“I didn’t expect the Verdi to send people. It was also the third son of the Verdi family.”

Kaneff muttered while looking at the Demon from the Verdi family.

I asked Andras next to me in a low voice.

“Is the Verdis, a prestigious family?”

“Yes, it is one of the five prominent families that defend the Crown. It also includes mine and Ryan’s family.”

I nodded at the explanation and looked at Andras with a fresh look.

Since I always saw him getting bullied, it felt strange for a moment when he said, he was from a prestigious family.

“The Verdis are famous for their excellent swordsmanship. Most of the imperial Knights in Demon Lord castle are all from the Verdi family.”

“Oh….”

“Most members of the Verdi family don’t keep the sword away from their bodies, even when they sleep.”

While me and Andras were whispering, the Demon Verdi took something out from his chest and handed it to Kaneff.

“What is this?”

“It’s a letter from my grandfather to you.”

“Ugh… That terrible old man…?”

“Mind your words. He’s the Elder of our family.”

“Ya, ya….there are enough minding…”

Kaneff, roughly answering, took out the letter and began to read it.

As he read the letter, his expression changed every moment.

He looked as if he had something troubling, on his face.

“Well, if you were from the Verdis, you would have skills, so there would be no problem with the escort.”

The Demon Verdi turned his face towards me and opened his mouth.

“If you want me to be an escort to that hornless man, then I refuse.”

“What?”

“I came here under the Castle’s orders, but I don’t want to lift my sword to protect a worthless person.”

My head felt dizzy from the absurd situation that was unraveling in front of me.

It felt like getting rejected from a girl I never even confessed.

No wonder it felt so strange from the beginning…

Kaneff and Andras had the same absurd look on their faces.

But this was not the end of the unexpected action.

“To be honest, I’m disappointed in you Mr. Kaneff. I can’t believe the great Kaneff, once called the invincible Demon, rotting his days on a farm like this. Aren’t you ashamed?”

Verdi’s voice made the room a little chilly.

“Ohhh… I can’t believe he said something like that to the boss.”

“I know. I don’t think this is going end well.”

“ Get ready. We have to stop them.”

No matter how rude and unlucky the Demon is, shouldn’t we let them go to live?

Andras and I looked nervous while preparing for the storm that will soon approach.

“Well…..You’re not wrong. It’s true that I’m being much more relaxed than before.”

“…?”

“You don’t want to take on escort duties, do you? Then I’ll give you a room, you’ll be quiet there, and you can go back after spending one month here.”

“…?!?!?!!”

What’s going on?

I was confused by the sudden warm wind, unlike the brutal storm I had expected.

It would have been normal if Kaneff had taken out the ruthless chain right away.

But instead, he calmly opened his mouth and said.

“Hey Verdi Kid, Keep one thing in mind. I don’t care if you behave like that to me, but never behave like that, or treat badly the rest of the farm members.”

Oh! Boss!

I finally realized how precious we are to ……

“Because I’m the only one on this farm who can treat them badly. Keep that in mind!”

…….That’s right.

That’s his true personality.

My heart, which almost got touched for a moment, soon sank into a deep ocean.

“I see, If we’re done talking, I’ll go out.”

He bowed briefly to Kaneff and went out of the room.

He looked disrespectful until the end.

“Mr. Kaneff. What happened to you? Why are you so generous all of a sudden? Did you eat something wrong?”

“No, I didn’t. I want to give him the taste of my fist but it can’t helped right now.”

Kaneff flapped the letter he was reading earlier.

“A long time ago, I owed a debt to a terrible old man. The letter is from the old man asking me to keep him here for at least a month.’”

“Andras…Who is the old man that can even order Boss?”

“He’s the former lord of the Verdi family. He greatly helped Mr. Kaneff, when he was in charge of the headquarters.”

There seemed to be something I didn’t know about, in that letter.

“I think that guy had some kind of an accident and was sent here for a while. I know it’s a bit of a bother, but bear with him for a month. After that, I’ll force him to go out.”

I didn’t like the rude Demon, but I couldn’t ignore Kaneff’s situation, so I nodded my head for now.

Lunch break on the farm.

At the right side of the table were Kaneff, me and Speranza, while on the left side was Andras.

Normally, we would have eaten with Lia.

Today, her seat was empty.

She had gone to serve the meal of Verdi.

I frowned looking at the vacant seat.

“We can just eat together here, but why does he have to eat in the room like that? Is this how the noble Demons are like?”

It has been a week since the demon named Verdi had been staying in the Farm.

We internally decided to treat the Verdi as guest of the farm.

It was an inevitable decision since we couldn’t force the Demon to work as he didn’t want to.

But the problem was that the Demon’s demands were too much and troublesome.

Lia had to prepare not only laundry and room cleaning, but also has to take meals to his room every time.

He told me that he didn’t like the ingredients of the dishes I made, and even ordered me to make them again.

Sometimes he ordered me to cut the grass of the vacant lot, saying that he want a place to train.

Of course, I refused all the ridiculous demands.

I’m treating him as a guest and not obliged to serve him.

Andras smiled awkwardly at my discontent.

“Most aristocrat Demons are like that. Rather, they wouldn’t even think what they are doing is wrong.”

“Both Andras or Ryan are also aristocrats, but you guys aren’t like that.?”

“Well….. we were influenced by someone who hated such kind of formalities…”

Andras looked at Kaneff while finishing his words.

I immediately understood and nodded my head.

“Just hang in there. I’ll kick that guy out in few days. If he do something too far out of line, report it to me right away.”

Seeing Kaneff, who ignores even the messenger of the Demon Lord enduring it like this, I felt curious about the his debt to the Verdi family’s Elder.

“Papa. I’m done eating.”

“Huh? You’re done already?”

“Un. Can I go out to play?”

“Sure. But don’t go too far. You always have to go only where you can see the farm buildings.”

While I was complaining, Speranza left the Dining room.

Whooooo

Whooooo

A Demon wielded a sword alone in the vacant lot behind a farm building.

The name of the Demon was Alfred Leon Verdi, the third son of the Verdi family.

It has been two hours since he started training after lunch.

Before he knew it, his face was covered with sweat.

His expression as he wielded the sword was getting worse, and he stabbed the sword he was holding into the ground.

A part of the sword got stuck on the ground with a dull sound.

“Dammit, I don’t have time to waste here… …”

He has been working on training for a week since he came to the farm, but he still felt that everything was lacking.

The compulsion to be strong quickly made him more nervous and sensitive.

“Not enough! More… More… More… I have to swing my sword more.”

Alfred led his exhausted body and pulled out the sword again.

His eyes were filled with terrible obsession and anxiety.

While he was concentrating on his training again.

A small step began to approach him cautiously.

They were the steps of Speranza, Akum and Gyuri.

The curious buddies moved stealthily.

They watched Alfred practicing from afar.

“Wow! That’s amazing”

“The sword is so fast popi. It seems like it’s bending popi.”

“Un… Un.”

-Pow wo wooo.

The three buddies glistened their eyes as if they were watching a strange performance.

However, the enjoyment of the unauthorized visitors did not last long.

Alfred, who was focusing on the sword, noticed someone approaching him.

At that moment, his concentration got broken, and at the same time, he screamed very sharply in anger and at the loss that his training got disturbed.

“I can’t believe there are people who peep at the training of others. Step forward right this moment.”

Bam

“Ouch!”

Speranza, surprised by the loud voice, fell down with a scream.

Frustrated Gyuri flapped her wings and flew around.

Alfred, who found the three buddies, slowly approached them with the sword in his hand.

Due to the aftermath of the intense training, his breathing was rough, and there was a slight madness in both of his eyes.

The figure came as a great fear to the three buddies.

Tears started coming from Speranza’s eyes little by little.

As if to protect the frightened Speranza, Akum stepped forward.

Pooooooooooooooooooo

Of course, contrary to his idea of threatening, he looked very cute.

When Alfred saw it, he stopped.

Akum felt confident that his threat had worked.

After a moment’s observation, Akum rushed towards Alfred.

Po wo woooooooooooo

“Akum !”

After lunch, I was hanging out the laundry with Lia.

Suddenly, I heard Gyuri’s voice mixed with crying.

“Sihyeon Sihyeon…. trouble popi”

“What’s wrong Gyuri? What’s the matter?”

“The Demon with the sword… …was crying… … fell down, popi”

“What? What the hell are you talking about?”

I couldn’t understand Gyuri’s gibberish.

“Anyway, you have to come soon, Popi”

“Oh, dear… Come let’s go.”

“I’ll come with you Siheyon.”

Following the agitated Gyuri, we quickly headed to the back of the farm building.

I found Speranza sitting not far away.

“Speranza!”

“Papa”

Speranza came running with tears as soon as she found me.

My heart sank at that sight.

I looked around Speranza’s body in fear that she might have been hurt.

“Are you all right, Speranza?”

“Are you hurt anywhere?”

Sniffle

Sniffle

” huh…Papa…. I’m fine.”

After confirming with my own eyes that there was nothing wrong with her body, I was able to relax holding Speranza in my arms.

As I calmed down my urgent mind and looked around, I realized that this was the place where the Demon Verdi trained.

‘That arrogant guy. How dare he?’

“Sihyeon. Sihyeon.”

“What Lia?”

“Well…look there… there’s Mr. Verdi…”

“Where is that guy? Today is the day he’s gonna……”

When I saw where Lia pointed, I lost the words I wanted to say for a moment.

Pow Wooooooooo

There, an unlucky Demon was lying unconscious, and Akum was standing proudly above him.

It looked like a hero who defeated a villain. ?

“What the… What happened here?”
