Bronya in yoga pants, absolutely gorgeous!
Bronya stood alone on the observation deck of the Kliperburg dome.
A biting wind, carrying tiny ice crystals, rushed towards her, but she seemed completely oblivious.
Her consciousness remained immersed in a dazed and confused state.
The scene from not long ago kept flashing through my mind.
Looking back on those bold, almost insane actions, even she finds them unbelievable.
How could she... do such a thing in the most solemn center of power in Belobog?
The wind and snow howled, sweeping past Bronya's heavy fur cloak.
The cold touch finally cooled her burning cheeks and chaotic thoughts slightly.
She instinctively wrapped her outer robe tighter, the thick fabric enveloping her completely and protecting her from the harsh cold.
However, no one would have guessed that beneath this cloak, the young commander was wearing a yoga outfit that was already badly tattered.
Some parts even showed obvious tear marks, silently telling the story of what had just happened.
Bronya was already tall and well-proportioned, with flexible yet powerful limbs.
Not long ago, in order to please Lin Hai, she showed herself off without reservation.
In the solemn office in Kliperburg, she performed several challenging yoga poses, perfectly blending the graceful lines of her body with an inner strength.
Even when Bronya recalls that scene, she finds it breathtakingly beautiful.
It possesses an unparalleled beauty that combines elegance, strength, and a touch of forbidden allure!
Especially when her gaze inadvertently swept over the worn-out yoga pants she was wearing, Bronya's cheeks burned uncontrollably once again.
She took a few deep breaths of the cold air, forcing herself to pull herself away from those embarrassing memories.
"Call..."
"Calm down!"
"Don't think about this for now, don't think about it for now!"
Bronya turned and walked down from the dome to find Lin Hai.
She found him in a quiet side room.
Lin Hai was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, a faint layer of energy light swirling around him.
He was drawing upon the power of the feedback from the Path of Elation, Bronya could sense that his aura had become even more profound and refined than before.
Even in his quiet meditation, Bronya could sense a primal, life-giving desire for more Elation.
An idea sprouted in Lin Hai's mind:
If this continues, perhaps one day, the power boost brought by Path of Elation may even surpass the power of Harmony.
Is this possible?
He pondered to himself, and the answer was yes.
Simply because the sources and forms of Elation he can experience and create are so incredibly diverse!
Bronya quietly walked up behind him, held her breath, and chose to wait quietly, not wanting to disturb him.
However, Lin Hai had already sensed her arrival.
He slowly dissipated his power, the light around him faded, and then he turned around, wrapping his arm around Bronya's slender waist.
His gaze was intense, filled with undisguised admiration, as he whispered in her ear:
"You were so beautiful just now."
Bronya nestled in his arms, her cheeks slightly flushed, but then turned to the important matter. "Did you bring any new supplies for Belobog this time?"
"Of course." Lin Hai nodded, his fingertips gently brushing through the strands of hair that fell over her shoulder. "We brought a lot, enough to support the next phase of the expansion plan."
Lin Hai took out a Rubik's Cube from his pocket, which had been modified by the Herta and whose surface shimmered with a ghostly light.
With a slight movement of his fingertips, the Rubik's Cube opened.
The next moment, a mountain of supplies poured out from that seemingly small extradimensional space.
It filled the spacious side room of Kliperburg.
Boxes of precision instruments, well-packaged food and medicine, and many industrial materials that Bronya couldn't name.
The sheer quantity and variety of aid far exceed any previous aid effort.
Bronya's eyes were filled with shock. She opened her mouth slightly, looked at the mountain of supplies before her, and sighed softly:
"This time... it's much more than ever before."
"This is all thanks to the Herta." Lin Hai put away the Rubik's Cube. "She used some unconventional methods to register a compliant company entity, bypassing the complicated regulations and reviews."
Bronya exclaimed, "The Great Ms. Herta... she's truly an incredible being."
"That's true," Lin Hai nodded in agreement. "If I were to try to do it all myself, I'm afraid I'd find it impossible to make any progress..."
He paused for a moment, thought for a moment, and then added:
"There is a solution, and that is... I won't eat beef!"
Bronya didn't understand Lin Hai's meaning. "What do you mean I don't eat beef?"
"Act recklessly and let your fists do the talking!"
Lin Hai now possesses the power to speak with his fists.
Using his Super Burst power, the strength he can possess in a short period of time is beyond imagination.
No one can stop it!
What truly stopped him was his personal discipline.
However, personal restraint was Lin Hai's own choice!
Willing, or unwilling.
That's all!
After the initial shock subsided, Bronya gathered her thoughts and brought up another matter with Lin Hai.
"Sir, recently a proposal has spontaneously arisen among the people of Upper District and Underworld: they hope to have a statue erected in your honor."
"My statue?" Lin Hai was genuinely surprised. He raised an eyebrow slightly. "A statue for an outsider like me? That... isn't quite appropriate?"
Bronya shook her head, her expression serious, and said, "This is not just my personal opinion, but the common wish of many people in both the upper Underworld."
Over the years, the Upper District and Underworld have accumulated deep resentment and sharp conflicts due to issues such as living resources and historical legacies, to the point that they were once at odds with each other.
The arrival of the Lin Hai brought essential supplies for survival, and more importantly, it provided aid to both the upper and lower districts.
His very existence became a link and a cornerstone of trust between the two opposing regions.
People need a tangible symbol to solidify this hard-won hope for a shared future.
Lin Hai fell into deep thought, reflecting on the critical attitude he held towards personality cults in the world he lived in.
Bronya's next sentence revealed the key point:
"Personality cults may have drawbacks, but in this particular time when Belobog desperately needs unity, it's an option to rally people's hearts!"
At that moment, Lin Hai suddenly understood.
He realized that he had been trapped in dogma.
When people are united, they can move mountains.
In Belobog, a place in ruins and deeply fractured internally.
A universally recognized symbol plays a significant role in building consensus and pooling strength.
This is essentially a realistic choice made after weighing the pros and cons, and the benefits of unity it brings far outweigh the potential risks.
"I understand." Lin Hai's gaze hardened. "In that case, let's sculpt the statue."
After this decision was made, a more inclusive idea emerged in his mind.
Creating a personal statue is feasible.
Creating a shared symbol that represents Belobog's rebirth might be more effective!
What should be used as the core image of a totem?
Lin Hai thought of the dragon, which, in the culture he came from, was an auspicious symbol of power, wisdom, and unity.
Using foreign symbols directly is inappropriate; they need to be integrated with Belobog's local characteristics.
"Combining the form and spirit of the dragon with the iconic snow-capped mountain elements of Belobog," Lin Hai conceived, "To create a completely new totem."
"Bronya..." Lin Hai laid out his thoughts.
Bronya immediately showed great interest after hearing this.
"That's a great idea! How exactly should it be designed?"
"I will invite designers to come up with several preliminary designs that combine the essence of both worlds," Lin Hai explained. "Once the draft designs are ready, I'll show them to you first."
Bronya nodded repeatedly after hearing this, a hopeful smile spreading across her face.
Lin Hai hugged Bronya tightly and suddenly changed the subject. "You look so beautiful when you do yoga."
Do you still want me to jump?
"I want to." Lin Hai reached out and pinched Bronya's small mouth. "So beautiful, I can never get enough of pinching her!"
