Chapter 101: The Authenticity of the Kelpa Fruit Story
🕑 Added 2024-07-18 13:58:19 +0000 UTC"They went crazy, and in the end they lost their humanity, they killed each other to survive."
"They killed each other, to eat the flesh of their friends, and drank their friends' blood to quench their thirst."
"In the end, only the ship's captain was left, who survived alone. The captain noticed something strange happening."
"Right above the graves of the ship's crew, a strange plant began to grow, the captain thought maybe there would be a tree with fruit growing this time."
"The captain tried hard to wait for the plant to grow, and become a tree that could bear fruit, but the captain was eventually killed, and did not get to see if there would be fruit growing."
"Years later, a ship landed on an uninhabited island, and then someone found a note belonging to the pirate captain."
"And found that the strange fruit that grew from the tree above the graves of the ship's crew, then the fruit was named Kelpa fruit, named after the pirate captain."
"That's the story, the origin of this fruit, which has become a myth and folklore, circulating in Fort City 049." Haruto said, finishing his drink.
Meanwhile, the four of them were stunned and silent, listening to all the stories told by Haruto.
"So... The tree... The tree is some kind of forbidden or cursed fruit that comes from the pirate crew!" Natsuki asked with a fearful face, looking at the food she had finished.
"No, it's just a folklore story. Well, maybe the story is true, maybe not? Who knows?" Haruto said, not really caring about the true story of the Kelpa fruit.
"How... How terrifying it is when someone is hungry, they... Even resort to cannibalism and commit cannibalism among each other." Lilyana said grimly, looking at the Kelpa fruit with a sad and fearful look.
"But, why is the tree of the Kelpa fruit here?" Patrick asked, looking at the tree that Haruto had climbed before.
"I don't know, either a fool planted this tree here, or that person is very crazy..." Haruto said, shrugging nonchalantly.
...
"Fool? Crazy? You bastard! Son of a b****! How dare you insult me after stealing the fruits that I have been taking care of all this time!"
"Someone, please calm Luna down!" Sophia shouted to the people to stop the beautiful teacher, with an angry face.
"Headmistress, is this story true? I... I didn't expect someone to eat others like the child described, let alone the cruelty and brutality of the pirates?" One female teacher said with a pale face, after hearing all the stories about the origin of the Kelpa fruit, as told by Haruto.
"... I don't know, but humans sometimes do very bad things." Sophia said calmly.
"The story that the child told is true." Luna suddenly stopped making a scene, which immediately made all eyes turn to Luna.
"Only someone who has been to Fort City 049 knows that story, if not, that person must have heard the story from someone who has been there, the story has become a generational tale, and the most famous folklore there."
"The Kelpa fruit has become a unique fruit that can only be found in coastal cities, where there is fine sand and clear weather. The fruit is very difficult to obtain."
