Skadi, returning to infinity

He is an important person to him.

After all, Skadi has a lot to do in the next few years, up until the time of "Theresia's death".

This is just the beginning; she will likely be away from Babel for a long time to come.

Without her by her side, Skadi would have a hard time guaranteeing Theresa and the others' safety.

"Perhaps... we can consider bringing Hanabi and Losia."

Originally, they planned to wait inside the Tower of Babel for a while, until the time was right, before sending Losia and Hanabi to the Tower of Babel under different pretexts.

But now, it seems that this plan can be brought forward, allowing the two of them to join the Tower of Babel.

This way, she would have two more helpers and could also gain more influence within the Tower of Babel.

Having only been here a short time, the idea of ​​bringing strangers into the Tower of Babel might cause some people to gossip.

"Go find Princess Theresa."

Skadi pondered this matter the whole way, while Kal'tsit, having obtained the [Thunder Queen] ability, had already started playing with it.

She could clearly sense that this was a special ability completely different from Originium Arts, which made her increasingly curious about the origin of this ability.

Looking back at Skadi, Kal'tsit saw her deep in thought and remained silent.

The others, however, waited outside the cave for a while before hearing a tremendous commotion inside.

Without permission, they dared not go in and could only linger outside.

However, after waiting for a while without any further movement, they all became restless, worried that the Doctor and Kal'tsit might be harmed inside.

After a while, when some people were getting impatient and wanted to go in, Skadi and her friend came out one after the other, which put their minds at ease.

"It seems like nothing's wrong."

Despite making such a commotion, nothing happened at all.

Not only was Kal'tsit unharmed, but the Doctor's clothes were also undamaged.

This is amazing! They were very curious about what had happened.

Compared to this, the relationship between the Doctor and Kal'tsit seems to be more intriguing.

The way Dr. Kal'tsit looked at the Doctor just now... something must have happened, right?

The group returned to the Tower of Babel, each with their own thoughts, and disbanded without doing anything.

Kal'tsit and Skadi went side by side to Theresa's room, and after receiving the princess's permission, they opened the door and went inside.

"Is the mission complete?"

Theresa looked at the two of them from her swivel computer chair, a smile on her face.

"Hmm, Your Highness, this mission..."

Kal'tsit recounted what had happened, and then she demonstrated the superpower she had gained.

"Oh, a special ability."

She gave Skadi a meaningful look. Kal'tsit might suspect Skadi, but as someone involved, she couldn't see things too clearly at the moment.

Theresa, on the other hand, didn't need to think so much. After hearing Kal'tsit's words, she looked at Skadi and already understood her thoughts.

"So that spacetime rift has been temporarily eliminated?"

Instead of exposing Skadi's true colors, Theresa asked Skadi about the [Energy Conversion Window].

"Yes, Your Highness Theresa, it has been temporarily destroyed, but it will reappear in other places later."

Having received an affirmative answer, Theresa lowered her eyes slightly and sighed.

"Such dangerous things should never appear again in places where humans live."

"Otherwise, it could easily lead to a large-scale infection of Originium."

She didn't want to see that happen; it would be a disaster for everyone.

"Then let's work hard to find a solution to Oripathy."

"With me and Dr. Kal'tsit here, we can assemble a strong enough medical team to research Oripathy."

Skadi proposed a plan that would later become Rhodes Island's specialty.

The Tower of Babel is only in its early stages and is far from reaching its future scale.

But starting now will at least give them more time and opportunities for the future.

"This is a good idea, but we still don't have enough doctors."

"The number of doctors who can come to us is limited, unless we can gain control of a larger area."

Theresa wasn't hinting; she was stating it explicitly.

If the goal is to acquire more doctors, expanding the Tower of Babel's control is the most effective approach.

"Well, it's not the Rhodes Island era yet, so we can't position ourselves as a neutral force and let people from different regions come here."

"We still need Kazdel's people to help us, and that also depends on His Highness's influence."

"Has Your Highness considered which region you intend to regain control of next?"

This plan was indeed the best solution at the moment, and Skadi accepted it immediately, then began asking what area she wanted to occupy.

"The area we can currently occupy is here..."

Theresa drew it on the map, and compared to the entire Kazdel, the area they occupied was really small.

"But before that, we need to deal with something."

After saying that, Theresa took out a file and handed it to Skadi and Dr. Kal'tsit.

"This is... an invitation from Lungmen? Lungmen people are involved in our war?"

Kal'tsit and Skadi were puzzled upon seeing the invitation.

"No, it's an invitation for the two of you doctors to go to Longmen."

"It is said that there is something important that requires your help."

"Whether you go or not is up to you; I won't force you."

Theresa looked at Kal'tsit and Skadi and left the decision to them.

[The quest triggered by the agent: A Journey to Lungmen. Perhaps a trip to Lungmen would be a good way to relax? No fixed objective; the quest will be completed upon completion.]

This all depends on the agent's experience in Lungmen. Mission Rewards: 4000 Willpower, 500 Achievement Points.

Strangely, after Theresa said that, Skadi actually triggered the corresponding quest.

This made her think. Lungmen was still six or seven years away from the chaos of the Reunion Movement.

Has something happened there?

Although they weren't entirely sure, Skadi and Kelsey decided to accept the invitation anyway.

However, Skadi had one request before that.

P.S.: I updated yesterday and went to sleep. When I woke up in the evening and saw the announcements in the backend and the group, I felt a little bad.

Then I just couldn't muster any energy, so I simply went to bed at 10 pm and got up to write again at 9 am today.

With this routine adjusted, I can happily write again.

PS2: Update 1/10

Chapter 23: I Have Very Few Operators

Let's assign this child an identity.

Skadi summoned Loshia and had her float behind her before looking at Theresia.

"I'll be fine as long as I'm by Skadi's side."

Losia's gaze was fixed solely on Skadi, not on anyone else.

"Sweetie, we're going out on a mission this time, and we need someone to guard this place."

"You are the person I trust the most here."

There's also Kaguya, but once Kaguya is summoned, Skadi basically has no way to use her abilities.

Maintaining the summoning of her consumes too much energy; her current mana regeneration is not yet sufficient to summon Kaguya-hime without any loss for an extended period.

Moreover, compared to Loshia, Princess Kaguya is not as obedient.

"...But I am not by Skadi's side, and given the world's wariness of her, I cannot guarantee her safety."

Theresa and Kal'tsit listened to their conversation, and after hearing Loshia say "the world's wariness of Skadi," they both opened their eyes...

Her eyes got bigger.

"What does this mean? Is the world wary of you?"

Kal'tsit looked around, closed the window, turned on the light, and asked solemnly.

"Yes, although I used the [Time-Space Key] to reverse this world and return to a certain point in time to start over."

"But what I do is observable to those higher beings."

“Even though they were also subjected to time reversal, unlike us, they are aware of it.”

"And someone like me, a special individual, is someone they want to focus on observing."

"However, they still can't determine who did it, so I can't use too many special abilities."

“If I use it too much, they will completely lock down my identity.”

"That will make things difficult."

Skadi nodded. There was no need to hide this from them; explaining it to them would save them from overthinking.

"No wonder......"

Kal'tsit then realized why someone as powerful as Skadi hadn't easily conquered this world with her strength.
