Chapter 118 The Showdown At Faith Specialist Hospital

August didn't respond. His stride was deliberate and unwavering as he made his way toward the ICU. The nurse, now alarmed, reached for her phone and alerted security."There's an unidentified individual heading for the ICU. He looks suspicious. Send security!"

As August approached the heavy double doors leading to the ICU, a guard intercepted him. "Sir, I need you to stop right there and identify yourself!"

Still, August ignored him, pushing through the doors effortlessly. His helmet's digital view highlighted the way forward, pinpointing the specific operating room he was

"Perfect," he murmured. "Organic, raw reactions. That'll catch people's attention."

August took off the helmet, letting loose his greenish hair which was slightly damp with sweat.

He plugged the helmet into his laptop and began editing the video for a clean upload. Adding just a hint of cinematic flair—a slow-motion effect when the health potion worked its magic and a fade-out at the end—he ensured the footage would make a lasting impression.

Satisfied, he uploaded the video to multiple online forums frequented by players of Enders Light and those curious about supernatural phenomena. The title read:

"What Happens When Enders Light Becomes Reality? Watch a Miracle Unfold."

He leaned back in his chair, exhaling. This wasn't just an ad; it was a statement. The world would start to take notice of what he was building.

Sophia peeked into the room just as August finished uploading the video. "Dinner's ready," she called out cheerfully.

August smiled, pushing his chair back and stretching. "Coming."

The two sat at the table, enjoying a simple but warm meal of grilled chicken and mashed potatoes. Sophia was buzzing with excitement. "So, what crazy stuff were you up to today? You've been so secretive lately."

August chuckled while cutting into his chicken. "Just... working on something big. Let's just say you're gonna see some interesting things soon."

Sophia rolled her eyes playfully. "Mysterious as always." She paused for a moment as her expression turned more serious. "By the way, the school sent a message today. Parent-Teacher Meeting is coming up."

August froze mid-bite. "Parent-Teacher Meeting?"

"Yeah," she said, nodding. "They want you to come. I told them you'd be there."

"Ahem," August coughed lightly while setting his fork down. "When is it?"

"This Friday. Don't worry, I'll remind you." She smirked, adding, "It'll be fun seeing you play the responsible adult role in front of my teachers."

"Hey, I am a responsible adult," August shot back with a grin. "Sometimes."

Sophia laughed. "Sure, Mr. Secret Project Guy. Just don't embarrass me, okay?"

"Embarrass you? Never." August raised his glass in a mock toast. "Here's to responsible adulthood and not mortifying my little sister."

They clinked their glasses and laughter filled the room as the struggles of the day momentarily lifted.
