I asked Ryan with a puzzled expression.
"Angels? You an the Angels that I know, right? That hard, expressionless, inflexible.
"The ones that think they're the best in the universe."
In the middle, Kaneff interrupted in a gruff voice. I didn't deny it and went on again.
"anyway, is it that Angels?"
"Is that what Sihyeon thinks of the Angels?"
"Well Co on. Why are the Angels suddenly coming to the farm.?
"I don't know the exact reason either. I was contacted urgently . I ca to the farm right away to let you know as soon as possible."
Ryan also answered with a flustered look, probably not knowing the purpose of Angel's visit here. Besides, he was unusually restless.
Angels
In the past, when I didn't know anything about Angels and Demons, Id a little positive image of Angels compared to Demons, but now the image was completely reversed.
Every ti sothing happens, they put their thoughts and rules first, and every ti they do it with a high-handed attitude and a rigid commanding tone.
In my experience, the Angels I have encountered so far have been the worst.
I can't believe such Angels are coming to the farm.
Just thinking about it made my heart feel stuffy.
"Ryan, what should we do now?"
"It's an unscheduled visit, but shouldn't we welco them as a guest first? Get ready to greet the guests normally.
"What do you an by guests, those sons of bi hmmm! Why should we need to treat them as guests?"
An enraged Kaneff tried to swear but quickly swallowed it while looking at Speranza.
"If we act like that, they would once again start preaching to us, saying what the rules were and what the balance was. We shouldnt make them look at us lightly."
"Of course, as Mr. Kaneff said, their actions are not correct. But do we have to make things difficult.?
"Look at you, this is what happens when you get treated like that every ti. This ti, I'm going to teach those guys a lesson."
"Mr. Kaneff, please.
Ryan tried to calm the furious Kaneff with a bewildered look. Seeing the two of them made my head hurt for no reason.
If we couldn't stop the visit of the Angels, we have to at least make minimal preparations for them.
I left the two, who were still arguing, and gave instructions to the rest of the farm mbers.
"I don't think we have much ti left, so I'll tell you briefly. Lia, please prepare tea and snacks to serve the guests as usual."
"Yes, Sihyeon."
"Andras and Lilia, please organize what you are researching in the workshop. You don't have to show the dinsional door device to the Angels."
"All right,"
"Leave it to , Brother Sihyeon."
"Elaine, please go to the strawberry field and Elden village for and inform them. I think todays schedule will be delayed because of the guest."
"I'll do that, Senior."
As if everyone was asking to leave it up to them, they responded to my instructions with confidence.
At last, I spoke to the children.
"You guys shouldn't make a fuss because an important guest will be coming soon."
"Important custor?"
Biip?
Biip?
"I'll explain it to you later. So, for now, play quietly in the room for a while, okay?"
Speranza and Griffins nodded while their eyes continued to sparkle. Upon hearing that an important guest was coming, they seed curious for no reason.
"Cheese, please take care of Speranza and Griffins.
"Ahh Okay nyaa!
Cheese replied with a languid yawn.
I quickly prepared to et the guests.
I took off my comfortable work clothes and changed into neat clothes. The other farm mbers also took out their formal clothes.
Kaneff insisted on wearing a loose outfit that was like pajamas, but after Ryans repeated begging, he changed into an ordinary daily outfit.
"I've only heard about them through books and stories, but I didn't expect to et the Angles in person like this.
Lilia's eyes sparkled with anticipation. It seed like she was looking forward to eting Angels. It was also the first ti for Alfred, but unlike Lilia, he looked a little nervous.
The rest of the mbers who had already t them were full of anxiety and annoyance. I've t Angels a few tis myself, but I still couldn't get rid of the awkward feeling.
"Um."
I raised my wrist and checked my watch. It was close to the scheduled ti for the visit of the Angels. Ryan muttered next to as I lowered my wrist again.
"Theyre coming."
"Where"
I reflexively looked towards the road leading to the farm buildings. But there was no one there. Feeling strange, I turned my head to look at Ryan, but his gaze was directed toward the sky.
I followed him and looked at the sky.
"Wow"
There was a brilliant light high in the sky. The light poured right in front of us. The intense light gradually faded away, and the figures of the three gradually appeared.
It was the usual white uniform worn by the Angels, along with a usual unique expressionless and stiff appearance.
The appearance alone quickly confird that they were Angels.
Of the three Angles, the one that caught my eye first was the female Angel on the right. It was Ashmir, a surveillance officer whom I had already t several tis. When her eyes t mine, she bowed her head slightly and sent a greeting.
On the left was a man with a large height and a muscular body. He was carrying a large knife around his waist, and at first glance, the intensity of emotions in his eyes seed unusual.
The Angel that caught my eye at last was an old man who looked much older than the man and woman on both sides. The well-organized beard and long hair tied back naturally reminded of a hermit figure.
The old man standing in the middle moved first. On both sides, the two stood behind his back and took the form of following him.
CLOMP CLOMP.
The old man walked briskly up to . I swallowed a dry cough and brought up my pre-prepared greeting.
"Nice to et you, Sir. I'm Lim Sihyeon and I'm working on the farm here. I'm also called Cardis in Demon world. I heartily welco your visit to the Demon world."
Good! That was great. I guess!?
I bowed my head and felt proud at the successful welco note. I tried to control my expression as much as I could and raised my head again.
!
"Hmm"
When I greeted him, the old man who was a little away ca close to and kept looking at . Surprised by the old man's sudden action, I stepped back about half a step.
Ignoring my surprised expression, the old man continued to move his body around and examined .
His eyes were as deep and transparent as if they could penetrate my innermost thoughts.
Unable to endure the awkward situation, I opened my mouth.
"Sir"
"Oh, I'm sorry. I must have been excited to et the main character of the rumor in person."
The old man suddenly apologized in surprise. And he patted on the shoulder as if apologetic.
"When you get old like , you're usually out of your mind. Young people wont understand it. Hahaha!"
"Ah."
"Sorry, my introduction was late. I'm Ark, an Angel who works as a Judge. You can call Grandpa Ark comfortably.
.
The old man introduced himself as Ark.
I had a confused look on my face at his words and actions that were hard to consider to be natural. He went on with a warm smile at my response.
"Were you surprised to see all of a sudden?"
"Yes Im a little surprised."
"I originally wanted to contact you in advance and co slowly. However, if I didnt move suddenly, I thought I'd never be able to see you in my life. As you may know, isn't the Angel race a little inflexible to handle when it cos to work huh?
Angel Ark's blunt remark flustered Angels on both sides.
"Sir. Ark!"
"Judge Ark!"
"Was I wrong? Honestly, isn't it true that it's frustrating the way we handle things? If you're curious, you should just et the person and talk to him in person. Whats the point of continuing those boring, useless etings.
"It's not useless, Sir. It's all about following the procedures necessary to follow the set rules."
"That's right, Judge Ark. It's better to refrain from saying that.
The two Angels tried to persuade Angel Ark as politely as possible. But he muttered with a disapproving look.
"Ah! What, now I can't even say what I want to."
The appearance of Ark ca as a fresh shock to . Ive always related Angels to stone-faced, emotionless, rule-abiding bunch, but the old man in front of was thoroughly breaking my prejudice.
Slowly I took a peak at other farm mbers' reactions.
Andras, Lia, and Ryan were also surprised at Ark's words and actions. Only Alfred and Lilia, who t the Angels for the first ti, watched them quietly.
"Your na is You said Lim Sihyeom, right? Can I call you Sihyeon comfortably?
"Yes, Judge Ark."
"Tsk, stop it. I told you to call Grandpa Ark"
Judge Ark smacked his lips with an expression of regret at my polite address.
"Anyway, I'm sorry for the sudden visit. Instead, I prepared so gifts as an apology."
He signaled the two Angels.
The pair stepped back a few steps and reached out, lights gathered around their hands, and they soon began to pick so things from the air.
Gifts began to pile up in front of the two.
"This is"
"I heard you prepare these gifts while visiting other people's houses as a guest. Am I wrong?"
"Oh, no, it's not wrong.
I was speechless when I saw the gift prepared by the Angels.
Detergent, towel, shampoo, and gift set that you often see when you go on a holiday.
And a huge volu of tissue paper.
It felt rather strange because it was such a normal and general gift, and I didn't expect to receive tissue paper and daily supplies from the Angles as gifts..
"Oh! There are detergents, too. We ran out of detergent.
"I think it's shampoo.
"Brother Sihyeon. What's that? Is it food?"
The farm mbers glistened their eyes at the piled-up daily supplies.
"Hahaha! Fortunately, the gifts aren't useless."
"Thank you. You didn't have to prepare such things.
"I prepared this as a form of apology, so don't feel too pressured. Can we go inside now? My body is itching because there are so many things I want to ask.
Oh! I'm sorry. I'll show you inside, please co.
"Thank you."
I quickly led Judge Ark and the Angels who ca along with him to the farm building.
