How to get Healed at Demon Farm Chapter 58

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

Thanks to Alfred joining the farm family, the work got certainly reduced.

Andras worked steadily on the farm while carrying out the work of Vice-chief.

Andras was mainly in charge of strawberry fields.

Recently, he has finished installing the preservation magic tools in the strawberry storage unit.

It was very good news ahead of the upcoming harvest.

In the case of Alfred, there is nothing particularly fixed, he followed me around and took charge of various things.

Except for the things directly related to Yakums, most of the work was handled by him.

Thanks to the performance of the two Demons, I could enjoy a healing happy farm life full of leisure.

Until another routine got added as the work had decreased.

It first began with Andras’ strong argument.

“Sihyeon… You have the status of Esther, but you still have no idea on Demon language.? That’s impossible.”

“Are you really planning on communicating only by using the interpreter’s ring. Even if it’s an honorary position, it’s a fact that you are now an aristocrat.”

“No… That’s…”

“Okay! Let’s start today.”

Thus, without my consent I was forced to study the Demon language along with Speranza.

At the age of 30, studying to write in Demon language with Speranza?!

I struggled to get out of this situation somehow.

I tried to express my opinion to Kaneff, Lia and Alfred, but it was useless.

“Senior, What would the Demons think when they heard that the new Esther can’t even write his name? Just study quietly.”

“Wouldn’t it be nice to study with Speranza?”

“Don’t exaggerate it and study diligently. Once you master the language write the report in my stead.”

The farm members brutally refused to take my side.

The only good thing is, it made Speranza happy.

She bursted out with joy when she heard that I will be studying with her.

Eventually, in the afternoon when I had some free time, Andras himself taught me and Speranza the Demon language.

He prepared for the lectures really hard, so learning was not as difficult as I thought.

Speranza was so smart that she absorbed Andras’ teaching like a sponge.

When I saw that, I felt proud as a guardian, and at the same time, I had to tremble with fear that I might fall behind her.

I still have pride as an adult, and in order to protect the authority as Speranza’s guardian, I followed the classes with thorough preparation and review that I never did even in my school days.

And…….

This was not the end of the new routine.

thud!

I rolled on the floor from the wooden sword that Alfred had wielded lightly.

“Oh, my…Senior…I told you before. If you put too much force on it, your lower body will lose balance and create gaps.”

“Ugh. It’s easy to say…”

I staggered up with a frown.

I regained my posture, fixing the wooden sword in my right hand.

The second new routine was Sword training with Alfred!

Personally, I thought it was as absurd as studying Demon language, but the opinions of other farm members were completely different even this time.

“Of course you had to learn swordsmanship. You never know what’s going to happen.”

“If you need me, I’ll do my best to protect you, but I think it’s not a bad idea to learn it for self-defense.”

“Isn’t it natural for someone as great as Sihyeon? You must learn.”

Uh… everyone.

I’m not that much of amazing person.

The expectations of the farm members on me were too high.

To me, who is used to being an ordinary person, the duty of being a noble felt too far away.

Still, I’m more used to using my body than using my head, so wouldn’t it be surprisingly worth practicing swordsmanship?

I’ve been looking forward to it.

But to my surprise, I couldn’t even breathe with Alfred’s strict teaching.

During the training session, I felt that most of thing I did was rolling on the ground.

“Haaah…Haaaah… Is this really how you learn? It’s too hard.”

“This is how everyone in my family trains. I’ve been learning this way since I was young.”

“Do you learn to get hit like this since you were young?”

“No. After finishing basic physical strength and posture training, I start training.”

“Ugh. Then why do I have start training without doing any basic training?”

“It’s too late for Senior to be laying the foundation step by step. It’s better to improve by experiencing it in combat.”

Alfred said that combat is the better way to improve my skills, but I didn’t feel like I was improving, since all I did was rolling on the ground.

“But Senior, I must say, you have good physical strength, so it’s good to bea….Ahm…. teach.”

“Hey… You just said it’s good to beat, right?”

“Hey, this isn’t a swordsmanship training? Aren’t you just trying to get back at me for what I did with the baby Yakums.?”

“Oh, my Lord…Senior. It’s a misunderstanding. I don’t think my true feelings have been conveyed yet. Maybe I should intensify the training.”

I growled in a low voice as I watched Alfred reply slyly.

“Well, let’s see who has the last laugh.!”

“That’s a good spirit. Then I’ll go again Senior.”

To avoid Alfred’s brutal wooden sword, I flapped my whole body and swung the sword in my hand like crazy.

Kaneff, staring earnestly at the paper on the desk, was filled with more seriousness and anguish than ever before.

“Boss, have you not made up your mind yet?”

“Be quiet….I’m thinking about it now.”

I sighed softly at the nervous reply that came back.

“Sihyeon, I’ve organized everything that’s needed in the kitchen.”

“Thank you. Can you tell me one by one?”

“Kitchen detergent and scrubber… And I need kitchen towels. There was also a lack of seasonings…….”

With the help of Lia, I took notes of what we lacked in the kitchen one by one.

At the same time, I organized the groceries that I would buy over there.

“Sihyeon, I’ve used up all the hand cream you got me last time. Can you get me some more?”

“I also used all the shower supplies…”

“Andras, can I get you that large hand cream from last time? Lia, since you seem to like WH brand’s products. I’ll buy enough this time.”

I took requests from my farm members step by step and recorded them in my notepad.

“That’s right, Alfred… You also need shower supplies, right? I’ll buy it for you this time. Tell me if you don’t like it later.”

“Oh? Hmm… Okay”

Alfred nodded in surprise.

Now that he was a member of the farm, it was only natural for me to take care of him.

After finishing organizing what we needed for the farm, I headed to Kaneff, who was still struggling.

“Boss, have you not decided yet?”

“Haaah… This is unreasonable! Can’t you just pick a few of these things!”

Kaneff, who can’t make a choice and gets angry, looks at what’s in front of him!!

It was an advertising paper with various snacks distributed at department stores and marts.

He was annoyed that he couldn’t choose which snack to eat.

“Then what shall we do? If you want to bring in a lot of things, we have to give more soul stones to the Angels.”

“Then we have to get rid of all these bloody Angels”

Just because of a few sweets, Kaneff uttered a cruel thing.

But it seemed like he will really put it into practice, making the listener — me, more afraid.

I thought I had to bring as many snacks as I could to soothe the excited Kaneff.

After finishing organizing roughly, I approached Speranza, who stood alone in the corner of the room with a doll in her arms.

“Speranza, is there anything you want to eat?”

“….”

“Do you want me to buy you the jelly,  that you liked last time? Or is it a Mon cheri chocolate?”

Speranza shook her head without making an eye contact.

I already knew why the little fox girl was upset.

Because I won’t be coming to work tomorrow since I hat to go to my mother’s hospital check-up.

“Speranza, do you remember the grandma you met last time?”

“That old grandma is sick, so I have to take her to the hospital.”

“Is…grandma fine…?”

“You don’t have to worry. I’ll go to the doctor tomorrow to make sure that she’s healthy. So you can wait like a good girl, right?”

“……”

Still pouting her cheeks and avoiding my gaze, but she nodded in a small voice.

I rubbed my hair with a conflicted look on my face.

If it wasn’t for the interference of the Angels, as Kaneff said, I would have taken Speranza right away.

However, it was not possible to solve the problem that arise due to the movement of a being belonging to the Demon realm to the Earth by offering a soul stone.

Except for those who are very exceptionally permitted, such as Ryan, all others are recognized as criminals and are severely punished.

Therefore, no matter how much I was hurt by seeing Speranza sad, I had no choice but to comfort her nicely with words to ask her to stay here.

“Don’t worry too much, Sihyeon, I’ll take good care of Speranza while you’re away.”

“I’ll teach Speranza during my free time.”

“Uh…Senior… I’m not close to Speranza yet, but I’ll help her with anything I can.”

“Thank you all. Thank you for your cooperation.”

With the consideration of all the members of the farm, the burden of my heart…….

“Sihyeon, I’ve decided. This time, buy a lot of 4X size potato chips, Oreo biscuits, and Chocopie. Of course, don’t forget the coke.”

“…….”

Except one member, all the member’s considerations helped me ease the burden of heavy heart a little.

Speranza looked sad as she saw her father leaving the farm.

A fairy and a baby Yakum approached the fox girl.

“ Speranza, Why do you look so sad popi?”

Poo woo woo?

Speranza replied in a feeble voice to her worried friends.

“Papa won’t come tomorrow. I have to sleep two more nights to see him again.”

“Unnnnn… I have to sleep two more nights before I can see papa..…”

The news of Lim Sihyeon’s day off made the fairy and the baby Yakum look sullen.

Poooooooo

“Papa wants to take me with him. But he can’t do that. He said then the bad guys will come after me.”

Speranza explained what the adults talked earlier.

Gyuri, who was thinking hard about something, smiled broadly and presented her opinion.

“If Sihyeon can’t take us, why don’t we go after him popi? Wouldn’t that be okay popi?

“We’re going after…”

– Poooo woo?

Speranza and Akum showed interest.

Gyuri began to explain her plan with an excited look.

Upon hearing Gyuri’s explanation, the other two nodded with sparkling eyes.

The curious buddies quickly agreed and immediately began to act.
