How to get Healed at Demon Farm -
Chapter 91
Creech Creech
A crunching sound echoed through the room.
Speranza, the owner of the sound, moved the pencil hard on the white paper.
Today is the day of the dictation test organized by Andras.
For the test, Speranza recently concentrated on studying, reducing her playing time.
She was serious, but a warm smile didn't leave my face and Andras' face watching her from the side.
When she saw a difficult problem, her fox's ears dropped down, and when she found the answer, she raised her ears again.
I thought I could tell the difficulty of the test just by looking at her ears.
I didn't care what grade Speranza got.
Of course, I would be happy If she got good grades, but it would be better if she felt rewarded with the results as much as she had put her efforts in.
Speranza wrote the answer until the end and put down the pencil.
“I'm done.”
“Then I'll check.”
Andras took the test paper from the desk and began to check the answer.
Speranza glanced at Andras with an anxious look.
It's not like I'm taking a test, but I felt nervous for no reason.
Andras quietly checked the test paper for a long time, and the corners of his eyes bent gently.
"Oh! That's amazing. You answered every question correctly."
"Really?"
Speranza asked back, surprised.
"Yes, it's a perfect score. There were some difficult questions, but they were all correct. You did a great job."
"Yay!"
Speranza raised her hands and rejoiced.
Then, she carefully accepted the test paper and ran straight to me.
"Papa, Papa! I got a perfect score. Great, isn't it?"
The little fox girl wagged her tail gently, and gave her a compliment.
I smiled at the cute figure, and lifted her up with both hands.
"Oh, my Speranza is amazing. How can you be so smart? My darling is a genius, genius!"
"Ehehehe."
Speranza blushed slightly, at my exaggerated praise.
"Now~! you should thank the teacher who taught you."
"Un!"
I dropped Speranza on the floor again.
She went in front of Andras and bowed her head.
"Thank you. Teacher!"
“You don’t need to thank me Speranza? On the contrary, I'm more grateful for your hard work in class."
"No, I wouldn't have got a perfect score if it wasn't for the teachings of the teacher."
"Hahaha, I'm so glad you said that."
Andras raised his big hand and carefully stroked his lovely pupil's head.
Speranza naturally accepted his hand.
"I'll go and tell Sister Lia."
Speranza ran out of the room before we could answer.
She wanted to show off her test paper, in which she got a perfect score as soon as possible.
We looked at the figure with satisfaction.
Andras muttered.
"Speranza… has changed a lot."
"Right, she has changed a lot."
When she first came to the farm, she injured me, I never imagined that relationship would be like this.
In the dark warehouse, Speranza opened her heart for the first time, and the relationship that gradually grew has reached this moment.
On the farm… no, she is the most precious thing in my life.
And now, Speranza has begun to settle down not only in my heart but also in the hearts of other farm members.
"Andras has changed a lot, too."
“Do you mean me?”
“Yes! I felt a little dark atmosphere around you when I first met you, but now I don't feel that way at all."
"Come to think of it, I remember when I first met Sihyeon. You were very surprised."
Oh, I remember.
I'm sorry to Andras, but my first impression of him was literally the worst.
I didn’t know much about the Demons at that time, so the big, dark atmosphere of his was quite scary.
I felt sorry for misunderstanding him at that time because I knew he was different from what he looked like.
"And you were very embarrassed to be called a teacher, weren't you?"
"It wasn't a big deal, but I felt it was such a big responsibility."
"You were very happy about that. Right ?"
Andras scratched his head awkwardly.
"Did it show? Teaching was more fun than I thought. It was an unexplainable experience seeing the disciple you teach grow little by little."
"I know how you feel. Maybe this is more suited for you. You taught her well. If you had become a teacher, you would have been a very good teacher.
Andras waved his hands shyly at my compliment.
At that moment, the relaxed atmosphere got interrupted by the sound of an Alarm
Beep! Beep!Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!
A sharp warning sound came from Andras.
"What is it?"
"It's an intruder alarm that I set up in the strawberry farm storage."
"Alarm?"
"Yes, but it's weird. It's time for the Beast-people villagers to be working…"
As he said, it was time for the Beast-people from the Elden village to be working in the strawberry farm.
But there's an intruder?
"It could be a malfunction, so I'll go check it myself."
"I'm coming with you. Speranza was going to go to the strawberry field after the test anyway."
"Okay. So let's go down."
We hurried downstairs and went to the strawberry field.
⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩
When we arrived at the strawberry field, Gyuri welcomed us first.
"Hey! Sihyeon and the big Demon! popi"
"Hey, Gyuri. Did anything strange happen in the strawberry field?"
"Strange thing, popi? Oh! Come to think of it, it's been very noisy since a while ago. Popi"
"It was noisy?"
"Yes, yes popi! It seemed like someone was fighting, popi!"
While talking to Gyuri for a moment, an angry shout came from not far away.
"Are you saying that as an excuse?"
This voice was… Reville's voice?
I followed the voice and moved hastily.
Andras followed me.
When we reached the spot, there was Reville grabbing someone by the collar with both hands.
" Reville? What the hell's going on?"
"You're here, Sihyeon."
"Yes, I came down in a hurry because the intruder alarm went off in the strawberry storage."
"Hmm…"
Reville suppressed his anger.
Even those who would have greeted me happily if it were usual, were awkward and timid.
Judging from the atmosphere, it didn't seem to be a malfunction of the alarm.
"Oh! I guess he's the owner of the strawberry field. It's an honor to meet you Sir!"
A cat Beast-man held by Reville by the collar, greeted me gently.
Compared to Reville, who was also the Beast-man of the same species, he looked a little sharper and slimmer.
I know all the faces of Beast-people coming to the strawberry field, but he was completely new to me.
I was about to answer the polite greeting, but Reville grabbed him roughly once again and shook him by the collar.
"Don't talk nonsense to Sihyeon, Derick! You're still out of your mind!!"
He was extremely agitated and violently pushed a Beast-man named Derick.
Nevertheless, Derick responded rather slyly.
"Ah! It's really a misunderstanding, Brother Revillele, why are you so angry?"
"It’s because you have been hanging around the strawberry storage which has nothing to do with you?"
"I just looked around out of curiosity."
"You think I don't know what you're up to? You're here to steal strawberries, aren't you?"
"Hahahah, do you have proof?"
“You crazy b*tch!”
As the agitated Reville raised his fist, several people around him surrounded him.
"Reville, calm down."
“Sir Sihyeon is here too, what’s the deal with this?”
"Don't you guys see him playing tricks?"
“OK, just stop it, stop it!"
The men rushed in and separated the two.
Reville was surrounded by several people but he couldn't calm down.
Derick, on the other hand, smiled leisurely and trimmed his clothes.
Looking at the situation, it seemed that the reason why the alarm in the storage room went off was because of the Beast-man Derick.
"Sir Sihyeon, I'm sorry for causing such a disturbance."
"Elder Poco!"
Elder Poco approached me and bowed politely.
"What happened, Elder?"
"The first person to come to the strawberry field today must have touched the entrance to the storage area. He said he was curious and he tried to open it."
"That's all right, well… he could have made a mistake. By the way, I've never seen Derick. Is he new to the village?"
"He is a resident who originally lived in Elden village. He went out to the city to make money, but recently he came back."
"Why is Revillele so angry when he's from the same village? From the conversation, it sounds like they even know each other.”
"Hmm… That's…."
Elder hesitated and couldn't open his mouth easily.
I could quickly see that there was something complicated.
"Sihyeon, I'll check the status of the alarm that I installed in the storage."
"Thank you. Andras."
Andras took a hint and left.
When we were left alone, Elder Poco opened his mouth with difficulty.
"Derick……that guy's been hanging out with some shady guys in the city. Revillele says he has committed a number of crimes with them."
"Hmm."
"They were very close when they were young. But after seeing what Derick was doing in the city, Reville cut off the ties with him…"
"That's why Reville was so angry at the mistake."
"It's not a mistake!"
Reville strode over here.
He breathed heavily, as if his anger had not subdued up yet.
“He's obviously here for strawberries.”
“Calm down. There wasn't any damage to the storage."
"You shouldn't think that way. I know him well. I should have stopped him from coming here in the first place…"
He crumpled his face and vented his anger.
While I was confused by the not so usual emotional appearance of Reville, someone approached me and pulled my clothes.
BOW
“Ah? Miru what happened.?!"
“I'm sorry, Uncle…”
Miru apologized with her ears and tail drooping.
I couldn't help but be confused by Miru's sudden drooping appearance.
I asked, lowering my body and making eye contact with Miru.
"Huh? Why are you sorry, Miru?""
“Uncle Derick followed me.”
“Uncle?”
NOD.
"That's Miru's mother’s younger brother. My uncle, to be exact."
“So he followed Miru?”
“Yes. He insisted on checking where I was working and followed me."
"Hmm."
"I said he shouldn't get close to the storeroom. I'm so sorry.”
"It's okay, it's okay."
Miru apologized for his uncle's fault in a tearful voice.
I hugged Miru and patted her gently on the back.
She seemed to blame herself for failing to stop her uncle's bad behavior.
I was proud of such an adult appearance of the child, but on the other hand, I felt sorry for her.
Perhaps she felt more guilty knowing her uncle's usual bad behavior.
I turned my head slightly and looked at the man in question.
He was chatting with the villagers with a completely innocent face.
The irresponsible look made me feel bitter.
Don't judge a person by his first impression.
I remembered the conversation I had with Andras a while ago.
I thought for a moment.
He made his niece apologize in his stead, and was chatting as if nothing happened!
I couldn't give a good evaluation to Derick.
It seems like an uninvited guest came to the strawberry field.
