Skadi, returning to infinity

SSS-rank weapons are typically used to fight enemies of the same rank.

Since that's the case, even if it can only amplify oneself and offset the opponent's domain, and the range isn't large, it doesn't matter.

But it's different at SSSS level. SSSS level is when the power of heaven and earth resonates with one's own abilities, forming a kind of "domain sky island effect".

Once it appears, it can form an absolute suppression and absolute control over other life forms, centered on the time when it exerts its domain, or centered on itself.

It is a small world that is both independent and connected to the outside world within a larger world; it is an expansion of the domain and an extension of one's own thoughts and will.

Although the concept of SSSS-level didn't exist in "Game of Gods" before, the huge gap between SSS-level players and the completely different domains already told others that there were differences even among SSS-level players.

This is simply a matter of making this gap more concrete, letting everyone know just how big the gap really is.

"I didn't unfold a small world."

"However... it might also be due to some special reasons."

Themis wasn't entirely sure either, but in any case, as long as she was there, Rhodes Island was safe, and that was enough.

"My intelligence also indicates that there are no dangerous enemies."

"It seems that ever since the Doctor came and dealt with all the lurking guys in the Tower of Babel, nothing like this has happened again."

"But this is also a good thing, at least it will allow us to get through this period safely."

Precys checked the records but found nothing similar.

"Well, what about the fourth and fifth pieces of bad news, Themis? Tell me them all at once."

Skadi secretly pinched Kal'tsit's cheek, only to have Kal'tsit open her mouth and bite it.

But she didn't actually bite hard. Instead, after biting for a while, she suddenly put her finger in her mouth and gently teased it with her little tongue.

The scene was well hidden, but it was seen by Precys.

Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her eyes were misty with tears. Precys didn't say anything, pretending not to see it.

Skadi naturally knew what was going on with her reaction, but Kal'tsit didn't notice it.

"The fourth piece of bad news is that a few formidable individuals have recently awakened among the demons in the North."

"The weakest one is about my strength, and the strongest one should be as strong as my eldest sister..."

"There might even be others just as strong as my brother..."

The "older brother" that Themis mentioned is the leader of the Originium Beasts, a fact that Skadi is still unaware of.

Themis, however, seemed to be very wary of this and had no intention of telling her.

This was the first time she had mentioned "older brother." The group of guys who had awakened in the North were probably not easy to deal with.

How many are there in total?

If the quantity is really large, then she needs to think twice.

There are nine in total.

"What's wrong? Are you scared, Miss Skadi, who is both intelligent and brave and incomparably beautiful?"

Themis stated the number of enemies, and then Skadi frowned, which the Themis assumed was out of fear.

"Do not……"

Shake his head.

"Xiao Ai gave me a task."

Show the panel and tell Themis why you reacted that way.

[The Demon King of the North - Prelude - SSSS-Rank Quest: The evil gods worshipped by the demons of the North have awakened, and nine demons who have gained the gods' approval have awakened from their slumber with immense power.]

Their gazes were fixed on the continent of Terra, where a massive demonic army was beginning to assemble, preparing to march south. Their objective was to eliminate these nine demonic lords and halt the invasion of the northern demons.

"...So I started a mission for you with just one sentence?"

Having spent four years together, they were very familiar with the information within Skadi's system.

Therefore, Themis's expression changed slightly after seeing this content.

She began to worry that she might have put Skadi in a very dangerous situation.

"It's a good thing, after all, I also need to go to Ursus to do some things."

"This is just to let me know in advance what I have to do and what I need to be wary of."

"I should thank you."

Skadi glanced at Kal'tsit, who had turned her head to look intently at the screen, then stared at Themis, seemingly unconcerned about her self-reproach.

"I hope so..."

"You might not believe me if I say this... but if it's about dealing with evil spirits, perhaps they'll help you..."

The "they" that Themis refers to are naturally the Originium Beasts.

But Skadi doesn't want to do that now; at least, she wants to see what they really think before she gets to know them.

P.S.: The update will be released next Monday. I'll catch up on this month's updates and try to climb the update rankings.

PS2: The Elden Ring is poorly optimized. I got up early for it, but it's so laggy I can't play it. I didn't sleep well either, so I'm exhausted all day. It's so frustrating.

Chapter Twenty-Eight: The children have all grown up.

"The last piece of bad news..."

"Do you still remember that 'god' who ran back from the Great Yan to seek revenge on you? He seems to have begun to break free from the shackles of fate, and his actions have become much faster."

"Although we have Rhodes Island and can go anywhere."

"But now he can wait and see."

"After all, we have to get back here eventually, and that's when he'll come looking for revenge."

"I don't know what will happen next."

"All I know is that if I don't get rid of it, I might be facing a powerful guy who's always causing me trouble."

"These so-called gods who possess human minds are truly detestable..."

Themis pursed her lips, her face full of dislike for this guy.

I don't know why. Maybe it's because he hurt me, or maybe it's because that guy is so annoying.

Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps...

Skadi wasn't entirely sure what she was thinking, but she was still quite happy that she was on Skadi's side in this matter.

"Is that so... Hmm, I understand, I'll take care of it."

That guy, to put it bluntly, achieved the state of evil god by reversing the cultivation of the strange book that Lady Ghost cultivated, and by sacrificing the lives of millions of people.

Such a "god" is not only not a protector of the world, but also a scourge to the region.

If it weren't for the fact that his methods of becoming a god were so heinous that he was directly punished by heaven and imprisoned in some place.

It's estimated that he would have messed up the Great Yan Dynasty, preventing it from developing as well as it does now.

But... after being imprisoned for hundreds of years, and now that I've appeared and turned him into this state, did I save him or harm him?

Think about...

Perhaps it counts as being saved? Well, it counts as saving my points.

“My dear Miss Skadi, it’s not that I didn’t warn you.”

"That's a god, a god, a god~~~ You've really risked your life."

"By then, I will have neither the obligation nor the inclination to save you, do you understand?"

Themis sighed softly. This woman, confident as she is, isn't she just too narcissistic and arrogant to the point of death?

"This is the trouble I caused, and I have to resolve it."

"Moreover, in other people's eyes, Princess Theresa died because of it."

"So whether it's for personal reasons or for Rhodes Island's sake, I must take revenge."

Upon hearing this, Themis gazed at her intently.

"You know that some grudges must be avenged, so it seems I don't need to say anything more."

Themis's meaning was clear: she was reminding Skadi that if other Originium Beasts were looking for her, she should know why.

"I've always known that."

Before Skadi could finish speaking, Kal'tsit asked a question.

"If we ignore these evil spirits, won't they just attack directly?"

"Then what use are our gods?"

"I don't doubt the existence of gods; I'm just curious whether, if they really do exist, they would watch this world be destroyed."

Kal'tsit knew that the Sea Heirs would perish in the IF timeline, but she still wanted to know.

"They definitely don't want to see it."

"Some things are different from wanting to see them and being able to do them."

"This is probably just a case of things not going as planned."

What would happen if the world were to end? Skadi has experienced it several times already.

This is something that no one can stop.

Even the so-called savior is powerless in the face of the cycle of fate and the destruction of the world.

Have you become so cowardly?
