Hell Fruit.
Fruit from hell, so bitter it makes your soul tremble.
The dragon Diding was a bit petty. Knowing that she could meet the human summoner who summoned his skeleton soldiers, he even gave her two Hell Fruits to give to "Eileen".
Little did they know, the one who summoned his skeleton soldiers had already tasted the bitterness of the "Hell Fruit".
She now has two Hell Fruits on her body—no, three. The Hell Fruit she took a bite of last night, she didn't dare throw away in front of Distin.
Sophia glanced at the group of people in the garden, her heart pounding as she thought about the mischief she was about to commit.
"No, no, I've received enough benefits from Your Highness. The fruit that Lord Distin gave to Your Highness, Your Highness can just let us take a look."
With his thick eyebrows and large eyes, Dalton was the first to refuse Sophia's offer. The fruit that Lord Distin gave to Princess Sophia was definitely not an ordinary fruit.
Ordinary fruits are fine to eat, but as for fruits that contain certain powers, Princess Sophia should keep them for herself.
He is not greedy.
He was already very content that his daughter, Leila, had become a normal person.
"Dalton is right. Your Highness, we'll just look at the fruit Lord Distin gave you; we won't taste it ourselves."
Aston smiled and agreed; he was also a person who knew how to be content.
If a mercenary group leader doesn't know how to control their greed, they might sometimes cause the entire group to be wiped out.
Grace walked up to Sophia, her eyes full of curiosity. "Your Highness, please take out the fruit that Lord Distin gave you and let us see it."
"No one is allowed to refuse. Everyone here will get a share. Don't worry... This fruit is just an ordinary fruit in Lord Distin's eyes."
To ease their psychological burden, Sophia did not intend to tell them about the fruit's abilities.
She spread her hands out and then quickly brought them together again.
No, we can't take out the Hell Fruit under the blazing sun.
What if the hell fruit rots after being exposed to the sun?
"Come on, follow me to the restaurant."
......
The restaurant on the first floor.
Two streaks of bluish-purple light flashed, and two pure white fruits appeared on the plate on the dining table.
The fruit also emitted a faint white halo.
"The fruit that exudes a holy glow is indeed no ordinary fruit."
Upon seeing the fruit radiating a white glow, Dalton exclaimed, "As expected of the Lord of Thunder, even the fruits he gave to His Highness possess the attribute of light."
Sophia gave Dalton a strange look.
A fruit radiating a holy glow?
This is a Hell Fruit! Before it transformed into a Hell Fruit, it was a Demon Fruit, with eyes and a mouth, capable of spitting out its seed to attack demons...
Once ripe, it falls to the ground and can poison evil spirits and zombies.
Where is it sacred?
Sophia glanced at the Hell Fruit on her plate. Well, if it were her first time seeing a Hell Fruit, she might have had similar thoughts.
Taking the knife from Emily, she cut the two hell fruits into five pieces.
Then he personally handed them to Anna, Emily, Grace, Dalton, and Aston.
She took out the Hell Fruit that she had taken a bite out of last night from her spatial dragon scales and smiled at the five people, saying, "Look, I have a big one, so you don't have to worry about me not having any to eat."
Try it!
Sophia couldn't wait to see the five people's reaction after eating the Hell Fruit.
Dalton, Aston, and Grace looked at the Hell Fruit in their hands, feeling somewhat moved. This prince truly didn't treat the three of them as outsiders.
She received the same treatment as Anna and Emily, who had followed her for many years.
Even if I can't see Lord Distin, it's not bad to serve this prince.
With this thought in mind, Dalton gratefully took a bite of the "holy" hell fruit.
The first bite was so bitter it made his soul tremble, so bitter that he instinctively wanted to spit out the hellish fruit from his mouth.
However, when he saw Aston and Grace preparing to eat, he raised his hand and wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes.
He wasn't moved; he was so heartbroken that he cried.
He had never tasted anything so bitter in his life. Even though he had tried many bitter medicines to cure Leila, the bitterness of those medicines could not compare to the bitterness of this fruit.
"Mr. Dalton, why...why are you crying?"
Emily saw Dalton crying and went up to ask him a question.
"Rushing...feeling...rushed..."
Because it was so bitter, Dalton's pronunciation became unclear.
It turns out she was moved to tears by His Highness.
Emily smiled. "Your Highness is indeed very kind and innocent."
As she spoke, Emily smiled and took a bite of the hell fruit. The moment the fruit entered her mouth, her smile froze on her face.
She slowly turned her head and glanced at Dalton with her misty eyes.
This seemingly honest and kind man... actually lied to her!
What's so touching!
It's clearly bitter!
This grown man was so distressed that he cried!
How infuriating! I actually went to such lengths to trick her into eating this fruit!
At this moment, Grace and Anna also took a bite of the fruit in their hands.
Then... they were struck dumb, their eyes quickly scanning the others present. Seeing that Aston was about to eat, the two of them quickly closed their open mouths again.
Aston, who had already put the fruit to his mouth, felt that Dalton, Anna, Grace, and Emily's reactions were strange...
Is it because the fruit is too delicious?
Click...
Aston took a bite of the fruit in his hand, and his face instantly turned green.
It's so tough!!!
This is so damn painful!!!
Seeing Aston's face turn green, the others present all showed expressions of pain.
Emily, Anna, and Grace opened their mouths to spit out the fruit, but Sophia stopped them.
"Don't spit it out! Eat it; eating this fruit is good for your souls."
Sophia stored the Hell Fruit in her hand into her spatial dragon scales. She didn't want to experience that kind of bitterness that made her soul tremble again.
"If you really can't finish it, you can swallow what's in your mouth and throw away what's in your hands."
Upon hearing Sophia's words, Dalton, who had originally wanted to spit out and throw away the fruit in his hand, showed hesitation, disgust, and pain in his eyes.
I'm hesitant about whether to eat it.
They disliked the fruit because it was too bitter.
eat!
He couldn't buy the fruit that was good for the soul, even with money, without Princess Sophia.
Dalton closed his eyes and threw the remaining fruit in his hand into his mouth.
Aston's face turned even greener at the sight; looking at the fruit in his hand, he felt his very soul tremble...
wrong!
Seeing the fruit in my hand, my soul almost felt so bitter it was about to jump out of my body!
Why would such a bitter fruit come from this?
Princess Sofia... how could you be so mean!
Grace gritted her teeth and finished the fruit in her hand, tears streaming down her face. She staggered over to Sophia, put her arm around Sophia's shoulder, and flicked Sophia's head with her finger. "Uru-gulu is bad..."
She wanted to say, "How could you be so naughty, you little rascal?", but the fruit was so bitter that she couldn't even speak properly...
