On an unremarkable afternoon in Aninsbei, though the abolition movement was complete, Lynn organized people to dig trenches and excavate stones on the city walls, preparing for defense as the farming season had passed.
A policy of universal training was also implemented.
It was mainly to train obedience, while having them practice with wooden sticks as spears.
Spearmen were simply gods in the cold weapon era.
Easy to use, quick to train.
At the same time, among the supplies Lynn purchased were forging materials, pig iron and the like, for the Dwarves to forge spearheads.
He himself went off to tinker with his "big baby."
"Lynn! Good for you, slacking off after finishing your work!"
"Leaving me to do all the work, do you know how tired I am too!"
On the outskirts of Aninsbei City, Lilim secretly followed Lynn all the way to his experimental site.
As winter gradually approached, Lilim's maid outfit was replaced with a winter version. The long skirt reached down to her shoes. As Lilim walked on the muddy ground, she could only lift her skirt, and even so, she got covered in mud.
Lynn naturally heard Lilim's scolding, but he had already ignited the gunpowder. He could only immediately run back and lie down. Lilim was, as expected, pulled into the trench pit by Lynn. Lynn didn't have time to change his posture, so he could only use his hand to shield Lilim's head.
"W-w-w..." Lilim repeated several times, but before she could speak, the explosion came.
BOOM!
"Ah!"
With the explosion, Lilim was immediately startled. Everything happened too suddenly. She had only come to find Lynn, and this guy had tackled her without a word, and then the explosion sounded.
After the explosion subsided, Lynn propped himself up with his hands, feeling quite excited. "It only took 5 seconds for the explosion this time. I finally figured out how long the fuse needs to be."
"Lilim, what's wrong?"
Lynn was a bit confused. Why was Lilim's face so red? Judging by her expression, she seemed to be frightened, her ears standing on end.
"The little hamster seems to be easily startled. Is she perhaps stunned by the explosion?"
"Lilim, wake up. What are you doing?"
Lynn noticed nothing out of the ordinary.
Lilim was currently in a state of confusion, whether it was from the shock of the explosion or from being suddenly tackled by Lynn.
Before Lilim could even process it, Lynn's forehead pressed against hers.
"And the weather is getting colder. Are you feeling cold?"
"You're not hot either."
"Lilim, could you have been poisoned!"
"Your face is so red, like a steam engine."
Lilim opened and closed her hands, completely at a loss.
"W-w-w..."
"Bastard!"
Lilim raised her fist, wanting to hit him, but her small fist was caught.
Ever since his "destruction," Lynn had been training like crazy, with his stats maxed out.
Battle Qi Third Order?
That was long gone; he was already at the semi-Fifth Order.
Not to mention that SSS-rank talent.
Although Lilim also had an SSS-rank talent, she only cultivated Magic and was a slacker. It was only after Lynn's "destruction" that she started considering her future. Although she was also cultivating, her progress wasn't very fast.
And so, Lilim's raised fist was pushed down. The little Loli was completely immobilized, held tightly. "Alright, don't be angry. Be rational, Lilim. Explain clearly why you're acting so strangely."
A few tears welled up in Lilim's eyes. "What do you think, you bastard Lynn? Did you do it on purpose? You triggered the 'lucky pervert' incident that never happened before on me, you bastard!"
"At least be gentler! My hands hurt from you grabbing them!"
Her blue brain spun wildly. Lucky pervert?
Pervert?
Wolf?
Lynn froze, lost in thought for three seconds.
In the small trench he had dug, Lilim was tackled by him. In such a small space with no room to move, his position was him sitting on top of Lilim.
Her hands were pinned by him.
Her clothes were a bit disheveled.
Face red?
Face red.
Blushing!
Only then did Lynn snap back to reality, looking down at Lilim beneath him.
Lilim, far too petite, had her hands held above her head. Her large, sapphire-blue eyes were brimming with tears, her cherry-red lips tightly shut.
This is bad, what should I do?
Back then, it was Lilim who taught me how to win over the Heroines. Now, I don't need to win Lilim over, I just need to prevent our relationship from cracking.
Lilim is only useless in front of me. If you take her out of teaching, managing things, or administration, she's incredibly strong in all of them. That is, as long as it doesn't involve areas she doesn't understand. Otherwise, she's prone to spouting absurdities like: "So people can't afford land even with hard work, I thought it was just because they weren't trying hard enough."
Fortunately, once her knowledge is complete, she handles affairs very quickly.
Lynn's mind raced.
If he said it was an accident, no one would believe him.
Those kinds of anime-trope lucky events, like being a "lucky pervert" and then flusteredly claiming it wasn't intentional, only to get hit and have the other person's affection increase—how could something like that possibly exist?
