During that short period of peace, things were changing a bit around the house as well, thanks to the growth of Rain's little sisters. Dana was starting to ask to go with Rain and Roan out when they left the house. She was six years old already, so she had way too much energy, and dealing with that was a bit tiresome. She didn't like to study either, so she was constantly asking to come with them.

"Not today, Dana," Rain said. "I will have a day off in two days, so I will take you all to walk around the fields."

"Not fair!" Dana protested.

Rain sighed and then saw Kei reading a book in the corner of the room. She would be the quiet literary type of the family, it seemed. For a while, Rain assumed that she would become cold and distant, but that was a wrong assumption. Kei would constantly approach him and everyone else around to read books to her while she sat on their laps.

She didn't show many expressions, so everyone felt happy when she did that.

As for the youngest of the three, Gila was still developing her personality, but it looked like she would become an indoor type as well. She liked to watch Leiah and Luana cooking, and she also liked to eat as well, so perhaps she would become interested in that area. Rain would be fine with whatever path his sisters chose.

Still, he believed that training them to defend themselves was almost completely necessary.

"We are all two years apart from each other… it was supposed to be around this time for a new sibling to arrive, but it seemed that my parents slowed down on the Rabbit path," Rain thought. "Why did you have to make me think of this?"

"You seem lost in thought," Meiro said after he suddenly approached. "I have some good news. In the last few months, my friends didn't detect any movements coming from the enemies in regard to your father."

"That is good," Rain said. "I thought that the illusions woman was the type who would hold a grudge over this, but it seems that my guess is wrong."

"About her… it seems that she stayed in Tristan for three months and then returned back home," Meiro added. "It seems a bit too late for punishment, though. Not like losing a single brainwashed soldier would change the plans of the magic people."

"I hope that she gets punished over it. I just don't hope that they won't send someone worse than her," Rain said while furrowing his eyebrows. "By the way, Grandpa. I am teaching Dana some earth magic, and since she wants to leave home more often, I was planning to take her with us to tend the fields."

"I don't mind that; I think that it would do her good… but she is a bit harsh and impatient," Meiro said while scratching his cheeks. "It might take a while for her to take your job if it is what you want."

"Only in the future," Rain said.

Rain wanted to make his sisters an irreplaceable part of the village since that would make it hard for people to turn them down if something happened, like some officers from the kingdom investigating things around the area. He also wanted to train more and find other ways to make money without using too much magic.

"I suppose I can't leave this area yet until I know that everyone will be safe… this world is too interesting not to explore, though," Rain thought.

Rain had been thinking about the war, and while not many things had happened until now, and he had time to find some solutions to it, he failed at coming up with any kind of plan. Things were too much on a large scale for Rain's current powers, and there were countless people stronger than him… he had to come up with more methods to get stronger.

"I guess I have to learn techniques and spells that are advanced; that way, I will gain a shit ton of points when I unlock those paths," Rain thought. "The only problem is that I don't know when or if I will unlock those paths."

Rain spent the time before going to sleep thinking of those techniques. He focused on the ones that would help them the most. It would be helpful if he could hear some tips from others, but his father said that such things can't be taught like that. They had to come naturally to him in order for them to be really effective.

In the end, Rain asked his grandfather to buy a book for him that had the history of famous figures from the past. He imagined that such things would give him some inspiration.

"Copy what I do," Rain said while he was touching the ground and made his mana open a path of thirty meters where the seeds would be planted and they would grow a bit far apart from the other lines. "Keep your focus because it will get harder the longer the line."

Dana nodded and focused on the task ahead. While Rain was waiting for the book, he decided to help Dana learn how to do the fieldwork with magic. She had some aptitude for earth magic as well, so she managed to make the path emerge slowly, but after a while, it began to get not so straight.
