The Path of Growth from Zero

[This story will switch to reverse VIP on February 27, 2023. The reverse VIP chapters will start with Chapter 24.] [The parallel-world story Raising Jing and Rei Together has started. It's a different little star! Come check it out!] Beichuan Xing stayed up late studying advanced mathematics during exam week and fell asleep. When he woke up, he had fallen into a lower-dimensional world and become an unfortunate first-grade elementary school student who had died young. He had planned to struggle along quietly and survive in his alternate-dimensional family, but one day a golden-haired boy fell from the sky and gave him a concussion. Thus began a journey of raising a child that he had never imagined. Along the way, Beichuan Xing learned what people mean when they say time is a butcher's knife, and that some people's talents are innate. Little Rei: pitiful, adorable, a little tsundere, and a straight man. Grown-up Amuro: scheming, long-winded, a gifted actor, and built like a tank. Little Hiro: obedient, quiet, a little melancholic, and a warm-hearted boy. Grown-up Midorikawa: gentle, stubbly, full of justice, and something of a housekeeper. Beichuan Xing: I don't know if something went wrong with my guide to raising them... Otherwise, how could the difference be so huge?! Everyone else (relieved): You finally noticed. * A story about saving the Police Academy crew. No CP in the main story; the bonus chapters pair an original character, Suzuki Tsukasa. * A coming-of-age story spanning twenty-two years. Extremely slow to warm up. Everyday life, no logic, just lighthearted sweetness. * The daughter is an expert at repeatedly swinging between gloomy and healing moods. There is one-sided affection. * Since the story is quite long, the general structure is as follows: The Flowing Light volume covers everyday life before joining the organization, with a slow pace and a few hints of what's to come. The Surging Waves and Raging Tides volumes cover preparations after joining the organization and the main story of the good guys gathering. The Rising Clouds volume marks a new beginning and includes a few bonus chapters. * February 24, 2022 Theme: Give the future gentleness and hope
