How to get Healed at Demon Farm - Chapter 399

Mrs. Clau quickly returned carrying a tray.
On the tray were tea cups, a teapot, and cookies, all accounted for according to the number of people.
“I’ve prepared these cookies since this morning. They just came out of the oven. They are even more delicious when paired with warm tea, so please try them soon.”
“The aroma of the tea is really nice.”
“Thank you, Madam.”
I also thanked along with Judge Arc and Ashmir.
“Thank you for the meal.”
“Let me know if you need more.”
She sat beside us with a warm smile.
I cautiously picked up a cookie.
-Crunch!
The cookie, which was still warm, crumbled softly. Its unique savory and sweet taste mixed with the crispy texture.
The cookie was not particularly remarkable, but it gave me a strangely comforting feeling.
Delicious cookies, a soft chair, a faint aroma of tea.
The comfortable atmosphere gradually lessened my initial confusion. My previously rigid face and limbs also relaxed.
After eating one cookie neatly, I naturally reached for the plate filled with cookies. But, as luck would have it, I made eye contact with the lady sitting in that direction.
She was staring at me with sparkling eyes. At that moment, not knowing how to react, I felt awkward, and then she opened her mouth as if she could not hold it any longer.
“How is it? Do you like the cookies?”
“Uh…… They’re delicious.”
“Really?”
“Yes. They are really delicious. They go really well with the tea you prepared.”
“Ha ha! That’s a relief. I was worried in case it didn’t suit your taste. It’s rewarding to see my efforts since morning getting paid off.”
She covered her mouth with one hand and burst into laughter. Her face was full of bright smiles, evidently pleased to hear my sincere compliments.
Upon seeing this, Judge Arc jokingly said,
“It’s disappointing. You seem to have no interest in the opinion of the others here.”
“Judge Arc, you and the Officers often try my cookies. Of course, I’m more curious about the opinion of a guest who came from very far away.”
“Hehehe.”
“Oh! I realized I didn’t properly introduce myself. My name is ‘Lora’. You may not know, but my husband is Clau, who is performing his executive duties.”
I quickly put down the cookie in my hand and introduced myself.
“My name is Lim Sihyeon. Please feel free to call me Sihyeon.”
“So you’re Sihyeon. Nice to meet you. You can call me Lora, too.”
“Yes.”
“But I heard you came from the Demon world. You’re not a demon, are you? You’re an Earthling who the Executors and Surveillance Officers often visit, right?”
As soon as Lora finished introducing herself, she asked a lot of curious questions. Most of them were not hard to answer, so I responded to her queries lightly.
In the middle of our conversation.
-Thud……… Squeak.
The sound of a door opening came from the second floor. And shortly after………….
-Flap! Flap!
-Flap! Flap!
“Mommy?”
“Who is it?”
Two baby Angels flapped their wings and descended from the second floor.
“Oh my!”
Lora, surprised, quickly got up from her seat and headed toward the babies. However, the two baby Angels actively flapped their wings and evaded Lora’s reach.
“Oh no! You two!”
The place where the babies, who had avoided their mother’s touch, had headed was right where I was.
Babies who looked about 2-3 years old quietly sat down on my lap.
“Ah, hello?”
Babies who don’t respond to my greeting.
They moved their eyes here and there, observing me, seemingly unafraid of the unfamiliar me. At first, they just observed me with their eyes, but later on, they poked or touched me with their tiny hands.
“S-sorry, Sihyeon. I put them to sleep upstairs before the guests arrived, but they must have woken up earlier than expected.”
“That’s okay.”
I gave a reassuring smile to the flustered Lora.
It wasn’t an unpleasant experience, and I could even joyfully accept the playful pranks of the adorable babies.
That being said.
Whether from the Human world, the Angel world, or the Demon world– Babies are cute everywhere.
Their chubby cheeks, so adorable I could bite them, their big shiny eyes, and of course, their small fluttering wings were attractive points.
“The boy with short hair is ‘Ron’, and the girl with the ribbon tied in her hair is ‘Rin’. They are twins.”
Twins…
For a moment, the image of the Barbados family twins came to mind. The twins from the Angel realm were just as cute as those from the Demon world.
“So your names are Ron and Rin.”
“Un.”
“Un.”
“My name is Sihyeon.”
Ron and Rin quickly lost interest in my name and started observing me again.
“Hehe. Sihyeon is quite popular with babies.”
“According to the people on the farm, he has a mysterious ability to get along well with young children.”
“That’s right! If he goes to the village, all the children will flock to Senior Sihyeon.”
“Oho. Sihyeon has such an ability?”
Ashmir and Urki’s comments surprised Judge Arc, who showed a genuinely surprised reaction. Of course, I denied it by waving my hand.
“No, not really. I just get along with kids a bit. Probably because I have a daughter, I might be more interested in kids.”
“You have a daughter?”
“Yes. She would be a few years older than Ron and Rin.”
“No wonder. You seemed very familiar with handling a baby.”
“Hahaha!”
“Eek!”
‘But guys, why are you lifting my clothes like that and peeking inside?’
The twins stuck their hands into my shirt, pressed their faces in, and then tilted their heads in curiosity.
“Huh? No wings.”
“Strange Strange. Does it hurt somewhere?”
They seemed to find it strange that I didn’t have wings on my back.
“Kids, I never had them in the first place.”
“Eh?”
“No wings?”
When I said I never had wings, the twins wore shocked expressions. The sight was so vivid that I couldn’t help but laugh.
“Haha! Yes, I don’t have wings because I’m not an Angel.”
While I laughed jovially, the twins frowned and whimpered.
“So you can’t fly?”
“Poor you…”
The fact that I couldn’t fly made them so sorry that their eyes got teary. I was taken aback by their unexpected reaction and hurriedly comforted them.
“No, I’m okay. Don’t cry, guys.”
“Sniffle.”
“Sniffle.”
Who would have thought they’d be this sad that I can’t fly?
Although it was a bit absurd, the purity of the babies’ feelings warmed my heart.
The rest of the group also had pleased expressions on their faces.
My skills of comforting, honed through Speranza, quickly stopped the twins from crying. Instead, the children sparkled their eyes as if they made some decision.
“We’ll make you fly instead!”
“Un, just trust us!”
“Huh?”
Ron and Rin flapped their wings, flying up toward my shoulders. They tried to pull me up by grabbing my clothes on my shoulders.
“Ughh!!”
“Ughh!!”
Despite their efforts, I didn’t budge at all. It seemed hard to lift an adult male with the small wings of the twins.
Just as I was about to stop them from straining, Judge Arc, who was next to me, flicked his finger.
Then, an unknown energy enveloped me, and my body floated as the twins pulled.
“Huh?!”
“Wow!”
“We did it!”
Feeling as light as a feather, I quickly soared up to the ceiling. The thrilled twins began to fly me around the house.
Judge Arc burst into laughter, and Lara was so pleased that she clapped. Ashmir and Urki felt the same.
“How’s it?”
“Fun, right?”
“Yeah, it’s fun. Thanks, guys.”
At my words of thanks, Ron and Rin smiled adorably.
‘But, guys. How long will you drag me around? I’m a bit embarrassed now.’
Unfortunately, the twins, not knowing my inner thoughts, enthusiastically flew me around until they were out of energy.
Eventually, whenever I tried to move a little, they took me to the desired place, insisting they would take me.
Unable to reject their innocent intentions, I obediently allowed myself to be led by the baby angels.

In the evening, Lora hosted a grand dinner she had prepared.
Lora specially prepared the most popular dishes from Angel World. Thanks to her excellent cooking skills, all the dishes were very satisfying.
After finishing dinner, Judge Arc, Ashmir, and Urki prepared to leave.
“I’ll pick you up tomorrow morning. Be ready. We’ll have to be busy from the morning to attend the Council, so have a hearty breakfast.”
“Don’t worry. I will take good care of him.”
Leaving the words that they would come to pick me up in the morning, the three left.
I spent time with the twins until going to bed. As we played with dolls and toys, the babies quickly started nodding off.
“Ron, Rin! It’s time to go to bed.”
“Uh…No…”
“We want to play more.”
The children clung to me, throwing a tantrum to play more. But as soon as Lora picked them up, they fell asleep.
Even their sleeping faces were very adorable.
“Thank you. Thanks to you playing with the kids, I had a relaxing day.”
“I’m glad I could help.”
“Follow me. I prepared a bed for you on the second floor.”
I followed Lora up to the second floor.
She led me to a room with a bed and a small table. It seemed like a room prepared for a guest.
“The linens have been changed and the room has been cleaned, so you shouldn’t have any discomfort. Do you need anything else?”
“No, I’m fine. Thank you for your consideration.”
“Hoho, it’s nothing… I’ll wake you up when breakfast is ready tomorrow. Rest well.”
“Yes, goodnight.”
After exchanging greetings with Lora, I closed the room door.
After looking around the room for a moment, I threw myself onto the bed.
The blankets smelled fresh, as if they had just been washed.
I didn’t feel particularly tired, but as I lay down on the comfortable bed, a wave of drowsiness came over me.
With a gentle sigh, my eyes closed naturally, and like the twins cuddling with Lara earlier, I fell into dreamland in an instant.
And so, my first night in the Angel World peacefully passed.
