[Full] The Villainess Just Wants to Live Quietly! (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 40
Now that I had my own laboratory, I could accelerate the creation of magical engineering weapons.
K01 was a first-series weapon with many aspects needing improvement. Using it to prevent war with the Kalua Empire was clearly impractical in several ways.
Though I’d sent a preliminary contract to Igteon Trading Company and hadn’t yet received a reply, I instead received a document from the Arwen Empire expressing their intent to sponsor my magical engineering research.
—”From now on, the Arwen Empire also intends to support your research, my lady. Expect further details in an official document soon.”
It was exactly as Roel had mentioned previously.
The sponsorship funds sent by the nation were surprisingly generous.
I deliberated over where best to spend this funding, and finally reached a decision.
First, I purchased additional heat-resistant materials so Askan could freely utilize his power inside the underground bunker.
Though bultanium alone might have sufficed, Askan’s flames never extinguished, so this was precautionary against unforeseen circumstances.
With the remaining funds, I bought nothing but magical engineering machinery.
Thanks to this, my laboratory—already equipped with cutting-edge apparatus—was now perfected to a standard unmatched anywhere.
“Wow! Now I can use this to my heart’s content!”
Even Barnen, usually restrained in expressing emotions, appeared ready to dance with joy.
“My lady, this is truly incredible!”
Matella also beamed at me, flashing a thumbs-up.
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!

This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”

The situation is really becoming dangerous. His obsession is a bit too overwhelming!
- It becomes a bit excessive and redundant (I mean the jealousy scenes). I guess some thriller action is coming soon.
For me there is an issue. I think those who experimented on the human-weapons, used script on different objects before. To know word combinations and such. Before switching to humans. That would be more logical. 🤷🏻♀️ I can’t easily believe that Tanasia was the first to think about that. 🤔

At my words, Askan’s previously stiff expression finally softened with a hint of
That young manipulator! Just how imposing he is becoming! Why is she ignoring that?
My hypothesis was this: if humans could artificially imbue ordinary stones with
Why do you think the country that engraved the script on people didn’t engrave it first on the objects? I think they did.
—No, only until you reach adulthood and can protect yourself. And you may show i
And now you are supposed to marry him.
I’ll enjoy the upcoming drama. 🍿

Hmm.. I expected more from the training session. Something linked to emotion control, but not as the afterwards teasing (I don’t complain about straightforward teasing though..)
