“Hahaha!”

“It’s exciting, Popi”

Speranza and Gyuri hung behind Akum and burst into laughter.

The brave baby Yakum with the fox girl and fairy on the back.

It seemed like an unsuitable combination, but just watching them warmed my heart.

Speranza, Akum, Gyuri.

These three suddenly became friends and often played together like that.

It was really a good thing for Speranza, who still has a lot of emptiness in her heart.

The three of them got together and had more accidents, but just seeing their bright smile was enough to bear that.

Of course, pranks or dangerous actions crossing the line tended to be warned by me and Lia.

Bo wo wooooooo

“Oh, I’m sorry. Chorongi, I’ll brush your hair again.”

I forgot to brush Chorongi’s hair since I got distracted by the children’s appearance for a while.

I came to my senses at Chorongi’s cry and began to move his hands again.

Brush

Brush

Brush.

“Are you happy now?”

Boo wo wooooo

There is not much time left for Chorongi to give birth.

Her movements gradually diminished, and the appetite became irregular.

Most of the time, the situation was similar to when Hermosa gave birth, but the difference was that Chorongi seemed to be much more stressed.

So these days, Chorongi’s stress management was the top priority.

One of them was combing like now.

“Chorongi, don’t worry too much. Just relax. I’ll make sure to help you meet the beautiful and healthy babies.”

As if my feeling got conveyed, Chorongi put a relaxed face and acted cute.

After accepting her cutesy for a while, I carefully took something out of his pocket.

“Hssh! It’s a secret to the others….all right.?”

A bright red strawberry was held on the palm of my hand.

Chorongi quickly recognized the strawberry and took it to her mouth.

The strawberries harvested this time were also very popular among Yakums.

However, no matter how high the yield was, it was not possible to distribute strawberries to all Yakums.

Only Chorongi, who was stressed out about childbirth, was given strawberries from time to time.

Booo Wooooo wooooo

“Yes, yes. I’ll bring it next time. I’m going to go now, so go home and get some rest.”

When I tapped her on the side, Chorongi slowly walked to the place where the barn was.

I also took the brush and luggage and headed towards the entrance of the fence.

I recalled what I had to do today.

I took care of Chorongi…

Oh! I have to feed the three siblings.

After that, I should prepare lunch and go to the strawberry field in the afternoon?

Haah… I also need to prepare for the expansion of the strawberry field as soon as possible.

I hope we can harvest enough to feed Yakums as much as they want.

And…

Huh?

Huh?

For a moment, I felt like the whole world was spinning.

The sky spun round and round, and soon I felt the smell of grass and soil at the tip of my nose.

Even though I fell on the floor, I felt like I was floating.

Oh… no

It’s not time to be lying… I have lots of…….

The urgent yakum cry felt farther and farther away, and then my consciousness was completely gone.

I slowly opened my eyes to the ticklish feeling felt at my fingertips.

I could see the familiar ceiling of the farm building.

I soon realized that it was my bed in my room.

“Ummm…”

I slowly turned my head towards the source of the tickling feeling in my hand.

It was Speranza

Speranza was sleeping on the edge of the bed while holding my hand.

My right hand was hugging her face like a doll, so I got ticklish in my fingertips whenever she breathed.

The moment I slowly tried to get up.

“Don’t get up. Stay still. Now is the time to get some rest.”

Munch Munch

Munch Munch

There was a man with long green hair, a strangely bent horn, and a white gown eating strawberries leisurely.

“…Who are you?”

“Me? A Doctor who was suddenly brought in because of  some crazy guy.”

“…?”

“This strawberry is more delicious. It’s even greater than the rumors say. That madman should have shared some of these good things. Tch… he was eating them all by himself.”

While talking to the strange man, Speranza, who was asleep, woke up in a hurry.

As soon as Speranza found me, she said in a tearful voice.

“papa… Are you all right?”

“Yes, I’m all right darling.”

“Really…?”

I ignored the man and forced myself to get up and brought Speranza to my side.

“I’m sorry Speranza darling, You should have been surprised, weren’t you?”

“Papa.. suddenly collapsed…i don’t know what to do……Ahhhhhhhhhhh………”

I hugged Speranza tightly with my apologies.

She didn’t stop crying for a while, perhaps because she was so much surprised.

Suddenly, the door opened, and Lia rushed in.

Following her, Ryan, Andras, and Kaneff appeared in the room one after another.

“Is everything all right, Sihyeon?”

“How are you feeling?”

“Sihyeon! Do you still feel any pain…”

I felt a little dizzy when everyone spoke at the same time.

The green-haired man perceived my reaction and growled towards the people who came in.

“Hey… Didn’t you hear what I said earlier that he should rest? Or has your horns grown big enough to ignore what I said?”

“…everyone but Kaneff stepped back a little.”

Everyone glanced at me with anxious eyes, not leaving the room despite hearing the cruel lines.

I felt more sorry than grateful looking at their appearance.

“I’m sorry you’re all busy. You’re all here because of me.”

“Don’t say that Sihyeon.”

“Lia is right. Don’t say such a thing. We’re all right.You can work later. Don’t worry.”

They comforted me, while looking at the green-haired man.

Kaneff, who had been quiet, spoke for the first time.

“Why did Sihyeon fall down?”

The green-haired man’s gaze went toward me.

“Did you say your name is Sihyeon?”

“Yes.”

“You’ve had a lot to worry about lately, haven’t you? I think you were overdoing it physically and mentally.”

“Ummm… That’s…”

I ignored it, saying I was okay, but there have been so many places to pay attention to recently due to overlapping of things.

The newly created strawberry field has already begun talks about expansion, and I was feeling burdened by Chorongi, who is about to give birth.

In addition, taking care of the three baby Yakum siblings and Speranza and other farm work overlapped, so honestly, I haven’t had much free time recently.

The atmosphere in the room became solemn.

“You’ve been drinking Hap for a long time, so you’re holding on like this. If you had worked a little harder, you might have become seriously ill.”

The green-haired man clicked his tongue and looked at Kaneff.

“Why didn’t you let him rest a little?”

“Why, what did I do? I never forced him to work. He did everything on his own”.

“Aren’t you in-charge of this farm? The management of the people below is also up to the person in charge. Did you forget everything when you used to be the head of the team?”

“Ugh……”

Kaneff closed his mouth tightly.

“I’ve told you so many times, haven’t I? Everyone is not a monster like you. It is a miracle that young master Banzil, and those two right there, survived under you.”

This time Ryan and Andras flinched.

“Well, you don’t have any more questions, right? I’ve finished all the treatment I can do, so take care of the patient.”

“Well… I don’t know who you are, but thank you for the treatment.”

“Don’t mention it, take care of yourself, so that you can make many more delicious strawberries. Oh! And I’ll take some strawberries as a fee for the treatment.”

The green-haired man stood up without hesitation.

“Hey, young man, Don’t push yourself too hard.”

“I’ll also get going. Take care Sihyeon.”

“I’ll have to take him back. Take care of yourself. I’ll visit you again later.”

Lia followed Andras and Ryan, saying she’ll take care of the strawberries and see them off.

In the room, only Kaneff and I, Speranza, who stopped crying, were left.

There was an awkward silence in the room.

When Speranza, who became bored, began to wiggle, Kaneff opened his mouth.

“Ha… I’m sorry.”

“What……?”

“As that guy said earlier, I should have paid more attention. I think I relied too much on you.”

“……..”

My eyes were wide open to the serious apology from Kaneff.

“I told you, I’d leave the farm work to you, but I’ll take care of it as much as I can in the future.”

“Oh… Yes, thank you.”

“I don’t think there’s enough men on the farm. We will officially ask Demon Lord Castle to replenish the number of people. Let me know if you need anything else. I’ll write it down with the report.”

“But boss….”

“…?”

“Did you write today’s report?”

“Hmm. I was in a hurry because you suddenly fell down…”

Kaneff said, avoiding my eyes.

Rather, I felt at ease because I felt like he had returned to his usual self.

“And what are you going to do? If you want to be treated at the place where you live, I’ll tell Ryan to help you move.”

“Ummm… He said he had finished treatment earlier, so I’m planning on sleeping on the farm today. I think I will make my mother worry if I go home right now.”

“Then do it that way, I’ll go out, relax.”

Kaneff left the room with a short bow.

“Papa.”

“What Darling.?”

“Are… you going to sleep here….?”

“Yes. I’m going to sleep with my sweet little girl today.”

“Hehe.”

Speranza smiled pleasantly when I said I was going to sleep with her.

I lay back on the bed, hugging Speranza.

Perhaps because of the shock when I collapsed earlier, my whole body trembled little by little.

I was in bed, but my mind was still in a mess.

While thinking that I should rest, I naturally remembered things I couldn’t do today.

Baby Yakums, did they eat?

I should go out to the strawberry field…

Maybe Chorongi was surprised because I fell down?

However, Speranza’s warm body temperature and the sound of her breathing gradually made me drowsy, and soon, my complex mind was neatly covered by the drowsiness that kicked in.

Soon after, only the sound of the breathing of Speranza and myself spread softly in the room.
