Eve's new Party

----------

In the conference room, five of the six squad leaders were present, and Eve was back in her black armor as she sat on her floating silver throne.

''Order: I will explore this country called Roble Holy kingdom myself. And two of you will accompany me.'' Eve said.

Everyone in the room got stunned by Eve's order that came out of nowhere, and Selena, who had a mother and big sister personality created by Eve herself, couldn't help but worry about her beloved leader.

''Eve-sama, may I ask why would you do that? Wouldn't it be dangerous?'' Selena asked with concern.

Eve looks at Selena with grateful eyes, not that Selena could tell. When she was Suzuki, only her father cared about her well-being, having more people care about her was a great feeling.

''Reply: No need to worry, Selena. According to the data Lapis sent me, there is a 99% of probability that we are not in YGGDRASIL, and a 100% probability that this human country is very underdeveloped.''

Again, everyone present, except Lapis, was surprised by the revelation that they might not be in YGGDRASIL.

Seeing everyone agitated, Lapis stands up and clears her throat, catching everyone's attention. She looks at Eve, asking permission to speak, and Eve nods.

''Let me explain everything,'' Lapis said, and with a light touch of her finger, the once dark table got filled with holograms of maps and graphics.

With another light touch, she touches the hologram that was a 3D map and the map grows, taking up all the space on the table, ''As everyone can see, this is the map that was drawn from the mapping that was done by my aircraft. Do any of you recognize this topography?''

Everyone looked at the map and analyzed it, but in the end, no one gave a positive answer to Lapis's question.

''Could this not....just be an undiscovered area? After all...I remember Eve-sama going out to explore..... new locations almost every month.'' Lin said.

At what Lin had said, Eve shivered.

'It was just a hypothesis, but with what Lin said, now I know that they remember my time in YGGDRASIL as if it was real life for them. I need to research this later.' She thought.

''This could have been the case, yes. But the chance of that turns out to be almost non-existent after the information gathering we got on the human fort.'' Lapis replied.

''Enola, could you, in your own words, describe how you felt when you saw the situation at the Fort?'' Lapis said as she looked at Enola, who jumps up in her chair like a cat when suddenly called.

Enola scratched her cheek with her finger and answered hesitantly, ''Erm, how can I say it, it was.....disappointing I guess? The fort was poorly made, out of ten raids, they would be raided easily ten times, the facilities of the fort were really poor as if it were a home for beggars, and the guards were proportionately poor in equipment and training. In my estimation of the strength of the fort, even a C2216 could easily invade and take over the entire fort.''

Eve got dumbfounded as she heard Enola. She knew they were weak as she had read the report, but she didn't know they were THAT weak.

Eve momentarily closes her eyes to remember the C2216 series robots, and the image of a five-foot silver robot with six strong claw-like arms pops into her mind. A C2216 is a helper robot that looks like a six-armed beetle, which with its great strength in its six arms, helps carry heavy loads.

'If Enola is right, then I severely overestimated them.' Eve thought.

''Thank you, Enola. With that, I can conclude that this country called the Roble Holy Kingdom is not part of an unknown area, or rather, it is an unknown area but of another world. Of course, I couldn't guess that with just this information. I concluded this after putting together all the information gathered since we were teleported, such as the amount of mana present in the atmosphere, marine life, the discovery of this country as well as its possible strength, and I even checked the DNA of the humans that we found in the fort with the DNA of the humans that we have on Alpha Prime, and the result was that their DNA is 95% the same as the humans on Alpha Prime, that is, as much as they are almost alike, they are still different.'' Lapis said.

She then turns her face to Eve and smiles, ''And obviously Eve-sama already knew all this before me, but still she let me be helpful and let me explain the situation, as expected of Eve-sama!''

Everyone else agrees with Lapis in their own way, and Eve cringes internally.

'Where do they get this trust in me?! I have not analyzed any of this information! I just know it's not YGGDRASIL because I know all the existing maps as well as modder-created expansion maps!' She thought.

''I see..... as weak as they are, if we are in another world and not YGGDRASIL, we need to be more careful, we don't know what lurks out there,'' Selena comments thoughtfully.

''Enemies....of unknown strength...?!'' Kanon, who was lying on the table depressed, raised her head abruptly with stars in her eyes.

Eve is startled by this sudden burst of euphoria and looks at Kanon strangely, 'What the hell is wrong with her?'

Kanon looked excited, her cheeks were flushed and puffy and she had a small smile on her face.

It was then that Eve remembered Kanon's personality.

'Right, I remember now. I created Kanon to be a battle maniac who is unexpectedly a cute little girl, a contrast that at the time I thought was funny. She must have been bored when I sent her on the scouting mission.' Eve thought.

''Order: Now that everyone is aware of the situation we find ourselves in, I'm going to create a small exploration group, with me as the leader. Our goal will be to get more information about the world in which we are disguised as humans in that human country. We don't want conflict for now, because as Selena said, we don't know what lurks in the shadows.'' Eve said.

When Eve finished speaking, everyone instantly threw up their hands, wanting to be part of Eve's party.

Eve looked at the scene with a poker face, she knew something like this would happen, what she did not know is why everyone wanted to go.

'I want to have a date with Eve-sama!' Lily thought euphorically while waving her hand in excitedly.

'Possible new foods.....' Enola thought with a little drool coming out of her mouth.

'Please choose me, I'm so bored! I want to go out and explore!' Selena thought as she prayed.

'Fighting alongside Eve-sama.....is the greatest honor I could ask for....' Lin thought with stars in her eyes.

'Kukuku...! New organisms....new experiences....!' Lapis Lazuli thought with a slightly distorted expression.

''Order: Lapis, Selena, I'm sorry but I can't take you. As the intelligence and healing leaders respectively, I need you on Alpha Prime, I can't afford to lose you two.'' Eve said.

Lapis and Selena lower their arms dejectedly, and Eve sighs.

''Question: I promise I'll bring you souvenirs and anything else you want, is that enough for you two?''

Selena and Lapis instantly light up and agree to Eve's suggestion.

'Honestly, it feels like I'm dealing with children. Well, they are my children in one way or another.' Eve thought with a small smile.

She then closed her eyes for a few seconds, and after making up her mind, she opened her eyes.

''Order: Lily and Lin, you two will accompany me on this expedition.''

The moment she made her decision, Lin held back her euphoria not to be disrespectful in front of Eve, but unlike her, Lily started happily hopping around like a rabbit while humming a victory hymn.

Eve chose Lin and Lily purely out of gamer reasoning. Unfortunately, she can't take Selena and Lapis with her, who would be useful in the field. In that case, she chose Lily because of her really strong defense and her bright, outgoing personality, which would facilitate interaction with the citizens of that unknown world, and chose Lin because she is the strongest in hand-to-hand combat, while she is a long-distance fighter.

Kanon and Enola, who were also not chosen, became even more depressed than Lapis and Selena, and Eve again sighs.

Eve gets internally conflicted for a few seconds, then she huffed and said, ''Order: Kanon, Enola, I also have a mission for you two. I want you to go to the Roble Kingdom in secret and hunt down whatever monsters you think are worth researching.''

Hearing Eve's orders, the two stood up and saluted with smiles on their faces, '' Yes, Eve-sama!''

Eve looks at her squad leaders, and seeing all of them happy, she feels a little perplexed, 'Yeah, I do feel like a mother trying to please her children.' She thought.
