Marvel: Saint Seiya Starting with the Reality Stone.

"Because Heidi is my family."

"If she's happy, I'm happy."

“This is my love, Mary.”

"Simple and direct."

"..."

Skye heard Mike's profound understanding of love.

She couldn't help but swallow hard, looking at Mike: "So you want me to leave S.H.I.E.L.D. so you can help my mother take revenge on S.H.I.E.L.D. and even all of humanity?"

Mike laughed heartily.

“Mary, I just said that.”

Love is both simple and complex.

"I just hate trouble, so I chose to simplify love."

"But no matter whether love is simple or complex, one thing remains unchanged."

"what?"

Skye asked instinctively.

Mike stood with his hands in his pockets, looking at Skye with a serious expression.

"You can't love S.H.I.E.L.D. at the same time as your mother who was deeply hurt by S.H.I.E.L.D.."

"Perhaps you think that the two can coexist."

"But that's not the case."

"At the very least, this isn't love for your mother."

"It will only fuel your mother's hatred for S.H.I.E.L.D. and humanity, because your love for S.H.I.E.L.D. and humanity will only intensify that hatred."

"..."

69. The significance of time travelers!

Can Skye love S.H.I.E.L.D.?

of course can.

Is Skye able to love her mother?

Of course you can.

But once the variable of S.H.I.E.L.D. harming her mother was added, everything changed.

At least for Skye.

She couldn't love S.H.I.E.L.D. at the same time love her mother, who had been deeply hurt by S.H.I.E.L.D.

This will only make Jia Ying even angrier.

Even when Skye says a good word about S.H.I.E.L.D. in front of Jia Ying, Jia Ying's hatred for S.H.I.E.L.D. and even for humanity intensifies.

In Jia Ying's view, if S.H.I.E.L.D. hadn't forcibly abducted her and taken her child away, causing her to suffer so much, she would still be with her child and witness every important moment of Skye's growth.

This is why, in the original storyline, Jia Ying developed murderous intent towards Sky after Sky's repeated persuasion.

In a word.

The child has already recognized the thief as his father.

Skye might not see it that way, but in Jia Ying's eyes, Skye's behavior in the original storyline was no different from recognizing a thief as one's father.

and so--

Since Mike has chosen to get involved in this matter, he will not stand idly by and watch the tragedy repeat itself.

He has never liked tragedies, whether in his first life or this one. Even when watching TV series or movies, he fast-forwards through any tragic scenes.

Because Mike prefers comedy to tragedy.

The most important thing.

Isn't that the very meaning of time travel?

Let the regrets that have already occurred disappear.

Let's prevent such tragedies from happening again.

As for the Skye family's situation, the simplest solution is what he just told Skye.

"That's why I hesitated a bit before you came."

“Mary.”

"But after thinking about it, this is your own business. I can give you advice after I tell you, because you are my friend, but I can't make the decision for you."

"If you choose your parents, then leave S.H.I.E.L.D., stay by your mother's side, and use your actions and love to dissolve the hatred your mother feels for humanity."

"Forget about Hydra, they deserve to die."

"Or you can continue to choose S.H.I.E.L.D., but you will need to give up your parents, for the reasons I just explained."

"You can't love S.H.I.E.L.D. at the same time as your parents who suffered from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s disasters, even if it was Hydra that captured them back then. But who made Hydra use the S.H.I.E.L.D. name?"

"If anyone's to blame, it's S.H.I.E.L.D. for not discovering Hydra hiding among them earlier."

In short.

Mike paused at the end, looked at Skye on the sofa with her head down and her fists clenched tightly, and said calmly, "There is actually another reason why I suggested you leave S.H.I.E.L.D."

Skye looked up instantly, and her eyes were already red-rimmed.

"It's just asking you to leave S.H.I.E.L.D., not cutting off your contact with Coulson and Fitz. There's something called a telephone and something called video. That's why I'm suggesting you leave S.H.I.E.L.D. and return to your family. After all, I know how much you long for your home, Mary."

After saying that, Mike stopped talking about it and turned to walk towards the stairs leading to the second floor: "Coulson is right outside the door, Mary. You can choose to leave with Coulson, whom you consider to be your new family, or you can choose to stay. I'll take you to see your parents tomorrow."

That's all.

Mike's figure disappeared from Skye's sight after he went up the stairs.

Skye sat on the sofa, staring at the direction Mike had just disappeared, motionless, without even blinking.

About ten minutes later.

Skye's eyes suddenly twitched.

next second.

She took a deep breath, wiped her face with both hands, then got up from the sofa and walked towards the door without showing any expression.

At that moment, Coulson was outside, leaning against his Laura car, arms crossed, looking at the house in front of him.

Just then.

The door opened, and Skye came out of the room.

Seeing this, Coulson went to meet him.

Skye.

“Phil…”

Skye looked at Coulson, who was approaching her, and before Coulson could speak, she said, "I need to take some time off."

Upon hearing this, Coulson paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Of course, how about a month?"

Anyway, their team has now gone underground.

Moreover, this time they don't need to capture John Gatler anymore. Without John Gatler causing trouble, Coulson's team can simply remain silent like the other hidden SHIELD teams.

Skye listened to Coulson's suggested vacation, her lips twitched, and then she shook her head, saying, "A month might not be enough, Phil."

Seeing this, Coulson looked at Skye's expression.

Skye, you…

Can I apply for remote work?

Skye stated her plan directly, saying to Coulson, "My expertise will allow me to assist you even when I'm not with Airbus."

Coulson couldn't help but look at Skye after hearing her words.

Skye, you…

"I can't say right now."

Skye knew what Coulson wanted to ask, and immediately interrupted him by shaking her head, saying, "But I don't know how to say it right now. There are some things I need to see for myself to know."

Coulson opened his mouth.

“Mike…”

"Kyle would never lie to me about my family."

Skye's trust in Mike in this matter remained unchanged. She then took a deep breath and said to Coulson, "Give me some time, Phil. I promise I'll contact you once I see the answer to this question myself."

Coulson opened his mouth, looked at Skye who had made a serious decision, remained silent for a moment, and then nodded.

“I’ll wait for your call, Skye.”

"Thank you, Phil."

"Remember to call when you get home."

"I will."

Skye finally smiled when she heard Coulson's words. Then, looking at Coulson, whom she regarded as her father, she couldn't help but step forward and hug him.

Coulson looked at Skye, who was hugging him, and his smile was as gentle as ever. He also reached out and hugged Skye back.

Ten minutes later.

Skye watched as Coulson drove the red Laura car out of her sight.

after awhile.

Skye turned and went back inside.
