Nope.” He turned and walked right back up the stairs. He was just going to get a strong drink and play cards with the other new soldiers.
-Commander’s Meeting ~ Wall Rose-
At the Garrison headquarters for the south of Wall Rose a meeting was taking place between Zackly, Nile, Pixis, and Erwin. The subject of the meeting was officially recorded as ‘Expedition Results’, which it was about…to be fair. However, the results were already known and now the four men were going over the new information about the outside world that had been recovered from the Yeager Family basement in Shiganshina.
“A hundred years…” Zackly breathed out heavily, now seeing just how far behind they were from the rest of the world.
Nile could barely look away from the new information that Erwin had brought back. “War engines… Airships… Iron ships… So many weapons…” If Paradis tried to fight a conventional battle against these…it would be a massacre on par with what had happened when the government had sent a quarter of the Walls’ people to their deaths after the breach of Wall Maria.
“Is there any possible way that we can catch up?” Pixis asked, notably NOT drinking from his flask as he looked over all the information presented. “The world has moved on while we’ve been stuck behind the Walls, ignorant of reality.”
Erwin could understand their sentiments, he’d been overwhelmed to learn all of this as well. “I believe, once we can make Eren King, that we can spread this knowledge to the people of the Walls and start to implement some of it here.”
“What do you think we should focus on first?” Zackly questioned as he looked through some of the papers. There were a lot of innovations that they could use on Paradis Island.
“I believe the railroads and trains are a good place to start. The ability to move large amounts of various materials, as well as people, swiftly, will be a great boon to reclaiming the Lost Lands once we finish eliminating the rest of the Pure Titans. Beyond that, spreading out to all of the shores of Paradis Island will require a great deal of materials and people.” Erwin said as he held up copies of the papers filled with notes and sketches of trains, railroads, railroad stations, and diagrams showing how they all worked.
Pixis agreed with Erwin, nodding his head towards the younger Commander. “I agree. A network of railroads will be vital to the future of Paradis Island. I believe that we’ll need to fortify our shoreline as well. If we use the Shifters power, surely we could have that done before we’re attacked, right?”
Nile looked thoughtfully at the railroad notes and then back at the various pages filled with the military advancements made over the last one-hundred years. “We’d need a lot more Shifters to have a chance. Not just soldiers either…we’d need artisans, craftsmen, architects, many skilled tradesmen from all walks of life. That’s the only way to get the expertise required to build things like this.”
“We can’t just start making Lesser Shifters freely.” Zackly reminded Nile with a grimace. “Until we depose the current regime, they’ll use the Interior Police to maintain their power by any means necessary.”
Erwin looked at Zackly closely. “Speaking of the current regime. Was Historia’s intel usable?”
Zackly and Nile both perked up just a bit and smiled a little.
“Incredibly useful.” Nile confirmed with a short nod. “We know of the Reiss Family and where their lands on as it’s a matter of public record, just like for any of the nobles and their land holdings.”
“Looking into it, shortly after Wall Maria fell, the entire family was supposedly killed by vagabonds or bandits while praying at a cathedral on their lands.” Zackly said, but it was clear he didn’t believe the official story. “It seems a bit too coincidental for it to have happened at exactly that time. The sole survivor, and the one to tell the story, was Rod Reiss.”
Pixis hummed thoughtfully. “Right after Wall Maria fell, killed on their own lands where no one could see or hear anything, and that would’ve been about the time…or perhaps slightly before…we believe that Eren Yeager came into possession of the Prime Attack Titan and the Prime Founding Titan.”
All four men shared a look of suspicion.
“We’ll need to discreetly look into this a bit more, but it’s clear that Rod Reiss is the true King of the Walls that the Assembly and the Interior Police answer to.” Zackly said plainly. “We must thank young Historia for her information when this is all over. We would’ve been stumbling along in the dark trying to figure things out if not for her.”
-Marley Port ~ Paradis Island-
A mid-sized ship was docked at the port that the natives of the island didn’t even know existed.
Only a small group of people got off the ship and made their way up the long staircases to the top of the solid wall that separated this small harbor from the rest of the island.
The group was made up of soldiers, all wearing the white uniform of Marley.
However, two of them stood out from the Marleyans.
The first was a man with a tall, broad, well-toned body with gray eyes, shaggy platinum blond hair, and a matching mustache that descended into his beard. He wore a button up shirt with an armband around his upper bicep, loose pants, combat boots, and circular glasses. His eyes gazed out over the plain that lay beyond the concrete wall with a calculating expression.
The young woman that stood beside him was short with long, disheveled shoulder-length black hair, a defined nose, and relaxed dark brown eyes. She wore a white blouse, a long trench coat, and a skirt which went down to her ankles, as well as black lace-up boots. She also wore the same armband as the man on her left arm.
“Do you think they’re still alive, Zeke?” The woman asked the man quietly.
“I’m not sure, Pieck.” Zeke replied to the woman. “We’ll need to make our way across the Titan-infested lands and then slip into the Walls to find out where the Warriors are, or what happened to them.”
It had been years without any form of communication from the four Warriors sent to Paradis Island to reclaim the Founding Titan. Marley couldn’t wait any longer in hopes of news, so they’d sent out this small force to Paradis to gather intel and report back.
The way Marley’s enemies were moving recently made most of the higher ups certain that a war would break out soon. They needed their Warriors back, and if the small force could get accurate intel on the Wall Devils (by any means necessary), that would be even better.
“We’ll move out after sunset when the Titans are immobilized. Until then, prepare everything that we’ll need!” The leader of the Marleyan soldiers ordered the group, shooting a look at Pieck since the woman would be their transportation through the vast wilderness of Paradis Island.
-Government Assembly Hall ~ Wall Sina-
“Rod Reiss has found very little information regarding more than Nine Titans.” Deltoff, a noble of the Assembly that supposedly represented the merchants throughout the Walls, informed the other three.
A man dressed in a military uniform, though not directly part of the military himself, known as Gerald, spoke next. “If there’s no information in the Reiss Family’s possession, then where did these other Titans come from?” he shifted in his seat, almost as if he was uncomfortable. “I can only keep the Branches of the Military from reporting so much when it comes to the safety and security of the Walls.” The news that the breach in Shiganshina had been successfully sealed had spread too fast for anyone to stop it.
Aurille, a rather tubby man that was the representative of the nobility on the Assembly (though all four of the Assembly members were nobles themselves), grimaced in annoyance. “If we don’t know then why not just send them out on a suicide mission? As long as they’re gotten rid of then we won’t have to worry about them anymore.”
Roderich, a noble that was a high-ranking member of the ‘Wall Faith’, though he didn’t actually believe in it and was just using it as a means to exert more control over the masses, sighed. “We can’t do that arbitrarily. Even the Wall Faithful are praising the Survey Corps for ‘repairing the holy Wall Maria’ right now. If something happens to the Titan soldiers suddenly and without explanation, then we’re going to have too many people asking questions.”
“Damn it…” Aurille growled as he gripped the armrest of his plush chair. “If only the Reiss Family hadn’t lost their ability to alter the memories of the masses.” They could’ve simply made everyone within the Walls forget about these ‘Titan soldiers’ and eliminated them easily to maintain the status quo.
“I have the Interior Police on standby right now.” Gerald said to his fellow Assembly members. “If we can find a reason, some excuse that would satisfy the masses, to have these Titan soldiers imprisoned, then we could simply eliminate them quietly.” It was how most of their problems disappeared after all.
Deltoff scoffed at Gerald’s words. “We tried that already, but the military tribunal decided to make use of them…and they succeeded.” That was the biggest cause of their current situation and the hidden barb that it was Gerald’s fault for not directly intervening wasn’t missed.
“We shouldn’t squabble amongst ourselves.” Roderich said, looking between Geral and Deltoff. “If we can’t find a legitimate reason to imprison them, we can always fabricate one.”
“With the people currently singing the praises of the Survey Corps and that commoner Yeager?” Aurille looked at Roderich like the man was a fool. “We’d have riots and uprisings throughout Wall Rose in a matter of hours!”
As the four men continued to toss ideas back and forth, mostly just going in circles, none of them seemed to realize that the status quo of their current system left them ill-equipped to deal with another power that had rapidly risen in both trust and fame within the Walls. Their hesitation and inability to act (without trying to foist responsibility and blame onto each other) was the start of their undoing.
And not a single one of them realized it.
-End Chapter-

Well, well, well, the Survey Corps is enjoying some nice R&R! They deserve it!
Some of them are REALLY enjoying the down time! Hehehe~
Poor Armin…can’t even get back to his own bunk to grab a book!
The people within the Walls are praising the Survey Corps and Eren Yeager for sealing the breach in Shiganshina and giving them real hope of retaking Wall Maria!
That doesn’t sit well with those currently in power though. Who, while they love the idea of getting back Wall Maria, don’t want SOMEONE ELSE getting the credit and hearts of the people for it.
Unfortunately, as we’ve seen plenty of times in history, when a small number of nobility try and maintain a status quo during a societal shift…they often want to reap the rewards/benefits without putting in the work. After all, THEY shouldn’t do the work of commoners…but if the peasants start talking and thinking differently than the ruling class wants them to…well, you can’t just kill them all…who would do all the peasant work?
When it comes to responsibility and placing blame, nobility tend to try and foist that off on others…including other nobles.
The system doesn’t work when it actively fights against itself.
Will the ‘revolution/rebellion/Yeagerists’ be able to make their moves before Rod Reiss and the Assembly can get their shit together?
What about those of Marley who have come to check on the soldiers that’ve gone dark?
Keep reading to find out!
Until I get your reviews, later!

I love this I just binged all 18 chapters I can't wait for the next one I wonder when it will come out
Kairomaru
Kek! In time, in time! Glad you liked the chapter!

Poor Armin, he needs a girlfriend. Loved the chapter
Kairomaru
Kek! Sexy times don't always result in pregnancy...even without precautions. But, yes, we men do usually give in to the idea of the women we like wanting sexy times. lol
nigh13shade
dammit Erin you're supposed to wait to be king before you knock up your harem, oh well can't be helped men are all too controllable when their women offer snu-snu. Imagining your girls in very skimpy maid outfits just speeds up the process
MAEGHT Maxime
I have specially the smut
Kairomaru
You're welcome, hope you enjoyed it!
MAEGHT Maxime
Thank for the update buddy
Kairomaru
I followed the manga from start to finish, bro. I know the whole story and I HATED parts of it, especially the ending! That's what inspired me to write this story in the first place. If you're asking what Chapter of the manga we're on here in Chapter 18, that would be around Chapter 31.
Kairomaru
You're welcome! Happy you liked it! Yeah, politics are a bitch. With the knowledge that Grisha put in the three books, a solid infrastructure can be made on Paradis...after that comes stabilizing and expanding the economy! Zeke isn't getting any love from Eren, I know that much! Kek!
Edgaras Kirsenka
Hey so how far ahead are you in the story, since we're on the 18 chapter.
savitar
thanks for the chapter eren is very busy, better not bother him with political nonsense politicians are a pain, whether they are nobles or commoners. They have that air of we are great and we should be praised regardless of the mistakes we make They have been all their lives without facing problems, so now they are in serious trouble and unlike them, their enemies are experienced and want a change For a country to be fruitful it needs solid infrastructure and a solid economy. Will Zeke join then? I seem to remember that he had the plan to destroy his enemies but introducing himself as much as possible until being able to take them by surprise, right?
Kairomaru
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
Ryu
Thanks for the chapter, love this story.
Kairomaru
The girls know how to get Eren riled up good! Kek! Happy that you enjoyed it and I hope it inspires your own creativity and writing!
Garrett , a fancy trouser

I'm sure Armin will find himself a lady of his own. Yeah, those that only know the status quo and nothing else (and also refuse to take responsibility) tend to be rather blind to other people that play the same game as they do.
Redpyramid
Poor armin hope he can find someone as well and the ignorance of the elite so blind in their scheming that fall right into another’s trap
Kairomaru
Happy to hear that!
chris murray
Great chapter looking forward to the next one 😀
Kairomaru
Indeed, they do, little by little!
UltraSpinkie
