"Alright. Now I'm going to try this strange fruit," Rasie said.
She took one of the crystal fruits and bit into it. The hard skin cracked with a loud snap.
Rasie's pupils dilated instantly. She went silent. Her shoulders trembled slightly.
A cool liquid flooded her mouth. It tasted intensely sweet, followed by a surprising tang of sourness. The sensation flowed down her throat, delivering a refreshing feeling that spread throughout her body.
Zaefal leaned forward slightly. "Rasie? Are you okay?"
Rasie snapped out of her daze. She coughed lightly. "Ahem."
Her face turned serious. She stared at the fruit in her hand with a furrowed brow.
"This fruit is dangerous. It tastes terrible. You guys shouldn't eat it," Rasie said. Her hand slowly moved, trying to take Fyar's fruit which was lying on a root.
"D-dangerous? Are you sure, Rasie?" Illya covered her mouth with her hand, her eyes wide.
Slap.
Fyar swatted Rasie's hand away just as it was about to touch his fruit.
