Chapter 31 - Chapter 31: Recovery

『Hakari Kotaro』

Once the heroes arrived, the cleanup was so swift that you'd doubt that the villains ever actually posed a threat. They moved with practiced motions, suppressing villain after villain with ease. With the number advantage negated, the untrained crooks recruited en-masse are no threat.

I took the opportunity to turn to my new notifications, a Platinum and Diamond tickets. The best ticket I have only gotten scant before, and a new tier above that. Without hesitation, I rolled both instantly. It felt like at this moment, whatever it could give me, I could use at the moment.

With a mental prompt, the Platinum Trait Ticket rolled itself.

Rolling Platinum Trait Gacha...

An Elite Trait!

[Disney Princess]

|Elite Trait|

All animals naturally adore you and are friendly toward you, in addition, all Animal or Animal aligned entities take a liking to you easier and it is easier to earn their affection and bond with them. In addition, you are naturally incredibly good at singing even without training.

A combat trait would have been... more appreciated. Yeah, I was aiming for a harem and romancing girls also gave tickets, but I was also aiming to not die brutally. And I ran fresh out of Enchanted Golden Apples to feast on.

But... y'know...

Mirko.

Yeah, this trait justifies itself if it gets me even a goddamn inch closer to getting my skull crushed by those thighs.

Let's see if the Diamond will give me something that will let me survive long enough to get to that point.

Rolling Diamond Ability...

An Epic Ability!

[Greater Hemokinesis]

|Epic Ability|

Allows you to exert power over blood, over your own or your enemy's. You can sense all blood within your sensory range and exert telekinetic control over it. To control blood inside of a target to any meaningful level you have to be stronger than them.

My eyes went wide open at the Epic ability I just got, not just because it was Epic, a tier at least one above Elite. But because...

My Intermediate Biology flared. I had never gotten much use of it even though it was rather great as extensive knowledge of biology but now?

It told me volumes about how I could use that Hemokinesis. That was not simple Blood Manipulation, there was "greater" there for a reason. It was precise and powerful. I could pull out some major bullshit, especially with my healing abilities.

From what I could tell, this was basically the same one from JJK in terms of raw force and versatility; and my Biology knowledge would allow me to use it much more effectively. As I was pondering, a hero approached me from the rubble. He was not one I recognized. Yet more divergences. How fun.

"Student, are you injured?"

His brows furrowed in worry when he saw me, I could not name him, my brain was pretty damn foggy at the moment. I ran my hand through my hair and found blood. Right, looking down, I noticed I was soaked head to toe in blood from where my veins were exposed and broken by decay.

"I'm not injured."

Giving truth to my assertion, I slotted in Hemokinesis in place of healing light and made all the dried and not so dried blood covering my body drain way onto the floor before his very eyes.

"S-still, you should get checked by a medical professional."

I narrowed my eyes at him in irritation, I had one hell of a headache from the concussion marathon Shigaraki ran me through, and the Regeneration repaired the neurological damage, obviously from the fact that I could spell that word. But it still left echoes of it in my head. My body had recovered, but my mind and nervous system hadn't.

To put it simply, I felt like a rag at the moment.

"For your information, I am kind of a Medical... amateur. I can heal others too alright? Injured... injuries... shit, how is 13 and Aizawa?"

He looked away and scratched his head.

"They aren't looking good, anyway, you have to come with me, it's procedure, we have to get you kids out of here."

I shook my head, I could not take chances, they were not dead, that was a good start, but things went different, I don't know just how injured they are, nor are the others, or Toga. I placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Where are the injured? Bring me there."

"I-"

My eyes landed on his, hardened and sincere.

"I am qualified enough as a medic, Recovery Girl can vouch for me. So just take me there, I saw how badly Aizawa was beat up and what happened to Thirteen. You know how rare healing quirks are, mine is better than Recovery Girl's for situations like this."

He sighed and scratched his head with frustration.

"Fine, Mr. Nezu is there as well, he'll know what to do to. I'm not qualified for this, I just received the distress signal during patrol and joined in. Follow me."

Finally, I quietly muttered some thanks and followed him, it was a brisk walk to where one half of the heroes were escorting the heroes and the injured, while the other half were situated near the main entrance, escorting out the students.

"Yo! Hakari, the heck you're doin' over here!? You should be with the rest of your classmates."

My English teacher, Present Mic exclaimed when I got near and the other teachers turned around, Nezu included, he faced me with an inscrutable expression.

"I am here to heal the injured, during the last fight, my healing powers got stronger, and I saw just how badly some people got banged up. Especially Aizawa and Thirteen, you guys cannot heal them without surgery, can you? I can. Regular surgery would take them off the field until they heal."

They looked at me, but I did not bother turning my eyes towards them, maybe I was overreacting, but after all of that... I did not want to take chances.

Nezu got down from the shoulder of one hero and took one good look at me, he held that look for several moments before smiling softly as if seeing something he wanted to see.

"Don't worry everyone, Hakari-kun, Aizawa and Thirteen are currently being transported to the hospital. As Recovery Girl has already vouched for your abilities, I'll trust your capabilities, as long as you co-operate with Hospital Staff of course."

Not like I wouldn't have done that anyway, I was just some dumbass floundering around.

"Right, will do. I'd say I could get there fast while flying, but I need to reserve my energy, any chance someone can give me a ride to catch up to the ambulances. "

"Don't worry Hakari-kun, I'll arrange something."

⚀—⚁⚂⚃—⚄—•⚅•—⚄—⚃⚂⚁—⚀

Arrange something the Rat Man did, he had one of the police officers that arrived on scene to drive me to the hospital, I was concerned about not showing my face to Toga and the others, so I asked one of the other officers to pass on the message that I was still somehow alive to them.

The ride to the hospital was quick and fast, during the ride I busied myself with stuffing as much food as I could down my gullet to recover some energy. I was not doing too hot, but this rag was just wet enough so squeeze some more juice out of it baby.

I also put on my hoodie over my bare chest as I left the cop car and rushed into the hospital. I found the receptionist and approached them.

"Where are the Pro Heroes Thirteen and Eraser Head? They should have arrived just now."

The receptionist looked perturbed by my fervor as they almost stuttered a reply.

"Sir I can't-"

I took out my student ID and put it on the desk in front of her.

"Hakari Kotaro, UA Student, apprentice of Recovery Girl, I have a healing quirk. I was granted permission by the Principal of UA Hero Academy Nezu to heal them. Ring whoever, you must have Recovery Girl's number, she'll vouch for me."

But just as the receptionist was about to stutter something else, I felt a hand land on my shoulder. I turned around to see an aged doctor looking at me with a stern expression.

"No need, I saw you volunteer here last time young Hakari, we will need you help. Recovery Girl is here too, we can handle procedures later. Follow those nurses, we need to get you disinfected and in scrubs."

I... did not expect that to pay off like this, but you know what? Fuck it, I'll take it, I followed the men he pointed to who rushed me to a room and gave me some scrubs while the other used his quirk on me, appropriately called "Scrub" that cleaned and disinfected whatever he touched.

Once I was appropriately dressed for the occasion, I was rushed to where I was needed once again, an emergency I saw Recovery girl standing outside, we locked eyes, and the woman's hardened look softened into a slight smile.

"Boy, didn't you just survive a terrorist attack? Are you sure you should be here? Kid's like you should rest."

I scoffed.

"Yeah, I survived but will they? That's why I'm here. I know I'm the best healer in Musutafu for a situation like this. And my healing ability got upgraded, so I'm now more effective. Please give me a rundown of how bad it is Recovery girl."

She shook her head while releasing a fond sigh.

"Youngsters these days, reminding me of myself too much. It's not good, Aizawa had a shattered arm, skinned elbow, severely bruised back, and his facial bones have been smashed real badly, there are also the injuries to his eyes, he will need surgery, but even I cannot guarantee perfect recovery."

"That Thirteen gal on the other hand, her injuries are also terrible but manageable, most of the skin and muscles on her back have been completely shredded and most of her spine has suffered incredible damage. What do you think Hakari?"

My energy reserves have not recovered fully. I am pretty fucking tired. I really don't want to have to bother with all of this. I just want to lay down and rest.

"I'll go for Aizawa first, please go in with Recovery Girl-sensei, after do some stabilization work, I'll need you to do the heavy healing part. Same for Thirteen. I'll need someone to align the bones for me and stabilize his body in a way I can heal optimally."

She smiled and patted me on the back, which due to her height was more like my lower back. Perhaps my nerves were too apparent to her, since she felt the need to give me a pep talk.

"You'll do great Sonny. I'll help you out, don't worry."

A chuckle managed to wrestle its way out.

"Nah, I'm more worried about if the hospital rooms are heated enough for me to pass out comfortably."

Time to heal up my prickly teacher.

A/N: Hakari is winning so bad right now, what's with the amount of Bio abilities he keeps getting? It's almost insane. Hemokises has some insane synergies, it may be the wrong JJK character, but Hakari will start moving like an actual JJK character now. What did you guys think of the roll? I'd love to know.

Dr. Hakari is on the scene, and the bullshit abilities are on call. I did not anticipate a White Mage route for Hakari, but it is oddly fitting that after all his life of hurting, this is the route he has to go down. He doesn't think he is doing very well, but he is trying.
