The Fox Goddess-Chapter 567 The Dangers of Skadi
Chapter 567 The Dangers of Skadi
If Yuki were still there to hear what she just said, she would probably be thinking of leaving the Town as fast as possible. With that kind of person around especially when she knows her secret of only being a 1-year-old being. But it was still fortunate for her that Skadi didn't know that she was a Fox as she believed that she was really a Vampire, thanks to Momozano. The danger was big, and she wouldn't be taking that risk. Even if she has the advantage of trying to play with mind games and try to manipulate Skadi, Yuki has a feeling that it wouldn't work on such a person like her, and in reality?she doesn't care if Skadi is a 100 Thousand Years Old Vampire, it doesn't matter to her. For Yuki, all of them were still the same.
Just like Alisha, whose more than 10x older than Skadi she still managed to trick her into falling into her trap, and she even managed to see through her plan. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter how old that person is, even if they are so old but have little experience or that they are not exposed to that kind of thing, it is easy to read them. Alisha might be smart for thinking of such a plan, some could even say it was a genius plan, but at the end of the day, it was still full of loopholes.
But on the other hand, Skadi is different, Yuki feels like she is like a hidden Demon that is sleeping in the deepest part of Hell. She is someone you wouldn't want to wake up because if it happen, chaos will truly happen. Even her who has cracked and fooled even the Gods of the Immortal Realm couldn't exactly read what Skadi was thinking, and that was the most terrifying because she felt that Skadi was something more. As a fellow cunning and sly person, she felt that Skadi was the same.
"A Genius will always be smart… but the same thing goes for a Manipulator, but a Manipulator is just a thousand steps ahead of a Genius, after all… they are the ones who are truly a Genius," Yuki remembers the words of the maid that she killed before she fully immersed herself in hell, it was clear as day to her because that was the day when she truly learned how to read people.
"Hey, Yuki. You've been silent ever since you got home, is everything alright?" Fumiko was worried about Yuki after seeing her come home with a cold and indifferent face, it was the thing that she hated. She hates the fact that she can't read what Yuki is thinking so that she can at least help her ease her burdens, she doesn't want her to shoulder all of it on her own. It was her weakness, but also Yuki's attitude of not telling anyone what she was thinking or feeling, she always kept it to herself.
"Ahhh, yes. I'm alright, I was just thinking of ways how make this progress of mine faster. As you know, I'm quite lazy and I don't want to waste my time on useless things, but I'm quite conflicted right now. I'm too lazy to read all of these books before it would literally take me half a day to finish all of them, or if I really took it seriously, 5 hours is enough. But… I'm too lazy to read them. What should I do?" Yuki played it off as if her problem was not anything serious and just put the blame on her laziness which is something Fumiko couldn't refute as she knows this kind of personality that Yuki has.
Yuki didn't say anything about Skadi at all and just showed all of the books that she borrowed from the Library, she even kindly asked for Fumiko's help if she knew any way to make it faster, but of course, Fumiko had no answer to her as there is just no answer.
"Well… it is indeed very troublesome. I mean, even if we have magic now, we can't magically enhance our reading skills, right? Like with just a glance of a book, we would immediately know its content and everything." Fumiko also sighed in regret as she fully believed what Yuki just said to her, especially after seeing the piles of books in front of her.
Fumiko couldn't even believe it because each book had at least a few hundred chapters and the book was so thick that she even had a hard time carrying it with one hand. If she were the one to read this, she thinks that her head would explode just from one single book that was there. She hated reading because it was a waste of time for her, especially if it was just full of words, it was harder for her to focus. That is why she hated doing paperwork when she was the President, so she would sometimes ask for Yuki's help or her assistant to help manage them.
Just remembering those days were there were hundreds of documents that needed her attention was super tiring for her and boring, so she couldn't see herself reading even just one book from the pile. Fumiko was ready for Yuki to ask her to read some of these books to help her so that it would be faster and at the end they would just summarize what they have read so it is more efficient. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝙗𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝙢
"Are you also going to make me read some of them?" Fumiko asked with an annoyed tone as she was already hinting to Yuki that she didn't want to read.
"Hahaha… I know that you hate reading, so just leave this matter to me. Plus what you have just said gave me an idea for creating another Skill that will be very useful." Yuki chuckled as she flicked Fumiko's head in response after hearing the annoyance in her tone. She had already helped her by giving her an idea, so without wasting any more time she simply asked for Fumiko to carry the books back to their room, while she read through her System Shop to see if there was any kind of Skill that was related to what Fumiko said.
But to her disappointment, she found nothing. There was no Skill there that would let her instantly know all the information or contents of a book with just a single glance, which was a shame because she was really hoping for something like that. With left with no more choice, she now has to read them one by one which she was not looking forward to as it would waste a lot of her time. But at least the time duration that was given to her was pretty long, which was one month which is more than enough.
But she is not going to read them first, she is going after her evolution to get it over once and for all.
