Chapter 270

“I understand what you’re saying, so please raise your head first.”

In a flustered state, I tried to stop Ark’s unreasonable action.

It took a few persuasions for his head to return to its original position.

Although his burdensome action stopped, I was still uncomfortable by his desperate eyes.

I expressed my honest feelings with a confused look on my face.

“I’m very happy that Judge Ark acknowledges me, but the truth is, I don’t think I’m the right person for such a huge thing. Vision World is also something that got created by accident, not because I wanted to.”

Ark praised my ability, calling it [Realm of creation] that no one had reached, but I’m not even sure how it happened.

It was the same when we used Vision World to bring Yakums from the Dragon Demon Village. Rather than my ability being great, the role of the ‘dimensional door device’ that Lilia created was great.

Balance of distorted dimensions? Realm of creation?

Even if I’m someone who always says ‘Yes’ when someone asks for help, this… it’s way above the scope of things I can do.

Ark nodded calmly at my euphemistic refusal.

“I understand how you feel. You might think of this as an Old Angel trying to coerce you into a crappy situation.”

“Oh, no. I don’t think…….”

“Then, let me ask you in a way you understand.”

“……?”

“Should a danger approach this farm, the Demons living here, your family and acquaintances on Earth…”

“……!”

“… Will you just stand still, saying there’s nothing you can do?”

I frowned at Ark’s words, which felt like he was threatening me.

Ark quickly understood my innermost thoughts and added.

“This is not a threat. If the balance of dimensions continues to twist like this, it can really happen to you and the people around you. Isn’t it?”

He turned and looked at Ryan.

Ryan, who took over the baton, replied with a grave look.

“There is a good chance that… that will happen. As Mr. Ark said, if the balance of the dimensions continues to be distorted, there will definitely be damage not only to the farm but also to the Demon World and the Earth.”

“That’s not all. There will be those who will take notice of your abilities and approach you with ill intentions. Like Gastra. Of course, they will target you and those around you.”

Come after me and my family…….

What if people like Gastra come here?

A terrible imagination flashed through my mind.

Fear surged at the thought that everyone around me might get caught up in it.

At that moment, someone tapped on my anxious head.

When I turned my head, Kaneff said with a smile on his face.

“That’s rather good. I’d appreciate it if those guys in hiding come out on their own. I’m pretty much bored lately, if they come it’ll be perfect to kill some time.”

Andras and Alfred also added.

“You don’t have to worry, Sihyeon. They’ll have to pay a heavy price if they dare to lay hands on our farm.”

“That’s right, Senior. Last time, I couldn’t come with you, so I couldn’t help with anything. But next time, I will definitely show you the results of my training.”

-GRIP.

Lia, who was next to me, gently wrapped her hand around mine.

The warmth felt from her hands and her warm smile melted away my anxiety in an instant.

I was supported by the farm members with trustworthy eyes and words.

I was so reassured that I felt stupid when I thought of myself shaking with anxiety.

Ark, who had a serious face, also smiled.

“You really are loved by the Demons here.”

“It’s all too much for me.”

“A good relationship is not created. It’s something that follows, if you are a good person yourself, a good relationship follows you.”

Ark’s words made me feel embarrassed and emotional.

The most precious thing I gained from coming to the Demon World was not the ability of creation or Vision world.

It’s my family.

“Haaaa…”

I took a deep breath and exhaled loudly.

It felt like my mind, which was dizzy with all the complicated thoughts, was slowly getting organized.

The balance of dimensions, the power of creation…….

I thought it was too much for me, but on the other hand, I thought I could get through it somehow if I was with my family.

To be honest, I’m scared.

But…, if it’s to protect the precious things around me, I won’t stand still.

“I don’t know if I can do well, but if it’s necessary to protect everyone…… I’ll do anything.”

When I expressed my determination with a firm expression, a bright smile appeared on Ark’s face.

“That’s enough. That’s the answer I wanted.”

Once I accepted Ark’s request, the atmosphere of the conversation became very soft. Except for one person…….

“So what’s your plan, old man? Don’t tell me you’re just going to lower your head and make him clean you shi*t.”

“Boos! Can you use a less aggressive expression?” It’s a little uncomfortable to keep listening.”

“What’s wrong in calling an old man an old man? What do you want me to call? Should I call him a geezer?”

“Boss, please…….”

“Haha! It’s okay. It’s not exactly wrong.”

Ark burst into a big laugh and passed it as if it wasn’t a big deal.

“You asked about our plan, didn’t you? Hmm… I don’t have any plans for now.”

Ark proudly declared that he had no plans.

Naturally, Kaneff’s face distorted and growled.

“Are you kidding me?”

“Calm down for a second! Calm down. Firstly, the purpose of today’s visit was to meet Sihyeon in person, and the second was to ask him for cooperation. It hasn’t been long since I got to know the details, so I didn’t have time to make any detailed plans.”

“…….”

“And as I said before, I came to meet Sihyeon alone regardless of the will of other Angels. The discussion about Sihyeon is not over yet. The future actions will change depending on the results.”

Ark tried to persuade us by explaining the situation in his own way. At the plausible explanation, Kaneff took a step back.

“Mr. Ark. You said that the discussion about Sihyeon is not over yet. Then, it’s possible for the outcome to be negative, isn’t it?”

Ark nodded at Ryan’s question.

“There’s a possibility.”

“If such a conclusion is reached, wouldn’t today’s meeting be meaningless?”

“It’s not necessarily like that. Even if it’s concluded in a bad way, they won’t proceed with it if I disagree. The position of Judge is quite influential within Heaven, so they can’t completely ignore my opinion.”

Ark added with a playful smile.

“The narrow and inflexible part of the Angels may come in handy at times like this.”

Thanks to the strong backing, it was unlikely that the Angels would come to catch me for the time being.

“I think it will also be concluded by putting it on hold, just like the case with Ms. Dragon demon. I’m sure they’ll be reluctant to jump to conclusions because they still lack a lot of information about Sihyeon.”

“That’s really good news. I was a little worried that the Angels would come forward directly because of the news about the Vision World.”

Ryan sighed quietly and seemed relieved.

“Until the discussion among the Angels comes to an end, I don’t think it’s good to move hastily. There is no need to provoke people who think negatively about Sihyeon.”

“Then what should I do in the meantime?”

“SIHYEON, are you asking me about that?”

“Yes.”

I asked Ark, burning my will.

“You can take care of the farm as usual.”

“What?”

“Oh, come to think of it, I also heard that you’re the Lord of an Estate in this world, right? You must be very busy taking care of not only the farm but also the estate.”

“Ah…that’s true, but…….”

I asked again with a despondent expression at Ark’s dispirited answer.

“Shouldn’t I have to focus more on something…….”

“That’s a good mindset. Then, what are you going to focus on more?”

“Well… Sharpening my skills… something like that….”

“Do you know how to sharpen it?”

“…….”

I don’t think I know.

I still don’t even know how the Vision world came into existence…….

To me, who was in a state of panic, Ark said with a warm smile.

“As I said earlier, the realm of creation is a thing where no one has ever stepped before. No one can teach you, and it’s not something you can understand just because you’re trying to figure it out.”

“Then… What should I do?”

“Focus on your current life for now.”

“Is that enough?”

“You may think all this is a coincidence, but I don’t think it is. You’re being led on this path. If you follow your will as you have done so far, your Destiny will itself take you to where you have to.”

“…….”

Ark’s advice was vague and difficult to understand, something like the words of a Hermit.

On the other hand, it gave an unknown calmness to the heart.

“I think the uninvited guests should leave now. I came here secretly, so if I don’t go back quickly, I’ll be in trouble.”

“How about staying a little longer?”

Ark smacked his lips with an expression of regret at my words.

“I want to, but I really have to go. If I had more time, I would have liked to taste the honey beer that is famous here…….”

“Judge Ark!”

The male Angel looked at the Ark with his burning eyes.

“What’s wrong with a glass of beer? While I’m stuck in the boring heaven because of my post, every day you guys go back and forth to a place full of delicious food…… Honestly, you guys also want to taste it, right?

“We should refrain from acting unrelated to our mission.”

“…….”

Unlike the male Angel who responded according to the set manual, Ashmir hesitated a little and looked around.

Ark, who couldn’t win in the end, rose from his seat shaking his head.

“I’m going to go now. Thank you so much for welcoming us.”

“No, we’re glad to have you. Thank you for the gifts.”

Ark, who was stepping out, whispered in my ear in a low voice so that only I could hear.

“Next time, I’ll come without an interrupter. Can I ask for a nice beer in advance?”

“Sure thing, I’ll be waiting.”

“Whoa, I’m looking forward to it.”

Ark winked one eye with a very satisfied expression.

“Judge Ark?”

“Hmm! Yes, yes. Let’s go.”

Soon, the three Angels left the farm with our send-off.
