Skadi, returning to infinity

This is not a disease at all; it's a type of parasitic worm.

She's been bewitched.

"No, it can't be said that he was cursed, but rather that he was possessed."

Seeing that the area around the girl had turned into ice, but the bed where she was lying remained unchanged, Skadi leaned down and reached out her hand.

After a slight hesitation, he lifted the girl's collar, revealing her lower abdomen.

Skadi's lower abdomen looked fine, but she could feel a life inside.

It was a "worm," or more accurately, a snake-like "Originium Infected Beast" emanating a chilling aura.

It uses a very special method to penetrate into the human body, and then that person becomes its target.

However, perhaps due to the girl's special constitution, or for some other reason, it was unable to control the girl immediately.

It not only failed to control the girl, but in some cases it even caused the girl to become completely one with it.

That's why, in order to save its life, it released its energy and then infiltrated the girl's heart and lungs, waiting for an opportunity.

Because its life force completely overlapped with that of the girl, not only doctors, but even disembowelment could not find its existence; it was necessary to...

Only people with special abilities can find it.

That's why, to outsiders, the little girl's illness seemed to have appeared suddenly and was incurable.

Actually, solving this problem isn't that difficult; all you need to do is remove the Gu worm.

The problem is that no one else noticed the existence of the Gu worms, let alone found them.

If Skadi hadn't possessed such immense vitality that she could sense unusual life force, she wouldn't have noticed this problem.

"That's interesting."

She gently placed her palm on her lower abdomen and closed her eyes.

Warm life energy flowed into the girl's body, dispelling the coldness within her.

Furthermore, the energy that merged into the girl's body brought about the effects of spring warmth, blooming flowers, and melting ice and snow, directly causing all the surrounding ice to melt away.

They're all starting to melt.

The melted ice water didn't flow everywhere; instead, Skadi gathered it together to form a water sphere.

"I've found you." Wherever Skadi's life force passed, the girl's previous injuries were instantly healed.

The worm could no longer hide like an ostrich; it wanted to burrow into the girl's heart and live and die with her to ensure its own safety.

But how could Skadi do as it wished? Her energy directly formed a square energy box, enveloping it within.

Then she slowly raised her hand, and the ball of energy enveloping the Gu worm emerged from her abdomen.

Skadi didn't care as it struggled and bared its teeth at her.

He waved his hand and threw it directly into the puddle of water behind him.

"Is it quiet now?"

Although it is an ice-type, Skadi is a god, a ruler, in this pool of water, and Skadi has no way to struggle.

Furthermore, while living things cannot live without water, apart from aquatic organisms, few other creatures would not be afraid when encased in water like this.

Besides, it only looks like a snake, but it's not a real water snake; it can only tremble in this pool of water.

"Hmm..."

If it's just a matter of removing the Gu worms, then the girl might need to rest and recuperate for a long time.

After removing the worms, Koskati also repaired the damage inside her body.

The torment she had endured these past few days, and the weakening of her bodily functions due to lack of food, quickly returned to normal after repair.

Even healthier than before.

So, just a few minutes after the Gu worms were removed, the girl's long eyelashes fluttered, and she woke up with a soft "ooh".

"What...what happened to me?"

The girl first rubbed her forehead; her head was a little foggy.

Then she saw Skadi standing next to her, and when she saw Skadi's red eyes looking at her, she became nervous.

"Huh? Who are you?"

Her voice wasn't loud, but the guards still heard it.

The door, which wasn't locked to begin with, opened with a gentle push.

His face was filled with surprise and panic, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the girl sitting up straight.

"Miss, you're awake?"

The girl was fourteen or fifteen years old, while the guard looked to be twenty-three or twenty-four.

Skadi sensed something else in the guards' behavior, but that wasn't something she needed to care about.

"What...what happened to me?"

The girl still didn't understand what had happened. She only remembered that before waking up, she was very sleepy and then fell asleep in bed.

Looking back now, it seems like some very troublesome problems have occurred?

She was much calmer than the average girl, and was only flustered for a moment at first because a stranger was standing next to her.

Now that he knows he's alright and his own guards are present, it means this stranger was invited by his family. p6ny

What she needed to figure out now was what had happened to her and why the guards looked so worried.

"You were unconscious for about six days..."

"No, it's not that you've been unconscious for six days, but rather that it's been a total of six days since you fell ill."

"At first, there weren't that many problems."

"It's just that you keep repeating things that others can't understand."

"Later, you began to emanate a chilling aura that froze everything around you, making it impossible for ordinary people to get close."

"After searching for doctors without success, your family contacted me through a special method and asked me to come here."

"I have just cured you, and there will be no aftereffects."

"However, I need to know what you ate or where you went before you lost consciousness?"

"This matter is very important; it relates to the safety of this area going forward."

Skadi, disregarding the fact that she was a patient who had just woken up, told her everything she knew and then asked her a series of questions.

question.

Hearing Skadi's question, the girl frowned, placing one hand on her temple, seemingly pondering what she had just experienced.

"Miss has just woken up, so let's not ask those questions."

The guard didn't want to interrupt the doctor and the young lady's conversation, but the problem was that Skadi was asking too many questions.

The young lady's reaction, however, seemed as if she hadn't responded yet, which worried him greatly.

So he spoke directly, even if it was a bit too much, to tell Skadi not to keep asking questions.

"Hmm? My question shouldn't be too difficult..."

Skadi raised an eyebrow. She wanted to resolve the issue and then return directly to Babel before setting off for Colombia at the right time.

Therefore, she doesn't mind being a little busier if she can solve the problem quickly.

"I'm sorry, I can't remember where I went before."

"I can't remember what I ate."

"Doctor, could you give me two days off?"

"Perhaps I'll remember after I've rested enough."

The girl looked up at Skadi, her eyes filled with anticipation.

She wasn't afraid of Skadi; ​​instead, she started bargaining with her.

"I have urgent business to attend to, and I may not be able to stay for more than two days."

In fact, staying a few more days should be fine.

After all, the roads in Colombia are currently blocked to deal with the Originium Infected Beasts.

Even if it reopens later, Kal'tsit and her friends can easily use the "safety first" reason to postpone their departure for a few days.

Therefore, she can stay here for a few days without any problem, and may even be able to resolve some issues left over from before.

However, she had come over immediately after waking up and hadn't had much time to spend with Theresa, Kal'tsit, and the others. Now she wanted to hurry back to properly...

The local guides accompanied them.

"Doctor, if you have something urgent to attend to, you can go back first."

"I'll tell you remotely once I've rested and found out the reason."

"You can come here again when the time comes."

The girl didn't insist and offered a solution that seemed suitable.

However, if it weren't for Little White and the others, it would take five to seven days for a regular flying vehicle to get here from Kazdel.

With the most advanced aircraft, it can be completed within three days.

But that was before. Now, there's a powerful horde of Originium-infected beasts in the sky, and a Thunder Beast that's always looking for trouble. Using a flying vehicle...

It's giving the other party a chance.

Besides, even with a novice, it would take ten or twenty hours to come here, and two or three days to finish the work and go back.

This is such a waste of time for the situation she's in now.

So she either has to solve this problem before going back, or she can only wait until the next problem arises or until the girl finds the cause before coming back.

All of these options, regardless of the situation, are much more troublesome than waiting a few days.

"...Forget it, the round trip takes too long. I'll wait here for two days."
