A brother's love. Into the dark

Miracle?

Max woke up in bed, he was covered in bandages, one over his forehead, arm, and torso. Looking around he locked eyes with a nurse, who seeing him looked terrified, Max was confused by that, was there something on his face?

"H-How Is this possible?"

What did she mean by that? I mean by his knowing waking up wasn't that hard.

'That was a nice nap, so I was able to find somewhere to sleep after all.'

He smiled.

"I have to get a doctor right now!"

There she goes again, it wasn't such a big deal, she's acting like he woke up from the death or something.

When the nurse returned, she brought a doctor with her.

"Is it true you're awake Max?"

'Do you have eyes? Of course, I am. And how did you even know my name?'

"It's unbelievable."

There he goes ignoring his question, Max frowned

'Can I have an explanation or something?'

"Ah, yes, I apologize. You see, you were brought here by a man, and when we saw you, you were in critical condition, you had lost a lot of blood and were pale as a result, and your soul was about to break. When we started nursing you, but you fell into a coma, I approximated that you would wake up in the exaggerated minimum of two months, but even that seemed impossible, the wounds weren't that bad, but the damage to your soul was."

'My soul was almost broken? What does that even mean?'

'"When someone uses their soul to exhaustion, they collapse but wake up after some time, but if you repeat this in a short period of time, your soul will take damage, and with enough damage, it will shatter and you will die, another method for this is if you do not fall unconscious after using your soul to its point of fatigue and continue pushing."

'I see.'

Max chuckled uncomfortably.

"Speaking of it, which of these happened to you?"

That was not the question he had hoped for, little did the doctor know, Max had taken part in both of these scenarios.

'Um, both.'

The doctor laughed loudly, obviously not believing it.

"Both? Haha, that is amusing, child."

But when he saw Max's unamused expression, he understood he wasn't joking.

"I see... you know you put yourself in a very dangerous situation, not only was your soul damaged, but you were also leaking power."

After hearing the doctor's statements, you would expect Max to feel a sense of shame and regret, but you would be mistaken, killing that piece of crap was more important to him than anything else.

'Hey, you said It would have taken me at least two months to wake up, how long has it been?'

"two days."

Max looked doubtful as if it couldn't be possible.

'Very funny, doctor.'

"I'm telling you the truth, we don't know how to explain it. It must be a miracle...no it must be fate."

'Again with this damn fate?'

Max thought.

"We haven't even started working on repairing your core, and blood is still leaking out."
