Chapter 848 An Incredible Item!
-----
There was a great assortment of incredible plants and products! Not only these three, but many more I was quite interested in picking up!
-----
[Wind Wing Apple]
A beautiful green apple whose leaves have the shape of wings. It floats over the sky when falling from its tree when it is ripe. When consumed, it can allow someone to float for an hour, and if consumed constantly, it can enhance the power of wind attribute magic. This is a specially rare fruit often used in warfare, making soldiers incapable of flying be able to fly, granting great strategy power.
-----
[Ore Potato]
A potato that only grows in soil that is infected with ores-rich ground. It absorbs the nutrients of these ores and generates an incredibly hard shell to protect the soft and tasty interior. The shell is considered a highly durable magical ore that doesn't rust and that is good at defending against magic attacks, often known as "poor man's mithril". When consumed, it enhances vitality and stamina and may permanently increase the power and affinity with earth magic. It is often cultivated by dwarves, who discovered the tuber in their continent, but it was stolen by visitors and widespread around all continents.
-----
[Umbra Strawberry]
A pure black strawberry often confused with a poisonous variety. This jet black fruit is incredibly sour and juicy, but has a sweet aftertaste. It is often cultivated by dark elves, as it doesn't require sunlight to grow and even dwarves cultivate it inside of their mountain's caves. It can clear a person's mind and enhance darkness attribute magic power slightly.

Amazing… Each product is top notch magical material too! By consuming them I could even grow stronger, even as a god? System, is it possible?
[It might be possible if you consume large quantities, but the result would be minimal.]
Oh…
[However, as you've proven before, by infusing Divine Power into plants, you can evolve them into Divine Plants. Normal plants without much magical effects aren't that good when evolved. But these products might be good. Especially good as ingredients for your cooking]
You're right! I can just do that, and with Benladra's help, which she seem to be able to leisurely infuse divine power into plants without any problems, we could just fill our place with these and grow them.
"Wooow!" Benladra seemed happy, jumping out of Benladann's arms, and walking into the floor, directly towards the products, she suddenly grabbed one of those apples and bit through it. Suddenly, she began to float. "Hehehe…" She began to giggle adorably, even the elf couldn't get angry at her.
"You're paying for that though." He said.
"Y-Yes…" I sighed.
I quickly decided to make use of my amazing wealth and buy a lot of the elf's products. Some of these things were so delicious looking we began to taste them raw. Our entire group began to snack on the nature of Alfheim. I also bought tons of seeds, and a special branch I found…
-----
[Lesser World Tree Sapling Branch]
A small and old branch that fell of a lesser world tree sapling, a mysterious and mystical tree grown from the small seeds that the world tree disperses through the world everyone million years. Such trees bring life and harmony to the world and stabilize it from corrupting. This small branch seems to be dead, but it might still harbor a bit of this mystical tree's power, and a small hint of its vitality left behind. If you could somehow revive the branch and plant it to grow into a tree, something incredibly might happen.

"Oh? You're interested in this branch? You seem to have amazing insight, my ice giant friend!" Laughed the elf. "This amazing branch fell off the lesser Yggdrasil back home. I had hold and treasured this little branch since I was a child, but now I am giving it to you for a wonderful price of only a hundred thousand gold."
"Sold." I said, throwing a bag with gold coins to him. I couldn't really miss this opportunity at all. Although I could already guess though his cheekiness that he thought this branch was not something as valuable. But I valued it a lot, the system doesn't lie, if it can appraise something and tell me there's a possibility of growing such a powerful tree for myself, then I'll try and do it.
"Eh…? That was fast…" He said with surprise.
"Yep, thanks for everything, what's your name by the way?" I asked.
"Name's Hermes!" Said the elf. "What's your name, good sir?"
"Drake. Thanks for your things, Hermes. I think you've truly brought to me amazing gifts. I'll try to raise these plants in my own farm when I get back home. I am quite excited to see what I can get." I laughed.
"Hahaha. I wish you the best of luck then, sir!" Said the elf.
"Likewise." I said with a wave of my hand, walking away and going to look around the rest of the market with everyone else.

As Drake walked away with an item that would one day bring him many surprises, Hermes, the elf that was selling these products couldn't help but contain his laughter. He had been selling off the most cheapest of products from Alfheim in this other continent's port, and they all sold tens of times their prices. Business couldn't be any better.
"Hahah! I can't believe someone bought that old branch with zero magic power." He sighed, looking back at Drake slowly walking away. "He seriously thinks he can raise these seeds and plants in his farm? This continent's soil lacks the richness and mana of Alfheim, all those plants will easily die… Well, now it is up to him anyways."
"Hermes, are you done scamming people?"
Suddenly, the faint and delicate voice of a young woman with a serious tone resonated behind Hermes, as he looked back at a gorgeous elf girl with long blonde hair and sharp emerald eyes.
"A-Alma! Who told you I was here?!"
"Sigh…"
