Chapter 10: The System

[Congratulations for healing for the first time and activating the Patch & Coach System, Click to read more information.]

Just from the name and the reason for the activation, she knows that the system must have some connection to healing. Unfortunately, although she very much wants to research it, now isn't the time with Fury around.

Fury, who was shocked to see her heal such a severe injury, one that might never heal normally to the point where the injured only needs some rest to recover, came to give it another check.

After all, as the King of Agents, it's normal for him to have some medical knowledge. He confirmed his suspicion because the agent was indeed healed without any lingering issues.

His agent instincts couldn't help but ask, "How did you heal him?"

Emma scratched her head, appearing as if she felt a little guilty. "When that green energy appeared, I just felt like it would help me heal when injured. Seeing him like this, I felt guilty for injuring him, plus my instincts were telling me I could heal him."

Fury nodded at her explanation, though what interested him more was the potential use of this new ability of hers.

Even without considering her physical enhancements and the possible uses of her mysterious energy, just focusing on the healing effect would make her a level 10 protection target, more protected than Tony Stark.

After that, the conversation between Fury and Emma became a little awkward. Fury was trying to subtly pressure her into promising to heal SHIELD agents in some way or another, while Emma was playing along, neither accepting nor refusing, until she started feeling impatient, wanting to check her system.

Fury also noticed her impatience and sighed. "Okay, Ms. Emma, I think today's events might have been a little too much for you. How about you return and get some rest? We can discuss this later."

'Huh, finally! Did you really think I was so easy to take advantage of? Well, I hope not to see you again,' Emma thought. After that, she was escorted out, though Fury didn't follow. She was driven all the way to the apartment she lived in by Agent Quake.

...

Upon returning to her apartment, Emma felt safer inside, even though she didn't doubt SHIELD had installed some cameras.

Although she wanted to take a bath, who knows what kind of pervert might be watching? Especially with the many memories of Jiraiya in her mind, peeking at Tsunade bathing, it was really annoying. No wonder nothing ever happened between them.

Thanks to her use of Tsunade's chakra attributes, she released some mist, making it impossible to see anything before taking her bath.

...

'Now we can start. I hope it's some kind of overpowered system.'

Sitting on her bed with a book in hand as if she were reading, Emma felt more refreshed.

She clicked on the notification that had been hovering since she awakened the system: <Click to read more information>

[The Patch & Coach System has two main functions: Healing and Teaching.]

[Healing Function: Every time the host heals others, the host gains experience points (XP). The more complex or severe the injury or illness, or the more important the person healed, the more XP the host earns. XP points can be used to upgrade anything the host owns, except the system itself.]

[Teaching Function: When the host teaches her knowledge to others, the host earns Teaching Points. The more proficient the student becomes, the more points the host earns. The host will also gain 3x proficiency in everything she teaches. Teaching Points can be used to exchange items from the system store.]

'Huh, it seems I'll have to return to my old job,' she said, though she was completely excited inside.

There was no doubt Tsunade's abilities gave her the strength to protect herself in this world, allowing her to make contributions in big fights, like against Thanos. But what about the future, where Omega mutants roam the earth like stray dogs?

What about a world with Reed Richards and Tony Stark? God knows what kinds of things they would create. Would she still be able to protect herself?

Well, at least now, in this world filled with beings of immense power, she had the tools to defend herself. Now it only depended on how she used them and her abilities.

'Okay, now let's open the gift package.'

...

"Director, there's a situation. The target's heartbeat is increasing, it seems she's very excited."

Fury, who was at the base Emma had just left, heard what the agent monitoring Emma said and couldn't help but smile.

He had been in the base to get firsthand information about the agent Emma healed and to determine if there were any side effects. According to their analysis, there were none.

He had just instructed the agent to inform him of any unusual activity related to Emma and was about to leave for a meeting with the Council when he heard this.

Although it wasn't good, it was for Emma's safety that they had placed all kinds of monitoring devices in her apartment, especially in her room. The device monitoring her heart rate was just one of them.

What really gave him a headache now was the World Security Council. They were simply unreasonable beings. God knows what kind of ridiculous ideas they would come up with.
