#Code: Antithese pathline

Code: Unknown

1/4 - Enter ‘Bethma Village’

When Eve wakes up, she realizes that the core is destroyed and despairs.

Perhaps she should have left a more detailed order and kept it in a safer place.

However, she can't just regret what has already happened.

Eve looks for code that has enough power to resolve the current situation she is in among the codes in her possession.

2/4 - Bethma - Clear ‘Bethma Lake’ [0/1]

Eve finds a mysterious code 'Unknown' deep within her code that was discarded due to being deemed too dangerous before.

The reason why the experiment was discarded was because this code held too much power. Though it may be dangerous to used this code that's been securely locked, the immense power this code has may be what's needed to change the current situation she is in.

Let's collect various data to remove the lock on the code.

3/4 - Enter ‘Bethma Village’

Eve manages to remove the lock on Code: Unknown after various trials. Eve feels immense power coursing through the circuits and is sure that she made the right choice.

But soon, Eve realizes that her aerial movement code has disappeared.

4/4 - Clear 'Dragon Nest' [0/1]

Many things have changed since the past. Eve decided on the choice that she believed was the best option despite the dangers she needed to risk.

She is the last remaining survivor, and the Queen of the Nasods. May there be perfection without mistake with this decision.

It's not a mistake. She did not make the wrong choice. Eve decides to pretend that the lost code never existed and use the immense power of Code: Unknown.

Code: Antithese

Default

5/5 -  Clear El Tower Defense 5 times [0/5]

'What does it mean to be right?'

The red messages hasn't shown in a while, but instead of relief, she felt anxiety.

How many codes did she lose up to this point? How many codes did she recreate? Among those codes, how many of them remained? Eve couldn't even begin to estimate.

Getting rid of failure because she didn't wish to fail, because mistakes were not acceptable, made it hard for her to trust the authenticity of her success. In addition to that, the overloading emotion core added to the chaos. Even though it was part of her programming, she was unable to control it, and it affects her in ways a perfect Nasod would not feel.

But even so, she could not give up.

If not for her who is Elrios would emember her brethren and live in their stead?

Who can save their poor lives? Console their loneliness?

'Is this your perfection?'

That's why she needed to be perfect. Because she could not afford to make any mistake, she chose to be perfect. But in order to be perfect she needed something 'wrong' that will be her opposite.

Eve smiled. She headed towards the sanctum with dance-like steps. She wanted to see the answer she was waiting for.

Code: Failess

1/5 - Clear Altera - 'Nasod Foundry' [0/1]

Several more codes disappeared. It was a side effect of using the power of Code:Unknown, but Eve did not stop using the power of Code: Unknown.

The lost codes can be replaced with something similar.

There's nothing to be worried about.

In order to find a replacement for the lost code, Eve headed to Nasod Foundry.

2/5 - Clear Alter - 'Altera Core' [0/1]

The creation of the replacement code was progressing smoothly, but Eve was facing another problem. The learning AI installed within Eve was sending error messaged every time she used Code: Unknown.

Why is it saying it's wrong? She tried fixing it multiple times, but the error messages kept piling. Perhaps Altera Core may have the solution to this annoying problem.

3/5 - Enter 'Feita Village'

There was no solution found at Altera Core, and the error messages kept piling.

She felt strange whenever she saw the red messages pop up. An emotion no perfect Nasod would feel... Humans would call this, uncertainty.

Eve stopped, not knowing what to do, when she hears a request for help from Feita. Demons... a new enemy King Nasod warned her about...

Let's suppress your emotions and head to Feita.

4/5 - Clear Feita - Enter 'Shrine of Dedication Entrance' [0/1]

Perhaps it's because of demonic energy that's known to amplify negative emotions, but Eve finds it hard to control her emotions once she arrives in Feita.

At this rate, she will not be able to achieve her dream of rebuilding the Nasod race. As such, Eve decides to create a code that will provide a solution to this problem forever, instead of just replacing the lost code.

Once she activated the code she named Failess, the failed values were forcefully changed to success values. As the red error messages decreased, Eve felt relief. It seems she can continue with battle.

5/5 - Clear Feita - 'Underground Chapel' [0/1]

As she forcibly controls the error created by Code: Unknown with Code: Failess, Eve felt strange.

At the end of joy there was endless despair, and after sadness, there was uncontrollable rage. It was due to the unresolved errors overloading her emotion core, but Eve did not notice as even this error was forcibly changed to success values before the red error message popped up.

Everything is perfect. There is no problem. Eve continued onward even as the emotion core went out of control. She believed she could rebuild her race as she is right now.
