After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World

Chapter 955 - 955: Pedia and Oby-gn Department

The next day, Dr. Cythia's Pedia and Oby-gyn department was particularly busy. Fortunately, she had her assistant, Nurse Lea, a baby-faced 30-year-old who was also training to do her job for some basic cases.

She was a new addition from Shrao nee Vismont Village as one of the slaves bought over by Alterra. She was now working hard in order to gain her freedom.

Fortunately, the territory only took a portion of her salary. That, along with the low cost of living in Alterra, allowed her to live a comfortable life that made up for the suffering she went through during the past few months.

She was still unable to afford a Resident status, and she was still a slave in name, but she had never been so free since the disasters happened.

Anyway, at this time, she eagerly watched as the doctor handled a patient quite well-known in the territory. It was no other than the beautiful re

"Well, you don't need to worry," she said. "The child is healthy. You're doing a great job—both of you are."

…

Speaking of Shiela, she had a long line of patients getting a scan at this time. She was in a very good mood. She found her family after all, and they were settling in quite nicely.

Somehow her mood increased her efficiency so she had finished quite a few patients earlier than she thought.

Sheila's place was a doctor's room where she did a private 'scanning'. The patients ranged from those checking for ailments (mostly according to doctor request, with directions on where to focus to save on mana), to pregnancies. Mostly, pregnancies.

So many young lives were forming—and it was obvious that Mathilda's new policy was already showing effects. Seeing the traces of the fetuses was her favorite thing to do in this assignment.

New lives, new hope.

Sheila also wanted one, she thought longingly, unconsciously patting her own stomach. She wondered when she could?

Because of the level differences between her and Eagle, procreation wasn't as easy as the others. Of course, she was told they just needed a bit more time, and it was still very much possible for them to have a child.

Imagining her own child was already making her happy.

Of course, if Eagle heard of this longing, he'd be very very glad to help her out.

Success in this case was a number's game, after all. They just had to do it way more times than before!

…

Anyway, Sheila was a professional and did not linger in her daze for too long. She got the next few patients in, and handled them with the greatest care she could give.

After another hour, Shiela finished scanning a patient recovering from a bone injury.

"The bone is healing nicely," she said, also writing the note down. "But you still can't put pressure there."

"Thanks, Miss Sheila," the young lad said, blushing a bit, though her husband's scary face flashed in his mind and the thoughts were immediately wiped off.

Sheila smiled, taking note of the patient in her logbook. She looked at her stats. She was limited to a certain number of patients which required only a handful of mana cookies in order not to overexert herself.

This next one happened to be the last one. She didn't look at the info yet as she was still finishing some notes on the previous patient.

"Next patient please," she said without looking at the door but, when she lifted her head, her eyebrows rose when she saw who it was.

"Kimmy?"
