After the group of Yakum came to the farm, routine life at Demon Farm has changed a bit.

After going to work in a good mood while enjoying the fresh air, the first thing I did was to visit Hermosa.

Unlike other Yakums, who have already woken up and grazing, Hermosa was still sleeping in the barn when I went.

As the days left for the baby Yakum to be born nears, Hermosa became more sleepy and her movements became sluggish.

I made sure she was resting without any problems and I  quietly walked out of the barn.

I changed to work clothes in the room, and then looked briefly at the Yakum herd before cleaning the stables.

A Yakum that was grazing found me and approached me.

She pushed her face in with a low-pitched cry.

– Boo woo woo.

“Chorongi. Good morning, How are you feeling.?”

Recently, there have been many Yakum who come to greet me like this.

There are some guys who are completely indifferent to me, but what is certain is that there is no longer a single Yakum who is wary of me.

The same goes for the leader Bighorn.

Occasionally, when I call in a loud voice ‘Bighorn’, he would look at my direction as if he understand it as his name.

Of course, he immediately turns his head away with an annoyed look, but that figure has also been felt pretty cute lately.

Looking at them up close like this, I was able to distinguish the appearance of the guys naturally.

Easily distinguishable by size or shape of horns.

If I look at the details, the brightness and gloss of the eyes, hair, and even the subtle differences in crying was clearly visible.

The other members of the farm said they had no idea what the difference was, but I started to feel the difference in my eyes and ears.

The girl who came up to me now and greeted me with a bright eyes, so I caller her ‘Chorongi’, which means lantern in Korean

Sooner or later, I may be able to name all the Yakums.

After saying goodbye to Chorongi, I headed to the stable.

There I greeted the horses and started cleaning and feeding them as usual.

On the way back after tidying up the stables, I headed to the barn once more.

Hermosa who got up while I was cleaning greeted me.

– Boo woo woo.

“Are you awake ?”

Hermosa forcibly got up with a loud sound as if her body was heavy.

I immediately filled a bucket with clean water and brought it to her for drinking easily.

She hasn’t eaten since yesterday and she only drank a little bit of water like this.

It seemed that the day everyone had been waiting for was approaching.

“Let’s drink a little bit more Hermosa.”

– Boo woo woo.

I looked at Hermosa for a moment, patted her head, and then headed to the farm building.

Now it was time to start the second task of the morning.

Today’s breakfast menu is pancakes, scrambled eggs, sausage and salad.

Pancakes and syrup were the ingredients I brought, and the rest were the ingredients of the demon world that Andras brought.

In particular, the Sausage from the Demon World was very similar in its production method and tastes better than that of the Earth.

Since it was made by hand, it had a chewy texture and rich gravy that could not be compared with ready-made products in Earth.

Of course, the attention of the demons was focused on the sweet and fluffy pancakes with the fragrant smell.

They like sweet taste, so sometimes I feel like I’m giving food to children.

“Do you like the taste of the pancakes?”

“It’s great.”

“It tastes so good when eaten with syrup.”

“If it tastes like this, I won’t get tired of eating it every morning.”

In turn, Kaneff, Lia, and Andras left their comments.

I feel it while preparing a meal, but it seemed like a very happy thing when someone compliments the food you made.

“But Andras.”

“Yes, Mr. Kaneff.”

“Why are you having breakfast here?”

“Hmm, I’m suppling daily necessities and food ingredients, and I also have bought something Sihyeon asked for last time.”

Kaneff narrowed his eyes at the explanation.

“I don’t think you’ve come this often before. Also, is it free to use your space jump magic at will? Aren’t you supposed to use your own magic stones to come here?”

“……”

From what I heard, Andras was said to be an excellent dimensional magician.

Taking things out of his arms like a magician is also a part of dimensional magic.

When he visits the farm, he uses a dimensional magic called ‘space jump’, which requires quite a lot of magical power, second to the difficulty.

As Andras’ expression hardened gradually, Kaneff’s interrogation became more persistent.

“You wouldn’t have been given a magic stone from above to do something useless like this? Shall I contact directly the head of the department after a long time?”

“Oh, that’s a misunderstanding. I never use it my way. just…….”

“just?”

“Among the magic stones I received for research, I only used a few that were reserved for emergencies.”

Like a prey stuck in front of a snake.

Andras rolled his eyes, unable to move at Kaneff’s bitter gaze.

At just the right time, I cut between the two of them.

“Please stop it Boss. Andras must have had lot of things going on. And he also helped the farm a lot.”

“Hmm…”

Thanks to my defence, Kaneff withdrew his bitter eyes. 

“ I’ll be watching. If it’s strange, I’ll go find it myself.”

“I will keep that in mind. Mr. Kaneff.”

Kaneff turned to his plate with a proper warning.

Andras thanked me with his eyes.

“Mr. Andras, Did you find about what I asked for last time?” 

“Are you talking about the birth of Yakum? I did a search, but couldn’t find any information. sorry.”

“ That’s too bad.”

I was worried as the day for Hermosa’s labour was approaching fast right before my eyes.

For many animals, even humans, giving birth to a life was a burdensome task.

It would be nice if I could get some information, but I couldn’t find any information about it.

I brought the group of Yakum here, and as Hermosa depended on me a lot, I felt a lot of responsibility and burden at the same time.

“Straighten your face. It’s not going to be resolved by putting on such a dark expression anyway.” 

“ Mr. Kaneff is right Sihyeon, don’t worry too much.”

At Kaneff and Lia’s words, I smiled.

But just like any human mind.

Even if my head knew it, my heart didn’t follow it that well.

Please don’t worry about anything….

The first thing that marked the beginning.

It was the strange behaviour of the Yakum group.

They surrounded the barn as if protecting Hermosa, and began to look everywhere with a nervous expression.

Clearly, it looked like they were trying to protect the barn from any danger that might come.

Noticing the strangeness, me and everyone in the farm building ran towards the barn.

“It’s finally starting.”

At Lia’s muttering words, everyone’s eyes turned to the barn far away.

Hermosa in pain is seen through the open entrance of the barn.

I wanted to get closer, but the momentum of the Yakum group around me was unusual. 

It seemed to be instinctively trying to protect a fellow in a vulnerable state.

I ran through Ryan, and asked him to tell my mother that I won’t be able to come home today.

I don’t know how long it will take to give birth, but I wanted to be here till the end.

It’s been 8 hours since the labour pain started.

It was late at night after work time passed.

Hermosa is still groaning in pain, and the other Yakums were guarding the surrounding.

I watched it from afar and cheered for the Hermosa in my heart.

“Haah… Do you want to be here all day.?”

Kaneff, who was sitting with me, asked with a loud yawn.

“Yes Boss. If possible, I want to watch until the end. If you are tired, you should go in and rest.” 

“ I would love to go but I can’t, because if I’m not here, you might do something reckless…again.”

“……?”

“Sihyeon. Can I bring you a blanket to cover yourself with?”

Although summer is definitely approaching, the night weather here is very chilly. 

It was at a high altitude, so the cold wind was blowing. 

“Even with a windshield, it is still cold. Please bring me one Lia.”

“Yes. Wait a minute. I’ll bring it to you soon.

“I….! Hey you didn’t ask me.? What you are doing is more colder than the climate here. Don’t you think so.?” 

Instead of answering Kaneff’s question, Lia went inside the building without turning back.

Kaneff only smirked at her reaction.

At that time.

– Boo woo woooooooooooo!!

With a loud cry of Hermosa, the first baby Yakum began to appear little by little.

“Boss..Boss! I see a baby.…a small baby.”

The baby came out very slowly, and when the upper part of the body came out halfway, the baby throbbed and slipped out at once.

The other Yakum, who was waiting by her side, licked the newborn baby and cleared the dregs from the birth.

I was very happy with the long-awaited birth of Hermosa’s first child.

Kaneff, who was next to me, also watched the mysterious moment of the birth seriously.

When Lia returned with a blanket, Hermosa announced the birth of the second baby Yakum to the world, without too much time, the second baby came out more easily than the first.

I was able to put on a relaxed expression since everything went well.

But that expression didn’t last as long as I expected.

The third cub that began to appear, showed a different aspect from the previous two.

In the first and second, the upper body appeared first, and for the third one it was the lower body that came first.

Something is strange… 

I have no professional knowledge, but I intuitively felt that something is wrong.

Kaneff and Lia also hardened their faces.

I hoped that my thoughts would be in vain and believed that the childbirth will finish soon, but unlike before, the situation became more and more serious.

The tension of the other Yakums around the barn is also heightening.

In my head, the warning signs were constantly ringing.

At this rate, both the baby and the mother will be in danger.

At the same time as the thought, I stepped forward.

“I will go….!”

As soon as I finished speaking, I ran to the barn.

No, I was going to do that…

 vroom vruu!

“Uh-huh!”

Blue chains wrapped around my body.

As if caught in a spider’s web, I could not move a single finger at will.

“That’s not allowed.”

“Boss……….?!”

The image of Kaneff wielding a blue energy in his left hand reflected in my two eyes.
