/
An ordinary farm morning.
I was feeding the baby yakum’s breakfast as usual.
Since it was time for the babies to start grazing, milk was given only once, in the morning.
After Tanduk and Kawaii were done with their meal, the youngest baby, Akum came.
Akum drank Hap, sucking vigorously from the baby bottle.
When he was a newborn, it took quite a long time to empty the baby bottle, but now he was about to empty the bottle soon after it was bitten.
As he was drinking Hap, I suddenly noticed that Akum had stopped drinking, and was only biting the bottle.
I soon noticed the change and questioned the baby yakum.
“Akum darling. You’re purposely biting and not drinking, right?”
Poo woo?
Akum tilted his head as if he knew nothing.
I laughed despondently when I saw the baby Yakum hiding his brilliance behind his cute appearance.
The reason why Akum is holding on to the baby bottle without drinking was simple.
It was because if he finished drinking quickly, I would spend less time with him.
In short, he wants to stay with me for a long time.
As the number of jobs that need to be taken care of has increased three fold, the time I spend with baby yakums has decreased.
Akum might have been disappointed.
But that didn’t mean I could hold the baby bottle until the baby was satisfied.
“If you’re not going to drink any more, I’ll just leave. Is that okay?”
Pow wo woooo
When I pretended to go out with the bottle, Akum hung on to my leg in dismay.
It seems like I pampered him too much.
It’s a pleasure to know that he likes me and wants to follow me that much, but I was worried that it might be a problem later because he was too dependent on me.
I thought he should always be strong, but my heart naturally weakened when I saw him groaning in a mournful manner.
“Akum, don’t lie to me because you want to be with me. I have to do other farm job, too.”
Po woooo
He knew what he did was wrong, so he couldn’t look at me and kept his head down.
Seeing him depressed, I felt bad.
“Instead, I will stay with you for the rest of the time even if you finish drinking quickly. So don’t ever try to fool me again. Got it?”
Poo-woo Poo-woo.
“Come here. You’re going to drink the leftover Hap.”
Poooo!
When I called with a smile, Akum came into my arms.
When I gently swept his back with my hand, he drank the rest of the Hap with a happy expression as if nothing had happened.
By the time he emptied the remaining bottles, there was a commotion outside the barn.
‘What is it? Has Alfred finished cleaning the stable?’
For a moment, I left the baby Yakum and opened the door of the barn to look outside.
And soon I could find the main character of the disturbance.
It was Gyuri – a fairy who looked half asleep.
It was her first time coming to the farm this early in the morning, so I looked at her with a strange expression.
“Huh? Gyuri? What’s going on with you since this early in the morning?”
Gyuri found me and flew to me.
“Ahhhh! I’m so sleepy. popi”
“Why are you here when you’re sleepy?”
“Beast-people walked around the strawberry field early in the morning, so I can’t sleep.”
“Beast-people? What’s wrong?”
“Beast-people? I think they were looking for a cat girl coming to the strawberry field.”
All my thoughts about my busy morning routine got erased, and got filled with the urge to go to the strawberry field.
I rushed out of the barn and headed for the strawberry field.
Alfred, who had just finished cleaning the stable, found me and approached me.
“Senior, where are you going in such a hurry?”
“Strawberry field.”
“What’s with the strawberry field all of a sudden
?”
“I’ll explain later. We need to check it out!”
“Huh? Wait, I’m coming with you.”
Alfred looked puzzled, but he followed me for now.
We ran quickly to the strawberry field.
Creak.
Poo Woo?
As soon as I arrived in the strawberry field, I found Reville.
“Reville!”
“ Sihyeon. You’re here.”
“What’s going on?”
“That’s
”
I looked at the other Beast-people standing behind him.
Everyone looked miserable.
I could guess what had happened at a glance.
“There was a group of people who broke into Lagos’ house last night
“Intruder? Is Lagos all right?”
“Lagos and his family are fine. They seem to have come for the keys to the strawberry storage, but they seem to have kept the keys in a safe place.”
“That’s a relief. But why are you in the strawberry field?”
“Miru
 
disappeared.”
“What?”
Reville, with a distressed look on his face, explained one by one the things that happened last night.
Derick and the invaders.
And a vigilante who conspired with them.
“Miru noticed their plans and told you?”
“Yeah
 
she followed Derick who was sneaking out of the house last night and informed me right away. Maybe she has always been suspicious of Derick’s behavior.”
“But why did Miru disappear?”
“I don’t know. One of the intruders was caught. He confessed that they had originally planned to steal the key and join with the accomplice near the strawberry field. So I looked for Miru in the neighborhood
.”
Then Reville reached out one hand to me.
There was a familiar headdress on his palm.
It was a hair ornament that I gave to Miru as a gift.
I picked up the hair ornament with my trembling hand.
“It seems like they kidnapped Miru.”
“
.”
When the unidentified anxiety hit the mark, my head went blank for a moment.
I fiddled with the hair ornament and stared down blankly.
“Uncle Reville!”
From afar, Greg the pigman ran up to the strawberry field.
He came in a hurry and handed something to Reville, breathing heavily.
“Haaa! Uncle! This
 Just arrived
 gasp! Look at this
 gasp!”
Greg had a piece of paper in his hand that looked like a letter.
Reville quickly picked up the paper and read it quickly.
As he read the letter, Reville’s expression became more and more distorted.
“It’s a letter from the guys who kidnapped Miru.”
“Sihyeon, I think you should read it too.”
Reville handed over the paper to me.
I still lack knowledge in the language of the Demon world, but I focused as much as I could and read the letters in the letter.
I could interpret a few sentences briefly.
– We have the catgirl.
-If you want the girl back safe, bring all the strawberries in the storage room.
“

 Red molars?”
“Red molars! It’s a criminal syndicate that controls the back streets of the Kaldinium. Derick, he must have brought them into the village!”
I handed the letter I had to Alfred, who was next to me.
His expression contorted as he read the letter.
“Elaine.”
“Yes, Senior.”
“Will you help me like you said that time?’
“Of course. I would have come forward even if you didn’t ask for it. I can’t stand these guys who commit such an ugly act
”
Many things have happened since the day I came to the Demon world.
I experienced many fun and mysterious things, and there were many absurd and ridiculous things.
But what filled my mind now was a feeling I felt for the first time after entering the Demon world.
It’s anger!
I wanted to punish Derick and the gang for kidnapping innocent Miru.
I felt like I couldn’t control this feeling if I didn’t give them a reasonable punishment.
I suppressed my boiling emotions and cooled my head.
The most important thing now was to bring Miru safely.
“Elaine, what should we do?”
“Wait a minute. I didn’t expect to use it so quickly
 
”
Alfred took something out of his arms.
It was an object that looked like a small artifact.
He stuttered the device into action.
“Andras, can you hear me?”
‘Andras?’
“I need some help now. The way you taught me then? Oh! All right. Wait a minute”
Then Alfred adjusted the artifact again and placed it on the ground.
From the Artifact, Magic flowed out, and automatically began to fill in the air.
The group of lights gathered around the magic circle created a very familiar appearance.
POW
“Andras!”
” Hi Sihyeon! Fortunately, the portable coordinate artifact worked well. But
”
Andras looked at the surrounding area with a subtle look on his face.
“Well, Elaine, would you please refrain from using the artifact if it’s close to the farm? The farm is equipped with a fixed coordinate wizardry, and whenever portable artifacts are used, the cost aspect is
”
Then, he looked away at the artifacts that was on the ground.
It was probably a disposable artifact.
“Oh! I’m sorry, Andras.”
“It’s my first time using it. I will take care of it next time.”
“Andras, when did you leave that artifact to Elaine?”
“I told Elaine in advance because I thought something would happen soon. Of course, I didn’t expect it to be used so quickly
 but can you tell me what happened?”
I quickly explained what happened last night and the fact that Miru was kidnapped.
Andras looked grave when he heard my story.
“I understand the situation roughly. It’s a little too bad. Rather, if they had invaded the strawberry field, they would have been troubled by the boundary magic I had set up.”
“What should we do?”
“Looking at their behavior, I don’t think kidnapping itself was the purpose. Perhaps the act of taking the girl was accidental.”
“Certainly
 if they had tried to kidnap Miru from the beginning, they wouldn’t have done it like this.”
Reville nodded and agreed with Andras.
“Now that their original plan has failed, the ‘Red molars’ are probably panicking now. Maybe sending a threatening letter means we could easily bring back the hostage just by giving them strawberries.”
“If that can bring Miru back, I can give them as many strawberries as they want.”
Miru’s safety is the most important thing.
Compared to that, the strawberries in the storage were not very important.
“First of all, we need to hear more from the intruder who was caught. So a little bit more specific plan

“Hey
 I’m sorry to interrupt.”
Greg, who was holding his breath, suddenly stepped in.
He shuddered as everyone’s eyes were drawn to him in the serious atmosphere.
“Oh, I think there’s a strange guy behind you, Brother.”
He pointed behind me and said cautiously.
“Behind me? What is there
??”
I shouted in surprise as soon as I turned around.
“Akum?”
Poo-woo wooo!
The baby Yakum looked up at me and let out a happy cry.
