I Shall Be Happy (Attack On Titan Fan-fic) - Chapter 39

(3rd person’s POV)

“So you were there… when the wall fell?” (Mob 1)

“What about the Colossal Titan? I heard it could step over the wall!” (Mob 2)

“Yeah tell us! I heard the same thing.”

Surrounding Eren and Armin, a group of people was throwing question after question at them, curious about their experience at Shigan Shina.

“Yeah… I was there, the damn day that cursed us all. And to answer your question, no the Colossal Titan was not that big. Its head was just slightly above the ground and it bȧrėly has any skin.”

Eren calmly answers while eating his food.

Then everyone kept asking random questions until someone finally said.

“What about the titans? How were they? I heard that they were terrifying creatures.”

“They… Hehehe. It’s not such a big deal. They were definitely not as scary as they seemed. Once we master the ODM gear, we will slaughter them, just like how they did it to us. Isn’t that’s why we trained Armin.”

Armin, who was acting nonchalantly to make himself look cool, finally take a look at the bragging Eren. He then put up a really stoic face as if he was an old war veteran. This simple action made a few girls almost wet themselves, especially with the defined features coming off from these handsome blonde boys.

“Yeah… Yeah… That’s why we put ourselves through hell. Everyday.”

He replied with a rough voice, unlike his normal boyish tone and once again, making himself look cooler. Then he stared out at the distance while putting his hand on his chin, before continuing his speech.

“Titans may be scary once see how disgusting their actions are. But that’s it. They are quite slow, especially within the residential areas. If we just take a little precaution, those little bastards won’t even touch a single hair of us.”

Meanwhile, Jean and the other boys who weren’t the conversation were pissed by these two dudes.

Armin and Eren… They got the story. They got a tough body. And especially they got a good look.

Why weren’t others as blessed as them?

Even Jean, who was intending to mock Eren for wanting to join the Survey Corps, held back, in fear of angering these strong dudes. This made him even more pissed since he was quite strong for people his age.

“It’s quite rowdy over there… Hey, why don’t we check Thana-kun? It’s quite late after all.”

In a different table, 3 girls were simply minding their own business. That was until Historia brought up a point. She also changed quite a lot ever since she joined the family.

Though she wasn’t privy to the secret shared between Athanatos and her two female friends, she knew they were hiding something. But she didn’t want to buŧŧ in and demand an answer. She would wait until the day it was necessary to ask, or the day that they might tell her.

“Uhm, let’s go,” Mikasa spoke quietly, and Annie also agreeing.

“Let’s get some bread too! The girl Sasha and Thana-kun must have been hungry from the running.”

The two just kept quiet since they knew that even without eating, there’s no way Athanatos can get hungry at all. But they still have to pretend he’s a normal human being.

———————————

At that very moment when the girls were about to take off, 3 guys immediately noticed them.

It was Jean, Reiner, and Bertholdt. Each has their own attention on a different girl, Mikasa, Historia, and Annie respectively.

Meanwhile, Jean, who was smitten by the beauty of the Oriental girl, decided to try his luck.

In his eyes, all that he saw was the most beautiful thing in the world. The way she elegantly walked while not minding anyone’s business was as if she was a literal goddess not caring about mortals’ affairs. She had black glistening eyes surrounded by long curly eyelashes. Her delicate and plump pink lip could make anyone heart thumping thousands of times faster than normal.

And for a moment, Jean swore he could feel a halo radiating beautiful light around her body. Heck, for a moment, he could even hear the sound of a heavenly angel singing.

Her beauty was just that captivating.

Right before Jean could go any further, Eren, who witnessed the scene, immediately went into panic mode. Terror flashed through his eyes and he even could picture himself hanging on Wall Rose.

He must stop Jean before he makes any advances on her, or he, Armin, and Jean might be on the headline tomorrow as corpses.

“STOP RIGHT THERE HORSE FACE!!!”

But Jean didn’t care. He was in his own world, slowly reaching out to the woman of his life.

‘F*CK! He’s not listening.’ And with that, Eren just decided to screw it before smashing his fist onto Jean’s head, effectively knocking him almost unconcious.

“Ouch! Wh..at was that for?”

“I’m sorry but I just saved your life. You’re welcome.”

“You…” Jean was so angry but the pain on his head caused him to faint quickly after.

The whole incident was witnessed by everyone in the dining room, making them speechless.

It was then that Armin, who looked like he was calm, was shaking like hell. The whole table was vibrating, making creaky noises, which drew everyone’s attention to him.

“D-don’t ever… make a move on any of those three girls. Trust me… You don’t want to know.”

Seeing the fear on Armin’s face, who resembled a man that had experienced the worst hell on earth, caused everyone to unconsciously gulps.

(MC’s POV)

Meanwhile, I, who was oblivious to the whole situation, was still trying to make Sasha my teacher.

“Sensei! Please accept me as a student!”

I don’t care how people think of me but I definitely need Sasha’s skills. Her abilities to taunt the enemies and trolled them are top-notch. There’s also her ability to speak with a straight face, which although I won’t admit it, is something I can’t replicate. If I somehow was able to copy her skills, I would undoubtedly be able to disrupt my enemies’ mindset, giving me an edge over them if our skills are equal. It would also give me a greater insight on how to lie to others better, making me the God of Liar.

I mean, is there anyone who can actually speak seriously in front of a big audience while eating a potato? Exactly, no one.

“Huh? sob* sob* My food. T_T”

Her ability to ignore someone is also godly. How can such a being exist? I can’t even do that

We have been running together for 49 ŀȧps right now. It’s already dark and dinner time has already passed, which means we can’t get food even if we want to.

And what’s more, it’s been more than 6 hours of running and she still hasn’t even noticed me. Amazing…

“Hey, Sasha! I will give you food if you teach me the art of trolling.”

It was at that moment… that I knew… I f**ked up but at least it was working.

Her eyes began to glow red a little (Just my imagination), and she glared at me with a predator look. The aura of a beast began to radiate through her entire body, which could give anybody chill if they looked at her, not me though.

“I got meat!” I gotta try harder. If she likes potatoes, then surely she would like meat even more.

At the same moment we finished 50 ŀȧps, she immediately got all 4 limbs.

“Give me, heavy breathing*, give me MEAT!!!!!!”

Then she pounced on me.

“Holy f**k!”

I dodged immediately but of course, I didn’t expect her to just try and push me down like that. It reminded me of that one horny titan-turned-human, Ymir, who also pounced at me the same way.

I almost gave a slap on her face, which would have probably pulverized her into dust.

“If you’re misbehaving, I won’t give you meat!”

I suddenly remembered a scene from my past life. I used to own a huge Cerberus. It was quite disobedient at first but after tempting it with food for a while, it followed my orders. Theoretically, it should work the same for Sasha here, who’s more intelligent but also has a beastly instinct. Surely it would work.

“SIT!”

And before Sasha could pounce at me again, she sat down while still giving me a glare.

GOOD! I should be an animal trainer. I got a talent for this.

“Here’s some jerkies.” Then pretending to take out the jerkies in my pocket, I opened up my Our Space. (A/N The pocket dimension or in another word, an Inventory)

“Ok. Roll over… Good, here’s some more meat.”

The Sasha right now was no longer what she used to be. Hunger struck her too hard and she was just acting everything unconsciously. She growled like a beast every time she was asked to perform a trick but regardless, it was free food so she didn’t even care.

“Now give me five! Good girl. Paw! Good, good. Do a flip! NICE!”

Being so immersed by this whole taming thing, I didn’t even realize that 3 figures were walking toward me. Since I wasn’t using my power right now, I didn’t even notice that something terrible was going to happen.

“Tha-na-kun… What are you doing?~”

The one who just spoke was the angel earlier, no… she should be called a devil. Her eyes were so dead, that one couldn’t even see one little trace of humanity. Shadows were glooming over her eyes, which helped to intensify the scary expression on her face further.

It was then that I have finally snapped out of his fantasy, only to see 3 familiar looking faces.

“Hey what’s up. How’s th-”

But before I finished speaking, I choked on my saliva. My voice couldn’t come out anymore.

I’m f*cked.

(A/N YOU’RE F*CKED)
