The bright yet calming lights of the hospital greeted Midori as soon as his eyes shot wide open. One look and he immediately recognized one of the places that he hated the most due to how fast it drains someone's money— the hospital. "What happened?! I... Miya... my sister's dead... " Midori muttered to himself while looking at his hands which were connected to IV drips.

As tears streamed down his cheeks, he still remembered the coldness of his sister's body as he held her in her arms. Midori had known the nature of death ever since he was young but seeing it first-hand happen to his youngest sister scarred him for life. He clenched his fists as it ballooned twice its size before he smashed the side of his bed. It wasn't even a strong pound with his fist but it certainly caused a mini-earthquake in the hospital. "Miya... I'm sorry." He kept on muttering while he bawled his heart out.

The mini-earthquake rumbled throughout the hospital, causing mild panic but it was short-lived. Fortunately, it wasn't that strong so there weren't any damages to the building. Of course, there were people who ran straight out of the building— for example, a man in his early twenties who was rolling his grandfather in a wheelchair. He decided to run away and leave his helpless grandfather behind as he escaped the hospital. His mind then reminded him about his grandfather and he immediately retraced his footsteps but by then, there were no earthquakes anymore.

The Nurse, who was about to clock out after a hard day's work, was about to remove her gown when the earthquake occurred and the first thing that came to mind was her most recent patient— Onigashima Midori. If it hadn't been for his superb healing ability, she wouldn't have paid attention to him but upon witnessing the event, she could tell that Midori could be more powerful than her when it comes to healing. That's why Midori was the first one she remembered. After all, she planned on recruiting Midori to her agency as soon as he's out of the hospital.

Putting on her scrubs once again, she rushed through the hallways and up the second floor where Midori was admitted. Unbeknownst to Midori, he was actually admitted to a VIP room and it was the Nurse who paid for all his hospital bills. There he was, worrying about the money and his recently 'diseased' youngest sister when in fact both were nonexistent. He neither had to pay any bills nor worry about his sister's death since she didn't die in the first place.

Upon opening the door, the Nurse saw Midori clenching his fists and crying while tears and snots were all over his face. The otherwise cheery Midori was showing off an expression he never showed anyone. That's why when the Nurse went inside, he immediately wiped his nose and eyes before looking away from the nurse.

"Onigashima Midori, right? Are you feeling all right now?" The Nurse soothingly said. "I'm Nishimura Haruka and I'm assigned to look after you."

Hearing the name, Midori's face quickly whirled around to confirm that the person behind her was the authentic superhero who goes by the alias The Nurse. Of course, he wasn't expecting anything much since every doctor wanted to impersonate The Nurse in the first place.

"Y-y-you're the— " Midori almost bit his tongue in amazement as he saw The Nurse in front of him. It came as a huge shock for him that his jaws dropped and he momentarily forgot about his ordeal.

"Yes, the one and only. Now stay still for a bit." Haruka pursed her lips as she pressed her palms on Midori's head. She knew tha Midori was currently suffering from shock and that's the reason why he couldn't remember that his younger sister is still alive. Furthermore, he couldn't remember that he was actually the one who healed his sister.

"Why am I at the hospital? My sister, Miya? Is she— " Midori stopped short, choking on his tears.

"Yes, she's fine. In fact, you're the one who healed her. I just checked your records and it said that you're enrolled in the United Superheroes Academy, right? It's pretty weird though since it says there that your superpower is a berserk-type one." Haruka muttered. "In any case, stay still. We can talk about these things once you've calmed down a bit."

Midori didn't know what to say. Right now, he's got a lot of questions in his mind and even though he wanted to pester The Nurse and interrogate her, he couldn't do it out of respect for her. If it had been other doctors who are currently in his room right now, he'd have panicked and tried to escape the hospital to see what had happened to everyone in his family and to his youngest sister. But upon seeing The Nurse and upon hearing that his sister is fine, he decided to just take her word for it and await her explanation.

With acceptance came calmness and a few minutes later, Midori had finally calmed down a little bit or so that's how The Nurse put it. His breathing became more relaxed and his eyes closed as he drifted into a half-sleep state. The Nurse smiled at his face, glad that the treatment was working. It won't be a matter of time before he remembers everything that transpired before he blacked out.

"Hahhh~!" Midori suddenly screamed, standing up from his bed. "I remember! I remember!" He repeated with a smile on his face.

A split second later, he was bawling his eyes out once again, not because something bad happened... but because he was so overjoyed that he was able to save his sister. And to top it all off, he finally found what his other superpower was after all these years. Now he doesn't have to wonder if that certain superhero expert was lying to him or not. He definitely wasn't lying.

"Glad you're back. Now, before we talk about everything else, I'll tell you about your sister." Haruka began, pulling out a few papers which were stacked beside the bed. "I'll cut to the chase, Onigashima Midori, I've done a few background checks on you while you were sleeping, and honestly, you're quite an interesting figure. You managed to take care of your whole family at your single-digit age and used your connection to give them jobs. You also managed to enter the United Superheroes Academy and had the reputation of a hard worker where you previously lived."

"And recently, you bought a house for yourself and your family is currently using it as theirs. One look and I noticed that it's an old house so I'm running some repairs on it right now. You also don't have to worry about the whereabouts of your family since they're currently residing at my summer house by Tokyo."

"I also got here a paper— a record of your one and only visit to the hospital and it wasn't even an official visit, just a conversation with a certain superhero expert. I'm assuming you talked to him about your ability since it's a healing ability, right?"

"But one thing struck me as odd, your reputation and the superpower I saw within you were quite different. Based on your data, you have a berserker type of ability. But that's not the case, you have a healing ability, right? Or do you have two abilities at the same time? Which is it?"

For one, Midori didn't know why Haruka ran a background check on him when he didn't do anything wrong. Still, it wouldn't do him any bad if a professionally licensed superhero is interested in him so he just brushed off his worries. Without further ado, he explained everything that happened in his life, how he awakened the berserk-type superpower when he was young and how the superhero expert told him that he had another superpower. Of course, he didn't know it back then but timing of all timings, he managed to awaken it at the last second when his youngest sister was about to die. By now, he could clearly remember that he managed to save his sister but after that, he couldn't recall what happened so he didn't jump to any conclusions yet. Miya may be okay now but if her situation hasn't improved, then she'd still be prone to other sicknesses.

Sicknesses aside, Midori could've sworn that his little sister mentioned something about a poison.

"Nishimura-san— "

"You can call me Haruka, I think we're more than acquainted to be this formal." Haruka softly smiled while speaking in her usual gentle tone.

"Haruka-s-san... by any chance... was my sister poisoned? You don't have to say anything about her well-being right now, I just wanted to know if she were... "

"About that, we're actually not sure. I guess you'd have to ask her about that yourself since... you've actually successfully removed whatever it was that almost killed her and aside from that, you've healed her of all her symptoms. Even her weak constitution was gone. I hate to admit it, Midori, but you may be the most powerful healer to ever exist..."

"... even I, the legendary Nurse, cannot do a even fraction of what you just did."
