Chapter 561.2
“In our clan, we start teaching magic skills from around the age of three, but we also use magic to entertain infants from a young age to make them aware that it is a normal thing to do.” (Layla)
“Oh, so you’re showing Riou and Sakuya all sorts of things, too?” (Yuki)
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.
