How to get Healed at Demon Farm

Chapter 3

After more than an hour of hellish struggle, I arrived at the Inferis Office.

Knock, knock, knock. 

Come on in. Mr.Sihyeon. 

When I opened the office door and entered, an ordinary human-looking Ryan sat at the desk and greeted me. 

"You came much earlier than the time I told you." 

The time Ryan told me to come to work was 9 am.

The time I arrived at the office was a little past eight.

"Yes. I came out a little earlier today to check the subway time." 

"It's not bad to be diligent since it's your first day at work." 

I felt uncomfortable at the words of Ryan praising me. 

Ordinary office workers may seem diligent at around 8 o'clock, but for those who worked on the farm they were being lazy.

If it was my father he would have cursed at me.

I went to work early today not only because of the subway time, but also because I was worried about this. 

"You brought a lot of things in your bag". 

Can you tell me what's in it?"

I brought a change of clothes and a few things necessary for work. I have candy in my pocket to eat while I work, Ah.! I didn't know if lunch would be provided, so I also prepared a packed lunch." 

"Ah. Lunch is served on the farm. They do prepare it for you, but maybe it's a wise choice to prepare a lunchbox." 

Ryan left a bit of a lingering impression. 

There was a question about his reaction for a while, but it didn't seem important, so I turned it over lightly.

"Here. Take this." 

"That's the interpreter ring I used last time." 

"Because you can't talk without this. I'd like to let you carry it around if possible, but it's a very valuable item. It's cumbersome, but please return it when you get off work."

"Okay." 

Are you ready for your first day at work?"

Ryan showed a unique and charming smile, leading me to the pantry. 

And he opened the door in the corner and took a posture as if he was seeing me off.

You know the way to the farm, right? 

"Huh?" 

Wasn't Mr.Ryan coming with me?" 

"I sometimes help with farm work, but this is my workplace."

"Oh"

When I heard that I had to go alone, I suddenly felt dark.

This is because I remembered the two people, a man like a sheep and a maid like a doll, who I saw on the farm.

I'm nervous. 

Unlike Ryan, the two don't seem to be interested in me.

Ryan added, perhaps noticing my anxiety. 

"You don't have to worry too much. They might be little eccentric, but they're not bad people." 

"I'm not worried" 

"Ha ha. That's a relief." 

Embarrassed by the fact that Ryan realized what I was thinking, I began to move quickly.

Hmmhave a great day 

Ryan too.

"Yes. I'll see you when you get off work."

After a short greeting, I moved towards the dark space. 

With the feeling of being sucked in that I experienced last time, I quickly became distracted. 

When I opened my eyes again, I arrived at a familiar cave. 

This time, I quickly came to my senses and headed straight to the exit.

As soon as I left the exit of the cave, fresh air and sunlight greeted me.

"Haaah. I'm back." 

The chilly morning air was similar, but, it was full of pleasant moisture and freshness that could not be felt in the city.

While enjoying Mother Nature, I placed my hand into my pocket and took my phone. 

On the screen of the cell phone that was taken out, No signal was displayed.

As expected, the phone doesn't work. 

When I got home, I thought I had to explain to my mother separately that it will be difficult to talk to her while working. 

I put my cell phone back in and took a step towards the farm.

Walking along the long fence, I looked around to see if there was the big cow like animal which I saw last time, but unfortunately, I couldn't find it. 

I arrived at the farm building and carefully knocked on the door.

Not long after, the Maid, who I saw last time opened the door.

She greeted me in a calm manner.

Welcome. we've been waiting." 

"Hello." 

Mr.Kaneff is waiting inside, so I'll guide you there first."

Without having time to bring up anything else, she led me somewhere on the first floor.

There was a grey -haired man in the room that I followed her. 

He tilted his chair back as much as possible, and was sleeping with his legs on the side of the table. 

"Mr. Kaneff". I brought Mr.Sihyeon.

The man did not respond to the Maid's words for a while.

By the time I felt something strange, his eyelids moved slowly.

"Ugh. Haaa." 

He stretched with a big yawn. 

The chair shook as if it would fall due to the recoil of both arms that stretched out, and strangely, the man was stably centred. 

It was like watching a stunt performance. 

The man who opened his eyes half-closed turned to me.

Both eyes were full of annoyance as before. 

"Hey, human." 

Ye.yes?

"First of all, I allowed to bring you in accordance with Ryan's opinion, but I didn't do it because I liked it. In the first place, I'm completely different from the Ryan."

"But I don't intend to disturb or stop you. I don't care what you do as long as you don't do anything dangerous.

Um Is this a good thing? 

Is it bad? 

It was a little unpleasant to see him spit out as if he was not interested at all, but on the other hand, it was difficult to express dissatisfaction with doing what he wanted.

"Any other questions?"

Originally, I prepared a question about farm work, but seeing the situation, it seemed meaningless.

"There's nothing special. Can I call you Kaneff..? Or do you have any other names?" 

"Hmm. In this case, what do you call it in your world?."

HmmmaybeBoss?" 

"Then call me that from now on." 

"Okay. Boss.

At the end of this conversation, Kaneff closed his eyes again. 

Me and the maid quietly left the room.

Mr.Sihyeon. Then please follow me." 

I followed the Maid again.

The place I arrived following her was a room in the center of the second floor of the building. 

Inside the fairly spacious room, there were desks, bookshelves, closets, and beds.

It was clean without any dust, as if no one had touched it. 

"Then rest in this place." 

No.., wait a minute." 

I caught the Maid, who was about to leave.

"Do you need anything else?" 

No, it's not that. I'm not here to rest."

?

In the first place, she seemed to think of me as a complete guest. 

I thought I couldn't do it like this, so I came out a little more aggressive.

"If you're not busy, can you show me around the farm?

" Okay." 

"Thank you Ms.LiLiane?

Is it right.?

"You can just call me Lia."

Okay Lia 

Yes, well then, Lets start the tour right away." 

I roughly threw my luggage into the corner and started looking around the farm with Lia.

The first place I looked around was inside the house. 

The structure was an ordinary two-story house, and the only peculiar thing was that some household goods  used magic. 

Next, I left the house and headed to a large barn nearby. 

The barn had never been used, and it was the same as a completely built new building.

"Have you never used this?"

Ah..yes.?

It was originally made for the group of Yakum, but they are so sensitive that they never even entered or came near the barn.

Okay..

Leaving behind the lonely barn, we headed to the back of the two-story building. 

There were two stables and a building that looked like a warehouse. 

Perhaps feeling our presence, two horses popped out of the stable.

NEIGH..NEIGH 

Wow"

The two, dark red and brown furred horses, were similar to Earth's horses. 

Only strange thing is that, there were two horns growing on the head of the horse. 

I was looking at them with a curious eyes when one of the horses eyes met with mine.

[Trying to communicate with the Demon beast] 

[The target is vigilant against you]

[The target feels hungry ]

I was Surprised by the voice that suddenly rang in my head.

I soon realized that this was due to my awakening ability. 

Hmmm. How can I use this? 

As I pondered over the voice that resonated in my head, I gently asked Lia a question.

Lia, Isn't it time to feed them?

She was startled by my question and let out a small burst of exclamation. 

Oh..my.! Time has already passed I forgot while I guiding you." 

And she looked at me with a mixture of surprise and admiration. 

"How did you know?"

Its just.. I grew up on a farm since I was a child, so I have a good connection with animals. 

Lia's eyes gleamed with genuine admiration at my rough words. 

Contrary to her calm first impression, her pure childlike reaction felt a bit fresh. 

And I felt proud of myself as I seemed to understand at least a little bit of how to use my new ability. 

Sorry Sihyeon. Please wait for a while and I will finish it soon.

She opened the closed stable and led the two horses out. 

Can I help you? 

Pardon? 

I will be working here for a while anyway. I think it would be good to learn it. Don't you think..?

Um Then please. 

Thank you.!

At her request, I began to work on the stable together with Lia. 

First, Lia led the two horses to a place full of fresh grass.  

In the meantime, I started cleaning the empty stables. 

As I was told in advance, I brought a cart and cleaning tools from the storage next door, and then cleaned up the dirt on the floor of the stable.

Considering my father's farm which was quite large, cleaning up this little stable was really easy for me. 

By the time Lia returned from tying the horses near the pool, I had finished cleaning up. 

Are you done already? I haven't told you anything yet."

"Haha. I have experience working on a farm, so I have to be smart about this. Just make sure whether I did it right.  

This is enough. rather you seem to be doing great."

Again, the emotion of admiration was seen on her calm face. 

She shrugged, feeling a little dejected.  

After cleaning, the stables were filled with food and clean water for the horses.

The two horses were brought back to the stables.

Hihhiiin.. 

Did they like the clean stables? 

The horses began to eat naturally with a pleasant cry. 

At the same time, I watched the horses eating with pleasure.

Lia. Can I feed them myself? 

Um,okay, but dont make loud movements or shout. They are more timid than you think. 

The horse checked the food in my hand and poked its head towards me. 

When the bigger horns came closer than I expected, I almost shuddered without realizing it.

Sniff, sniff. 

After sniffing for a while, the guy grabbed the food in my hand and bit it.

While eating, I gently stroked the guy's head with my opposite hand. 

Although he had been vigilant, he didn't avoid my touch, and after that I started feeding him very comfortably.

"Yeah. Yeah. Eat well. Would you like more?" 

Purleung Purreung. 

By the time they finished eating, the brown horse as well as the dark red horse stopped avoiding my touch completely. 

Then suddenly a voice echoed in my head again

[Intimacy with the Demon beast has increased.] 

[The target shows interest' in you.]

[Subject is satisfied with satiety.]

I smiled at the pleasant feeling of fullness that I felt throughout my body. 

I was able to realize a little bit of what kind of power my ability has.

It communicates with the beast with my sympathise ability, and based on that, it increases the intimacy. 

Right now, it's only at a low level of interest'. 

A little higher seemed to have a different effect. 

While enjoying the afterglow of the warm energy that slowly disappeared. 

Lia's completely excited voice, was heard.

"Uh, how did you do it?"
