How to get Healed at Demon Farm

At the series of unexpected events, my head got filled with confusion and I trembled slightly.

"Why did he do that all of a sudden…….”

Hargan and the others, I know that they had outstanding skills, but it was obviously arrogant to think that they could take on Yakums.

If they could be taken care of so easily, the Demon Lord Castle wouldn’t have been making this much fuss in the first place.

Even if there are many Yakums who are hurt in the group, Yakums are still Yakums, demon beasts that are classified as highly dangerous in the Demon world. It is not an opponent they can defeat with confidence.

"Why on earth would they do such a reckless thing? Don't they know what Yakums are like?"

"I don't know either."

Diur also shook his head with a look of confusion.

When everyone was confused and speechless, Ryan stepped up and tried to sort things out.

"Does the chief know about this?"

"Yes, I first reported to him before coming here."

"What are you going to do?"

" I’ve picked up the warriors who are quick on their feet and made them go after them. We told them to warn them that the Chief has ordered them to stop the attack, but…… In this situation, there is a high possibility that the chief's order will be ignored."

"I guess so. They've been unhappy with the chief's decision from the beginning after all."

Not only us, but everyone in the village knew that Hargan was unhappy with the chief.

Everyone tried to ignore his rebellious and rude attitude and let it go, but we never expected he would make such an extreme choice.….

"And we're gathering people to follow after Hargan. They are important warriors who are indispensable to the village even though they made the worst decision. The warriors are packing their gear for the worst."

It would be fortunate if Hargan's actions ended in a simple protest, but if the situation gets worse, something really irreversible will happen.

Not only will everything I've worked so hard until now go to dust, but also we can't guarantee the safety of the Dragon demons who have been here for a long time.

In a serious situation, Ryan rose from his seat with a heavy expression.

"Okay, since it's a serious situation. I will also join along with the Demon Lord’s soldiers."

"I'll also come with you."

I also stood up from my seat, expressing my intention to join. For a moment, I could feel the concern in Ryan's eyes. However, he nodded his head and allowed me to join.

Diur's expression brightened a little at our positive attitude. He left the room first, saying that he would finish preparing the warriors quickly.

The rest of us in the room also started preparing to leave.

Lia grabbed my arm, as I was about to leave the room.

"SIHYEON! Please let me come with you."

"Lia?"

"Please.”

I felt a strong emotion in her eyes looking at me. For a moment, I remembered the conversation we had before Diur’s arrival.

-……I think it’s my father.

Lia identified the Dragon demon who attacked Yakums as her father.

I don't know what complicated story there is between her and her father. However, I was intuitively convinced that it would be an important link in this case.

I wondered whether I should take her with me, or whether not to take her in this emotional state.

The agony did not last long.

"All right, Lia. Let's go."

⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩

"Everyone, let's go!"

Following Diur's order at the forefront, the Dragon demon warriors began to move.

At the back of the line, following the warriors were Ryan, I, Lia, and the soldiers brought from the Demon Lord Castle.

"It would have been reassuring if Boss was here at a time like this."

"That's right. Where did he go all of a sudden.….”

I looked for Kaneff for help, but I couldn't find him. He was said to be with Speranza during dinner, but his whereabouts after that were not known.

In the midst of a rush at one o'clock, I didn’t have the time to search for Kaneff, so I had no choice but to leave a message to the Dragon demons in the village for him.

As soon as we left the village, a thick darkness surrounded us. I was able to continue my steps because of the moon that rose brightly without clouds.

Overcoming the unparalleled cold when the sun was up, we chased after Hargan.

As I walked like crazy, I began to see familiar scenery around me. It was near where the Yakum group was staying.

"Hahaha! Did you finally arrive?"

Hargan, who had arrived in advance, welcomed us leisurely. It was as if he had waited for us to follow.

"Hargan! What are you doing? Moving the village warriors without the chief's permission!”

"Chief? That cowardly old fool who licks the Demon Lord’s feet."

"HARGANNN!!! Mind what you’re saying…….”

Diur trembled with anger at Hargan's remarks that crossed the line.

"Following a coward's order is nothing short of a disgrace to the warrior of our tribe! I have already found a true leader who will lead us."

"A true leader?"

"Yes! We gathered here at his command. And from this moment on, we will get out of the shadow of the Demon Lord and announce the existence of the Dragon demons to the world."

"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

The enthusiastic declaration was cheered by the Dragon demons who followed Hargan.

– Boo Wooo wooooooo!

– Boooooooo Wooooooo!

– Booooooooooooooooo!

The Yakums who were nearby cried out with hostility. They seemed to rush at any moment if they went any closer.

"This…… It's not good."

Ryan, who was watching Hargan's action, frowned. As he said, things are taking bad turns.

Hargan and the warriors burned their fighting spirit with unexpected confidence, and the Yakums were extremely agitated looking at the sight.

Diur had no idea what to do.

In the chaotic atmosphere where everything was a mess, Lia murmured.

"……Coming."

"What?"

"He's coming,"

"Lia, what is…….”

Lia said something incomprehensible while looking at the sky. Naturally, I followed her gaze and looked, and not long before a strange change happened.

– CREE…CREEEEEK

The space began to crack with the sound of the glass breaking. The crack, which grew little by little, reached a point where a person could pass by.

"Look closely, everyone! HE'S COMING. Our new leader." exclaimed the excited Hargan, looking at the crack.

WURRRR

An ominous energy poured out through the gap in the space, and after a while, a Dragon demon appeared amidst everyone's gaze.

Loose hair and shabby clothes, an impression so strong that could be remembered even in blurry vision, and the overwhelming energy that's flowing around him…….

It was the Dragon demon that I saw in Yakum's memory. He slowly looked around, floating in the air. The last place where his eyes stopped was exactly where Lia was.

"Father…"

I flinched at Lia's little murmur. It seemed like that Dragon demon was really her father.

"Lord Gastra, I did everything as you wanted,"

Hargan shouted loudly to attract the attention of the Dragon demon. The man named Gastra glanced at Hargan.

"Well done, Hargan."

"Lord Gastra, as you promised, that power! Give us the great power of chaos!"

"Hmm, did I make that promise?”

In the lukewarm attitude of Gastra, Hargan hurriedly continued.

"Lord Gastra…… Didn't you say that if we use Yakum to bring them here, you will give us the power of chaos in return?"

Bring them here?

By any chance, was this a trap that the Dragon demon named Gastra made for us?

Our faces stiffened when we realized that we had been deceived by their scheming.

Diur was angrier than before when he realized that Hargan had betrayed them.

"Hargan! Are you saying that you put the village in danger on purpose for your greed? Can you call yourself a Dragon demon warrior?”

"I have no shame in my actions. This is all to drive out the cowards who are lying down at the feet of the Demon Lord, this is to restore the glory of the Red Scales tribe!"

Hargan rationalized his actions with a brazen face.

"Lord Gastra! Please give us the strength you promised. I'll take care of those monster Yakums with my own hands, and I'll set an example for the cowards. And I will accept Lord Gastra as the leader of our tribe."

"If it’s promised, you should keep it.”

– Whistle!

-CLING! -CLANG!

-CLING! -CLANG!

Red chains poured out of the cracks at Gastra's beckoning. Everyone took a step back, startled by the tremendous energy in the chain.

Only Hargan and the Dragon demon warriors who followed him looked at the chains with an ecstatic look.

"Hargan, is this the power you wanted?"

"YES, that's right."

"Take it if you want. Instead…."

Gastra interrupted and waved again. Then the red chain went in the direction of the Yakums, not Hargan.

-CLING! -CLANG!

BoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooWooooooooooooooooooWooooooooooooooooooo!

The Yakum herd twisted their bodies to reject the looming red chain. But the red chain persistently wrapped around the Yakum herd, and one by one dug into the body.

Hargan looked at Gastra with a puzzled expression.

"Lord Gastra…… What in the world……?”

"Didn't I tell you… I'm gonna teach those cowards a lesson. Then you have to prove yourself that you're not a coward, right?”

“…….”

"There's the power you wanted. If you're not a coward, knock them down yourself and take it."

"Lo..rd Gastra…….”

Hargan's face kept getting paler. Gastra looked down at him with a mocking expression.

– BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

– BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

The night sky got filled with cries of anger. Now Yakum's eyes only had hostility and madness in them.

"Everyone, get ready for battle! Prepare for Yakum's attack!"

Diur ordered the warriors to prepare for the battle, and soon everyone gathered together in perfect formation.

"Sihyeon!"

Ryan called me with eyes asking for me to do something. But I was so confused by everything that was happening and couldn’t make any judgment.

Looking sideways, Lia was still staring blankly at the Dragon demon Gastra.

– BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

– BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Dozens of Yakums began to charge. The appearance gave fear and intimidation as if a huge tsunami was coming. On top of that, their eyes glistening with madness stimulated more fear.

It seemed far from sufficient to calm the Yakums by using my ability to communicate. The situation, which was getting worse every second made me dizzy.

What the hell am I supposed to do? I’m just a farmer.
