The first egg roll, which started passionately, ended in a disastrous failure.
I don't usually leave food.
But now, I had no choice but to throw away the remaining egg rolls because I couldn't even dare to eat them.
After that, we tried making egg rolls a few more tis, but unfortunately, the sa result prevailed.
". I'll clean up."
Completely depressed, Lia went into the kitchen to clean up.
Alfred, who had been looking around, followed her in to help.
I murmured with a look of incomprehension.
"Why are these results coming out? There was no problem with the ingredients or the cooking process!"
Kaneff sighed next to .
Ah, that's not the problem in the first place.
What? Then what's the problem?
Do you rember how Lia changed during the last outing?
The picnic? It wasn't that long, of course, I rember."
In many ways, I rembered the picnic where a lot of things happened.
In particular, another side of Lia was very shocking to .
The appearance of Lia right now is the state where she suppresses the Chaos Lia that she showed at the picnic. If she drinks alcohol, or if certain conditions are t, Chaos Lia will get released."
" "
But in her current state, Lia cant completely control the power of chaos. So, she often sheds a little bit of energy without realizing it."
Then.
That's right. Lia can't control her power when she cooks. The power of chaos undermines all order and laws, and the food affected by it cannot be delicious."
Two things surprised when I heard the story from Kaneff.
One was that the power of chaos that Lia had was amazing, and I was surprised once again that Kaneff knew exactly what caused it.
Did you know what was wrong with Lia's cooking?"
"Well, kind of it's gotten worse recently than it used to be.
Does Lia know about this?
Yeah, I'm sure she's been trying hard to control herself while cooking. In the end, the result ca out like this
I was at a loss for a mont.
I started it because I wanted to cheer for Lia's hobby, but it wasn't going to be as easy as I thought.
I felt even worse because I rembered her suffering during the picnic.
I kept thinking about it because I wanted to help sohow.
"Bossso can she make a normal dish if she can control that power of chaos?"
"Probably. You saw it from the side, didnt you? There is no problem with the recipe or ingredients."
"Um."
Just as the conversation with Kaneff ca to an end, Lia and Alfred ca out after cleaning up.
I made up my mind and approached Lia, who was sullen.
Lia, can we make one more egg roll?
One more ti?
Lia asked back with a look of no confidence.
"Yes, try making it again."
"But it wont change, it's a waste of ingredients."
"That's okay. I'm sure you'll succeed this ti. And this ti, I'll definitely eat it all."
"SeSenior? Will you be okay?"
"Hey, are you planning on destroying your stomach?"
Alfred and Kaneff responded skeptically.
I ignored the response of those two and waited for Lia's answer.
After continuing to hesitate, she plucked up the courage once again and opened her mouth.
"Umm, I'll do it.Ill do it one more ti."
This ti, the preparation process was nothing special.
Prepare the egg mixture, oil the pan, and adjust to moderate heat.
When it was ti to pour the egg mixture, I made a suggestion to her.
"Excuse , Lia, if you don't mind, can I hold your one hand while you cook?"
"What? Suddenly?"
"Yes, I heard it from Boss. Arent you having a hard ti controlling? So I was wondering if I could help you."
Lia panicked at the unexpected suggestion.
After a while, Lia, who cald down, hesitated to hold out her left hand.
And she nodded shyly, dyed red from her face to the bottom of her neck.
I was the one who brought this up, but it's a lot more embarrassing than I thought
I thought she'd be more embarrassed if I was embarrassed. So, I cald myself
Lia held out her left hand carefully, keeping her expression as if she had been coaxed.
I almost destroyed my expression when I felt her soft hand.
Focus, focus!
I rembered the mory of suppressing Lia, who was going wild during the picnic.
Perhaps because I was holding her hand, I could feel the rough energy flowing through her body better.
"Lia, I'll try to control it as much as I can. So, try doing what we did earlier."
"Okay!"
The cooking process was a little uncomfortable because she was holding hands with , but Lia's right hand cooked egg rolls without many mistakes.
I sneakily watched the cooking process and controlled her energy not to affect the cooking.
After a while, a golden well-made egg roll was completed.
Not only the appearance but also the sll seed no different from ordinary egg rolls.
Carefully she transferred the egg rolls to a plate and took them to Kaneff and Alfred.
The two looked at the egg rolls with nervous expressions.
"I think it's okay on the outside. It doesnt sll strange.
"You never know until you try it"
I picked up a piece of egg roll before the two hesitant people.
I threw it into my mouth without much thought.
Lia, who made it herself, Kaneff, and Alfred's eyes were fixed on my face.
I chewed on the piece of egg roll and swallowed it.
"delicious."
"Really? You're not lying, are you?"
Lia asked with a disbelieving look.
"No. It's really delicious."
"Is it really good?"
"I don't think Senior is lying?"
The two carefully picked up the egg roll with suspicious looks.
And soon the suspicion that had remained on their face disappeared.
"Oh? It's really good."
"Um! It's totally different from before, Lia"
Kaneff and Alfred responded positively, and Lia's face began to bloom with a smile.
"PapaPapa!"
Speranza and Andras, who had been upstairs for a while, returned.
As soon as Speranza ca, she slled the egg roll and ran.
"Egg rolls egg rolls! I want to eat egg rolls!"
Lia looked at with a slightly worried look on her face.
I gave her a nod and encouraged her.
"Speranza, this is an egg roll that I made. Would you like to try it?"
Lia placed the egg roll on a plate and brought it to Speranza.
As it is one of Speranza's favorite foods, she took the egg rolls into her mouth without any thought.
All the farm mbers watched the fox girl's reaction with bated breath.
MUNCH MUNCH.
Speranza's face showed a bright smile.
"It's super delicious, Sister Lia"
Really?
Yes, make more, Sister Lia!
Finally, when Speranza recognized the taste, Lia was moved to tears.
Sihyeon, I finally did it!
Congratulations. Lia.
Lia, unable to control her overwhelming emotions, jumped into my arms.
She hugged so hard that I felt a little stuffy and a pleasant scent lingered at the tip of my nose.
I was embarrassed by her sudden action, but I hugged her gently until she cald down.
Although the eyes of other farm families were a little stinging.
"Papa, I want to hug you too!"
Jealous Speranza ca between us.
For a while, I had to be held tightly to appease the two.
A small stone was placed in the palm of my hand.
I kept staring at the stone without saying a word.
After a while.
WHIRL WHIRL!
CRUSH!
There was a vibration sound around the stone for a while, and as if it couldn't withstand the external force the stone quickly broke.
Haaaaaaaa
There were already small pieces of stone scattered around the floor.
"Tsk! I can't believe you still can't control your strength. Should I call this talentless or should I call it the epito of talentless"
Kaneff, who was watching from the side, shook his head.
"But I think you're getting better little by little. If you get used to it a little more, you'll be fine in no ti."
A weak smile ford on my face at Andras' consolation.
I have been learning reinforcent magic from Kaneff since the day I first learned reinforcent magic and fainted.
I heard it's obviously very easy compared to other magic, but I still haven't crossed the stage of moving the mana.
Since Reinforcent magic itself is the first stage of magic, it was ambiguous to describe what Im doing as a stage
I lay on the ground while screaming in frustration.
"Argh! I can't do it anymore. I'm so focused that my head feels like it's going to break."
"Sihyeon. Would you like so cold water?"
Lying on the ground, I took a bottle of water from Andras and took it to my mouth.
Thanks to the cold water, I felt like my head was clearing up a little.
Kaneff looked down at lying down and said,
"Don't be lazy in training without . Practice at least 30 minutes a day with concentration."
"Huh? I thought you said never to train when you weren't there."
"Didn't I tell you? I won't be on the farm in a few days. There is soplace I need to go.
"What?"
I jumped up from my seat in surprise.
"Boss is leaving the farm?"
"Why are you so surprised? I'm not stuck here as a punishnt, and I can go out if I want."
Kaneff said as if it was nothing.
I thought of sothing and looked sorry for him.
"Oh that's what happened?"
"What? What's that look?"
"You wrote your report so insincerelyIn the end, it seems that the Demon Lord has made a decision? Looking at your usual working attitude, I guess, you lasted for a long ti.
"What are you talking about?"
"What? Didn't you get fired from the farm manager's position?"
"Who dares to fire ?!!"
Kaneff roared angrily.
Andras, who was watching from the side, couldn't hold back his laughter.
"I thought you were finally kicked out because you were usually so sloppy."
"NEVER! It's never going to happen. And even if I got kicked out of the Demon Lord castle, I'd just keep ssing around here."
"Wow that's a scary situation in its own way."
I slumped to the ground with a slightly depressed expression on my face.
"Then where are you going? You usually don't like to go out."
"He's away from the farm for a while because of the family he belongs to."
"Oh.The famous blacksmith family?"
"That's right. You rembered what I told you last ti."
Kaneff scratched his head with a look of great annoyance.
"I don't want to go, but I have to take care of my territory once in a while."
"Wow Are you the lord of a territory?"
"It's not my territory. I'm only in charge of it for a while."
How long will you be away?
It'll take about two weeks.
"Is it two weeks?"
I was more surprised at the long absence of Kaneff than I thought.
He didn't usually play an important role in farm activities.
Still, it felt a little strange to hear that Kaneff, who I always thought was guarding the farm, was leaving.
I felt a little anxious and lonelyand I don't know if he read my mind, but Kanep burst out laughing.
"You don't have to be so anxious. I'll be back after finishing my work as soon as possible. There's no place like this farm to fool around without doing anything."
"No, well, I'm not anxious"
I gave an awkward excuse in an embarrassed mood.
Kaneff, who was smiling, continued with a serious look.
"Without , you're in charge of the farm. If anything happens, take care of it."
"? There is Andras and Lia"
"They're not tied to the farm. And you know the farm best, so who can bla you? Don't worry too much. It won't be a problem if you just do what you've been doing.
Kaneff patted heavily on the shoulder.
"Then please."
"Okay. Until the boss cos back. I'll keep our Demon farm safe."
Andras next to talked to as if he was trying to ease my burden.
"I'll help you as much as I can, so you don't have to worry too much."
"Thank you, Andras. It's only two weeks I guess nothing would happen?"
I regretted the words that I uttered that day. I never thought that a storm that would shake the happiness of the farm was approaching.
