1 Prologue: The Healer

In the outskirt of Town of Swords located in the western side of the Kingdom of Aresian a vast grassland in the town where it was terrorized by the territorial ogres and now the mayor of the town held a subjugation quest to exterminate them.

The day was bright there was almost no cloud in the sky the sun was staring at us. It's noontime and I'm watching my friends fighting a big bunch of ogres. This was 'their' quest and they needed to finish it before sunset. I was supposed to be part of this subjugation quest, but since I'm not capable of defeating such monsters as ogres.

I'm watching one of my friends, Gwendlyn she's charging one of the ogres using her sword. 'Hiyah!' she shouted as her sword sliced and pierced the body of the ogre. The ogre cried in pain before it dies from blood loss.

'She's quite energetic today..'

Gwendlyn was born in a noble family of the kingdom which is the 'Adelaide' family. Their family was known for their classes as knights and swordsmen and their family was a top tier in that class. Gwendlyn was born as a battlemage it was considered a rare class because as far as I remember she told me that there are only four-person in their family who were born as a battlemage.

She's fast and strong physically making her a good fighter in the field since she was thought of using the mastery of sword and combining magic as a child. Resulting in the current Gwen that I'm looking at right now dashing in the ogres while smiling her sword emitting a blue light meaning that it was imbued with mana.

She's getting stronger day by day... I'm quite jealous but I'm used to it...

She suddenly stopped from dashing then I saw her change her stance where she pointed her sword in the sky.

Is she going to use her magic?

The mana from her sword move to the very point of her sword. I admit that I'm a little bit excited since this will be the 2nd time that I will see her magic.

''Air stance: Wind storm!!'' she shouted. Suddenly the wind in the sky spinning forming into a tornado as the endpoint of the tornado touch the point of her sword she looked at me with a smug on her face.

''Holy---'' before I finished my word I run as fast I could to avoid the tornado that she's going to swing. When I look back I saw her swing her sword at the ogres 'HAAAAAA!' she shouted as her sword with a tornado hit multiple ogres at the same time.

I will pray that will avoid that attack no matter what... When the tornado disappears from her sword you could see the damage from her attack a lot of ogres dies lying on the devastated ground. Even some of the trees blew off even though the trees were a little bit far from her.

Suddenly the ground shakes for a moment and I looked where it coming from... Roi Maynard.

A 7ft tall muscular brown guy holding a large two-handed metallic hammer from the look of his weapon is made from a special metallic alloy that could only be found in the kingdom. Maynard's family is also a well-known family in the kingdom their family was considered as one of the builders of the empire, but Roi was different he was the opposite of his family. He was born as a Marauder class a class that specified as a destructor. He used his hammer for destroying and bashing his enemy that is why most of the dead ogres that we will see in the ground its either squashed to death or pounded by the hammer.

At the young age of 16, both of them are already a 2nd rate class... I suddenly looked at my wooden staff. I was born as a 5th rate class which is a healer in the noble family of a swordsman. These two will soon be high-ranking officials in the kingdom and I will only be a disappointment not only in the kingdom but also in my family as well.

''HEYY!!! MARVISS!!'' I looked at them when I heard Gwen shouting at me. They already finished the subjugation quest these two are the new prodigy of this kingdom, huh.

They were walking towards me since they collected enough parts of the ogres as proof of their killing. I smiled at them awkwardly ''How's the quest?''

''As you can see we finished it before dawn,'' Gwen replied. ''And how are you going to finished the quest if you did not even fight?'' She let out a chuckle while looking at me.

'She already knows the reason 'why' and yet she's still asking.'

Roi suddenly taps Gwen's head. ''Stop teasing him. You already knew that this man is not a capable fighter.'' he sounds a little bit sleepy, I guess he was a little bit bored from fighting those 'weak' ogres.

''The subjugation quest was finished. Around 103 invasive ogres were dead and this will act as proof.'' She suddenly showed me a leather bag that full of bloody ears, noses, and eyes of the ogres.

''Wow! Congratulations on both of you! Not only you will get the rewards but with these, it's your reputation will go up too!'' I happily said to them.

Gwen fixed herself tying her blue hair and fixing her light-plated armor. While Roi was just standing and yawning then he looked at me his eyes were deadly serious.

''Why did you even come if you're going to stand and watch us.'' He suddenly said.

Gwen even looks at me. They already knew the answer why are they keep asking the same question?

I'm just a healer a class that is not very useful on a battlefield. I can't even kill a goblin!

''I-I was going to help both of you by h-healing but---''

''We do not need your heal.'' Roi suddenly said. ''We do not care about your healing magic Marvis. What we care about is how you will learn how to fight if you keep avoiding it.'' this time I cannot tell if he was mad or disappointed.

As a healer and hearing the word 'do not care' on my healing magic was a little bit hurtful inside. That is the only thing that I'm a little bit proud of that I have 'healing magic' i have free healing.

I don't know what to reply to Roi. He suddenly scoffs and starts walking back towards the capital of the kingdom. I looked at Gwen she was half-smiling at me.

''Don't worry, Marvis.''

''I-I'm sorry...'' I bow my head in front of her. She suddenly lifted my head and I saw her smiled brightly.

''Roi is mad that you did not even try fighting those ogres. He was a little bit worried about your future. You already know that healer class has no future in this kingdom.'' I could tell that she was worried about me.

She was right both of them right. I have no future in this place and yet here I am still staying here to see them become successful. This kingdom resent people who use healing magic calling them weak and useless. I'm pretending to be a 5th rate mage and only my family and these two are the only people who knew that I'm a healer.

''I'll try my best next time...'' I said to her. She let out a sigh and smiled at me.

''I and Roi need to go back to the capitol to report the situation about the invasive ogres. Take care, Marvis.'' She runs to Roi and waved back at me as a 'goodbye'. Even Roi waved his hand without looking back at me.

I waved back at them and watch them disappear before walking back to the town of swords. I was secretly disowned by my family when I was five where the kids know what class they were born. When my parents found out that my class is a healer they did not even think twice to abandon me. They thought that I was a big mistake in the bloodline of 'Asharion' i was a little bit lucky when my grandparents took me secretly.

'healer class has no future in this kingdom' I keep hearing this word in my head. I have no idea if I was the problem or The kingdom that I was born in. The Kingdom of war Aresian was recognized for its astonishing military prowess even the current King today was classified as one of the powerful people around the continent. My grandfather told me the before the current king the last king was defeated in a war against the continent of the Holy land of Apollon. After that war, the hatred and despise of the healer-related class started I remember my grandpa said that 'the healer class was a traitor in the kingdom'.

The main reason that I was disowned because it might ruin the reputation of my family. Being the descendants of the great general and the right hand of the king which is my late grandfather and the current great general is my father that is enough reason to disowned me. My grandparents forbid me from using my real name that is why they changed it to 'Marvis Furlock' a very common mage name.

When I entered the town of swords the town was crowded as always. The town of swords is the main market of the kingdom that is why hundreds of different vendors here.

'There is a lot of people this day...' I let out a sigh before walking to my house. A lot of vendors start shouting:

''Buy some fresh Cheesecake!''

''New forged item is on sale!''

''Trading house is soon to be open, please fall in line!!''

''get a useful slave for 10 gold only!'

The town was so busy that it starts to stress me since people are keep coming in my direction and I accidentally collide with them. A large man suddenly appears out of nowhere he was a little bit big and I was worried--

''argh...!'' I fell down so hard because of that man! The large man looked at me.

''Watch out where you going! Imbecile!'' he cursed at me. The other people with him laugh at me as they walk away. I just rolled my eye and stood up and cleaning my robe before walking to the Inn. I looked at the window and it was a little bit busy a lot of customers today huh. When I opened the door, I suddenly saw Old Man Yop the owner of the Inn his wiping the floor with a map.

''Good afternoon, Mister Yop.'' I greeted him.

''Ah-- Marvis, I have an important letter for you.'' Old Man Yop suddenly said he grabbed on her pocket and I saw it let out blue light. Old Man Yop was a former mage in the kingdom but his dream to run an Inn which he achieved with a help of my grandparents.

''Your grandma sent this to me, and she told me that give it to you.'' Old-man Yop told me held my hand as he gave the letter.

I smiled at him ''Thanks, Mister Yop.''

''Such a good boy. Tell me Marvis if you want to eat something I'll let our chef cook some food for you, kay?'' his blue eyes look at me with happiness and I just nod as an answer to his offer.

I let out a waved before walking up to the stairs when I reached the second floor of the in which is the 'Quarters for Dansel' I heard a moaned on a room... A lot of them...

''I think Ms. Dansel is quite busy today too, huh,'' I muttered.

I walk up to the stairs where the floor for the employee only. I walked towards my room and opened the door and locked it. I suddenly remove the robe that I'm wearing it was a little bit hot and I'm sweating for an hour. I wear a leather shirt and sat on the nearest wooden chair.

I let out a big sigh ''Finally home...'' I closed my eyes for a moment. ''Why am I exhausted? I did not even fight...'' I stood up and grab the Scroll of wisdom and a needle. I used the needle to cut from my finger enough to make it bleed and let it drop in the scroll of wisdom.

The scroll glows for a moment and it stops. Am I ready to see my status? I'm a little bit afraid. I let out a sigh before opening the scroll:

[ Name: Sivmar Asharion

Class: Healer (E)

Stats:

Str: 26

Dex: 15

Int: 25

Agi: 19

Skills:

Healing wave

-A healing spell that emits light waves can heal multiple people. It only heals small bruises and light wounds.

Holy Light

- A spell that can be only cast on one person healed deeper wounds and remove minor negative buff on the body. It also deals with small damage on an undead enemy.]

I remember seeing Roi and Gwen scrolls last year. Roi's strength and dexterity were 102 and 104. While Gwen's intelligence and Agility were around 100 too and the rest of their status was 80 and above. Thinking about their status doesn't help me to feel better the only thing that increased on my status compared to the last time was my intelligence it was 24 the last I checked my status.

''Maybe I'm the biggest failure in the kingdom...'' I let out a little laugh. I suddenly think if this is the reason why my family disowned me by seeing this status it's enough to make your parents cry in disappointment.

I suddenly remembered the letter that my grandma gave to me. I grabbed the letter from the pocket of my robe which is hanging in the closet. I opened the envelope and I saw a tiny white stone when I grab the stone I suddenly realize that this is a necklace...

''A gift from my grandma, huh?'' I smiled. I wore it and suddenly my body feels good. I guess this is what they called a warm love.

Then lastly, I grabbed the letter inside.

I opened the letter and the first thing I saw is my grandma's cursive writing:

'Marvis,

I am sad to say that your grandfather Arvin passed away last week. I am sorry that you cannot attend the funeral, but your grandfather wanted me to give you the lucky necklace. He said that someday you will become a renowned healer that will cleanse the sins of this land. I also knew that you were a blessing from the family, my and your grandfather knew that. Do not worry, I will still be helping you and provide your basic needs. I knew that this will be hard for you but remember I will still be here, protecting and praying for your success. Take care and I will pray on the goddess for your safety.

-Grandma Ellice'

The tears won't stop falling when I read the part of my grandfather died. The last time that I saw him was last year before the day of my birthday. I want to go there but if I do that all the hardship that they did to protect will be nothing.

''How lucky am I that my grandparents still call me a 'Blessing' ''

I want to be strong.

Strong enough to be respected.

I will prove to my family that I'm not a disappointment, but it would be impossible to that here. The Kingdom is for the people who were born as a warrior.

I'll travel to the continent of the Apollon to become a renowned healer.

And I will show them...

To my family...

To the Kingdom...

That I will come back and rise as a healer.
