I smiled awkwardly as I looked at Yerin approaching.
What's wrong with your expression?
Huh? Well, that's
When I was thinking about what excuse to make.
Speranza, who couldn't stand staying in the car, tried to open the car door.
Papa. I wanna go out.
Ah, wait a minute, Speranza."
"What? Did you bring the children?"
Yerin's expression brightened when she heard Speranza's voice.
She strode up to the back seat where the children were.
"Hi, guys! Sister Yerin is here..uh?"
Yerin shuddered when she found Lia in the back seat with the children.
She didnt expect soone other than the children will be there.
"Oh, hello."
"Yes Hello."
Lia, who t Yerin's gaze, greeted her awkwardly.
Yerin, who received an unexpected greeting, made a confused face for a mont and then whispered as she tapped my arm.
"What, what? Who's that foreigner?"
"I've got a situation, so I brought soone who works with on the farm for help."
"Farm? Um wait! The farm you work at is in the Demon world, isn't it? Then that person?"
The quick-witted Yerin quickly guessed Lia's identity.
There was no excuse, so I nodded slowly.
She looked at and Lia's face alternately with a startled look.
In the modern world, there isnt anyone who doesnt know the existence of Demons and Angels, but not many have seen them directly.
In the first place, there were not many Angels or Demons in the Human world, and most of them went around looking normal unless they were on an official visit.
It was not surprising that even Yerin, who was active as a mber of the Guardians guild was seeing a Demon for the first ti.
"Papaaaa!"
Poooo woooo!
"I want to get out, popi!"
"Uh, okay. I'll open the door now."
At the urging of the frustrated children, I got them off the car first.
Naturally, Lia grabbed my hand and got out of the car.
She looked around with a curious look on her face.
"Is this where Sihyeon lives?"
"Yes. I'm staying with my mother in that building."
"Oh my! The house is huge. In a big building like that, two of you
"Ha! No, it's not just and my mother living there. Many other people live in the apartnt along with us. Yerin here also lives next door."
"Oh! I see. It's a strange house structure."
While I was briefly explaining the house to Lia, the restless children began to urge once again.
"Papa, let's go. I miss grandma."
-Poooooo.
"Let's go, Popi!"
"Okay, let's go, Lia."
"Yes."
It was clear that if we kept doing this outside, we'd only catch people's eyes.
As the children said, I decided to go ho for now.
Yerin seed like she has a lot of things she wants to ask, but I headed to the entrance of the building with everyone, asking with my eyes for her to wait for a little.
"Welco, my cute puppies,"
My mother greeted the children with a bright smile.
Recently, the only ti she smiles this brightly was when the children co to see her.
My mother, who was hugging the children, found Lia, who followed them.
This ti, my mothers face was filled with the pleasure of welcoming the guest.
"Welco, Lia! You must have had a hard ti coming this far away, right?"
"No, thanks to Sihyson, I ca comfortably. He bought delicious ice cream in the middle."
"Ho! That's a relief. Co on in. You can think of it as your own ho."
"Excuse ."
My mother welcod Lia, leading her into the house.
As my mother liked the crowded atmosphere of the house, a smile lingered around her mouth.
Yerins face once again showed surprise at my mother casually welcoming Lia.
"Did your mother also know her?"
"Yes. she has t her a few tis during her visit to the farm."
"Wow, shes amazing. Accepting a Demon without any hesitationI still feel strange."
I nodded in agreent with her.
My mother was definitely more open-minded than an average person.
Unlike children who are already comfortable because they are used to my ho, Lia still seems to be a little restless as if the new environnt was a little uncomfortable.
I talked to her with a warm smile to relieve her tension.
Are you uncomfortable, Lia?"
"No! I'm not. I guess I'm still a little nervous about being in another world."
"Well you should be careful at places where there's a lot of people, but here, you can really relax. If you're uncomfortable with the necklace on the horns, would you like to take it off?"
Really, will you?"
Lia looked at with anxious eyes.
I moved my hand carefully to the place where the horn was.
After a slight stutter, I pulled out two necklaces covering her horns.
Then two large horns appeared.
"Thank you, Sihyeon."
"You're welco. I'll put this aside for you."
The smile on Lias face beca more relaxed.
I also smiled back and picked up the two necklaces.
My mother and the children did not respond much to Lia's horn, but Yerin opened her eyes wide and slapped on the arm.
Hey it's real, its a real Demon.
Of course! What do you an by real Demon, are there any fake Demons? There's no reason for to lie about this."
Yerin gave a sour look to my answer.
"Hey! Aren't you too kind to Lia? You've never told to be comfortable, or been nice to ."
"Of course, you welcod yourself in. You were comfortable in our house even before I told you to."
, did I?
Don't you rember? Sotis you're so comfortable that I would think I ca to the wrong house."
Yerin couldn't say anything more and shut her mouth.
My mother laughed while covering her mouth.
"You haven't had dinner yet, right? I'll get you dinner in a minute. Is there anything you want to eat?"
When asked by my mother, Speranza clung to her and said,
"Grandma. I want to eat chicken."
"Oh, my pretty Speranza, do you want chicken?"
"Un!"
"Shall we order chicken for dinner?"
Speranza smiled and nodded.
My mother doesn't usually like to order delivery food, but it didn't seem to matter at the request of her lovely granddaughter.
"Then shall I order it? I know a good fried chicken place around here."
"Yeah. We have a lot of people today, so order a big one. I'll give you the money."
"Okay. Then I'll order it right away."
Yerin quickly ordered chicken using an app.
Not long after, in front of the door, a warm and savory chicken arrived.
Lia was surprised and asked, looking at the chicken that had just arrived.
"Where does this chicken co from? Did you happen to hire a separate cook?"
I explained with a smile that it was delivery food.
She seed to be greatly shocked by the fact that the restaurant made and delivered food.
We put the chicken that had just arrived on the living room table and unpacked it.
There are many people today, so we decided to gather in the living room and eat together.
Gyuri and Akum ate fresh fruits and vegetables prepared by my mother in advance.
Eat a lot, Lia.
Thank you for the food, Sihyeon.
Lia was a little nervous at first, but the taste of the chicken gradually loosened her expression.
Not long after, she started eating chicken at a terrible speed.
Speranza also sat on my mother's lap and tasted the chicken.
My mother looked at Speranza and Lia, who ate well, with a pleased expression.
Yerin nodded, muttering,
"Demons also like Chicken"
The chicken bucket on the table quickly got emptied.
Thanks to ordering a lot, everyone was able to fill their stomachs to their hearts content.
Akum and Gyuri, who beca drowsy due to satiety, were buried in a soft private cushion and rested, while Speranza dozed in my mother's arms.
anwhile, Yerin began to ask questions in earnest to Lia, who was now less nervous.
Can I call you Lianne?"
"You can call comfortably Lia, Lady Yerin."
"Ugh I feel weird."
Yerin trembled because she felt awkward with Lia's honorifics and her signature polite manner.
Are you working on the farm with Sihyeon?"
"Yes, I'm not doing anything as important as Sihyeon, but I'm doing all the chores on the farm."
"The outfit you're wearing now is a maid dress, right?"
When the talk about her clothes ca up again, Lia asked with a slightly sullen look.
"Is a Maid profession very strange here?"
"Oh, no! It's not weird. It's not often that you get see those kinds of clothes here. And ."
Yerin glanced at and continued.
I was wondering if it was his personal preference.
Yerin, what are you talking about? All of a sudden! Lia is such a hard worker with a sense of duty, stop talking rudely.
"Sorry, sorry! I asked just in case."
She admitted her mistake with an apologetic look.
Will you be in this world for a while?"
Yes, I'm planning on staying for a while.
Where will you be sleeping?
I'll prepare a bed for her at my house."
I answered her question as if it was a normal thing.
Since she was not familiar with this world, I couldn't leave her sowhere else.
Yerin opened her eyes wide when she heard my answer.
"What? There's no separate room here. Don't you even have any consideration for a Lady?"
"Uh-huh. What?"
"You can't do this. Lia will co to my house to sleep."
"What? Well I don't mind sleeping anywhere I don't need a room, so Im fine"
Lia shook her hands and said it was okay, but Yerin held her hand tightly and said strongly.
It's okay. You don't have to feel pressured. There's an empty room in my house, so use it while you're here. I'll get you a blanket and clothes."
My mother, who was listening quietly, also nodded to Yerin's words.
"Si, I think it's better to do as Yerin says. Lia says it's ok, but wouldn't it be better if she had a separate room?"
I was short-sighted.
I brought her ho recklessly with the thought of protecting her from the surroundings, but I didnt think through it.
As Yerin said, I should have prepared a separate room for Lia.
"I'm sorry, Lia. I didn't think properly about this."
"Oh, no. I'm really okay."
"Yerin, I think you're right. I owe you one this ti."
"Haha! Don't worry. I'll take good care of Lia. Lia, pack your bags. I'll show you where to stay."
Yerin quickly took Lias hand and headed to her house.
I was a little nervous looking at the overly excited Yerin, but now I had to leave it to her.
After a while. Yerin knocked on our door again, and when I opened the door, she popped her head in and said,
Sihyeon, Lia has only maid clothes with her. Let's go shopping tomorrow. Get ready to go out to the mall in the morning! You're coming, right?
