Skadi, returning to infinity

She felt that Skadi's words were too dangerous.

She is a wife, a married woman, and a mother of two daughters.

This person actually said she liked him; that's unbelievable.

"Hmm? You don't need to accept it, and you can't refuse it. This is my decision."

"As for whether you will feel unhappy about this."

"Then you can vent it out later."

"What I can tell you is that I planted the seed of blood ties into your bodies six months ago."

"Over the past six months, as I've spent more and more time with you, the seeds within you have also taken root and sprouted."

"Six months is enough for the seed grass to grow and entwine around your bodies and souls."

"Moreover, this change is silent and imperceptible; you cannot perceive it at all."

“Even before you became my blood relatives, you could resent me, hate me, and even want to kill me.”

“But once you become my blood relatives, all your emotions will just be emotions.”

"Because you can't do anything to hurt me."

"So it's normal that you still have emotions and can still be afraid of me."

"But when the power of blood ties truly begins to entwine your body, even if you hate me, you will have to follow me."

"This is the power of blood ties."

Skadi looked up at Aoi Tohsaka and spoke in a calm tone the words that made her soul tremble.

"You...you...liar...bastard."

Aoi Tohsaka always felt that Skadi was kind to them because she genuinely wanted to befriend them.

After all, she has a lot of personal charm, and being with her is really enjoyable.

Who wouldn't want to get to know someone like that better, who wouldn't want to become their friend?

But now she realizes that the other party did this with a purpose: to turn them into her "slaves."

This immediately shattered Skadi's image in her mind.

She transformed from a charming and beautiful young girl into a horned demon.

I actually trusted this person, and even let my daughter, Rin Tohsaka, fall into her hands...

No, it's not just Rin Tohsaka.

Her own youngest daughter, Tohsaka Sakura, was also given to her as a "slave".

This demon had no good intentions from the start; she never wanted to befriend them, but rather to turn them into... slaves.

scribe.

Do you hate me?

Skadi looked into her eyes and saw a complex expression that was a mixture of disappointment, disgust, fear, and resentment.

Despite being hated by others, Skadi didn't care at all.

She seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and whispered.

"See, I didn't lie to you. Your feelings are still there, and all your subjective emotions are still there."

You can resent me, you can hate me.

"You are an individual or independent."

"So you don't need to worry about becoming my slave just because you've become my blood relative."

"Apart from the fact that you cannot harm me, any feelings you have for me are permitted by blood."

"Of course, because we are blood relatives, you will definitely have a good impression of me in the future."

"But I can help you eliminate this influence. Whether you truly resent me or want to get closer to me, it's entirely up to your own perspective and thoughts."

"After all, I'm not a demon; I just want to find a blood relative who is right for me."

Skadi said this while closing her eyes.

Hearing her words, I couldn't tell if she was being sarcastic or if that was her true thought.

ll......I......

With her lips pursed, Aoi Tohsaka's expression showed great struggle.

Finally, as if she had thought of something, she slumped into a chair.

"So, what exactly is your purpose...?"

She didn't understand, she really didn't understand.

This girl in front of me is so incomprehensible.

She seemed shrouded in a mist, making it impossible to see what she was really like.

Even now, she can't believe that this was Skadi's original thought.

"I told you, I will protect you."

Skadi opened her eyes, looked at her, and smiled again.

"I mean what I say."

"Whether it's Sakura or Rin, I will protect them."

"But the two of them are too young to lose their parents."

"But I can't turn my teacher into my blood relative, so I can only ask you, Madam, to do this."

"While I'm out doing other things, you'll be in charge of teaching them."

"I believe that under your guidance, they will surely grow into outstanding magicians."

"As for the future, it doesn't matter whether my wife resents me or has complicated feelings for me."

"Because I believe that the lady has her own thoughts."

Skadi was trying to comfort Aoi Tohsaka.

She didn't finish her sentence, nor did she complete it.

After saying those words, he slowly left the small cubicle, leaving her alone inside for a while.

I brought them here at nine o'clock in the morning, and Skadi left the greenhouse at ten o'clock.

During this time, Rin had heard Sakura recount her experiences over the past year. Compared to her mother, who knew the "truth," Rin's feelings for Skadi not only didn't diminish...

It dropped, but it also improved a lot.

She was the one who enabled her and her sister to reunite and live together.

Is there anyone more lovable than my older sister?

"Rin, you'll be staying here for a while and can't go out."

"It's dangerous outside. The Holy Grail War is no joke."

"Once we leave here, it's hard for me to say I can fully protect you."

"So I'll just live here with my mom and sister and wait for the Holy Grail War to end."

"Rin is the older sister, so you need to act like one and protect Sakura here, understand?"

Skadi bent down and gently stroked Rin Tohsaka's head.

These words were not a warning, but rather to make Rin Tohsaka understand that she was the "older sister".

This will make it easier to use this to control her later.

Identity is a fascinating thing; if used well, it can sometimes achieve twice the result with half the effort.

For example, Aoi Tohsaka's identity as a "mother," and Rin Tohsaka's identities as a "sister" and "daughter."

If she can "play" this aspect well, she can easily break down Aoi Tohsaka's psychological defenses.

As for Rin Tohsaka and Sakura Matou, there's absolutely no need to worry.

Leaving aside the fact that Sakura has reached the point where she can be converted into a blood relative at any time, Rin is almost there too.

If she wanted, she could make them her blood relatives tonight.

The only person who needs to be dealt with is Aoi Tohsaka.

This is why Skadi pulled Aoi Tohsaka aside to talk to her alone.

In this kind of situation, only through personal communication can the other party understand your thoughts.

"I will do my best and fulfill my responsibilities as an older sister."

As these thoughts flashed through Skadi's mind, Rin Tohsaka, who seemed to understand but not quite, nodded and uttered these words.

What she didn't realize was that by saying those words, she had bound herself, become completely trapped, and was unable to escape.

Chapter Thirty-Five: Everything I did was for myself.

Skadi didn't know how long Aoi Tohsaka would struggle with this decision.

She herself didn't care much about this matter.

Because over the past year, she has actually "sacrificed" a great deal for Aoi Tohsaka.

It's normal that she found this direct confrontation hard to accept.

However, because of the "blood relative" seed, it's impossible for her to truly hate herself or anything like that.

Her explanation of "blood relatives" was only half true.

Aoi Tohsaka still has emotions now, but once she truly becomes his blood relative, these emotions will be mostly washed away.
