Intimate?

Although the rewards he obtained from signing in were making him stronger and stronger, he still desperately wanted to upgrade the Scythe of the Death God quickly; only then could his strength take another massive leap.

There hadn't been any enemies these past few days, and he had only used his weapon two or three times.

Even so, my strength is already formidable. After all, being able to sign in twice a day is quite substantial.

At this rate, it won't be long before my strength rivals that of a Kage-level figure.

Uchiha Matsuzaki thought to himself as he looked out the window.

Today really is a good day. Not only did I teach Uchiha Kawazo a lesson, but I also obtained the Sage Body.

It seems I should celebrate today.

Just like that, time slowly passed, and soon it was time for school to end. When school let out, the teacher announced that tomorrow would be a day off, and formal classes would resume the day after.

After parting ways with his friends, Uchiha Matsuzaki stood at the school gate waiting for his younger sister.

"Matsuzaki-kun, why haven't you gone home yet?"

Chestnut Snow walked up to Uchiha Matsuzaki's side and asked.

"Oh, it's you, Chestnut Snow! I'm waiting for my sister here. What's the matter? Is there something you need?"

Uchiha Matsuzaki smiled.

"Our team wants to go on a picnic in the suburbs during this break. I came to ask if you'd like to join us."

"So that's it. That works for me. I don't have anything planned for tomorrow anyway, so I'll go with you all."

Chestnut Snow was very happy after hearing Uchiha Matsuzaki's reply.

"Great, it's a deal then. Let's meet at the school gate at 10:00 AM tomorrow. I'm heading off now, bye-bye."

"Oh, and don't call me by my full name anymore. Just call me Zixue."

"Bye-bye!"

After Uchiha Matsuzaki said goodbye to Chestnut Snow, a very soft little hand suddenly appeared from behind him and tapped his shoulder.

"Big brother, who was that older sister just now? She even let you call her Zixue, such an intimate nickname."

Uchiha Ke said with a mischievous smile as she watched Chestnut Snow's retreating figure.

"Oh, it's you, Ke. That girl is a transfer student in my class. She's also my friend!"

Uchiha Matsuzaki breathed a sigh of relief and said.

Although this explanation was perfectly logical, it didn't seem that way in Uchiha Ke's eyes.

"A friend? I don't think so. The way that girl looked at you was unusual... and 'Zixue'..."

Before Uchiha Ke could finish, Uchiha Matsuzaki tapped her on the head.

"I said friend means friend. Why are you being so annoying today? It seems I need to teach you a lesson." Uchiha Matsuzaki said with a laugh.

Seeing that the situation was turning against her, Uchiha Ke made a face and ran ahead with her schoolbag on her back.

Intimate? Why do I feel like it's just a nickname between good friends? Uchiha Matsuzaki pondered.

Just like that, the siblings arrived at their front door while bickering and playing around.

"Alright, alright, I'll stop teasing you. Don't worry, I definitely won't tell Mom about Zixue. I'll keep your secret."

Uchiha Ke said with a giggle before walking into the house.

Seeing his sister act this way, he smiled helplessly and then followed her inside.

As the siblings entered the house, they were greeted by the aroma of food. They hadn't expected their mother to have already prepared a table full of a very sumptuous lunch.

Today was their first day of school, and their mother knew they would be exhausted, so she had prepared all these delicious dishes in advance.
