NIKKE, When the Milky Way Blossoms

Because long ago, having seen through the true nature of the Ark, he had already decided to abandon these useless ideas.

However, when Matt learned that the target of the assassination tonight was that madman, even he, who was usually indifferent to everything, couldn't help but feel suspicious.

Why did they want to assassinate him?

To assassinate one of the most decorated military commanders of the past two decades...

madman???

This question remained buried deep in the assassin's heart. Then, following the route given to him, he successfully infiltrated MMR High School…

drop--

Half an hour later, a notification sound that hadn't been heard in a long time suddenly rang in Matt's earpiece.

In the lower right corner of the integrated night vision device's interface, the heart rate monitor, which is second to last, stops beating when an electronic sound effect is triggered.

Number four died?!

Matt's breath hitched, and his attention was immediately drawn to the headset.

Unfortunately, all he got in return was his own heartbeat.

There was no collision, no gunshots, no screams, and no signs of a struggle.

How did Number Four die?

A sense of crisis stemming from the unknown made Matt's pores begin to contract. Then, realizing what was happening, he manually muted the squad channel microphone.

In fact,

The other four surviving assassins made the same decision at the same time.

Their mission was assassination; the life or death of their teammates was not important to them, at least not in their top three priorities.

drop--

A few minutes later, the same bad news came from number five, who was closest to number four.

Plop—Plop—

The series of deaths caused Matt's heart rate to accelerate uncontrollably.

He couldn't understand why his teammate could die so silently, as if his life had been taken by the Grim Reaper.

This doesn't make sense.

"call--"

"call----"

Struggling to suppress his chaotic emotions, the assassin took a few deep breaths, then crouched down, raised his gun, and prepared to continue his infiltration towards the teachers' dormitory building.

It must have been Niki who did it.

There must be Niki, who has been freed from the near-death restriction, protecting that madman's safety.

Fortunately, based on the death interval between No. 4 and No. 5, it is highly likely that there is only one Niki protecting the target.

He should still have a chance...

Sizzle—sizzle sizzle—

suddenly!

Just as Matt was comforting himself, the black and white image on the night vision goggles inexplicably started flickering and malfunctioning at a high frequency.

The killer, who had never encountered an instrument malfunction before, instinctively wanted to adjust the parameters of the night vision device.

But he was soon surprised to find that many of the electronic devices on his body were malfunctioning to varying degrees.

huh~~~

A strange, eerie wind brushed against my cheek, rustling the nearby vegetation. In the shadows, I could almost hear the whispers and ethereal laughter of many girls.

It was very close to him, seemingly... right behind him.

"who……"

puff-

Before he could finish speaking, Matt felt a chill on his neck and his vision blurred.

then,

He then saw a very familiar headless body lying on the ground.

on the side,

They were bare feet, covered in mud and dust.

……

……

"Huh...huh..."

Outside the teachers' dormitory building, a disheveled Mihara shuffled along with her tiny, stumbling steps toward the commander's basement.

She won.

However, compared to the first overwhelming victory, Mihara did not gain much advantage in this victory.

When the Inquisition assassin, whose close-combat skills far surpass hers, chooses to take the initiative to defend herself, Mihara has no choice but to use pain sharing to break through the opponent's obstruction and then use a stun gun on herself to kill herself.

Thus, what should have been a physical contest between women turned into a competition of their tolerance for electric shocks.

And so, the cat, which had not been trained for electric shocks, rightfully knelt on the ground at a slight disadvantage, unable to move.

Ding dong——!

The woman, her heart filled with anticipation, trembled as she rang the basement doorbell.

The thought of being able to embrace the commander soon made the woman feel the lingering electric current intensify slightly, a tingling, numb sensation that seemed to emanate from her throat as she moaned.

Ding dong——!

Although... although waking the Commander unnecessarily violates Niki's rules, ... I'm sure her man is thinking of her too.

Ding dong——!

Hehe, I seem to have fallen into a deep sleep. If it's really not possible, let's change it to being intimate after I wake up tomorrow.

During the day, Xuan Yin... If someone knocks on the door, the commander can then pin her behind the door and chat with them...

Hmm...it seems even better.

Ding-dong—ding-dong—ding-dong—!

laugh--

As the alloy door slowly opened towards her, Mihara, lost in her fantasies, was about to squeeze into the room, but what she saw was a woman wrapped in a bath towel, with disheveled hair and a rosy complexion...

Marianne.

Boom! ! !

Like a thunderbolt striking the earth, Mihara, who thought he was the only one who dared to do this, stared blankly at the girl in front of him.

Then, she tilted her head and looked at the corner of the room, at the very messy bed.

"Heh...hehehe...I misjudged you. You're quite capable at such a young age."

Realizing her home had been burgled, the woman lowered her eyelids, a sinister smile curving her lips as she chuckled:

"Since you love playing so much, little sister, how about I teach you a more exciting way to play?"

With that, the stun gun, which was almost out of power, reappeared in Mihara's palm.

……

……

Ding dong——!

Barefoot, the man, freshly stained with blood, hummed a tune from his hometown as he returned to his doorstep.

They say a cigarette after sex is better than being a god.

Although he doesn't smoke, he has never experienced what it's like to be a living god.

But when Phoenix thought about the young girl at home waiting for him to fall asleep together, he decided that giving up this life of bliss might not be so easy.

Ding-dong ding-dong ding-dong—!

The careless commander quickly pressed the doorbell, trying to express his burning passion with the sound.

Ding……

laugh--

The door is open.

However, the scene behind the door exceeded Phoenix's expectations.

Mihara...
