When Leiah went into labor again, things in the house weren't that tense anymore. The third is the charm, or so they say. As such, she already had experience giving birth, and nothing major happened. A new member of the family arrived… another girl. The male faction of the family finally had been outnumbered.
In any case, while Dana had short curly red hair, the new girl had a bit more straight red-brown hair. A mix between Roan and Leiah. Just like before, Roan spent days celebrating.
Regardless, the new girl was called Keinara… at that point in time, Rain had given up on expecting his mother not to use difficult names. In any case, Keinara became Kei in Rain's mind. Kei was born a bit thin, but she was bigger than Dana when she was born, so it was probably fine. By the way, Rain was four years old, and it seemed like no one cared about his age or birthday party, not even him. A new kid always showed up around the time, after all.
In any case, at least Rain was living a fulfilling life, and he was making progress. While he couldn't summon a Fireball, his mana bullets could pierce walls, and he was holding back since he focused on control and he didn't add any spin to them.
Rain was also able to create a minor Spiritual Potion. While he didn't sell it, he tested it and confirmed its effectiveness. It took some time for him to produce and for mana to become part of the water. Still, it was fine since he could make the potion and drink himself and repeat the process for the experience. That was one of the reasons he reached level sixty in the human path that fast when it should take at least twelve years.
"I heard that dungeons are a thing in this world, but dungeon breaks aren't; monsters in the human territory are hard to find as well," Rain thought. "Adventurers don't live their lives only for fighting. I guess I am a bit crazy for planning to do that."
Recently, Rain thought that it would be a good idea to learn some healing magic and start training harshly with his body. The more he trains, the tougher he will get. The more he uses healing magic to recover, the better it will become… two birds, one stone. Still, he didn't see a book with that kind of ability yet.
"Healing potions are easier to obtain, and their effects are almost instantaneous, but I guess an alchemist boxer would be a weird combination," Rain thought and then sighed.
"Let's play horse, Reiinn," Dana said.
It seemed that Dana could sense when her brother was having those monologues and had the intention to stop them. As usual, she tried to convince him by pulling his cheeks. Leiah was a bit busy looking after Kei, so Dana was lonely.
"Okay…" Rain said, and then he took Dana outside, and then she rode on his back while he mimicked a horse around the house.
That was as much embarrassing as it was good training for his back, arms, and legs. Ordinary training was starting to become less efficient, so having some weight on him was useful.
"Hey, it seems that you two are doing something funny," Roan suddenly said.
"Papa!" Dana jumped from Rain's back and made him fall before she dashed toward her father.
"I guess I am just a convenient toy for my little sister…" Rain thought while he was facing the ground.
"Hey, don't knock down your big brother," Roan said after he picked Dana. "Sorry, Rain. We should be looking after you as well, but sometimes it feels like you are the most responsible of the house."
"For obvious reasons," Rain thought while he was getting up and taking the dust from his clothes.
"By the way, did you forget about what I said before?" Roan asked. "You can play with the kids of my friends; they sure like to play war. The wooden swords might hurt, but it is fun. Daddy wasn't big enough to win against my brothers, but others were easy pickings."
It was pretty embarrassing to call himself Daddy, but Roan wasn't the time to mind the small stuff. He was fine living that kind of life.
"I am fine," Rain replied.
"I don't get it, you don't want to play with other kids, but you are fine with your sisters," Roan said while frowning. "I was the inverse, I couldn't stand my brothers, but everyone else was fine."
That probably isn't something you should say in front of your children… Roan still had to get a bit more mature when it comes to raising children.
"By the way, Grandma and Grandpa might come soon to talk with you, so try to behave, okay?" Roan asked. "I don't know why I am saying this; you always behave."
"... Why?" Rain asked while having a hard time not furrowing his eyebrows.
"Why should you behave, or why are your grandparents coming?" Roan asked. "Well, they are serious to a fault, and they are curious about your growth. Apparently, someone told them that you are quite studious and likes to run around the house to exercise."
It was rare to imagine Roan or Leiah saying that they knew that boasting about their kids was useless. Besides, Rain didn't like that since his grandparents never showed up at the birth of his little sisters.
