As we chatted, the Tower of Babel came into view.

To avoid being seen, Skadi draped herself and Kal'tsit in shadow.

This shadow not only blocks other people's view, but also makes it impossible for surveillance cameras to see.

However, when the two of them landed on the balcony and entered the area where Theresa was,

They saw red warning lights flashing, a sign of danger, and the corridor was filled with members of the Tower of Babel.

This made them both realize that Theresa must be in danger.

"Your Highness."

Skadi, still in stealth mode, grabbed Kal'tsit and rushed over, pushing open Theresa's door.

Seeing two corpses on the ground, and her holy angel Losia on guard, Theresa sat in a daze in her chair.

The door closed, and Kal'tsit and Skadi emerged from the shadows, looking at the two of them with worried expressions.

"You're back?"

Theresa's eyes were fixed on Skadi, then on Kal'tsit, and when she saw their hands clasped together, she revealed a...

smile.

This smile made Kal'tsit realize something, and she struggled to free Skadi's hand.

"Are you alright? Are there still enemies?"

To attack at this crucial moment, did they really anticipate my and Kal'tsit's absence?

"It's alright, just these two. They didn't know Losia was here, so they were killed by Losia when they tried to make a move."

"I originally wanted to ask the child to show mercy, spare their lives, and ask them some questions."

As Theresa spoke, she looked at Loshia.

It wasn't so much blaming, but rather a sense of helplessness.

"I'm sorry, my mission is to protect you, so I had no choice but to kill them while they still had the strength to resist."

Losia stood there, expressionless. Skadi knew, however, that the girl felt some remorse, having gone too far.

"It's alright, it's good that Princess Theresa is safe."

Skadi couldn't blame her for this, so she could only offer some words of comfort.

Kal'tsit had already closed the door while they were chatting, since Skadi wasn't wearing her doctor's gown, and it wouldn't be good if someone saw her.

All right.

"What exactly happened?" Although she already guessed what it was about, it was still better to find out.

"The two of them sneaked open the door and, when no one was paying attention, entered Princess Theresa's room."

"However, I obeyed Lady Skadi's orders and stayed here to protect Princess Theresa. I discovered them when they came in."

"I originally wanted to see what they were up to, but I saw the two of them trying to kill His Highness, so I killed them."

Losia spoke calmly, and she didn't think she had done anything wrong.

"I see... I understand." She nodded slightly, just as she had expected.

"The warnings here have been turned off; they have inside help."

Kal'tsit returned at that moment and pointed to a device by the door.

That's used to sense who's coming in and out. If someone enters during a specific time period without permission, it will issue a warning immediately.

In particular, a warning will be issued when the door is opened abnormally.

But it made no sound, which means someone must have tampered with it during the day.

Has anyone been here during the day?

I walked to the computer desk, turned on the computer, and searched for some information.

"The central database does not have this information, and half an hour of data has been lost."

"The time was between 1:30 and 2:00 pm, and the surveillance footage in front of Theresa's room was lost during that period."

"interesting....."

Kal'tsit narrowed her eyes slightly. These people dared to attack Theresa at this time; they must have reached a dead end.

"Okay, don't think about it so much, just get some rest."

"It's already nine o'clock. Your Highness going to bed so early means you must have had a lot to do during the day."

"We can talk about it tomorrow. I'll stay here and watch over Your Highness tonight."

Skadi checked the time; they returned at nine o'clock.

Theresa, however, had gone to sleep before that, which was not in line with her usual routine.

Either you didn't rest well last night, or you were too tired during the day.

Either way, Theresa needs to get some rest.

"Hmm." Although she was thinking of not letting Skadi and Theresa be alone together.

But the situation now is not normal; it's when there's an enemy.

Kal'tsit was quite clear about this; she wanted to find out who was causing trouble.

Having Skadi stay here is undoubtedly the safest option.

"Loshia, you protect Kal'tsit. Don't let anyone who tries to get close to her."

"Don't allow it, not even to people Kal'tsit knows."

"Until we identify potential spies, everyone outside our group is an enemy."

Kal'tsit allowed herself to stay, then looked at Loshia and gave her an order.

"Hmm." Losia didn't care about resting. She was made of flesh and blood, but of "light".

Unlike ordinary life forms, they do not need to rest. As long as they pay attention to replenishing light energy, they can continue for a long time without rest.

With a "thump," the door closed, and Kal'tsit and Loshia left Theresa's room.

A commotion arose outside; apparently, everyone was in a bit of a panic after suddenly discovering Kal'tsit's return.

"I know some things about your trip to Longmen, but I don't know anything after that."

"Are you in danger?"

Theresa walked over to Skadi and sat down next to her.

She gently held Skadi in her hands and looked at her tenderly.

"Is it dangerous?"

No, not that.

Skadi thought for a moment and realized that she herself was not in danger; it was only Lungmen that was in danger.

"But that's not the information I received."

Theresa stared at Skadi, seemingly displeased that she had "hidden" herself.

"There's really no danger. Look at me, I'm as lively as ever!"

Skadi looked down and thought about it again, but still didn't feel that she was in any danger.

After all, she didn't feel any pressure from beginning to end; she just wasted a little time making choices.

"...Then I'll trust you for now."

This guy, just to avoid worrying me, pretended there was no danger when it was clearly there—that's such a far-fetched argument.

Theresa pursed her lips; she had no solution to this problem either.

All I can say is that Skadi told her that, and she believed it.

"Oh, really, Your Highness, don't think I'm in any danger. I'm perfectly safe."

Skadi assured her confidently that she didn't see any danger at all.

"By the way, Skadi, has your relationship with Kal'tsit improved?"

Skadi had just taken Kal'tsit's hand, and Kal'tsit had pulled her hand away after Skadi saw this, which still bothered Theresa somewhat.

"I guess it's alright, because we've come to understand each other."

Skadi used a perfectly normal adjective to say this, but her eyes darted away.

Her appearance made Theresa seem to misunderstand something.

PS: It's finally back to normal. Sigh... I hope there won't be any more problems.

PS2: I'd really appreciate some recommendation votes and monthly passes, thank you everyone.

Chapter 52: ●I'll accept Skadi's first time then~

"I'm so happy to see that your relationship with Kal'tsit has really improved."

Theresa lowered her hand from Skadi's, gently bent down, and rested her head on Skadi's lap.

"Hmm? Your Highness, are you tired?"

Seeing her like this, Skadi reached out and gently stroked her hair, then lowered her head and asked softly.

While asking the question, he used his holy priest abilities to cast a spell.

"Thank you, Skadi. With you here, I don't have to worry about anything."
