How to get Healed at Demon Farm
Chapter 128
"Then get ready."
"No no, wait a min…"
Before I finished my word, the image of Kael slipped out of my sight.
I instinctively lifted my sword since I felt something strange and took a defensive posture.
“Ahhhh”
A powerful shock from the sword soon followed!
The impact was so powerful that it was hard to believe that the opponent's weapon was a wooden stick.
Unlike me, who blocked the blow by groaning, Kael had a relaxed expression.
"Ho ho? It's not as bad as I thought it would be. I don't think my grandson taught you in vain.”
"Ugh…"
“I think we can push it a little harder.”
At the end of those words, a series of really hellish attacks poured on me.
At first, I managed to stop the attack with all my might, but as time passed the number of attacks that could be stopped started decreasing, and the wooden stick began to land all over my body.
While training with Alfred, he often attacked me unilaterally like this, however, Kael's attack and Alfred's attack felt different in nature.
No matter how fierce Alfred's attack was, I could read the flow little by little but that doesn’t seem to be possible with Kael’s.
If you naturally adjust to the opponent's unique breathing and movement, you can expect the opponent's attack to some extent according to the flow.
But Kael's attack isn't like that at all.
One attack is completely different from the other.
I couldn't read the flow at all.
It was as if a ghost suddenly came out of nowhere and started attacking.
Is this what he meant when he said avoiding death?
It was completely different from sword training, which fostered skill and experience.
Every time the wooden stick hit my body, I felt a great pain rising throughout my body.
Naturally, the senses and nerves became as sharp as possible to avoid the attack somehow.
The attack, which felt like a ghost's prank, slowly became visible little by little.
Kael, who soon noticed my change, said with a smile.
"Good. But that's not enough… "
The wooden stick became blurry for a moment and then thrust deep into my side the next moment.
There was no gap for me to stop the attack since I noticed it late.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
I felt like my ribs broke.
At the same time, the pain that was being suppressed all over my body came rushing.
I fell down on the floor.
Looking at me groaning and breathing heavily, Kael relaxedly talked to me.
“You held out better than I thought. But you can never win a duel if you don't quickly bring out the sharp sense you just felt."
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, okay."
“Okay, just focus on getting that sensation out, for now, so you can move on to the next level.”
Kael, who was looking down at me for a moment, tapped his leg with the wooden stick.
"How long are you going to lie down and make an old man wait? UP."
"What? I just started to rest…"
"I don't know how things work in your world, but death doesn't wait in the Demon World."
Again, the stick became blurry.
I twisted my body for a moment and rolled in the opposite direction.
“Ahhhhhhhhh”
The wooden stick stopped in front of me while piercing the air with a gruesome sound.
If it hadn’t been stopped, I would have really experienced death.
I quickly got up and grabbed my sword.
In front of me, Kael posed with a wooden stick.
"Well… you've got the hang of it. I should raise the intensity a little more. Try to stop it with all your might."
"…gulp."
I swallowed my saliva and looked at the blurring image of Kael again.
He no longer looked like a child.
He was like a little reaper from hell who came for my life.
⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩
It has been three days since I started learning how to avoid death from Kael.
Still, training with him was painfully difficult.
The only thing that has changed is that his movement, which felt blurred, began to feel clearer little by little.
Of course, just looking at it clearly doesn’t mean I could stop the attacks.
This time the attack landed on my thigh.
The tremendous pain felt on the side of the leg shook my whole body, but I couldn't relax.
This was one of the things I learned in the past three days. If I ease my senses even for a second because of the pain, then soon a greater pain will follow.
‘Ugh… why isn't that stick broken?!’
It must be an ordinary wooden stick, but every time he swung it, it smashed the surrounding area with a tremendous sound – like a thunderbolt.
Also, it hurts so much every time I get hit by that wooden stick.
It was clear that in the Verdi family, the secret of beating an opponent painfully was handed down from one generation to another.
At first, I could only defend myself because of the hectic attack and terrible pain.
However, maybe because I got used to this dying pain, I gradually developed a sense of reluctance.
It would be strange if I hadn't, from getting beaten by the wooden stick for the whole three days.
I looked at Kael's movements with a keen eye while sharpening my senses.
It was still impossible to grasp the flow of his movement, but I tried to anticipate his movement in a very short span.
A series of ghostly attacks followed.
The pain was killing me.
But, my eyes never missed the movement of Kael.
‘ ….now!’
After only defending for three days, I tried to attack in line with Kael's movements for the first time.
A half-hearted attack with a feeling of uncertainty followed Kael's movements.
The moment I was excited that I had got him,
Kael's figure got slightly distorted like a blurring image and completely avoided my attack.
There was a whisper from Kael in my ear.
"You know what happens if you fail an aggressive attack, right."
“Of course, sir……”
The consequences of unguarded attacks have always been taught by Alfred.
As soon as Kael's whisper was over, a great deal of pain came rushing from my side.
"Ahhhhhhhhh!"
With a groan of pain, I collapsed and stretched out to the ground.
I let out a sigh of regret after failing the last attack.
"Are you all right?"
Andras, who was watching from the side, asked with a worried look.
I murmured back with a half-dazed look.
"Does this look okay?"
Andras grinned bitterly at my answer.
"Fortunately, you don't seem to have been seriously injured. Would you like some cold water?"
Even though I was hit hard for three days, I've never been seriously injured enough to get a bone broken.
That made this training was even scarier.
"Grandfather, I brought you a towel and water."
"Oh, thank you."
Kael settled down on a nearby rock, drinking cool water brought by Alfred.
“The last attack was a bit reckless, but it wasn't bad. It seems like the three days of hard work are paying off a little.”
"Thank you, sir"
I gasped and smiled at the compliment from Kael, which I had never heard of before.
"Sihyeon, would you like to try this?"
"Huh? This?"
Andras had a glass bottle of milky liquid in his hand.
"This is a potion sent from Demon Lord castle. It is said to be effective in recovering from fatigue and replenishing vitality."
When he opened the lid of the glass bottle, a fragrant scent flowed out.
Hmm?
I think I've smelled this somewhere…
I drank half the contents of the glass, feeling somehow familiar.
As soon as the potion went into my stomach, the warmth boiled from the inside.
The energy quickly began to stir and energize the whole body.
"Oh, oh…It works great."
"Didn't you feel something familiar?"
"……..?"
"It's a potion made from the Hap supplied from our farm."
"Wow! Really? No wonder it feels familiar."
I didn't know they made a potion with Hap.
Certainly, I drank only half a bottle, but my fatigue disappeared and my whole body seemed to be full of vitality.
"Oh, that's good. If you have such a good potion, we can start training faster."
"Cheer up Sihyeon, I'll keep supporting you."
I don’t know whether to call this a fortune or a misfortune.
Thanks to the potion sent from Demon Lord castle, training resumed soon.
If I fell down without being able to counter Kael's onslaught, I drink the potion again and recover.
The process of falling down and recovering continued for a while.
The sun was setting before I knew it.
"Ugh!"
I fell to the ground with one last grotesque scream.
Now my whole body trembled to the point where I couldn't really stand.
Kael approached me, who was completely exhausted.
I couldn't feel a change in his expression after dealing with me all day.
"Great job."
"It’s all thanks to you, sir."
"You've followed me better than I expected. At this rate, we can start our second training session today."
"…what?"
Second training?
Am I hearing things because I was too tired?
Kael took a small wooden box out of his arms, regardless of my bewildered reaction.
When he opened the box, three dark blue beads lay side by side.
Kael picked up one of them and approached me.
“Sihyeon, open your mouth.”
“What? What are you going to do, sir?”
"You have maximized your senses after training for three days, so isn’t it time for you to experience the real thing?"
"….???"
“Sir… …”
For three days, I've been hit with a wooden stick and rolled on the ground.
As I was dumbstruck by the absurd situation, Kael forced a dark blue bead into my mouth.
"Ugh… Oh, sir?! Whoo!"
“Don't worry. It would be over in no time…."
With Kael's small but tough hands, a dark blue bead was forced into my mouth.
Interestingly, as soon as the bead entered my mouth, it lost its shape like cotton candy.
Except for the feeling I felt when it touched the tip of my tongue for a very short time, I didn't feel any taste or texture.
‘What is this?’
As if under anesthesia, my consciousness quickly started fading.
With Kael's smile in front of me, I completely lost consciousness.

"Hey, what’s this? Why is it a human, not a Demon ?"
