558 558. Date Invitation
In the main branch of the Golden Tree, in the reception dignitary room, I sit down and face both Elsa and Ena.
On the table between them is a variety of fruits on the table.
All of them are from Nihonium and have not yet been priced.
They had asked Elsa and the other Golden Trees to do a market survey on it, just as they did with the soda.
'This was the most popular one,'
Elsa held it up and showed it to me, that light red, bell-shaped fruit.
When I asked Sakura about it, she told me that it was called "Lembu" and was a fruit that was very closely related to guava.
It's called Miracle Fruit, and her casual erudition made me roll my tongue.
'Is this the most popular?'
Yes, it's popular for its good texture, freshness, and non-dull finish.
I see.
Also, it was high praise that you had to handle it delicately somehow.
Delicately?
What do you mean?I ask Ena with a look on her face.

'It's like this,'
Ena picked up the Lembu in her hand and dropped it on the table from about ten inches high.
She quickly picks it up and shows it to me.
"Hey, you're hurt and dented already,
Yeah.
The delicacy of this piece of furniture is very popular because it gives it a luxurious feel. It's like a luxury item when you have to treat it like a fragile item.
That's how it works.
I think so.
'It's the new Nifonium, and it was the most popular drop item from the first to the tenth floor. Next up is Miracle Fruit.
Miracle Fruits are so popular.
'Yes. It seems to be especially popular in bars, where people eat it with a good laugh.
Yeah, I kind of get it.
It was easy for me to imagine the scene.
The miracle fruit, the magical fruit that makes you feel sweet no matter how sour it is if you eat it first.
There is no doubt that it is an excellent topic of conversation and a good story.
It is sure to be an excellent topic of conversation and an excellent story to tell.
Other than that, it's good. The recipe Ryota created for mixing green apples with alcohol is also very popular.
Green apple sour. That's good.
One by one, Elsa and the others reported on the ten types of fruit so far.
I was happy to see that they were generally well received.
I'm sure the adventurers with high plant drops are itching to get started. I'm sure they'll be rushing in at once after Lyota-san's investigation is finished.
I see. Hopefully this will make Nihonium feel like it's needed.
I remember her problems and hope they are resolved.
Before I knew it, I've come to really care about the spirits in this world.
I can't think of these spirits as strangers, who have worked hard for hundreds or even thousands of years without gratitude or reward, and who only have occasional contact with humans.
Bump to .......
What?
'That's enough, Elsa, this is Mr Lyota.
...... Maybe so.
Um, .......
Elsa's lips quirk up a bit, and Ena is grinning.
I'm a little worried that I've done something without realizing it.
'Err... ......'
It's about how we're going to pay you for your services, Mr. Ryota.
'What?Yeah, of course I'll thank you. What would you like?
Okay, just one date, a date with a grown-up.
'Is that what you want?Well, then, in Vila Dieche--
"Nibbling.
What?
I get sulked again.
Elsa sulked for a moment, and then, with a breeze, replaced it with a smile.
'That's a lie, I just wanted to embarrass Lyota-san a bit.
Yeah, yeah.
So leave it open for me tonight.
Okay, I'll talk to Emily and the others and we'll come back for you.
Yes, sir.
I'll be waiting for you.
