Chapter 12 - Fragrant Fruit | Re:Library

“Mister, what is this?”

Yennis paused in front of the stall, nibbling on the ninth meat skewer he had purchased from a previous stall.

He was pointing at a distinctly colored fruit that was displayed among the other fruits on the stall’s shelves.

Seletina had never seen anything like it before.

The round fruit was about the size of Seletina’s hand. The seven different colors that it was painted in were interlaced like swirls around its surface.

Before speaking, the beard-sporting street vendor, with a towel over his head, scratched his head.

“This thing’s called Pereta. It’s not for eating.”
“You can’t eat it?”
“It’s not that you can’t, but that’s not the point. It emits a very potent smell when you peel it or crush it. Despite its intensity, the smell is quite pleasant, making it a common component in women’s perfumes.”

When Seletina used her tiny nose to smell the fruit, a sweet, potent aroma immediately filled her nostrils.

“What a pleasant aroma.”

As she spoke, Seletina closed her eyes in bliss. The vendor crossed his arms in reply, his cheeks beginning to blush.

“The Pereta’s scent is appreciated by all fine women. With time, Missy, you’ll undoubtedly mature into a lovely woman.”

The vendor said, shyly lifting his thumb. In response, Seletina simply giggled.

“Hmph.”

Yennis exclaimed, grabbing a Pereta fruit and holding it out to the vendor.

“I’ll take one.”
“As I already said, it’s not for eating.”

“My sister has taken a liking to it. I might as well purchase one as a souvenir.”
“Okay then. That’ll be two coppers.”
“Here you go.”

*At this point, he is merely squandering money. He’s already blown a lot… *

Seletina thought. But she didn’t feel all that bitter because she knew her brother was doing it for her.

“Thank you for buying it for me, brother.”
“No big deal. I hope you’ll begin respecting me after this.”
“……”
“Hey!”

Yennis exclaimed, bringing the siblings’ conversation to a close. Meanwhile, the Pereta, which was now in Seletina’s hands, continued to emanate its delightful aroma. In response, Seletina’s cheeks slightly flushed.

I wonder if my reaction to this is a result of the fact that I am a woman now. I appear to be interested in more feminine things now, whereas I was not at all interested in them when I was a man.

Seletina’s body could not help but relish the fragrance of the Pereta, despite Orthus’ mind’s slight resistance.

A quick chill struck Yennis’s back as those thoughts raced through Seletina’s mind.

“Oh, no. Seletina, I’ll leave you for a minute.”
“What happened?”
“I need to pee. I’ll be as quick as possible so just wait in front of that fountain over there, okay? I won’t take long!”

Yennis said and then sped off. His visage soon became lost in the crowd.

He always has the energy to burn, this brother of mine.

Seletina smiled, stuffing the Pereta inside her pocket.

He’s late…

Seletina let out a sigh.

It had been some time since Yennis had gone to the restroom, but he had yet to return.

Is he devouring some stall again, or could it be something else…

Seletina’s heart began to race with worry. She rose from the fountain’s edge.

I should go look for him. It’ll be bad if I don’t find him. If I can’t find him after some looking, I’ll just come back to the fountain plaza. I seriously hope that I’m just overthinking things.

Re-putting her hood on, Seletina hurried to the main street.
