Kaida lay in bed after reaching his house, lost in thought.
'Till now, I was only focusing on getting stronger so that I could live a happy life this time. I was quite happy to get a second chance. My first life was… miserable. I was a burden on my parents; they could have lived happily if they didn't have to pay my constant hospital bills.
Living with constant pain in my whole body was worse. I'm sure Mom and Dad would have been sad after hearing about my death, but it was good for both of them. When I got a second life, no matter if it was in a world where you can be killed just because someone's mood was off, still I was happy to get a second chance.
That's why I wanted to get stronger, so I could live a happy and long life this time. But I think 'living in the moment' is something I have never done in either of my lives. Hahaha.
Yomi is my girlfriend now, right? Should I treat her differently? I never had a girlfriend, and is it even right to have a 8-year-old girlfriend? Even if it is acceptable in this world, we are still children, so we can't do any naughty things. Surely not, but since we already kissed, kissing should be alright, right?'
While Kaida was having such thoughts, Yomi was doing the same.
'I was planning to say this for so long, and I said it in such a way. Who says 'I love you' when they're angry? What will he think about me? And now that we are in a relationship, will we do all those things in the ICHA ICHA novel?'
They both slept that night with a blush on their faces.
The next morning…
"Hey, Kaida."
"Hey, Yomi."
…
… awkward silence.
"Yomi, let's stay like we were before until we grow up. We're just 8. Let's wait until we become adults before doing anything," Kaida said in one breath.
"But we already kissed," Yomi said, looking away.
"Yes… but let's just stop at kissing. We won't do anything else until we're adults, okay?"
"So, kissing is okay?" Yomi asked, her face turning beet red.
"I guess," Kaida thought. 'At least I'm not the only pervert here.'
After agreeing to wait until they were at least physically older than 18 years, they resumed their daily routine.
After a 4-hour long physical exercise session, they went to take missions from the mission assignment desk.
After completing 16 missions for the day, they didn't return to their house but rather went to search for a new one. Without any discussion, it was already decided that they were searching for one house, not two.
For the sake of it, they were searching for a house with 2 bedrooms. After some time, they found a 2 BHK flat ready to move in at 4,000 Ryo. Although the price was the same, this flat was a lot better than their previous house and had a cozy feel to it. They decided on this flat and planned to move in at the end of the month.
This flat, besides having a nice feel, was also in a good location—15 minutes walking distance from the academy, where they had to go continuously to take missions. It also had a training area nearby. Training areas were usually free and anyone could use them until someone booked them for their training, which was much better than some small forests where they used to train.
On the morning of the first day of the next month…
Kaida woke up and made five shadow clones, each assigned to a different chore from cleaning to cooking breakfast, while he completed his morning routine. Yomi woke up after some time and also made two shadow clones to clean her room before she started her morning routine.
After taking care of their bathroom needs and brushing their teeth, they both went to the hall to eat breakfast.
After kissing each other for a good five minutes, they started eating.
"Yomi, I think we should take our training seriously."
"But we are training daily," Yomi replied.
"Yes, but the training we did after eating the soldier pill was many times better than this. All I'm saying is, let's take a four-day break from missions twice a month and train after eating a chakra pill. At the rate we're earning money, we can make 200,000 Ryo a month, which is a lot. We don't need that much. Heck, even 100,000 Ryo is too much for us for now."
"wok, I dwon't …"
"First, eat, then speak," Kaida said.
"Okay. I don't have any problem with this, but where will we get soldier pills?" Yomi asked, filling her mouth with more food.
"Oh! Don't worry about them; they can be arranged at the mission assignment desk. I've seen him giving them to other ninjas."
After finishing their food, they completed their morning exercise, then took a bath and went to take the mission.
"Sir, I would like to buy some soldier pills."
"Why do you want soldier pills?" the mission distributor asked.
"I would like them for training."
"Oh! Okay, which ones do you want?"
"Are there different types of soldier pills?" Kaida asked, confused.
"Soldier pills range between 1,500 Ryo to 50,000 Ryo, depending on the amount of chakra you have and your needs." Seeing that kaida was just a little boy, the distributor, didn't told him about more potent one, which only jonin used
"Sorry sir, but I don't know which one I should choose. Can you please recommend one?" Kaida asked, trying to hide his shock after hearing the price.
"Okay, come here." The distributor placed his hand on Kaida's chest, trying to sense his chakra. Needless to say, he was surprised by the amount. 'How does such a small boy have so much chakra? That's why Lord Hokage shows him favor. This boy is surely a genius.'
"Seeing your chakra, you'll need at least the one costing 3,000 Ryo, though the 2,000 Ryo one will work too, but the exhaustion will be worse."
"Okay sir, I would like two soldier pills then."
"Alright, wait a minute."
He went in and came out with a box containing two soldier pills. Kaida took the pills as well as the mission, deciding to take the soldier pill tomorrow in a fully active state.
"How much is the booking fee for Training Area 33 for three days?" Kaida asked.
"It's 10,000 Ryo."
"Then I would like to book it for three days starting tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll have the paperwork ready by the time you return from your mission."
Kaida and Yomi completed 16 missions, did their training, and then went to sleep.
