Chapter 45: - Legendary Novice
Broken confirmed the plan with the team. "What do you guys think?"
RememberMe confidently strode up to Broken. "Master," he said with an air of optimism, "I think we can handle beating level 90 monsters. After all, we managed to take down a rare level 80 monster a few days ago."
"No," Forev replied firmly. "That level 90 monster is the weakest we'll likely encounter. Even though we can take down one to five level 90 monsters, it doesn't mean we can keep going if dozens of monsters of the same level or higher attack us."
"Master Broken," RememberMe chirped, his face aglow with a wide smile, "he will be at his best if he is faced with a tough situation. That's what I'm trying to say, you know?!"
PussyCat sighed in disbelief at RememberMe's ridiculous response. "We don't have any healers with us! And if one of us dies, the going will get even tougher."
"I brought a lot of healing potions, hahaha," RememberMe replied, "You don't need to worry that much."
"There is a limitation to using healing potions," Forev answered, emphasizing her point. "You dumbass! Can you remove that tiny bit of foolishness from your brain and think more logically?"
PussyCat had had enough. "Why don't we ask Broken to decide for himself?" she said before turning to him.
Broken slowly nodded and took a deep breath. "I think it's best for us to take the safer path. Even so, it will be a challenge for us since the monsters here are usually above our level. We'll probably be here for a long time, maybe even a week, or more I'm not sure. But if we manage to level up enough, we can try a more difficult route on our way back," he suggested.
"Okay, let's do it!" RememberMe quickly agreed. Without further hesitation, he began striding swiftly along the route that Broken had indicated.

"He can easily accept Broken's suggestion? What's going on in his mind?" Forev asked PussyCat incredulously.
"Like, we just met him? He is always like that, right?" PussyCat responded with a grin.
"Yes, he usually goes along with things without much thought."
Broken led the way, his eyes scanning the dense forest ahead. The trees stood tall and close together, their branches creating a thick canopy that allowed only specks of sunlight to filter through. The path was narrow and winding, making it difficult to see very far ahead.
As they walked, the sounds of the forest surrounded them. Birds chirped high in the trees, their songs mingling with the rustling of leaves, suggesting small creatures moving about. The air was cool and fresh, carrying the scent of earth and foliage, invigorating their senses.
The group moved cautiously, their senses heightened by the knowledge that danger could be lurking anywhere. Each step they took was deliberate, their eyes and ears alert for any signs of monsters. The tension in the air was palpable as they navigated the narrow, winding path through the dense forest.
RememberMe, despite his usual carefree attitude, seemed to be taking the situation seriously. He kept his weapon ready, his eyes scanning the surroundings with a focused intensity. His usual jokes were replaced with a stern, vigilant demeanor. PussyCat walked just behind him, her staff held firmly in her hand, ready to cast spells at a moment's notice. The light from her staff occasionally flickered, casting eerie shadows on the trees. Forev brought up the rear, her bow at the ready, an arrow already nocked and prepared to be drawn.
They walked cautiously through the trees, keeping as close together as they could. Utilizing Forev's spirit beast hawk, they tried to take the path of least resistance, avoiding monsters as much as possible. The hawk soared above, its keen eyes spotting potential threats from a distance. Though they weren't able to avoid all the monsters, some creatures attacked from every direction. Thankfully, these were only low-level creatures, no higher than level 50.
When a group of monsters approached, Forev nimbly leaped from tree to tree. She quickly fired warning arrows in their direction, her aim precise and deadly. RememberMe and Broken periodically shifted positions, with one taking the frontline to fight while the other stayed close to PussyCat, the biggest source of damage in the team with her area attacks.
After they vanquished the monsters, which were shaped like rabbits but sized like wild boars, a variety of multicolored objects were strewn across the ground. The sight of the fallen creatures and their scattered loot brought a sense of relief and accomplishment to the group.

"See!" RememberMe exclaimed breathlessly as he approached Broken, gesturing excitedly. "Can you see that? Why is it that every time Broken lands the last hit on those monsters, the rewards that drop seem to be multiplied? I'm sure luck has nothing to do with it! It surely is a cheat! Or Divine Blessing?! Could he be a Divine Champion?! Like a Greed Champion?!"
"There is no one named Broken among the Greed Champions!" Forev replied firmly.
"I think our bad luck happens just because you were at this party, RememberMe," PussyCat chuckled in reply.
They continued on, maintaining their formation and swiftly eliminating any monsters they encountered. When Broken got hurt in some monster encounters, he quickly healed himself using his "Healing Touch" ability.
[Healing Touch (Active Skill) Lv. 1]
"See!" RememberMe exclaimed breathlessly as he approached Broken again, gesturing excitedly. "Can you see that? He's not only good with a sword, but he has healing skills too. This is so unrealistic! I bet he's hiding something, a very big secret!"
"I think you're the only one who hasn't encountered many players in Immortal Legacy," PussyCat interjected. "There are many classes in this game. It's not strange for a swordsman to have healing skills."
"Do you think only specialist healers have healing skills?" Forev asked, turning towards Broken. "Even novices have healing skills. However, it appears that the healing skill you used is similar to a novice's First Aid, only better than that? Could it be that you are a kind of Advanced Novice?"
"Legendary Novice, maybe?" RememberMe quipped, laughing lightly.
