I'm really not a Sanctuary Warlock.

"you……"

Cat Bai Bai finally couldn't hold back any longer and was about to protest when Lynn beat her to it.

"Don't move."

Lynn's chin rested gently on the top of her fluffy head.

"See, I didn't touch your tail."

Cat Whitey: "..."

What's the difference between this and petting a tail, meow?

She was furious, but found that she couldn't be angry at all.

Lynn's embrace was warm, carrying a reassuring aura that dispelled the chill of the desolate night.

She struggled for a moment, but found that the other person was holding her very tightly and she couldn't break free at all, so she simply gave up.

Anyway... anyway, it's not like I'll lose a piece of flesh.

She comforted herself with this thought.

However, she was still too naive.

Lynn's hand, which was wrapped around her waist, began to wander.

His fingers, as if playing the piano, slowly moved upwards along the curve of her waist.

Cat Bai Bai's heart jumped into her throat.

She could clearly feel that wicked hand reaching over the hem of her vest and caressing her smooth, soft back.

Even through a thin lace lining, the burning heat from her palms still made her feel uncomfortable all over.

Then, the hand continued upwards.

Finally, gently, cover it.

"!"

Cat's mind went completely blank for a moment.

She felt all the blood in her body rush to the spot that had been touched.

Those adorable cat ears were pressed straight back and stuck tightly to their heads.

Lynn could clearly feel that

"See, I told you I wouldn't touch its tail."

Lynn's lips brushed against her ear, and he chuckled softly in a voice only the two of them could hear.

The warm breath brushed against the cat's sensitive ears, making her shiver involuntarily.

The cat was so embarrassed it was about to cry.

She wanted to push him away and yell at him, calling him a faithless scoundrel.

However, my body felt limp and I couldn't muster any strength.

She could only let that wicked hand run rampant over her body.

Lynn didn't do anything more outrageous; she simply covered him gently, savoring the unique beauty that belonged to a young girl.

The kitten in my arms was initially as stiff as a log.

But gradually, perhaps it was because I was really too tired today, or perhaps it was because Lynn's embrace was too warm.

Her tense body began to slowly relax.

Lynn looked down and found that the little one in her arms had closed his eyes and fallen into a deep sleep.

Lynn looked at her peaceful and lovely sleeping face and couldn't help but chuckle.

He gently adjusted his position to make the cat more comfortable, then pulled the blanket over them and wrapped them up even tighter.

Feeling the warm, soft touch of the jade in his arms, Lynn closed his eyes.

It seems that the gradual approach is quite effective.

Silent all night.

Chapter Seventy-Four: A Sleepless Night

The first rays of dawn gently fell upon Lynn's eyelids.

He slowly opened his eyes, his consciousness still somewhat hazy.

In his arms was a warm, soft, petite body.

Her short, flaxen hair brushed against her chin, tickling her, and her adorable cat ears twitched rhythmically with her steady breathing.

Lynn looked down at the kitten girl sleeping soundly in his arms, completely unsuspecting, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.

The feel of the ball last night... was really good.

Seemingly sensing his gaze, the cat's long, white eyelashes trembled, and it let out a soft, sweet whimper before slowly opening its beautiful eyes.

Eyes facing each other.

Cat Bai Bai suddenly realized that she was being held tightly in the arms of a scoundrel in such an embarrassing position.

Moreover, although the large hand that committed the evil deeds last night had been removed from where it shouldn't have been, it was still firmly wrapped around her waist.

"ah!"

With a scream, Whitey the cat broke free from Lynn's arms and scurried to another corner of the tent.

She wrapped herself up tightly in a blanket, leaving only her eyes, filled with shame and anger, staring intently at Lynn.

Lynn slowly sat up, stretched, and acted as if nothing had happened last night.

Good morning, did you sleep well?

"you you you you……"

The cat pointed at him, but couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.

That scoundrel, that big bad guy!

He promised not to touch her tail, but... but he actually did...

"What?" Lynn blinked innocently. "I behaved myself all night and didn't touch your tail."

The cat, Bai Bai, didn't know what to say.

He didn't touch the tail, but the problem is, he slept hugging himself all night.

Moreover, she still clearly remembers the feeling of being... being caught last night.

Seeing Lynn's shameless act of getting the better deal and then acting innocent, Cat White was so angry that she wanted to pounce on him and bite him hard.

In the end, she just gave a heavy snort and turned her head away.

"I'm ignoring you, meow."

She quickly lifted the curtain and darted out like a startled rabbit.

Lynn watched her flee in disarray, his smile widening.

interesting.

This is getting more and more interesting.

……

When Lynn finished getting ready and stepped out of the tent, Cat Whitey had already relit the campfire and was intently preparing breakfast with her head down.

She seemed to be deliberately avoiding Lynn's gaze, simply handing him a bowl of steaming hot meat soup and saying something in a muffled voice.

"Time to eat, meow."

No one mentioned what happened last night again, as if it were just an insignificant dream.

After breakfast, the two quickly packed up their campsite and set off on their journey again.

The unicorn strode forward steadily along the rugged mountain path.

Cat Whitey was still sitting in front of Lynn, but this time, her body was tense, as if she was trying her best to distance herself from the bad guy behind her.

However, the unicorn's back was only so big, and no matter how hard she tried, she could still clearly feel the body temperature and heartbeat coming from her back.

This made her feel uncomfortable all over, and even her long, thin tail swished around restlessly.

"Will we reach the judgment checkpoint today?"

Lynn's voice suddenly came from above her head, breaking the silence.

"Can't get there, meow."

"The mountain roads here are too difficult to travel. We won't be able to get there until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest."

Cat Bai paused for a moment, then dutifully began to explain.

"The Judgment Pass is one of the most important defensive lines in the western part of the kingdom, jointly guarded by the Kingdom's Knights and the Church."

"Only after passing through that checkpoint will you truly enter the heart of the kingdom. The threat of monsters and beasts will be much smaller then, and you'll be safe, meow."

Lynn nodded.

In other words, they were still in the dangerous wilderness before reaching the Judgment Gate.

As if to confirm Cat White's statement, just as they rounded a bend in the mountain pass, several wild boars covered in rock-like skin rushed out from the dense forest beside them.

[Race: Rock-Skinned Boar]

[Level: 13]

Cat Baibai instinctively tensed up and gripped the unicorn's mane tightly.

However, Lynn behind her showed not a trace of emotion.

"Hold on tight."

He simply said something and then casually raised his right hand.

A fireball the size of a human head instantly condensed in his palm, carrying a scorching shockwave, and hurtled towards the lead rock-skinned wild boar.

boom!

The fireball struck its target precisely, exploding violently on the wild boar's hard, rocky skin.

The seemingly incredibly strong level 13 monster didn't even have time to let out a scream before it was sent flying by the violent flames and impact, crashing heavily into the mountainside and turning into a charred mess.

The remaining wild boars were terrified at the sight, letting out a series of horrified howls before turning tail and disappearing into the woods in the blink of an eye.

From the appearance of the monster to the end of the battle, the entire process took no more than ten seconds.

Cat Bai stared blankly at the wild boar carcass still emitting black smoke, then turned to look at Lynn, who had a calm and collected expression. A complex emotion flashed in her beautiful eyes.

Although this villain usually seems carefree and likes to play pranks.

But in crucial moments, they always give people a sense of security.

This conflicting feeling left Cat Whitey's mind in turmoil.

……

Along the way, they encountered a few more instances of harassment from low-level monsters.

Without exception, all of them were easily dealt with by Lynn using the simplest and most direct Wind Blade and Fireball spells.

These monsters, which would be quite troublesome for ordinary adventurers, were as fragile as paper in his eyes.

Reaching level 30 not only brought him a huge boost in attributes, but also an extraordinary affinity for the wind and fire elements.

Night fell again.

The two chose to set up camp again at the foot of a sheltered mountain wall.

Having learned from yesterday's experience, before entering the tent, Mao Baibai laid out her little blanket in advance, and then quickly crawled in like a little hamster, wrapping herself up in the blanket.

She turned her back to where Lynn was going to lie down, closed her eyes, and pretended that she was already asleep.
