Chapter 97 The Miraculous Potatoes
The size, shape, color, and even the faint, unique fragrance were exactly the same!

At that moment, she finally let out a long breath of relief. The tension that had been tightening her ne for days suddenly loosened, leaving her almost drained.
Just then, a faint, hoarse voice, so weak it was almost impossible to recognize, reached her ears in bro fragments.
‘E–Erin…
Erin’s entire body jolted as if an electric current had run through her!
She shot to her feet and rushed to Tyson’s bedside.
It was real!
The
eyes that had been closed for three years were now slightly open. His gaze was still unfocused and confused, but it clearly reflected her face! His lips trembled as he struggled to say those two syllables a
‘E–Erin…”
“Tyson!” Tears burst from Erin again, but this time they were tears of overwhelming joy!
She leaned over Tyson, tightly gripping his thin hand as she cried loudly, as if trying to release all the fe pain, and hardship she had endured over the past three years.
Tyson slowly lifted his other hand, the one that could still move slightly. With extreme effort, he gently stroked his sister’s hair again and again. His voice was weak, but the guilt and concern in it were clear. “S Sorry… Erin… These years… you’ve worked… so hard…”
“It alright, Tyson. It wasn’t hard!” Erin shook her head fiercely and lifted her tear–streaked face. “As long a you’re alive, as long as you can wake up, no matter how hard it was for me, it doesn’t count as suffering!” Once her emotions calmed a little, Erin eagerly began sharing the incredible turn of events with Tyson.
She picked up a potato that looked dusty and gray on the outside but bright golden inside. With excitement, she explained how it had slowly repaired Tyson’s damaged Mental Power, pulling him back from the brink of collapse until he finally woke up today.
As Tyson listened to his sister, a look of deep shock appeared on his pale face.
He knew better than Erin how terrifying and irreversible mental power damage was.
Ever since Mental Power had been discovered and put in use, the Kingdom had poured huge amounts of resources into researching ways to repair it, yet progress had always been extremely limited.
He had been unconscious for three years, and somehow a miracle had appeared.
Erin then mentioned the mysterious package that arrived today and the sender named “Humus.” “Tyson, do you know someone named Humus Reagen?”

‘Humus… Reagen? Tyson’s expression shifted slightly as he searched his memory. “He was one of Da old army mates. Back when Dad was still alive, he used to help our family a lot. Later when I became mercenary, I thought I could support the family myself, so I politely turned down his help, and we stopped contacting each other…”
Do you have Humus’s contact information?” Erin asked eagerly. “I want to ask him where he bought potatoes! If possible, I’d like to ask him to buy some for us!”
Tyson looked at the hope shining once again in Erin’s eyes, and his heart surged with emotion.
Now that there was a way for him to recover, he would never give up!
Any favors they owed now could be repaid many times over once he regained his strength.
With some effort, he operated his old light computer and found the nearly forgotten number buried
in a hidden corner of his contact list.
The call connected, and Humus’s voice came through. It sounded aged but still strong.
When the old man learned that his former army mates Dave Madison had passed away ten years ago, that his son Tyson had been unconscious for years because of severe Mental Power damage, his voice immediately changed with alarm. He sounded ready to rush over to see them right away.
It took Tyson some effort to calm the emotional Humus and explain that his condition was stable now: slowly improving, so there was no need for him to worry.
Then he asked the question that had been hovering over his mind–the source of the potatoes.
When Humus heard that they had once managed to buy the same kind of potatoes at the recycling mar of the Ottes garbage processing plant, he kept marveling at their luck and the strange twists of fate.
After that, he told Tyson and Erin everything he knew about “Tycoon Boss” and the miraculous potatoes.
That mysterious boss came from the harshest environment of all, Garbage Planet A001. From time to time she posted pre–sale announcements on Starnet’s “Free Market” platform, then personally set up a sta at Mercury Plaza on Centria Planet to sell them.
After the call ended, the siblings looked at each other and saw the same excitement and urgency in each
other’s eyes.
They immediately logged into Starnet, entered the Free Market platform, and began searching for the account named “Tycoon Boss.”
