GUIDE
NTE romance: how bonds, dates and affinity work
Yes — NTE has a soft-romance bond system. Every character has a 10-level bond track, and level 10 pays up to 80 Annulith per character.
How to raise bond levels
- Gifts — up to 10 per character per day. Gifts they like give more affinity.
- Bond quests for each character.
- Time together — walking (with hand-holding), driving and Home Time.
- Date spots — the Ferris wheel, the cinema, flower fields and rooftops during meteor showers.
- Picking the flirtier dialogue options.
What each level unlocks
| Bond level | Unlock |
|---|---|
| 2 | Car ride invitations |
| 4 | “Familiar” — can move into your home for Home Time |
| 6 | “Close Friend” — hugs, bond items, special voice lines |
| 10 | Up to 80 Annulith, cosmetics and decor |
Who you can romance
All launch characters except Aurelia, whose bond is capped at level 2. That includes Mint, Nanally, Adler, Daffodil, Hathor, Jiuyuan, Baicang, Fadia, Edgar, Skia, Haniel, Chiz and Sakiri. Blackbird (Version 1.4) also has hand-holding and flying interactions.
Tip
Bond level 10 is a reliable source of Annulith. Spread your daily gifts across characters to collect those rewards faster. Characters need a home to move into — see housing.
