Jeanne was certain that GHOST would come out from his helicopter with a serious injury on his body that would need treatment and a lot of rest. He might even have a life-threatening injury that would make her use her powers on him! She was sure that one of these two things would happen!
But she could have never prepared herself to see a perfectly fine GHOST coming out from the helicopter while carrying a sleeping girl in his arms. There were a few injuries on Mark's body, but they were mainly little scratches and some scars that would be easy to just put ointment on and wait for it to close on its own.
Superhumans all had a very high healing factor, so the injuries would probably be gone by this time next week.
Jeanne didn't even know that she had spaced out until Mark was passing in front of her and he raised a brow at her.
"You're in the way. Move."
Jeanne snapped back to reality and she blinked up at the much taller man before her eyes narrowed. She looked down at the girl that he was carrying and realized that she didn't recognize her. She isn't a superhuman. Was this the girl that he went over there to rescue? She is beautiful.
Jeanne felt a little bit of jealousy fill her heart as she saw the girl in Mark's arms. Jeanne knew that she had nothing to be jealous of because she was also beautiful, but she couldn't help but feel like Arit was unnaturally beautiful! She looked like some sort of sleeping beauty in Mark's arms!
And even if Arit wasn't on her feet, Jeanne could tell that Arit's proportions were nothing to joke about! If Arit ever wore Jeanne's clothes, her waist and bust size would rip Jeanne's clothes to shreds!
Jeanne shook her head to get rid of those self-deprecating thoughts as she faced Mark again.
"You need to have a physical examination before you can go. There is a chance that you have an internal injury."
Jeanne said this gently as she turned to one of the nurses at the side and told him to come closer so he could take Mark into the examination room. Mark looked at Greg curiously and Greg nodded to tell Mark that he should just go along with her since she was only doing her job.
Mark shook his head and told Jeanne that they did not need an examination. They were perfectly fine.
"You don't need an examination? I didn't know you became a doctor in the few hours on that island."
[The Growth Potential tab shows a Superhuman's Growth rate and future potential. A superhuman with a growth potential of A will grow ten times faster than a superhuman with a growth potential of B, and a superhuman with a growth potential of S will grow ten times faster than a superhuman with a growth potential of A.]
Mark raised a brow as a system tab appeared at the side of his visions and he read the message that the system sent to him. That was a very simple description and Mark immediately understood what it meant.
It just meant that those with lower ranks could become much stronger if they had a high growth potential, and those with higher ranks would eventually start lagging behind if their growth potential was low. But doesn't this mean that your growth potential was just as important as your rank?
If you had a high rank and a low growth potential, then it would just be the same as having a low rank because in a few years, you will start lagging behind.
Mark quickly asked the system what his own growth potential was. The system never showed it on the tabs, so Mark was curious about how quickly he grows.
[The User's Growth Potential is Concealed by Sozin. Besides, the User has the system; you do not need Growth Potential.]
What the heck? Mark was surprised when he read what the system sent to him, and he could only feel like the system was trying to brag that it was greater than any growth potential. But Mark was still curious about what his real growth potential was, and he decided that he would ask Sozin about it the next time they met.
The next time Mark spoke, Mark's tone carried a threatening undertone as he glared down at Jeanne.
"I think I've bled enough time to know when something is wrong with my body. I'm not in the best mood right now, doctor. Move."
Jeanne felt her annoyance spike when she heard what Mark said to her, but she refused to let it show as she continued to glare up at him! She didn't know why it was such a big deal for him to not get himself examined and it irked her off that he was looking down on her so much, but she eventually decided to let it go since she had other patients to take care of.
Jeanne only wanted to examine Mark because she was curious about his powers and how he managed to come back with a few injuries when others were completely decimated by the monsters on that island! But he would not allow her curiosity to stop her from doing her job.
"Fine, you can go. Just make sure to get yourself checked if you feel anything strange."
Jeanne gave Mark one last critical look before she turned away and began to walk into the building so that she could go to the operating rooms. She was swarmed by a large crowd of doctors who were all trying to get her to a different operating room first, and she didn't have any time to think about Mark as she was led into the building.
