Chapter 42: Finding a Souvenir for Big Bro
Mikan?
Upon hearing this name, the first thing that flashed through Kamizuki Hikari's mind was the image of a younger sister belonging to some intergalactic harem protagonist.
That extreme?!
Ah, the shinobi world—never a dull moment.
Then, Hikari remembered someone else—a person who left a deep impression on him.
Mikan, the head nurse of Konoha Hospital.
At thirty years old, while her looks couldn't compare to Tsunade's, she was still one of the most attractive women in the hospital. Unlike the younger girls, Mikan carried the charm of a mature woman mixed with a hint of youthful stubbornness—making her quite the catch.
However, Hikari and Mikan had never gotten along.
Back when he was training at Konoha Hospital, they had been at odds from the start.
Mikan strongly disapproved of Hikari's habit of flirting with the young nurses. She even reported him to the Third Hokage several times. But since Hikari never went beyond playful banter—rarely even holding hands—the old man eventually stopped paying attention to her complaints.
Over time, their mutual dislike became a well-established fact.
