Chapter 229 - Day 229: Mutual benefits (III)

"Hmm... That means I have another reason to visit Blossom Town in the future." Blake said that to himself, but it was obvious that Shara would hear him.

"It is true that there is no problem if you want to continue paying in the same way that you have done so far, Blake. It's just that almost every store in the world has this payment method and it's quite versatile." Shara was acting like a connoisseur, and Blake was grateful that she was so trustworthy.

He nodded a couple more times towards Shara's words, the idea of saying goodbye had already appeared in his head since he had his seeds with him, but before that, he gave them a little look with the help of the system simply for safety... Although that itself caused a look of surprise to appear on his face.

'All... They're all level two' Sure enough, just as Blake saw the familiar system screen with seed information, he realized that, in addition to the seeds he already had with him previously, all the seeds he had bought from Shara were level two.

Blake had taken out one of the bags of seeds and then opened it to look at it carefully, there really wasn't anything strange about that, the seed didn't look any different than he remembered, so he was about to ask Shara if she knew the reason for it, but her voice came before Blake's question.

"You amaze me, Blake. You seem to have a real talent for being a farmer." Although Blake didn't quite understand Shara's words, he let her continue with what she wanted to say. "I think you realized that those seeds are a little better than the ones I sold you the first time, right?"

"Yeah, that's exactly what took me by surprise... Why is this happening?" Blake had now understood that Shara could give him an explanation, and he was interested in that information since it could give him an answer to that question that he had had for a long time regarding how to improve the level of his crops.

"Well... It could be said that this is thanks to you." Blake didn't understand why Shara said that. "You see, first you should know that the Diamond store has an economic relationship with almost all the stores in town since Hazel and Karina are in charge of collecting or buying the various products that are produced here, so an important point is that we bought the flowers you recently grew."

Blake nodded as a sign that he hadn't been lost in Shara's tale.

"I think you already know, but the flowers you have been growing are much better than the common ones, both Hazel and Grandpa commented on this when they found out, of course I was also present and listened to the conversation... And for you to understand the following, you'd better come with me." Shara didn't wait for Blake to ask another question and simply started walking until she crossed the door from before that led to the back of the flower shop.

It wasn't too hard for Blake to guess that he should follow her, so he didn't hesitate and walked through the same door only to find what appeared to be a simple warehouse at first sight. There were a large number of boxes and shelves with what were possibly products that were sold in the store, Blake also noticed a greenhouse through the window that was in the room, and he quickly found the figure of Shara and approached as he realized that she was waiting for him at the time.

"This is what I wanted to show you, Blake." Shara's hand was over on a small device of some kind, it was made of metal and not something Blake remembered seeing before. "This little is called a Seed maker, and, in a nutshell… Well, I think you better see for yourself."

After Shara said that, it didn't take long for her to reach into her own dimensional sack and pull out a cherry grass that Blake felt was one of those that he had cultivated. Shara forcefully took the delicate flower and brought it closer to the seed maker to then open a small hatch in it and put the cherry grass inside.

Blake was thinking about why she was doing that, but that answer would be answered after a few minutes. Once Shara put the flower in, it seemed that the seed maker had started to work by magic, a noise came out of the peculiar device at the same time that Blake was able to feel how a large number of runes were accumulating around her, Shara did not have said anything else, so they both waited until the process finished.

Perhaps there would only be silence in the room, but the sound of the seed maker meant that not be the case, Blake already had a small idea of the function of that device, but the final result made everything clear to him.

The machine slowly stopped working to the point that it had finished, Shara had moved closer to it again, then opened a new hatch and took out what was inside, and then returned to Blake as she raised her hands to his address.

The first thing that appeared in front of Blake had been a considerable number of seeds, and before Shara said anything else, he took one of them and helped himself to the system to check if everything was real.

[Cherry grass seed. Level 2.]

Blake only needed that to close his eyes for a moment and analyze everything, his sight quickly went to the seed maker not far from Shara once he opened his eyes again, several ideas were already running through his mind, maybe some of them were kind of selfish, but at that moment, Blake was just thinking about all the possible benefits he could get.

Shara noticed Blake's expression, and she couldn't really blame him, but she knew she had to set the record straight before she didn't know how to apologize to him…
