Skadi, returning to infinity

Taking a deep breath to calm herself down, Kal'tsit looked at her and asked again.

[Just like you, I'm merely a human being.]

"No, although you are also human, you are not a human of this era."

"Logically speaking, such humans should be extinct, but you are still alive."

"Can you tell me why? How did I survive until now, and how did I come to know Theresa?"

Kal'tsit is a doctor who has been studying Oripathy for a long time.

Moreover, because of her previous work at the Ursus Lab, she was extremely sensitive to this matter and wanted to know more inside information.

Since the doctor won't listen to force, let's try a gentler approach.

[I had been asleep, and after waking up, I wandered aimlessly until I encountered Princess Theresa.]

If you don't believe me, you can ask His Highness for confirmation.

Skadi was certain that Kal'tsit wouldn't ask Theresa about this.

This would expose some of Kal'tsit's intentions, which might be things Theresa had forbidden.

Her constant emphasis on Theresa was also a way of implying and reminding Kal'tsit that she was now considered Theresa's person, and that she had better not do anything reckless.

“I will ask Theresa for confirmation, but right now I’m more interested in knowing in what ways you can help Theresa.”

You know about her situation, right?

Kal'tsit calmed herself down and continued asking questions.

His identity can be investigated later.

However, knowing his intentions as early as possible will allow us to take precautions sooner.

"I know, that's why I'm here to help Princess Theresa deal with her rebellious brother, the current false king Theresis of Kazdel."

That's true. Perhaps she won't kill Theresis now, but will instead make him an interesting pawn in her game.

But when it comes to doing it, she will absolutely not hold back.

"You can do this? I have my doubts."

Judging from both the doctor's words and his actions, he doesn't seem like the kind of person who could do such a thing.

Moreover, he was just an ordinary person with no physical strength, and he probably wouldn't be able to fight back against the Sarkaz's Originium Arts.

This kind of person still wants to help Theresa regain everything she has lost.

Is it fair to say he was too arrogant, or that he hadn't grasped the current situation?

I can do it, and I can help Princess Theresa regain what she has lost.

I can also teach you more advanced medical skills, allowing you to advance further.

【Dr. Kal'tsit, would you be interested in having an in-depth conversation with me, to learn about each other's strengths and weaknesses?】

A message suddenly appeared on the virtual screen.

As she finished speaking, Kal'tsit's expression turned unpleasant.

Is this guy flirting with me?

As she stood up, the doctor had already appeared in front of her without her noticing.

Through the light-blocking mask, she could almost see the doctor's aggressive gaze.

This made her body freeze for a moment, and her mind went blank.

She didn't come to her senses until Mon3tr appeared behind her and made eye contact with Skadi, who had put her arm around her shoulder.

This guy touched me.

PS: This is the third update yesterday. I originally planned to update around 4 or 5 o'clock, but then I thought that I would probably be the only one awake at that time.

So I've switched to updating in the morning, and I'll try to update during the day and night as much as possible, instead of in the early morning.

PS2: Thank you everyone for your support. I will work harder to update. Three updates a day is still the minimum (this is from yesterday, so it doesn't count as today's).

Chapter 7: Kal'tsit, trust the Doctor.

"Um, I was just joking. Please, Dr. Kal'tsit, have mercy."

With her hands raised, Skadi took two steps back as if surrendering.

She no longer spoke through the virtual screen; her tone was filled with fear.

"Mon3tr." Frowning, she looked at the person in front of her. With the M3, would it be possible to remove his hood?

"Dr. Kal'tsit, Dr. Kal'tsit! Are you there?"

Just as she was about to make up her mind, a voice came from outside.

"What's wrong?" Kal'tsit put away her M3, glanced at Skadi, and then went to open the door.

"A wounded soldier has been brought in, and his injuries are very serious. None of the other doctors are here."

"You're the only one who can perform the surgery on her now."

A female Sarkaz woman stood in the doorway, her clothes torn in many places, revealing her wounded skin.

Her face was full of worry; clearly, the injured person was very important to her.

"Take me there."

No matter what kind of doctor he is, he is not as important as a wounded soldier right now.

Kal'tsit followed the agitated Sarkaz woman out of the rest area.

"Let's go with them." Skadi put her hand down, thought for a moment, and still felt that going would be better.

She needs to repair her relationship with Kal'tsit so that she won't have such a strong opinion against her.

Moreover, she might actually be able to demonstrate her medical skills to prove that she wasn't lying.

Kal'tsit and the others walked quickly, but Skadi wasn't worried at all. She wanted to make some preparations before going over.

After Skadi had everything prepared, she picked up the key, locked the door, and headed towards the injured area.

Along the way, you could see members of the Tower of Babel rushing around, as if something very important had happened outside that required them to get things running.

She slowly made her way to the wounded area, and once inside, she found that the situation was even worse than she had imagined.

All the sheets had patients on them, and each one looked to have serious injuries.

And this is just a regular ward; the intensive care unit is probably full as well.

Were so many wounded soldiers injured in the battle of the two kings, or were there other causes?

Skadi, puzzled, followed Kal'tsit's scent to an operating room.

She reached out her hand, hesitated for a moment, and then opened the door.

The sound of the door opening didn't disturb the person inside. Kal'tsit stood in front of the operating table, silently watching the patient.

After a while, she turned back to look at the Sarkaz woman.

"There's nothing that can be done about this injury."

"Even if it can be cured, it will only mean living a few more days in pain."

"As a doctor, I can perform this kind of surgery."

"but.....

"I still suggest that she be euthanized."

Kal'tsit's tone lost the aggressive feel she had when speaking to the Doctor; instead, it sounded somewhat powerless.

It wasn't that she didn't want to save the person, but given the current situation, even if she did, the person wouldn't live much longer.

"The spine was completely broken, the bones in the chest cavity were shattered, and there were also signs of fractures in the skull."

"The injured person is unconscious and breathing very weakly."

"Multiple organs in the body began to fail, and the heart was not receiving enough blood."

"I was able to survive entirely because of Originium Arts."

"......No wonder.

Skadi walked over to Kal'tsit and looked at the wounded person's file.

No wonder they didn't dare to act recklessly and had to seek help from Kal'tsit.

This is not something that can be cured by conventional medical techniques; at most, it can only prolong her suffering for a few more days.

As a doctor, she felt obligated to not abandon any patient.

But given the situation where even performing surgery would only increase the patient's suffering, she could only offer the patient's family another option.

"But...but, Shayana...she..."

As the woman Sarkaz spoke, she covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face.

After learning the extent of Shayana's injuries, she knew there was little chance she could save her.

But she still wanted to give it a try and see how it went.

Even if it means suffering for a few days, would you accept it?

Kal'tsit was silent for a moment after hearing her say that, then continued to ask.

"I...I don't know either."

She wanted to say a few last words to Shayana, or to hear Shayana say a few last words.

She knew it was selfish to do this, but she couldn't bring herself to let Shayana die like that.

"Dr. Kal'tsit, let me do it."

Skadi spoke up at this moment, interrupting Kal'tsit's thoughts.
