"..." Mashiro was speechless, too stunned at the item inside the gift box Saintess Miko gave.
He sought her guidance just a moment ago, and the item she gave him was actually something he was very familiar with. Although it was brandless, just a clear bottle with a red cap, it was obviously a coke... a bottle of cola from Earth!
It was cold like it had just come out of the refrigerator, and slightly frothy, like a soda that was no longer so fizzy. No matter how much he tried to think that it might be a potion or elixir, his brain screamed that it was just a soft drink.
"Hey, what's up? What are you talking about with the sacred shrine priestess?" Harriet came closer, peeking at the item inside the box. "Is that a coke? Give it to me!"
Realizing it was something she recognized, she immediately grabbed it and leaped backward as if afraid Mashiro would take it back.
"Hey!" Mashiro was displeased, but Harriet had already taken his cola.
