19 Training for the Anticipated Attack
Chapter 19: Training for the Anticipated Attack
--------------------------------
"Listen closely, you pigs!"
In front of everyone, The Bald Instructor was at it again, insulting everyone while explaining the next training.
"Training for the anticipated attack of Titans on Trost will take place shortly!"
"The Commander officer of the southern region, Commander Pixis, will also be in attendance."
"Show him how you farmyard pigs... have transformed into soldiers over the last two years!"
"Yes, sir!"
Packing things up and ready to leave. Everyone will be participating in these upcoming Training.
....
At the gate of Trost District. Batch after batch of Trainees entered.
Vincent looked at everyone and saw their longing expression and thought.
'Can't help, everyone is far away from their homes. Most of the Trainees came from Trost... I guess they miss their families?'
Vincent walks along with everyone. He's in the group of Christa and Ymir. And he's the leader of their squad.
Going towards the somewhat place they will stay at, HQ. They drop their belongings in there. With some spare time before the start of the Training, Vincent then said to his squadmates.
"Christa, Ymir. I go and explore the city a little. See you guys, later!"
With farewell, Vincent left decisively, leaving the confused two girls.
Ymir cupped her hand on her chin and made a thinking expression...
'This guy... Even leaving two girls aside, where can he possibly go?'
Ymir thought for a second and made a weird grin and said to Christa.
"Neh, Christa. Are you curious where that guy is going to?"
"Well, I'm curious too, but since he didn't invite us. It's his privacy, I guess?"
"He didn't invite us, but he didn't say were not free to follow him"
"What are you thinking, Ymir"
"Let's go"
Ymir said that and began pulling Christa's arm. Christa couldn't help but be pulled by Ymir.
Ymir's plan is simple, just tail Vincent until they see where he is going.
....
"Ymir, there are a few people here. Is this dangerous?"
"Christa, are we really backing out now? This guy dragged us across the City, until here, aren't you curious?"
"But this is bad!"
"Hehehe, bad or not. We will know that guy's secret"
....
Vincent walked towards a worn out chapel, Ymir and Christa saw this...
"He's going to chapel, Ymir. Let's go now. Vincent didn't really do anything suspicious"
"Chapel? In this place? No way. No people in the chapel will go to this kind of place! Their Ego is too strong, as the faith, they held on the walls."
"So what, let's go back now Ymir"
"Christa, as we are already here. Let's just go and enter."
"Bu-But"
"Don't worry, no Priest will be here"
"... ok"
....
Entering the Chapel, Ymir and Christa saw Vincent playing with the Kids and giving them food.
Because of the Chapel being small, the people inside the chapel knew their arrival.
"Ymir and even Christa!? Why are you guys here?"
Vincent questions.
"Well..."
"We just want to know where are you going"
"So you follow me?"
"Yeah"
"Christa, you..."
Ymir hesitated on her response, but Christa with honesty said their plans...
"I'm not doing anything dangerous, I just knew this place when I got stuck here 3 years ago"
"All of the kids here lost their homes and parents. Luckily someone took them in and established an orphanage in this Chapel"
"Ohhh, you're actually kind of a good person, Vincent. I didn't know that"
Ymir said that and walked towards Christa who was busy playing with children.
"Hmmm, I don't know about that"
With Vincent's hidden side getting revealed. Christa's admiration for him grew. (AN. I don't know... 😏)
Even Ymir got a bit of respect towards Vincent.
Ding~ Ding~
The bell rang signifying that all of the Trainees should get ready, and the Training will begin shortly...
....
Vincent, Christa, and Ymir walk inside the place they stayed at. With their arrival garnering some attention.
Connie walked towards Vincent and made a suggestive face, elbowing his side and said with a knowing smile.
"You're not only aiming at Annie, you're aiming at Christa too, huh. Vincent, I didn't know your such a playboy"
"We're just sightseeing"
"Sightseeing, I see, I see"
Connie left and whistled.
Vincent can't be bothered by Connie's antics and so readied himself up. Putting his gear and checking if it is ok and fine. They check it before they leave, but Vincent is double-checking just to be safe.
....
On top of the roof with Christa and Ymir. Vincent drew out his sword and began to look around for potential targets.
'That dummy, but it's far and some squad is near them. What about that one... Hmmm, plausible. What about that one...'
With a green smoke, rising on top of the wall. The Training began.
Vincent and his squad ran and flew.
Vincent then began to instruct his squad, on where to go.
"Ymir, go towards that dummy, and Christa, go towards the dummy on the left. I will cut the Titan in the middle"
"Roger!" "Ok"
Shingg~
Shingg~
Shingg~
With that three targets have been claimed by them.
"Wow. Vincent, you're good at leading others!"
Christa exclaimed in awe as they easily began to slice Titans and claimed Points.
"With this, it will be easy to be top"
Ymir said that and continued...
"Not bad, Vincent!"
Vincent only nodded in response... as Ymir clicked her tongue and thought...
'Stingy, I just complimented him and only nodded. What a stingy guy'
....
3 hours later...
Landing on the ground with his Squadmates. Vincent then began to knock his gas and thought.
'I guess, 3 hours non-stop of flying takes a lot of gas. I need to keep that in mind.'
"I guess we called it timeout then. Are you guys ok with that?"
"I agree. Seems like Christa is exhausted too"
Ymir looks at Christa who's panting and sweating bullets.
"I-I'm fine"
Christa said that...
"What fine. You look like a beaten dog! Let's go back now, Vincent"
Ymir said that and helped Christa by supporting her.
....
Back at the place they stayed at.
Many people are there too, besides them. Exhausted or run out of gas.
One by one. Trainees after Trainees landed or just got inside the HQ.
This Training really makes them use all the knowledge they got on the Training camp.
Leaning on the wall with his squadmates. Vincent is tired too albeit a little, but he needed some rest like everyone else.
Then, when everyone got back, an Instructor made them lined up and said...
"Not bad, but don't be cocky. As the Dummy Titans do not move like the Real titans. Anyway, you guys perform well, that's all dismissed"
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Even Christa sighed and patted her chest.
She looked at Vincent and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Vincent, without you, I will perform poorly."
Vincent looked at the smiling Christa and thought...
'Cute. She looks like a cute kid'
Vincent then unexpectedly patted Christa's head and said.
"No worries. Even if my instructions are alright, without the skills to back it out. It will all for naught. Be confident with yourself Christa"
Christa froze as she felt the hands of Vincent patting her head, and heard him say that. She looked up at Vincent's face and said,
"No, no. I'm really grateful"
"Alright, then bye-bye. See you later in Dining Hall"
"Ok see you"
Christa looked at Vincent's back view with a grateful expression.
"Well, well, well. What have we got here? A girl that got patted on her head. Christa, I'm not only around for a little and you're already cheating on me"
"I'm not cheating, Ymir"
"Hmmm, how do you feel getting patted on the head?"
"Well... it's not bad"
Christa touches her head and has a small blush on her cheeks as she says that.
....
At the Dining Hall.
Besides Vincent sat Annie, who is clearly in a bad mode.
Vincent looked at Annie and saw her cease eye-brow and asked.
"What happened, Annie?"
"Nothing"
"Well, it clearly said that on your face that something happens"
"I said... Nothing, Ok?"
"...ok"
Vincent looked at Annie and heard her unreasonable answer and thought...
'Is this girl on period or something? Better not angered her'
"Vincent"
Vincent heard that someone called out beside him, and saw Christa and Ymir with food on their hands.
"Can we sit here?"
"Sure, go ahead"
"See you later, Vincent"
Annie got up and left, before saying that.
Vincent looked at Annie's back and decided to ask her later if she had some problem.
"What happened to her, Vincent?"
Christa asked Vincent and sat down across from him.
"Don't know either... Anyway, let's eat first"
"Yeah let's do that"
Ymir looked around her and thought...
'Is this guy really dense? Or is he just faking it? But if he really is dense...'
Ymir looked at Christa and said to Vincent.
"Vincent"
"Yes?"
"Christa is mine"
"... ok"
"What are you saying, Ymir"
Christa heard what Ymir and said and questioned her.
Vincent was baffled at Ymir, and just "agreed". He then looked at Ymir and thought...
'Is she in her period, too? Better just agree with her'
"Do you know the contest that will happen this coming night, Vincent?"
Christa said to Vincent.
"No idea. What contest?"
"Cooking contest"
"Hmmm, what a pointless contest. So what special about this contest?"
"Commander Pixis is the one that decided it and will be the judge. Jean's squad and Sasha's squad will clash"
"Ohhh"
Vincent answered and thought...
'Jean's squad is where Annie is on it... oh, so that's why she's angry at that time. She didn't want to do pointless things, but she got dragged on it. No wonder she's so unreasonable'
"Is Jean Kirstein in here?"
"Yes, sir! I'm here!"
Vincent didn't bother about that and began eating his good, while chatting a little with Christa and Ymir, or mostly Christa, as Ymir only talked a little.
When a commotion happened and Jean got angry and shoved his mom out.
'Hmmm, Jean shoving his mom out and getting embarrassed. He's probably in his rebellion phase.'
Anyway, not that I care.
Vincent got up and said towards the two girls.
"See you this morning"
"Aren't you watching the contest"
"Don't want to watch pointless things. I'm just gonna go and take that time to practice, than watch pointless contest"
"Then... bye"
