When Daniel mentioned her sister, Isabella's face turned serious. She looked at him again, but this time her gaze was unusually intense.

"It seems you've already realized the value my sister has to me," she said, her voice laced with a mix of surprise and perhaps even a bit of acknowledgment.

After saying this, Isabella suddenly stretched in front of Daniel. Though she was wearing a thin veil, the slight reveal of her figure only served to highlight her perfect physique.

But despite the allure of her movement, Daniel's expression remained completely unchanged, like a block of ice. Isabella sighed helplessly upon seeing Daniel's unchanged demeanor.

"Fine, fine, at this point, do I still have a choice?" she muttered to herself. "Crossbridge, tell me—was all of this part of your plan from the beginning?"

Daniel didn't answer the question. Isabella didn't press him further, instead giving a resigned wave of her hand.

"Anyway, I will be ready," she said, her tone softening. "If you need my help, don't hesitate to tell me."

Daniel nodded slightly and, with a flash of movement, disappeared from in front of Isabella. However, instead of leaving the Time Corridor, he reappeared in front of Karlbira.

At this moment, Karlbira was slowly starting to regain consciousness. But when she saw Daniel appear, she couldn't help but furrow her brows.

"Daniel, what exactly have you done to me?" she asked, her voice full of suspicion.

Karlbira could clearly sense that her body had undergone certain changes, and there was no doubt that these changes were caused by Daniel. After all, no one else could enter this cursed place besides him.

In response to Karlbira's question, Daniel raised his hand and waved it twice.

"Don't misunderstand," he said firmly. "I didn't do anything to you. I just borrowed a bit of your power."

Karlbira nodded. She knew Daniel had borrowed some of her divine power.

Meanwhile, Daniel was observing Karlbira's fate. Her fate still showed involvement in the synthesis of a certain God Rank Skill Compendium. Although the Clock of Fate didn't reveal the specific God Rank Skill, Daniel's intuition told him it was likely the Infinity Possibility skill.

But up until now, Daniel still hadn't found a way for Karlbira to contribute effectively.

Would continuing with this process allow Kartora and Karlbira to truly help him?

On the other side, Karlbira was quietly observing Daniel. Since Daniel hadn't made any attempt to hide his strength, she could clearly sense that Daniel had now become a very powerful Fake God.

She looked at him with a mix of surprise and curiosity.

"I never expected this," she said, astonished. "Your strength has already surpassed mine. I think it won't be long before you can directly control me and force me to merge with Kartora, right?"

"This was your goal all along, wasn't it?"

Upon hearing this, Daniel shook his head gently.

"If that's how you see me, then I'm sorry, you've misunderstood. In fact, I've given up on the idea of merging you with Kartora."

"Neither you nor Kartora should become sacrifices, so I will definitely find a solution that works for both of you."

"But before that, I need to borrow your strength."

"You can refuse, of course, but your refusal won't change much."

Karlbira, however, didn't seem concerned about whether Daniel would control her. Instead, she focused all her attention on the words Daniel had just spoken.

Wait, did he just say that he wouldn't merge her with Kartora?

Was he lying, or did he really mean it?

A thoughtful look appeared in Karlbira's eyes. But soon, she realized something. There was no reason for Daniel to lie to her in this situation—he had no need to deceive her.

So… Daniel truly means it?

With that realization, Karlbira's gaze toward Daniel became more complex.

"So… Daniel, although I know you probably don't care, I still want to thank you," she said sincerely.

Daniel didn't expect Karlbira to thank him, and he paused for a moment. Then, a faint smile appeared on his face.

"It's nothing," he said, shrugging. "After all, we're friends, aren't we?"

Karlbira blinked, then smiled lightly, a soft blush tinting her cheeks. When she looked at Daniel again, her expression no longer held the bitterness it had before. Instead, there was an unspoken sentiment, something deeper and harder to define.

"Yes, we're friends. So I'll help," she said, her voice tinged with sincerity.

Daniel nodded, then, with another flash of movement, left the Time Corridor and returned to the real world.

Standing before the Ice of Possibility, Daniel remained cautious. He didn't immediately place the ice shard into his storage space but instead recorded the coordinates at this location.

Daniel planned to collect the ice fragment in the safest way possible. He intended to use a clone and, with the God of Thieves' dagger, replicate the ice shard as many times as necessary. Then, he would immediately work on synthesizing the Infinity Possibility skill scroll.

According to the results of his Mental Deduction, this process shouldn't take too long.

Even so, Daniel couldn't help but wonder whether this action would provoke the attention of some terrifying existence.

But no matter what, even if such an entity appeared, Daniel had already synthesized Infinity Possibility. A skill ranked highly among the God Rank skills—one that likely possessed unimaginable power.

Perhaps even against a god-tier entity, this would allow him to gain some control over the situation.

As Daniel pondered, his thoughts involuntarily turned to Kartora. Up to now, Daniel still hadn't found any trace of Kartora. So, would this synthesis of Infinity Possibility truly be a result of Kartora and Karlbira working together?

Although their fates indicated that they had indeed participated in the synthesis of a God Rank Skill, it wasn't clear whether it was specifically Infinity Possibility. Could it be another God Rank Skill scroll?

Daniel scratched his head, then decisively shook his head.

No, that's not it!

According to my intuition, they were definitely involved in the synthesis of the Infinity Possibility skill scroll. This intuition has no room for error.

So… when will they show up?

Or perhaps… have I changed Kartora's fate in the past?

But… these are just possibilities for now.
