"It is a fortune," I said, and I looked at the fruits.
Though, it's a fortune that I couldn't sell. If I could, I would have. People will pay a massive price for them, but doing that will make suspicion and greed rise in their hearts.
Most importantly, they might suspect who I am. So, I couldn't, but it's not set in stone.
If I get the right opportunity, I will sell it.
Taking one last look at those beautiful, powerful fruits, I focused on my body. The strengthening energy is still pouring into me, and my body is swallowing it hungrily.
Even after a few minutes, its hunger didn't dissipate. It is the same.
I looked at the meta-scan and saw my strength rising rapidly. It is helping me whittle away the Grimm's energy into me faster.
It's still in my body. I could have used the strengthening energy to deal with it, but I didn't.
I didn't want to waste a single drop of it on things other than increasing my strength. Especially on the things that I could deal with on my own.
