chapter 548
548 – Side Story) Mint Chocolate Incident
-Blind!
At that moment, Sophia’s eyes widen.
As if he had fainted at some point.
There was only one object in her field of vision right now.
“Well, that color is definitely… … ?!”
Sophia’s eyes were focused not on the breeder but on the huge cylindrical basket made of paper. More precisely, the gaze was fixed on the blue-green substance located inside.
“I’m glad you look okay. But do you really think this will bring you back to your senses?”
“How can you not come to your senses? By the way, Mr. Breeder..! What are you holding in your hand right now? Something as cold and soft as a snowflake is full of the taste of mint… … ?”
Sophia keeps muttering questions.
She looks on with an expression of admiration.
It was truly the appearance of a passionate believer in Mint who received the grace and blessings of Mint.
“Ah, I guess you’re curious about this as expected. Actually, it’s not a big deal. “Sophia, it’s your favorite dessert.”
“As expected, it was a mint dessert?! Well, how can that cold lump create a much more intense taste and aroma than warm mint tea… ? I can’t understand it with my common sense… … .”
Sophia’s attention was focused on a dessert she had never seen before.
If anything, as soon as he opened his eyes, he would start by asking about the identity of the bluish-green substance that was fluttering before his eyes rather than seeing how collapsed he was.
“It’s a dessert with that much condensed mint. “Sophia, you don’t feel wrong.”
“Then what are the black pieces stuck in between?”
“You probably know this too, right?”
“If that’s the case, chocolate…” … ?”
“That’s correct. This combination is more familiar than you might think, right? “Here, we call this ‘folk grass.’”
“Commonwealth..? Uh, I heard it tastes somewhat familiar… … .”
Sophia nods and thinks to herself. I was familiar with the combination of mint and chocolate.
“What does mint chocolate ice cream taste like?”
“Ha, mint-flavored ice cream… … ?”
Sophia asks with a blank expression.
Like someone who reads a newspaper, they ask, “What is that?”
Even though she knew about ice cream, it was her first time trying mince-flavored ice cream.
“Oh, I guess you don’t remember the taste because you ate it before you came to your senses? “Then would you like to have another bite?”
“yes… ! Oh, of course! The exhilarating taste and scent of mint immediately brought me back to my confused state of mind. This must be a blessed food… … !”
Her golden eyes, filled with curiosity, begin to sparkle like the rising sun. He asked me to quickly give him the blessing of the common people.
“Phew, wait a moment. “I’ll tell you about it right away.”
Seong Ji-hoon lets out a small laugh and moves the spoon.
Rejuvenate yourself with mint chocolate!
It was indeed a reaction befitting Sophia.
I expected it to work, but
I never thought it would show such a clear reaction… … .
“Haaah, don’t hesitate, can you scoop it up quickly… ? “It’s quite difficult to just look at it like this?”
Sophia could only stare sadly at the small spoon the breeder was holding, whether he was smiling or not. As if asking for the merciful grace of mint to be bestowed on one’s tongue.
ㅡPhew… … !
As the pink spoon passes over the surface of the ice cream, the rich, soft mint chocolate curls and forms a lump like a snowball.
Black chocolate and Oreo cookies were dotted throughout the blue-green surface.
“This should be enough, right? No, did I spread this too much?”
The breeder spreads out a generous amount of grasshoppers. So much so that a small spoon seems colorless. A small spoon replaces the ice cream cone and supports the size of a single king.
“Oh, no-! Please feed me quickly! You can take it all in one bite. So, hurry up and put that big, bright thing in my mouth… … ♡”
Sophia clings to this as if pleading.
She gets up and hangs.
He asked me to please put the whole thing in his mouth instead of taking it out.
“Okay then, try it.”
“Haaa… … ♡”
Sophia opens her mouth in a voice full of excitement.
For some reason, her face was very flushed. As if he was excited just by welcoming such a huge grassroots person.
-Gulp!
Finally, Sophia fills her mouth with a larger mint-colored ice cube than before.
“
━───!!!!”
At the same time, her pupils dilate.
While continuously letting out silent exclamations.
Sophia was expressing her taste with her facial expressions.
The emotion that is difficult to express in words is clearly visible on the face.
‘Ah… ♡ Are you saying this is truly the essence of Mint? An enchanting yet refreshing taste and scent… … .’
It melts as soon as it touches the tongue.
The refreshing taste gently wraps around your tongue.
However, Mincho was not as soft as he was.
-Oh my! Ododog… !
Every time you move your teeth, chocolate particles break apart. At the same time, the sweet taste slightly offsets the strong taste of mint.
The interesting texture was a bonus.
A truly perfect(?) combination of flavors.
Mint and chocolate combine in a magical way to touch Sofia’s taste buds.
‘It’s such an intense taste that it not only wreaks havoc on your tongue but also your mind… ♥ It makes me sad that it will melt away so quickly.’
-Flash! Flash!
Sophia, who had been rolling the mince back and forth in her mouth for a while, savoring its taste, saw the color of her halo change once again. And that too with a dark blue-green light.
‘I expected it to some extent, but I can’t believe they liked it this much. As expected, it was a good idea to buy it.’
Seong Ji-hoon, who was watching Sophia’s reaction, bursts into laughter.
That’s right, as soon as Sophia fell, he went to the ice cream shop himself to wake her up.
‘Everyone looked at me strangely when I asked to fill the entire half-gallon container with only grass… ? Why are you bothering me because there is no delivery to this area? … .’
Seong Ji-hoon shakes his head, recalling the past. Not only the employees but also the store’s customers would look at him in surprise.
“… You are so delicious! Mr. Breeder? “Did you make this for me yourself?!”
“no. It would have been better if I could, but I got it from a nearby ice cream shop. “It’s a dessert that takes quite a bit of time to make yourself.”
“Well, that can’t be…” ? Who would have thought that there would be another craftsman other than Mr. Breeder who could create such fantastic mint desserts… … ?!”
“Hahaha, it’s not that surprising. “It’s a pretty popular snack here.”
“Oh my goodness? A dessert like this is such a popular snack… … . Mr. Breeder? “Is this heaven?”
Sophia praises and worships mint chocolate with a lively face as if she had fainted at some point.
“Mr Breeder? I’m sorry, but please excuse me. I can’t take it anymore… … !”
“What..? Sophia?”
There is a slight difference between a devout believer and a fanatic.
She, a popular activist, turns into a fanatic.
He stretched out his hand to monopolize the common grass in front of him.
ㅡTeoup… !
Sophia quickly takes the spoon.
She rushes into the abyss of the grassroots.
Like a cat in front of Chuur, it loses its self-control and starts eating grass.
“Uh, Mom… … ?”
“brother..? “Is it okay if I don’t stop you?”
“Whoa…” … . This is my first time seeing you like this… … .”
Everyone watching this scene clicked their tongues in amazement.
“Everyone can rest assured. “It’s a really ordinary dessert.”
Only the breeder was smiling with a calm expression.
Anyway, how long has it been like that?
“Hey, haaa-♡ I can’t eat any more… … . The inside is full of grass… … ♥”
ㅡRattle… !
Sophia, who ate almost all the grass by herself to the point where the bottom was exposed, lost her hold on the spoon and fell all over her body.
-Creepy! Creepy!
Was it a dessert that was too stimulating for her, who had been exposed to folk herbs for the first time in a long time? A powerful and dizzying lingering feeling of grasshoppers surrounds her body.
“ This is so ecstatic… … ♥”
ㅡFull!
“So, Sophia-?!”
She collapses again.
It makes the word ordinary seem meaningless.
There was no other reason why Sophia collapsed.
I just couldn’t stand the taste of grasshoppers. However, this time it was not a fainting spell, but a simple fainting.
“You don’t have to worry too much! I just collapsed for a moment… … . “Senior, you’re just fine!”
Derke quickly checks Sophia’s condition and reassures everyone.
“How come? Senior too… … .”
“dad? What on earth is it that caused my mother to collapse again? “I know what mint is!”
“Whoa, Somi? “It’s not good to try to know too deeply.”
Everyone looks at Sophia and shakes their heads.
But that only lasts for a moment.
“Eight..! But I’m so curious-?!”
“Derke is curious too! A mint dessert without the unique smell of mint… ? “Seeing my senior’s reaction, I can’t help but wonder about the taste!”
“What, Somi? Derke… … !?”
The hatchlings held extra spoons in their hands without Seong Ji-hoon having time to stop them.
“How? Then I want to try it too! “If it’s a spicy taste, it’ll be similar to a spicy and tingling taste, right?!”
“ha? Even Leylin?”
ㅡPhew!
The three dragons scoop up the remaining grasshoppers by the spoonful.
Not everyone likes mint, but
Their curiosity was overflowing to no avail.
Not everyone knew about ice cream.
However, the taste and shape of the dessert they were seeing for the first time was enough to stimulate their curiosity.
And more than anything, Sophia’s violent reaction was the catalyst that made them move.
“”
Haaab───!””
The three girls put mincho ice cream in their mouths and swallowed it at the same time.
They won’t be long… … .
“Huhhh-?!?! This just tastes like perfect toothpaste… … ?”
“Howaaa..? “It’s not at all the taste I expected——!?”
“Ugh..?! Oh my… … !!!!”
So everyone screamed one word… … .
ㅡCheolpudeok!
Like Sophia, he falls to the floor helplessly.
“… Ahaha, this happened.”
