24 Squad 13 3 (2/2)

Grace smiled bitterly as she wrote up a report. The two week of incubation passed.

The incubator lids creaked open one by one. The incubation solutions were flooding the laboratory floor.

Gradually, the youths regained their alertness and crawled out of their incubators. They couldn't manage to stand properly at all. They staggered around and tripped onto the ground.

”Cough”

The students began to vomit.

They somehow managed to follow the researchers into the patient ward while bearing with their dizziness. All of the students got onto their beds while seeming to be struggling with a high fever. It would take another two days to regain proper alertness.

”…. Has anyone died?”

Someone with a clear voice asked. The researchers momentarily questioned their hearing. It was Han Lee who had asked among the group of students.

Trudge, trudge.

Han used all his strength to get up while using his bedside pole as support.

”None.”

”I see.”

Han closed his eyes, fainting. The researchers discussed amongst themselves.

”He was able to regain alertness immediately after getting out of the incubators.”

”I wonder if it's because he didn't go through the psychic energy inducing process.”

”Even if that is so, it would be hard to recover their alertness like he had.”

Han's recovery was much faster than most youths. He was able to make a full recovery after just a day.

He had been able to solve the math problems of the Uchida-Kraepelin performance test with relative ease.

”Do not be surprised upon seeing the mirror.”

The researchers brought personal mirrors for the students to see. Han's irises trembled. His face felt unfamiliar. His face had matured greatly.

Creaak.

A machine had been attached to Han's hips, spine, and legs. The mechanical exoskeleton helped aid his gait.

”You must have the mechanical exoskeleton attached to you for awhile. You will be able to recover within three weeks time, with lots of time to spare. Your recovery speed is extremely frightening. There are students who have yet to awaken as we speak.”

Han was not able to get out of his personal recovery room for awhile. Grace visited each student's room one by one to consult with the patients.

”Are you doing well?”

Grace asked.

”Thanks to you.”

Han's eyes looked calm. Grace had consulted with five other students prior to visiting Han.

'He doesn't seem as agitated as the other children.'

Grace took out some graphs and statistics that Han couldn't understand. It had the run down of the complications and the reasons why they had stopped inducing psychic powers.

”There is no precedence for this situation. It was the first time a psyker ever rejected psychic energies. Do you understand what this means? Anyway, if we forced the procedure you would have died. You probably don't remember, but you were banging inside the incubator and going crazy.

Han nodded his head.

”It's better to be alive than receive the procedure.”

”Han, you will be registered as a unique case. Whenever you experience problems with your psychic powers, come report to me. Are you experiencing any other problems? Maybe like feeling disharmony with your physical body– things like that.”

”I feel refreshed. I have one less thing to worry about. At least now, I won't have to worry about getting kicked out for having bad grades, right?”

Grace continued her consultation with Han for awhile longer. She recalled the information of Han's profile.

'This was the reason Sergeant Red had recommended this student.'

Han had no problems regarding his mental health. He had a strong and confident sense of self. Grace was momentarily shocked and peered toward Han.

'Is this the steel spirit that Sergeant Red had been looking for?'

It was to the degree that Grace felt a bit embarrassed asking these types of questions to Han. Han articulated his answers clearly. On the contrary, he began to ask questions about the future.

”Yes, after everyone becomes stable, you'll be able to meet each other once more.”

Grace stepped out of Han's hospital ward. Han's health exam was near perfect. There would be no problem if he were to start training right away.

'Psychic talent is important, but strong mental strength is important as well. Han excelled compared to the students his age. It's a mystery why his psychic talent is so low.'

Grace contemplated carefully. There should be a specific reason his body had rejected psychic energy induction.

Psychic energy was still quite a mysterious factor. It had not been fully understood yet. It was much more related to the supernatural world.
