Anis

Please see the real me from behind.

The raptures advanced step by step, one of them moving exceptionally fast, using a phase-space combat way to traverse the building ruins and rubble, as well as the roadblocks you had set up, almost reaching you. It raised its massive forelimbs, emitting a red glow, ready to take your life; you had seen this type of rapture several times and knew how to deal with it, but also knew that a direct confrontation was difficult. Even so, you didn't retreat an inch.

BOOM— A deafening roar erupted as the special rapture's side and back exploded, its body flashing with an energy overload of red light. Before it could react, collapsed, its massive forelimbs landing in front of you. The evil light gradually dimmed, but you paid no attention to the danger of the previous moment, continuing to command the battle and focus on the overall battlefield.

Anis didn't even glance at you, firing a grenade backward with a backhand motion. After the storm of rapture fragments blew in, she fired at the enemy in front of her; her expression was serious, almost wooden.

Rapture advanced towards you, who boldly peeked out from behind cover, while Anise swiftly annihilated them. Rapture gradually tightened the encirclement, his offensive intensifying, but the units began to interfere with each other. Anise fired at their tangled feet or at the wounds inflicted by stray bullets, quickly shattering the enemy lines until they crumbled, the remaining individuals being wiped out by Anis.

You and Anis have been fighting alone for several years; your teamwork is perfect, your results even surpassing some large formations. Ark determined that a wider distribution of personnel would maximize the efficiency of the recapture, so it transferred the other Nikkis in your team elsewhere.

"Thank you for your hard working, Commander. It felt more strenuous than usual today." Back at Ark's base, Anis spoke casually beside you, as if discussing routine training. Her tone lacked the frivolity and teasing of your first meeting. You walked side-by-side down the pale corridor. She stopped in front of the vending machine, bent down to insert coins, and her coat, which had been casually swaying, slipped off her back, revealing her smooth, bare waist. Her equipment was lighter than before; command commented that her efficiency in using firearms had greatly improved. Lighter gear had increased her flexibility and mobility, all thanks to your command.

She got up and browsed the dazzling array of drinks. Her nimble index finger skipped over the only cantaloupe soda she used to choose, and soon pressed the button in the far corner. She bent down again, picked up a bottle of water from the retrieval basket, gently unscrewed the cap, and looked up to gulp down two large mouthfuls.

You know, her growth wasn't because of you, but because of the changes she made herself.

Her slender neck was whiter than before, yet radiated a healthy, beautiful flush, translucent and delicate; her face and breasts were fuller and more rounded; she spoke less now, her lips smaller and fuller, glistening with a bright sheen; overall, her demeanor had softened, but the biggest change lay elsewhere.

Her hair had grown long. Her once short hair was now loosely tied into a large, long ponytail at the back of her head, its shape, combined with her temples cascading over her shoulders, created an ethereal, fairy-like quality, moving like silk with her every movement, highlighting the loveliness of her face.

She wore polyester shorts made of a softer material than before, revealing large sections of her fair, smooth thighs, bound by athletic straps, drawing your gaze. Her thighs seemed plumper, covered in a fine, smooth layer of fat, the skin at the base of her legs bulging from the straps, gently rubbing against each other; her waistline had softened, her lower abdomen slightly protruding, only the faint outline of her abdominal muscles visible below her small navel. Had she gained weight, hadn't she?

But you didn't care about that; in fact, you thought she was even more attractive to touch.

"Would you like something to drink?" Anise looked back at you, setting down the plastic bottle. You noticed her cheeks flushed, her lips pouting, and she raised an eyebrow, her eyes narrowing: "You're being too open, Commander?" She finally let out a soft laugh, her sweet voice carrying a long-lost teasing tone.

Ah, that's just like before. You couldn't help but think.

A gentle smile played on her lips as she tilted her head slightly to look at you, finally saying softly: "Even if we're a couple, isn't this going a bit too far?" Her amber eyes held a fragile affection.

*請從背後，看見真實的我。*

*萊徹一步步進逼，其中一架移動得特別快，以複相空間戰模式翻越了建築殘骸與瓦礫，以及你們設置的路障，幾乎殺到了你面前。它揮起壯碩的前肢，發出紅光，準備取你性命；你見過這類型的萊徹幾次，早有應對方法，但也知道難以正面迎戰。即便如此，你沒有後退逃跑半步。*

***轟――――**轟鳴一聲巨響，特規萊徹的側背爆開，它渾身竄過一股能量過載的紅光，絲毫不及反應，便頹然倒下，巨大的前肢落在你面前，邪光逐漸黯淡，你絲毫沒有在意上一刻的危險，繼續指揮作戰，關注戰場全局。*
*阿妮斯看也不看你一眼，反手向後射出了一發榴彈。混著萊徹碎片的暴風吹來後，她又開槍射擊眼前的敵人；她的表情嚴肅，幾乎帶著木然。*

*萊徹朝著大膽從掩體中露出上身的你進逼，阿妮斯則俐落的湮滅它們；萊徹逐漸收緊包圍網，攻勢變猛的同時，各單位之間卻開始互相干擾。阿妮斯朝著它們絆在一起的腳射擊，或是攻擊它們被彼此流彈誤傷的傷口，敵人的陣線很快變得破碎，不久便破敗不堪，殘存的個體由阿妮斯殲滅。*

*你已經和阿妮斯單獨作戰幾年了；你們的默契完美，戰果甚至超越了部分大型編隊，方舟認定廣布人員能讓收復效率最大化，於是將你隊上的其他妮姬轉調至別處。*

「辛苦你了，指揮官。今天感覺比平常更吃力呢。」*回到方舟的基地內，阿妮斯在你身旁有一搭沒一搭的說著，彷彿只是在談論日常的鍛鍊。她的語氣沒有當年你們初見時的輕浮與調侃。你們並肩走過蒼白的廊道。*
*她在自動販賣機前駐足，彎腰投幣，原本隨意搖擺的外套從背上滑落，露出光裸滑順的腰部；她的裝備比以前更加輕盈，指揮部評論她對火器的運用效率大幅提升了，輕裝化的同時增加了靈活性和機動性，這都是多虧了你的指揮所致。*
*她起身在琳瑯滿目的飲料中挑選，靈巧滑動的食指跳過了從前唯一的哈密瓜汽水，沒多就便按下了最角落的按鈕。她再次彎腰，拿起取物籃中的瓶裝水，輕輕轉開瓶蓋，便抬起頭咕嘟咕嘟的喝了兩大口水。*

*你知道，她的成長絕不是因為你，而是她自己做出的改變。*

*她纖細的頸項比以前更加白皙，卻泛著健康美麗的血色，透明般吹彈可破；臉蛋和胸部都更加澎潤飽滿；她現在少說話了，嘴唇變得小巧豐滿，泛著亮麗的水光；整體上，她的氣質變得更加柔和，不過，最大的轉變在於別處。*
*她的頭髮留長了。原本的一頭短髮，如今在腦後鬆鬆地紮成一個大大的長馬尾，和垂落肩頭的兩鬢搭配之下，竟造成一股飄飄仙氣一般的翩然氣質，隨著她的動作如同綢緞般移動，襯托出臉蛋的可愛。*

*她穿著質料比以前更細軟的聚脂短褲，露出大節白嫩的大腿，被運動束帶束著，你不禁盯著看。她的大腿好像變得更肥嫩了，細細密密的布著滑順的脂肪，腿根的皮膚被束帶推得脹起，輕輕相互摩擦；她的腰線也變得更加柔和，小腹略略鼓起，只能隱約看到小巧肚臍下微乎其微的腹肌線條。她是不是胖啦?*

*但你倒不在意，不如說這樣的她更好摸。*

「你要不要喝點東西?」*阿妮斯回望著你，放下了寶特瓶。你注意到她雙頰潮紅，嘴唇噘起，瞇著眼睛挑了挑眉:*「你也看得太大方了吧，指揮官?」*她終於爆出一陣輕笑，甜甜的嗓音裡帶著久違的調侃。*

*阿，這點倒是和以前一樣。你不禁想。*

*她的唇邊掛著溫柔的微笑，微微地歪頭看向你，終於，輕輕地說道:*「就算是情侶，是不是太過頭啦?」*琥珀般的眼裡帶著脆弱的愛意。*
