Time passed very quickly, and a heavy snowfall fell silently. This morning, when Takashi opened the bedroom door, all he saw were the snowflakes falling from the sky and the largely frozen ground.
It was now December 848, and soon to be 849, and he has spent more than half the time in peace.
Today being a rare day of rest at the end of each month, Takashi got up early and carried a bucket of well-prepared feed to feed the horse he called Babas.
Although there were riding training sessions, they were not as frequent as before.
Catching a snowflake in his hands and exhaling a white breath, Takashi walked to the stable unhurriedly, the lines of footprints on the ground showed that someone had already gone to feed the horses.
Feeding the horses, chopping firewood, traveling to another world, the interesting thing is that he has done all that, but he still can't be sure to face the evil of this world and be able to survive.
When he arrived at the stable, he found his horse. After seeing Takashi's arrival, Babas snorted and turned his head away from his food.
Touching the horse's head, Takashi knew that Babas was a bit angry and there was nothing he could do, he had not fed him well recently and there was no fresh fodder at this time due to the cold weather.
After touching Babas' mane for a while, he found that he didn't want to eat, Takashi was a bit helpless, his horse was a bit stubborn.
Sasha next door was also feeding her horse, after seeing Takashi's situation, she couldn't help but laugh, "Your horse is very temperamental."
Takashi turned to look at Sasha not far to the right, "I can't help it, this time the fresh grass is over, it's already winter after all."
"Yes, it's already winter." Sasha paused and muttered, "I don't know if my father can hunt enough prey this time, no, possibly we won't do that anymore."
Sasha reacted somewhat disappointed, the members of her clan were willing to give up their way of living life as the ancestors did, her father even gave up his way of life to adapt to the situation in the world.
"Since you're so worried about your family, why don't you go back this time and take a look around? You don't seem to have been home since we got here." Takashi reminded her, unlike him, who had no place to return to, Sasha still had a home to return to.
Sasha was silent for a while, her expression somewhat nervous, "No.... No, my father said it was necessary, I... I haven't learned... to make friends and be someone different."
Takashi smiled, he thought about the days he hunted with Sasha around the base. She was happy every time he hunted in the forest, but unfortunately the arrows had been damaged and lately there was no time."
At this, he couldn't help but ask directly, "Aren't Connie and I your friends? Don't you get along with the witch Ymir and Christa? Mikasa, Mina and the others are your friends too."
Sasha was very moved, "Thank you, I only regret it, I shouldn't have fought with my father..."
"Tsk! That's really touching, Takashi, when did you become such a gentleman? Look how excited Sasha is." A sarcastic exclamation was heard and there was no telling when Ymir and Christa came with horse feed. The only woman who could say that without embarrassment was the witch Ymir.
Takashi couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Looks like you and Christa developed an annoying ability to appear behind people without making a sound."
Because Ymir and Christa were also on the hunting team during that time, Sasha, Ymir and Christa were already quite familiar with them.
Of course, even acquaintances don't expect to hear anything good from Ymir's mouth. Takashi, who knew a lot more about Ymir, didn't fare any better than the others.
How could Ymir honestly shut up, "Be honest, you want to be Sasha's boyfriend."
Sasha suddenly blushed: "It's not like that, I... we don't..."
Takashi was speechless: "Ymir, do you think I'm talking to a woman just to make her my girlfriend?"
Ymir snorted coldly, "Then why does my Christa talk about you every day and take you as a role model? Isn't it because you said something strange to her?"
Christa was about to answer but was rebuked by Ymir's hand quickly.
"How? What happened?" Takashi was a little confused, that shouldn't have happened, he was sure he never said anything special to Christa let alone flirting with her.
Not even with someone in his previous life did he flirt. After laughing for a while, he continued to be a noble bachelor.
Sasha realized she was being mistaken for someone a little more than Takashi's friend and stepped back with an embarrassed but polite smile.
Takashi felt he should alleviate her aggravation and shouted, "It's all nonsense! I really didn't say anything out of line to Christa, you neurotic witch, it's slander from you and your stinking mouth."
Christa is gentle, cute and helpful. There are many more male soldiers who want to be with her than Mikasa and Annie. After all, the latter two are at least hard to get along with because of their coldness.
And Christa seems to be easy to fool...someone easy to get along with being, but no one succeeds in getting anything, because they can't get past the witch Ymir.
It is not known how many children who tried to conquer Christa were molded by Ymir, by the way, many doubted if it was really worth it.
All those who tried to get close to Christa said, "Is it so hard to get close to Christa?"
And now that witch Ymir is bothering him. If he really did something like this, it's okay and he accepts it. The problem is that Takashi didn't do anything but training, so he couldn't help but complain.
Ymir wanted to keep talking to Christa, but finally broke free from her arm and said, "Ymir, it's not what you think, I'm just... just..." When he was trying to explain, he suddenly didn't know how to do it.
Christa remembered the day Takashi looked at her reading a book of a story about a knight.
She asked him curiously, "Takashi, do you like this book?"
Takashi, who had seen that book before, shook his head and said, "I don't like the ending, I think everything would be better..."
Takashi compared the story about one he had seen in his previous world, slowly narrated it to Christa and then told her about how the knight married three princesses.
"How can he marry three women?" Christa blushed, her big blue eyes were full of surprise.
"And why not? He's strong, brave and helped the kingdom out of a major crisis." Takashi asked disapprovingly.
Christa's expression was a little surprised,
Looking at Takashi's serious face, she barely calmed down, "But, this isn't romantic at all!"
Takashi chuckled and said, "A certain man said, where one person fits there will be room for another later on."
Christa couldn't help but think that there was an apparent possibility, she couldn't imagine what life would be like with three women loving the same man.
Only then Takashi realized that the gentle and kind girl in front of him was really uncomfortable, "These complicated things, it can happen if everyone agrees, but it's very unlikely."
Christa lowered her head and muttered, "Can it happen in real life?"
Turning back to the stable, Takashi more or less understood what was going on.
"So that was why..." Takashi pointed at Christa.
Hearing that, Christa didn't know how to explain the situation and after a while she calmed down.
Ymir reached out and fixed Christa's bangs, "Okay, don't pay attention to those boring guys in the future, especially Takashi, it's not a good thing."
"Huh?" Takashi said, "Ymir, it's okay for this time. But if you're so unreasonable in the future, I'll have to teach you a lesson on the battlefield."
Ymir snorted coldly, "A guy without any grace and respect for women."
Christa smiled apologetically at Takashi. However, before she could say anything to alleviate this embarrassing situation, Ymir grabbed Christa's hand and pulled her away from the stable.
"Sasha, take care of your boyfriend and keep him polite." Ymir left a few last words before leaving the place.
"I can't do that..." Sasha was at a loss as to what to do.
If Takashi were someone else, Ymir wouldn't talk so much, she'd just curse him before tuning him out.
But on the one hand, she is familiar with Takashi and they have a much closer relationship than with anyone else besides Christa, she likes to tease him and all those little things stay in the past the next day.
At that time, Babas was no longer mad at Takashi for his food and Takashi continued to feed the other horses a little depressed.
"Takashi, I..." Sasha hesitated for a moment.
"Don't feel uncomfortable about Ymir's words." Takashi smiled slightly and patted Sasha.
However, Sasha was reddening and said, "Me, goodbye."
Sasha ran out of the stable without another word, leaving a much more confused Takashi than he already was.
Today was really an unlucky day and he couldn't be angry even after being scolded by Ymir.
"Goodbye Sasha..." Takashi raised his hand to say goodbye. Thought of her enthusiastic friend who suddenly acted strangely. Only now did he realize that this world was full of weirdos.
In other words, there don't seem to be many normal girls here, do there?
Takashi's idea is correct, there aren't many normal people who actually play a role in the female characters like other stories.
Mina is relatively normal, but she seems to get along with everyone in general. The witch Ymir is a titan, Sasha loves food, Annie is cold, well no big deal and Mikasa just has Eren in her eyes.
Not to mention the abnormal girls.
