Thanks to Madam Estelle's arrival, who reminded me of the responsibilities I was carrying as the leader of the military expedition, I immediately rushed towards the Central Command tent, which build between two large trees.

The entrance to the Central Command tent swung open, revealing a familiar interior. A wide, round table held various plant and animal samples newly discovered this day, and the tired faces of high-ranking military officers who still staring at reports on the table.

Even from a considerable distance, I could see the hustle and bustle I would face as the leader of this military expedition.

"Is it time for the evening meeting, dinner, and evaluation of today's events, huh?" I said as I continued walking towards the Central Command tent and saw my twin sister holding my magic staff, observing the perfectly mapped area to compare with the map they had made.

Tap...

Tap...

The moment I stepped into the Central Command tent, my footsteps caught the attention of everyone inside, without exception. Their tired, restless state suddenly shifted to a more serious one upon seeing me inside.

My hand immediately rose and gave a small signal to be more relaxed in tonight's meeting.

"No need to be so tense."

As I said those words, I could see the smiles of the military officers, relieved and able to breathe a sigh of relief after their exhaustion. Some of them looked sweaty and their hair disheveled, as if they hadn't showered and were keep working on the reports they were supposed to deliver to me.

My footsteps continued until I sat in my chair, together with Alice and Alyssa, who were still busy drawing an accurate map based on my magic circle formation.

I wanted to talk to them, but my eyes were already on the tall pile of report papers on my desk.

"Looks like we found something interesting while I was gone," I muttered as I pulled my chair back to provide more room to lean back and relax.

"The discovery that occurred today is just a report of an underground cave connected to the residence of the Forest Elf race, Lily-sama. There is nothing special except the memory of a female Elf named Lisa to mapping an underground cave path. Thanks to the help of the memory in her head, we have created a map of the underground cave that can be used as an evacuation route from entrance of vast forest to the deepest forest area. This underground cave path will become an evacuation route once the defenses at Marquess Rommel's Main Mansion are breached," said Madam Estelle, sounding serious in every word.

Slllooopp...

Slloooppp...

As she said this, Madam Estelle took out four stacks of paper and arranged them into showing a map of the underground cave. Looking at the four sheets of paper, which contained the complex route of the underground cave, I felt like sighing in exhausted and wanting to sleep, little bit.

"This is different from what I imagined before," I muttered as I looked in front of me, which was suddenly covered by Madam Estelle's large breasts, who was arranging several papers into a large, complex map.

Booiinngg...

Booiinngg...

When I was tired and wanted to relax for a moment, I had to stare at Madam Estelle's big breasts, which triggered drowsiness, to the point of tempting me to fall asleep on her big breasts.

Ugh, what am I thinking?

It seems my mind has started to become confused after being exhausted from magical energy and returning to work as a military expedition leader.

The four pieces of paper that formed a complex underground cave map suddenly turned into a very detailed underground cave map. The shape is rectangular and composed of four paper... now became a fifteen pieces of paper, then displayed a detailed underground cave path in front of me.

"G-Good job, Madam Estelle."

"Now, we know the underground cave route used by the Forest Elves."

"Uhm, won't this be a problem for the Forest Elf race?"

"T-This is like revealing the secret of their underground cave routes to us, isn't it?" I asked Madam Estelle, who had arranged the sheets of paper into a detailed map of the underground caves, so detailed that I could see the routes of underground water that was safe to drink directly.

As soon as she heard my question, Madam Estelle smiled and stood beside me with Mio.

"According to Miss Lisa's words, she feels there will be no problem as long as Lily-sama holds the alliance contract that has been signed with the blessing of the Goddess of Nature. So the secret underground cave route has officially become part of the classified information for the Marquess Rommel family as well, although at this time the status is still classified information A1 for Lily-sama. Only Lily-sama has just learned this information, while Alice-sama and Alyssa-sama refused to know this information," said Madam Estelle further.

Hearing Madam Estelle's words, I immediately glanced at Alice and Alyssa, who were busy drawing an accurate map based on the information they had obtained while riding on Sia's back.

My twin sisters' attitude of not wanting to interfere regarding A1's confidential information seems to be intentional, and they don't want to bother to keep the confidential information from their mouths.

"Besides Lisa and you, has anyone else seen this underground cave route?" I asked Madam Estelle further, looking at the underground cave map in front of me.

"Besides Miss Lisa and me? Uhm... No one knows about it except Lily-sama," Madam Estelle replied with a low tone answer.

"How about you report this to my mother as A1 classified information that must be known by the Marquess Rommel family? That way... the curious Alice and Alyssa will also know, too," I replied while glancing at my twin sisters, who were secretly peeking at the map of the underground cave displayed before my eyes.

With a smile on my face and my eyes catching my twin sisters peeking at the detailed underground cave map, I chuckled.

"Want to see a detailed map of the underground caves, Alice... Alyssa?" I asked my twin sisters, who couldn't contain their curiosity.

Nod...

Nod...

With a slight nod of their heads, Alice and Alyssa stopped what they were doing. They approached me with curious eyes and glanced at the sheet of paper that formed a detailed map of the underground cave.

Without saying a word and remaining silent, Alyssa seemed curious about a place and pointed to a narrow underground cave passage.

"Lily-nee, this is the location from Shrine of the Goddess of Nature worshipped by the Forest Elf race," Alyssa said while pointing at the map and tapping it.

Tap...

Tap...

With a soft tap, Alyssa pointed to a place she had visited, and has a Shrine belonging to the Goddess of Nature.

I looked at the spot Alyssa had pointed to and tried to recall the location of the Nature Goddess Shrine, built in an underground cave. My eyes suddenly fell on an underground river that connected to the back of the Nature Goddess Shrine.

Tiingg!!

Tiingg!!

The vague memory rushed into my mind, as if I had just returned from the Nature Goddess Shrine built in an underground cave. The location Alyssa had pointed out matched the memory I had in my head.

"If I'm not mistaken... there's an exit blocked by rock debris, right?" I asked Alyssa and immediately saw the underground cave path she pointed to until it led to a large underground cave intersection.

"Ah, that's right... according to the memory in my head, that was the right place" I continued after finding my own answer.

"If it's like this... we'd better share the secret with Lisa and the entire Forest Elf race, who have formed an alliance contract with Marquess Rommel's family, Lily-nee."

Srruuussshh...

At just the right moment and without much trouble for me to find her, Lisa and her triplet Elf nieces entered the Central Command tent along with four female knights carrying trays of dinner.

"It seems I came at the right time, Lily-sama," Lisa said while smiling at me and holding a wooden cup, raising it as if inviting me to toast with her.

"Yes, you came at the right time, Lisa. Sit down and listen to the important information that just happened recently. Because it has to do with another noble family and a new religious group that formed an alliance contract with Marquess Rommel's family."

"Oh my... After leaving suddenly then coming back with a new alliance contract. You really work hard, Lily-sama," Lisa replied teasingly.

"To be honest, it wasn't called an official alliance. It was just an alliance that was created because I was the Monarch of Holy Destruction, who was directly appointed by the Goddess of Destruction, and coincidentally... the Goddess of Destruction's holy territory was inside an old castle town that was part of a Duchess's territory and they're... also followers the Goddess of Destruction," I said to explain the events that had happened to Lisa with forced smile.

"..."

"..."

"..."

The moment I answered Lisa's question with a awkward tone, the atmosphere suddenly turned silent, and everyone in the Central Command tent stopped all the activities they were doing, except for my twin sisters, who were still busy satisfying their curiosity about Lisa's detailed, underground cave map.

"I-Is there something wrong with what I said?" I asked Lisa, who suddenly fell silent in front of me.

"T-There are some mistakes that seem... I've heard, Lily-sama. Y-You said that you formed an alliance contract with the Duchess's noble family? If I'm not mistaken... the Duchess's family is the second-highest noble after the royal family in the human kingdom's noble hierarchy, right?" said Lisa, feeling unsure of what she had heard from me.

"Yes?" I replied with a confused expression.

Has my previous answer confused everyone?

I don't think there's anything wrong with my answer, though...

"With all due respect, Lily-sama..."

"I can still understand if you represent the Marquess Rommel family to ally with the Duchess family. But for something related to a new religious group and the sacred territory of the Goddess of Destruction. Does that mean... Lily-sama is a Saintess appointed directly by the Goddess of Destruction?" asked Lisa, who seemed to have other thoughts on her mind.

"..." I was silent after seeing Lisa's confusion.

"Guess I'll have to explain it all over again, huh?" I muttered as I leaned back in my chair.

While gathering my will to explain the events that had occurred in the old castle town and the alliance contract that had occurred, I took a deep breath and prepared to explain every event that had happened.

With a sense of tiredness lingering in my mouth, I explained the details about the Goddess of Destruction's sacred territory located in the old castle town, in Duchess Kaori's domain.

Lisa and her triplet Elf nieces listened to my explanation intently until they said, "Aahh... I'm so jealous!! They have a sacred area from their beloved Goddess."
