《Survival of a healer》Chapter 12 Sewer
Advertisement
Kevin looked at the dark sewer entrance with sceptical eyes .
"Is this only a sewer ? Doesn't this looks like a dark maze ?" asked Kevin
"Well is a dark maze , but people throw their feces into it thus creating soil for plants ." answered a male voice .
"Then why is your race always at war ?" Kevin asked a middle aged man with mouse ears .
"Because every sewer is connected after they became dungeon . You can imagine it like a huge underground maze filled with treasures and strong monsters . Since mice and rats once lived there we as their more intelligent representatives have to fight for it ." replied the man with mouse ears .
"Okay , so i have to walk in it to kill some enemy mice and rat monsters ?" questioned Kevin .
"Yes , you are right . But you won't fight alone . You will fight with two giant rats . Your duty is it to kill as much enemy rats and mice as possible . They have amazing reproducing speed . Not like normal rats and mice ." replied the mouse man while commanding rats at the size of dogs to follow Kevin .
"Good luck , be careful and don't die there !" warned the mouse man while sending Kevin into the entrance of the sewer .
Walking into darkness Kevins eyes slowly adjusted to the darkness , the two giant rats following him .
Carrying his spear and wooden shield Kevin walked deeper into the maze . His eyes always gazing on the giant rats . He isn't sure if they would guide him out like Adam and the rest described .
Going on for almost 5 minutes Kevin could see the his path splitting into two ways . Randomly picking one Kevin walked into it , the two rats silently following him .
At the end of the path Kevin stepped down stairs to finally enter the sewer .
"This is not a sewer , this is a godamn undeground maze !" Kevin cursed inwardly as he met his first enemys .
Two rats at the size of cats charged towards Kevin . His Ally Rats stopped the rats while Kevin helped one rat to kill the Giant rat .
It would be almost impossible to distinguish between the ally rat and the enemy rat since bot looked identical .
However on top of the enemy floated the HP bar as well as the monster name .
[Giant Rat lv 5]
[ HP : 50/50 ]
Trying to stab the rat , Kevin stepped in a solid position , prepared his shield for counter attacks and stabbed .
*Thonk* spear meets ground .
It missed since the rat easily dodged .

Squiking the giant rat charged towards Kevin .
Everything happened in the blink of an eye , thus Kevin could only lift his shield before getting tackled by the rat .
The rat smashed against his shield .
"AAAAAARGH !" with roar Kevin smashed his shield against the ground . Looking at the stunned rat under it Kevin stabbed the rat again .
[ -37 ]
One stab caused the rat to squik in agony .
But Kevin didn't panicked , he stabbed again thus killing the rat .
Looking how the corpse of the rat dissipated and the remaining bloody scene Kevin couldn't but feel unwell .
It is true that he witnessed how boars got killed but he never killed one . Even if he's used to bloody scene , creating one is completely different from witnessing one .
It wasn't a bad feeling , it was more like the previous Kevin tried to convince the new Kevin that what he do is bad .
However Kevin ignored the feeling and smiled . Yes , he smiled .
He killed his prey , and it felt so good !
Looking at his spoils of war Kevin looked at the system Message :
[ Loot : ]
[ Giant Rat Tail 2x ]
[ Experience : 400 Exp ]
Just as Kevin wanted to inquire why he got two tails instead of one he looked at the other rat which got killed by his ally rats .
Because they got wounded he healed them with [Lowermost Heal] . Since he tried his heal for the first time he pointed at the rats and used [Lowermost Heal] .
With no effect . Only a shiny palm .
Looking at his shiny palm then at the rats Kevin touched one of the rats with his shiny palms .
[ +3 ]
Since the heal only costed 2 mana Kevin spammed heal on each rat ten times . After all he didn't wanted them to die . Besides it is easy to touch them while they don't fight . Since Kevin could only cast the buff from a distance and has to touch them to use his shiny palm for healing he didn't used [Lowermost Heal] often .
Looking at his Mana bar Kevin tried to find out his mana regeneration .
[ 40/120 ]
.... after waiting for few minutes Kevin sighed , later he will ask Adam . Since the number didn't changed .
Resuming his Path Kevin casually picked his way through the maze . Because Kevin healed the rats they got quite attached to him .
Since they looked so big Kevin felt like he got two loyal doggies on his side .
Encountering two more rats Kevin finished them quickly . Since he got experience from the former rat he attacked with a calm mind and blocked every attack with his shield .

Even if it is the fighting style of a chicken Kevin didn't feel bad . It is for his survival so why should he care about how other look at him .
The day passed rather peacefully . Finishing more than twenty rats Kevin stopped his hunting in the sewer .
He even graded the rats between easy , normal and hard . Since the Level of the rats varied between 5 and 10 Kevin got a huge amount of fighting experience .
Hugging both of his ally rats Kevin softly asked : "I want to go home . Can you show me the way ?"
He felt like an idiot , but that is what Adam as well as the mice man said : "Ask the rats nicely that you want to go home and they will lead you ."
As if the rats understood what Kevin said both of them walked in the direction where Kevin came from .
Following the rats Kevin encounted some rats , but finished them quickly with the help of his ally rats . None of the rats attack in groups of more than 3 though .
Healing the Rats like usual a System message appeared .
[ Gratulation Player Kevin ]
[ [Lowermost Heal] reached 100% Mastery ]
[ Changed to [Low Heal] ]
[ Low Heal , more mana , same healing ability . Allow People to heal withing a small range . ]
Kevin looked at the skill description . Does that mean he can heal people with a range between them ? That is quite amazing !
Calling his status forward Kevin analyzed this character with his gaming experience .
[Kevin - lv 9 ( 183 400 / 872 000) ]
[Recruit , Born to Support ]
[Pets : Bear Amy(Hibernation) ]
[Abilitys : Inventory , Alchemist Apprentice(0)]
HP: 50/50 Amyshield (0/0)
MP: 120/120
[STR: 9][AGI: 9][VIT: 9][INT: 61][WIS: 40]
[ P-DEF: 10 ] [ M-DEF: 0 ]
Current Party ( 1 Trust )
[Skills : ]
[Low Heal] [ mpc 10 / 5% wis+int / 0% ] + 2x effect from Title
[ Lesser Cure ] [ mpc 10 / 0% ]
[ Lowermost Buff ] [ mpc 10 / 5% str+dex+vit / 97% / Dur. : 5min ] + 2x effect from Title
[ Lowermost Light ] [ mpc 5-1ps / 10% x 2int x element / 9% ]
[Alchemist Apprentice + 20 INT + 10 WIS ]
Kevin mumbled : "I got attack skills and support skills . The only problem i have is that my max HP is quite low . And i don't know what to do when my MP reaches 0 ."
Looking at his MP bar Kevin could see that his MP didn't drained to 0 even as he healed the rats after they fought . He didn't healed them 10x like the first . Often only once of twice .
But his MP is still more than half of the maximum .
[ 70 / 120 ]
Since he has no idear how his MP regeneration works Kevin decided to spam his [ Lowermost Buff ] on him and the rats . Since he could end the buff whenever he wanted Kevin stopped the buff and spammed his Buff seven times .
Resulting in another System Message :
[ Gratulation Player Kevin . ]
[ [Lowermost Buff] reached 100% Mastery ]
[ Changed to [Low Buff] ]
[ Low Buff , more duration , more buffing and more mana cost ]
[ Low Buff ] [ mpc 20 / 15% str+dex+vit / 0% / Dur. : 10min ] + 2x effect from Title
Staring flabbergasted at the new buff Kevin felt an excited feeling in his heart .
With this title that is almost 50% of STR , DEX and VIT . That is almost like a cheat skill like in those novels !
Kevin thinked what would happen if he casted this buff on the melee fighter within his party , the Pride knights .
Dancing a small victory dance Kevin laughed . It may be true that stats like INT or WIS don't get buffed but the strongest member in his party are Adam or Mark , both are fighers . Even An and En can use this buff since they are phyisical ranged fighters .
With a big grin Kevin followed the rats while thinking when his buff would be able to reach the limit . Maybe 300% ? Or perhaps even 1000% ?
Without even realizing it Kevin walked out of the underground sewer . Only the voice of the voice man awaked Kevin from his day dream .
"How was it ?"
"It was pretty difficult at first , but as soon as i got the hang out of it was pretty easy to kill those giant rats ." replied Kevin with a smile .
"Hoho , nice that you liked it . Your party leader Adam asked me to pass a message to you . You have to come home before midnight since they will discuss something ." laughed the mice man while caressing the two rats Kevin took with him .
"Thanks ." said Kevin while rushing towards the outskirt of the city . The sunset dived the entire town in a red light .

Ars Magica
Our vision comes back into focus. Our eyes, while being able to perceive the immediate surroundings, still leave us with our minds uncomprehending towards what is actually occurring. Sure, there are definitive things that we can focus on, like the fact that we're either out upon the open sea or the open ocean, there not being much of a difference with no land in sight, as well as the fact that we appear to be upon a haphazardly constructed metal boat, whose seams are barely able to keep a hold of themselves in the crashing waves. However, that does not let us understand what exactly is causing the waves in the first place. If we were to rewind time, we'd find ourselves upon a calm sea under a peaceful sky with the only difference, being a small whirlpool that would be the precursor towards this uproar around the boat. Lightning flashes in the sky, with no clouds being near, and anyone actually manning the boat has either died towards the cause of the smashing tides in the first place, or are fighting amongst the flashes of lightning, all while trying not to become devoured, demolished, and utterly decimated by the beast roiling in the whirling waves. To better understand exactly what is happening here, there is one singular event that needs to be understood, that needs to be explained, and that is the arrival of a creature named Dave. Stepping back from current events and going towards this creature's first appearance in the world, we begin to hear the sound of water slowly dripping across rocky ground. The cavern is utterly silent except for this one constant, its cause feeding channels downwards, sloping towards cracks in the rubble along the floor from broken stalagmites and stalactites. And there, lying on top of something which had fallen over recently, judging from its cracks, is a person, the creature named Dave. His form is fast asleep, either from the impact or from an intoxication, judging from the smell upon its breath. A bright light suffuses into it for a second, giving life towards the pale skin, before it slowly dies down back to the comfortable black of the cave that it's within. Before this moment in time, Dave did not exist in the physical world. At least, not in the reality that he finds himself born into. We do not know whether or not his existence is simply a cosmic joke, or something that is being played out on purpose. All that we do know, is that one moment, the body was not in the cave, and simply formed in the next. The actual earliest time that we know Dave exists, is the interpolation of the memories of J-209, which we'll begin looking into shortly to gain context towards the coming narrative that is being written and hastily trying to keep itself written. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: This story has several things which might turn its readers away. The first is that this story has shifting points of perspective. Don't worry about that previous sentence too much though, as the main character will always have a first person perspective associated with them. However, any other character from which we're viewing the story from will either be in third-person, as we are not necessarily in their shoes at the moment, or in first person, given that the narrator is an actual physical presence within the story. For the most part, chapters will be self-contained with their perspectives, so there will not be an abundance of switching perspectives within the same chapter. The most that an average reader would have to worry about is the fact that perspectives can switch between chapters. The second thing is that the main character is a bit on the 'special' side of things. He's not exactly mentally there most of the time, so there will be some times that his personality or his thoughts do not actively align with his actions. The third, and final thing of importance, is the fact that past the first couple of chapters, nothing has been planned in advance. There are arcs and plots that I want to do, want to implement, or have already been set into motion from our main character's introduction to the world, but the method that I use for my story writing and generating leads towards a bit more random chance being enabled. Basically...there's a lot of dice rolling behind the scenes. To not complicate the story further than its regular LitRPG elements, the rolls will not be publicly available. However, there will be knowledge within the author's notes on whether or not there were positive or negative critical rolls that had occurred within the chapter. You have been warned. Updates: Mondays & Fridays (Schedule permitting) Typical Chapter Length: (2,000-3,000)
