How to get Healed at Demon Farm Chapter 123

The first egg roll, which started passionately, ended in a disastrous failure. 

I don't usually leave food. 

But now, I had no choice but to throw away the remaining egg rolls because I couldn't even dare to eat them.  

After that, we tried making egg rolls a few more times, but unfortunately, the same result prevailed. 

“……. I'll clean up.”  

Completely depressed, Lia went into the kitchen to clean up. 

Alfred, who had been looking around, followed her in to help. 

I murmured with a look of incomprehension.  

“Why are these results coming out? There was no problem with the ingredients or the cooking process!” 

Kaneff sighed next to me. 

“Ah, that's not the problem in the first place.”

“What? Then what's the problem?”

“Do you remember how Lia changed during the last outing?”

“The picnic? It wasn't that long, of course, I remember.”  

In many ways, I remembered the picnic where a lot of things happened. 

In particular, another side of Lia was very shocking to me. 

“ The appearance of Lia right now is the state where she suppresses the Chaos Lia that she showed at the picnic. If she drinks alcohol, or if certain conditions are met, Chaos Lia will get released.”  

“But in her current state, Lia can't completely control the power of chaos. So, she often sheds a little bit of energy without realizing it.” 

“Then….” 

“That's right. Lia can't control her power when she cooks. The power of chaos undermines all order and laws, and the food affected by it cannot be delicious.”  

Two things surprised me when I heard the story from Kaneff.  

One was that the power of chaos that Lia had was amazing, and I was surprised once again that Kaneff knew exactly what caused it.  

“Did you know what was wrong with Lia's cooking?” 

“Well, kind of… it's gotten worse recently than it used to be.” 

“Does Lia know about this?” 

“Yeah, I'm sure she's been trying hard to control herself while cooking. In the end, the result came out like this……”

I was at a loss for a moment. 

I started it because I wanted to cheer for Lia's hobby, but it wasn't going to be as easy as I thought.  

I felt even worse because I remembered her suffering during the picnic. 

I kept thinking about it because I wanted to help somehow. 

“Boss……so can she make a normal dish if she can control that power of chaos?”  

“Probably. You saw it from the side, didn't you? There is no problem with the recipe or ingredients.” 

“Um….” 

Just as the conversation with Kaneff came to an end, Lia and Alfred came out after cleaning up.  

I made up my mind and approached Lia, who was sullen. 

“Lia, can we make one more egg roll?” 

“…One more time?” 

Lia asked back with a look of no confidence. 

“Yes, try making it again.” 

“But it won't change, it's a waste of ingredients.” 

“That's okay. I'm sure you'll succeed this time. And this time, I'll definitely eat it all.” 

“Se…Senior? Will you be okay?” 

“Hey, are you planning on destroying your stomach?” 

Alfred and Kaneff responded skeptically. 

I ignored the response of those two and waited for Lia's answer. 

After continuing to hesitate, she plucked up the courage once again and opened her mouth. 

“Umm, I'll do it….I'll do it one more time.” 

This time, the preparation process was nothing special.  

Prepare the egg mixture, oil the pan, and adjust to moderate heat. 

When it was time to pour the egg mixture, I made a suggestion to her. 

“Excuse me, Lia, if you don't mind, can I hold your one hand while you cook?” 

“What? Suddenly?” 

“Yes, I heard it from Boss. Aren't you having a hard time controlling? So I was wondering if I could help you.” 

Lia panicked at the unexpected suggestion.  

After a while, Lia, who calmed down, hesitated to hold out her left hand. 

And she nodded shyly, dyed red from her face to the bottom of her neck. 

I was the one who brought this up, but it's a lot more embarrassing than I thought… 

I thought she'd be more embarrassed if I was embarrassed. So, I calmed myself 

Lia held out her left hand carefully, keeping her expression as if she had been coaxed. 

I almost destroyed my expression when I felt her soft hand. 

'Focus, focus!' 

I remembered the memory of suppressing Lia, who was going wild during the picnic. 

Perhaps because I was holding her hand, I could feel the rough energy flowing through her body better. 

“Lia, I'll try to control it as much as I can. So, try doing what we did earlier.” 

“Okay!” 

The cooking process was a little uncomfortable because she was holding hands with me, but Lia's right hand cooked egg rolls without many mistakes.  

I sneakily watched the cooking process and controlled her energy not to affect the cooking. 

After a while, a golden well-made egg roll was completed. 

Not only the appearance but also the smell seemed no different from ordinary egg rolls. 

Carefully she transferred the egg rolls to a plate and took them to Kaneff and Alfred. 

The two looked at the egg rolls with nervous expressions.  

“I think it's okay on the outside. It doesn't smell strange.”  

“You never know until you try it…”  

I picked up a piece of egg roll before the two hesitant people. 

I threw it into my mouth without much thought. 

Lia, who made it herself, Kaneff, and Alfred's eyes were fixed on my face.  

I chewed on the piece of egg roll and swallowed it. 

“…delicious.”  

“Really…? You're not lying, are you?” 

Lia asked with a disbelieving look. 

“No. It's really delicious.” 

“Is it really good?”  

“I don't think Senior is lying?” 

The two carefully picked up the egg roll with suspicious looks. 

And soon the suspicion that had remained on their face disappeared. 

“Oh? It's really good.” 

“Um! It's totally different from before, Lia”  

Kaneff and Alfred responded positively, and Lia's face began to bloom with a smile. 

“Papa…Papa!” 

Speranza and Andras, who had been upstairs for a while, returned. 

As soon as Speranza came, she smelled the egg roll and ran. 

“Egg rolls… egg rolls! I want to eat egg rolls!” 

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

Lia looked at me with a slightly worried look on her face. 

I gave her a nod and encouraged her. 

“Speranza, this is an egg roll that I made. Would you like to try it?”  

Lia placed the egg roll on a plate and brought it to Speranza. 

As it is one of Speranza's favorite foods, she took the egg rolls into her mouth without any thought.  

All the farm members watched the fox girl's reaction with bated breath. 

MUNCH MUNCH. 

Speranza's face showed a bright smile. 

“It's super delicious, Sister Lia” 

“Really?” 

“Yes, make me more, Sister Lia!” 

Finally, when Speranza recognized the taste, Lia was moved to tears. 

“Sihyeon, I finally did it!” 

“Congratulations. Lia.” 

Lia, unable to control her overwhelming emotions, jumped into my arms. 

She hugged me so hard that I felt a little stuffy and a pleasant scent lingered at the tip of my nose.  

I was embarrassed by her sudden action, but I hugged her gently until she calmed down. 

Although the eyes of other farm families were a little stinging. 

“Papa, I want to hug you too!” 

Jealous Speranza came between us. 

For a while, I had to be held tightly to appease the two. 

A small stone was placed in the palm of my hand.

I kept staring at the stone without saying a word. 

After a while. 

 WHIRL WHIRL!  

CRUSH! 

There was a vibration sound around the stone for a while, and as if it couldn't withstand the external force the stone quickly broke. 

“Haaaaaaaa…”

There were already small pieces of stone scattered around the floor.  

“Tsk! I can't believe you still can't control your strength. Should I call this talentless… …or should I call it the epitome of talentless…”  

Kaneff, who was watching from the side, shook his head. 

“But I think you're getting better little by little. If you get used to it a little more, you'll be fine in no time.” 

A weak smile formed on my face at Andras' consolation.  

I have been learning reinforcement magic from Kaneff since the day I first learned reinforcement magic and fainted.  

I heard it's obviously very easy compared to other magic, but I still haven't crossed the stage of moving the mana. 

Since Reinforcement magic itself is the first stage of magic, it was ambiguous to describe what I'm doing as a stage…  

I lay on the ground while screaming in frustration. 

“Argh! I can't do it anymore. I'm so focused that my head feels like it's going to break.” 

“Sihyeon. Would you like some cold water?”  

Lying on the ground, I took a bottle of water from Andras and took it to my mouth. 

Thanks to the cold water, I felt like my head was clearing up a little.  

Kaneff looked down at me lying down and said,  

“Don't be lazy in training without me. Practice at least 30 minutes a day with concentration.”  

“Huh? I thought you said never to train when you weren't there.”  

“Didn't I tell you? I won't be on the farm in a few days. There is someplace I need to go.”

“What?”  

I jumped up from my seat in surprise. 

“Boss is leaving the farm?” 

“Why are you so surprised? I'm not stuck here as a punishment, and I can go out if I want.” 

Kaneff said as if it was nothing. 

I thought of something and looked sorry for him. 

“Oh… that's what happened?” 

“What? What's that look?” 

“You wrote your report so insincerely……In the end, it seems that the Demon Lord has made a decision? Looking at your usual working attitude, I guess, you lasted for a long time…….”

“What are you talking about?” 

“What? Didn't you get fired from the farm manager's position?” 

“Who dares to fire me?!!” 

Kaneff roared angrily. 

Andras, who was watching from the side, couldn't hold back his laughter.  

“I thought you were finally kicked out because you were usually so sloppy.”  

“NEVER! It's never going to happen. And even if I got kicked out of the Demon Lord castle, I'd just keep messing around here.” 

“Wow… that's a scary situation in its own way.”  

I slumped to the ground with a slightly depressed expression on my face.  

“Then where are you going? You usually don't like to go out.” 

“He's away from the farm for a while because of the family he belongs to.” 

“Oh….The… famous blacksmith family?”  

“That's right. You remembered what I told you last time.”  

Kaneff scratched his head with a look of great annoyance. 

“I don't want to go, but I have to take care of my territory once in a while.” 

“Wow… Are you the lord of a territory?” 

“It's not my territory. I'm only in charge of it for a while.” 

“How long will you be away?” 

“It'll take about two weeks.” 

“Is it two weeks?” 

I was more surprised at the long absence of Kaneff than I thought.  

He didn't usually play an important role in farm activities. 

Still, it felt a little strange to hear that Kaneff, who I always thought was guarding the farm, was leaving. 

I felt a little anxious and lonely……and I don't know if he read my mind, but Kanep burst out laughing. 

“You don't have to be so anxious. I'll be back after finishing my work as soon as possible. There's no place like this farm to fool around without doing anything.”  

“No, well, I'm not anxious…” 

I gave an awkward excuse in an embarrassed mood. 

Kaneff, who was smiling, continued with a serious look. 

“Without me, you're in charge of the farm. If anything happens, take care of it.” 

“Me? There is Andras and Lia…”  

“They're not tied to the farm. And you know the farm best, so who can blame you? Don't worry too much. It won't be a problem if you just do what you've been doing.” 

Kaneff patted me heavily on the shoulder. 

“Then please.” 

“Okay. Until the boss comes back. I'll keep our Demon farm safe.” 

Andras next to me talked to me as if he was trying to ease my burden.  

“I'll help you as much as I can, so you don't have to worry too much.”  

“Thank you, Andras. It's only two weeks… …I guess nothing would happen?” 

I regretted the words that I uttered that day. I never thought that a storm that would shake the happiness of the farm was approaching.
