Chapter 379 Special store opens!
Kong consoled him, "Paimon doesn't have to eat this. I'll go to the street and buy you some Xumi specialties later."
Paimon said in surprise, "Really?! But Harold has already made my share, and it would be rude not to try it... Well... Although it looks really disgusting, it doesn't matter, I will bite the bullet and swallow it!"
Harold: ...
...you...
Fine.
I don't want to say anything anymore.
Harold rolled his eyes silently in his heart.
Sora and Paimon picked up the spoon at the same time, scooped a spoonful of unknown black paste and put it to their mouths.
Sora's face was serious: "Hmm..."
Paimon looked confused: "Hmm..."
Sora pondered, "...Uh."
Paimon: "...Huh."
Sora\Paimon made eye contact for a long time before finally making up his mind to put the paste into his mouth: "Ah."

[The camera keeps switching back and forth between the two people’s faces]
Sora/Paimon (slightly frowning): Swallow
Kong held the spoon, supported his chin with one hand, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Paimon closed his eyes and looked like he was deep in thought.
Sora: "Hmm..."
Paimon: "Hmm..."
Sora stirred the black paste in front of him with a spoon, carefully observing the colorful particles inside.
Paimon: "...I don't know how to describe it."

[1. "...Pour cream cake into preserved egg and lean meat porridge, add milk tea, and then add something else. This is what it would taste like."
2. "...Crush the braised lion's head into pieces, pour it into milk, add coffee, and maybe something else, and this is what it would taste like."
3. "...Crush pizza into pieces, pour it into milk, oatmeal, vegetable juice, and a few other ingredients, and this is what it would taste like."
Paimon suddenly realized: "Oh, that's right! Traveler, now that you mention it, I know where the familiar feeling comes from! Uh... I was wondering why it tastes a bit weird, although it's not bad..."
Harold: "Haha, traveler, you can even taste this. I really admire your taste."
Paimon was shocked: "What?! Is that true?!"
Harold glanced at Paimon and said with a smile, "Of course, eating everything will ensure a balanced diet."

Paimon: ...
The two looked at each other silently for a moment, and Paimon put down the spoon: "I suddenly realized that I'm not really hungry."

Harold: "Just leave your things there. I'll pack them up right away. Traveler, I've just informed Lady Little Lucky Grass of your awakening. She'll be here as soon as she finishes her work."
Sora nodded seriously, but with a hint of worry. He stared at the palm of his right hand and whispered, "...I hope the World Tree will respond to me again."
Harold said comfortingly, "You are definitely the one favored by the World Tree, Traveler. You established a connection with the World Tree the moment you used the Spiritual Fragrance. No one else in Xumi can do that. So, can you return 'that' to me now?"
Sora was proud and relieved by Harold's words one second, but the next second, confusion was written all over his face: "Which one?"
Harold drew several circles clockwise in the air with his finger: "My flowers."

Sora rolled his eyes.
