Chapter 197: Heiren’s quest [2]
Coco walked towards an unfamiliar store, following behind Quizen and Heiren with her gaze flickering over the windows, her eyes glued to the display of spices and seasonings.
The store was small but well stocked, the display racks filled with a variety of spices and seasonings, some familiar and some exotic.
Coco slowed her pace until she stopped, her gaze lingered on the display, her eyes scanning over the colorful spices and seasonings— blinking in wonder what could be the name of everything single spices and seasonings.
She could see some familiar spices such as bags of dried chili peppers, cumin, and turmeric, but that’s about it.
The store’s mixed scents of spices harassed her sense of smell, and she could detect the smells of cinnamon and ginger mixing with the scent of other familiar spices that she often smell back in her world.
Coco walked forward before she passed for a moment once more, drawn in by the vibrant colors of the seasonings on display.
Some of the spices were piled high and arranged in neat jars and bottles, the different colors and textures creating a rainbow of flavors, each one blending together in an intoxicating blend.
Coco silently browsed the display, her fingers tracing lightly over the jars, the tips of her fingers pulling away once she was satisfied.
"Are you interested in cooking?"
Coco’s attention snapped away from the display to look at the person who spoke to her.
"No, not really." Coco answered, forcing a smile as she walked past Quizen to get to the brown haired mediator who was standing by the counter.
