NIKKE: Max Bonded but System Gone

"What party?"

Green was stunned. He hadn't checked the group chat for a while, and suddenly, there was talk about a party? He hadn't heard of any upcoming events in the Ark either. As Green pondered, the group chat became lively again.

Sugar: "Tonight's party is: After night falls, the first person to arrive at the consultation room gets to have a BIG SPECIAL FUN PARTY with the Commander! The rest can line up and wait. Anyway, I'll definitely be the first."

Neon: "Wow, so exciting! Can I join too?"

Soline: "Wahhh, I have to work overtime tonight!"

Drake: "Even if you weren't working overtime, kids aren't allowed at the party."

Soline: "???"

Soline: (twitching lips, angrily pounding the table, remembering the promise with the Commander, blushing, clenching fists tightly)

Soline: "Waaahhhhhh!! The Commander promised to date me! I don't care! I don't care! I'm reporting you all! If I can't attend the party, none of you will have fun! Ahhhhhhh!! The Dual Pistols will have their say!"

Drake: "Ugh, so noisy!"

Privaty: "I'm on vacation right now, so I'm signing off to go change bodies."

Yulha: "You're definitely going to the consultation room tonight."

Privaty: "How did you know? But let me just say, I'm not like you all. I'm just going for a normal consultation, not for some kind of party!"

Yulha: "Tch, everyone in the world knows what you're thinking except for you."

Privaty: "I-I'm not!"

Pepper: "Everyone, listen up. The Commander has just recovered from a major illness and moved to the outpost base. He needs proper rest!"

Sugar: "Don't worry, I'll give him a loving kiss."

Blanc: "I just asked my sister, Noir said she wants to come too. I think the Commander won't refuse the twin bunnies, right?"

Rupee: "There are so many people going to see the Commander tonight, but Rupee won't lose! I'm off to prepare a gift!"

Rapi: "..."

Rapi has left the group chat.

"Is this how rumors are born?"

Green tilted his head back and downed the last sip of coffee.

From "the Commander has a favorite Nikke" to "the Commander is going to host a hookup party in the consultation room," his intentions were completely distorted!

But... maybe it wasn't impossible. If it had to happen, so be it.

The renowned anatomist, Rapunzel, once said: "To truly understand a girl, you need to have BIG SPECIAL FUN with her!"

As the Ark's resident "incubus," Green might fear a broken pelvis, but he wasn't some timid herbivore. If it had to happen, he'd go through with it. With his unique constitution, he'd survive even severe injuries. Over the past six months, his body had been punctured and pierced multiple times, but as long as the wounds weren't fatal, a few days in the hospital were enough to recover.

The Ark's medical staff had concluded: "You can't generalize about human constitutions."

Green's body was just that extraordinary.

As for why... The records didn't say.

"Why do I heal so fast?"

Green lifted his shirt, glancing at his abdomen, which had been pierced by Modernia's tenticle during a recent mission. In just a few days, the stitched area had almost fully healed.

Green couldn't quite figure it out, but he wasn't in a rush to investigate. He believed that by progressing steadily, everything would eventually become clear.

For now, he answered himself, "It's my love for the Nikkes that allows me to heal so well. To liberate the Nikkes, I must deeply understand their bodies and souls. And these Nikkes, who hold key positions in the Ark, will one day become my most powerful allies..."

Sigh...!

"The road ahead is long."

Green exhaled deeply. Just as he was about to turn on the TV to check today's programs, a knock sounded at the door of the Commander's office.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Commander, Commander—"

"Commander~~~!"

"Comm~~~~~~"

"Cum~~~~"

A cheerful, lively girl's voice came from outside the door.

"Anis, is that you? Come in."

"Hehe, here I come!"

Wearing a sunny yellow tactical jacket, a blonde girl with a cheerful smile walked into the Commander's office, her arms full of fresh clothes.

Her name was Anis, one of the key members of Green's "Misfits" counterattack team.

Green still remembered their first meeting—Anis had looked disheartened, grumbling about why the Ark had sent yet another clueless Commander. But ever since Green promised to provide her with a shower and soda drinks, Anis seemed to have become much more cheerful.

"Commander~! It's my rare day off, so I'm here for another shower!"

Anis raised her right hand in a mock salute, squinting her eyes with a goofy grin. The little tuft of hair on her head perked up playfully.

Green glanced at Anis.

Beneath the yellow tactical jacket, her well-proportioned and curvaceous figure was evident. The snug tank top she wore accentuated her ample chest, and her thigh-high stockings—embellished with the word "bullet"—highlighted her full, shapely thighs and hips.

"Commander, why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?"

Noticing Green's gaze, Anis skipped over to him with her usual energetic stride.

Green smiled faintly and swiveled his chair to face her. "Anis, I feel like you're getting prettier lately."

Anis blushed, her face turning rosy. "Really? Commander, are you teasing me?"

"Not at all... These are the socks you left in the Commander's office last time. I washed them for you—take them back, and don't leave them lying around again."

With a subtle smirk, Green retrieved two gray long socks from the drawer and tossed them onto the sofa.

Anis's face turned red as she looked at Green's amused expression. Even someone as shameless as her felt flustered.

"Ah ha! Didn't you say you like collecting socks, Commander? Maybe you should just keep them here."

"Alright then. How about I take you shopping next time and get you a few more pairs?"

"Really, Commander? Thank you so much! Well, I'm off for a shower!"

With her heart pounding, Anis, her face still flushed, hurried into the bathroom.

Through the foggy glass, Green could hear the faint rustle of her undressing.

Even though Nikkes don't sweat and their bodies rarely have odors, many still follow human habits like eating, bathing, and sleeping to maintain a sense of normalcy.

For Anis, however, bathing seems to be an obsession.

Nearly every day, she'd come to the Commander's office to use Green's shower, enjoying a long, hot soak. In the past, when Anis and Neon bathed, Green would excuse himself to another room to avoid any awkwardness. Now, with familiarity, none of them seemed to mind anymore.

"Let's watch some TV."

Beep.

Taking advantage of the rare day off, Green lounged on the sofa and turned on the TV, casually watching Rupee's shopping program.

In the bathroom, hearing the TV sounds outside, Anis stole a glance at Green's faintly visible figure through the frosted glass. She murmured softly to herself, "Commander... what am I to you, deep down?"
