Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 676 - A Wide Variety Of Products

Chapter 676 - A Wide Variety Of Products

-----
After having used the spell, the man was left standing there without knowing what happened, I had completely erased these memories that were just a few seconds, and made him think that something weird happened, but he didn't remember what it was, so it was a nice way to make him concentrate back into another thing.
"Ah… Eh? What happened?" He wondered.
"The girl want this one." I said, as I grabbed a little necklace, it had a jewel in the shape of a red heart, it was ideal for the girl. It granted elemental protection and other things, so it was a good one.
"Oh, alright…" He said.
After a bit of thinking, Benladann decided to pick another axe because she wanted to dual hand. Using the Ice Dragon Scale Axe I made for her and this new axe, which was completely dark like onyx metal, and it had a big black jewel in the handle… it was a double blade axe too, although those are pretty unrealistic design wise, you're not even using the other blade most of the time and it is just aesthetic purposes… well, in boring worlds like Earth, but in this fantasy world giants have enough power to send an axe of this size flying around the air like a boomerang, so yeah having double blade stabilizes the axe in the air.
After that, the rest of the party selected some equipment for themselves as well, and then I decided to buy several ingots I wanted, there were of various elements, I felt kind of inspired to craft something for myself this time, perhaps a new weapon or a ring or something, I wanted something special, like Skadi and Uller but without it talking back to me, if possible… Well, I will see what I can come out with. I had even thought about making a golem made out of ores but that would be pretty expensive for the end result being a disappointing golem fellow that will probably be way too slow… unless I make the golem into a sexy robot maid… Now that would be an interesting creation, I am even getting some designs inspirations!
But it would be better to leave these thoughts for later, after we finished this stuff, I paid and ended using around 350 gold coins this time around… The equipment was expensive, more than I thought, Benladann's axe was the most expensive at 70 Gold Coins, god lord, who the heck has this much money when you're an adventurer?! And the ingots were quite expensive too, three of them for 1 gold coin, they were not sold per kilogram because they all weighted the same and he sold them at 35 Silver Coins each.
Anyways, after we got all bought, we continued browsing through the beautiful market filled with many things, we ended buying some meat and vegetables we have never seen before, although they reminded me of earths' vegetables, but were way bigger and weirdly shaped, there was this one purple carrot that had tentacle-like roots below its body that made it look like a weird creature, it seemed to be a subspecies of mandragora, a monster plant that is native of Alfheim which the elves have domesticated and made many variations, they eat it as a tuber and each color has a different flavor, this purple one is very sweet and has medicinal properties.
There was another variants, a yellow one said to have a strong citric flavor and a strong fragrance used for all matter of preparations, although tea made with it was also well known, there was also another variation that was red and was actually spicy, yes, a spicy tuber, and it was very big as well, it is said that they boil it and make a spicy puree with it that they add some other herbs and then serve on top of other preparations. Unlike most fantasy settings in here, elves do eat meat, and also have cattle animals, but they specialize more in cattle shrooms and plant monsters such as these domesticated mandragora that don't even cry anymore after being domesticated by them over generations of breeding.
There were also common fruits such as lemons, a lot of oranges (who would have guessed), grapes, strawberries, and even bananas, yes, bananas! And they all come from either Alfheim or Vanaheim, both of these continents are the two with the most and greatest amount of vegetation, and they got a lot of common fruits there that they export to various other continents, I guess it is pretty nice to know all of this, now it feels like the world seems more connected than how it felt back then.
There were also other weirder things, such as large walking mushrooms that were obviously dead now, they were domesticated by the elves so they didn't grew legs to walk and had very little arms resembling thumbs, they had faces though, but they looked like they were sleepy and could be consumed right away. I don't know but we have yet to eat mushrooms in here, they don't grow in cold temperatures like the snow lands, but we have seen mushrooms in the jungles, and we have picked up some to eat, but these giant mushrooms looked amazing, you could even cut them into big slices and eat them like steaks! Elves are really amazing by creating these giant mushrooms from monsters… I guess each continent got their specialty, although I am pretty sure elves might be pretty good at magic as well.
We ended buying a lot of everything, because I really just wanted to plant them inside of my home's garden and see if they could grow there, Fuyu had a special skill that allowed her to enhance the growth of plants in the garden, and other things like that, so it was pretty convenient to use and we could grow more plants easily, they seem to adapt well if you shower them with life magic commanded by the life and nature magic squadron by Pekora. And like that, we decided to spend the next few hours inside a restaurant to taste some of the local food, and then we moved into an Inn to pass the night there.
