Skadi, returning to infinity

"Are you trying to make things difficult for me?"

"Perhaps you can take that as a learning experience."

"We don't care whether you misunderstand or not."

"We just want you to know that you are different."

"We have given you a better path."

"But it seems that your choice is not what we wanted."

Is this emotional burden really necessary?

The gods were curious as to why she would refuse their kindness.

"Don't you have any feelings?"

Skadi countered with a question.

"Have."

"But our greetings are only for ourselves and will not be extended to others."

"Gods are all self-centered beings."

"Those who don't respect me, even if they become gods, will still be unsociable."

Skadi chuckled when she heard them say that.

"Then I am also unique to myself."

"Because I do this to make myself happy, to make myself feel that it's worthwhile."

"Therefore, I don't think I'm not a person who is independent."

"As long as it makes me feel satisfied, as long as what I do is something I feel is uniquely mine."

"Then I am the only one who is mine."

Skadi's answer was somewhat of a sophistry, but in a way, she was right.

"Hahaha... Interesting humans."

"You're not the first person to give such an answer."

"But no one has ever proven their theory to be correct like we have."

"Whether you will become one of them, or prove to us that this theory is correct, we would also like to see."

"But even if you can do it, you might not be able to see us alive."

Skadi felt uneasy about the god's words.

"I believe you wouldn't be looking for me out of sheer boredom."

"So tell me, what exactly happened?"

"At least let me know what dangers I am facing."

"Otherwise, being confused and not knowing anything is quite pitiful."

Skadi chuckled to herself, thinking that these gods really did enjoy being riddles.

Kal'tsit is no longer a riddle teller, so hearing these words from them now feels somewhat strange.

"If you really want to know the truth, go ask Sophia."

"She will tell you."

"Since you are the one she chose to be."

"That means she's pinning all her hopes on you." 99

"Go ask her, she'll tell you."

"As long as you are prepared."

The Sophia mentioned by the gods should be the goddess of fate, not Xiao Ai.

However, whether it's the goddess of fate or Xiao Ai, she will continue to ask if she doesn't get an answer.

"Okay, I'll ask them when I get back."

"Now, aren't you going to ask me to do something?"

"Tell me."

"But I might not agree to your request."

"Because even the gods can't do it, I really don't have the confidence to do it."

She didn't think she could do things that even gods couldn't.

So she made it clear in advance, so that the other party wouldn't have too high hopes.

"Something you can do."

The gods stopped beating around the bush and told her directly what they wanted her to do.

"Do not heed the call of any thing; they are the enemy."

"If you can resist their summons, you will receive our reward."

"Of course, if you accept their summons, then we will be enemies."

"This is something that sounds easy, but it's very difficult."

"And this matter will also be related to the answer you get after asking Sophia."

"Don't worry, we won't make you do anything else."

"We are not your enemy, nor do we want to be your enemy."

"I hope that one day in the future you will understand this."

"This is compensation for you, please accept it."

The deity uttered a strange riddle to himself, and before Skadi could even react, he sent her away and gave her a reward.

The reward transformed into a point of light and merged into her body.

After her body absorbed that point of light, she seemed to gain an incredible power.

But before she could sense what kind of power it was, she lost consciousness and returned to her room in the Ark world.

Not long after she left, the gods suddenly let out a soft sigh.

“It would be quite interesting if such a self-centered mortal became a god.”

"But since ancient times, there has never been a god as she described."

"If she continues down this path, that's the only way she'll end up..."

"Can she really... do it...?"

They seemed to be hinting at something, but Skadi couldn't hear them.

She is now surprised by the "reward" she received.

Chapter 80: It seems Miss Skadi is quite compassionate.

"Divine Protection - Fifth Rank: Possesses powerful divine protection, seemingly granting you immunity to certain divine harm. Of course, with it, you no longer need to worry about being harmed by gods below the fifth rank."

It may harm you, or it may find your way. It's the protection bestowed upon you by the gods of the stars, their compensation, or... expectation? Or love? It's unclear.

This is a heart-shaped gemstone that shines with the power of starlight. It is completely transparent, and you can see countless rays of light through it.

But after she gazed at it for a while, the heart-shaped gem suddenly turned a deep black, as if it could completely draw her attention to it.

This strange change made Skadi shake her head, avert her attention, and stop looking.

but……

"interesting."

As Skadi gazed at its changes, a glint of starlight flashed in her eyes.

She had established some kind of connection with Xingchen Zhihu from the very beginning, but now she was certain that she truly possessed some kind of stellar power.

Is it because of the Moon Goddess fragments that [Moon] gave him? Or is it because of something else?

Although she wasn't entirely sure, Skadi carefully placed the "Divine Protection" on her chest.

Then, the gem slowly disappeared and merged into her body.

In this way, she gained the protection of the gods and no longer needed to worry about being harmed by them.

Although she still couldn't deal with beings above the fifth rank of God, such gods were neither something she could deal with at the moment nor something she needed to care about.

The only beings of this level she's encountered so far seem to be Xiao Ai, [Yue], and [Bai].

But Xiao Ai belongs to her; [Yue] is the original form of the Gods' Game, while [Bai] only has the Spider Child as an avatar in her possession.

So she really had never encountered such a high-level deity.

It seems that there are limitations between worlds. Even in the Ark, a world where gods have existed since ancient times and continue to exist, the strongest god she encountered was only a fourth-level god.

There might be others like that, but they don't appear, and she has no way of knowing who they are.

Of course, she was certain that the Type-Moon world next door definitely had God-level 5 and above.

However, since the world consciousness of the Type-Moon universe consists of her friends, she has nothing to worry about.

"Let's go back..."

She was in the universe above Terra, from where she could see Terra and the chaotic expanse beyond.

That's a place she'll need to explore in the future, but since the continent of Terra hasn't been completely conquered yet, she can't be sure how things will turn out in the outside world.

Thinking of going back, she instantly teleported back to the island and stood in the garden in front of her room.

"Hey, you're finally back."

It felt like she had been gone for a long time. The moment she returned, CC and Asuna rushed to her side, looked her over from all angles, and only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that she was alright.

"Mommy~"
