Chapter 95 (1/2)

「Tak.u.mi, we will take a break there」

「Okay, I understand」

The second day after leaving Bailey. We have been riding the horses since the morning today as well, it’s almost time for the lunch.

The place Wald-sama designated as our resting place was an empty open plain with a large tree growing in the center.

「That’s a big tree, isn’t it~」

「That’s a Majesta tree. Oh my, how rare. It’s bearing fruit」

Majesta tree is considerably thick, large tree with thick green leaves bearing many yellow fruits. Erm――Yeah~ Majesta tree’s fruit season is irregular, so the times the fruit grows seems to be unpredictable.

While looking up at the Majesta tree, I fumbled about the imprinted knowledge and knowledge related to that.

「「Is delish~?」」

「It seems to be tasty」

In fact, Majesta seems to be very delicious. However, it’s a very rare fruit.

Since the fruit grows irregularly then it’s only given that it’s rare, but to happen to pa.s.s by just as the fruit is ripe…… what a terrifying coincidence.

Seeing rare fruit makes me want to try eating it in a mountain of ways, but the bark of Majesta tree is hard and slippery, the whole trunk is covered in branches and b.u.mps, so it would be difficult to collect the fruit which grows at the top.

It might be possible to collect them if we had a long ladder prepared, but Majesta apparently bears fruit just for half a day then it rots and falls. That’s why there’s no opportunity to return to the town as it’s necessary to gather the fruit immediately after seeing it or you will lose the chance to gather them.

Moreover, while the fruit is quick to rot on the tree, it’s a mysterious fruit that is storable for a very long time after it’s harvested.

『Piii~』

「N?　――Oopsy」

When I looked up after hearing Bolt’s cry, Bolt who flew over at the top of the tree poked a branch with a fruit and dropped it down. It was a fruit that was slightly larger than my fist.

「Thank you, Bolt」

『Pii』

Bolt continued and dropped a few more fruits.

「Here, Bolt got it for you」

「「Muu~」」

「N? What’s the matter, Allen, Elena?」

When I handed over the Majesta fruit to Allen and Elena who were greatly interested in it, they were sulking for some reason.

「Allen will get it~」

「Elena will too~」

「Eh? I understand your feelings of wanting to get it, but you can’t reach it, right?」

Allen and Elena said that they want to get it themselves. But, Majesta fruit is at the very top. Bolt was able to get the fruit because of flying.

Because of the unevenness and branches that are in the way of climbing, even Allen and Elena wouldn’t be able to climb this tree.

「「Make us po~n」」

「Po~n?」

「「Un!」」

Po~n, huh…… hey!
