Chương 26: Chapter 26: Sofia Torres
The next patient in her plan was the young eight-year-old girl named Sofia Torres. She was one of the first few victims when the fight started, and a mutant accidentally blasted a building. Therefore, she was caught under debris when the building collapsed during the explosion, suffering multiple fractures to her arms and legs.
Her right arm had been crushed, and the doctors had amputated it to prevent further complications. Her condition was stable, but the psychological trauma was severe.
Losing an arm at such a young age and facing death, some people may never recover from such trauma, and it was as Emma thought. She found the little girl lying motionless on the bed, her eyes half-closed, and her body wrapped in casts.
Such a picture was enough to make most people shed tears, and some wouldn't even be able to look at it, especially Emma, who had more empathy towards children. Only through Tsunade's experience, where she had seen crueller things like children going to war, did she manage to have the courage.
Emma began by focusing on the fractures in Sofia's leg and remaining arm, speeding up the healing process to allow the bones to knit together properly. The amputation was another matter entirely; there was no way to regrow the limb, but Emma could ensure that the stump would heal cleanly, without complications.
She also sent some chakra to the little girl's mind to calm her restless and chaotic spirit. This kind of trauma isn't something that can be healed by chakra; Tsunade herself had suffered trauma. Now, she could only soothe the little girl's mind.
At this time, Emma was no longer paying attention to Phil Coulson and the other two people beside her, nor the system's prompt. Right now, she had been influenced by Tsunade's memory and was in full concentration.
After healing those two people, Emma repeated the same process with the other patients over and over again until she finally came to the seventh and last patient.
At this time, although she had plenty of chakra, Emma was more or less a little exhausted in her spirit. Healing required perfect control over chakra, and the healer must also be perfectly concentrated.
Mark had been caught in the explosion, suffering third-degree burns on over 40% of his body. His face, arms, and chest had been the worst affected, and the doctors had performed emergency skin grafts to prevent infection. Despite their best efforts, Mark's body was rejecting some of the grafts, and he was in critical condition.
Beside him, the acrid smell of burnt flesh filled the air. Mark was unconscious, his body wrapped in bandages and wires. Machines beeped steadily around him, monitoring his heart rate and vitals.
Emma knelt beside the bed, placing her hands gently over Mark's chest. Burns were tricky; they destroyed not only the outer layers of skin but the deeper tissues, often leading to long-term damage. Fortunately, Emma's medical ninjutsu allowed her to heal tissue at a cellular level.
Closing her eyes, she directed her chakra through his charred skin, focusing on regenerating the destroyed layers and promoting cellular repair. It was slow work, and even though it was Emma, it took her almost ten minutes to make sure that his body would at least accept the grafts.
Emma, who had finished healing them, didn't feel much except a little strain in her spirit. She had enough chakra, excellent recovery capacity, and enough resilience, truly worthy of the body of Hashirama's daughter.
Only at this time did she have the chance to remark on the expressions of the three people. She couldn't help but chuckle because they looked so comically shocked, but a little cute.
They were just standing in one place as if frozen, looking at the patients she had healed.
"Ahem-hmm," Emma coughed a little to wake them from their daze. In fact, it's not that they hadn't seen superpowered people, especially Coulson, but even among powers, some simply left people speechless.
She said, "I think they should be alright, but well, I'll leave things to the professionals. You can give them some tests to see if there's anything wrong."
In fact, she said this just to make the atmosphere less boring. She had confidence in her ability, and the different instruments beeping weren't for show. At least the heartbeat and different health indicators showed they were stable and not in any immediate danger.
Dr. Hill still did his basic work and checked over them. Basically, he didn't find anything wrong except the need for some vitamins and energy, then he remembered Emma saying they needed to eat.
Unfortunately, they weren't awake and couldn't eat, but it's not a big deal. They just needed to be given some injections to replenish their energy.
Dr. Hill decided to take another look at Emma. Normally, most mutants, even if they were weak, had some side effects when using their powers, let alone such a miraculous ability.
Strangely enough, Emma was just standing there and didn't seem to have any aftereffects after healing such severe injuries in seven people.
Hill felt like that in the next few days, their work would be much easier with Emma around. At the same time, he was more curious about Emma's ability. Could she bring the dead back to life?
He shook his head. It seemed unlikely since she wasn't able to regenerate the lost limb of the young girl, but who knows? Maybe she could do it in the future?
At this time, Coulson walked toward Emma with a serious face, unlike his friendly expression since they'd met. He said, "Although I have read about your ability in the report and have seen many abilities in my line of work, yours is nothing short of a miracle."
"I only have one selfless wish. It's not that you heal everyone, but I just hope you understand the responsibility of your power and not join those who would use it as a source of destruction instead of saving people like you could."
He didn't say this without reason. Emma herself had immense strength, and healing wasn't her only ability, but just one use of her energy. She had now joined some kind of magical society. He was worried about this mysterious organization. What if they brainwashed her?
END OF THE CHAPTER
I have such a headache and didn't expect to be able to write the two chapters today but it seems I'm far resilient than I think or maybe, the power of money is so powerful?
