XiaoYu certainly didn’t go far . This map was so big, he thought . If he gradually headed to the opposite direction, killing mobs as he went, surely he won’t encounter them again .

When he heard a stampede of Jiangshi hopping about, he was worried for a moment that he’d stumbled upon a boss . XiaoYu turned around and saw the a.s.sa.s.sin who was a.s.sessing him before running back to him with over ten Jiangshi right behind him . The naive XiaoYu didn’t think it’d be a trap . He thought the party of three might’ve met a berserk mob and only the a.s.sa.s.sin was fast enough to escape .

XiaoYu, filled with the professional ethics of a healer, threw a Haste at Nightmare-Demon . He even casted a Heal on the other, only to see Nightmare-Demon run even faster towards his direction .

“Lucky, you idiot! Run!” a voice shouted .

Before XiaoYu even had time to see who was telling him to run, Nightmare-Demon was running by his eyes . The other gave an evil grin and vanished . At first, the Jiangshi just stood there, stunned . Then, as if they found a new target, they unanimously spat poisonous gas at XiaoYu while hopping over to hit him .

“Arrow Rain! Lucky, don’t s.p.a.ce out! Heal yourself!” A storm of silver arrows swooshed right into the Jiangshi . The hurt mobs turned their attentions to the new target and leaped towards the person who shot those arrows .

After being simultaneously attacked by numerous bursts of poison, XiaoYu’s health was near empty . If his necklace’s poison resistance dramatically reducing the damage he received while poisoned and for how long the poison lasted, XiaoYu would’ve been flat out on the floor by now .

With a swift heal, an AoE heal and a potion, XiaoYu was able to recover from the dizzy effects of low health . He looked to his saviour and his gut clenched . It was Robin, the archer he partied with during team training . Robin had summoned his eagle, a pet that’s not suited for flying in the cave, to help with attacking . Robin himself kept withdrawing and dodging while casting Arrow Rain . This was an AoE skill which cost a lot of MP and arrows, yet it wasn’t as damaging as just a single arrow being shot one by one .

Robin’s lips were turning blue . He was clearly poisoned yet he busy chugging potions while barely dodging the physical attacks . XiaoYu quickly threw heals, Haste, Saint’s Seal and cured Robin’s poison . As only players could only see the health bar of their party, XiaoYu kept curing and healing Robin . If he ran out of MP, he’ll down some potions . He didn’t have time to wait for his MP to slowly regenerate by itself . The only thing in his mind right now was he cannot let Robin die .

The two kept throwing out skills as if that’s all that mattered . As XiaoYu was able to react in time to buff Robin, the other was able to stop chugging potion bottles and focus on dealing with the crowd of Jiangshi before him .

As Robin’s eagle had attracted quite a few Jiangshi’s attention, the current circ.u.mstance was favouring XiaoYu’s side . Finally, the entire group of monsters laid dead on the floor . Unfortunately, the eagle Robin’s raised for so long died with them .

“d.a.m.n it! What’s going on with you, a.s.sa.s.sin? Were you trying to kill him?” Robin shouted at where the a.s.sa.s.sin had hidden himself . His sharp eyes allowed him to see the shady expression on the a.s.sa.s.sin’s face as he ran towards LuckyCat . To Robin’s surprise, not only did LuckyCat not shy away from the other, he even buffed that b.a.s.t.a.r.d . Luckily, LuckyCat wasn’t shocked silly and was able to heal himself and help Robin in time . Otherwise, it wouldn’t just be his eagle dying .

“Tch . What made you think I’m trying to kill him? Where’s your proof?” Nightmare-Demon cancelled his Cloaking and revealed himself . He knew the urgent situation back then meant this archer didn’t have time to record it all down, so he had nothing to fear . He thought of attacking the two players when they were busy with the monsters but starting PvP mode will force his name to pop out . He didn’t want to leave evidence behind .

“You…!” It was true . Robin didn’t have time to record anything . He was forced dead on his tracks .

“Nightmare-gege~” called Snow as IndomitableBattle and she ran over . When snow saw that XiaoYu was still alive and well, her face showed how upset she was . “Tch . You’re not dead . ”

“And you still say you’re not trying to kill him . ” One look at that woman’s face and Robin knew this was all her fault . While he didn’t know what LuckyCat did to trigger them, he knew it must be the other party who’s at fault .

“If you can’t show any proof, then shut your yap,” said Nightmare-Demon, looking exactly like a hooligan .

“Hmph . Serves him right . Even monsters can’t stand him and want to beat him up . Why don’t you ask him on what he did?” Snow was really upset . Both times, someone had to come and save this LuckyCat .

The impulsive urge to just charge right up and say something was still strong in Robin, but he was stopped by a tug on his sleeve .

“It’s fine, Robin,” Whispered XiaoYu as he pulled Robin back by his sleeve . After that mess of a battle, both of their MP bars were near empty . Robin’s eagle was dead . If a PvP fight broke out now, the two of them wouldn’t be able to handle these three players .

“I don’t know what you’re angry at him for and I can’t show any proof . But you all know deep down whether what happened was truly a murder attempt . You three must be in the same party, right? Then, there’s no need to question this healer’s character . We all know through the buffs and debuffs on this a.s.sa.s.sin now . He thought you were being chased by a mob of monsters, so he threw a Haste at you . It should still be there . If he was a bad person, why would he help you?” Robin had calmed down . LuckyCat and he were ranged attackers . They’re not suited to battle in such close quarters . Everyone’s cooldowns were still ticking . Perhaps he can dig out something about the other side, especially that despicable masked a.s.sa.s.sin .

“How would I know why he’d help me? Maybe he was shocked,” Nightmare-Demon retorted .

“Tch . Stop pretending to be a good guy . You just want to look good before the healer . ” Snow hated healers . So what? Why should everyone be kind and bow down before him?

Robin coldly stared at the wizard with squinted eyes .

“W-What do you want? A fight?” Shivers ran down Snow’s spine from Robin’s gaze . “Hmph . I’m warning you . Don’t even think about concocting some sort of scheme or you’ll never be able to step foot on Serica’s lands . ”

“Oh? I’m really curious . Just what powers do you have to stop me from stepping foot near Serica?” Robin found this woman’s immaturity laughable . She’s not a GM . What right did she have to restrict his movements? Even if she was a GM, he can just complain to the game company .

“Don’t you know which guild they belong to? Let me tell you . They’re part of Angel Wings . Cross the Wings and the only fate awaiting you is getting killed all the way back down to Level 1,” Snow boasted . Serica was the Angel Wings’ base . This was an open secret after so many Guild Wars . After all, Seric1 and Seric2 were conquered by the Wings . However, IndomitableBattle and Nightmare-Demon were part of the subsidiary guild . Their levels weren’t high enough to enter the parent guild .

IndomitableBattle frowned . He didn’t like people using the Wings’ name to suppress other players .

“Oh, I’m really scared . ” Robin didn’t get angry like Snow expected . Instead, he laughed . So this a.s.sa.s.sin was part of the Wings . While they’re a major guild, he wasn’t scared at all . The Heretic Demons who had his back weren’t a guild to be trifled with either, though he had no plans of letting these ignoramuses know that .

“Afraid, aren’t you? Then, scram . ”

“Let’s head back to the city and leave these puffed up foxes to their own devices,” Robin said to XiaoYu who then nodded back .

“You…!” Before Snow could throw a fit again, two bright beams flashed by . With no one to yell at, she stomped her feet in anger .

IndomitableBattle never said a word throughout the whole exchange . From the unexpected Haste buff on Nightmare-Demon, he knew this healer was definitely not the selfish and c.o.c.ky person Snow described . There must’ve been a misunderstanding .

“I’m sorry . Your eagle…” As soon as they were back in the city, XiaoYu began apologising to Robin .

“It’s fine . I’ll just go buy another,” Robin replied .

“I’ll pay . ”

“There’s no need . It doesn’t cost much . ”

“No way . If you hadn’t saved me, your eagle wouldn’t have…I’ll pay,” XiaoYu insisted .

“Ugh…okay . ” Robin was surprised at how stubborn XiaoYu could be . He thought this kid would always be gentle, meek and slightly weak .

The two went to the Hunters Hall and bought an eagle . Then, they were lost on what they should do next .

“Are you going to keep grinding, Lucky? Let’s party up and grind at the Rebellion Base . ” It was rare that he had free time . He was going to try his luck at the Jiangshi Cave . The high-level Jiangshi drop a Health Increase charm . Since there were annoying people blocking the way, why not change spots?

“Okay . ” XiaoYu immediately agreed at the thought of his lucky charm effect when in a party . It’d be great if he could get some amazing drops to thank Robin for rescuing him .
