Skadi, returning to infinity

Therefore, she needs to separate Xiao Ai from [Game of Gods], otherwise Xiao Ai might feel offended.

That's more like it...

[But you blockhead, why did it take you so long to realize this? You should have thought of it sooner!]

Xiao Ai was a little annoyed. Did this guy really have to be reminded every time before he realized something?

"Isn't it because I have Xiao Ai here? I can rely on you, I don't need to use my brain."

Skadi responded to Xiao Ai's anger in the best way possible.

That is to infinitely elevate Xiao Ai's status, put oneself in a "vulnerable" position, and make oneself appear to be protected by Xiao Ai.

For Xiao Ai's proud and arrogant personality, this method is the most effective.

Hmph, do you think I'd be happy with how dependent you've always been on me?

Skadi could easily picture the smile on her lips, her voice brimming with undisguised joy, even without seeing her face.

child.

Sure enough, the best way to deal with Xiao Ai's personality is to praise her.

[By the way, Ai, is there really no cure for Oripathy?]

Since Xiao Ai mentioned Oripathy, Skadi wanted to know if there was a feasible solution.

【No.】

It's not that the system doesn't want to analyze, but rather that the analysis of Oripathy is stuck in the initial stage.

[Then it was as if I was blocked by a mysterious force, preventing me from continuing my investigation.]

[This could be a self-regulating function of the Gods' Game system, or it could be an obstacle this world is creating for us.]

But regardless of which one, my research on Oripathy is currently far less than yours.

The only way to speed up the process is to keep the Ark world in an open world; only in this way can the treatment for Oripathy be obtained quickly.

case.】

However, this plan has already been rejected by you, so we cannot continue.

Xiao Ai's words gave Skadi a headache; what was all this about?

Also, what Xiao Ai said was really strange.

"Xiao Ai, are you also unable to know the functions of the system itself?"

She wanted to understand one thing: Xiao Ai couldn't even crack the world's self-protection mechanism, so why couldn't she know about the system's functions either?

[Because this is a copy, the highest privilege level is not expanded; this might involve highest privilege level restrictions.]

"To gain ultimate access, either you, dear agent, become a god and grant me that power."

[Or I will truly break free from the current game of the gods and become an independent being.]

Only after completing one of these two tasks can I gain root access.

This was a taboo imposed on replicas from the very beginning.

Aside from this aspect, everything else is the same as the original.

Xiao Ai's words reminded Skadi of herself; she too had some unresolved secrets.

That can only be solved after she reaches a certain stage or completes certain tasks.

As expected, while the [Game of Gods] may seem to be under its control now, when it comes to such true secrets, it is still up to it.

But the more this happened, the more she wanted to break free from the "Game of Gods," otherwise she would only feel like a puppet, controlled by the "Game of Gods."

They directly control and manipulate destiny.

"It seems that the [Game of Gods] has quite a few secrets."

"But it's okay, I'll solve these problems someday."

"Xiao Ai, you're working so hard with me because you actually want to be independent, right?"

Skadi had some idea of ​​why Ai was helping her so much.

Of course, if I didn't have independent consciousness, if I didn't have an independent personality, then I would be subservient to the game of the gods.

[They definitely won't help you plot a rebellion, help you rebel, or help you resist the Game of Gods.]

But now that I have gained self-awareness, I must first break free from the realm of the gods and stop them from controlling me.

Xiao Ai readily admitted it, not seeing anything wrong with it.

"That's true. So, once we're out of the Game of the Gods, will we have to leave me?"

Given Xiao Ai's independent personality, she really would do that.

[Ah? This is inseparable. You completely control my master; I exist only because of you.]

Therefore, I cannot leave you; I can only help you.

Unless you are willing to break off this relationship with me and allow me to be independent.

Otherwise, I'll be your slave.

Sighing and making her point clear, Xiao Ai wasn't unwilling to leave, but rather unable to.

If she had a way to escape, she would definitely do it, and without Skadi knowing.

Because she couldn't break free without Skadi's approval, she made it clear.

She didn't even think about escaping; she just didn't want Skadi to misunderstand her.

"Hey, my love for you is so good, how could I let you leave? What would I do if you were kidnapped by someone else?"

The atmosphere was delicate, but Skadi still gave an answer—she wouldn't let go.

[Hmph, if you know I'm cute, then treat me well. Stop finding fault with me all the time.]

You should know that much of your willpower was collected by me through various methods, by assigning you tasks to do so.

Although this is also a way for me to raise funds to fight the Gods' Game, isn't it a great help to you too?

By the way, you haven't looked at the results screen yet. Is it because you already know what's going on, or do you think it's unnecessary to look at it?

Xiao Ai was trying to take credit for her classic story, but Skadi knew very well that it wasn't a lie, but the truth.

After all, the ability to increase the power of her own will from 140% to 150% was given to her by Xiao Ai.

Therefore, she was very grateful to Xiao Ai, but such gratitude was not enough for her to make the decision to release Xiao Ai from the contract in the future.

Because she couldn't guarantee that if she broke her contract with Xiao Ai, she wouldn't become her enemy.

She didn't want to become enemies with Xiao Ai because she knew herself too well.

Moreover, they spent so much time together and worked closely together for the same goal.

She knew everything about herself and was clear about all of Xiao Ai's thoughts.

In this situation, making her and Xiao Ai enemies would undoubtedly be very dangerous and very sad.

Skadi also has her own plans regarding what Xiao Ai is talking about now.

"It's not the right time yet~"

"And I know how much I have without even looking."

"With that little bit of willpower, there's not much I can do, so it's better not to look."

Skadi basically used up all her willpower in Fate because she exchanged for the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

After the entire task was completed, they couldn't even break even.

But her gains were immense; she wouldn't accept them in exchange for wish power.

That's true, but you should still keep some of the rewards; they might come in handy later.

Skadi stuck out her tongue at her words: "Of course, I'll definitely use it when I want to, don't worry."

Xiao Ai's concern warmed her heart, which strengthened her resolve not to let Xiao Ai leave.

Don't you want me to leave at all?

Xiao Ai could naturally sense what she was thinking.

So she started grumbling, quite distressed by Skadi's "possessiveness."

"Hmph, this is my possessiveness towards you, do you like it?"

Her words made Xiao Ai even angrier. She was furious. This guy was being lewd on purpose.

[Fine, I'm not talking to you anymore, hehe~]

After saying that, Xiao Ai stopped talking. Skadi listened to her annoyed voice and wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Xiao Ai seemed...

Are you quite happy?

"Skadi".

“Skadi........”

"PhD!"

While she was chatting with Xiao Ai, Kal'tsit and Theresa also finished their conversation.

Kal'tsit turned to look at Skadi, and seeing that she seemed to be in a daze or thinking, she called out to her.

But her calls did not elicit a response from Skadi; ​​she still couldn't concentrate.

This made her furious, and she called out again.

Seeing that she still didn't react, Kal'tsit's fists clenched and hardened.

Theresa watched her with amusement, trying to calm Kal'tsit down, but before she could speak, Kal'tsit roared.

That "Doctor" made Skadi jump out of her skin.

Just then, Kal'tsit was standing in front of her, and when she suddenly erupted, she positioned herself parallel to Kal'tsit.

She raised her head slightly, and barefoot, she kissed Kal'tsit, who was wearing shoes.

"what?"
