“Ugh!”
An unidentified shock passed in my body as I passed through the dimensional door.
I groaned and sat down in my feet.
What?
It has never happened like this before…
I was a little flustered, but I quickly recovered from the shock and rose again.
Then, as usual, I opened the door and went out to the office where the Ryan was .
“Welcome back Sihyeon… Oh, did something happen? Your face looks pale?”
Ryan quickly noticed my abnormality.
“I don’t know why, I just felt a huge shock as I passed through the dimensional door. I think it’s because of the shock.”
“Shock? Are you hurt?”
“No, I’m not hurt. I was dizzy a while ago, but I feel much better now.”
“Then I’m glad. But it’s strange. There’s no way anything would go wrong with the dimensional door…”
Ryan tilted his head with an expression of incomprehensibility.
I said with a lighter look.
“It could be my misunderstanding, so don’t worry too much about it.”
“Well, I think it’s hard to call it Sihyeon’s misunderstanding with the look in your face… Tomorrow is your day off, right? I’ll check while you rest.”
“I’m sorry to bother you.”
“No, it’s an important matter, so I’ll check it out.”
He offered drop me at home since he was worried about my physical condition, but I refused politely since I felt perfectly fine after a while.
After saying my goodbye to Ryan, I left the Inferris office.
“Ohhhhhh”
“Ahhhh.”
Poooooooo
The three buddies screamed and flung to the ground.
Speranza, the first to come to her senses, stood up first.
Then she looked around and opened her mouth.
“Papa……Papa…?”
She searched desperately for her father, but it was a dark back alley with no one around.
“Hmm, did we succeed?”
“Gyuri, where are we? I can’t see papa.”
“Sihyeon isn’t here, popi.? That can’t be true, popi.”
The trio looked uneasy after confirming that there was no Sihyeon around them.
“Let’s get moving, popi.”
“Where?”
Po woo?
“I think I hear voices from over there popi, Let’s go over there, popi”
Bright light and the noise of the people came from the end of the dark back alley pointed by Gyuri.
The three buddies began to walk according to Gyuri’s instructions.
As soon as they got out of the back alley, they were amazed at the scenery unfolded in front of them.
“Wow…Look at that popi… The building is so high popi.”
Poo wo wooo
Akum jumped curiously as he saw a large car running around.
Everything seemed strange and special to them when they first looked at the City center.
“Speranza, Speranza! Everyone walking by has no horns like Sihyeon popi. Here, Popi… I’m sure Sihyeon is here Popi.”
“I have to find Papa.”
Pow wo woo
Looking at the hornless humans, not Demons, they were sure that Lim Sihyeon would be here.
The three buddies burned their will again and began to look around.
But
“Look at that! Isn’t that a Demon?”
“She’s too cute for a Demon. But I want to take a picture.”
“What is that?”
“Is it a cosplay?”
It’s a combination of three buddies that’s unusual even in the Demon world.
Quite naturally, they stood out in the City center.
People gradually gathered around.
No one had bad intentions, but they seemed threatening to the eyes of the three buddies.
“Something’s wrong, popi. They’re surrounding us, popi.”
“We have to run away. Akum.”
Poo-woo!
Speranza and Gyuri got on the back of Akum.
The baby Yakum sprang out with a loud cry.
“Huh?
“Huh… Huh? They ran away!!”
“Guys, wait. Just one picture.”
Everyone who gathered and saw the lightening speed of Akum showed a confused expression.
Thus, the three buddies began to wander around the city center in search of Lim Sihyeon.
“Oh! It’s Sihyeon..!”
In front of the Apartment, Yerin found me and came running.
She was dressed in suits and seemed to be about to enter the Apartment.
“Are you too coming home now.?”
“Oh, you must have also been worked today.”
“Yes, I’m the team’s ace, so of course I used a lot of energy today.”
Seeing Yerin, boosting with a carefree attitude, I burst into laughter.
Contrary to her energetic behavior, her face showed an irresistible sense of fatigue.
“Good job.”
“Hehe.”
With a little dry encouragement, she smiled like a satisfied cat.
We talked a little as we headed in front of the elevator.
“Oh! I’ve worked hard today, so I’ll have a good rest for a while. Sihyeon, are you going to work at the farm tomorrow.?”
“I’m going to take a break tomorrow because of mom’s appointment at the hospital.”
“ What..?Is Aunt Saya sick?”
“She had a major operation few months back. She’s OK now. You don’t have to worry too much since it’s just a regular check-up.”
“What? You scared me!”
While talking, we quickly took the elevator and got off on the floor where our house was.
I entered the password and opened the door.
“Mom, I’m home.”
“I’m home too, Aunt Saya.”
“Oh, you two must have met in front of the house. Welcome home.”
“Aunt Saya, I had a really hard day.”
“You must have been tired. Take a rest in the living room for a while. I’ll make dinner for you in a minute.”
“Yes!”
Yerin threw herself into the living room sofa with a smile.
I looked at her acting so naturally in our house with an absurd face.
“Hey. Yerin.”
“Huh?”
“Why did you come into our house. Did you forget that you live next door.?”
“Ehhhhh. Don’t be so stingy. I don’t want to go into a house where no one welcomes me after hard work.”
I was dumbfounded by a Yerin’s whining.
On the other hand, my mother smiled as if she felt Yerin’s action cute.
“As Yerin said, It will lonely. It’s not like we don’t know each other, and it’s better for us to have more people, right?”
Ye-rin’s visit seemed to be nice to my mother, who prefers the strong sensibility of the countryside, where the entire village lived like a family.
I had no reason to kick her out, as long as my mother was not uncomfortable.
“Phew. Then do as you please.”
When I expressed my intention to surrender, Yerin smiled again like a cat.
“Yerin, don’t you have to wash up?”
“Nope, I already washed up in the guild building since I know I will be coming here right away.”
“You’ve been planning it from the beginning. Then I’ll go wash up.”
“Okay, wash up slowly. I’ll look after Aunt Saya in the meantime.”
I went into the bathroom and began to wash myself.
The warm stream of water made the muscles tired due to the intense swordsmanship training throb.
If I could, I wanted to soak in hot water, but I washed my body quickly as I heard my mother’s cooking sound from outside.
As soon as I got out of the bathroom, I took a can of cold beer out of the refrigerator.
As soon as I opened the can, the sound of a carbonated burst came out coolly.
I took a can of beer right around my mouth before the foam went out any further.
gulp! gulp! gulp!
“Woooow!”
I was amazed at the taste of beer that I hadn’t tasted in a long time.
If I had work the next day, I don’t drink much, so I took out beer for the first time in a while since tomorrow is my day off.
“Sihyeon! Bring me a can, too.”
Yerin’s voice came from the living room.
I was happy with the taste of beer I hadn’t tasted in a long time, so I took another can of beer out of the refrigerator without a murmur.
Yerin was sitting comfortably on the sofa, looking at her smartphone.
I asked, putting the beer on the table in front of the sofa.
“What’s are looking at so intensely.?”
“It’s a cute Demon girl. Social media is a mess right now with pictures of her.”
“Cute Demon girl.?”
I looked at Yerin’s smartphone screen from the side, drinking the remaining beer.
As soon as I checked the identity of the cute Demon girl on the screen, I was so surprised that I spilled the beer from my mouth.
“Pfft!”
“Ah! What’s this? Nasty. What’s wrong with you all of a sudden?”
“Cough, cough… Hey.. Give it to me for a second.”
I took Yerin’s smartphone by force.
The photo posted on SNS showed a backside that was too familiar.
‘What the hell is going on here?’
This is definitely Speranza and Akum.
“Yerin, is this picture real?”
“Since the picture was posted in real time on other accounts besides this account, it’s probably not fake.”
As she said, the pictures of the children were constantly being updated on SNS.
As soon as I got a grasp of the current situation.
Confusion gradually turned into urgency.
And my head was filled with the thought of finding the children first.
I took the can of beer from Yerin’s hand.
“You haven’t had a drink yet, have you ? Help me.”
“What, what? What the hell happened now?”
“I’ll explain later. I have to go find these children first. Give me a ride to the place where the picture was taken.”
“What……?”
I didn’t have time to explain it calmly.
I stood up and rushed to the door while dragging Yerin’s hand.
“What’s the matter Si? Dinner is almost ready. Where are you going?”
“Mom, I’m in a hurry now, I have to go out. I’ll have dinner later. Yerin, let’s go!”
“Argh! I’m tired and hungry!”
I took Yerin, who was crying, and left the house.
“Here. Go to the place where they took this picture. According to the post, it’s said to be taken about 15 minutes ago.”
“15 minutes….”
I got on Yerin’s car while looking at the SNS
We arrived at the street in the picture.
First, I asked the people around and tried to track down the children’s traces.
“The Demon girl in this picture? I haven’t seen it.”
“I didn’t see it myself. I think I heard a scream over there a while ago.”
“These guys? The police also came to ask me earlier. They ran away a few minutes ago.”
It wasn’t easy to track down because the children moved faster than I thought.
In addition, I felt the urgency of the situation when I heard that the police were dispatched.
There is no time.
We need to find the place where the children are immediately.
While searching for a way in my head, I remembered a time when I used to communicate with many bees in the flower garden.
There was no time to lose.
As soon as I thought of a way, I immediately put it into action.
“Sihyeon?”
“Wait a minute. Be quiet. I’m going to look for the children now.”
“…?”
I closed my eyes slowly and calmed down my excitement.
I began to spread my communication skill in all directions, as I did with the bees.
My consciousness stretched out like a spider web around me.
I was confused by the mixed energy of many people around me, but I was confident that I could accurately distinguish the energy of the children than anyone else.
I felt a pain surge in my head as I reached the limit.
Nevertheless, I never stopped using my abilities.
The most important thing right now was to find the children quickly.
After using my ability to endure the dizziness and nausea, I was able to find a very familiar energy.
Poo wooo…
“I’m tired popi “
“A little more. I’m sure Papa will come to pick us.”
The children’s voices echoed faintly in my head.
As soon as I got the location, I opened my eyes wide.
“I found them.”
“ Did you really found them? How on earth…”
“This way. Come with me!”
‘Please be safe….’
