Riou didn’t cry or fuss at all when she was picked up, even by her grandparents, who she had just met for the first time.
I noticed how clever Riou was as a baby, but perhaps this might be because she was a beastman.
The beastmen have excellent noses. I knew this well from spending time with Lyuu.
So, perhaps she recognized Lyuu’s parents by their scent and understood that they were family.
“This is a baby… a baby, Master!” (Emu)“Hmm, yeah, that’s right. This is indeed a baby.” (Eldogalia)
“It’s so small!” (Emu)
“Well, of course, it’s a baby.” (Eldogalia)
“I can’t believe that this can carry out vital activities… life is wonderful!” (Emu)
“That’s right. Life is remarkable just by itself.” (Eldogalia)
Next to Lyuu’s family, speaking with Sakuya were Layla’s younger sister Emu and Master Eldogalia.
Apparently, this was Emu’s first time seeing a baby, and she seemed both curious and a little scared.“But still, what a child with tremendous power… As expected, the child of the Demon Lord and the Dragon Lord, I see. What a unique magical power.” (Eldogalia)
“Indeed… I’ve never seen a child with this kind of presence before. I don’t think there are many others in the Sheep Horn clan who have observed anything like this.” (Emu)
Illuna responded to their words.
“Amazing, I guess the people of the Sheep Horn clan can notice things like this. The Spirit King Sensei said something similar, but I don’t understand.” (Illuna)
“Shii doesn’t understand either! Riou and Sakuya are just so cute!” (Shii)
“…That’s the truth. Babies are cute.” (Enne)
“Yes! Babies are cute! As a member of the [Babies are Cute Yay! Committee], I fully agree with Shii and Enne!” (Illuna)
“They’re so cute!” (Shii)
“…It’s cute. Emu, say it too.” (Enne)
“Eh? …Yay, it’s cute?” (Emu)
“Excellent, I hereby declare that Emu has joined the [Babies are Cute Yay! Committee]!” (Illuna)
“Oh!” (Shii)
“…Oh…” (Enne)
Emu was confused and unable to keep up with Shii and Enne’s line of thought.
That committee still existed?
“Nell-san, the children seem to have learned some strange things.” (Yuki)
“Riou and Sakuya are the cutest, so it’s a good thing!” (Nell)
The hero gave them a thumbs-up.
Seeing the children having fun, Eldogalia-sensei and Lefi smiled.
“Hahaha, your kids are so energetic. You can tell a lot about a family by looking at their children. I’m glad to see that they’re still getting along so well.” (Eldogalia)
“Kaka, sorry for the noise. Ever since the family has grown, the noise has become even louder.” (Lefi)
“Oh, by the way, listen to this, Father and Mother! In addition to Riou and Sakuya, Fenrir-sama’s child was born as well, and it’s so cute! Riou’s younger sister, Sakuya’s older sister, and they’re getting along well!” (Lyuu)
“Fenrir-sama’s child! That’s also a wonderful occasion!” (Lyuu’s Father)
“Oh, I see, so these children make up a set of three siblings.” (Lyuu’s Mother)
“Oh, Fenrir’s children… that’s something I’m interested in too.” (Eldogalia)
“Well, since we’re here, I’ll go and invite Rir and his family. Just wait a moment.” (Yuki)
I left the room for a moment.
