(A/N: I've already explained that this is an AU and not the original Nier: Automata. I've only watched the Nier: Automata anime, after all. However, after one of the readers mentioned the Kingdom of the Night in a comment and suggested that choosing Nier: Automata as the home world might not be a good idea, I did some research and found the lore linking Drakengard to Nier: Automata.
Of course, I went and watched it, and I found too many plot connections to reach Nier: Automata. I almost felt like I didn't want to write this novel anymore. LOL.
(*  ̄︿ ̄)
And I agree that it's not a good idea to choose the Nier world as the main world. That's why I decided to change my approach to Lucia and her family's main world. I will delete the original path of coming down from Drakengard. Yes, I will delete it. I only care about 2B, White, and the androids from Nier. I don't care about how it all began. I will only use what I want to add from the origin.)
After climbing down from the mountain Saeko group didn't see any machine life forms. It seems they were all destroyed by Lucia but that's only around here. They know they will meet after they leave here.
(General POV)
The girls walked while looking at their surroundings. The android girls didn't notice, but many maso energies were flowing everywhere. Saeko, Esdeath, and Rika could see them with their own eyes. They looked at each other and nodded in understanding.
'The disease that infected humans before the Gestalt project started must be related to this.' They thought.
"So, where are you traveling to?"
"Hmm… how about coming to our bunker? That can also count as traveling after, plus everyone would be happy to see humans once again."
Rika asked, and Rose responded. But Rose misunderstands something here. The three wives of their creator were not human anymore. Of course, the girls won't bother telling them about that.
"I want to see what the bunker of resistance groups looks like," Rika said and Saeko nodded in agreement. They had seen adult Lily's bunker and her subordinate in the anime, but now it wasn't in the anime timeline. So, it's interesting to find out what kind of things might be different from the anime.
"I want to know as well!" A2 shouted and the rest giggled and started to chat happily. Like that, they were walking toward Rose's resistance camp.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the YoRHa Base, all androids had their bedrooms. Even though they didn't need to sleep, as creations similar to humans, they had to act like humans did. That's why each android had a bedroom with a name tag outside the door.
Each bedroom was a small, white room with dim lighting. Even the commanding room had subdued lighting. They believed that excessive brightness wasn't necessary, and only a little light was enough to see things. Most of the soldiers wore blindfolds, which provided them with a clear vision and checked all kinds of details. Therefore, they considered excessive lighting unnecessary.
When walked into the bedroom, there was a bookshelf on the left side, and next to it was a screen with a keyboard on the wall. Beyond that was the bed, with cloth chests placed on the ceiling. On the left side of the bed, there was a window with a view of space, and in front of it was a desk and a chair.
Now, Lucia and White were in that small bedroom. Lucia was sitting on the left side of the bed, and White was sitting on the floor, kneeling while facing Lucia.
"Mother... I'm sorry. I lied about the last humans being on the moon..." White expected Lucia to be mad at her, bowing her head down, and waiting for a scolding, but surprisingly, Lucia was not angry.
"I see..." was all Lucia said.
White felt a touch on her shoulder and raised her head to look at her creator. Lucia was smiling gently and helped her stand up as she stood. Their heights were not much different. Lucia looked into White's beautiful, bright, light-gray eyes with her red eye and said, "I don't mind you lying to me. After all, you are doing all this for other androids, aren't you?"
"How..."
White was shocked that Lucia had seen through her. Lucia hugged her gently and patted her back.
"It's okay. I'm here now. There's no need for you to shoulder this burden alone. You can cry if you want to. It's suffocating to endure alone, isn't it?"
*Sob*
*Sob*
"Waaa... m-mother... it's... I'm trying my best... all the humans are gone... aliens invaded... sob I even killed my kind... all for my kind as well... I'm tired... mother... I'm really tired..."
*Sob*
*Sob*
White hugged Lucia tightly. She was crying and expressing all her emotions to the pillar she had finally found. Lucia knew that even though White looked stern, cold, and could make cruel decisions on the outside, she was an android who cared for her kind. White knew how humans died and didn't know what to do at that time.
Androids were created just to help humans. Helping humans was their core purpose as androids and their pride. However, the extinction of humans devastated all androids at that time. They even blamed Devola and Popola-type androids, who were positioned to help with the Project Gestalt.
She also somehow became the commander of YoRHa, and she knew the battles they were fighting were meaningless. She lied to all androids, telling them that humans were staying at the moon base, waiting for their victory. Androids were motivated, and their lost purpose of 'Protecting humans' resurfaced as their purpose changed to 'Take back the world from aliens.' They had been fighting for humans against machine life forms for thousands of years.
Some androids found out the real truth about humans, but White schemed to kill those who knew the truth and deleted their memories, so the androids' purpose would not disappear. It was taboo to kill other androids, and humans, the creators of androids, had established that rule.
Unlike other androids, she had memories of thousands of years and was very close to human beings, which is why she felt more guilt than normal androids.
"I'm proud of you, little White... You endured all these things for the sake of androids."
[White: Affection - 70%] (+60%)
Of course, Lucia already added white when she saw her from the communication tool and unlike other girls she had 10% affection as soon as was added, even though she hadn't met Lucia yet.
Lucia comforted White as she whispered sweet words and continued to hug her. White's affections also slowly rose."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Suddenly, a massive iron fist was thrown toward the girl Shallotte, causing the ground to crack.
*Boom!*
The enormous machine life form with massive hands that had just tried to smash the android turned to look at the android girl it had seemingly smashed. It thought the girl was dead, but she had already teleported to another location, swiftly dispatching other machine life forms.
"I'm not an android, you piece of scrap!"
"Zekken, Mukyuu Sandan!"
A black laser beam shot forth from Saeko's long katana, reducing all the machine life forms in its path to dust. Saeko, Esdeath, and Rika, along with the android girls, had reached the flat land after leaving the mountain range. Shortly after their arrival, they encountered the machine life forms. However, before the girls could join the fight, Saeko and Esdeath rushed forward to confront the enemy. Rika instructed the android girls to relax and observe.
"Wow... it was like the Satellite laser from HQ, but with a black color," A2 remarked, and 21S nodded in agreement. They both turned their attention to the blue-haired girl who was manipulating ice.
Esdeath instantly froze all the machines, flicking her finger to turn them into ice dust. A 500-meter radius around her became an icy landscape, while her allies remained unaffected by the freezing.
Oddly, the small cores of the larger machine life forms did not turn to ice. Esdeath walked over and picked one up from the ground. Unlike the machine cores seen in anime, which resembled machine heads, these were pure gray spherical cores.
The battle concluded quickly, and the rest of the girls, including Rika, approached Esdeath and Saeko.
"Having fun?" Rika asked.
"No, it's boring, too easy," Esdeath replied, and Saeko nodded in agreement.
Rika shook her head after hearing that from her sisters. After all, these machine life forms were mere small fry to them.
"What's this?" Esdeath asked, holding up the small gray ball from her hand.
"It's a machine core."
"Machine core?"
Esdeath, Saeko, and Rika exchanged glances. The machine cores they had seen in the anime were not like this.
"Are all cores like this?"
"No, they vary. If the machine life form is stronger, the core's size will be larger as well."
Esdeath thought to herself, 'So, that means the machines we killed were just weaklings,' and stored the cores in her Gate of Babylon. She planned to give them to Lucia.
"Are all humans from Esdeath-sama's world as strong as you?" Rose inquired, and the girls turned to her. Esdeath didn't know how to respond. She was once human but was no longer. The same applied to Saeko and Rika; they might still be considered human, although they had transformed into dragon-like beings.
They exchanged glances and decided not to disclose the truth. The girls might be shocked if they were told that they were no longer humans but rather monsters. Nevertheless, technically, they could still be considered human because they were once human themselves.
"Hmm... we evolved and gained powers. Not many humans can do what we can."
"I see... as expected of our creator's wives."
"You girls can just call us by our names."
"Yes, we're going to become sisters after all." Rika said.
"I wanted to ask before, but what do you mean by 'sister'?" Anemone asked.
"It means you all will become your creator's wives as well."
Esdeath dropped a bomb.
"You all will do the same things we did to Lucia last time too."
Esdeath dropped another bomb. The girls already understood what kind of things they would do because they had been discussing it on their way, and Rika had explained all sorts of things to the girls. At that time, the android girls were just learning about human knowledge, so they didn't feel much.
However, acting like that with their creator was completely different, and their emotions started to overflow.
"…"
The androids didn't know what to say. They were beginning to feel happy but didn't fully understand their emotions. This was the first time they had experienced such feelings.
"Mother's wife... mother's wife... mother's wife..." A2 repeated in a low tone, again and again.
A4 and G16 stood in a daze, unsure of what to say. They were thinking about many things, just like Rika had explained to them. They were creating images with Lucia using Photoshop or whatever app was installed in their heads.
~( ̄▽ ̄)~*
"Wa-wa-wa-wa-wa…" Lily was panicking as she thought about herself with Lucia.
21S was trembling with excitement. What the hell?
Rose and Anemone lowered their head in embarrassment as they thought of nasty things with Lucia as well. Dahila also thought things like that as well but sadly Lucia didn't plan to take her as her wife!
Saeko, Esdeath and Rika were amused as they looked at the girls. Rika started to say in a low tone as she smirked.
"Lucia is so fierce in bed…"
"She will do this… and that… like that…"
The android girls lower their heads as they start to imagine in their minds with Lucia. They know they don't have female organs to mate but Lucia is not just a normal human. She was their creator and as a creator, she knew how to create those kind of parts for them, which meant they were going to do all kinds of things just like Rika whispering to them.
Esdeath and Saeko look at each other and look at teasing Rika and the victim android girls as they smile warily and shake their heads.
At the same time, Red Girls who were checking on Lucia's wives with the YoRHa network from A2 were looking at the data they just got. It was speechless about the data they just received.
"…"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the individual bedroom of YoRHa, Lucia and White were lying on the bed. White wasn't crying anymore, and she lay on Lucia's arm, cuddling her. Lucia stroked White's hair softly as White calmed down.
"Have you calmed down now?"
"Mmm… Thank you, mother."
"Well, there's no need to thank me. You're also my child, after all," Lucia giggled as she said.
Once White calmed down, Lucia started to talk about other things related to humans, avoiding any mention of android-related topics. White's mood began to improve, and they chatted and joked with each other. They resembled a mother and daughter pair, chatting happily.
If other androids were to see White chatting happily and smiling, they might think that humans will going to extinct. But, of course, humans were already gone. Regardless, androids wouldn't believe their Commander White was smiling like that if they saw her, and they might think she had gone crazy or experienced some kind of error in her metallic head.
"I want to know about the current world. Can you show me the details?"
"Mm… I'll gather that information."
White gets up and is about to walk out but Lucia suddenly stands up as well and grabs her. After that, she gives a kiss on the lips of White.
White.exe stopped working. White knows what kind of things do between lovers. Unlike other androids, she knows many things. That's why she was shocked when Lucia suddenly kissed her. Lucia only pecked her and didn't do more than that but looking at White standing in a daze with a shocked expression was amusing.
"It's a reward for you. Little white." Lucia said with a giggle.
White came back to her senses after a few more seconds and covered her face with her hands. Right now she doesn't dare to look at her mother.
"How cute…"
[White: Affection - 80%] (+5%)
Lucia held her hands and uncovered White's face slowly. Her face didn't become red but Lucia could tell White was embarrassed now. Her eyes can't focus and she runs in all directions to look away from Lucia's eye.
"Pfff…"
Lucia laughed and kissed her again. This time she used her tongue and started to play with White's slightly cool tongue. Androids were created the same as humans and their body parts were soft, just like humans.
Lucia embraced her again and ran her hand behind White's back. White also hugged Lucia tightly as well and started to enjoy herself to the fullest. The room was filling with their kiss sounds.
[White: Affection - 85%] (+5%)
[White: Affection - 90%] (+5%)
After nearly an hour of kissing, they part again and look at each other eyes. Lucia smirks and White covers her face with Lucia's soft breasts. A moment later, White unhook her hands from Lucia's back and rushed out of the room.
"I-I will go and get the information of the world!" white shouted and left the room. Lucia smiled and shook her head slightly.
"Lucia, I want to see you now."
Lucia heard Saya's voice and told her to come. Saya used to teleport and appear in front of Lucia. Saya hugged her as soon as she appeared and started to kiss passionately.
After 20 minutes, they part with sliver thread from each other's tongue. Lucia sat on the bed and put Saya on her lap. Saya hugged Lucia's hip and rested her head on Lucia's shoulder.
"That's why I told you to follow me, didn't I?"
"Hmm… I wanted to finish the experiment I was doing."
"What kind of experiment are you doing? Is it more important than me?" Lucia asked Saya while raising her right eyebrow.
"Of course not! You are more important to me! That also includes my mother and sisters!" Saya explained, and Lucia nodded with a satisfied face. Suddenly, the door opened, and White entered.
"Mother, here…" White stopped and looked at the beautiful pink-haired girl sitting on Lucia's lap affectionately. She was sure there was no android like her in the YoRHa base. She was about to ask, but Saya suddenly said, "Mother… huh?"
"Well, technically, I'm a mother to them... So, yeah."
"You must be happy with a world full of your 'daughters.' Is that why you wanted to come here? Hmm?"
"Ahem… don't talk like that, even though you call me 'mother' as well."
"W-what are you talking about? I-it was you who wanted me to call you like that!"
"Ah! Come here, little White. This is one of my wives. You can call her moth--"
"Sister! Just call me Sister Saya or Saya-nee."
White nodded and sat beside Lucia, handing her the tablet. However, her tablet was made entirely of glass, with only a small metal part in the top left corner. It could even produce a 3D hologram of the entire world, with many pictures and locations labeled on the globe.
"Amazing! How did they create this with just glass?" Saya was amazed.
"Really? Didn't Mother tell you about this?"
"I-I forgot to tell her about this. Hahaha."
'Completely forgot that I was the creator of androids! It means I can also make this, right? That would be insane if I had no idea!' Lucia thought.
[You can acquire technology-related skills.]
'Rin! Where have you been? Thank God you're here!'
[What do you mean? I'm always with you, though?]
A red, thick-marked screen appeared in front of Lucia.
'I'm sorry…'
"Lucia?" She came back to her senses because of Saya.
"Ah, yes. I will tell you about that later. Let's check out the world first." The girls nodded and started to examine the hologram.
