62 Why are all the spirit fruits named so badly!? (2/2)
”I want this!”
”…”
”Hello…? I want to buy this!”
Hearing no response from the disciple standing at the counter, Sofie tried calling out to him again.
”Y-yes, it will be 50 mission points.” Returning from his bewildered state, the disciple quickly took out some weird magic tool and handed it to Sofie.
”You have to touch it with your sect badge and transfer 50 mission points like how Yue Wan transferred 50 mission points to us!” Seeing the confused look on Sofie's face, Yang Meng quickly moved in from the side and whispered to her in a low voice so the nearby disciples couldn't hear him.
”Ah!”
Seemingly thinking about something for a moment, Sofie took out her sect badge and held it up against the weird magic tool. Following this, the magic tool let out a weird clicking sound and the disciple standing behind the counter quickly took it back again.
”Thanks for your purchase~” Saying so in a voice not befitting of him, the disciple behind the counter tried his best to give off a business smile.
”!”
Sadly, for the disciple behind the counter, this only resulted in Sofie being scared at the sudden change. Causing her to draw away from the counter at record speed, warily looking at the disciple behind the counter one last time before turning her attention to the spirit fruit in her hands.
”… D-did I do something wrong?”
Not knowing why Sofie suddenly drew away like a frightened animal meeting a predator, the disciple turned around and asked another disciple sorting out spirit fruits behind him.
”That was your own fault… Never do that voice ever again, it doesn't suit you and never will…”
The disciple sorting out spirit fruits looked up at the disciple standing at the counter and shook his head while reprimanding him for his earlier mistake.
The sketchy smile on his big face, coupled with that cutesy speech and manly voice… Anyone would run upon encountering something like that…
…
As the man standing behind the counter felt like breaking into tears at any given moment, Sofie had placed her full attention on the spirit fruit in front of her and had already forgotten the creepy disciple from earlier.
The sweet orange spirit fruit was not orange in colour, but completely yellow with a few red spots on its skin.
Inspecting the spirit fruit with all her might, Sofie could not find out how she was supposed to eat it.
Maybe I should just eat the entire thing?
Thinking this, Sofie closed her eyes and under the shocked gazes of the surrounding disciples, stuffed the entire spirit fruit into her mouth, chewed on it for a bit and swallowed.
Fully satisfied upon tasting the sweet taste of oranges, Sofie let out a satisfied burp before turning towards Yang Meng and smiling. Encouraging him to try one as well.
