The Lone Healer

When the Unity Trials first began and Neve was granted a system along with the rest of humanity, she sincerely hoped she would be among the first to die. Death eluded her, though, so, until her time came, she reluctantly settled into the role of a healer. One day, she and a group of players ventured into the realm of the Final Challenge, a strange, otherworldly dungeon that would give humanity a ten-year resting period if they completed it. But, although death eluded her, it found all of her allies. Now, with no one to rely on and a burning desire for revenge, Neve must become stronger if she hopes to avenge them. How exactly can she do so, however, when she is only a healer? A survival GL adventure story!

The Land of the Dead, Part Six

The man stared her down with his beady yellow eyes. Neve didn't make a move for fear of getting herself killed. She even breathed a little more slowly, just in case that might prevent the guy from pulling the trigger. 

Although Tamira had told her she could kill NPCs before, the fact that these people carried no levels over their heads made their strength infinitely harder to gauge. 

Sure, safe assumptions were possible. Neve didn't need to see a level over Ahlakan's head to know she wouldn't do too much in a fight. But someone like Kelvon, however, could have the damage output to kill her easily. That sphere of flames he'd greeted her with back when she first visited his shop was still fresh in her mind. 

[That old geezer...] She thought. [I wonder what he would have done with the freedom Ahlakan was given thanks to me. What he would have wanted to do.]
