'Yes! Finally, I got it! Although it was slightly more expensive than I expected it's alright. '

I finally have [Healberry].

"Sir, Please come this way to get your item." As I was celebrating inside, a man came to my side and said.

Like others, the man was wearing a dark cloak with a full black face mask.

"Okay, Let's go." Saying to that man I began to walk behind him toward the reception room.

First I have to pay 1.5billion C then I will get [Healberry] fruit. But with a VIP Membership card, I would get a 30% discount.

'I can't wait anymore!' I quickened walking peacefully and started to walk side by side with the black cloak man.
