A week quickly passed and Henry finished the implementation of AI-Voice to Phantma, Henry was not contemplating whether to release it immediately. On the one hand, he wanted to drag out as much profit with the current image and video generation, and on the other hand, he felt releasing it now would increase his earnings.
After contemplation, He decided to release immediately. Although he was getting Money and system points at a decent rate, The system points could potentially increase exponentially and that was what he mostly cared for. He didn't lack money at the moment so he wasn't very concerned about earning much but it would certainly be nice.
After making his decision, he swiftly deployed the updated application. Although it made Phantma unavailable for a few minutes, Henry already expected it and prepared a message for users to try again in a few minutes.
As for testing, Henry didn't need to carry out many tests except checking if it was properly integrated with the web application and desktop app. AI-Voice was an application given by the system so he had confidence that it had no issues.
After completing it, he heaved a sigh of relief. Although he knew what he was doing, it still took him a week to complete and his hands were sore.
Henry also had thoughts of getting a car but since he hardly left the house, he decided to push it forward. Now, Henry felt it was getting close to the time he would need to be leaving home more often. What he planned next was sort of Large scale so he naturally couldn't do it in his apartment.
Also, he wanted to move out of his current location. Not only did he start feeling it was cramped, but he also wanted to indulge himself a little. But with all that said, He felt it would be a huge hassle to find new living arrangements and get a new car. He opened his phone and checked his WhatsApp and his ideas began to surface.
Michael was rich, Surely he dealt with this often. He could just ask Michael if he could take care of the process for him. He wanted to laugh at his shamelessness, he had never helped Michael in any way but received a lot of assistance from Michael. This didn't affect his decision though, when the time came, he would surely assist Michael if it were within his abilities.
He saw Michael was online and decided to act now:
[Henry - Hey, I need your help ]
[Michael - What's up man?]
[Henry - I'm thinking of getting a car but I thought the process was too stressful so I'm here shamelessly asking for your help. I also plan to move so I want to explore options but I'm too lazy. Are you free to help?]
[Michael - Shameless is not enough to describe you, How many people are too lazy to buy a house smh. Fine, What's your budget?]
[Henry - No budget, Just find anything. Money probably won't be an issue]
[Michael - What do you mean 'Probably'? Since money isn't an issue, then you're rich my friend. If you don't mind renting, I have a suggestion]
[Henry - Go on]
[Michael - No need to be impatient. The place where Kevin and I live, although expensive, is very good. The rent costs about $130,000 a month. Since you're so rich]
[Henry - Bro, are you living in heaven? Why is it so expensive?]
[Michael - Although it's not heaven, it's very good. You should check it out whenever you're free. And didn't you say you're rich?]
[Henry - I said no such thing. Anyway, please send me a few pictures. I'll come to check it out if I like it and make a payment]
[Michael - All hail Mr. Henry. You were holding out on me, if I knew you were this rich, I'd help you spend it.]
[Henry - Lmao, Keep dreaming. What about the car?]
[Michael - I'm not sure about cars, Kevin helped with mine. You can ask him]
[Henry - Alright, Thanks bro.]
Although he didn't know about the car. It was already pretty satisfactory that he got a place immediately. He got Kevin's contact after their night in the restaurant so he checked if he was online but unfortunately, he wasn't. Henry would message him later.
A few minutes later, Henry was browsing casually and checking out any updates or news relating to Phantma but there wasn't anything new. At this moment, he got a text from Michael with a bunch of images embedded. He checked it out and saw it was an image of the house.
While checking it, a smile couldn't leave his face. Indeed, he was very impressed with the house. It was way bigger than he ever expected, he initially thought Michael was talking about the mansion where he hosted his birthday party but that didn't hold a candle to this mansion. It could even be called a baby in comparison.
Henry responded to Michael's message and thanked him while asking when he could come check it out. Michael said he could come anytime and it would even be ideal to come today so after getting the address, he left his small apartment.
After arriving at the location, Henry couldn't help but admire how much bigger it was in person. He regained his composure and rang the bell. Shortly after, a speaker close to it responded asking what he wanted. Henry stated his purpose and that he was invited by Michael.
"Name?" the voice asked.
"Henry." He answered.
A few seconds later, The gate started opening which was odd but he quickly figured Michael informed them he was coming. He walked in following the lead of the guard.
After entering, He was very stunned. The living room looked like a hall that could accommodate 100 people. Not only was it big, but it was also very tall. It was more grand than anything he had ever seen before.
While admiring the grand living room, he heard a voice behind him.
