How to get Healed at Demon Farm Chapter 50

Published at 11th of November 2022 08:13:37 PM

“Lalala la la la….!”

Speranza held my hand and hummed the melody of her favorite song.

Her excitement could be felt through the hands I was holding.

The appearance of trying to hide her feelings has disappeared completely, and now Speranza, like a normal child, expresses her feelings openly.

It was a trivial change, but as a guardian watching from the side, that small change was so precious and grateful.

After taking care of Yakums early in the morning and finishing the breakfast, heading to the garden with Speranza like this has become a new farm routine.

In particular, Speranza loved going to the garden.

The baby Yakums, who always played with her, were a little disappointed.

Burrrrrrrr

On the way to the garden, a honeybee approached us.

It was the first honeybee I communicated with, and whose wing’s sound I am accustomed to.

“ Hi, Bumble?”

When I called the name Bumble, the honeybee gently landed on the palm of my hand.

And he shook his plump hips and moved around on my palm.

This was a greeting that showed Bumble’s intimacy.

“Bumble..! Bumble..!”

This time, Speranza held out her hands and opened her palm.

Then Bumble showed the same movement on Speranza’s small hand.

Speranza smiled pleasantly at the ticklish feeling felt above her hand.

Bumble, who welcomed us, went around us and began to fly somewhere as if asking us to follow him.

The place we arrived along with Bumble was a small beehive made near the garden.

When I opened the entrance of the beehive slightly, a very strong honey smell came out.

The beehive was filled with honey filled by the bees.

“Wow! Did you guys collect this much already?”

Burrrrrr!

Burrrrrr

After I relieved the anxiety of the honeybees through communication with honeybees, honeybees, including Bumble, came to the farm.

The honeybees began to build hives in the farm buildings without permission, and naturally, Kaneff’s demolition order was issued.

They would have done it to repay the kindness, but it was not so pleasant, even for me to hear the flapping of the wings of honeybees all day long.

So, instead of the farm building, I made a separate beehive near the garden.

The bees cleverly recognized my intent and began to fill the beehive with honey.

I don’t know how hard these bees work, but the small beehive got filled up quickly.

Sooner or later, I thought I would have to make more new beehives.

“ Bumble, thank you!”

Burrrrr

Bumble circled around me and flew somewhere.

I carefully closed the beehive and headed back to the garden with Speranza.

The beehive was very close, so I could quickly see the entrance to the garden.

And there was a fairy with orange colored hair and eyes waiting for us.

“Why are you so late, popi.”

The fairy cutely inflated her cheeks and complained.

“ Hahahah. Sorry Gyuri, I met Bumble in the middle.”

“Hmph!”

The fairy looked sulky at the story of meeting Bumble before her.

The name I gave to the fairy was Gyuri, which means farm in Greek.

Since she was the fairy protecting the fruits I farmed for the first time, I named her that way.

Interestingly, there was no concept of naming among fairies, so I named her separately to call differently from other fairies.

It seemed a little rough, but Gyuri seemed to like her name very much.

While thinking about how to soothe the sulky Gyuri, Speranza, who was next to me, came out and called her.

“Gyuri, do you want to eat this with me?”

“What is it, popi?”

“It’s a candy that papa gave me.”

Speranza drew Gyuri’s attention by showing her the fruit candy that I always bring.

The sulky fairy’s expression quickly turned into a curious expression and came close to candy.

Gyuri looked around at the candy that was almost the size of her head.

I broke the tip of the candy slightly, made it into small pieces, and handed it over to Gyuri.

Lick

“ Wow….This tastes like a sweet fruit, popi.”

The fairy, who tasted the candy for the first time, forgot that she was sulking until few seconds ago, and began tasting the candy.

With Speranza and Gyuri sharing the candy, I started looking around the garden.

The garden has really changed greatly that it is hard to recognize.

After the fairies helped, the strawberries grew well and were already preparing to bloom.

How can they grow so fast.?

The changes when I checked after breakfast and after lunch were clearly visible.

With this growth, I thought I could expect strawberry harvest soon.

Of course, it was good to see them grow up healthy, but a problem occurred in a place that I never thought of.

Gyuri with candy in her mouth sat on my shoulder.

“Sihyeon, when are you going to plant more strawberries popi.?”

“ Hmm. I think it’s going to be hard right now.”

“No, popi. More strawberries are needed to make it a new area popi.”

The new problem with the garden was that the fairies wanted to plant more strawberries.

It’s a size that can’t be compare to the size of the garden now.

Planting strawberries could be done, but the problem was that I couldn’t afford to manage them at all.

There were so many things to pay attention to, even just running a small garden.

Due to the influence of fairies, weeds grew quickly and had to be pulled out every day, and the growth of strawberries was so fast that continuous management was needed.

It took quite a lot of time to manage a garden this small, and it was clear that if the size was increased further, other works on the farm would not be possible.

However, it was not possible to ignore Gyuri’s request continuously.

I am not sure what it means to expand the territory of the village, but it seemed quite important for a fairy.

“Wait for a little bit Gyuri, I’ll think of a way somehow.”

“Okay, popi. Then I’ll trust Sihyeon and wait, popi.”

“Do you want more candy?”

“Hehe. Thank you, popi.”

Gyuri smiled when I took out a new candy.

Once I reassured Gyuri, I fell into deep thought alone.

Planting more strawberries……

The most necessary thing to expand the field was workers.

Recalling the plans I had drawn little by little in my head, I began to organize how to act in detail.

Lia and I in a carriage entered the entrance of the Elden Village.

The village was filled with noise from sounds of the merchants.

We burst into admiration as we watched the lively scenery of the village.

“It’s really strange. It feels like yesterday when we first came to this village, and I can’t believe it’s already changed this much.”

“It’s definitely changed as Sihyeon said. People’s expressions are also full of vitality.”

It was not only the appearance of the village that changed.

The way the villagers looked at us also changed a lot.

We were already gaining absolute popularity among the children, but still there was a little distance from adults.

Even that slightest sense of distance disappeared by the time the merchants came to visit the village again.

Now, every resident I encountered smiled and greeted me, and their eyes were full of welcome and goodwill.

In particular, there was no negative gaze at all on Lia, with whom they were more vigilant.

“ Mr. Sihyeon. you’re here. Oh… How have you been Ms.Lia?”

Lagos found us from afar, rushed to greet us.

“Hello Lagos. I think you were busy, sorry for disturbing you.”

“No matter how busy I am, can I pretend not looking at the savior of the village? Of course, I have to say my greetings.”

While talking to Lagos, a procession of merchants appeared at the entrance of the village.

Lagos expressed doubts about the slightly different procession from the last time we saw it.

“Huh? I think there are more mercenaries than usual.”

“In addition, looking at the condition of the equipment, I think their skills are formidable.”

Lagos nodded his head and agreed with me.

Ergin, who was leading the merchant procession, ran straight to me as soon as he found me.

“Sir. Sihyeon! It’s been a while. Have you been well.?”

“Long time no see. Ergin.”

Maybe because he benefited greatly from the strawberry deal, the attitude of Ergin toward me was very polite and full of intimacy.

” I think there are more mercenaries today than last time.”

“I paid more attention to safety. As rumors about strawberries have grown, more and more people with bad intent starts flocking.”

“You’re having a hard time.”

“Ha hahah! And it means that there is a sweet profit as much as the attention is drawn, so it wouldn’t be that much unbearable for a merchant?”

Ergin smiled with a relaxed appearance.

Even though I didn’t know what his true self was like, his pride as a merchant seemed to be real.

“Oh my… didn’t the little lady come with you today?”

“Ah, Speranza?..She has a new friend to play with these days.”

Speranza was playing with Gyuri in the garden now.

Because of that, Miru, who was waiting in Elden Village, was disappointed.

“Is that so? That’s too bad. I brought dolls and toys that the little lady would like…”

“Thank you for caring about Speranza. Do you want  to look at the strawberry I brought first?”

I took a box of strawberries from the carriage with the help of Lia and handed it over to Ergin.

He took the box very carefully and carefully looked at the strawberries.

Then, he handed it over to the employee next to him and gave them instructions.

“Quickly put it in the luggage compartment designed to maintain freshness. You have to check again and again to prevent the contents from pouring out.”

“Yes. Sir. Ergin.”

Dozens of employees ran around the strawberry box and headed carefully to the luggage compartment.

Ergin returned with a relaxed look only after checking in person that strawberries were safely stored in the luggage compartment.

“Hmm. Well since I received the strawberries. It’s my turn this time.”

When he bounced his hand, a staff waiting behind handed over two heavy bags.

“We sold the strawberries you gave us before and this is your share of the profits we earned. It’s about 8,000 gold.”

“Whoww, 8,000 gold?”

Lagos, who was listening next to me, was surprised by the amount and swallowed the empty wind.

I already knew how expensive strawberries were, and at the same time, I couldn’t realize how much money 8,000 gold was, so I kept a calm look.

“We prepared half of it in jewelry and the other half in gold. If you want, I can exchange them for jewelry or gold coins.”

One of the bags handed over was filled with jewelry and the other with gold coins.

I roughly finished checking and handed the bag over to Lia.

Ergin slowly opened his mouth carefully, looking at the chance.

“ Sir. Sihyeon, do you need anything else? If you tell me, I’ll prepare as much as I can.”

“I don’t need anything else, but I want to discuss something a little bit with Ergin and Lagos.”

“Me too?”

I called Ergin and Lagos together.

“I’m making a new plan about strawberries, not anything else.”

“……?”

“……?”

“ I’m thinking of increasing the size of the strawberry field. So I wanted to ask you two for some advice… …”

Even before I wasn’t done talking, Ergin raised his voice with a spark in his eyes.

“I’ll help you. What do you need? Investment? Equipment? Account? Just tell me.”

He was ready to go plowing the strawberry fields on his own right now.

“ No. I don’t need that grand help. Me or Lia can’t manage all of the strawberry field alone, so I’m thinking of getting some workers for help. “

And I continued to look at Lagos.

“ If you don’t mind, can you help me ? If possible, I’d like to borrow some hands from the residents of Elden Village.”

“Ha……..our villagers?”

He stuttered as if he was very confused by my suggestion.

“Yes. Of course, I’ll pay them a daily wage. If possible, I’d like someone who has experience in fieldwork to help me.”

“Sir. Sihyeon? If you need workers, I’ll get them for you. There are plenty of cheap workers with solid experience……”

“No, it’s okay. I think people of Elden Village is enough for me. Lagos, what do you think? Is it possible ?”

Tears formed slightly in Lagos’ eyes.

I was greatly confused by the completely unexpected response.

“Lagos…Are you all right?”

“ I’m sorry. It’s the first time someone reached out to us — the Beast people like this. I was a little touched.”

” Lagos…”

“Is it okay Mr. Sihyeon.? Is it okay to leave such an important task to us?”

“Of course, I don’t have anyone I can trust more than the people of the Elden village. Rather, I’m asking for it on my own accord.”

“Thank you… Thank you.”

Lagos wiped away tears from his red eyes, and vowed to me with a determined look.

“ Mr. Sihyeon please leave it to me. I’ll do my best not to disappoint you.”

“That’s enough. I look forward to your kind cooperation,”

I reached out to him by stretching my hands, and Lagos firmly held my hand.

Meanwhile, Ergin chewed his lips and looked at us with a very anxious expression.
