After hearing his explanation, I took a brief pause and ventured to ask, "After a century, that peony's surely gone by now, isn't it?"
Surprisingly, he said, "It should still be there."
I was stunned.
He continued, "Well, my old house has turned into a well-known tourist spot, Longriver Park, now. It should be pretty well preserved."
The live broadcast viewers erupted into excitement once again!
Netizen 1: [Oh my god! His house turned into a tourist spot? He's gotta be from some kind of royal lineage, right?]
Netizen 2: [His family left for abroad last century, and his last name's Kim. He's gotta be from a royal family, right?]
Netizen 3: [Jeez! Using porcelain for a flower pot? His family must have some serious clout.]
Amidst the flurry of exclamations from the online community, the voice of Bruce resonated once more.
He asked, "What kind of rune should I pray for in my situation?"
"Don't worry. Your current location might not be suitable for this rune yet," I replied.
"Can my illness be cured?" he asked hopefully.
I smiled, knowing the answer. "It can, but it depends on the choice you make."
"A choice?" he echoed.
"Yes, you need to decide between the flowerpot or your life," I stated calmly.
