[Location: Siberia, Frozen Lake, Abandoned Facility, Room 23]

Inside room 23, you could see Alaya asking Mobius for possibilities that could happen if they proceeded with such plans one by one, going through each plan that Alaya created for Mobius to give her answer.

"What about this plan? We both use Essence to destroy their whole army that they all brought?" Alaya said as she held a hologram of data in her hand and gave it to Mobius. Mobius read through it and disapproved of the plan.

"No, we can't. Those people in the ship would start moving or hunting us down by themselves if we used Essence on the battlefield, and it would be 2 vs. 7, and we are outnumbered in 'Essence Users' in this factor, so this will be denied.

Hearing that, Alaya started to rummage through the data of the plan that she created and pulled out another piece of data from the stacks of data in the hologram.

"How about this one? We can use Essence on the artificial humans, forcefully making them know how to use Essence. That would make up for about 322 artificial humans, which are artificial 'Essence Users' and us two natural 'Essence Users', so that would make a huge difference in numbers and we could overwhelm them" Alaya talked of the plan she made. As Mobius reads through the data in the hologram, it contains more comprehensive detail about the plan itself. As she finished reading it, she looked at Alaya and said.

"Still no, although it's a good plan to forcefully make them know to use Essence, those people might bring more natural 'Essence Users' and also artificial 'Essence Users', although much weaker than the current 7 Essence Users in that ship, but those 'Essence Users' that would come will still easily take care of the 322 artificial 'Essence Users'in a timespan of a few hours, and this planet would pretty much become unrecognizable, and a few hours is not even long enough to kill those 7 'Essence Users' so it would make it just more troublesome if we do this plan" Mobius said as she expressed her thoughts about the plan that Alaya created.

"So, using Essence is forbidden because it might force them to also use 'Essence Users' early, making it more complicated on who would even win," Alaya said as she racked her brains all of a sudden. She seemed to just remember as she rummaged through the data of the holograms and took out a piece of data out of the stacks of data of the hologram and gave it to Mobius.

"How about this one? We use the 'Quantum Annihilator Cannon' to destroy their mothership first, and destroying the 'Quantum Anti-Matter Laser Satellite' with that would give us a path to get out of this planet and arrive at another planet" Alaya said, as she seemed to be wanting this type of plan to be put in place as Mobius read through the data of the plan, deciphering it.

"I agree with this plan, although I would suggest a few changes. in the plan, is that okay?" Mobius said as she asked Alaya for her agreement on changing parts of the mission.

"Of course, if you do find flaws in my plan, please revise it as you see it fit" Alaya said as she allowed Mobius to change the plans.

As they picked up the plan, a knock came at the door with a voice behind it. It was Aria's voice.

"May I come in?" Aria said outside the door, holding the huge parfaits with the plate below them. She is holding it with one hand as the other hand holds the plate filled with honey-glazed almond clusters.

"Oh, come in" Alaya said, as if anticipating the parfait that would come to her table.

As Aria heard what Alaya just said, she entered the room and put the huge parfaits and the honey-glazed almond clusters on the table. Alaya seemed to be entranced by the parfait as she took one of the huge parfaits and took a bite at it.

"Hmm, this is delicious" Alaya said as she took another bite of the parfait, and Mobius took the last huge parfait on the table as she too took a bite at it.

"I agree this parfait is truly delicious. Then what about these honey-glazed almond clusters?" Mobius said as she took one of the honey-glazed almond clusters and took a bite at it.

"This one is impeccable. combining it with the parfait enhances the taste of the parfait itself because of the help of the honey" Mobius said as she took another bite of the parfait, but with the honey-glazed almond clusters this time.

"Really, let me try" Alaya said, as she seemed to also want to try it to see how it would taste. She took a honey-glazed almond cluster and ate it with the parfait.

"Hmm, it really does increase the taste. How did you create it?" Alaya asks Aria about how she created this delicacy in front of her.

"Well, it's all about finding the right balance of flavors and textures. I started with toasting the almonds to bring out their nuttiness, then crafted a honey glaze with a touch of cinnamon. Combining this with the parfait created a delightful contrast that seemed to work wonders. It's a fusion of simplicity and attention to detail, really" Aria said on how the two delicacies complemented each other.

"Well, that does not change the fact that what you just created is delicious" Alaya said as she took another bite of the parfait with the honey-glazed almond clusters in it.

"How about following us from now on? I am your creator descendant after all, and I could upgrade you and even give you the lost memories from when you were still a human a long time ago before you became a 'Bio-Nanomachine-Type'. Although we are currently being hunted, we just had a plan that could make us escape this planet without those guys noticing, well, most of them. So what do you think?" Mobius said as she seemed to want to have Aria as a maid to cook for the both of them.

Aria's eyes widened in mild astonishment at Mobius' unexpected proposal. She blinked, momentarily taken aback, but she seemed determined to want to remember his past rather than a mere upgrade in her component throughout the years. She always wanted to remember the past before she became a 'Bio-Nanomachine-Type'.

"Can you really return my memory?" Aria asked for confirmation.

"Of course, we are 'Essence Users' after all. We could pretty much even return your memory before you were even born as a human, making you remember your past life" Mobius said as Aria got closer to her and kneeled in front of Mobius.

"Please allow me to remember my past before I was a 'Bio-Nanomachine-Type'. I want my memory when I was a human. I want to remember it" Aria said, as she has always wanted to remember what her life was like in the past, as it always plagued her. The words of Dr. Edward have always been in her mind, saying that she's still the same Aria but not the Aria he knew. Hearing that from her creator, she always wanted to know what type of person she really was before she became this little to no emotion robot.

"Of course" Mobius said as she touched Aria's head, and Aria's body changed similar to that of a quantum entity, erasing the biological and metallic components in her body as memories of hers returned and tears ran down her cheeks.

As everything was finished, Aria ran out of the room, leaving the room and surprising Alaya.

"Hey! Where are you going?" Alaya asked, but Aria had already gotten out of the room.

"Let her be. She is trying to meet her father now" Mobius said as she took another bite of the parfait.

"Her father? Is her father even alive this year? It's been over 342,767 years since humanity abandoned this planet, and I'm pretty sure that's a very long time. Even the life span of humans does not even exceed 1,000 years" Alaya said as she looked at Mobius for an answer.

"Hehe, just wait, and you'll see" Mobius said as she giggled at the thought of Alaya being surprised.

[4:52 PM, July 9, 2849, CE]

In the hallway, you could see Aria running as if trying to find someone. As she went left, she saw it. She saw her father in front of her as she ran after him and jumped to hug him, surprising the person she just hugged.

"Father, thank goodness you're alive" Aria said as tears fell from her eyes as she hugged the person more tightly than before.

And the person that she hugged is the emotionless artificial human who seemed to be surprised by what's happening. He did not even know why Miss Aria even called him father and started crying, yet for some reason he seemed to be happy. A being like him that could not feel emotion finally felt emotion this time. Seeing Aria cry, he patted her back and unconsciously said.

"Don't cry, father is here," said the emotionless artificial human as he too cried for unknown reasons.
