Such a concept does not exist. I mean your service is a system
service itself, so what is that even supposed to mean that the service
shall start 5s after it already started? But even if you mean to say
"5s after all other services", then think how that falls apart if you
have multiple services declaring that.

hence, in systemd there's no concept for that. Instead you are
supposed to properly order your units and declare the exact ordering
you rely on and not less nor more.
