How to get Healed at Demon Farm
Chapter 196
All three protested my decision to draw lots.
"I don't mean to belittle others, but when it comes to experience and skills, I think the answer is…."
"Andras, what do you mean? I don't think I'll ever be pushed back, either."
"That's great. It wouldn't be a bad idea to take this opportunity to check each other's skills."
Everyone showed no signs of backing down easily.
It felt like they were about to start the "second-ranking battle" following the last outing.
Ryan and I were flustered by the atmosphere that keeps getting heated up.
"Hohoho, that's nice. You all want to check each other's skills, right? Then, I'll help you."
SLURP!
SLURP!
SLURP!
“Mi, Mister. Kaneff?”
“Ah?!”
Blue chains shot forth from Kaneff's wrist.
“The person who endures my attack for a long time will be Sihyeon’s escort. I will attack you with all my heart without taking any regard for you, so there will be no complaints, right?”
He said he would help, but his eyes were full of thoughts to vent his anger on the three people.
The three, who never backed down until a while ago, waved a white flag.
“Shall we decide by drawing lots?”
“Well, that sounds fair?”
“I'll bring some paper and a pen.”
The three prepared hurriedly for drawing lots.
Kaneff pulled back the chain with a look of boredom.
Andras cut the paper he had brought into small pieces and wrote down the names of the three while writing his name on a bigger paper.
Ryan shook the bag of paper well and held it out toward me.
"Sihyeon, please pick one. You’ll be taking the person whose name comes out, as your escort."
"Um… okay."
I put my hand in the bag under the heavy gaze of the three.
Every time I moved my hand, I felt the crunch of the paper.
After stirring the bag to mix well, I picked up a piece of paper hanging on my fingertips.
Then I slowly unfolded the folded paper and read out the name written there.
"…. Kaneff!!?"
"‥‥?"
"What? Kaneff?"
Everyone looked puzzled by the name that came out of the blue.
Kaneff scratched his cheek and muttered embarrassingly.
"I was bored, so I wrote down my name. Do you have a problem with it?"
"Ah, no, Mr. Kaneff!"
Huh… when did he sneak in one?
It was even more amazing that I picked that one.
For a moment, everyone looked at Kaneff with a disappointed look.
Kaneff got irritated by the slightly resentful stare.
"Argh! What!? Even if I can’t go, can’t I join in……Yeah Yeah, go ahead… have fun on your own."
Kaneff lay down on the couch in a sulky way and turned around.
It must have felt very unfair to him for being excluded from the candidate.
After a moment's delay in appeasing him, I put my hand back into the bag.
This time, I picked up a piece of paper faster than before.
Three demons were full of nervousness and anticipation.
I unfolded the paper and read the name written on it.
⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩
BAM
The standing target exploded with a loud explosion sound.
Andras, who was watching from the side, nodded his head satisfactorily.
“I think you're good at using Artifact's attack magic.”
“Really?”
“Yes, just one more thing. If you use a series of high-output magic, the defense magic may not work. If you just keep that in mind, there won't be much of a problem.”
"I'll keep that in mind. Thank you for making such a good artifact."
“No problem.”
Andras smiled at my thanks.
I also replied with a smile, but suddenly his face darkened.
"If I had been with you, I wouldn't have had to give you these artifacts…"
Andras muttered with a lot of regrets.
Looking at Andras feeling that way, I felt sorry for him.
I patted him on the shoulder and offered him words of comfort.
"Don't be too disappointed. We'll have another chance."
"I hope so too even though I don’t want Sihyeon to get into danger. If I get that chance, I'll definitely protect you."
Andras was not chosen for the escort mission.
I guess he was looking forward to it.
Although he usually doesn't show his emotions well, right now, I could clearly feel his disappointment.
I would like to take all the farm members, but the inflexible Angels’ side would not allow it easily.
Still, I didn't let go of my expectation that I would have a chance someday.
After practicing using the artifact, we headed to the farm building while talking about various other things.
“Senior!”
Alfred found us and came running from afar.
He held my sword in his hand.
“Where did you two go?”
“I went to learn how to use artifacts from Andras.”
“I see. Here's your sword, I've done all the maintenance.”
I took the sword from Alfred and drew my sword.
A sharp light shone on the cleanly polished blade.
"Wow… You should have gone through a lot of trouble for this… I’m sorry."
"No, I did it on my own, Senior. I can't make you a great artifact like Andras, this is all I can do for you. I'm glad I could help you like this."
"You've been helping me a lot recently, including all the training."
"That's all right, hehe."
"Thank you. I'll use it well."
I thanked Alfred while holding my sword.
He nodded with pride.
Andras, who was watching from the side, asked Alfred.
"Elaine, aren't you sad that you couldn't go with Sihyeon?"
"Me? Um… I was really sad at first, but I think I'm okay now. There'll always be another chance."
Alfred replied calmly as if he had brushed off his lingering feelings.
Andras and I slightly admired his unexpectedly mature appearance.
"That's very mature. I'm embarrassed of myself for being disappointed a while ago."
"Haha! Is that so?"
"Compared to Elaine…"
Andras looked at the farm building while sighing.
"Ah…"
"Ummm…"
Alfred and I easily guessed who he was thinking about and nodded our heads.
"Sihyeon, isn't it time for you to get ready?"
"Huh? It's already this late. Let's go back quickly."
We headed to the farm building together, carefully thinking about the person who showed his immature side despite his age.
As soon as I entered the building, Speranza ran to me as if she had waited.
"Papa! Where have you been?"
"Ah, I went to do something with Teacher Andras. Why darling?"
"Can't we take Grify and Finny to grandma's house?"
– Biip!
– Biip?
Speranza asked, showing the baby Griffins in her arms.
I opened my mouth with a flustered look.
“That's going to be hard, dear.”
“Why Papa? If Gyuri and Akum can come, why can’t Grify and Finny can’t come, Papa?"
Like Akum and Gyuri, Speranza seemed to want to take the baby Griffins to the Human world.
But it was not an easy matter.
If I take them carelessly then the same thing that happened to the children in the past may happen to the baby griffins.
“Speranza, do you remember being scolded by a scary Angel sister in the past?"
Speranza quickly remembered Ashmir and trembled.
I didn't want to recall the child's bad memories, but I explained it clearly to prevent mishaps like last time.
"If we take Grify and Finny as we please, then the baby griffins will get scolded by her. Maybe she'll take them away."
"Uh… I don't want her to take Grify and Finny, Papa."
"Then, let's leave them on the farm. Okay? You'll have a chance to take them next time."
"Um… Okay, Papa."
Speranza quickly accepted and nodded her head, perhaps the story of the scary Angel sister worked.
I felt sorry looking at her drooping appearance, so I patted her on the head.
"You're back, Sihyeon. I just finished packing."
Lia came down from the second floor with her luggage.
Unlike her usual calm appearance, her face was filled with a smile.
The winner of the lottery was Lia, the first Demon from the Demon farm to enter the Human world.
Not only Andras but also Alfred, who answered calmly earlier, had a little envy in the way they looked at her.
“Lia, are you ready?"
“Yes.”
“Let's say goodbye to the boss and leave.”
We all headed to Kaneff's room together.
– Knock, knock, knock!
– What?
"Boss! We came to greet you before we go."
– What greeting? Just go away.
A brusque voice of Kaneff was heard.
He has been like that ever since he was completely excluded from this mission.
It was hard to talk properly over the past few days.
I didn't want to leave without saying goodbye to him, so, I held Speranza in my arms to use as a last resort.
"Boss, Speranza wants to say goodbye before leaving."
The fox girl said, knocking on the door with her small hand.
"Boss uncle, don’t you want to say goodbye?"
CHUCK!
As soon as Speranza looked sad, the locked door opened.
When I opened the door, I saw KaneFF sitting with a wistful look.
“Are you still sulking, boss?”
“Hmm…”
“Come on relax. If you are like that Lia will also feel uncomfortable. I'll bring a lot of delicious snacks this time, too, huh?"
Kaneff’s eyes shook slightly at the snack talk, but he turned his head away as if he wasn't interested.
I can't help it.
It’s time to use the secret weapon!
When I lowered Speranza, whom I was holding, she ran to Kaneff.
And she raised her arms all the way up and showed a ‘hug me' posture.
At first, he looked away as if he was trying to ignore it but soon collapsed due to the glare of her eyes.
Kaneff slowly picked up Speranza.
The little fox girl naturally fell into his arms.
Their hair colors were similar, so in a sense, they looked more like a father and daughter than me.
"Boss uncle, are you upset that you couldn't go with papa?"
"Um…."
"Papa said that the scary sister would get mad if we went as we wanted. So I couldn't even take Grify and Finny."
"Scary sister?"
"Un, when I, Gyuri and Akum…"
Speranza started talking about the things that happened when she first moved to the Human world.
Kaneff's eyes were stunned when he heard that Ashmir tried to forcibly take away the children.
“Um… Was her name Ashmir?
“Un, a really scary sister, Boss uncle.”
“I see. I'd love to see her someday.”
Kaneff's anger at not being able to go to the Human world was directed toward the innocent Ashmir…
No, was she innocent?
Anyway, a bit of chill spread around Kaneff.
Except for Speranza, who was in his arms, everyone in the room trembled.
"Papa said he'd take Grify and Finny next time. Maybe that time I will also take boss uncle. So don't be angry, Boss uncle."
At Speranza's winsome plea, Kaneff burst into a smirk.
Then he stroked the fox girl in his arms with a relaxed face.
"Okay. I won't be angry like Speranza said."
"Hehe!"
After hearing the answer she wanted, Speranza rubbed her face in Kaneff's arms and shed a cute smile.
Looking at the scene, the rest of the people in the room were able to breathe a sigh of relief.
