I Can Only Cultivate In A Game-Chapter 108: Finally Going Viral

Crystals laced the floor as Evelyn's magic twisted into form.

System notifications blinked in front of her eyes:

[ LEVEL UP! Magic Affinity increased: Pyro +1 / Cryo +1 ]

Sweat clung to her brow. One of the house butlers approached quietly, holding a towel and a drink.

Evelyn took the towel, barely acknowledging the man.

As she wiped her face, another screen activated at the corner of the chamber.

"--young Awakened teenager saves children and passengers in a hover minibus accident--"

Victor's face filled the screen.

Evelyn eyes instantly darkened. She crushed the towel in her fist.

"Him again..." she hissed.

The training bots stopped. The room fell still as mana swirled dangerously around her.

The butler took a cautious step back.

Evelyn's voice was ice-cold. "He just keeps showing up..."

Her expression twisted. "We'll see how long your luck lasts, Victor."

Evelyn Lancaster proceeded to storm out of the underground training room with her brows furrowed and her lips twisted into a pout.

Her fists were clenched by her side as she made her way into the massive marble-lined living room of the Lancaster estate, where guards stood like statues along the walls and butlers hovered silently like shadows.

Luxury glittered across every surface, and the scent of rare incense perfumed the air.

Seated at the long dining table made from blackwood, with golden trim and plates that could buy an entire neighborhood, was none other than Mr. Donovan Lancaster—one of the most powerful and influential business moguls in the city.

A man in his late thirties with plantinum blonde hair combed back and his presence like a storm wrapped in velvet. His piercing gray eyes looked up from the crystal glass of aged mana-whiskey in his hand as Evelyn approached.

Clad in his signature three-piece threaded suit that glowed faintly with defense runes, his broad shoulders and muscular build were still visible under the luxurious attire. His aura demanded respect and silence, yet he always had a soft spot for his daughter.

"What's wrong, little flame?" he voiced with a smooth but thunderous tone like silk draped over steel.

Without hesitation, Evelyn walked up to him, sat on his lap like a child again, and leaned her head on his chest with a huff.

"It's that stupid Awakened boy! He was on the news!" she voiced while stomping her foot lightly. "He's the one who ruined my chance at becoming S-ranked during the screening."

Mr. Lancaster narrowed his eyes slightly while stroking her blonde hair. "Victor, was it?"

She nodded aggressively. "Now he's all over the place like some hero. Everyone's talking about him."

Donovan Lancaster paused, then calmly asked, "Do you want me to take care of him?"

Evelyn pout slowly faded into a smile as she looked up. "Not yet. But keep tabs... I'll think of something..."

"Consider it done," Mr. Lancaster replied with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.

Meanwhile, across the city on a different, wilder spectrum of chaos, a shriek of joy echoed through the night sky as a mana-powered train whizzed down the rail line above Blue District. Three figures leapt off the top of it, free-falling like maniacs.

"Selene, you're insane!" one of the girls screamed as they plummeted toward a high-rise rooftop.

"We're gonna die one of these days because of you!" the other yelled while trying to stabilize her descent.

Selene just laughed with reckless delight as her dark purple hair, streaked with faint violet fluttered behind her with lollipop still in her mouth as she twirled mid-air.

"Oh, come on! That was fun!" she cackled as she elegantly rolled onto the rooftop, landing perfectly while the other two stumbled.

"Fun? We could've been pancakes on the street!"

"Would've been worth it!" Selene teased while pulling the lollipop from her lips. Her wild eyes caught something glowing on a large billboard screen in the distance.

Victor's face on the news...

Her jaw dropped. "No. Freaking. Way."

She instantly fished her phone from her coat and tapped on her messages. "I have to message him. Again."

"Girl, he's not gonna respond," one assassin friend groaned.

"He's ghosted you since the first time," the other added.

Selene just giggled and kept typing. "Maybe, but he's famous now. Maybe he needs a crazy stalker girlfriend to balance the fame."

They both facepalmed.

Back in Victor's room, the air was still and quiet. The moonlight poured through the blinds, and his VR helmet resting on his desk was the only sound in the room.

Victor lay on his bed with his arms crossed behind his head, just chilling...

He had planned to log back into Ascendant Realms, especially now that the bloodline had fully awakened, but as he stared at the ceiling, his phone suddenly began to buzz like it was possessed.

He frowned and reached for it... but the moment his laid eyes on the screen, his jaw dropped.

"Huh?"

Notification after notification.

Comments. Subscriptions. Likes. Shares.

He quickly opened his channel and his eyes widened.

The video they had uploaded—the raw footage of him saving the kids and stopping the hover bus—had gone viral. It had over 3.7 million views, and the comment section was a war zone of admiration, disbelief, and theories.

"Who is this guy?!"

"We got ourselves a new teenage hero!"

"He caught that bus like it was a balloon!"

"Marry me."

"Is that even legal strength?!"

Victor rubbed the back of his neck and gave a low whistle. "Guess that awakened influencing plan might actually work out now..."

He saw his subscribers had shot past 100k and were still climbing.

"Wow!" Victor voiced out loudly in shock.

From downstairs, he heard his mom's voice faintly. "Victor, everything okay up there?"

He shouted back, "Yeah, just... the internet is exploding."

His phone buzzed again. This time, a message.

From Selene.

"Saw you on the news, handsome. You looked hot. Wanna hang out? Or fight... in my bedroom? Or maybe both."

Victor stared at the message.

"...She's crazy."

He couldn't stop the small smile that appeared on his face.

He swiped away from her message and decided to go into his comment section.

A slow rush of excitement crept into him as he scanned through them and even replied some.
