Right before she was about to return back to the counter, John called out to her.
"Um, were you the ones who invented these chocolate cakes and vanilla sweet?" John asked.
"Hm? Ah, unfortunately not, we just followed the formula handed to the public, you'll find plenty of cake shops and bakeries who sell the same things in the city, although I did wish we were the only ones," She said as she sighed.
"Formula handed to the public? Who created the formula?" John questioned.
"I'm not sure, but I was told it was the king. Ah, and the formula wasn't handed in this kingdom, it just spread around the continent," She replied.
"I-I see, thank you." John thanked her.
She bowed and returned to the counter. Shortly after, a worker brought in 3 plates containing a spoon and their 3 mini cakes.
Without wasting any time, Ariel grabbed on to the spoon and cut off a piece of the vanilla cake with the strawberry on top.
