a hopeless case of jokes

"I once saw a man who had made Henna Berry pies mixed with Rukkhashava mushrooms. I asked him if he was the first one to do so, and he replied that he was. Therefore, I told him, 'You must be a very innovative pie-oneer,'" Cyno said with a serious expression.

When the matra all stared at him with incredulous faces, he asked, "Oh, was the joke not clear enough for you? You see, because the man was selling a pie made from a new and interesting combination of ingredients, he must have been the first person to do so, making him a pioneer in the field of baking pies. The humorous part of the story lies in the play of words. The word 'pie' fits into the word 'pioneer', thus creating a pun."
