Skadi, returning to infinity

Besides, this is indeed beneficial to safety, allowing her to better protect the two people.

Why not do something that satisfies your own desires while also protecting the two of them?

The more she thought about it, the more determined she became to fight for this benefit. To increase her chances of success, Skadi began to "lobby" the two of them.

“I know you’ll say that you can be protected here, and there’s no need to use a new one.”

“If this hadn’t happened, I think it would have been quite appropriate.”

"But this incident also exposed a great deal of potential danger here."

"You could even say that, apart from the three of us, the Tower of Babel is basically unreliable now."

"However, even if they really do have a mole, our daily contact with them is unavoidable."

"Let them come and go as they please in the rooms where everyone is resting, or in the places where we work."

"It's not uncommon for them to take advantage of the situation and put Theresa or Kal'tsit in danger again."

"I can install all kinds of defensive facilities and protect your rest and work areas with magic arrays."

"You can only prevent it for a while, not forever. What if they attack during your rest time?"

"I can't guarantee I can come over every minute."

"There's no guarantee that Lofia can perfectly protect both of you."

"For your safety's sake, the best course of action is to leave here and go to a new place, where I will create a suitable and safe area for you."

"I can help you draw magic circles and install protective measures throughout the entire house."

"That way, when I'm resting, I'll be safe, and you two will be safe too."

“When you’re working, you’ll have the items I’ve given you, so you can be sure of your safety.”

"Moreover, when you two live together at home, you can look after each other and have a companion, which is much better than when you are alone."

"Kal'tsit, didn't you want me to be alone with Theresa?"

"Wouldn't that allow you to do as you wish?"

She went on and on about the pros and cons, and finally Skadi brought up what Kal'tsit had said earlier.

Skadi understood that Kal'tsit said this to avoid bothering Theresa, not because it was something she couldn't say.

So she brought it up directly, and even pointed out that it was Kal'tsit who said it.

Theresa had heard Kal'tsit say that before, but the misunderstanding had been cleared up since then, right?

If Naskadi brings this up now, it must have been during a similar conversation that took place between the two of them after they left Babel for Lungmen.

With that in mind, Theresa immediately understood what Kal'tsit meant.

She looked at Kal'tsit, who had turned her gaze away, with a mixture of amusement, curiosity, and a half-smile.

"Can't this guy even think about why I said those things?"

Biting her lip, Kal'tsit was a little annoyed. This guy was too infuriating—wait, so what was my reasoning for saying that?

She suddenly felt a little confused about herself.

"Yes, Skadi's arrangement makes sense. I'll get to work on it right away."

Regardless of Kal'tsit's ulterior motives, Skadi's reason for proposing this arrangement is perfectly normal.

Neither Kal'tsit nor Theresa could point out what was wrong with this arrangement.

After all, these were carefully crafted words by Skadi, an effort made to "pass the censorship".

She knew very well that putting some thought into saying these things was far better than simply saying, "I want a big, detached house with a huge swimming pool and bathtub," which seemed completely...

There are far more reasons why it can't be approved.

Skadi's straightforwardness has indeed caused a lot of misunderstandings, but she's overthinking this matter.

Given her current standing with Theresa and Kal'tsit, she could openly state her thoughts and requests, and they would likely grant her request.

Skadi just hasn't figured out her place yet, nor has she realized how important she is to the two of them.

She's still happily imagining that she'll soon have a big house, a large swimming pool, and a separate, enormous bathtub.

Living in such a place would be such a dreamlike experience.

"While your advice is sound and indeed very useful, I feel like that's not your real purpose."

Theresa gave permission, and Kal'tsit turned her gaze back to Skadi.

It's unclear whether it's because she just said something that Theresa shouldn't know, but she's feeling a bit annoyed.

Kal'tsit always felt that her sudden proposal was not as simple as she made it out to be.

But she only had a slight suspicion and didn't investigate further.

Kal'tsit wholeheartedly agreed with Skadi's arrangement.

The Tower of Babel is indeed facing serious internal problems; no one knows how many enemies are lurking within.

If the assassination attempt on Theresa fails this time, it might happen again, and it might even happen to me.

They can't have Skadi protecting them all the time; that would be a waste of Skadi's time and talent.

In this situation, Skadi proposed a highly feasible solution, and Skadi had no reason to refuse it.

Besides, she also wanted her own space, at least not as "cramped" as her current room.

If the protection is strong, then she can keep many of her materials at home without worrying about them being stolen.

The current situation, where they live together in close proximity, does indeed present many inconveniences.

After all, we were all in the same organization before, striving for the same ideals, so we didn't have high requirements for where we lived.

But with Skadi's arrival, it seems that all of this needs to change.

After all, Theresa has now encountered a situation where the other party has directly arranged for an assassination attempt through an insider.

To prevent similar incidents from happening again, it is absolutely necessary to re-plan some of the existing arrangements.

Having a separate, safe house so that Theresa can be properly protected seems entirely understandable.

As for the construction of the house, there is absolutely no need to worry about that.

The site of the Tower of Babel is not small. In addition to the land under construction and the land that has been completed, there is a lot of vacant land, which they are making good use of.

If this reason were given, the other members of the Tower of Babel wouldn't care too much.

The only thing to worry about is whether this cohabitation will spark any gossip or rumors that will once again dominate the Tower of Babel.

At the time they made their arrangements, in a desolate mountain 130 kilometers away from the Tower of Babel.

A figure silently appeared among them, holding a sharp dagger. He walked up to one of the people and knelt down on one knee, seemingly...

They were saying something.

Skadi seemed to sense something, raised her head, looked in that direction, and gave an amused smile.

Her tracking range wasn't just 100 kilometers, it was a full 1,000 kilometers.

However, the information from 100 kilometers away was extremely well-hidden, and only she knew it.

That guy had been holding back for so long, and he thought he couldn't possibly be discovered, so he stood up to give his report.

However, she didn't alert anyone. She wanted to play the long game, and the two she had caught so far weren't enough.

She needs to figure out why this Qasimir organization is involved in this matter.

And why didn't they kill Theresa instead of doing something so cruel and provocative?

Most importantly, she needed to figure out what the purpose of that arrangement, which resembled a cult ritual, was.

As for other things, like cooperating with Theresis, she didn't care at all.

Therese was merely a tool she used to cover her tracks; she had no need to place her hopes on him.

What she cares about is something deeper.

Or rather, a deeper "darkness".

While she was thinking, Kal'tsit suddenly tugged at her arm and asked softly.

What exactly are you thinking?

She asked this question quite suddenly, and Skadi, upon hearing it, blurted out a sentence, prompting Kal'tsit and Tracy, who was returning after arranging things, to...

Ya Xia's cheeks flushed.

"I want to protect you all for the rest of my life..."

Chapter 57: I will protect you until the end of my life.

"Are you going to say this to every single girl from now on?"

Theresa quickly regained her composure and walked over.

She picked up the tea Skadi had just brewed and asked her a pointed question.

"Huh? How should I answer that...?"

Skadi tilted her head and then thought for a moment.

"You are all my friends, the people who fight alongside me."

"To make this land a better place, and to give you a better life."

"I want to prevent those tragedies from happening, so protecting you is my responsibility."
