Chapter 4: fifth birthday

Words : 662 Updated : Sep 17th, 2025

Years passed, and Silva was now five. He had grown up to be the perfect anime Isekai protagonist—the young genius who learned to walk and talk early and was already reading tons of books. His parents, though, didn't let him out of the house much, and the reason was because he was too unusual—his abilities and other stuff. Not to mention the fact that he didn't even look like them with his hair color and all that. All this had slowly made Silva detach from society, but he couldn't care less; he was happily living his days with the numerous books his dad had bought him. His level had risen by so much, and so had his skills, though he hadn't used them for much, but the 10x effect was raising him through the levels easily. Currently, his stats looked like this: **Name:** Silva **Race:** Human (50%), Dark Dragon (50%) **Legacy:** Dark Dragon Legacy (Awakened) **Magical Affinities:** Summoning, Darkness, Abyss Magic **Mana:** 120000 **Exp:** 200/700 **SP:** 5000 **Level:** 7 **Strength:** 40 **Defense:** 30 **Speed:** 50 **Agility:** 50 As soon as he stepped out, his sister sprang up from the side and grabbed hold of Silva. "I've been waiting for a while now; Mum and Dad have made a birthday breakfast for you," she said in a jolly tone. "Lia, you seem more happy about it than I am," Silva said. "Well, that's because I'll get to feed you. I'll make sure you eat a whole lot. And also, I helped Mum out to make some of the food; I am eager for you to try them out," she said eagerly, pulling him to move. "I can feed myself, there is no need for you to feed me," Silva said. "Not happening; I'll die of depression if I miss this chance," she retorted. 'What does a six-year-old even know about depression?' Silva thought. He knew his sister and what she was like, and the fact that she would not allow him to resist until she had her way, so he gave in and walked to the dining room with her. The whole family was seated there waiting for Silva, the table filled with all sorts of food that they would normally not cook. But since it was his fifth birthday, they had to do it. His two brothers, Quin, the eldest, and Mike, the second, were seated as well. When Mike saw Lia pulling Silva like that, a frown formed on his face. Silva noticed the frown; he knew that this issue would escalate one day, but he really didn't care. He didn't have the parental love he wanted in his past life because of his parents' jobs. Also, he didn't have siblings, and as such, was alone. But in this world, he had a sister that loved him so much—so much that it was bordering on what was normal and what was not. Though she wasn't really his sister even in this world, he had come to accept her and all of them as his family. He just prayed that Mike wouldn't destroy all that out of anger. Just like she said, Lia fed Silva despite him wanting to refuse. He didn't understand why, but even though he was ten times as strong as her, for some reason, he couldn't fight back. The scene made his mother and father smile. Quin didn't care; he still had his emotionless face, but Mike was seething and trying to hide it with food. After they ate the birthday breakfast, Lia and her mum took the dishes away while the boys remained at the table with their father. "So now that you are five, what do you want to do? It is at this time that most people start choosing paths that will fit them," his father asked him. Silva thought for a moment, then answered him.
