Chapter 146: The Relationship Grew Closer
Hug… they hugged!
The moment I’ve always dreamed of…
Mom’s body is so soft, even though there’s a layer of clothing between us, it feels incredibly comforting.
There’s also a faint fragrance, so pleasant to the nose.
Army Lady buried her head in the neck of the white-haired girl, inhaling deeply with a hint of greed…
"Jun, Army Lady?"
Wow… how did we suddenly end up in a hug!
I can feel… something soft…
Indeed, it’s larger than mine, oh no… my heart is racing…
This sensation is entirely different from holding Red Pupil; it’s so soothing… But is this appropriate? Should I push her away? Yet, I don’t want to…
The girl’s hands were restless, unsure where to place them.
Perhaps noticing that Lin Yu didn’t resist, Army Lady, who had been anxious that her mother might be upset by her closeness, suddenly felt at ease, even—
The golden-haired girl tightened her embrace around the white-haired girl’s arm, bringing them even closer.
What comes next…
I want to…
I want more…
Is there anything else we can do?
She clumsily moved her hands up and down the back of the white-haired girl, her somewhat rough actions finally causing the white-haired girl to snap out of it and push her away.
"That’s enough."
"Mom? I’m sorry…"
I messed up…
Because I was too greedy.
Army Lady bit her lower lip, filled with regret.
"You don’t need to apologize to me."
Hmm, I just instinctively pushed my daughter away because I was startled.
What a pity, that soft sensation… I feel a bit regretful…
After uttering those words in a cold tone, the white-haired girl retrieved the remaining outfit from another dimension and tossed it to Army Lady.
"Try this on."
"Okay, okay."
Army Lady quickly caught the clothes and began to put them on, albeit clumsily.
She fumbled a bit while wrapping the chest band, taking quite a while to secure it properly.
"Let me help you."
Lin Yu couldn’t bear to watch any longer. Her cheeks flushed slightly as she approached the blonde girl, took hold of the ends of the band, gently brushed aside the girl’s golden straight hair, and then secured the band for her.
"Thank you, Mom."
"Hmm."
Next, Army Lady donned her shirt and cloth pants. Once dressed, she exuded an even stronger aura of a golden-haired knight.
Now that she had taken on a human form, it was time for her to try wielding human weapons.
It should be quite an experience.
As for Red Pupil, her petite frame and small hands made it challenging to handle weapons like the long swords of the human race. Moreover, she herself preferred not to use weapons, opting instead to fight with her fists when in human form.
If they needed to venture into a human town to gather information, it would be wise to use human weapons in case conflicts arose and fighting became unavoidable.
"Follow me."
After beckoning Army Lady, Lin Yu opened the door and stepped out of the bedroom.
Army Lady followed closely behind.
"Ah, is that Sister Army Lady?"
"So beautiful… and she seems so dashing."
"…but why is she blonde?"
A group of Military Ants chattered and whispered among themselves as they trailed behind the two.
They finally reached the material warehouse on the underground floor.
"Choose a weapon to try."
"Okay, Mom."
Army Lady understood Lin Yu’s intention; her eyes sparkled as she gazed at the pile of weapons, much like a child excited by a heap of toys.
She quickly strode over.
She first picked up the nearest weapon, a hefty iron hammer.
After swinging it a couple of times, the hammer sliced through the air, producing a thunderous "boom." Just as she was about to bring it down, Lin Yu was startled.
"Stop! Don’t damage the floor."
"Oh…"
Army Lady appeared slightly disappointed, but a smile soon reappeared on her face.
"Mom, this weapon seems really good."
"Do you want this one?"
It feels a bit different from what I had imagined…
"Yes!"
"Why not try something else?"
"Um…"
After hearing Lin Yu’s words, she seemed somewhat intrigued and nodded her head.
With a resounding "bang," she set down the large hammer and picked up another weapon.
It was an iron spear.
Though lighter than the large hammer, it still carried considerable weight, prompting the blonde girl to raise her eyebrows slightly.
She gripped the spear, thrusting and parrying, and after a brief period of familiarization, she was already wielding it with impressive skill.
"Mom, I really like this weapon!"
"…Shall we try something else?"
"Um… okay."
So the spear was set aside once more, and she picked up the bow and arrows.
"Do you want to try the bow and arrows?"
You need to aim carefully with the bow and arrows.
"Um, is that alright?"
"Alright then…"
Lin Yu pondered for a moment, then selected a piece of animal hide from a pile of monster materials nearby and pinned it to the warehouse wall with a dagger.
She then instructed Army Lady to step back, creating a distance of about a hundred meters.
"Let’s see if you can hit the animal hide."
"Hmm."
Army Lady nodded, drew back the bow, and placed the iron arrow on it.
The moment she took up the bow and arrow, her demeanor shifted, becoming focused and sharp.
In the next instant, the arrow was released!
Whoosh—
With a thud, the arrow embedded itself three meters away from the animal hide.
It had missed.
Yet, Army Lady showed no sign of disappointment; instead, she nocked a second arrow.
She shot again!
This time, though she still didn’t hit the hide, she missed by less than a meter.
She tried a few more times, and eventually, the arrow struck the hide.
After hitting the hide, she shot several more times, with the arrow finally landing right in the center.
"Mom, I did it!"
The blonde girl looked at Lin Yu with evident joy, as if anticipating praise.
"Hmm, very good."
I want to try the bow and arrows too…
Lin Yu couldn’t resist and stepped closer to Army Lady.
"Let me give it a try."
She took the bow and arrow from the young girl’s hands, then drew the bow, aimed at the distant animal hide, and… released!
Hit!
Swish—
The arrow landed five meters to the side of the animal hide.
A miss… a mistake.
Let’s try again!
She drew the bow and shot once more.
This time, she missed by three or four meters.
Well, at least there’s some improvement.
So she tried again.
This time, the arrow went way off, landing more than three meters away from the animal hide, not even hitting the wall…
How annoying! I don’t want to play anymore!
"Mom, it should be done like this…"
Army Lady couldn’t help but lean in, guiding the silver-haired girl on how to hold the bow and stand properly.
Although she was also just a beginner, she seemed to have completely grasped the technique of archery.
Is it because of the "Ability to Fight" and "Combat Master" skills? Is that why she learns so quickly?
Feeling Army Lady’s close presence as she helped her, Lin Yu’s cheeks turned slightly red, and she began to daydream.
Then, following Army Lady’s instructions, she aimed and shot the arrow.
Swish—
This time, although she still did not hit the animal hide, she only missed by a little over half a meter.
"Ah… so close…"
Army Lady felt a bit regretful, and then placed her hands over Lin Yu’s small hands that were holding the bow.
"Mom, let’s try again!"
"Mm-hmm."
So they tried again a few more times.
Each time she missed just a little, never hitting the animal hide.
But because Army Lady was so happy teaching beside her, Lin Yu also enjoyed shooting a lot.
Finally, with a swoosh sound,
The iron arrow cut through the air and stuck straight into the animal skin!
"Ah!" "Ah."
Army Lady cheered, and even the girl with white hair couldn’t help but softly exclaim.
"I hit it, Mom! But… I didn’t hit the center."
"No, it’s already very good."
The girl’s originally cold expression changed slightly; she faintly smiled at the corners of her lips and looked at Army Lady with a hint of laughter in her eyes.
"Mom…"
Army Lady was taken aback and smiled back.
"What weapon should we try next?"
"How about a long sword?"
The bond between the two ants seemed to have grown closer.
