Reyansh looked around the lobby, nurses were doing their work, few people sat in the sofa placed around lobby. He found an empty sofa in the corner to sit on, before checking the new perk.

’Okay, let’s see this new perk, all 6 perks are one of the reasons I am here, even the camera was brilliant,’ he thought as he looked at the two floating cameras ahead him.

’Yes,’ he mentally commanded.

A new system panel appeared in front of him.

[#Perk 7: As host’s channel grows, he is granted a special Stream Manager to manage his channel.]

[Would you like to summon the Stream Manager?]

"What the..." he stopped himself midway, knowing he was sitting in a hospital lobby.

’Just when I thought I was getting the hang of this system. A special Stream Manager summon?’ his thoughts raced.

He was very much tempted to say yes but looking at his position, he decided against it.

’I was already wondering about growing subscriber number and too many chats but this solves the problem entirely.’

’AAKASHA, huh? Why would such entity give me mind bending perks?’ He wondered.

’I guess, it’s still too early for such answers,’ he controlled his excitement.

’Now, that I am here, I should check out the benefits of channel upgrade too,’ he thought as he mentally commanded, ’Streaming Profile.’

A new system panel manifested in front of him.

’104 subscribers in 4 days, not bad at all, haha...’ he laughed internally, knowing full well hunters take a minimum of 10 days to reach Spark rank even if they have a famous guild behind them, otherwise it could take a month.

’Well, I did kill a guildmaster live, I am sure that helped otherwise it would have taken a day more,’ he thought.

He mentally clicked on Spark(+) to check the benefits of rank up. A system panel opened in response.

’Hmm...all benefits are as expected, especially number 5. This will make the streams more interesting,’ he thought as he read through the benefits.

He closed the panel, taking a deep breath, this was a tiny step in his long-term goal of making himself the strongest.

Postponing the summoning of stream manager when he was alone, he stood up. As he walked back towards the room, he saw the doctor responsible for check up of Vanya pass through.

Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind, he stopped and called, "Excuse me, doctor."

The doctor turned towards Reyansh, she recognized him immediately, "Yes, Vanya’s brother, what can I do for you?"

"Doctor, could I take some of your time? I have to ask something related to my mother’s disease," he requested.

She looked at her watch before responding, "I am off duty now so I have few minutes, you can ask. If it is something within my prerogative, I will answer best to my abilities."

They both sat on the sofa nearby.

"Thank you for your time doctor. My mother has Excess Mana Syndrome, I know there’s no permanent treatment yet."

"But I have read few articles about symptomatic treatments that can help stay patient awake and reduce the adverse effects on the body." Reyansh shared.

The doctor nodded, "Yes, you are right, there are but that’s not my specialty. I only know there are some treatments which temporarily alleviate the patient symptoms."

"Do you have any doctor in your contact or someone you can refer to that could help provide relief for my mother?" he asked.

"Yeah, there is one in this hospital but I would refer you to the best doctor in India and one of the top doctors in world for this disease especially." She replied.

"This may cost you a little but I am suggesting you because you can afford the treatment."

"Her treatment has resulted in many positive results. If you want I can give you the number of her office." She added.

"That’s fantastic, it will be very helpful," Reyansh agreed with a smile on his face.

The doctor gave him the number and wished him the best while Reyansh thanked her as she left.

Holding the paper with number written on it, he thought, ’I hope she could help my mother. Just wait mother, you will be talking to your children soon.’

He dialed the number immediately, the phone rang while Reyansh’s heart pounded with expectations.

"Hello, Dr Neha’s office, how may I help you?" a feminine voice came from other side of the call.

"Yes, I am calling regarding scheduling an appointment of Dr Neha," Reyansh replied.

"Okay, is the patient already diagnosed? If yes, can you mention the ailment of the patient along with personal details of patient and location."

"I am calling from Mumbai, she is my mother, and is diagnosed with Excess Mana Syndrome. Her name is Avni Kaul, 38 years old."

"Okay, Sir, you called at a good time. Dr Neha will be in Mumbai, day after tomorrow. You can book your appointment on that day." She suggested.

"She is available in morning at 8 AM and in evening between 5 to 7 PM. Which time is suitable for you, Sir?" she asked.

"Morning time."

"Okay, sir, I have confirmed your appointment on 22nd April, 8’o clock in the morning. You can pay 1000 Coins in advance and rest of the payment after the treatment."

She told Reyansh the code for payment, he transferred 1000 Coins immediately.

"I have received the advance payment, sir. I will call back on 22nd morning for picking up Dr Neha. Thank you for calling, sir. If you have any questions, you can contact this number 24×7."

"Okay," he ended the call and took a deep breath, exhaling through mouth.

Just as he stood up to go into room, he received a message from Amit, telling he was outside the hospital.

’Half hour passed, huh? Vanya would be pissed,’ he thought as he hurried towards the room, replying Amit to wait for few minutes.

Just as he entered the room, "What kind of cab were you booking, brother?" Vanya’s questioning voice reached his ears.

"The special kind, are we free to go?" he replied as he smiled sheepishly

"I was ready to go ages ago," she stated as she exited the room with Reyansh beside her.

"Did you made a girlfriend, brother?" she questioned as he looked at him.

"Nope, where did that came from?" he replied as he kept walking straight.

"Well, I hope that, if not, its tragic that you harass a cab driver by talking to him for half an hour," Vanya rolled her eyes, but the next she received a head chop.

"That potion worked too well, huh? Your mouth is running without brakes," he taunted as both exited the hospital.

Vanya rubbed her head, trying to play the hurting sister when her landed on the crimson red hover car ahead.

"Wow, that’s a cool car. It is Aether Ride 3.0 with improved mana reactor, comfort and most of all, style," Vanya exclaimed like a child looking at chocolate for first time.

"Do you really like it?" Reyansh asked, his face almost smug.

"Yeah, it’s my favorite and very new on the market. There are less than 100 such cars in Mumbai." She nodded, her eyes still glued to the car.

"Well, then go sit in it," Reyansh stated it like a fact.

Suddenly, Vanya’s head turned towards her brother, looking at him like ghost.

"Are you joking, brother? It’s not a good joke," she spoke, her voice sharp.

Reyansh didn’t say anything and just pointed at the car. Amit came out of the car from driver side and opened the back doors.

"Is this cars really ours?" she questioned, her eyes moving between Amit and car, Amit nodded in response.

"YEAH!" she jumped at hug Reyansh tightly, "Thank you brother, you are the best."

He didn’t say anything, silently enjoying his sister’s happiness.

There was only one thought on his mind, ’If protecting that smile meant killing every Guildmaster in the world...then so be it.’
