“Speranza dear! Were you taking good care of Grify and Finny?”

“Un! I played with them as Papa told me.”

“As expected of my daughter. I’m proud of you.”

“Hehe.”

I patted Speranza who responded happily as I complimented her.

Speranza smiled with a proud expression.

When I received the basket and checked it, Grify and Finny were sleeping very deeply despite the disturbance around them.

Maybe they played with the children so hard that they were exhausted.

The Barbatos twins who followed stood on either side of the Speranza.

They looked up at me and gave a silent look.

I soon realized the meaning of the eyes and burst into a grin.

“Did you guys take care of the baby Griffins with Speranza?”

“Umu… I played with Sister.”

“Un… As Sister said… I just watched..”

“Umu… Gripy and Piny played.”

“Before Grify asleep… I stroked…. head together with Sister.”

Ray and Shasha explained the story of playing with the baby Griffins in their own slow way.

Although it was a little gibberish, I could understand it without difficulty because the pronunciation was clear.

The twins looked at me with their usual calmness, but I quickly noticed a very slight change.

The languid eyes, which seemed to be half closed, were much more shiny than usual.

The twins must have had so much fun that I could feel their emotions from their calm expressions.

I patted Ray and Shasha’s hair one after another, just like I did to Speranza.

“I’m proud of you, too. You guys also did a great job.”

“Umu… great job.”

“….”

Ray took a triumphant pose at my compliment, and Shasha rolled her eyes, shyly.

But they didn’t avoid my touch, so I guess they didn’t feel bad.

“Lia, are those twins from the Barbatos?”

“Yes, It’s the son and daughter of Godmother Diana’s daughter who came with her today. Aren’t they cute?

“Yeah. Hi, are you guys from Barbatos?”

Alfred reached out to the cute twins, talking in a friendly manner.

His hand that tried to stroke the twins’ heads shook the air without achieving its meaning.

Simply dodging the touch, the twins looked at Alfred with a grim look.

It was like asking, ‘Why are you stroking us?’

Alfred trembled with confusion at the very cold response.

“Se, Senior, did I do something wrong to the kids?”

“No… I heard that they’re really shy.”

“Did they react like this when you first saw them?”

“No. They followed me well from the beginning.”

“…??”

The twins, who were looking at Alfred, hid behind me.

He grumbled with a slight look of incomprehension.

“How did Senior get so close to the kids?”

“Hmm, maybe I got a lot more paternal love while raising Speranza?”

“Elaine. Actually, Sihyeon’s family has been able to control the Beasts’ and the children’s hearts for generations.”

“Ah Andras! That’s a joke that Ryan has already used on me!”

Andras tried to trick Alfred, but unfortunately, Ryan was one step ahead.

Andras looked sullen at the failure to trick Alfred.

The rest of the members giggled as they watched the two.

At that time, Erma walked fast to where we sat.

“Ah… as expected!”

Erma, the mother of the twins, came towards us, exhaling heavily.

She looked at Ray and Shasha clinging to me and muttered dejectedly.

“I was taking a break from playing with the kids because I was tired. They couldn’t resist and came to Sihyeon. They’ve been with me all their lives, but how do they seem to like Sihyeon more?”

She spoke like a light joke, but there was a slightly visible sadness in her tone.

Embarrassed for no reason, I scratched my cheek with a vague smile.

“Haaaa… It seems like they don’t want to be separated from Sihyeon anyway, so there’s nothing I can do about it. If it’s not rude, can I rest here for a while??”

“Of course.”

I immediately introduced Erma to the people in the seat.

She was aware of the existence of Kael and Kaneff in advance and immediately greeted the two politely.

The rest of the members also briefly introduced themselves to her.

I took out a chair for Erma to sit on and made Speranza sit next to me.

Finally, as I was going to take my seat…

– Swoosh.

Ray and Shasha came next to me and raised their arms.

It was a typical ‘Hug Me!’ posture.

Seeing the twins who act childishly to me even though they have their own mother next to them, someone might really think I’m the father of the kids.

Sneakily I took a look at Erma.

She already had a resigned look on her face.

I nodded and looked at the children.

I was forced to sit with the twins in my arms.

The children naturally held me tight with a very comfortable expression.

“Hehheh, you look really good holding the children.”

“It’s because that guy shows strange abilities in strange places..”

“Aww… so cute. I want to hug them too.”

Kael and the farm members were amazed at the sight of me and the twins.

Erma couldn’t take her eyes off me holding twins.

“Ugh! I’m the mother of the children, but they get along so well that it makes me mad.”

And she murmured to herself,

“I should have hired you as a babysitter at all costs…”

There was a lot of sincerity in her words that I felt a little chill down my spine.

“You’re just in time. We’re going to have an amazing performance soon.”

An amazing performance?

At Ryan’s words, I and everyone put on a questioning expression on their faces.

“Didn’t you meet her before? In a little while, Murain will be on stage.”

Erma asked in a hurry, with a startled voice.

“Are you talking about the famous ‘Murain’?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“How did you manage to bring him here? As far as I know, you can’t easily invite her.”

“Haha, I’ve got a little bit of a connection. It’s Sihyeon’s special occasion, so I tried a little bit.”

As soon as Ryan’s words were finished, Murain, whom I saw earlier, appeared on the stage.

She changed into a gorgeous dress with heavy makeup and spread her presence everywhere just by appearing.

Everyone slowly turned to the stage, as if hypnotized.

The light side that she showed me when we met earlier was gone, and with a very serious face, she naturally caught everyone’s attention.

– Whoosh!

The performers played the tune to her hand gestures.

The lyrical melody of the music spread like a warm spring breeze.

Then, Murain began to spread her voice like a warm wind.

The endlessly clear voice pushed away all the other sounds and lingered in my ears.

Even though it was an open space on all sides, the voice of Murain was so clear.

It made me feel like I was in a theater when I closed my eyes.

Murain calmed my heart with her slender and feeble voice, and suddenly shook my chest with a voice full of power.

Just hearing her voice makes my heart flutter.

Is this how sailors who got seduced by the Mermaid’s song in myth felt?

I turned my eyes for a moment and looked at the reactions of the other farm members.

Everyone was equally absorbed in her voice and looked at the stage as if lost in consciousness, including Kaneff who listened without drinking the beer in his hand.

I guess Kaneff’s actions are enough to explain how immersive the song was.

Among them, Speranza listened to Murain’s songs with great concentration, without missing a moment.

She usually liked to listen to music, but she seemed to be more focused today.

After a while, Murain’s song ended, and thunderous applause and shouts poured out from the people watching the stage.

Unable to resist the overwhelming emotion, some jumped out of their seats and cheered enthusiastically.

Only then did a bright smile appear on Murain’s face, which had been maintaining its seriousness.

Before the lingering emotions that had overflowed with the shocking stage had subsided, Murain once again gestured toward the performers.

– Whoosh!

This time, the opposite of the previous, fast and exciting music came out.

Murain also began to swing slightly to the rhythm.

The surroundings quickly turned into a cheerful atmosphere.

As if she had become a completely different person from the previous Murain, she showed a different tone and sang along with the upbeat rhythm.

The people who couldn’t hold back their excitement rose from their seats and started dancing.

The twins in my arms also moved their shoulders to the beat.

As the song of Murain reached its peak, more and more people stood up.

Among us, Ryan, Alfred, Lia, and Erma rose from their seats and gave themselves to the rhythm.

In the end, the splendid skills of the performers and the voice of Murain were exquisitely combined to create a fantastic finish.

Once again, the tremendous applause and cheers were a result that anyone could easily expect.

Certainly, she was not called the most beautiful voice in the Demon world for no reason.

She seemed to have already charmed everyone, even though she only sang two songs.

Lia hummed as if she was still excited, and Andras’ shoulders were moving up and down.

Other farm members also seemed to have a similar feeling.

Meanwhile, Ryan, who brought Murain here, smiled very pleased at the successful stage.

Murain, who looked around with a slightly rough breathing and a raised face, made eye contact with me for a moment.

The tail of her eyes bent long and sent me a wink, blinking one of her eyes at me.

I stared blankly at Murain, then realized that someone was calling me and turned my head.

“Papa.”

“Huh? Yes dear, what happened?”

Speranza told me with sparkling eyes.

“…I want to be like that.”

“Huh…??”

“I want to sing like that.”

“Sing?”

“Un!”

I stared blankly at Speranza’s face full of excitement.
