"Hey, Kurenai, come to my room. I've got something good to show you." Yuki Yuichi sneaked around as he led Yuhi Kurenai into his room.
"Ah!"
Yuhi Kurenai had been watering the flowers by the window when he suddenly whisked her into the room.
Taking in the scent in the air, Yuhi Kurenai's cheeks flushed as she looked at Yuki Yuichi and asked softly, "Yuichi, what are you going to show me?"
"Here, this is for you." Yuki Yuichi fiddled around in the storage cabinet beside his bed for a while, then found a small, exquisite-looking picture frame.
The frame had glass on both sides, with a sheet of white paper sandwiched between them. It looked rather rough.
The frame was only about the size of an ordinary person's palm. Curious, Yuhi Kurenai blinked her big eyes at Yuki Yuichi. "What is it?"
"Why is there a piece of paper in the middle?"
At Yuhi Kurenai's question, Yuki Yuichi grinned, took her small hand, and ran with her to the window. He held the frame up to the sun.
Under the sunlight, Yuhi Kurenai's portrait appeared on the white paper, which had looked rough just moments earlier.
"Well? You like it, right?"
"It's your birthday today, and I've been preparing this gift for ages!"
"Mm..." Yuhi Kurenai gazed at his red hair, her cheeks flushed as she nodded.
Yuhi Shinku, who had appeared at the doorway without anyone noticing, twitched at the corner of his eye, a nameless fury rising in his heart.
That brat did nothing but court his daughter!
Every time he saw his daughter gazing at the little punk with stars in her eyes, he wanted to slap himself.
Yuki Yuichi's mother had died in childbirth, and his father had sacrificed himself to save him during a mission, leaving behind a one-year-old Yuki Yuichi.
Yuhi Shinku happened to have a one-year-old daughter, so he had taken Yuki Yuichi home and raised them together.
He'd figured that raising one child was no different from raising two.
But he hadn't expected that ever since the brat learned to talk, he'd been trying to woo his little cabbage.
At first, he'd innocently assumed they were just close because they'd grown up together.
It wasn't until his little cabbage told him she wanted to marry Yuki Yuichi that he finally realized what was going on.
This was a textbook case of inviting a wolf into the house.
Yuki Yuichi was a transmigrator, but his grades were nothing to write home about.
A Mobile Diamond Body had tilted him in a match at the arena. Just as he was about to start rubbing his head, he blinked and became a one-year-old baby.
Before he could get used to his new surroundings, someone had held him and told him his father was dead.
He'd felt guilty about that for a long time.
It was probably because he'd transmigrated that his family in this life had died.
Fortunately, Yuhi Shinku had adopted him, and he'd also awakened the Achievement System.
As long as he completed an achievement, he could obtain a ninja template from the Naruto mobile game in his previous life.
But the achievements were random, and there were no hints. He could only figure them out slowly on his own.
Once he was old enough to talk, he successfully unlocked an achievement.
[Achievement unlocked: Childhood Sweetheart.]
[If you want a wife, you should raise her from childhood!]
[Reward: Uzumaki Naruto (Ninja Student)]
[Uzumaki Naruto]
[Skills: Paint-Splashing, Clone Strike (may fail), Sexy Jutsu.]
[I'll make everyone acknowledge me, hehehe...]
[Skill 1: Paint-Splashing: Your painting skills with a bucket of paint will become even stronger. But be careful—you might get beaten for it.]
[Skill 2: Clone Strike: You can summon a Schrödinger's clone to uppercut your opponent and send them flying. But be careful—this is a Schrödinger's clone, so there's a fifty percent chance you'll summon a clone with its butt sticking out.]
[Skill 3: Sexy Jutsu: The effect is exactly what the name suggests. You can transform into a naked beauty or handsome man to seduce your opponent. It's an incredibly powerful ninjutsu. Even the legendary Sannin, the Third Hokage—hailed as the strongest Hokage—the Konoha Technician, and Princess Kaguya have all been controlled by this technique.]
[Special Talent: Uzumaki Bloodline]
That was the power of his cheat.
Besides the three skills that came with a template, it also granted him the bloodline associated with that template.
For example, the first Childhood Sweetheart achievement had given him the Seventh template. Along with those three skills, it had also granted him the bloodline of the Uzumaki Clan.
He didn't have the same powerful bloodline as the Fourth Hokage, so his hair had gradually turned red.
"Yuichi, I like you the most~" Yuhi Kurenai hugged the frame, her cheeks flushed as she blinked her big red eyes.
At the door, Yuhi Shinku clenched his fists. That damn brat!
Just as Yuki Yuichi was about to speak, Yuhi Shinku walked in with a dark look on his face and punched him on the head.
"You brat, don't lead Kurenai astray!"
As he spoke, Yuhi Shinku led Yuhi Kurenai downstairs. "The food's ready. Hurry up and come eat!"
"Oh, got it, Uncle Shinku." Yuki Yuichi hugged his head and watched Yuhi Shinku take his future wife downstairs. He thought viciously, One of these days, I'll get Kurenai to make you cough up some cash!
There were no women in the Yuhi Family, so Yuhi Shinku had raised both Yuki Yuichi and Yuhi Kurenai, playing the roles of both father and mother.
He'd also become a fantastic cook in the process.
At the dinner table, Yuhi Kurenai served the redhead food right in front of her father and said, "Dad's cooking is really good."
"Mm-hmm, Uncle's a great cook!" Yuki Yuichi said, grinning at Yuhi Shinku and giving him a thumbs-up.
Seeing Yuki Yuichi's gesture, Yuhi Shinku was momentarily dazed. That gesture... It made him think of a youthful fellow wearing a green jumpsuit.
Exactly the same!
But Yuhi Shinku quickly came back to his senses. Seeing Yuki Yuichi and his daughter wolfing down their food, he couldn't help smiling.
This was nice. This kind of life.
"You two start school tomorrow."
"Don't cause trouble at school." Yuhi Shinku said this as he looked at Yuki Yuichi, who was busy eating.
"Why did you have to look right at me when you said that?!"
Feeling Yuhi Shinku's gaze, Yuki Yuichi protested indignantly.
"Who doesn't know that I, Yuki Yuichi, am the handsomest young man for miles around?"
"Heh." Yuhi Shinku chuckled coldly. He wasn't worried about Yuhi Kurenai.
Kurenai had a gentle nature, just like her mother. She was meek and had never caused trouble.
The brat, on the other hand, had shown a talent for getting into trouble as soon as he could run around freely at the age of two.
At two, he'd already be flicking the little birdies of newborn babies in other people's homes.
At three, he'd sneak out and use his Jonin title to buy things all over town on credit, putting his own name down on every tab.
After he began learning chakra extraction at four, there was no stopping him.
It was like he'd unblocked all his meridians. The kid had an unbelievable amount of energy and caused trouble everywhere.
He'd even take Kurenai to Kage Rock and pee on the Third Hokage's stone monument.
He'd calmed down a lot at five, after meeting a youthful fellow in a green jumpsuit and starting to train with him.
But he still caused some kind of mischief every few days.
He was a little demon through and through.
"Just you wait!"
"I'll show you how powerful I am!" Yuki Yuichi stood up and shouted. He'd spent years pretending to be a mischievous kid and running around, trying to trigger achievements.
He still hadn't triggered any, but he'd become a lot more youthful.
"Feel the pain! How many floors must one bag of rice carry?!"
