How to get Healed at Demon Farm

Chapter 165

Chapter 165

"Candy Uncle!"

I heard a cute cat girl calling me as I was moving my feet to the Swearing-in stage.

Along with Miru, people from the Elden village were approaching the ceremony late.

I turned around and approached them.

"You're all here."

"I'm sorry we arrived late. I was trying to clean up a cluttered village."

"No. You came just in time. I'll show you to your seats, so follow me."

I took everyone to their pre-arranged seats.

Elder Poco shook his head when he saw the neatly prepared guest seat.

" Can we really sit here?"

"Of course, I prepared it, especially for everyone. Don't worry too much, sit down quickly. The Swearing-in is about to begin."

I led the anxious Elder Poco directly to his seat.

He was moved to tears.

"Thank you, Thank you very much. This old man can close his eyes now without any regrets."

"Hahaha, what are you talking about? You have to live long and keep working with me.

"Yes, Yes. Ill, as long as I breathe."

The Elden villagers took their seats one after another.

They still looked around as if they couldnt believe that they were invited to such a place.

Apparently, they are the only Beast-people here.

Elden villagers shrank as the eyes of other guests felt stinging.

"Why do you all look like you're going to die? Did we come to a place where we shouldn't come? We've also been invited, so be confident."

"Yeah, we can't be gloomy on such a happy occasion. Look, even old-man Raccoon is saying something right after a long time."

Reville, you b*stard! What do you mean by that? Does it mean I'm usually just talking nonsense?"

Even if its not nonsense, you say a lot of useless things, dont you?

"Ouch!"

Reville and the Raccoon grandpa began to squabble as usual and contemplated Lagos cut in between and stopped the fight.

It may not have been intended, but thanks to the two, the tense atmosphere has become a little softer.

As soon as I tried to leave the place with confidence, in the atmosphere that got better, Miru hesitatingly came to me.

Uncle.

Yes Miru, what's wrong? Do you have something to say?"

"This"

"..?"

Miru took out a wooden box.

There was a pretty well-made flower bracelet inside.

Is this for me?

I want to give you something as a gift. It's not an expensive gift but I really worked hard on it yesterday."

Miru looked sullen as if she felt the present she had prepared was shabby compared to the colorful ornaments of the guests around.

I carefully took the flower bracelet out of the box.

The scent still flowed vividly from the flower decoration in the shape of a bracelet carefully made of stems.

It naturally warmed my heart when I imagined Miru running around the village yesterday, collecting materials, and making the bracelet.

It may seem a crude gift to someone, but not for me.

I immediately wore the flower bracelet on my left hand and gently stroked Miru's head.

"Thank you, Miru. I love it."

Really?

Of course! I'll be wearing it at the Swearing-in, so watch from here. Okay?"

Yes! I'll be watching.

Miru giggled with a happy expression when she heard I liked it.

Sihyeon, we really have to go now.

Ah! Yes, Everyone. I'll be back later."

I left a hasty greeting to the Elden villagers and moved again with Ryan.

Before going on to the Swearing-in stage, I headed to where the farm members were.

I think the Swearing-in is about to begin.

Finally? Hurry up and finish it.

Senior, aren't you too nervous? Just do what we practiced together last night.

It's like a dream Now Sihyeon is really becoming a Lord Good luck, Sihyeon.

Kaneff, Alfred, Lia, and Andras calmly gave support in their own unique way.

Papa!

I'll be back, dear.

Un! I'll be waiting here."

Lastly, I hugged Speranza lightly and headed toward the Swearing-in stage.

There was a Demon on the stage waiting for me with the letter of appointment directly from the Castle.

It was the Demon who had already visited the farm several times.

"Sorry, I'm a little late."

"That's all right. It's not too late..but Lord Cardis, youve got a fancy Swearing-in ceremony. I didn't expect it to be this big."

"It just happened"

"From Sir. Kael of the Verdi family to Sir. Agrun of Germour WizardryIt feels like yesterday you got appointed as an Ester, but the influence of Lord Cardis has grown so much."

The Middle-aged Demon stroked his beard with a look of surprise.

As he said, it hasn't taken so much time since I got first appointed as Ester.

I feel like I'm getting a super promotion against my will

"Honestly, I'm also puzzled."

"Isnt it all thanks to Lord Cardis outstanding abilities?"

"I don't think I've done a great job worthy of such appreciation."

"Hahaha! Humility remains the same."

The middle-aged Demon, who laughed briefly, calmed down.

He went onto the stage first, leaving the message to come when he gave a signal.

"Attention everyone."

The low and thick voice of the middle-aged Demon spread around.

In an instant, a heavy silence fell on the ceremony hall.

"We will begin the ceremony to appoint a new owner of the Cardis estate."

A knight with a flag symbolizing the Demon Lord stood next to him.

I approached him in time at the signal from the middle-aged Demon.

The middle-aged Demon pulled a roll of paper out of his arms and shouted solemnly.

"This is the message of the Great Lord who rules Arkadan, and the guardian of the eternal throne. Show your due respect"

I showed my courtesy according to the procedure to which Im fully accustomed now.

The middle-aged Demon unrolled the scroll and read what was written.

It started with inscrutable rhetoric and formalities

Normally, I would have listened to it with one ear and let it go with the other.

Now, I was very nervous and focused on every word of the middle-aged Demon.

This time it's not just listening.

I had to say the exact answer to the question set in the middle.

It was a kind of pledge procedure to promise to be faithful to the Lord's duties and pledge allegiance to the Demon Lord.

It was a little complicated, but I continued without any problems thanks to several practices with Alfred yesterday.

As I continued to answer busily, we entered the last part.

"I'll ask you one last time. Will you swear allegiance to the throne that never melts?"

"I swear."

When my last answer was over, a faint smile fell on the lips of the middle-aged Demon, who kept a solemn expression.

"The ceremony of the oath has been established. The new lord recognized by the Demon Lord, please get up from your seat."

I slowly rose and looked up at the middle-aged Demon.

He carefully rolled up the scroll and handed it to me.

I took it carefully and took it into my arms.

After nodding to me once, the middle-aged Demon turned and looked at the side of many people.

"The Demon Lord's Ester and a human being from another world who received the title of Cardis!! He is now reborn as the "Sihyeon Lefmere Cardis" and will be the eternal owner of the Cardis Estate!"

Sihyeon Lefmere Cardis.

Lefmere is the name given directly to me by the Demon Lord and is the name of a forest fairy recorded long ago.

The strange coincidence is that my surname, Lim, comes from the Chinese letter , which means forest.

People's applause and cheers erupted at the same time as the middle-aged Demon finished his words.

I felt an indescribable emotion as I looked at the people congratulating me.

As soon as the performers were about to play the instrument after the declaration.

Everyone had to stop because of another group who came to congratulate me.

BOW WO WOOOOOOOOOOO

BOW WO WOOOOOOOOOO

A distant cry of Yakums.

The cry was so loud that I felt like the ground was shaking a little bit.

Except for me and the farm members, everyone was surprised by the sudden loud noise and looked around.

"Car, Lord Cardis?! This This is?"

"It's fine. It's their way of congratulating me."

"What?"

I looked in the direction of the Yakums, roughly reassuring the confused middle-aged Demon.

I smiled as I imagined the cute Yakums who cried loudly to wish me.

The surprise to the audience didnt end here.

FLUTTER FLUTTER!

SPARKLE SPARKLE!

Glittering powders began to fall from the sky.

The colorful and beautiful powder filled the surrounding area with pleasant scents.

"This powder"

"Ah, there! It's a fairy!"

"What fairy!"

"So many fairies at once"

In the sky, many fairies flapped their wings and flew around excitedly.

"Hahaha!"

"Sihyeon! Congratulations, pipi!"

"Excited, pipo!"

Everyone looked at the fairies in the sky with bewildered eyes.

Among the cute fairies, a Fairy with tangerine-colored hair came down and gently sat on my shoulder.

"Sihyeon! Congratulations, Popi!"

"Thank you Gyuri! Are you here for my Swearing-in?

"Swearing-in? I don't know about that. Popi"

"Huh?"

"I came here because Speranza said today is a very special and happy day for Sihyeon. Popi"

"Oh I see."

It was like Speranza, who had been looking forward to today, told Gyuri about the Swearing-in ceremony.

"What's Swearing-in, popi?"

I explained very briefly that I was sworn in as Lord.

Then Gyuri flapped her wings with great joy.

Then, Is Sihyeon, the owner of this place. Popi?

Yes, that's right.

Wow! Good for you, Popi! Then you can plant more flowers and strawberries around here in the future, Popi!"

Gyuri's eyes twinkled with anticipation.

I smiled quietly at the pure appearance.

As I naturally talked with Gyuri, the middle-aged Demon called out.

"Lord Cardis why these fairies"

"Oh that's"

I thought about my answer for a moment, and then I just explained to him whatever came to my mind.

"They were some guests who came to congratulate me secretly. Hahaha!"

Scratching my back head embarrassingly I burst into laughter.

The middle-aged Demon looked at me with an expression of incomprehension.

The congratulations from the mischievous fairies continued for a while, and soon beautiful music was played by the performers who regained their senses.

On that day.

Rumors of the Swearing-in ceremony of the new lord of an Estate on the outskirts quickly spread throughout the Demon World.

This is because everyone who attended the Swearing-in ceremony talked about the amazing things that happened there.

Letting aside the rumors about the scale of a huge event that can only be seen in the events of the great aristocratic families, many people were amazed by the rumor that there were not only important figures from the five great Aristocratic families but also famous people who were not easily seen at ordinary aristocratic events.

On top of that, there were rumors that the Lord of the territory had the ability to freely handle ferocious Beasts.

All those who attended the Swearing-in ceremony testified in unison that the rumor was true.

-I saw it clearly! When the lord of  Cardis raised his hand, the scary Beasts cried at the same time.

-The fairies, whom Ive never seen in my life, moved at the command of Lord Cardis.

-Oh! It's true! Look at this here. This is the powder that the fairies poured!

-Arent there a lot of useless lands where demons don't live in Cardis?

-There are many demonic beasts who follow the lord.

Rumors created another rumor.

As soon as the new "Lord" appeared, it left a huge impression on many people of the Demon World.
