Chapter 5: Selling the fruits
Coco spent the next seven days planting and taking care of her fruits. Lulu seem to notice her plan of using Lala because s he received another scroll saying that she needs to do everything by hand so she ended up eating the fruits, but spit out the seeds since she has no other way of getting seeds.
Lulu gave her another scroll explaining what she was doing wasn't illegal nor an error in their system which gave her enough confidence to continue her process.
Lala also made her worry. The garden fairy came back crying and terrified out of her wings, saying that a human saw her. She didn't let her fly away under ten metres from her since then. So far, it's going well for her— she found out that she can just punch a hole in the ground because she's very strong.
The fairy mentioned something about the population in her new world of both genders being in declined, but since they're both clueless, they weren't sure if it was true or a scam. She can't have herself living in the end of the world, right?
"Phew! I'll just harvest these, then we can go to the village and earn our first money!" She was excited to finally finish her first main quest. The reward is promising and the skills she can unlock sounds cool too. It's what drove her to work day and night on her field, just to have her crops grow healthy and nutritious.
It only took her seven days to grow her fruits. It was quite confusing because how could a tree grow that fast in a span of seven days? Lala also has no clue regarding the matter so they didn't pry any further. Coco's just happy that it wouldn't take her half a year to finish her first quest.
She started harvesting the oranges. She grabbed the tree trunk of the orange tree and shook the tree roughly. Lala sprinkled some pixie dust on the fruit so they wouldn't fall on the ground once Coco started to shake the tree. Instead, they'll stay floating in the air.
"Nice! Good job, Lala!" The fairy also grew sucker for praises so she'll do anything to hear Coco say something good about her.
Coco took the oranges and rubbed off the pixie dust to her tattered, dirty, and soiled clothes. She doesn't care if she ends up dirtying the peels. As long as she can sell them to the vendors then what's the problem?
