Chapter 37: knowledge is power

Note: Today, it's exactly one month since I started writing this fanfic. I think I deserve some reviews and hope you will not be stingy with Power Stone because the objective this week is to enter the top 10 in terms of Power Stone; we are already at 23rd place for now. Also, should I create a Discord so you can give me some ideas?

...

Emma scanned the classroom seeing the students and their broken expression after Ororo announced she was a teacher and couldn't help but smile a little, which in turn charmed more students.

Emma then introduced herself: "Hello, everyone, I'm Emma Müller, I have worked in the military for four years and was recruited some time ago after awakening my powers."

"I would be your teacher in Medical knowledge and would also give you practical training in many subjects, I hope you can enjoy and learn things from me."

The class, that has been silent for some time, returned to the discussion; Kitty also murmured to Rogue: "Do you think she's an Omega-level mutant? I mean, she looks like she could crush the entire school with a smile."

Seeing that the latter looking at her weirdly, she whispered: "What, she looks so beautiful and cute."

"Nah, she is an Omega-level mutant for sure.", Rogue replied; the life force she felt from Emma was second only to that of Jean among all the people she knows; it was even stronger than that of Logan.

"Silence," said Ororo, ending the student's murmur; she continued: "Don't act like little kids, or don't you feel embarrassed?"

The students finally returned to their quietness; although Ororo is usually full of smiles, she is the teacher they least wanted to offend because she is literally a Storm.

Ororo was, of course, happy seeing them listening to her; she said: "Ms. Müller may look young, but don't let appearances fool you."

"If you look at it, you could find some information about her. She has been through a lot more than some of you can imagine, and I expect you to show her the same respect you give any of your other teachers."

Emma must admit that even though she was impressed by Ororo's speech, it's not by mistake that she can become the headmistress of this school in some universe.

Emma said: "Don't be so so hard on them, anyway, the class hasn't officially started, plus isn't it normal for them to be curious about their new teacher?"

Ororo nodded; she understood what Emma was doing and played along: "But even so, they are a group of adults and not children."

When Emma was about to open her mouth, she didn't let her and continued: "Okay, don't say more; I will let you do your own class. Don't come to me complaining later."

Emma smiled and shook her head when Ororo left the classroom; she then turned her face to face the students: "You are very lucky to have a teacher who truly cares about you because, in a normal school, some teachers wouldn't care about what you have done as long as you're not bothering them."

Some of the students nodded, understanding what she meant, while the rest didn't really care.

She said: "Anyway, let's dwell on this; today, we will start with a simple lesson about medical knowledge."

"Tell me what you know about basic field medicine. In dangerous situations, when you're out there facing threats, healing can be just as important as combat. Can anyone tell me the first thing you do when you encounter an injured teammate?"

After all, mutants are too dependent on their abilities, and this becomes their weakness sometimes.

As someone who has been very interested in the technological side and likes attracting attention, Kitty obviously raised her hands along with some students.

To be honest, the thirst for knowledge isn't a bad thing, especially in the Marvel world, but more than anything, it's this kind of student she likes, especially with her system.

She designed the latter and Kitty answered: "You check their breathing and pulse, right?"

Emma nodded, smiling slightly. "Correct, but that's not all. Field medicine is about assessing the situation quickly and making decisions under pressure. Not every situation will give you time to deliberate."

This was something that she learned from Tsunade's memory, in the ninja world, especially medical ninja, you don't have time to think but must act by instinct many times

She said with her tone becoming a bit more serious: "In critical moments, hesitation can cost lives. After checking their breathing and pulse, you also need to assess for bleeding or other visible injuries."

"Don't try to play the hero, your priority should always be stabilizing the patient enough to transport them to safety or someone more skilled if necessary."

She then walked towards the blackboard drawing a rough outline of a human body with key areas marked. Next, it's not something that people not interested or who don't have common sense in medicine would understand, she said: "The human body has critical points where blood loss can be catastrophic."

"For example, the femoral artery in the thigh or the carotid artery in the neck. If someone is bleeding heavily from these points, quick action is needed to stop the bleeding. Can anyone tell me what methods you would use to stop it?"

Few people raised their hands this time; this time, Emma chose a girl named Marlene, who replied: "Tie a tourniquet above the wound to cut off blood flow, right?"

"Exactly," Emma responded liking the answer. "A tourniquet is one of the most effective methods in extreme situations, but it's a last resort."

"You must also be mindful of how long it's applied. Too long, and you risk causing permanent damage to the limb. But in a life-or-death situation, it's worth the risk."

Emma never expected the first lesson to be so easy without encountering any problems, and obviously, these mutants have some interest in learning, which makes things easier for her.

"Now," she continued, her voice softening slightly, "sometimes, your mutant abilities can help in almost any situation, even the medical situations, but you should never rely on them entirely. What happens if you're injured or exhausted? Or if your powers fail?"

"Most of you are above the average human in terms of physical ability or memory ability, but unfortunately, you don't have enough knowledge and knowledge is power."

"You should learn how to scientifically make good use of your power, as weak as it seems, it may have a better way that would make you more useful rather than always thinking about fighting, I think you don't understand how serious the mutants situation is nowadays, you are fighting for survival, not domination."
