Hygiene Problems

-Hito-

He was an idiot for thinking that people from this era knew about panties or bras for that matter, and now he was awkwardly teaching her how to wear this.

God, even watching his sister changing her underwear isn't as uncomfortable doing this.

But then again, she's his sister, and Ymir wasn't related by blood, so it's different, it would have been so easy if he wouldn't be bothered by this, but it's not so easy without being embarrassed.

Sometimes, he wished he could kill his emotions or at least common sense so that he wouldn't be embarrassed doing things like this.

And if someone from his reality were to see this, they would label him as a lolicon, after all, Ymir is just a kid.

Well a pre-teen to be exact, but still a kid nothingness, she's like 13-14 maybe 15, hard to tell because she's malnourished.

After he helped her wear the panty and bra, everything looked better compared to her previous appearance.

It proves that with the right clothes, anyone could make themselves attractive.

Though…it doesn't really get rid of her smell though, maybe he could try and create soap and shampoo too.

He started materializing the said items and a few seconds later they pop out of existence, making Ymir surprised once more but more accepting this time.

"I know you just wore your new outfit but, you should probably take a bath first, you smell because of the blood…" Hito muttered the last part.

He gave her the items and she asked. "What are these for?"

"For your skin and hair." He replied.

"For my skin and hair…?" Ymir said, confused.

Hito sighs and says, "Maybe it's better if I could show you myself."

He needed to take a bath himself anyway.

-3rd PoV-

They arrived at the lake near their previous camping location, this is also the reason why he chose to camp near this place because it has water.

Drinkable water, it's important even if he had an infinite amount of food source, it wouldn't matter if he doesn't have water.

Without food you die, without water, you die.

Without these two major things, surviving could only be a dream.

The shelter could come later, but food and water are the most important.

He took off his shirt in front of Ymir, making the girl start squeaking.

Hito shifts his gaze toward Ymir, the girl was trying hard not to look away, she was blushing. "Ymir, this is how you use soap watches."

He started rubbing the soap in his body, starting off with his abs. He was so focused while 'showing' her the right way to use soap, he didn't realize that Ymir was becoming redder than a tomato.

Not to mention she's definitely enjoyed the show. Ymir wasn't usually the type to shy away from things like this, she basically sees her fellow slaves' naked bodies daily, that includes males.

So she wasn't a stranger to abs being shown in front of her, but was different from that, for some reason she enjoyed watching him do things like this, flexing his manly muscles even though he wasn't even doing it purposely.

Ymir was acting like a girl of her age, and she didn't realize that, but she was too occupied to think about it.

All she had in mind was engraving the image that she saw today for the rest of her left as she may not see this again.

"So that's how it's done, you understand Ymir?" His words made her snap out of her daydreaming.

"Um...I y-yeah!" The first lie she told him made her incredibly guilty.

Hito noticed this and just raised his brow, but didn't say anything he didn't want to make it harder for her, the girl suffered enough, even though she's clearly not paying attention.

"Right, so the next is shampoo, this is how you use it.."

After finishing showing her how to use the products himself, it was now her turn to take a bath, while she may not have paid attention mostly to his soap explanation due to her admiring his muscles, especially the abs.

She still knew how to apply them, she muttered. "I just need to rub it all over my body right…?"

Then she started rubbing the soap all-over her pre-teen body, it felt so easy to rub them all after she got wet.

Bubbles started to form, she smelled them and immediately liked the scent, and she decided it was her favorite smell.

After rubbing the soap from all over her body, she was now using shampoo to clean her hair.

She also likes the aromatic smell of the shampoo a lot, things she never had thought she'd have the privilege to use.

After she's done taking a bath, Ymir never felt so clean in her entire life, her body smelled nice, and her hair smelled nice.

For a slave like her to have the luxury like this…was nothing sort of a miracle.

Then her gaze shifted toward Hito and thought. 'Yes, miracle, he's the miracle that came to me.'

The world was cruel, that's what she always thought after her people's enslavement, she'd seen cruel things that a child like her wasn't supposed to see, dirty things that even a grown man would puke from spectating.

But she endured, because of her will to survive, her desire for hope, and most importantly her desire to be human, to be free whatever she wants, to make decisions for herself, and now just blindly following orders like a slave.

Exactly like a slave.

However, fate seems to have a different plan for her, it was when she freed the pig because it made her see herself and her people, they were just like pigs waiting to be slaughtered by the Eldians.

So at that moment, she let her instinct control her, freeing the pigs from their misery.

Because of that, she was hunted and betrayed by her own people, fearing for their own lives.

Selfishness.

She ran and ran, thinking that she'd die or running rather than being caught by the Eldians.

However before she was caught and died at the hands of Eldian hunters, he appeared the hope she's been waiting for, the miracle of her life.

The only beautiful thing that this world has, everything else is evil and filthy compared to him.

For she is with him, freedom was possible not as a dream, but as a reality where she's a human girl named Ymir, not a slave.

She refused to become one again, even if it means taking her own life.

It's better than being a cattle waiting to be slaughtered.

-Hito-

Hito was pretty satisfied with how Ymir turned out, she's now a fine-looking teenager, and she looked a bit more mature with modern clothes on.

She also doesn't have the smell of rotting blood anymore which is good.

"You look good, vastly different compared to you a while ago." He nodded with a satisfied smile.

His compliments made her look away from his direction, however, he didn't notice as he was too occupied checking her outfit.

He honestly didn't think she'd be great in a black sweater, it was just him randomly guessing.

'I think there's something missing…ah, I know!' Hito immediately materialized a hair tie, he approached Ymir and slowly tied her hair.

"There, perfect ponytail." He smiled satisfied with his work, good thing he has experience tying his sister's hair.

"I...I look good?" Ymir asked hesitantly.

"Well, you'll see it for yourself." Hito winked at her.

She was confused about what that meant so she winked back without any idea what it meant.

He couldn't help but chuckle at that, then he materialized a human-size mirror and then said. "Look, you'll see how beautiful you are in this mirror."

Ymir slowly approached the mirror and gasped as she saw herself in it, she couldn't stop her mouth from opening, but she hardly cared because she couldn't believe this person in front of her was herself.

S-she looks beautiful, she can't believe her own eyes.

Behind her was Hito smiling happily at her and saying. "That's you, you're not dreaming you are beautiful Ymir, you don't look like a slave, you are a person, a human being."

Each of her words hit harder than every whip that hit her, it may not seem much but to her, it meant the world.

She just wanted to be human and right now, she is.

And her miracle made that happen.

After feeling like a human again, she smiled at him.

And that smile was one of the most heartwarming smiles that he ever witnessed.

A smile from a girl who wanted to be free.

With that smile alone, worth protecting, he decided to erase Eldian from this very world.

For her freedom.

Yikes, for freedom he is willing to cause genocide, nothing will stop him from freeing her from the Eldians.

If you just read chapter 122 Attack On Titan Manga, you'd understand why I'm going to kill them.

Technically it was just the king I wanted to kill, but the rest of them are just as guilty.

Either way, no matter how you justify it, a murderer is still a murderer no matter how 'noble' his intention was and our boy is aware of it.

But still going to do it, good thing this was his first world because this wouldn't be the first or last time he'd kill someone or anyone.

Personally, a no-kill rule is very stupid, it's the highest stupidity in my eyes.

Joker is the best example of that, if Batman killed him, a lot of lives would be saved.

That's why main characters that are willing to stain their hands with blood, are always the best.
