The time has come, to reduce feeding milk to the three baby Yakum siblings. 

So they started to follow Hermoza and graze little by little. 

I'll miss the days I spent taking care of their meals. 

I was free and able to relax a bit, but I wasn't happy. 

Everyday feeding milk to the siblings was a precious time for me. 

As days went by, I felt empty in my heart. 

Even now, I was looking blankly at the baby yakums grazing and calming my empty heart. 

While I was in the middle of a rapture, Bighorn came to me. 

I looked a little surprised since it was rare for Bighorn to approach me first. 

"Huh? Bighorn, what's the matter?" 

Boo Wo wooo. 

Bighorn delivered his message with a small cry. 

I soon understood what he meant. 

"Ah! You're thinking of going out to graze soon?" 

Boo wo wooo 

Apparently Bighorn was planning to lead the pack to the area with fresh grass after a long time. 

It would be a good experience for the three siblings who are just beginning to graze, and Chorongi, who was about to give birth. 

"All right, Bighorn."

Boo wo woo. 

"I'm bored, can we talk more?" 

Bighorn turned away without answering my suggestion. 

He returned coolly as if he had finished his business. 

“What a heartless fellow?” 

I giggled at the back of Bighorn. 

I leaned my back against the fence and looked up at the sky. 

When I first came to Demon Farm, I felt chilly, but now the season seems to be the beginning of summer. 

I followed Yakum and met Speranza during our first outing. 

‘Did I find Speranza behind a small rock?’ 

Memories of the past flashed in front of my eyes. 

Speranza came, met fairies and honeybees, made a strawberry field, Andras and Alfred became the new farm members. 

Memories were vivid as if they had happened yesterday. 

While I was feeling sentimental, an idea suddenly crossed my mind. 

Come to think of it, I've never had a get-together with the farm members. 

We ate together at the dinner table, but it could not be regarded as getting together and spending time. 

After joining the Guardians Guild recently. 

Team 3 and Jin had a get-together dinner. 

We had already established a strong comradeship in the cave, but after the get-together, we seemed to have gotten a little closer. 

I had a lot of fun at the get-together dinner party, so I thought it would be nice to spend such a time with the farm members. 

‘Well, I don't think cooking something in the dining room will bring out the atmosphere… …then what should… …ah…. picnic!’ 

Picnic sounds good! 

How about following the Yakums tomorrow? 

We can just load what we need in the wagon and follow them, right? 

I organized my plans for the farm picnic one by one in my head. 

⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩

"A picnic?" 

"Yes! We haven't had anything to unite the farm members and spend leisure time together. The weather has been perfect lately, what do you all think?" 

The farm members looked puzzled as if the concept of picnic felt unfamiliar. 

Speranza also asked with curious eyes when she heard the word Picnic for the first time. 

"Papa. What's a picnic?" 

"The people who work together go out together, eat delicious things, have fun, and spend the day." 

Originally, the purpose was to promote unity and friendship among the members, but I explained it to Speranza as easily as possible. 

But Speranza's expression suddenly became sad. 

"What Speranza darling. What happened?" 

"Then I can't go. Speranza doesn’t work with Papa?" 

I looked blank for a moment at the unexpected response. 

Soon I came up with a witty answer. 

"No, Speranza helps me with the garden. So it's okay."

Fortunately, Speranza's expression brightened up. 

"Then Speranza wants to go on a picnic too!" 

Speranza shouted excitedly. 

I stroked Speranza's hair and turned my eyes toward others. 

"I'm in. I thought it was a little stuffy since I was only on the farm lately." 

Lia expressed her intention to join the picnic. 

She already seemed to be expecting delicious food. 

"I am also in Sihyeon." 

"……." 

Andras too responded positively. 

Alfred remained silent, but he didn't look particularly unhappy. 

It seemed like he would follow other people's opinions. 

All three were likely to attend the picnic. 

And the only one left was… 

"Why bother going out? We can cook delicious food here. It’s tiresome and waste of energy" 

Lia asked with a slightly disappointed look. 

"Are you not coming, Mr. Kaneff?" 

"If you're going, you can go on your own. I'll relax here." 

As expected, Kaneff refused to participate openly with a pesky look. 

The faces of those who were excited by the picnic cooled down in an instant. 

His senseless act of pouring cold water on the atmosphere seemed so mean. 

But what can we do? 

It's annoying that he's also a member of our farm. 

I did not want to create a person who was alienated from a picnic where unity and friendship between members were important. 

And I was also a person who had been subjected to the Boss's arbitrary personality. 

This level of difficulty was well anticipated. 

I wanted to save this trump card as much as I could, but… I can't help it! 

“Hmm? You're not going to come, are you?” 

“I'm tired. Just bring me some food for later. Don't eat it all by yourself." 

“Oh, that's too bad. This is the first get-together of the farm members, so I was going to prepare a lot of this and that… …and of course, including alcohol." 

I slipped a very appetizing bait. 

"…….?!" 

A slight shake occurred in Kaneff's face, which was full of annoyance. 

I sneaked a look at his expression and went on. 

"Delicious food needs to be eaten right away. And with alcohol on top of that…We can't help it. Let's leave the Boss behind and go on our own. . . .” 

"No, wait! Are you sure you're bringing a drinks?" 

Kaneff started to react. 

Kaneff had long wondered about the alcohol in the world I lived in. 

He once asked me as a request, but I refused every time. 

It was because I personally didn't like bringing alcohol to work, and I was worried that something troublesome would happen. 

"A moderate amount of alcohol is essential for socializing. We have a lot of soul stones this time, so I will prepare them as grand as possible." 

Unexpectedly, I was able to get a lot of Soul stones because of catching the Queen Ant. 

There was no need to worry about Soul stones for a while. 

Kaneff pondered seriously and opened his mouth with difficulty. 

"I'm coming, too." 

“ Where…?”

“…..The Picnic.”

"What? You don't have to force yourself to come. If you're uncomfortable, you can relax at farm." 

"Shut up! I'll definitely come !" 

Kaneff replied slightly annoyed and turned his head away. 

A triumphant smile formed on my mouth. 

As I easily solved the stubborn troublemaker, the farm members gave me a look of surprise and admiration. 

⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩

As soon as the picnic was confirmed, preparations began immediately. 

I also invited Ryan to attend the picnic… 

"A picnic? Is Mr. Kaneff attending too? 

"Yes, the whole farm members decided to attend." 

"Haha, Sihyeon's handling of Mr. Kaneff is getting better day by day." 

He burst into laughter with genuine admiration. 

“How about you Ryan.? Can you attend?”

“Ah! I'd really like to attend, but I've been very busy with work lately, so I'm sorry." 

"Well, then it can't be helped. Too bad." 

"There will be another chance. Take this instead." 

Ryan took his wallet out and handed me a card. 

“It's an office credit card. Use it to buy what you need for the picnic." 

"Oh! You don't have to give it to me…" 

"Sihyeon, it must be hard to prepare by yourself, so I'll give you this much. Please feel free to use it." 

I was moved by Ryan's consideration. 

His handsome smile struck my heart even more. 

⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩

Thanks to the corporate card given by Ryan, I was able to start preparing for the picnic without any burden. 

The most important ingredient is delicious food! 

I went to the mart right away and looked at the ingredients for the picnic. 

First thing to prepare should be meat, right? 

Hmm, it's for outdoors, so should I should prepare something for a barbecue? 

Warmth filled my heart when I imagined burning charcoal and grilling various ingredients in a scenic outdoor. 

Great! Let's have a barbecue for this picnic. 

As soon as I made a decision, I quickly started looking for food ingredients. 

Thick pork meat suitable for barbecue, pre-cooked assorted skewers, plump shrimp, mushrooms, vegetables, etc. 

As I chose delicious-looking things one by one, food ingredients piled up in my cart. 

I suddenly felt sad while choosing food ingredients. 

It would have been more fun if I could shop with the farm members.

Will there be a day where I could go shopping with all the farm members? 

I thought of shopping with the farm members in my head. 

Just imagining it made my heart flutter a lot. 

After standing there for a while, I shook my head and came back to reality. 

I came to my sense again and went around the mart looking for things I needed for the picnic. 

⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩

The morning of the picnic dawned. 

I was worried about the weather, but fortunately, it turned out to be very nice weather with a warm and cool wind. 

When I got to work early in the morning, the farm family was already up and getting ready.

Lia arranged the ingredients in advance, and Alfred fed the horses to lead the carriage today. 

Andras took out the items I had asked for, checked them one by one. 

Although they didn't show much, their faces were full of excitement as if they were all looking forward to the picnic. 

Normally, Speranza would have been lying in bed, but today, she woke up from bed early, washed up quickly, and changed her clothes. 

Rather, she finished preparing first and began to press me with sparkling eyes. 

The little fox girl's cunning figure made me laugh out loud. 

Food ingredients and drinks were carefully placed in an ice box. 

When I loaded the necessary items into the wagon, the luggage compartment was full. 

While we were busy preparing for the picnic, the Yakums moved busily and prepared to leave. 

By the time Kaneff appeared at a snail's pace, we had loaded all his luggage into the carriage and finished preparing. 

The cry of Bighorn rang out. 

The Yakums and the carriage began to move, matching his cry.
