"He''s a ssmate of mine. He''s a medical student and he was actually the one who brought this up to me. It''s just that I didn''t feel like I would have the power to do it, and thus thought of asking for your help. You''re going to enter this hospital using his identity," said Faron.


    Wilbur frowned, looking at Faye.


    Faye nodded profusely. "This is a huge deal of great importance. I support it."


    "Alright, then." Wilbur got to his feet. "I''ll have Sheparde over, and he''ll be your bodyguard starting from now."


    Faye smiled warmly.


    Shepard was at the Super Sanctuary level, and it was honestly a bit of a waste for him to be a bodyguard.


    Of course, Wilbur had only done this out of care for Faye, and this warmed her heart greatly.


    Wilbur took out his phone to make a call, and Shepard got here not long after. Wilbur spoke to him briefly, and Shepard nodded before sitting down to stay. Wilbur and Faron left the hospital, driving to an apartment.


    The space was very small, with a single room. The door opened to the sight of a young man around Faron''s age.


    The young man had a tall nose, on top of which sat a pair of ck hipster sses. He radiated a studious charm.


    Faron introduced Wilbur to Shay Ketter, a middle school ssmate of Faron''s.


    The three of them sat down, and Shay fixed Wilbur with a polite but firm stare. "This is the guy you were talking about?" he asked.


    "That''s right. He''s the best man there is for the job," said Faron.


    Shay fell silent.


    "What''s the matter?" asked Faron. "Do you not trust me?"


    "I trust you, of course, but why should I trust him?" Shay asked coldly. "This is a n that could get any of us killed. What about him is supposed to make me believe that he''s got what it takes to take on these unknown dangers?"


    Faron smiled. "Let me put it this way. This friend of mine has otherworldly powers that would make this n a sess at the snap of his fingers."


    "Anyone can just say that," Shay said coldly. "I''ve nned for this for years, sacrificing my career, my future, my reputation, and even my life for this. Do you think you''ll be able to seed just relying on some random friend of yours?"


    Faron frowned. "Dude, aren''t you underestimating me a little?"


    Wilbur cut Faron off with a smile. "I really respect you for taking on challenging the evil in an industry this big at such a young age. You''re a brilliant young man."


    "I''m ready for the worst going into this, even if I have to die. What about you, though? Do you have the courage to sacrifice yourself?" Shay asked coldly.


    Wilbur smiled. "What a coincidence it must be that I just happened to witness the perfect definition of courage and sacrifice just a few days ago. I think I can take on the challenge for sure, and make sure it''s a sess."


    "And how are you supposed to do that? Bullshitting your way to sess?" Shay said mockingly.


    Faron said at once, "Don''t be rude, Shay. This guy''s a hero of mine, and I respect him greatly."


    "I''ll respect him when I think he''s capable enough to take on this n," Shay retorted at once.


    Wilbur smiled. The next second, a shocking change happened on his face. Shay was struck dumb at the sight of it.
