Skadi, returning to infinity

"You want me to forge weapons for you, right?"

Skadi's intentions were completely out in the open, so how could Nian not know?

"Yes, Miss Nian, this is a transaction."

Skadi nodded, offering no denial whatsoever.

"Interesting... Okay, let's work together."

"But before that, do you want to forge a new weapon?"

"Your weapon must have been damaged before."

Whether Nian used Skadi's "disposable holy sword" as her weapon or knew that the [Timing] she was wielding was too low-level, he said...

That's what I meant.

Skadi was already somewhat worried about [Timing], who was only A-rank, since it couldn't unleash its full power.

However, she couldn't find a suitable weapon for the time being, so she could only wait and see if she could buy one through the market in the Gods' Space.

She had considered forging a new one to replace the one she currently had.

To forge new weapons, a suitable craftsman must be found, otherwise even the materials cannot be melted down.

Having inherited a multitude of treasures, Skadi naturally possesses a great many precious materials from various worlds.

These materials were placed quietly in a corner of the space and had never been opened from the beginning.

Because they are just materials, even if they have special abilities, they cannot replace complete equipment.

Moreover, even if we were to use them for something, we couldn't achieve 100% effectiveness; it would be a complete waste.

Skadi had considered keeping them for a more opportune time, but she couldn't say when that opportune moment would arrive.

clear.

Now, Nian's words have directly stirred up the matter that Skadi has been thinking about all along.

She has plenty of materials at her disposal; she could easily forge several swords, let alone just one.

Judging from the size of [Timing], it would take approximately 40 to 60 units of willpower to forge a weapon of the same size.

She wasn't reluctant to part with them, but she was worried about whether the person who forged them could truly make full use of the materials' capabilities.

Let alone ordinary people, even S-rank forgers who specialize in blacksmithing can't guarantee they can successfully craft these materials.

SS-class agents might be more stable, but it would be difficult for them to live up to Skadi's inner desires.

She was prepared to find an SSS-level blacksmith before handing over the materials.

The new weapon they wanted to find on the market was also intended to be used during this transitional period.

【Timing】has special meaning, but no matter how special the meaning, it is useless if the practicality is not up to par.

This also applies to some higher-level weapons, such as the S-rank dagger [Jade Dagger - Night Glass].

If Skadi had a more suitable set of equipment, it would definitely replace her, but unfortunately, just like [Timing], there isn't one at the moment.

As a "god", and a forging-type "god", if you really give her the materials, she can actually create a suitable weapon.

Of course, this process will take a long time, and the current region is absolutely unable to provide the energy needed to manufacture this weapon.

So she hesitated, wondering whether or not to hand it over to Nian.

Are you worried that I can't do it, or that I'll embezzle your materials?

While she was thinking, Nian suddenly stood up, approached her, bent down, and whispered in Skadi's ear.

"Eeya........

Startled by the sound in her ear, Skadi raised her head, her lips almost touching Nian's.

"Crack." Kal'tsit, who had been holding the cup and watching them talk, tightened her grip a little, and the tile cup shattered.

It made a crisp sound.

Skadi also heard the sound. In order to avoid being hung on the tower for public display, Skadi leaned back slightly and looked at Nian.

"Miss Nian, do you have some ideas?"

Since she had asked so directly, Skadi really wanted to know the reason.

"Don't worry too much about things like the forging environment."

"I can help you solve these problems, and I can also help you forge other weapons while I'm at it."

"However, you have to promise me one thing."

"Of course, I won't ask you to do it now. I'll come to you when I need it."

"Don't worry, it's absolutely within your power. Whether you can do it or not is entirely up to you."

After the New Year, he stepped back, raised an eyebrow, and stated his request.

"That's acceptable..."

Skadi thought about it and realized it wasn't something unacceptable.

To put it bluntly, Nian wants to use what he's doing for her now in exchange for a promise from her.

At the same time, he was also building a good relationship with Skadi so that they could cooperate in the future.

She had this idea in mind, so she could take a step back and agree to Skadi's request.

Why should Skadi worry so much? With someone like Nian forging weapons for her, it's beneficial both for herself and for the entire Tower of Babel.

For all of them, this is a very good thing.

"Then it's settled."

He reached out his hand and looked at Skadi.

"Snapped"

The girl stood up and raised her hand.

The two hands clasped in the air as a vow, which also announced the cooperation between Nian and Skadi.

"Haha...this is so much fun."

Having gotten what he wanted, Nian sat down and unceremoniously continued to pour himself hot tea.

"Excuse me for asking... Miss Nian, isn't it hot?"

The new tea was brewed by Chen Qiuxu. She had just seen Nian's completely indifferent expression and thought she hadn't noticed.

Seeing that she seemed genuinely unconcerned about this, Chen Qiuxu became somewhat curious.

"Hot? The temperature isn't high."

After finishing his hot tea, Nian turned to look at Chen Qiuxu, slightly puzzled.

"Yes, Miss Nian's body temperature is about 1400°C. Hot tea at less than 100°C is no problem for her."

Seeing this, Skadi offered an explanation for Nian.

"1...1400°?"

Chen Qiuxu opened her eyes wide in surprise, genuinely not expecting such a thing.

The woman in front of me, who looked like a young girl, had a body temperature of around 1400 degrees Celsius.

This means she is a moving volcano, capable of turning an area into scorched earth at will.

That's amazing!

"This is nothing to be surprised about, Madam Chen. Nian is a [god], it's perfectly normal for him to be different from ordinary people."

"Or rather, if a god were just like a human, that would be a terrifying being."

"Because no one knows what these guys with human desires and emotions might do."

Skadi's words were a preparation for when she would encounter the Black Serpent in the future.

She wouldn't let that guy off easily, even if he was a god.

"Little Kal'tsit, you..."

As they were talking, the half-closed hall door was pushed open, and Theresa walked in carrying a stack of documents.

Looking up, she first saw Kal'tsit sitting on the sofa. Just as she opened her mouth, she saw Skadi standing up from the sofa with her back to the door.

For a moment, she was completely unable to continue speaking...

All the words they wanted to say were silenced in the stillness of their moment.

Chapter 5: Please, no more chaotic scenes!

"Little Skadi".

Although Skadi didn't speak or show anything, Theresa could tell at a glance that it was Skadi, not Titi.

"Your Highness Theresa."

Skadi called out softly.

The woman with long, pinkish-white hair standing there smiled.

"Yes, Skadi."

She slowly walked over and stopped in front of Skadi.

He reached out and gently stroked her face.

"You haven't lost weight...you seem to be doing well."

Although Theresa didn't know what Skadi was going to do, she wouldn't ask.

But as long as Skadi has no problem, she will absolutely not ask any further questions.

Unless Skadi returns one day covered in wounds, she will never allow Skadi to go out again.
