----------

Roble Holy Kingdom is a religious country that was founded 200 years after the catastrophe known as the reign of terror of the Evil Deities. Its land is divided into north and south halves by the sea, but the halves are not completely separate; rather, a gigantic bay, 200 kilometers long and 40 kilometers wide, made its geography look like a U turned on its side. For this reason, some refer to them as different nations; the "Northern Holy Kingdom" and "Southern Holy Kingdom."

At a large gate leading to the Northern Royal Capital of Roble Kingdom, the guard at this very gate was looking suspiciously at three people who were trying to enter.

It was a trio made up of girls.

There was a girl with two big double ponytail braids wearing a maid dress; a little girl with long silver-white hair who was wearing a white one-piece dress, and a short-haired blonde girl who was dressed with a set of hard leather clothes and, on her chest, arms and legs she wore red pieces of armor that looked expensive, she also wore an eyepatch over her left eye and from her temper, looked like an experienced mercenary or bodyguard.

A maid, a mercenary who appears to be experienced, and a little girl who appears to be a noblewoman, but without any carriages, or other servants, just the three of them.

'This is suspicious....' The guard thought as he glared at them.

A moment later, he felt a powerful gaze on him, and looking down a little, he saw that the little silver-haired girl was staring at him without changing her expression.

*Stare...*

'Oho? Now this is interesting, is this little girl trying to intimidate me? Kuku! Not bad, you've got guts, but kids are no match for adults, little girl!' He thought with a smirk, and sharpening his gaze, even more, he stared back at her.

*Stare...*

Eve, who was just trying to say something but couldn't because of her sociability problem, was confused as to why the guard was staring at her so intently.

'Eh? Did I do something wrong? But I haven't done anything at all yet! Could they have discovered us? No, that's impossible!' Eve thought confused.

As Eve was too busy wondering if they were discovered, she continued to stare at the guard without realizing it, and the guard also continued to stare at her.

Lily, who was on Eve's right, was watching this interaction with interest and amusement, while Lin, who was on her left, was internally rooting for Eve, who for some reason got into a staring contest.

With each passing second, Eve grew more and more nervous, so Lily, who was holding back her laughter at the awkward situation of the two of them staring at each other, breaks the tense atmosphere.

''Ehem! Sorry, Sir Guard, but we need to get in!'' Lily said, catching the guard's attention.

The guard looked at Lily and raised his eyebrow, he still didn't let his guard down, it didn't matter to him if they were three cute girls, he would do his job perfectly until the end.

''If you want to come in, you need to show me your IDs.'' He replied dryly.

Lily wouldn't admit defeat either, so, with a cute pose, her eyes started to tear up, and making a sad expression that would make even demons feel sorry for her, she looked deep into the guard's eyes, making him waver a little.

''Uweeeh?! Do we need to show our IDs to get in?! Even though we've been robbed of our belongings?'' Lily said while whimpering.

Eve looked at Lily in perplexion, and Lin just kept quiet since her companions warned her before going on the mission not to speak or do anything unless Eve told her to, as she was very susceptible to misunderstandings and creating confusion.

'I had no idea she was this good at acting, maybe I should create a movie theater on Alpha Prime and put her to do some drama movies...' Eve thought in surprise.

'No...I must not waver! Be an exemplary man and soldier!' The soldier thought, strengthening his resolve.

''Were you robbed? And what about this mercenary here? She still has her expensive armor on and doesn't look hurt at all, not to mention there's not a hint of dirt on the three of you. If you were robbed, there would certainly be at least some signs of fight or flight.'' The soldier replied as he pointed at Lin.

This time it was Lily's turn to waver, after all, he was completely right.

The soldier grinned as he saw that he'd nailed it when he saw Lily's expression.

'Hehe, got you!' He thought

Suddenly, Lily drops to her knees on the floor and starts crying like a child.

''H-How cruel of you! W-We just wanna enter so that my little mistress can have her baptism in the church of the four great gods! How cruel! Uwaaa!!''

At this point, Eve, Lin, the people in line who were waiting to get in, and even the other soldiers were looking at this situation with dead eyes.

'The lack of shame is strong in this one.' Eve thought as she looked at Lily crying.

Getting tired of this situation, Eve sighs, and with a movement that goes unnoticed by everyone, a small bag of gold coins appears in her hand, and in the blink of an eye, she takes the guard's hand, places the bag in his palm and with her other hand she holds his hand underneath, making it look like she was simply holding his hands with both of her hands.

''Question: Here is our ID. I think that's enough, right, Sir Guard?''

The guard, who still had a serious face, is startled by how quickly the little girl took his hand, but then he wiggles his fingers and feels the number of coins inside the bag, his face, before serious, forms a silly smile.

''Aya! Of course, it's enough, little missy! I wish you good luck with your baptism!'' He responds with a big smile.

'The lack of shame is also strong on this one.' Eve thought as she glared at the guard with contempt, but the guard didn't seem to care, all his attention seemed to be on the bag of gold in his hands.

The guard let the three of them enter, and Lily, who was on the floor, got up depressed, as she hadn't been able to be useful.

She followed Eve and Lin from behind with her head down and a black cloud over her head.

''Fish! Fresh fish! Only thirty coppers a kilo!''

''Fresh and healthy fruit! Fresh and healthy fruit! You there miss, don't you want to buy fruit?''

''Missy, missy! Do you want a flower? Just one copper!''

''Donate to the church! The gods have blessed those who give!''

Eve, Lily, and Lin were walking along one of the capital's streets after entering the city. The city was full of people, whether vendors, nobles, priests, or children.

Lily and Lin didn't seem interested, and Eve, who looked completely unaffected on the outside, was excited on the inside.

'A fantasy city...so exciting!' She thought with sparkling eyes.

''So....where are we going, Eve-sama?'' Lily asked from the side.

Eve get startled as she got suddenly called and gave a little scared jump, making Lily giggle.

'Damn, I was too focused on looking around and I ended up scaring myself like a little kid....shame on me....' Eve thought as she blushed a little.

'Kakakaka! Eve-sama got very different after we were teleported, now she is so much fun to tease!' Lily thought.

'Hm. Very Cute...' Lin thought with a nod.

Eve cleared her throat, and said while ignoring Lily's teasing gaze, ''Order: If we want information, we must go to a bar, or, if there is one, an adventurer's guild.''

'Please have an adventurer's guild!' Eve prayed internally.

It's the dream of any anime and gaming enthusiast to be part of an adventurer's guild, and with her, it's no different.

''Guild.....? Do you mean that, Eve-sama?'' Lin said as he pointed to a building just ahead.

Eve and Lily looked to where Lin pointed and saw a really big building, and just above the entrance, there was a large, beautifully carved wooden sign, and on it, it said ''Adventurer's Guild''.

Eve looked up at the building and felt like she saw a deity.

'The Adventurer's Guild.....really exists.....'

''Order: Let's go there right now!''

Eve took Lily and Lin's hands and quickly led them toward the building.

'So exciting!' Eve thought with stars in her eyes.
