Kip followed suit, examining the unusual texture and subtle glow before taking his first bite.

"What... what is this?" Alissa gasped, staring at her hands as if they belonged to someone else.
"I feel incredible," Kip breathed, his young voice carrying awe.
Lola stepped forward with a soft, satisfied smile on her face, clearly enjoying their shocked expressions. "Those are protein bars that provide permanent strength enhancement plus temporary fifty percent improvement. Each one is worth approximately one thousand golden coins."
