Chapter 114: Psychopath
Chapter 114: Psychopath
As someone who wanted to be a doctor in the future, there is no way that Arit would not know all about Jeanne! Jeanne was one of the most popular healers in the country, and so Arit has been following all of her actions for some time now.
Jeanne wasn't like the other superhumans who just wanted money; Jeanne joined the NSA instead of joining any independent guild because the NSA promised her freedom to act independently whenever she wanted. That has allowed Jeanne to travel to many different parts of the country to help out whenever there was a disaster that was too large to be handled by normal doctors.
Arit really looked up to Jeanne, but she also knew that Jeanne was impossible to fool. Jeanne's power centered around healing, but she also had an alternate minor power called Analysis that allowed her to easily diagnose injuries and diseases with only a touch.
With that ability, Jeanne didn't even need to carry out a diagnosis on her patient before she finds out what was wrong with them! Just a single touch was enough to give Jeanne full knowledge of everything wrong with your body! Even though it was only a minor blessing, it was still one of the greatest diagnosis skills available in America.
That is why Jeanne was considered an A rank even though her attack power was barely strong enough to challenge a B rank and so many guilds wanted her in their ranks. She was just too valuable!
Jeanne saw Arit look away from her, and she knew that she was right! Arit was a psychopath. And it wasn't just normal psychopathy that could be diagnosed as a complete mental disorder; Arit was a psychopath whose mental state was connected to one person: Mark Vanitas.
Jeanne noticed it the moment she saw Mark and Arit earlier. Jeanne's eyes were keen, and she had a very high level of perception. After seeing so many patients and healing so many people in he middle of disasters, she has developed a good eye for how people react in different situations! The reaction that Jeanne saw in Arit's eyes when Jeanne insulted Mark can only be described as controlled fury!
When Jeanne spoke rudely to Mark and even insulted him, she immediately noticed how Arit's anger spiked for a moment! Jeanne actually thought that Arit was going to attack her at first, but she was shocked when Arit was able to bring the anger down and control it!
Jeanne did not understand what in the world was happening at the moment, but after she spoke with Mark a few more times and continued to notice Arit's reactions, she finally deduced that Arit was a psychopath who only cared about Mark Vanitas. This wasn't the first time that Jeanne would be seeing something like this.
There have been many instances where people would go insane or become psychopaths because they were fixated on one thing or person. But it was the first time that she was seeing it at such an intense emotional level.
The only way Jeanne could properly describe it was that Arit was one step away from becoming a yandere!
Jeanne brought a chair close, and she sat opposite from Arit. Arit was still looking away from Jeanne, and Jeanne just sighed as she folded her hands. Since she already knew what was wrong with Arit, she only needed to find out how bad it was!
"We can do this one of two ways. Either you tell me exactly what happened to you and how bad your mental state is, or you allow me to touch you and find out on my own. I would much rather prefer it if you just told me. I am not a fan of using my own abilities, even just for scanning others."
Jeanne said this calmly and then she waited for Arit to say something in return! Arit was silent for some time before Jeanne saw Arit join her hands together tightly! When Arit turned back to Jeanne, Jeanne was shocked to see that Arit's eyes were now a slitted yellow that made Jeanne's skin crawl in terror! What the heck is that!?
'Kill her! Kill her! She is trying to ruin us! This bitch is trying to ruin our life! We are QUEEN! We know who we are!
We do not need a doctor! KILL HER!!'
Arit closed her eyes and gritted her teeth in fear as she heard the voices in her head shouting at her again. She tried to drown them out, but they were relentless! Arit's eyes already changed to the slitted yellow because she could not make them shut up! When she spoke, Jeanne could sense the pain and fear in Arit's tone!
"I don't even know what's happening to me. But please, can you help me?"
Jeanne immediately tried to calm her heart down as she looked away from the yellow eye! Those things were terrifying, and Jeanne didn't know if she could look into those eyes for a long time without thinking Arit was a monster! Jeanne has seen many types of people before. The introduction of blessings into the human world was something that made many humans change in different ways.
Some of them gained mutations while others gained powers that made their body evolve, but this was the first time that Jeanne was seeing something like this.
Those eyes weren't human.
The amount of bloodthirst and anger inside them was not normal for any human! If Jeanne didn't know any better, then she would say that those were Anima eyes!
Jeanne had no idea how close she was to the truth.
But even though Jeanne was terrified of those eyes, she could also see that Arit was really asking for help! Arit did not know what was happening to her and she was scared of the changes, so Jeanne could not just overlook her plea for help! This is a patient that needs help, and Jeanne was a doctor that helped everyone.
It didn't matter how terrifying Arit was; Jeanne was going to try her best to help her understand what was going on!
Jeanne smiled calmly and told Arit to calm down first. Jeanne was no longer going to act tough and mean! Now that she was sure Arit wanted help, she was going to be kind to her!
"I'm going to diagnose you first and then we will figure out what we can do to help you. Is that okay?"
Arit nodded her head, and Jeanne stretched her hand out and touched Arit on the forehead. Jeanne began to activate her ability. Her abilities were divided into two parts: the first part was the HEALING ability that allowed her to reverse any injury that a person had in exchange for the person's life force, but the second part was ANALYSIS.
This allowed her to find out where the injury originated from or its precise location so that she could reverse the injury more easily.
Jeanne activated analysis, and she began trying to scan across Arit's brain.
Woosh!
Jeanne's eyes widened as a fist flew towards her head!
Slam!
