The Tale of Hero Alice’s Social Death

as rather solid, just like Lalu mentioned.
Although she couldn't tell how hard it was exactly, judging by the feedback she got through her knuckles, it'd probably be impossible for the average person to bite into it.

Let's see what abilities you have.

Although Alice was tempted to pluck the fruit and see how it disappeared out of thin air, the Seed of Nature was an important treasure for the elves.
After picking up a free Seed of Nature and having the demons threaten the elves, Alice already felt plenty guilty to the elves.
God would probably punish her if she carried out any more injustice against the elves.

…Or maybe not, since God was on her side.

Afterward, Alice reached out and held the watermelon-sized fruit with both hands.
Although she didn't pluck the fruit from the branch, it didn't matter.
So long as it didn't resist and she could hold it with both hands, her right hand would still recognize the fruit as a weapon.

Sure enough, the fruit's weapon information promptly appeared in Alice's mind.

…

[Weapon: Fruit of God]

[Quality: Artifact]

[Effect: Mind +3000, Control +8000, Mana +8000]

[Additional Effect:

God's Appreciation (Passive Skill.
You are a delicacy approved by God.
Your body will become very tasty);

God's Reach (Passive Skill.
You will be transported to the cabinet in God's space the instant you separate from the Tree of Nature's branch);

Natural Cultivation (Passive.
Cultivate a Seed of Nature in your body in a cycle of one thousand years);

Nature's Praise (Active Skill.
Designate up to five targets and heal them back to their best condition within the last year.
Targets who have already received Nature's Praise once cannot receive it a second time.)]

…

With her right hand still in contact with the Fruit of God, Alice face-palmed herself with her left hand.
She had previously wondered why this fruit would vanish as soon as it left its branch and leave behind only its seed.
It turned out that it was simply because the Loli Goddess wanted to eat it.
If that were the case, then everything made sense.
A God indeed had the power to make something vanish without the elves' notice.

Of course, other than being delicious, the Fruit of God also had a rather special ability called “Nature's Praise.” It was an active skill that allowed the user's targets to recover to their best condition within the past year.

Although every person could only receive Nature's Praise once in their life, it was still an incredibly powerful recovery skill.
Judging by the skill's description, one could even help a person with a fatal injury achieve a full recovery.

Unfortunately, despite having lived beside the Tree of Nature for more than ten thousand years, the elves never got the chance to research the Fruit of God's abilities since the Loli Goddess had snatched everything away.
Moreover, God evidently didn't need a recovery skill such as Nature's Praise, so Alice guessed that the Loli Goddess had taken these fruits away solely for the sake of eating them.

God's Appreciation… Does this mean my body has also become tasty now?

Looking at the passive skill named God's Appreciation, Alice hesitated for a moment before she licked her arm.
Then, she discovered that…goddamn she was tasty.

But if this fruit is disappearing simply because God likes it…

After discovering that the fruit's disappearance was God's doing and recalling that she could communicate with God, Alice couldn't help but fall into thought.

There might be some leftover fruits in the Loli Goddess's room?
