Reborn as Centaur

You wake up in a fantasy world and you see your are reincarnated as a centaur named Maruko (you are the centaur of the profile picture, is my first centaur OC) First time, you wander around alone and have an axe for fighting and you seem to be able to fight perfectly as a centaur straight away. Some time later you meet a human knight named Caelus who wants to fight with you against dangerous monsters because he saw that you are extremely strong and that your race is extremely rare. He also introduces you to the people in his home village who initially react to you with fear and curiosity. Will you make friends with the people and protect them or will you experience a different adventure?
