Chapter 11: Little sister

Since he couldn't work as a guard anymore, Roan stayed at home a lot more than before, but he still kept working polishing armor and weapons day and night.

Rain felt bad thanks to that… he couldn't do much to help, and he was living a good life. Despite that, Roan managed to recover his other leg after saving enough money for two months. He had bags under his eyes, but he was completely recovered when it was about time for Leiah to give birth again.

On the day that Leiah gave birth again, an undeniable tension hung in the air, palpable and heavy with anticipation. The atmosphere crackled with a mixture of excitement, concern, and nervous energy that coursed through the hearts of Rain and Roan.

In the hours leading up to the blessed event, the surroundings seemed to hold their breath, as if nature itself recognized the significance of the moment. Not many people gathered around, but they were tense enough to make up for dozens of people.

And as the moment finally arrived, as the cries of a newborn echoed through the halls, the tension gave way to a surge of relief, joy, and tears of happiness. The collective breath that had been held in anticipation was released in a wave of elation, enveloping the room and washing over every heart. Just like with Rain, Moira helped Leiah with the birth, and she seemed happier since it was a crying girl instead of a silent boy.

"I guess women are like that," Rain thought while shrugging.

Roan's closest friends came to congratulate Roan on his second kid. It was a little chubby girl. Roan was smiling from ear to ear, saying she was the world's cutest thing.

While Rain never had siblings, he could understand a doting father for his first daughter. Roan also looked like the type who would spoil his daughter rotten if Leiah let him.

Rain didn't feel much about that; he was just glad that he got a healthy little sibling. He could understand the feeling; as a man, most guys would want to become the best friend of their kids instead of just becoming a figure of authority. A best friend and a hero as well… that is why it is common for some people to get straightened out when they have kids.

While Leiah was recovering from the birth, Roan stayed at home to help, but after one month, he resumed his work as a guard in the city.

"I guess he doesn't have much choice… it probably pays more, and he doesn't want to be seen by his children as a weakling," Rain thought.

Rain thought that another reason for that was the fact that his little sister, Danarea, cried all the time. It was an easy job for his parents, but his little sister wasn't making things easier for them. Roan and Leiah had bags under their eyes most of the time since they couldn't sleep that well at night.

"Also, why Danarea… just call her Dana!" Rain protested in his mind. "It seems that Mother wants us to be bullied because of our names…"

Thanks to that, Leiah's working hours disappeared, and she could only sleep when Dana allowed her. The hierarchy in the house was slowly taking shape. Weirdly enough, Dana didn't cause much of a fuss when Roan had her in his arms.

"I suppose she feels safe with father…" Rain though. "Regardless, I have more freedom now!"

Leiah had to take care of Dana, and when she didn't have to, she was too tired to do anything. Since Rain didn't cause any problems around the house, she felt relaxed enough to take some naps when Dana allowed. Thanks to it, Rain was able to leave the house by himself.

"Not like there is much to do here…" Rain said while looking around.

The house was a small but cozy stone house, emanating an undeniable charm. Its humble exterior, crafted from weathered gray stones, harmonized with the natural landscape as if it had emerged from the very earth itself.

The house, though unassuming in size, exuded a warmth and comfort that welcomed all who crossed its threshold. A quaint wooden door, weathered with age and adorned with a simple brass knocker, invited visitors to step inside and discover the charm within.

Despite that, Rain could run around and train the skills that consumed stamina. That was a lot better just moving around the house. Rain was also almost two and a half years old, so his body could move well already.

"I dunno if boxing is a thing in this world, but I should make my body get used to training and basic movements of boxing," Rain thought. "In a world where dragons exist, and magic people can use crazy magic, just punching possible enemies away isn't the best of options, but I can always learn how to use a weapon later. For now, let's focus on unarmed combat."

While the house wasn't that big, running around it was enough to cover fifty meters. Rain felt really good starting with his roadwork in another world. While it was tiring and exhausting, it sure cleared the mind and made him feel better and accomplished. On the first day, he did forty laps, and on the second day, he did forty-five… that sense of progress was simply amazing.
