Skadi, returning to infinity

"So you should try to delay as much as possible."

“But I’m still very worried about them, so I plan to arrange for a suitable person to go with you to protect you.”

"This is also a way of protecting you."

"how?"

Dr. Kal'tsit frowned upon hearing her words.

Who are you sending with us?

She is still very wary of outsiders; she won't accept anyone who isn't trustworthy.

"Come, my knight."

Skadi didn't answer her, she just snapped her fingers.

As she finished speaking, she snapped her fingers, and a heavily armored knight in black appeared beside her.

It was Lancelot, the Black Knight, who stood silently beside Skadi, like a guardian deity.

"Him? Although I can trust him completely because of you."

"But he's a newcomer, isn't he? Won't his appearance make people suspect that you've returned?"

Kal'tsit had naturally been observing the Black Knight.

This Black Knight is an extremely powerful being, a formidable warrior that ordinary Originium Arts users simply cannot handle.

But it would be strange if the Colombians didn't suspect something when such a person suddenly appeared in their lives.

"Every faction has a powerful hidden force, so why doesn't the Tower of Babel have one?"

“From now on, Babel will also have such a force, and they will only obey my orders, Dr. Kal'tsit, and Princess Theresa.”

"They are a group of powerful hunters hidden in the darkness, but in the light, they are also a group of powerful warriors that are unmatched."

"Lancelot is one of these powerful warriors; we're just bringing him into our lives now."

"After all, I've only made a name for myself on Terra for a little over a year, and I've spent most of that time inside the Tower of Babel."

"During this period, I created a group of powerful warriors, which is in line with what those people suspected."

"Moreover, even without using magic that they consider Originium Arts, Lancelot's combat abilities are still outstanding."

"This will also lead to speculation among the Colombian people about our biotechnology and pharmaceutical technology."

"They'll wonder what drugs and methods we used to cultivate such powerful, robot-like warriors."

"Once they make such a conjecture, we don't need to fill in the rest; they will fill in the information for us on their own."

"What we need to do is occasionally reveal the existence of other Black Knights and let them know that we have such a force."

Skadi gave a sweet smile, but what she said was anything but sweet.

She's dragging the entire field of medical research in Colombia into an abyss.

She did this for a reason; it was based on subsequent collaborations between Rhine Lab and the military in research on life sciences such as Infected and Originium.

plan.

It's an open conspiracy to drag Colombia down a wrong path right now, causing internal conflicts to erupt within them.

If the Black Knight performs well enough this time, it will definitely excite those people and make them invest all their funds in research.

aspect.

Skadi didn't care what they would discover by then.

In short, she wanted to create internal conflicts within Colombia and cause problems for the empire.

This would make things much easier for her, and she wouldn't have to worry about threats from Colombia all the time.

Are you trying to spark their interest in life sciences?

"Won't this cause a lot of sacrifices?"

"no.

Kal'tsit was, after all, a doctor, although in her view, some research was bound to cost lives.

But this doesn't mean she should support research in this area.

"Dr. Kal'tsit, they will still do it even if we don't guide them."

"We just let them open Pandora's box ahead of time..."

"Or rather, they have already done it, but we just don't know it."

"Now is the time to uncover the truth."

Skadi suddenly walked up to Kal'tsit, placed her hands on her shoulders, gazed into her eyes, and said these words.

Kal'tsit fell silent, pondering Skadi's words.

Her emotions told her this was absolutely unacceptable, but her reason told her it was feasible...

PS: Updated to 4200/20000.

PS2: As usual, I'm asking for recommendations, monthly tickets, swords (a metaphor for emotional appeal), and donations. Thank you everyone.

[Chapter 19]: An Accidental Kiss, I Won't Let Go! Author's Announcement

Are the people in Colombia really conducting this kind of research?

Kal'tsit stood up and slowly paced around the sofa.

She didn't disbelieve Skadi's words, but she wanted to see evidence.

"It's not hard to find evidence for this, Dr. Kal'tsit."

"This trip to Colombia may be the time to find their evidence."

Skadi was quite certain that they seemed to be able to find this evidence.

"If this really exists, wouldn't Columbia keep it hidden?"

Kal'tsit frowned, still somewhat skeptical.

"They will definitely hide it."

"But that doesn't mean we can't find it."

"Dr. Kal'tsit, trust me, I can find it."

"Even if we don't completely ruin Colombia's reputation this time, we'll still make them suffer."

Skadi seems to be planning to settle things with Colombia now.

"Keep it and negotiate with them."

However, a voice came from behind her, offering another option.

Before they knew it, Theresa had appeared behind them.

It seems they've been listening to their conversation for a while, but are only speaking now.

"Hmm? Does Princess Theresa want to hold evidence of their crimes in order to negotiate with them later?"

Skadi turned to look at Theresa, and what she said was something that seemed completely impossible to outsiders.

After all, Theresa is a very kind person.

But having spent so much time with her, how could Skadi not know?

As the leader of a faction, Theresa is far more complex than she appears.

This is not to say that she is a malicious person, but rather that her way of handling things still reflects her considerations as a leader.

Some things cannot be handled simply, and Theresa always considers the consequences of her decisions.

She is kind, but it's definitely not the kind of kindness that comes out of nowhere.

She even has the decisiveness to sacrifice some people or things for a better future.

This is somewhat similar to Kiritsugu Emiya's philosophy, but also completely different.

"Your Highness? If they really are experimenting on infected individuals, won't more infected people be harmed if we don't address this issue?"

Kal'tsit frowned; she felt Theresa's decision was somewhat inappropriate.

"Don't worry, if we obtain evidence that Colombia is conducting experiments on humans."

"Then they won't dare to do such experiments again in the short term, or to do them in a big way."

"And in order to keep our secret, the Colombian side will definitely not cause us any more trouble."

"With this period of vacuum, we will develop even better."

"As for whether this will lead to greater injustice and a more dangerous situation for those infected in Colombia..."

"To be honest, whether we do these things or not, it won't change anything."

"At least for now, we are still the Tower of Babel, still subordinate to the Kazdel faction, and cannot intervene as a public power."

"Therefore, it is impossible for us to change them; that would be blatant interference in the internal affairs of another country, which is a very serious diplomatic issue."

"Moreover, with our current strength, we are far behind Colombia."

“We can rescue them, but only if we are already capable of protecting ourselves.”

"Instead of the current situation where even self-preservation is difficult."

"That's exactly what Princess Theresa was thinking."

"No matter how heinous Colombia's actions may be..."

"All we can do is gather evidence of what they're doing, make deals with them covertly, and slightly curb their research in this area."

It is. ”
