Akira is 12 years old

Day after day passed, in the blink of an eye, it was April 24th. The day Akira would use this year's Sign-in ration.

In this span of time, nothing major happened. Going to school, playing basketball, dating lots of girls, and other youth activities.

There were no Devils, Angels, Fallen Angels, and other supernatural beings, to come provoke him like in Xianxia novels, where there were always random Young Masters who would come to make trouble.

Simply put, Akira lives the peaceful life he always wanted.

6 p.m.

In the locker room of the basketball club.

"I'm going first." Akira waved his hand at his basketball teammates.

Kise: "Akira-cchi, are you going home already? Not coming with us for ramen?"

Aomine: "Stop it, Kise, Nakano already said he's not coming."

Murasakibara: "Haaa... Tired, why do we still need practice, it's a waste of time."

Midorima: "My horoscope's lucky item today is an action figure gundam, nothing bad will happen."

Akashi: "Is there something you want to do?"

Looking at the Kise no Sedai members in front of him, Akira said with a smile:

"Yeah, I have important business that I can't miss. Bye everyone, and you too, Kuroko."

After saying goodbye to everyone, he left.

Before leaving, Akira didn't forget to wave his hand at Kuroko whose presence was super thin.

"Uwah, Kuroko is here, this always surprises me."

Aomine almost had a heart attack when he realized Kuroko was standing beside him.

"I've been there ever since." Kuroko said flatly, he was used to not being noticed by anyone.

"How is it only Akira-cchi who always finds Kuroko." Kise was curious.

Midorima pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said:

"Um, I'm also curious, is there any special trick."

"I'm hungry, quickly change clothes, I want to eat."

Murasakibara rubbed his stomach which was rumbling.

...

Opening the locker, Akira was happy not to find another love letter.

"Ever since Shouko and I showed affection in public, there are no more girls who put love letters in my locker, that's a good thing." Akira said while replacing Uwabaki with normal shoes.

Closing the locker door, he walked towards the school gate.

"The cherry blossoms have fallen..."

Akira saw a row of cherry blossom trees along the road, which now only left branches, different from before which looked very beautiful.

"Hmm? Shouko?"

Afternoon sun, falling right on Shouko's body, the boundary between dark and light. Her skin in the evening sun looks crystal clear, especially the lips that have been smeared with lip balm of an unknown brand, which shine in the sun. The color is so juicy that it looks pink and attractive, Akira never gets bored, even though he has tasted Shouko's lips many times.

Shouko waited in front of the gate, seeing Akira just standing still in place, she walked over.

"Do I look pretty?"

"Um, so pretty."

Akira subconsciously answered Shouko's question.

A blush appeared on Shouko's face after receiving Akira's honest compliment.

"Ahem, why is Shouko still not home?"

Akira cleared his throat, changing the subject. Then the two walked out of the school gate, and Shouko immediately hugged Akira's arm.

"I'm waiting for Akira." Shouko didn't beat around the bush, and spoke directly.

"What are you waiting for? Wait a minute, don't hug me, I've just been sweating, my body stinks."

Akira tried to let go of Shouko's arm, but the girl refused to let go.

"I don't care, I like everything about Akira, I don't hate the smell of your sweat."

After saying this, Shouko blushed.

"Forget it, if you don't mind, I shouldn't bother banning you."

Seeing Shouko's blushing face, Akira felt that this girlfriend of his was too cute.

"Oh right, this is for you."

Shouko took out a box wrapped in wrapping paper and ribbon, then handed the gift box to Akira.

"Happy birthday, Akira."

"Thank you so much, Shouko, you never once missed my birthday."

Akira happily received the gift from Shouko, looking left and right, after confirming that there was no one else, he kissed his girlfriend on the cheek, then he said:

"I'm glad to have a girlfriend as caring as you."

Touching the cheek where Akira kissed her, a sweet smile appeared on Shouko's face, obviously she was happy that Akira called herself his girlfriend.

"If only Akira didn't want to have a harem..."

Shouko's good mood goes down considering Akira is an unfaithful man.

"Cough Cough... Don't bring this up, let's go home soon, the sun is already setting."

Akira pretended to cough, and pulled Shouko to the train station.

...

Standing in front of the large gate, Akira said lightly:

"Had reached."

"Shouldn't you stop by for tea first?" asked Shouko.

"Maybe next time, it's getting dark, I should go home soon."

Akira politely declined Shouko's invitation.

"See you later, Shouko."

"See you later, Akira."

Akira waved his hand, and after making sure Shouko had really entered his home area, he turned to leave.

The reason Akira took Shouko home was because he was worried that Shouko might be kidnapped by her father's business enemy.

Shouko comes from a wealthy family background, her father is a successful businessman, and her mother is a famous clothing designer. In short, she is a literal Ojou-sama.

During the 5th grade of elementary school, Shouko was almost kidnapped by her father's business rival. Luckily, she was with Akira at the time of the incident, and the kidnappers failed to kidnap her.

Akira's relationship with Shouko's parents becomes close, also because of the kidnapping incident.

At first, Shouko will continue her education at Fumizuki Academy according to her father's wish. But her father changes his mind and sends his daughter to Teiko Junior High School, so she can be with Akira.

"Chamber, show me a location without surveillance cameras." Akira said while opening maps navigation.

"Understood, Sir."

The Chamber displays the nearest route without surveillance cameras on the cellphone screen.

Akira followed the guide prepared by Chamber, he was too lazy to take the train again, so he planned to use [Hiraishin no Jutsu] to the location he had marked near the apartment.

"Here."

Looking around making sure there were no people, Akira's figure disappeared like black lightning.

...

"Any packages?"

Downstairs in the apartment, Akira sees a package in the Nakano Family's post office.

"It turned out to be a souvenir from Shion... The delivery service was terrible, it only arrived today."

Reading the return address, Akira remembers that Shion once said she would send a souvenir from Okinawa.

Carrying the package in his hands, Akira went to the elevator, pressed the button for the highest floor, and waited for the elevator to arrive.

After more than 5 minutes, Akira got out of the elevator, and headed for the apartment room.

As he opened the door, he was greeted with a loud pop of party poppers.

"Happy birthday, Akira."

Ichika, Nino, Miku, Yotsuba, and Itsuki, each of them holding a party popper. And as a result, Akira's head was filled with colorful little papers.

Behind the quintuplets, Rena and Maruo stood watching with smiles on their faces.

"This..."

Akira was speechless, actually, he wasn't surprised at all, he already realized they were all behind the door, because of his frightening perception.

"Ehhh... Akira-chan didn't react like I thought." Ichika said in a disappointed tone.

"I told you, doing this every year should no longer surprise Akira." Nino said as she put her hand in front of his chest.

"Don't bring this up, let's eat the cake." Yotsuba changed the subject.

"Cake."

Itsuki's eyes lit up, as if the person celebrating the birthday was her.

Miku didn't speak, her bangs covering her eyes and a faint blush on her cheeks. She had prepared a special gift for Akira on his birthday.

"Like Yotsuba-Nee said, let's eat the cake, Itsuki-Nee looks like she's drooling." Akira said with a smile.

"I-I'm not drooling!"

Itsuki rubbed his mouth, and rebutted.

Then Akira, along with his five older sisters, father and mother, sat down at the dining table, which was filled with his favorite food and a birthday cake with the number 12 candle, indicating his age.

After everyone was seated, Ichika and the others clapped and then sang the birthday song.

"Happy Birthday to You🎶"

"Happy Birthday to You🎶"

"Happy birthday Akira🎶"

"Happy Birthday to You🎶"

"From good friends and true,🎶"

"From old friends and new,🎶"

"May good luck go with you,🎶"

"And happiness too🎶"

Akira closed his eyes while mentioning his wish in front of his birthday cake.

(I hope to return victorious against members of the Super Dimensional Guild.)

When the song ends, he blows out the candles.
