...I was just trying to get rid of the flower to grow fire mushrooms, though?
The two women from the riverside district did not even speak, but it was clear they were moved.
Things had gotten weird...
The ghoul flowers made the white powder to lure their poor victims. At first, people did not know the powder existed, since it was hidden inside the fruit. On top of that, the area around the flowers was extremely dangerous, so no one dared approach the plant's main body.
Ghoul flowers needed organic matter to grow, so they used the fruit on their stems to lure all kinds of wild animals closer. Then monsters, seeing so many defenseless prey gathered together, would naturally come closer to the ghoul flowers as well.
However, some people fearlessly went to the ghoul flowers' main bodies. They dodged the whip-like vines that stretched far from the body to collect the delicious-looking fruit. It was the white powder from that fruit that turned the Auction House upside down.
