How to get Healed at Demon Farm

Chapter 307

I designed an operation, following Cheese's guidance, to capture the Divine Beast.

The plan was straightforward: we would gradually block the Divine Beast's anticipated movement path, forcing it to take a specific route. Once the Divine Beast had no other option but to flee down that route, we would be waiting in advance to capture it. Cheese would assist by also helping to block the route.

FLASH!

Flames soared around the bodies of Tae, Sehe, and Jin.

"What the..!"

"Ugh!"

"Kyaa!"

They exclaimed in surprise at the sudden fire, but soon realized that the fire was not hot and swept away the surprised heart.

As soon as the initial shock of the flame dissipated, they turned to the source of the flame, a big cat.

"Oh, Uncle. This flame is not from that cat, is it?"

Sehe asked, to which I smiled and replied,

"That's right. Cheese has given you all his energy."

"Why did he do that all of a sudden?"

"By sharing Cheese's energy like this, the Divine Beast will be able to sense it from far away. You saw how scared the Divine Beast was of Cheese earlier, right? Maybe if it senses this energy, it'll think it's Cheese and run away on its own."

"Oh…"

The three nodded with understanding expressions and looked at Cheese curiously.

Cheese, of course, turned his head away as if the attention was annoying.

Three Guardian Guild members, who had taken over Cheese's energy, and Ryan, who had the energy of the Demon, decided to work together to drive the Divine Beast.

Ryan did not receive Cheese's energy, but he planned to properly pressure the Divine Beast using his Demonic energy.

Thus, everyone moved once again to capture the Divine beast.

⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩ ⏩

It was early lunch when Ashmir suddenly called out, but right now the sky was already turning red as the sun began to set.

It was a short period of time, so it seemed that it would get dark quickly even after a little while.

Apprentice Urki continued to look around with a very anxious look on his face.

"Is this the only way to catch the Divine Beast? It's going to be dark soon, then it's going to be harder to find…”

"Stay calm. This is the best way to catch the Divine Beast without using our abilities," Ashmir reassured him.

"Ms. Ashmir is right. It's going as planned so far. Let's wait a little longer calmly."

We kept waiting for the Divine Beast to move, as we tried to ease Urki's anxiety.

But it was a little cold trying to wait.

I didn't realize it when we were chasing the Divine Beast and constantly moving, but when I stayed still, I felt my body cool down and the temperature dropped.

Pow woo wooo…josei

"Akum, are you cold?"

Akum also shuddered and trembled as it became quite cold.

Feeling sorry for him, I unzipped my coat and tried to embrace him.

SUZZZZZ

But, suddenly, warm energy came from somewhere and pushed away the cold.

Akum, who was crouching, also raised his head in a warm warmth.

When I turned my head towards the warm energy, there, a large cheese cat was watching us with a nonchalant expression.

"Thank you, Cheese.”

[…….]

As I expressed my gratitude to Cheese, he pretended not to notice and averted his gaze.

Akum, meanwhile, approached Cheese and affectionately rubbed against him.

Pow woo wooo

Cheese, while clearly annoyed by Akum's antics, eventually relented and embraced him.

I couldn't help but smile at the tsundere-like behavior.

“Ah-chu”

Suddenly, I heard a sneeze and turned to see Ashmir with a slightly red nose.

I realized that the two Angels were still exposed to the cold and felt a sense of pity for her.

Despite her previous troublesome behavior and irritation, I couldn't help but feel sorry for her in her current state.

I looked to Cheese and gestured for him to provide warmth to the Angels, and despite his obvious reluctance, he eventually complied with my request.

The faces of the two Angels, which had turned white, came to life a little. Ashmir quietly bowed her head toward me with gratitude.

And at that moment, the ringing of the smartphone was heard.

I quickly pulled out my smartphone and picked it up.

It was a call from Jin.

-Bro! The divine beast just ran away from our side to the dimensional gate.

"Really?"

-If it goes according to the plan, the Divine beast would have moved in your direction now.

"Okay. Good job, Jin!"

Now it was our turn to step up.

As planned, the Divine beast must have fled toward here.

"Akum, please do it one more time."

Pow woo wooo!

I held out the blanket that the Divine beast was using to Akum.

After checking the smell again, the baby Yakum immediately started to move.

We followed him quickly.

Akum passed the bakery he had seen before and headed toward the narrow alley that ran to the side.

Behind the building, in a dark space, a place where people's eyes were hard to reach, the presence of a small creature was felt.

Kkyuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu?

As soon as the Divine beast saw us, it opened its eyes wide in surprise, as if saying, [How did you know I was here?]

"Uh, we really found it!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Sihyeon. Thanks to you, we can take the Divine beast safely."

Urki cheered with a look of [I'm alive now!] and Ashmir calmly greeted me as usual.

"It was fortunate that we could find it before it got darker. You guys worked hard, too."

– Pow woow wooo

"Nyaaaa!"

I also patted the baby Yakum and Cheese, who suffered with a proud expression.

Kkyuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…

The divine beast, driven to a dead end, groaned to gather strength.

It was probably trying to open a portal, but it seemed impossible to open it consecutively as we expected.

"Sihyeon, we'll take over from here. Apprentice Urki!"

Ashmir, who stepped forward, signaled Urki.

"Yes!"

Urki, who answered vigorously, slowly headed toward the Divine beast. As he approached, the Divine beast's expression darkened.

Kyukykyuuuuuuuuu.

"Now~! We have to go back. We shouldn't cause any more trouble to others."

When Urki reached out, the Divine beast flapped its wings on the head and rebelled.

Kkyuuuuuu! Kkyu!

"Ah! Calm down."

It was not that the Divine beast was attacked by Urki, it was just shaking violently and showing its rejection.

"Um…”

The sad feeling of the Divine beast's crying made my heart heavy. While my head was getting confused, Akum pulled my leg with his mouth.

Kyukyukyuuuuuu.

– Pow woo wooooo…

Akum also made a sad cry as if he felt sorry for the Divine beast.

After patting Akum's head for a while, I rose up with a determined expression.

"Excuse me, Urki."

"Ugh.”

"Urki!"

"Did you call me?"

Urki, who was still in a scuffle with the Divine beast, finally answered my call.

"If you don't mind, can I have a conversation with that little one?"

"Huh? Talking with the Divine beast?"

Urki asked back with a puzzled look. I nodded my head firmly again.

He looked at Ashmir behind me. Maybe he was trying to pass the decision to her.

Ashmir, who hesitated to answer for a while, opened her mouth with difficulty.

"… Apprentice Urki, Stand back.”

"What? According to the guidelines, it is necessary to block contact between outsiders and the Divine beast…"

"Sihyeon helped us correct the mistakes we made. And he's a better person than anyone else in this kind of work. You have to show respect for that.”

I looked at Ashmir in amazement.

Even though it was me who suggested it, I never expected her to gladly allow it.

Urki backed down on the order. While stepping down, he looked bitter as if he could not understand Ashmir's decision.

As Urki moved away, the Divine beast regained its stability for a while. Of course, the stability quickly turned to vigilance as I stepped out immediately.

Kyu kkyuu yuuu

The divine beast also expressed its anxiety with a low cry.

I kneeled on the spot, keeping a distance so that it wouldn't be too anxious.

Kkyu yuuuu

As if my behavior was unexpected, the Divine beast tilted his head for a while.

However, it did not put down vigilance easily.

I slowly expanded my consciousness and used my ability to communicate.

‘Is it okay to use this kind of skill?’

I was worried that the Angels would protest, but fortunately, the two Angels just watched my actions.

Recognizing that it was okay to use my ability, I focused my attention on the Divine beast in front of me in earnest.

Even though it was a Divine beast, not a Demon beast, its emotions began to be clearly felt.

The first emotion I read was anxiety. Fascinatingly, the divine beast had more anxiety toward the two Angels behind me than toward me.

I tried to read more of my inner emotions after passing through a large lump of emotion called anxiety.

But I tilted my head to another emotion I felt inside.

It was the feeling of ‘unfair' and ‘disappointment’, not what I was expecting.

I was worried that the Angels were being mean to the Divine beast, but that didn’t mean to be the case either.

The Divine beast's emotions were not heavy emotions such as ‘fear' or ‘hate'.

It was a bit lighter…

Simply put, the divine beast was upset.

I scratched my head and looked at the two angels.

"Two of you, did you do anything wrong to the Divine beast?"

"I don't remember anything in particular."

"Me, too. I always follow the guidelines…"

Kkyuuuuuu! Kkyuuuu!

The Divine beast reacted furiously to the word "guidelines."

The guidelines Urki was talking about seemed to have something to do with this case.

While talking to the Angels for a while, Akum suddenly approached the Divine beast.

Divine beast shuddered for a moment at the sudden approach.

Kyuu Kkyuu yuuu

– Pow woo woooo

However, the Divine beast slowly put down its guard due to Akum's friendly behavior.

Pow woow wooo

Kkyu Kyuu kyuu…

Pow wooo wooooo

Kyuu! Kkyuyuyu! yuuuuu!

Baby Yakum and the Divine beast talked little by little, and later they became close quickly and continued the conversation nonstop.

When I overheard the conversation between the two with my communication ability, I realized the Divine beast's situation and burst into a despondent laugh.

And…

I looked pitifully at the two bewildered angels.

‘Whew… these frustrating Angels…’

Even I would have run away if I were a Divine beast!
