After that, I left them alone and simply waited. Several days later, the refugees were tasked with cultivating the wasteland for food, but a shortage was inevitable. Eventually, the central government ordered the refugees to take back Wall Maria—a death sentence for everyone involved.
Two hundred fifty thousand people were wiped out that day. Their sacrifices improved the food shortage situation for the rest of the population.
Even though I want to join the Survey Corps as soon as possible and get out of this world, the Cadet Corps entrance won't begin for another two years. Sigh… I wonder how Thorn and my men are doing now.
TIMESKIP [2 YEARS LATER]
Two years have passed since then. My relationship with the trio has improved, especially with Mikasa, since I spent a lot of time with her. As for Eren, our relationship is like that of a dog and a cat—whenever we're together, we always end up fighting. I can't help it; I really hate this guy.
Right now, it's the entrance ceremony for the 104th Cadet Corps, the same batch as Eren and the others.
Just like in the anime, the bald commander shouted a bunch of insults at the trainees. I didn't really care about that, though—my attention was focused on the four shifters. Aside from Eren, there were Reiner, Bertholdt, Annie, and Ymir—the outsiders trying to blend in among the devils of Paradis Island. Honestly, it's pretty funny.
That bald commander even walked right past Eren. Then again, Eren is incredibly immature anyway.
It was about time for the bald commander—hmm, Shadis, was it his name? Well, anyway—it was Sasha's turn. She introduced herself right after eating a potato. When Shadis started interrogating her, I had to hold myself back from laughing. The others couldn't believe what she was saying either.
Shadis then ordered Sasha to run around the perimeter. That concluded the day, and night soon fell.
When dinner was served, some of the recruits surrounded Eren, asking him about the Titans. It was quite a scene watching him try to act mature. Tsk… I really want to beat that guy up.
"Are you okay?" Mikasa asked from my side.
"Yeah, I'm fine," I replied.
Aside from forming relationships with the trio, I've also already scanned the people I've encountered. All of their talents appear as blank. This means that only talents or skills from my own world can be detected by my scan. In other worlds or planes, I can only see names and ages when I use it on others.
My gaze then drifted to Annie. Hmm… should I bring her as well? I haven't told Mikasa yet. I'll tell her later—if she wants to come. If not, that's fine too.That concludes my first day as a trainee.
When morning came, we were tested to determine each person's aptitude for omni-directional mobility. I can say that I passed without any issues and kept myself completely steady. It was actually quite easy—as long as you minimize unnecessary body movements and adjust yourself to complement the angles of the cables.
