System: Build My Own Territory

Chapter 866: Chapter 270: Profession System and Reassignment

"Everyone, war is imminent!"

"If we want this territory to survive this war, or even move forward..."

"We must give it our all!"

Hearing Lynn’s words, Erelo Wesley and the others were solemn.

In unison, they said, "Yes, my lord."

Lynn spoke, "You may all withdraw."

Upon receiving Lynn’s directive, Rose Elero and the others refrained from any further words.

They bowed in acknowledgment and retreated towards the back.

As the sound of footsteps faded away, the reception hall fell into silence.

Looking at the empty reception hall,

Lynn still frowned in thought.

But soon.

Lynn pushed the distracting thoughts out of his mind.

Even if the Karedi Empire descends into a war for imperial authority.

Even if the entire Empire is engulfed in flames of war.

Even if outside the territory the common people are suffering.

With the defensive structures currently built on his territory and the number of soldiers he has.

As long as there aren’t tens of thousands of regular soldiers with siege weaponry coming to attack his walls.

He can fully utilize the walls and Weng City to hold fast!

While all the lord nobility seeks to gain more benefits and higher status from the war for imperial authority.

He ensures his territory has more time to develop.

The farmland he’s sown needs enough time to reach maturity and harvest.

His craft workshops also need plenty of time to produce sets of armor and weapons.

His pastures and breeding farms are the same...

Compared to external expansion, seizing labor, collecting food supplies, and occupying vast lands.

What he needs more is time!

His territory is still in the development stage.

It is far from having the strength to contend with the great lords outside the territory!

Getting up from the lord’s seat, Lynn stepped forward towards his private quarters.

Not long ago, Kuisi had already informed him that the hot water for bathing was ready.

Janet, donned in a thin robe, was already standing by the bathtub waiting.

Upon seeing Lynn entering the private quarters, Janet’s heart involuntarily sped up.

Even though it wasn’t her first time serving Lynn with bathing and massage,

each time she saw Lynn and the images in her mind emerged unbidden.

Janet would become inexplicably nervous.

Is it because of the aura of pressure emanating from Lynn as the Lord?

While Janet speculated.

Lynn, who was walking, stopped in front of her.

In her puzzled gaze, Lynn raised his arm, waiting.

Janet naturally understood Lynn’s intention.

Lynn wanted her to undress him!

A faint blush instantly appeared on Janet’s cheeks.

She didn’t speak but dutifully walked to Lynn and began to unfasten his belt.

Janet didn’t notice at all.

Because of her bending posture, the snowy smoothness in front of her was fully exposed to Lynn’s view.

The thin silk robe on Lynn was slowly removed by Janet.

Seeing Lynn’s vigorous, muscular body before her, Janet’s breathing slightly quickened.

She reminded Lynn, "My lord, you can start bathing now."

Lynn acknowledged and stepped forward, climbed the steps, and entered the bathtub.

Watching Lynn gradually lie down, Janet felt a slight sense of relief.

Just as she was about to soak the linen cloth for Lynn’s face,

Lynn’s voice reached Janet’s ears.

"No need for a massage today, just join me for the bath."

Janet’s eyes widened instantly.

No massage...

Bathtogether...

Even if Lynn didn’t spell it out,

with the previous experiences.

Even without saying, Janet knew what would happen next.

But Janet found.

She no longer resisted inwardly!

In fact, there was more anticipation...

Janet responded softly, "Yes, my lord."

She stepped to the side of the bathtub.

Janet’s hands moved, starting to untie her linen robe.

A few seconds later.

The linen robe naturally slipped off her shoulders and piled on the floor.

Seeing Lynn’s unrestrained gaze sweeping over her body.

The nervous tension in Janet’s heart intensified.

She could even clearly hear the ’thumping’ of her heartbeat.

Despite this.

Janet still stepped forward and entered the bathtub.

She slowly squatted down, immersing herself in the hot water, approaching Lynn beside her.

Upon touching Lynn’s strong arm, Janet’s body trembled slightly.

Ignoring the nervousness in her heart, Janet wrapped Lynn’s arm in her embrace.

Allowing the buoyant softness in front of her to twist and deform.

Before Janet could fully enjoy the comfort of the hot water,

a strong hand fell on her abdomen, quickly climbing upward.

In just a moment.

The strong hand grasped the snow-white in front of her.

Janet’s eyebrows furrowed instantly.

Her rosy mouth slightly parted, involuntarily exhaling a hot breath.

Her gaze towards Lynn was full of wavering.

...

Three mornings later.

Lynn awoke early.

Seeing Janet nestled in his arm, tears still at the corners of her eyes, his brows lifted slightly.

This time.

Lynn didn’t wake Janet up.

He rose from the bed and dressed himself in a clean robe.
