How to get Healed at Demon Farm

The scent of warm coffee softly lingered in the room. 

"Hmm." 

Director Lee Seok was enjoying the warm coffee scent alone.  

It's hard to find a place to relax because of the accumulated work, but he took time to have a coffee break every day even though he was busy.  

He like coffee so much that he make coffee himself at home and at office. 

It was his own lifestyle routine to refresh himself and increase work efficiency during his busy day. 

His subordinates know his habits well, so they try to not get in the way during his coffee break. 

– Bam! 

"Executive Director Lee Seok…It’s an Emergency….!"  

Wrinkles suddenly appeared in Director Lee Seok's forehead.  

He put down the coffee cup he was holding in his right hand and came back to his desk.  

He looked at his subordinate, who interfered with his precious break time, with frightening eyes. 

"What's going on?" 

The subordinate trembled at the faint anger in his voice. 

However, he soon spoke with an expression of helplessness. 

"I got the papers from the Inferris office, from Demon Ryan." 

"From Ryan?" 

‘When was it?’ 

Obviously, he was grateful to Ryan, with whom he could communicate well and who cooperated in a flexible manner whenever there was a problem.  

But from one point on, he gets involved in big and heavy incidents, which made Lee Seok's head hurt.  

‘Yes, since the appearance of the person named Lim Sihyeon.’  

Somehow, an uneasy feeling that it would be similar this time too lingered around him like a coffee scent.  

Stressing his nervousness, he accepted the papers brought by his subordinates. 

His eyes grew slightly larger as he continued to read the papers. 

Thanks to your dazzling performance in the Demon world…Demon Lord gave a new title to Lim Sihyeon. 

"A new title…" 

He gained Ester's status a few months after he moved to the Demon world, and he received a new title again soon after. 

It was strange because Lee Seok did not know all the circumstances of the Demon world. 

Even though there have been a few complications, Lee Seok naturally felt happy at Lim Sihyeon's performance as a public official who works for the country.  

"If he was praised, it wouldn't be a big deal to care about."  

Lee Seok was relieved that it wasn't a big deal, and he thought about what to do with the subordinate who interfered with his break time. 

As he was about to hand over the documents without thinking, a word showed a strong presence as if he was struck by a lightning. 

As soon as he checked the word Demon stones, Lee Seok's eyes opened wide enough to rip. 

Lim Sihyeon will be given the authority to trade Demon stones and rights to 1% of the Demon stones produced in Demon world.

“What the crazy f*…" 

Lee Seok said something without even realizing.  

He couldn't believe the contents of the document, so he read the same part again and again.  

"Is this really from Ryan?" 

"Yes, it is. I checked it over and over again." 

"Ummm……" 

His mind was intricately intertwined with a lot of information and the number of cases that followed.  

He, who boasts tremendous experience, had difficulty easily understanding the current situation. 

"What's my schedule for today?" 

"Oh… you don't have an important schedule in the morning. In the afternoon, you said you have a meeting schedule for guild financial stability evaluation report, and promised a dinner with Senators and guild representatives…." 

“Cancel all of them. Right now!" 

"What?" 

"It's not the time to do that. I'm sure no one else saw the documents you brought, right?"  

"Yes, I checked and came to report them right away."  

"Okay, then I'll take my sick leave and leave work. And you… no. You too take sick leave with me and follow me."

"…." 

The expression of the subordinate got slightly distorted. 

However, in the current situation, his will was not important.  

Lee Seok's eyes were already full of will that could not be easily reversed. 

"Then where are we going Director?" 

"Where do you think we're going? If you want to check the contents of the document correctly, you should ask the sender directly."  

"We didn't even make an appointment, can we go right away like this.” 

Lee Seok said in a low voice, putting on his jacket hung on the hanger.  

"We don't have time to think about manners. We will unconditionally until we get to meet."  

⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩

– Clap, clap, clap. 

"Congratulations. Sihyeon!" 

As soon as I arrived at the Inferris office after work, Ryan suddenly congratulated me.  

I replied to his congratulations with an awkward look. 

"Did you know already, Ryan? I'm a little embarrassed." 

“Hahaha…Maybe I was the first to know. If I didn't have much to do today, I'd have come to the farm and celebrated the occasion with you. It's a shame."  

"You're busy, so it's natural. I didn't do such a great job………… “ 

"Hahaha, I'm afraid there are more people who think differently about that Sihyeon." 

"……..?" 

"Other than me, there's someone else who wants to congratulate Sihyeon. Would you like to meet him?"  

I put a questioning look on my face at Ryan's words, since there were only few people in this world who would congratulate me on my work in Demon world. 

"Who is he Ryan? Is this someone I know?"  

"I'm sure you've talked to him even though you've never met him in person. I gave you his business card last time. Do you remember?"  

Business card? Business card…?! Oh! 

"I remember. When I had a problem with the White Tiger guild, I called him and he solved it, right?"  

"That's right. It’s Lee Seok, head of the Dimensional Realm Management Headquarters. I got a call from him saying that he would like to meet Sihyeon in person. Would you like to meet him?"  

"I got help then and couldn't thank him properly. Of course it's okay. When did he say he wanted to meet me?"  

With a delighted look on my face, I asked about the appointment, while Ryan replied with a slightly troubled look on his face. 

"That's… Actually, he’s waiting for Sihyeon to leave work nearby." 

"What?" 

“Well…he has been waiting for more than six hours." 

"What?"  

Surprised at the completely unexpected situation, I made a strange sound. 

⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩

"It's the first time seeing in person. I'm Lee Seok, the head of the Dimensional Realm Management Division." 

"Nice to meet you. I'm Lim Sihyeon."  

Director Lee Seok was younger than I thought he would be.  

It was not a middle-aged man with a bulging belly, which is usually an image of a high-ranking government official, but he had a sharper and more intelligent atmosphere.  

"Well… …I heard you've been waiting a long time for me from Ryan…"  

"I guess Ryan told you. I didn't mean to burden you. Sihyeon, don't worry too much." 

Lee Seok said in a comfortable voice, but it wasn't easy for me to do so. 

A person of much higher age and status waited for six hours, of course, it couldn't be less burdensome.  

Ryan, who was familiar with this place, quickly opened his mouth, noticing the awkward atmosphere. 

"Thank you for the help when we had a problem with the White Tiger guild last time. I should have thanked you separately, but I'm sorry."  

"It's okay. I just did what I had to do. Rather, I'm sorry that White Tiger guild didn't get a proper punishment."  

I heard from Yerin that the rude guy of White Tiger guild was punished lightly.  

The charges of attacking us were not admitted, and only the charges of causing damage to the surroundings by carelessness was admitted, and the fines were imposed. 

"I heard that Sihyeon received a new title from the Demon Lord this time. Congratulations." 

"Thank you very much. To be honest, I still don't know what it is." 

"Isn't it a good thing because you’re recognized by the Demon Lord himself?"  

By the time the awkward atmosphere disappeared little by little, Ryan broke the ice.  

"You're not just here just to congratulate Sihyeon, aren’t you? I think it's time to get to the point." 

"…?" 

Ryan gave a hint with an expression of knowing everything.  

Lee Seok seemed to organize his thoughts for a while, and he spoke very carefully.  

"I think you've already guessed. I think it's not polite to take too long, so I'll be straightforward. The reason I came here is because… …."  

The moment Lee Seok was about to start talking with a serious face. 

-Growl.  

There was a roar in my stomach. 

It was a very accurate timing as if it was intended.  

"Oh! I'm sorry. When I come back from work, I was always very hungry… …”

“Hahahahah." 

I bowed my head in embarrassment and excused myself, while Ryan next to me kept laughing.  

Lee Seok, who was interrupted by an unexpected blow, looked blank. 

Then he burst into a pleasant laugh. 

"Hahaha! You must have been in a hurry. Come to think of it, it's already this time."  

He jumped out of his seat.  

"If you don't mind, why don't we have dinner together and continue talking?" 

"That sounds good. How about you Sihyeon?" 

"I'm fine, too."  

Everyone agreed, and a smile appeared around Lee Seok's mouth.  

"Sihyeon, do you like Chinese.?” 

The three left the office and headed to the parking lot of the building.  

We decided to move together to the restaurant in Lee Seok's car. 

Lee Seok and his subordinate sat in the front seat, while Ryan and I sat in the back seat.

After leaving the city at the same time as the late rush hour, the vehicle began to go straight down the road. 

Arriving in less than an hour was the entrance to the hotel lobby decorated with brilliant lights.  

I whispered to Ryan in a low voice.  

"Aren't we going to eat Chinese ?"  

"Yes, I remember there was a famous Chinese restaurant in this hotel, but it's a little different from what I thought it would be." 

“I was thinking about whether to eat jajangmyeon or jjamppong." 

"You don't have to worry. They also sell both jjajangmyeon and jjamppong here." 

"No! That's not what I meant." 

I thought of an ordinary Chinese restaurant that sells black bean noodles, sweet and sour pork, and fried dumplings. 

Suddenly, I came to a luxurious hotel, so I couldn't help but be confused.  

Ryan laughed aloud, thinking it was funny to see me like that. 

"Since we arrived, let's get out." 

At Lee Seok’s words, I got out of the car .  

I followed him to the lobby of the hotel.  

Elegant decorative food on a luxurious marble floor, and the atmosphere of a luxury hotel I've never felt before, made me dizzy.  

When I was worried about being treated so luxuriously, Ryan next to me tapped me on the shoulder.  

"Sihyeon, you don't have to worry too much," 

Ryan relieved me with a friendly voice that made the listener comfortable. 

"Whether human or demon, in the end, the unfortunate side bows more. I think Sihyeon is a person who deserves to be treated well by Director Lee Seok." 

"Ryan…"  

"If Lee Seok had brought Sihyeon to an ordinary Chinese restaurant, I would never have tolerated it. So be confident," 

Ryan finished his words, with a charming, cool smile and a playful blink of one eye.  

I looked at Ryan with an incredibly moved look on my face.  

When he was giggling and making fun of me earlier, he was honestly very annoying, but now he was more reliable than anyone else. 

Thanks to Ryan's advice, I regained my confidence and headed to the inside of the hotel.
