BXBX NOVEL Chapter 561.2
Chapter 561.2
I’ve seen Layla showing them magic while she was playing with them. Sometimes, we also showed the children magic at Layla’s request.
I see, so that was part of the education in the Sheep Horn Clan. I thought she was doing it because Riou and Sakuya enjoyed it.
Well, I guess that also applied. When Layla was looking after them, her face actually looked quite goofy.
The face of the perfect, flawless genius Layla when she becomes all smitten was wonderful.
“In some families where the occupation is that of a warrior, they start taking their children out for hunting just a few months after they are born. They do this to make them understand that life and death are a part of everyday life, and to get them used to the atmosphere of battle and blood. In Lyuu’s War Wolf Clan, they do this with the boys from an early age.” (Layla)
…I guess we do live in a dangerous world.
It was a barbaric custom, but it was necessary for survival.
“Huh… did you call me?” (Lyuu)At that moment, Lyuu, who had been taking a nap in the next room, peeked out with a yawn.
“Good morning, Lyuu. You’re already awake? You can still sleep if you’d like to.” (Yuki)
“No, I was just a little sleepy, but I’m full of energy now! So, what were you talking about?” (Lyuu)
“Ah, we were discussing how long before we should teach Riou and Sakuya, and especially Sakuya, how to fight.” (Yuki)
I also told her about the events up to this point.
“I see… well, he certainly is like Husband, as expected, of Husband’s child.” (Lyuu)
Lyuu had the same reaction as the two of them.
“Well, my Clan certainly does something like that. Of course, we take the utmost care to ensure children’s safety, but we teach our children from a young age that to live, they will inevitably have to fight, and that living means taking the lives of others to a certain extent. I remember that from my own childhood as well.” (Lyuu)
It was cruel, but it was the truth.
“I see… Well, we’ll think about when to start teaching them swordsmanship and magic later. These kids are just settling down, so for now, let’s all just go on a trip!” (Yuki)
“Oh, that’s good. Nell said she’d be able to take a holiday soon too. And Illuna’s school… well, I’m sure they’ll be flexible.” (Layla)
“A trip! That sounds great. Where are we going?” (Lyuu)
“If it’s a human country, I actually want to go to the Erlin Confederation for a while, so I’d like to go there. If it’s a demon world, then the Demon King’s Royal Capital. We’ve never been there together before. There’s also the option of going to the Beastmen Village to show Riou to Lyuu’s family. It’s a bit far though.” (Yuki)
Erlin Confederation
: A country that developed airships and used them in the Great War, and rose to fame in one fell swoop. I’ve always wanted to go there.“Oh, I’m glad you’re thinking of me, but it’s okay if we go to my village a little later. I’ve already met my father and mother, so it’s fine if we go to my village after Riou has grown up a little more.” (Lyuu)
“I see… then that’s what we’ll do. What do you think, Lefi, Layla?” (Yuki)
“If it’s okay for us to go to the Beastmen Village later, I don’t mind at all.” (Lefi)
“You already have a [Gate] connected to the Demon Realm, so if we’d like to, we can make a day trip to the Demon Realm’s Royal Capital, right? If we want to go on a long trip, we can go to the Erlin Confederation. How about checking with Nell and the girls to see what they think about it?” (Layla)
***
“Yes, of course, that’s good.” (Nell)
“I agree with that as well! I’ll tell the others!” (Illuna)
“Alright, with that decided, Riou, Sakuya, let’s go on a trip, a trip! Let’s see many things!” (Yuki)
When I said that, they looked at me and replied “Euuu, baaauu” and “Oou, oou”. They’re so cute.
