Completing the Tasks
The picking of the fruits and completing the task was smoothly done soon after that.
To be fair, I still let them look for the other two fruits. Ogawa found one even before I could finish picking the peaches. Fukuda who was still seething also found himself another fruit tree. Something that had a relatively shorter and sturdier trunk for him to climb on. He disappeared and returned a few minutes later.
As there’s no point making a fuss about it, I let Hino take the fruits and submit them to the professor. After confirming the completion of our task, he got another piece of paper, sending us to our next destination.
For the next hour, we went and finished three more tasks without running into an obstacle. There’s even one where we have to compete with another group. The losing side had to stay there and wait for another group that they could defeat. It’s like a stage where we could be stuck if we’re not good enough.
