“Welcome, Sihyeon. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you all, little buddies.”
Arriving at the Inferris office, Ryan greeted us with a bright smile.
“Hi
”
Speranza greeted Ryan, hiding slightly behind my legs, perhaps because she felt a little awkward to meet after a long time.
“Hi, popi!”
Poo wow wooo
On the other hand, Gyuri and Akum greeted Ryan with a cheerful look that could not be found awkward.
But there was something in the office that was too much for even these two super bubbly guys to handle

“Long time no see. Mr. Lim Sihyeon.”
Still expressionless, a businesslike voice in a white uniform.
It was Ashmir, the Angel.
“Ugh! Bad Angel, Popi!”
Poo woooo
Gyuri and Akum quickly hid behind me as soon as they found Ashmir.
The first meeting with her was the worst experience for them.
As it turns out, the children still seem to be very scared.
Well, to be honest, I was also still a little scared.
But she didn’t come here with bad intentions today.
I tried to talk to Ashmir with a smile on my face as much as possible.
“Yes, hello. I texted you the day before yesterday, but you didn’t reply, so I thought you didn’t see it.”
“Is that so? I didn’t reply because I’m not allowed to communicate with people personally.”
“Oh
 I see.”
“
.”
“
”
I’ve experienced quite a lot of social life, and I’ve never thought there would be a person who would be this less sociable.
I couldn’t get used to talking to the Angels.
It was like talking to a robot with no emotions.
I asked for help with my eyes from Ryan, a person who is at the highest level of sociality among the Demon people I know.
Ryan soon noticed my intentions and frowned in one eye.
“Ms. Ashmir. You’re here again today because of the kids who came with Sihyeon, right?”
“Yes, that’s right. I have to make sure that the discipline of the dimension is still being followed.”
“How can we help you?”
“Can you bring those children together?”
I moved according to Ashmir’s instructions.
I sat on the chair, while Speranza and Akum sat on my lap, and Gyuri settled gently on my shoulder.
“
Uh
”
“ugh
popi.”
Poo woo
The children trembled with a nervous expression.
“It’s alright. She’s not going to scold you like last time. You don’t have to be too nervous.”
I talked to the children in a soft voice and hugged them slightly in my arms.
Thanks to this, the children’s tremors subsided a little.
“Let’s get started.”
Ashmir summoned a large wand with white light like last time.
She grabbed the wand with one hand and pointed it toward us, and the snake ornament began to move alive, just like the last time. –
“Hssssssss”
The two snakes stretched themselves out and approached us.
This time again, the snakes did not show any hostility and just watched.
Then, a wild idea came to my mind.
Can I use the ability to communicate with the snakes?
I reflexively invoked my ability to communicate before I could make a rational judgment on the wrong idea.
As soon as my consciousness touched the snake, I trembled with a tremendous shudder.
~Hsss
What? Is this guy talking to us..sssssss?
~ Yes..ssssssss
He’s
ssss a strange creature. Trying to communicate with us..sssss

I heard the thoughts of two snakes in my head.
The content rang in my head much clearer than when I used communication with Yakums or other Beasts.
~Can you hear me?
~Yes
ssssssss, human.
~What’s
ssssss the purpose of calling us
ssss?
Perhaps because they resemble their owners, both were very serious.
I was embarrassed to say I just called out of curiosity, so I forced myself to come up with a question.
~You tried to attack the kids the other day, but you stopped. Why did you do that?
~That’s..sss because of what our contractor said.
~Because they clearly violated the rules of the dimension at first, but not later.
They repeated exactly what Ashmir said.
~Why did you suddenly change? For what reason?
~It was.sssss.. 

The snake was about to answer, then suddenly I felt a great pain in my head.
“Ugh!”
~Unique human being! You can’t hear the answer to the question yet..ssss.
~  You have to build up your soul’s strength..sssss!
At the end of the word, the communication with the two snakes was immediately cut off.
At the same time, the pain I felt disappeared.
‘What is it?’
You want me to increase the power of my soul?
The conversation with the two snakes ended with one question.
“Sihyeon? Is there anything wrong?”
“Oh
 No. I felt a little dizzy for a moment.”
Ryan looked at my frown and asked anxiously.
For now, I decided to hide my conversation with the snake by covering it up moderately.
Ashmir returned the two snakes to the wand.
“It’s the same as last time. Dimensional discipline is maintained.”
“Oh! Thank you. Guys, did you see that? It’s not that scary.”
“Un, it wasn’t that scary.”
“I wasn’t scared from the start, Popi!”
Poo Woo woo!
Speranza smiled comfortably, and Gyuri and Akkung were in high spirits.
I burst out laughing at the children who quickly changed the atmosphere.
Meanwhile, Ashmir looked down at me and the children and took her smartphone out of her pocket.
“Mr. Lim Sihyeon?”
“Yes?”
“It’s necessary for the job of the inspection. May I take a picture of you guys?”
“Of course. Should we just stay like this?”
“Yes.”
Ashmir started fiddling with her smartphone to take pictures.
TAK TAK TAK TAK TAK
“
??”
‘What is it?’
‘Does she not know how to use a smartphone?’
She didn’t take pictures and just fiddled with her smartphone for a long time.
Ryan, who was watching from the side, approached first and kindly taught her how to take a picture.
Only then did Ashmir pose to take a picture.
“I’ll take it.”
CLICK
Ashmir confirmed the photos taken on the smartphone screen.
‘Huh? Did I see it wrong?’
I felt as if she had a slightly satisfying smile.
“Thank you for your cooperation. Then I’ll get going.”
Ashmir left the Inferris office without saying anything.
At first, such a figure felt dull and rude, but now it felt rather comfortable because there was no need for unnecessary greetings.
“Sihyeon, thank you for your hard work. The little buddies had a hard time, too”
“Fortunately, nothing happened this time.”
I let out a slight sigh of relief.
“Are you going home right away? I’ll give you a ride.”
“I’m sorry to bother you every time
 Oh! Ryan, do you have any plans for today?”
“Schedule? After I drop you guys off, I don’t have any other plans for dinner.”
“Then let’s have dinner together. My mother said she’d really like to treat Ryan.”-
“May I? Won’t I be a nuisance?”
“What do you mean a nuisance?”
“My mother told me specifically to bring Ryan. Let’s go together.”
“OK.”
“Did you finish checking, Officer Ashmir?”
“Yes, there was no problem this time.”
“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand. How can a human being do something that even Angels cannot
 
Officer Ashmir?”
Ashmir was focusing solely on her smartphone, not listening to the Angel next to her.
Ashmir, who had been touching the smartphone screen for a long time, turned her attention to the Angel next to her.
“Why, what’s wrong, Officer Ashmir?”
She looked at her smartphone.
On the screen, a picture of Speranza, Gyuri, and Akum in the lap of Lim Sihyeon could be seen.
“Do you know how I can use this picture as my wallpaper?”
“
what?”
“Grandma!!”
“We’re here, Popi”
Poo woo wooooo.
“Oh, my babies! How have you been? You gotten taller?”
My mother welcomed the children with a hug.
The children also missed my mother’s arms and couldn’t leave the area and kept hovering around her.
Speranza opened her bag and took out her precious test paper.
The fluttering fox tail and pricked ears were already excited to be praised.
“Grandma, this”
“What’s this dear?”
I approached my mother and tipped her off.
“Speranza got a perfect score on the dictation test.”
“Oh my! Did you get a perfect score?”
“Yes, the teacher said it was great.”
“Ohhh
Our little Speranza is so pretty and also smart. Isn’t she? I’m so proud of you!”
“Hehe!”
My mother praised her with great pride.
Speranza smiled happily after getting what she wanted.
“Grandma, I sprouted the strawberries the most in the strawberry field. Popi!”
Poooo woo woooo
Gyuri and Akung also appealed to my mother for their good work in the Demon world, perhaps because they also wanted to be praised.
“Yeah, Gyuri and Akum worked hard, too. I’m so happy as the grandmother since you guys have kept the promise you made last time.”
Mother praised and nursed the children until they were all satisfied.
While looking at the figure with satisfaction, I was surprised to remember something.
“Hey
 Mom? Ryan came with me today
”
Only then did my mother looked at Ryan smiling awkwardly next to me.
“Oh my! Mr.Ryan is here, too. I’m sorry. I was so preoccupied with the kids.”
“That’s okay. I can understand.”
“Welcome, though it’s a bit shabby.”
” Thank you for having me today.”
After greeting Ryan, my mother started preparing dinner.
“Ryan, do you have any food that you’re picky about? Do you like Korean food?”
“I’m not picky about food. I love Korean food, too.”
“Really? I hope my food will be to your taste
”
“I like all the dishes made by a beautiful lady, so you don’t have to worry.”
“Ho-ho! I feel really good even if those are just empty words.”
A smile didn’t leave my mother’s mouth at the natural praise of Ryan.
The table was quickly filled with dishes and side dishes.
“Mr. Ryan, don’t eat outside all the time. I’ll give you some food and side dishes, so make sure to take them when you go.”
“I know it’s a nuisance, but the food is so delicious that I’ll thankfully take it.”
“What do you mean nuisance? I’m going to wrap the leftovers for you, so you don’t have to worry at all.”
My mother loves to give.
She already smiled with satisfaction at the thought of giving Ryan this and that.
The food felt more delicious in a crowded atmosphere at home after a long time.
