How to get Healed at Demon Farm

How would you feel if something you thought would be difficult got solved so easily, or something you've been dreaming about suddenly happens?

The emotions I feel right now are a mixture of emptiness and bewilderment.

Although I worked hard on the farm. 

To be honest, I wasn't trying to achieve the goals that Ryan said.

There were a lot of things that I felt while interacting with the Yakums, and there was also a sense of accomplishment that I got from working.

So, I focused on the farm work in front of me without being conscious of the goal, but it was too absurd that the goal of Yakum's milking was successful just like that.

– Pow woo.

After drinking the milk Akum pulled my pants with his mouth.

Since he was not used to drinking from a bowl, there seemed to be quite a lot of milk spilled .

"Good job. Are you full now?"

Po wo woo..

Having satisfied his hunger, he looked around with sleepy eyes and headed towards the other siblings.

The three siblings gathered with their stomachs full and quickly fell asleep.

The three siblings were sleeping like angels and they looked so adorable. 

I quickly forgot about the pointless things. 

I took the enchanting scene as a picture with my cell phone.

On the way back to the farm building with an empty bowl, I met Lia coming out of the building.

In her hand was a basket full of washed laundry.

“Sihyeon. Where did you go with that bowl?” 

"Ah. That….Hermosa couldn’t give milk to Akum due to the difficulty in the posture. So she asked me to take milk and give it to baby Yakum.  ”

Lia glanced at my face and the empty vessel as if she didn't understand what I was saying.

“So….What were you saying?”

“The youngest of three siblings Akum…”

"No, not that, the last part."

“I milked Hermosa’s milk and gave it to Akum."

Lia dropped the basket she was holding in her hand on the floor with a shocked expression on her face. 

Then she went back into the building.

I was left alone. 

I cleaned up the laundry that had fallen to the ground with a sullen expression on my face.

About the time when I finished picking up all the things that fell, Lia brought out Kaneff, who had an excited expression on his face.

He quickly grabbed my shoulders and asked.

"Hey….Say it.! Is it true what Lia said?"

"Boss… Calm the excitement down a bit.”

“Did you really milk Yakum? I didn't hear it correctly, so please explain again!"

At Kaneff's request, I explained the situation a third time.

Lia burst into exclamations even though it was the second time she heard it, and Kaneff was able to fully express his feelings of joy, which is really rare sight.

And after a while.

Upon hearing the news, even Ryan and Andras rushed to the farm.

Kaneff frowned as he looked at Andras.

“I didn’t even contact you, so why did you come again? Isn't it still your working hours?"

“Why are you doing this only to me? Isn't Ryan here during his working hours too.?"

“Because Ryan doesn’t play around like you.”

"When did I play around…"

"Stop!  That isn’t important now.”

Ryan cut off the conversation between Kaneff and Andras, and turned his gaze to me.

“Sihyeon…. really….. Did you really milk Yakum yourself?"

"Yes. That's right…"

"Aaaah! Finally… finally!”

As soon as he heard my answer, Ryan mumbled to himself with a look of genuine excitement.

Andras also congratulated Ryan by patting Ryan on the shoulder with a happy expression.

At this reaction from the Demons, I started to get rather anxious.

It didn't seem like I did anything great, but the reaction was too loud and passionate.

The emotions of the Demons subsided little by little, and a certain desire began to fill their eyes.

And the gaze filled with that longing turned directly to me.

It was Ryan who spoke first.

“ Sihyeon. If possible, could you show it to me just once?"

“I’ll do it right away. But it may not be possible now, as I have to get permission from Hermosa.”

I could not refuse the eyes full of expectations of the Demons, so I took them and headed back to the barn.

The Demons could not enter the place where the baby Yakums were, so they decided to watch from a little distance away from the barn.

While the three siblings were taking a nap,Hermosa was sitting comfortably and relaxing.

– Boo woo woo.

Although it was a little far from the barn, Hermosa showed a slightly nervous look, perhaps because of the crowds of demons. 

"Sorry. Hermosa…… these people didn't come to do anything bad. Don’t worry too much.”

– Boo woo.

When I comforted her with a soft tone, Hermosa's tension softened slightly.

“Hermosa… I'm sorry to disturb you while you’re resting. Can you grant me one request?"

– Boo woo woo?

I asked Hermosa with apologetic feelings.

Then she got up from her seat and turned to the side as if she could understand my thoughts.

She got in the position so that I could milk her.

"Thank you. Sweetheart. I'll finish it soon."

I thanked her briefly and immediately started milking. 

It was just to show the Demons, and I also had to leave some for the three siblings meal. 

So I didn't squeeze out a lot.

I only put a little less than half on the bowl.

"It's over. Sorry to bother you. Take a break while babies are asleep.”

– Boo woo woo.

Hermosa rubbed my face and showed affection for a long time.

After petting her for a while with gratitude, I went back to the place where the demons were waiting.

The demons, who watched this process from afar, expressed their emotions more vividly than before.

When I showed them a bowl of still warm milk.

Ryan trembled as if he had seen a wonderful miracle.

I was at the center of all these things. 

I felt like I was being the head of some kind of a pseudo-religion.

I spoke up first to the demons who had been looking at the bowl intensely for several minutes.

“What should I do with this?”

“Come on, wait a minute. Andras, what do you have?"

"me? uh, wait for a moment……."

When Ryan looked at Andras, he panicked and began to rummage through his arms.

Metal plates, pieces of cloth, and equipment that doesn't seem to be found on Earth kept pouring out.

"Ah! it’s here."

Andras, who had been looking for a while, pulled out something from his pockets with a bright expression on his face.

It is glass jars the size of a hand.

“It’s an empty potion bottle, wouldn’t this be enough?”

The Demons who received the bowl carefully transferred the pure white milk into the empty potion bottle.

It took my breath away just watching how careful they were.

‘What the hell is Yakum’s milk?’ 

The appearance of the demons is very serious enough to raise questions like this in my mind.

After such careful work, six empty potion bottles were filled with pure white Yakum milk.

Andras put the potion bottle back into his pocket, carefully tucked it into his bosom, and nodded his head toward me.

"Thank you. Sihyeon. I would like to talk a little bit more, but there are many people waiting for the good news, so I will go first.”

He briefly greeted the rest of the Demons and headed for the empty lot on one side of the farm.

Whoosh!

Flash!

Then, using the Space Jump magic, he left the farm.

“Sihyeon! If it's okay, would you like to leave work early with me today?"

“pardon.?"

“Do you remember the thing I told you when you first came here? You have successfully accomplished your goal, so this time I have to keep my promise.”

"Ah.."

Ryan did not listen to my reply. 

He immediately asked for permission from Kaneff.

“Mr Kaneff. Will it be okay today?”

"Well. It's a pity that Sihyeon can't prepare dinner, but on a day like today, you can't force it. Do whatever you feel like."

"hahaha. Thank you. Sihyeon Shall we go then?”

“Would you mind waiting a moment? I'll prepare food for Hermosa and then I'll come."

I hurriedly moved to get dinner for Hermosa.

In the kitchen there was a dispute between Lia, who said she would cook dinner, and Kaneff, who tried to stop her.

⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩

I took the bankbook that I was holding in my hand and checked the balance in my account.

I've checked it over 5 times already, but I still couldn't feel it.

Is this real or is this a dream.

200 million in the account.

The debt from the bankruptcy of my father's farm and the debt from my mother's medical expenses were completely paid off.

The things that’s been choking me and my family over the years are being resolved with just a few changes in the numbers on my bankbook…….

Unbeknownst to me, laughter continued to flow. 

Soon, a familiar car approached me, who was standing blankly in front of the front door of the bank. 

“Sihyeon. Are you done with banking? I’ll give you a Ride.”

I got into Ryan's car once.

He smiled and spoke to me, who was still a bit dazed.

“Did you confirm the deposit?”

"Yes. Ryan. I don't know what to say… Thank you so much."

“You don't have to thank me. It’s all just a fair price for what Sihyeon has done.” 

"well. I don't think I did that much.” 

“Absolutely not! On the contrary, compared to what Sihyeon did, the reward is small.

“If it wasn't for the rules of this side of the world, I would have given more. I am so sorry.”

Ryan, who had a serious expression of regret, continued to speak with a bright expression again.

“How about having dinner together instead of talking like this? I'm a little sorry for Mr Kaneff, but shouldn't we celebrate with delicious food?" 

"sorry Ryan. I think I need to go home early today. Most of all, I want to tell my mother quickly."

Talking about my mother, I politely declined the offer.

Ryan nodded his head as if he couldn't help it. 

“Then there is nothing I can do. Can we just go to the address where I picked you up last time?"

“You don’t have to….”

“You turned down the dinner invitation, so I will do this on my own. Hahaha!"

Ryan with a cool smile drove his car to our house.

– Knock Knock!

At the sound of the front door opening I heard my mother's voice from inside.

“son? You came early.” 

"Yes. I had work outside, so I left work a little early.”

“What do you have in your hand?”

“A person I work with gave it to mom as a gift. Nutrients, multivitamins, and more.”

Putting down the gift that Ryan had forcefully handed over to me, I took out the bankbook from my pocket.

"Mom. This."

“What is this? All of a sudden, why a bankbook. Did you get any bonuses?”

"look." 

Mother's face spread great surprise as she opened the bankbook.

"What happened all of a sudden? Where do you get this much money?" 

“I got it at work. It’s a bit complicated to explain.”

I can't explain the work of the Demon Farm.

I told her a story made up of lies.

To the unbelievable story, my mother asked many times if it is okay to receive this money.

After explaining almost ten times that it’s fine, and that it’s absolutely not dangerous money, mother barely dispelled her suspicions.

"then….."

"Yes. That's right. We paid off everything from dad's farm debt to mom's medical bills. I’m just on my way from the bank.”

“That’s right. All debts……”

My mother had a face similar to mine a few hours before.

Then gradually her expression darkened, and tears began to form in her eyes.

“Mom, what happened ? What's wrong ?"

"No… I'm so happy… Huh!"

Unable to hold back her crying, mother ran into her room.

I tried to follow in with a worried heart, but the only  answer that came back was asking her to be left alone.

She was a woman who did not show her tears easily even when my father died or when we lost the farm, or when she suffered from cancer and was undergoing difficult treatment.

I did not understand mother's reaction at first.

But as I sat alone in the living room and remembered what we had experienced until now, I began to understand little by little how her feelings would be.

Our family had a difficult life because of this debt, and we had to endure a lot of things because of this debt.

But…. that debt is now gone.

It was as if all the emotions that had accumulated in mother's heart had poured out all at once.

We've been through many hard times.

She was the person who felt the most burden and endured many hardships. 

As time passed, the sobs that leaked out of the room became less and less.

I carefully opened the door and checked mother.

Mother dug herself deep into the blanket and fell asleep.

And in one of her hands was a picture of my father and mother together.

I carefully picked up the picture. The appearance of my father in the picture seemed unfamiliar to me.

It was a picture where my father was smiling.

Looking at Father in the picture,I said in a whisper.

“Dad. I did it. I've paid off all the debts. I think I will be able to repay all the money we borrowed from the villagers.”

The image of the smiling Father in the photo gradually blurred because of the tears started forming in my eyes.

 “Now we can start over, like you always said. It's late, but we will move to a better place, and do twice as much as I couldn't do to you dad to mom…Sorry dad..I wasn’t able to do anything, when you were fighting alone.”

The tears on my eyes started falling on the picture.

I wiped off the tears from the picture and carefully set the picture down on mother's bedside.

I pulled out the blanket, covered mother, and left the room.
