Ark, they took my future seriously

[Skadi saw Carlo take a step back without making a sound, and suddenly realized what had happened to her. Like a frightened little rabbit, she quickly jumped away.]

[But it doesn't matter if she doesn't jump. When Skadi jumped, her left foot accidentally stepped on a piece of gravel, and then her body became unstable and she fell to the ground.]

[Carlo was quick-witted and took a quick step forward, grabbed Skadi's arm, pulled her up, and held her in his arms.]

[Skadi lay in Carlo's arms without saying a word, but her heartbeat was roaring in her ears, and the two of them hugged each other silently in an ambiguous posture.]

[When I hold her slender waist in my arms, I instantly feel a sense of weightlessness in my mind. ]

[Skadi's touch is much better than Carlo imagined.]

[When the moist heat of Skadi's breath hit his chest, Carlo's brain short-circuited for a moment.]

【Skadi X Carlo.jpg】

The system popped up a large picture of Skadi in Carlo's arms.

Seeing this, Carlo couldn't help but cover his face.

I didn't expect that in this deduction, even though I already had Vina, the dog system would still arrange such an ambiguous plot.

Although it was his own decision to pull Skadi who had fallen down just now.

But he couldn't just watch his companion fall in front of him and do nothing.

Skadi is such a big man and a warrior with rich combat experience, but he fell down because of such a small thing.

He wouldn't believe it if it wasn't a plot deliberately arranged by the system.

However, in reality, the system may predict the reaction that Skadi can actually make.

Because at this moment, Skadi, who was far away in Casimir, saw the picture of herself being pulled into Carlo's arms.

I was so shocked by the scene in the picture that I took a step back.

Where is Skadi now?

She could now stand on the edge of the bed.

Now Skadi stepped back like this, her right foot stepped on empty air, and she fell under the bed with a scream.

"Hiss-"

Skadi held her accidentally sprained ankle and took a deep breath.

Looking at herself in the simulation at this time, Skadi actually felt a little angry.

Why is it always the same person?

Why would someone take up her position during the deduction?

But he fell under the bed.

Fortunately, Carlo on the other side is more sensible.

It didn't hurt the real Skadi any more.

If it were in the past, Carlo didn’t know that deduction was an online game.

He wanted to give Skadi some hard work and stir up the innocent little killer whale's mind.

But now Carlo is a serious man.

Although the beauty was in his arms, he just smiled slightly, and very gentlemanly helped Skadi to sit on the stone aside.

[Carlo helped you to a rock on the side, and then asked with concern whether you were injured.]

"I'm so hurt. It hurts so much."

Skadi hugged her aching ankle and shed tears.

Even though her experience made her not care about the pain at all.

But sometimes, pain does not come entirely from the senses, there is also mental pain.

For example, now, she simply compares herself with the deduced self.

The pain in the ankle increased exponentially in an instant.

"It hurts, it hurts so much. Why doesn't anyone in real life care about me?"

Skadi understood the reason behind this, but she still couldn't help but ask.

Back to the deduction.

[Due to the close contact between the two just now, Skadi’s little face was glowing red as he sat on the stone: “I’m sorry, I made you laugh just now. I actually stepped on the pebbles. I must look very stupid. .”]

[“No, everyone is careless sometimes. I should have reminded you earlier.” Carlo comforted. ]

[“It’s none of your business. It’s my own fault.” Thinking of the ambiguous scene just now, Skadi lowered her head. ]

[Carlo looked at the black snowy scenery in the far north and changed the subject: "In the demonic realm, there is no truly safe place."]

[Scadi replied: "Since nowhere is safe, let's not argue about who continues to explore and who returns to the rear. We might as well act together."]

[Carlo turned his head and looked at Skadi in silence, considering the feasibility of the other party's plan.]

[Skadi followed Carlo's gaze and saw that he was staring at his feet. He thought he was thinking about his fall just now.]

[Skadi put on a serious face: "I won't make any mistakes during the battle. You may need me to save you when you are in danger."]

Skadi's fighting ability is obvious to all.

Her presence won't hold Carlo back, and even if Skadi holds him back, isn't that good enough?

With Skadi by my side, I must have spent some of my energy taking care of Skadi during the deduction.

If you go alone, you will definitely exert all your strength.

If he exerts all his strength and distracts himself from taking care of Skadi, it is more likely that he will die suddenly, needless to say, right?

Chapter 149 Carlo, why are you so nice to me?

Casimir.

In a small town hotel.

Skadi climbed back into bed and continued with her deduction.

[After some debate, Carlo decides to continue the mission with you.]

[Two days later, late at night, in Carlo, you were sleeping. You had a strange nightmare. In the nightmare, under the cloudy sky, you were standing on an empty beach, with the ruins of an abandoned city on one side and the dark deep sea on the other. You felt that someone in the sea was calling you, wanting you to throw yourself into the arms of the sea.]

[Do you choose to throw yourself into the embrace of the sea? ]

Skadi is all too familiar with this nightmare.

Because she had had this dream countless times.

Whenever she was overworked or slightly injured, she would dream about things related to the deep sea.

And the second half of this dream also has two endings depending on her choice.

If she chooses to ignore the voice of the ocean and stay on the shore, then sea snakes will run onto the land from the deep sea, and then terrifying fish or sea snakes will appear in reality.

If she chooses to enter the deep sea, she will find herself transformed into a sea heir.

Originally Skadi didn't understand the meaning of this dream.

But after reading the spoilers in the deduction just now, Skadi understood why she had this dream.

That is, the blood of the sea god Ishamara was fused into her body, and ordinary sea gods mistook her for Ishamara. Her dream also represented two possible outcomes for her future.

Either you continue to be entangled by Hai Si, or you become Hai Si.

And she was constantly harassed by Hai Si, which meant that she was destined to not be able to live like an ordinary person.

"I had just become friends with Carlo and I had this nightmare. Is the system reminding me not to dream of living a normal life?"

Skadi's originally good mood was suddenly made gloomy by this nightmare.

Just as Skadi frowned, considering how to end this nightmare.

She was suddenly awakened while she was in the middle of the deduction.

[You stand on the beach hesitating, and at this moment, the dark clouds in the sky are blown away by the sun, and your world suddenly becomes bright.]

[“Skadi? Are you okay?” Carlo woke you up when he saw you sweating profusely and with a painful expression on your face while sleeping.]

[When you wake up, you find that your sleeping bag is like a flood, with sweat all over your body. The sticky sweat messes up your hair and makes it stick to your face.]

[Realizing that Carlo had seen you in such a miserable state, you quickly got out of your sleeping bag, turned your back to Carlo, and without saying a word, quickly folded up the sleeping bag that was stained with your own sweat.]

Unlike the embarrassed self in the simulation, Skadi in reality is focusing on another thing:

"So there is such a way to end the nightmare!"

In the past, nightmares would only end after she made her own choice.

But with Carlo by my side, I can get rid of the nightmare even if I don't make a choice.

Doesn't this mean that Carlo can help her return to a peaceful life?

[Carlo handed you a dry towel: "Wipe the sweat off your head. Sweating so much in such a cold place is not good for your health."]

[“Thank you.” You took Carlo’s dry towel and asked shyly in a low voice: “I looked ugly when I was sleeping just now, didn’t I?”]

Carlo did see what Skadi looked like just now.

Because a picture of Skadi having a nightmare popped up during the deduction.

Skadi in the picture had his brows tightly furrowed, cold sweat pouring out of his forehead like crazy, and he was grinding his teeth fiercely.

To be honest, Skadi's nightmare looks a bit scary, but Skadi is a woman after all.

Even though Carlo was frightened by Skadi's nightmare, he would not embarrass her by saying it, but instead gave a more polite answer:

[“No, you’re very cute. If I hadn’t seen that you might have had a nightmare, I wouldn’t have the heart to wake you up.”]

"Me? Cute? This guy is really good at talking."

Carlo's praise during the deduction made Skadi happy again.

She looked at Carlo's answer, savored it for a moment, and then discovered the hidden meaning behind his words.

If Carlo hadn't seen that she was having a nightmare, he wouldn't have had the heart to wake her up.

Does this mean that Carlo had been staring at her sleeping face?

Why does Carlo keep staring at my sleeping face?

Is it because I'm too cute?

But how could he think I was cute if he didn't look at me first?

Then why did he look at me?

You won't have any other thoughts about me...

Girls are good at imagining, and Skadi is no exception.

Moreover, people like Skadi who have not interacted with many people are better than ordinary people in terms of mental supplementation.

In just a dozen seconds, Skadi guessed from Carlo's polite compliment that he might have other ideas about her.

["I saw that you looked uncomfortable just now. Did you dream about something bad?"]

The time in the simulation suddenly slowed down.

Carlo felt that Skadi's nightmare must be unusual and might involve some key information.

Otherwise, the system would not describe Skadi's nightmare alone.

So in order to understand Skadi's nightmare and to see what the system was doing, Carlo chose to talk to Skadi about her nightmare.

[“Nothing, just a simple nightmare. By the way, did you encounter any strange creatures when you were on guard just now?”]

Skadi was obviously unwilling to answer this nightmare.

Because whether she is a deep-sea hunter or a sea heir, her identity is an outlier to ordinary Terrans.

If Carlo knew that she had Haisi's blood in her body and was an intermediate creature between Haisi and humans, perhaps she would regret becoming friends with her.

However, Skadi obviously underestimated Carlo's cognition.
