How to get Healed at Demon Farm

"Oh, my. You're are really good at getting involved in dangerous situations". 

“ Do you remember the words you said when you came to the Demon farm for the first time.”

“………….”

“ You asked whether the job is dangerous. The irony is, you are the one that’s dangerous.”

While Lia was disinfecting the injured hand on one side, Kaneff’s words kept injuring my ears and heart on the other side.

“ Tch….Lia it hurts…”

“ Of course, it will hurt. Where did this common sense go when you kept still, while that fox was biting you.”

Kaneff’s and Lia’s outburst doesn’t seem to come to an end.

But it’s true that I was wrong.

If I get injured a huge hole will be formed in the farm work, and I didn’t think about it.

So I just listened to Kaneff’s and Lia’s scoldings, while keeping my head down.

“ Tch….that damn fox…To bite the hand that feeds..” 

Kaneff looked at my wounds while clicking his tongue. 

The skin and flesh were so ragged that the bones were visible. 

"The wound is deeper than I thought. At this rate, farm work will be hard." 

"The other hand is fine. There's no problem…. I can roughly apply medicine and bandage it. Then I will go to wor…..” 

"If you keep talking nonsense like that, I'll sew your mouth before your wound." 

By the time Lia finished disinfecting the wound, Andras, opened the door and hurriedly entered the room, while sweating profusely. 

"Sihyeon, are you all right.?” 

“Andras. Why are you here?” 

"I got a call from Mr Kaneff." 

Coming closer, he began to take this and that out of his arms. 

"This is my family's proud treatment ointment, and this is a potion with a drop of Seredeon's spring water, a cleanly disinfected surgical tool…" 

"Stop taking it out, it's chaotic. Give me the surgical tools first." 

Upon receiving the tools, Kaneff lined the table with tools. 

"No way… You're not doing it………., are you ?" 

"What do you mean by that.? I don't think there's anyone here who is as good as me in getting wounded or wounding someone." 

I don’t think, that are the qualifications to treat someone’s wounds. 

"Ha ha. Don't worry Sihyeon. In fact, Mr Kaneff has healed my wounds as well as Lia's wounds in several occasions." 

"Really?" 

“Yes, Why would I lie.?” 

“ Now! Drink this first." 

While I was talking to Andras, Kaneff shoved a bottle containing some kind of liquid into my mouth.

It tasted…………bitter.

"What's this?" 

"It's like an anesthetic that reduces pain.” 

Kaneff's hand seems to be skilful, but at the same time…its a bit rough… 

“ By the way, why should I drink anesthetic for this kind of  wound?" 

“Well…. in the past, there were a lot of cases where they fainted after seeing the way I was treating them." 

“ Hahahah……..Great joke………It’s a joke..right ?!” 

I drank the anesthetic while hearing a creepy testimony. 

Soon, my mood became dreamy as if I had drunk alcohol.  

Kaneff smiled looking at me and then began the surgery in earnest.  

First, half of the potion was poured into the wound. 

The wound healed little by little with the sound of something boiling. 

At that moment………. 

The threaded needle floated in the air according to Kaneff's gesture, and in an instant, the wound started closing.  

Whether the effectiveness of anesthetic or Kaneff's skills, I didn’t feel any pain, all I felt was some ticklish feelings. 

While Lia cleaned the stitched location with clean cotton, Andras bandaged the wound.  

"Except for a simple diary writing, the rest of the farm work is off limits. You shouldn't overdo it. Okay.?” 

I wanted to retort, but it seemed like I didn’t have any other options, when all three of them are staring at me like that. 

“Okay.…” 

"And spray the remaining potions little by little while changing the bandage later. "

“ It's a potion brought for me, so can I use them as I wanted.”

I thought, if I use the potion on the baby fox, then it’s wound will also get better. 

“Don't even think about it.”. 

Kaneff looked at me intensely as if he understood, what I was going to do.

“ No…..I just….”

"Try that…..I’ll remove the stitches and restitch them without giving you an anaesthetic."  

“ Okay. I got it, so don't say anything scary." 

Kaneff stared at me and sighed deeply. 

“Hey, Lia." 

“Yes. Mr Kaneff” 

"How many bottles of Hap are left for me?" 

"We have ten bottles of your share left." 

"Then give them to the fox for the time being." 

I was moved by Kaneff’s unexpected decision. 

"Boss…" 

"Don't make weird faces!" 

“As soon as the fox's wound recovers, I'll kick it out." 

Kaneff went to his room, saying something grumpy for no reason. 

Ohhhhhh…..this is what Japanese people call a tsundere.   

Lia, Andras, and myself smiled warmly looking at the back of Kaneff. 

Maybe, this is how a mother feels, when her child grows up.

⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩

It took a week for the injured right hand to recover to some extent. 

Perhaps because of the good effect of the potion that Andras brought, it was a very fast recovery speed.  

Now, I was able to perform normal farm works, like usual. 

Only a little scar remained in the right hand. 

Poo wooooo. 

“Is it good. It's been a while since I brushed your hair, right?" 

Today, I was brushing the baby Yakums, since I couldn't do it for a while, because of the injury. 

Kawaii especially liked to be brushed very much, today even though I had been brushing her for quite a while, she did not easily leave my side. 

"Do you like it that much ?" Hahahah…our Kawaii is too greedy.” 

woooooo! woooooooo! 

"Hahahah, right right. Since it's been a while, I have to give you a little more service." 

I smiled and picked up the brush again at the complaints of Kawaii, who was not like her usual self. 

Now, I can be called an expert at brushing hair.  

The delicate and soft comb made kawaii, make a comfortable expression as if she was melting. 

While focusing on brushing like that, I felt a stinging gaze. 

As soon as I turned my head, I could quickly find the owner of the gaze.  

Glossy silver fur and slightly red tail. 

Poppy eyes, pointed ears, and a cute nose. 

It was the baby fox who had completely regained its energy after removing the bandage. 

"Do you want to have a try.?” 

When I talked, the baby fox quickly hid behind the wall.  

Recently, the baby fox continued to repeat this behavior. 

It showed interest while hovering around, but when I tried to get closer, it ran away quickly. 

Even though it’s a fox, the things it does reminds me of a cat. 

Pooo wuuu? 

"Oh. Sorry. I got lost in thought. I'll do it properly this time." 

After having lunch with the farm family and baby Yakums. 

I put milk in a bowl and headed to the warehouse. 

Clang,clak

I opened the wooden door, and at the same time, a rustling sound was heard inside the warehouse. 

A temporary nest is made at the corner of the warehouse. 

From the inside, the baby fox pushed its head out. 

"You're hungry, right ? Have lunch." 

I put down the bowl of milk a little away from the nest. 

And as I stepped away from the milk bowl, the baby fox began to move.  

It was quite hard during the first week. 

But now, the baby fox’s wariness has reduced a bit. 

As I was about to leave the warehouse so that the baby fox doesn't feel uncomfortable while eating. 

Buuubuuuuuu. 

For the first time, the baby fox tried to say something. 

I turned around with excitement. 

"What's wrong? Do you need anything else?" 

Dash

When I tried to get close, the baby fox ran away quickly. 

I stopped on the place because I didn't understand what the baby fox wanted. 

While I was thinking, standing there, the baby fox came out again and continued to eat.  

When I saw that, a smile appeared on my face. 

"Hahaha… You don't want me come near you, at the same time  you don't want me to leave?” 

Such a selfish sly baby fox. 

I felt good because it seemed the baby fox, tried to rely on me at least a little. 

"Okay, I got it. I'll be here until you’re done."  

The baby fox focused on its meal, not listening to me.  

Whew… I'm really a pushover. 

The baby fox acts however it wants, but somehow it felt a bit adorable. 

I lamented my situation inside and watched the baby fox's meal in a daze. 

⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩

Late in the afternoon. 

Dark clouds began to flock in the sky of the farm.  

It rained several times. 

This time, it seemed to pour out heavily.  

Lia quickly walked through the laundry that had been hung, and I wandered around the farm to pack the scattered equipment, and checked the door so that the horses in the stable would not be hit by the wind and rain.  

Next, the door was wide open toward the barn. 

Yakums quickly flocked into the barn, perhaps instinctively expecting the weather. 

The three siblings also settled inside the barn along with Hermosa. 

I checked the situation of the barn and came outside. 

As the wind intensified around the farm, raindrops began to fall one by one.  

When I went back to the farm building, Lia also finished checking the house. 

-Daddaadadddd. 

A fierce thunder began to be heard from the sky.  

When it was time to get off work after dinner preparation, it rained so hard that it was hard to see and the wind swirled hard. 

– Dadda doodooo   

Fierce weather, but preparations were perfectly in place for such a time. 

Raincoats and boots were packed in advance because it is common to work on farms even if it rains.  

"Sihyeon, do you want me to guide you?" 

"No, this is fine. It's not that far away, and I brought raincoats in advance." 

I left the farm building wearing raincoats and boots. 

"Be careful!"  

"Don't worry. Then I'll see you tomorrow!"  

I greeted the worried Lia and began to go through the rain and wind. 

While passing by the fence, I saw Bighorn standing outside the barn building. 

He was standing alone to protect the group resting comfortably in the barn.  

I was proud of him and cheered him up with a loud voice. 

"Big horn! So cool !!…Keep up the good work !! " 

Perhaps he heard my voice in the rain and wind, Bighorn replied with a loud cry. 

-Booooo Wo Wooooo! 

When I was about to leave again after waving my hand towards Bighorn, I suddenly thought of the baby fox who would be alone in the warehouse.  

During thunder, lightning, and rainstorms all night long. 

How does the baby fox feel left alone in a dark warehouse? 

Thinking of that, like the soaked raincoat, my heart was also wet and I felt depressed. 

After looking at the warehouse for a while, I walked out again along the way home from work. 

⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩

– Dooom Boom Boom boom Duuuud! 

-Dududududududududududududududududududududududududududududududududududududududududududududud 

The baby fox hid in the corner of the warehouse and curled up in a circle, as if trying to protect itself from the sound. 

-Tremble. 

– BuuBuuuuuuuu… 

The warehouse prevented the rain, wind and cold, but it did not prevent the loneliness and alienation felt by the baby fox.  

The fox crouched down more and recalled the happiest memories. 

Days when it ate delicious food with its mom and dad and ran around all day with them. 

However, the memories of that day became blurred, making the baby fox's anxiety even greater. 

When it's getting harder and harder to hold out. 

A person flashed in the mind of the baby fox.  

A person who brought it here to heal, took care of meals, and came and talked awkwardly every day. 

The baby fox thought about the time it bite his hand. 

The baby fox missed the gentle patting of his hands and his cozy energy. 

Buuuuuuuuuuu…

Bubuuuuuuuuuuu.. 

The sad cry of the baby fox resonated in the lonely warehouse. 

At that time, the warehouse door opened and a man in a raincoat appeared. 

"Ah. Even the raincoat got wet."
