Skadi, returning to infinity

"Your Highness can solve it, but you need to make a firm decision; the Doctor needs to speak up."

"We can wait a few more days at most. If the doctor still doesn't wake up, we'll have to deal with the worst-case scenario."

Dr. Kal'tsit walked to the coffee table, and Skadi went over to make her a cup of coffee, placed it in front of her, and sat down.

"I'll try to see if I can wake the doctor up."

"But the doctor has been preparing for this for over a year, so it shouldn't be so easy to resolve."

Skadi tried her best to resemble Titi, and spoke in a cold and indifferent tone.

"That's why we were worried that something might have happened to the doctor, and we were waiting for him to come back."

Kal'tsit shook her head, then picked up her coffee and took a sip.

"Hmm?" Kal'tsit paused for a moment, taken aback by the taste of the coffee...

very familiar.

His eyes were drawn to Skadi, to Skadi's clothes, and to her expression.

But then a fragrance different from coffee wafted into her nostrils, and Kal'tsit immediately understood what was going on.

"Is the PhD student planning not to come back and to start a family with someone else outside?"

Without making a sound, Kal'tsit put down her coffee, stood up, turned around, and headed for the stairs.

"The Doctor wouldn't do such a thing, after all..."

Skadi stood up and followed behind her, and before they knew it, the two were close together.

As Skadi reached the corner between the first and second floors, she was right behind Kal'tsit.

Kal'tsit stopped at that moment, almost causing Skadi to bump into her.

"Is it fun to lie to me?"

Turning around, Kal'tsit pinned Skadi against the wall, her expression complex.

Her tone was also tinged with annoyance and anger, and she was very unhappy that Skadi had "deceived" her.

Skadi blinked helplessly, surprised that she had been discovered so quickly, despite being prepared.

If this were Skadi from the previous Type-Moon universe, she would be begging for mercy by now.

But now she has a better way.

Without answering Kal'tsit's question, Skadi simply pushed Kal'tsit's body away slightly, then turned around and slammed her against the wall.

He opened his red lips and gently kissed Kal'tsit's lips, which were agape in surprise.

A deep kiss.

Chapter 3: A Deep Kiss with Dr. Kal'tsit Under the Gaze of Others

“Ugh…” Kal'tsit opened her eyes wide and tried to resist.

But Skadi wouldn't let her resist at this moment. She pinned Skadi's arms down with both hands and raised her right leg, positioning it between Skadi's legs to prevent her from doing so.

She lifted her leg.

His eyes were fixed on her emerald green eyes, which held a mixture of grievance, surprise, fear, anger, and a subtle, unreadable emotion—perhaps love?

Skadi had previously found it difficult to discern this expression, but now it was very familiar to her.

Skadi stopped when their tongues were intertwined for an unknown amount of time, and Kal'tsit was panting and no longer resisting.

Their lips parted, and their rapid breaths landed on their faces.

Skadi stared at Kal'tsit without saying a word.

Kal'tsit, on the other hand, was panting and didn't say a word.

A few minutes later, Kal'tsit, as if just coming to her senses, pushed Skadi away, her face returning to its usual indifference.

"If you don't give me an explanation, you can expect to be hung on the tower and exposed to the sun for three days and three nights."

Whether she was angry or embarrassed, Kal'tsit's feelings were extremely complicated.

He wanted to strangle Skadi, but he was also savoring what had just happened.

But a voice inside her told her that she couldn't let herself fall into this trap; it wouldn't be fair to Lady Theresa.

But no matter how many voices echoed in her mind, Kal'tsit could no longer face Skadi's clear eyes.

"Because I don't want you, Dr. Kal'tsit, to worry so much."

"So I wanted to test the waters first."

"But it seems that Dr. Kal'tsit discovered it ahead of time."

Skadi grinned—she could only try to appear less aggressive, otherwise Kal'tsit would probably run away.

Lose.

"It's so early in the morning, being young is wonderful."

A familiar voice came from behind; it was Madam Chen Qiuxu.

"Ah...ah?????????Ah!!!!"

Kal'tsit assumed that it was just her and Skadi there, so even though Skadi kissed her deeply and she could have broken free midway, Kal'tsit didn't.

The problem is...

The problem was that she hadn't expected there to be someone else watching.

When she heard the sound and looked up at Madam Chen Qiuxu standing at the top of the stairs on the second floor, she was stunned for a moment, then her scream grew louder.

“Hey, hey, shush.

Skadi looked up again and silenced Kal'tsit's scream with her own mouth.

Only when she angrily pushed him away and glared at him did he raise a finger to his lips.

"Don't be so afraid, Dr. Kal'tsit, Mrs. Chen won't tell anyone about this."

After Skadi finished speaking, she turned around and looked at Chen Qiuxu, blinking her eyes.

"I won't tell anyone, don't worry."

Madam Chen Qiuxu wore a smile, but despite saying that, she seemed somewhat forlorn.

"Huijie, Huijie... if you continue like this, you will never win."

She was both happy about Skadi's "choice" and very troubled by her disappointing daughter.

If Chen had been a little braver, things wouldn't have come to this.

Even though I've already explained my feelings to Skadi, why can't we continue?

"Alright, alright, Dr. Kal'tsit, what's the matter?"

Skadi pulled Dr. Kal'tsit back to the coffee table on the first floor and sat her down on the sofa. Skadi looked at her, wondering why.

"Colombia extended an invitation to us to conduct medical research."

"They said the incident last time was a misunderstanding, and they are very interested in the research we are doing now, so they want us to come over."

Kal'tsit was filled with emotion, but she still explained things clearly.

"A Feast at Hongmen."

Skadi knew immediately that this was not a good invitation.

This is clearly an invitation to them, intended to intimidate them.

"The Feast at Hongmen?"

Kal'tsit didn't quite understand the meaning of this word.

"It refers to arranging a meeting or banquet with ill intentions, harboring malicious intent and having ulterior motives."

Skadi explained it to herself, and told herself not to use such words carelessly in the future.

Is that so?

The all-knowing Kal'tsit learned a new word and nodded.

She then explained Columbia's purpose and reasons for doing this, which she and Theresa had analyzed together.

"I don't know if it's a trap or not, but Colombia definitely has a lot of complaints about us right now."

"If we manage to do something and beat them this time, they will target us even more."

"But if we lose, the reputation of our medical profession at Babel will be completely ruined."

"However, if we don't go, they will have more excuses to deal with us."

"It can be said to be an open scheme. Whether to go or not, whether to win or not, is all within the other party's plan."

Kal'tsit is still very concerned about this matter.

After all, this involves her expertise and the future survival of the Tower of Babel.

The Tower of Babel's current prestige stems not only from Theresa's personal charisma, but also from the Doctor's reputation and the Tower of Babel's widespread fame.

Medical research

People in Colombia understand this now, which is why they're targeting them with medication.

What they are suppressing is their strongest medical research.

The question is whether or not we dare to go.

If it weren't for the Doctor, Kal'tsit would have taken on this task herself.

But if she leaves the Tower of Babel and the Doctor doesn't wake up, Theresa will be in a very dangerous situation.

Only when Skadi returns and the Tower of Babel is truly operational can this matter be addressed.

Her "worst-case scenario" was to act before Skadi woke up, and even then, there was a possibility of failure.
