Back when I was in the mountains in Venria, I had to do a lot of physical exercises to survive. Resultantly, my arms were much stronger than before.

When I was up on the tree, I looked down and said, “Pass the bag up!”

Ashton handed me an empty bag as he warned, “Be careful, don’t fall!”

“Thanks!” I took the bag from his hands and shifted my position to pick the fruits.

It was not a difficult task, and indeed, the fruits on such trees were big and juicy and would surely taste delicious.

When I had already picked quite a few, the heavy bag became difficult to move around with. I lowered my body and passed the bag over to Ashton.
