Yakumo's face fell, but then he smiled, like a madman. He liked difficult challenges, and the more difficult the task, the more it would ignite the passion in his heart.

"Ha ha ha ha…"

Yakumo could no longer suppress his laughter and burst into tears.

Back home, Yakumo changed his clothes, went into his bedroom, and after a moment's thought, hid in the closet. At the same time, his shadow clone, who was practicing ninjutsu, stopped what he was doing and sneaked into the shadows to begin guarding the surroundings.

Inside the wardrobe, Yakumo brought up the game interface.

Currently, there are six free attribute points remaining.

Constitution +4, Strength +2.

In the end, Yakumo decided to break the balance in attribute point allocation and put more points into Constitution, striving to reach fifty points as soon as possible to improve Palm Healing Technique, all for... Mori Masako.

Warm energy filled his entire body, gradually strengthening Yakumo's cells and organs, while bringing an extremely comfortable and pleasant feeling, like warm sunshine falling on his body surface, while a gentle breeze blew in the air, as if every inch of his skin was exuding the scent of happiness.

Seven minutes later, Yakumo opened his eyes.

Open the game interface immediately.

With his strength soaring once again, Yakumo emerged satisfied from the wardrobe, awaiting Mori Masako's arrival, and proceeded with his usual full-body warming and nourishing treatment.

A few days later, on Thursday, September 1st.

Yakumo, lying in bed, opened her eyes, sat up, and immediately opened the game interface to check out the new quarterly rewards.

Blood nourishes the strong and helps them progress.

Mission objective: Defeat Blood Robe Priest Twilight.

Mission Description: Destroy evil with the fist of justice!

Task Reward: 20000 Gold Coins, 4 Attribute Points

Bonus reward: Grandmaster Breakthrough Scroll.

Yakumo rubbed his eyes, finally realizing that the quarterly reward missions had also been reduced. What could be predicted now was that attribute points would become more and more precious as the game progressed.

"The road ahead is long and arduous, and we must continue to strive."

Yakumo cheered himself up.

Limited Monthly Edition

Task description: Prepare a birthday surprise for Masako Mori.

Task Rewards: 3000 gold coins, 1 attribute point.

Yakumo remembered that September 9th was Mori Masako's birthday. Since the mission had already been issued, Mori Masako's birthday had to be unique and unforgettable... that would be enough.

"The more people, the more lively it will be."

"We need to prepare birthday gifts and a birthday cake."

"This cake is best made by hand..."

Yakumo finalized the mission in his mind, changed his clothes, and went to the kitchen on the first floor to enjoy the breakfast prepared by his shadow clone.

Another mission involved killing the Blood-Robed Priest Twilight, which reminded him of the sprightly old man among the members of the Undying Cult he encountered in the Land of Soup.

"So, it really is a persistent ghost..."

After the meal, Yakumo began to proceed according to the plan.

Time flew by, and it was Masako Mori's birthday.

Good morning, Masako Mori.

Good morning, Yakumo.

Masako Mori stood there, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Come on, let's go to school... What are you standing there for?"

Yakumo tried his best to appear puzzled.

"Oh, okay..."

A look of disappointment flashed in Masako Mori's eyes.

This was just the beginning of her disappointment. Soon, Masako Mori discovered that not only Yakumo, but also Obito Uchiha and Rin Nohara, whom she had the most contact with, and Kakashi didn't remember her birthday. On this day, her heart gradually sank to the bottom.

"Am I... just like air, completely dispensable?"

At night, Yakumo performed treatment on Mori Masako as usual.

Mori Masako's face was devoid of any smile, but when she saw Yakumo's somewhat pale face, she still managed to force a smile that looked even worse than crying.

"Come on, I'll take you home."

Yakumo issued an order to leave.

"it is good…"

Masako Mori responded, feeling very wronged.

The two walked into the courtyard. Masako Mori had her head down and was clearly in a bad mood, while Yakumo showed a smile.

The next moment, the melodious sound of the piano mixed with the soft whistling of the bagpipes formed a cheerful and relaxed background, and Yakumo slowly began to sing.

Happy birthday!

Masako Mori paused for a moment, then turned around in surprise. The shadow clone who had been practicing ninjutsu in the corner had returned to its original form; it was Kakashi Hatake, holding a bunch of purple chrysanthemums and singing "Happy Birthday" as well.

Suddenly, Rin Nohara appears and begins to sing a cappella.

Under Masako Mori's excited gaze, Yakumo returned to the house and brought out a huge wooden box.

Happy birthday!

Everyone sang together.

"This is a birthday present, you can open it now."

Yakumo pointed to the wooden box, and Mori Masako immediately jumped for joy.

"Shh..."

A few seconds later, the wooden crate was opened.

Under Masako's surprised gaze, Obito Uchiha slapped the small cake in his hand onto Masako's face.

"Haha, happy birthday!"

Obito Uchiha laughed wildly, venting the humiliation he had suffered at the hands of Masako Mori over the past six months. Yes, humiliation. He had been injured, cried, laughed, cried, cried... in short, cried many times.

In Yakumo's original plan, Obito Uchiha would also appear using the Transformation Jutsu. Unfortunately, Obito's Transformation Jutsu was terrible, so the plan had to be changed... He was chosen to be the one to ambush Masako Mori. Originally, this job was intended for Naiball.

Of course, Obito Uchiha readily accepted this!

He even strongly insisted on using a large cake, saying that it didn't matter whether it was a cake or not; he mainly wanted to take a picture of Masako Mori, even if it was just for a moment.

Masako Mori had cake smeared all over her face, but she wasn't angry. She even forgot to wipe it off immediately. At that moment, her heart was filled with overwhelming joy.

It turns out she wasn't just some insignificant person; her friends remembered her birthday... and even prepared a surprise for her many days in advance.

Accompanied by melodious and cheerful piano music, Masako Mori quietly wiped the cake off her face, and at the same time wiped away a tear from the corner of her eye.

Yakumo's shadow clone presented a giant cake, adorned with wishes written on it in fruit and cream...

Happy birthday, Masako Mori! May you live a long and healthy life.

"This cake was made by Yakumo herself..."

Nohara Rin said, squinting her eyes.

"All of this was planned by Yakumo."

Obito Uchiha added with a smile.

Mori Masako stepped forward and hugged Yakumo tightly, her eyes red with joy and emotion. Nohara Rin and Uchiha Obito, standing nearby, smiled with relief.

"It's what I should do..."

Looking at the glistening tears in Masako Mori's eyes, Yakumo couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

Although Yakumo always remembered Mori Masako's birthday, he would never have gone to such lengths to prepare a surprise for her if the game system hadn't happened to release a mission.

The moment Mori Masako hugged Yakumo,

Monthly limited edition, done!

Yakumo took out the barbecue ingredients he had prepared in advance, set up a barbecue grill in the yard, and ate cake at the same time. Of course, most of the cake ended up in Naiqiu's stomach, and nothing was wasted.

Beef, mutton, mushrooms, and grilled, dripping chicken wings, paired with refreshing and sweet plum juice, were enjoyed by the group. They ate to their hearts' content and then started playing games around the fire.

During this time, Yakumo sensed Mori's chakra. He secretly came to investigate and found his daughter happily eating barbecue to celebrate her birthday. He didn't show up to ruin the atmosphere and simply climbed over the wall to escape.

Occasionally, drops of oil would fall onto the charcoal fire, making a crackling sound. The dim firelight from the sky made their faces appear rosy, and the environment became somewhat stuffy, with mosquitoes swarming around them.

"Shh..."

Kakashi swung his White Fang, his body enveloped in lightning, and actually cut down the rapidly flying mosquitoes. After several attacks, the sound of mosquitoes flying around could no longer be heard.

At nine o'clock in the evening, everyone dispersed.

"Thank you, Yakumo," Masako Mori said before leaving.

"You're welcome."
