Skadi, returning to infinity

"I'll leave first to go to the medical department to prepare and choose suitable people to go to Colombia together."

"You're going to Da Yan at noon, right? Prepare enough things. The people in Da Yan might not actually like you."

Kal'tsit's words seemed to be hinting at something, or perhaps telling Skadi that she knew quite a lot.

"I will."

Well, Kal'tsit has probably fallen into her "all-knowing" riddle-maker state again.

This wasn't a good thing, but Skadi didn't seem to care much.

After all, no matter how much of a riddle Kal'tsit is, as long as we can see her true thoughts, that's enough.

She said this after she had given that condition, which clearly showed that she didn't want to be disturbed by her own emotions and choices.

This is extremely dangerous for a researcher, and she knew that, which is why she tried to avoid it.

Of course, this avoidance felt a little odd when she said it in that tone.

"Hey... Skadi, don't worry about it. Kal'tsit actually cares about you a lot."

Theresa looked at Kal'tsit, then at Skadi.

These two people are the people she trusts and likes the most, so she is the last person she wants to see them have a conflict.

Fortunately, both Skadi and Kal'tsit, despite having their own stances and ideas, share the same goal.

Moreover, the main reason for the conflict lies in the question of safety.

Furthermore, in front of outsiders, Kal'tsit appears so calm, intelligent, and all-knowing.

But when she was in front of Skadi, she couldn't control her emotions at all; it was a change that even a fool could see.

Skadi seemed to have vaguely discovered it, but she couldn't figure out exactly what was going on.

After all, sometimes, you can only truly understand what others teach you through flexible application and practical experience.

Skadi is clearly still in this stage; she handles some things very well, and in others she's just a clumsy newbie.

Indeed, theoretical discussions alone are insufficient; true understanding requires practical experience.

Of course, Skadi didn't fully understand what that meant yet; she just felt that Kal'tsit had become a bit irritable.

Although he was just as irritable when he lost his temper before, there's still a difference compared to now.

She had a hunch it was related to her, but she hadn't done anything to Kal'tsit, had she?

That's strange.

"I know, Your Highness Theresa. In the future, I hope that if Dr. Kal'tsit gets angry with me, you won't stop her so quickly. I want..."

Let's see what she's really angry about.

"Otherwise, Your Highness could stop me once, but if Your Highness isn't around later, won't it be difficult for me to figure out what really happened?"

"Is Dr. Kal'tsit angry, or what is she doing?"

"If she's angry, what exactly is she angry about?"

"If she wasn't angry, what was she thinking...?"

"I need to figure these things out."

"Otherwise, every time I face her in the future, I will have no way of understanding her true thoughts, and naturally I will not be able to find a solution."

“If this continues, it will definitely exacerbate the conflict between us.”

"So, Your Highness, unless Dr. Kal'tsit has truly summoned all of M3, it's best not to stop her so quickly, okay?"

Skadi begged Theresa, who had intervened to stop Kal'tsit on several occasions.

As always, Theresa always managed to quell Kal'tsit's anger.

She originally thought this was fine; with Princess Theresa around, everything would be alright.

But after she returned from her "advanced studies" in the Type-Moon world, she felt that Kal'tsit's anger and Theresa's intervention were not so simple.

It wasn't that I doubted Theresa's motives, but rather that I wanted to figure out what was really going on.

She will never understand Kal'tsit's thoughts unless she confronts her anger directly and lets her vent it.

That's why Skadi told Theresa not to stop Kal'tsit unless absolutely necessary.

"Well, since it's Skadi's request, I agree."

Theresa smiled, showing no intention of refusing her request.

Perhaps in her mind, this was the best way to handle it.

Let Skadi confront Kal'tsit herself, and let Kal'tsit's emotions truly be expressed.

Perhaps it will become a bridge to unlock the different emotions in the hearts of these two people.

If that were the case, she might see Skadi and Kal'tsit get married.

This is something to be very happy about...

Very...

Something to be happy about...

?

Theresa smiled, but after thinking about it, she suddenly fell silent.

Yes, I should be happy.

But the thought of Kal'tsit in a wedding dress, walking down the aisle with Skadi, who was also wearing a wedding dress, made her mood change.

It's gotten complicated.

Logically, that should be the case.

but......

but...

"What am I thinking?" Watching Skadi leave and talk to the others, Theresa slowly retreated to the wall and leaned against it.

She tilted her head back, looking up, her complex emotions leaving her speechless.

Perhaps I should wish them well, after all, they are the two people I like the most, and the most important people to me.

It is because Skadi and Kal'tsit are by her side that she has been able to persevere and has not left until now.

But if Skadi and Kal'tsit get married, then I...

What choice will I make?

Should I leave, or silently watch them from there?

I was just thinking about setting Skadi and Kal'tsit up, and now I'm already struggling with my complicated thoughts and feelings.

She also has her own feelings and her own grievances.

However, these are the two most important people.

One is someone I secretly like, and the other is my closest friend.

She was caught in the middle, appearing both superfluous and subtly awkward...

"What should I do...?"

At this moment, Theresa also became confused.

Chapter Twenty-One: These Rebellious Sons!

Skadi didn't sense anything amiss with Theresa; only Medea glanced at her for a moment before turning away.

"What's wrong? Don't cry..."

.. "

And Skadi? She was comforting Hanabi, who was crying very sadly.

For Hanabi, Skadi was practically everything.

However, for several dozen days, Skadi remained in a deep sleep and did not wake up no matter who tried to wake her.

If she hadn't known she was still alive and just doing some things, she probably would have died along with them.

Skadi returned today without disturbing them, which Hanabi, engrossed in her training, didn't notice.

If she hadn't come out to rest after fireworks practice, realized something was wrong, and run up to the eighth floor, she probably wouldn't have survived until Skadi's next trip back from Colombia.

When will I be able to see her again?

Even after meeting Skadi, watching her chat with Kal'tsit and Theresa about Oripathy and how to heal others...

She suppressed her worry and longing, not rushing to hug Skadi immediately, but waiting for them to finish talking, waiting for Skadi to notice her...

Myself

Tears streamed down her face; no matter how strong Hanabi was, she could no longer hide her longing.

After all, she is only fourteen years old, and Skadi is her "blood relative," the person closest to her right now.

Her dependence on Skadi was even deeper than her dependence on her mother and father.

Once this emotion is attached to the constant worry that lasts for dozens of days, the overwhelming emotions become completely uncontrollable.

So she cried in Skadi's arms, her tears soaking her clothes completely.

Skadi sensed her emotions very strongly.

Because Hanabi is her blood relative, the closer you are to her, the more you can sense her.

"Honey, I'm here."

Hanabi didn't say anything; Skadi just gently rubbed her head.

She was well aware that she had made Hanabi worry for so long, so it was perfectly normal for her to cry.
