Strongest Superhuman System - Chapter 113

Chapter 113: Brother and Sister
Patrick shrugged nonchalantly and Jeanne growled as she started to roll the porn magazines together so that she could use it and smack Patrick on the head! This idiot deserves a good beating for always hiding things from her.

Patrick realized what his sister was about to do and he immediately shouted while moving behind Mark to hide.

“Hey! Do you want to fucking kill me!?!”

“I won’t hit you hard!”

“Even the smallest hit from you will kill me! I’m a normal human, you crazy bitch!”

“Don’t call me a bitch! I’m your elder sister! Show some respect!”

“I’ll do that when you stop searching my damn room for porn! I told you not to look under my bed anymore!”

“How else am I supposed to find out anything about you!? It’s not like you’ll tell me anything anyway!”

“Uh… How about we all calm down.”

Mark spoke up placatingly, and Jeanne quickly turned to glare at him angrily, but she managed to reign in her anger and she calmed down as she put her hands on her hips while leaning on one leg. She was not done with Patrick, but she just decided to focus on the guests first and deal with Patrick later.

She looked Mark over with a small frown on her face, and she huffed a little. She could still remember the interaction that she had with Mark when they were in the NSA. Mark refused to get himself looked at even though she could clearly see that he was bleeding. Jeanne was surprised that Mark was actually telling the truth when he said he heals fast. He didn’t have a single injury on him anymore, so it was obvious that he already healed completely. His rate of healing was absurd even for superhumans. Even though superhumans healed quickly, they would usually take a week or so to heal the amount of injuries that Mark had. It hasn’t even been three days since they last met.

“So, GHOST, you’re the one that’s been taking advantage of my brother?”

Patrick sighed and began to walk out from behind Mark while talking.

“Don’t embarrass me, sis. Mark knows more about me than you do. Try to get along with him.”

Jeanne huffed and turned away from Mark with a small frown on her face. Jeanne was a very proud person, but she was also someone who really cared about her family. But Jeanne didn’t know much about her brother since she hardly met him during most of his life. Jeanne was already in college when Patrick was in elementary school, and she was away at medical school during the Armageddon attack, so she wasn’t there to help Patrick or their parents.

After she finally made it back to the city, Jeanne made it her personal mission to take care of Patrick, but it was very difficult to do that because Patrick was so secretive and he held everything very close to his chest. He refused to open up about anything in his personal life and Jeanne still felt like a stranger to him sometimes. She didn’t even know how he managed to survive the Armageddon attack when their parents died. She found him in a shelter two months after the attack and began to take care of him, but he refused to tell her anything about what he saw that day. He might’ve lived, but she knew that he lost a part of himself that day.

So when Patrick told Jeanne that he needed her help with a diagnosis for a friend of his, she immediately agreed. It was very rare for her brother to ask her for help, mainly because of how fucking smart Patrick was. He usually found the solution to any issue without needing anyone’s help. So for him to ask her to help him out was like a breath of fresh air to her. She could finally be there for him when he needed her. Of course, she wouldn’t refuse him!

Jeanne left a lot of work in the NSA and came to see Patrick. Jeanne was sure that Salazar would have a fit if he found out that she was doing independent work without informing the NSA, but she already told them that she was going to be working independently even though she was a part of the organization, so she didn’t care what he says. The entire reason she joined the NSA was so she could help others without restrictions.

Patrick leaned back on a table and spoke to Jeanne tiredly.

“I need your help with my sister-in-law over there. There was a… complication that ended up with her being kidnapped by some Anima. Can you make sure everything is okay with her?”

Jeanne hummed and turned to look at Arit. Arit was also staring at Jeanne, but there was shock and awe in her eyes, and Jeanne immediately knew that Arit was a fan of hers. It was not unusual to see people who recognized her looking at her like that. Jeanne told Patrick that she would try her best, and Patrick nodded in thanks.

Mark looked down at Arit.

“I need to talk with Pat for a moment, so do you mind going with Jeanne?”

“Alright.”

Arit hesitantly let go of Mark’s arm as she agreed. Mark already told her that she would be getting examined, so she was prepared for it. Mark gestured to Pat by nodding his head to the left, and Pat understood that Mark wanted to talk to him alone. The two of them walked away and left Jeanne and Arit together in the parlor.

“Let’s find somewhere comfortable. This room is too large.”

Jeanne spoke up while using the roll of porn magazines to scratch behind her head while putting her other hand on her waist, and Arit agreed as she followed Jeanne into another room. In the midst of all this, Talia stayed glued to the cartoon playing on the large television.

Talia was already used to staying silent whenever the adults were talking. When she was with her grandfather in the NSA, she would be in the office when he was having an important meeting, and she would just stay silent through it all. That was the life of a child introduced into the world of adults too early.

…

“My brother told me that you wanted a full-body analysis. But that was a lie, wasn’t it? To tell the truth, I deduced what was wrong the moment I saw you. You’re a psychopath, aren’t you?”

Arit had barely sat down on the bed in the middle of a large bedroom before Jeanne turned around and spoke with narrowed eyes. Jeanne’s tone was confident, and Arit was sure that there was no way she could lie to get herself out of this or change Jeanne’s mind.

When Mark told Arit that she would have to come for a diagnosis, she already expected a physical examination as well as a psychological analysis. She was prepared to lie a little to make things seem okay since she did not want to worry Mark, but once she came through the door and saw that the doctor was Jeanne, she could see all of her plans die immediately!

Arit knew who Jeanne was! No, that was not enough to describe how much Arit knew about Jeanne. Arit was one of Jeanne’s biggest followers. Arit did not like superhumans. She disliked how many of them overlooked the weak and only looked out for the rich and powerful, but that did not mean that Arit just blindly hated every superhuman. Arit knew of a few superhumans that were different from all the others. One of them was KING, and the other one was Jeanne, the MIRACLE HEALER!
