"i'm sorry but we already have a magician in our party so we can't accept you," say the person who reject the proposal of applyer, he has a black short hair with a black colour eye.

"you know finding a healer is not an easy job you know, in our guild there only 3 healer, and the 3 of them was taken by a big party," say the woman who was holding a magic staff, she had a curly yellow hair that was reached her shoulder, with a green emerald eye.

"but our party really need a healer you know," say thay person who remember their last mission and how much they have to pay for medical treatment, if they have a healer they can take an ever higher rank mission and not only that they won't have to buy any type of potion or went to the hospital for medical treatment.

"glenn i know that a healer are needed in order to raid the dungeon, but we have to finish our assignment as well," say the bold guy to glenn, he was wearing an armor that cover his body along with a giant axe on his back.

"honestly why do you have to whine so much in the middle of the street, you make me feels embarrassed by just being with you," say the woman beside the bold guy, she has a long black hair that was tie to her back with a black colour eye, she wearing a black tight clothes with 2 dagger in her back.

"why you, you 3 won't understand, unlike you guys that already have a house, i need to pay my rent," whine glenn to them.

"then you should start saving your money, idiot," say the woman with black hair that was ready to statt a fight.

"what did you say, gorilla woman," say glenn who was ready and touch his sword.

"i said idiot, what are you gonna do about it huh," say the woman who was ready to fight as well.

"alright enough, instead of fighting we need to find a job for today, laura can you find a job that give a lot of reward," ask the bald man as the two of them stop.

"yes, please wait, i'm going to look for them," say laura who then went to the guild to find a suitable job.

"excuse me," say stella to them.

"yes, do you have any business with us little miss, ?" ask the baldy to stella.

"yes, my name is stella aubert, i heard that you guys are looking for a healer," say stella who point at herself, "i'm a healer," say stella to them.

"what," shout glenn and the black hair woman at stella remark.

"i though you were a swordman, ?" ask the bald guy to stella.

"yes, i'm a swordman, but i also have some knowledge about using healing magic as well," say stella to them.

"hey guys, i found the job that fit for us," say the woman who just brought the flyer from the guild.

"oh who is this girl, she really cute," say the woman who suddenly hug stella, and stroke her cheek with her own.

"her name is stella auburt, she a healer, she will joining us on a mission for today," say the bald guy to the woman who nod.

"my name is laura kenzy, the black hair man that arguing with the black hair woman is glenn starker and jean swelsen, while the bald guy is our captain his name troy stronghold," say laura to stella who nod to laura.

"my name is stella auburt, is nice to meet you guys," say stella to them.

"by the way laura, what kind of mission did you get, ?" ask gleen.

"this," say laura who hand over the flyer to gleen who look at the reward money.

"alright, we take this," say gleen who then the 5 of them when to caariage that went to their destination.

"by the way what kind of mission that we take, ?" ask stella.

"were going to hunt some monster that recently just attack the village, is not that difficult so you don't have to worry," say laura to stella who hope that she got the part where she will to fight the monster as well.

"all right we're here," say troy who look at the village that was in front of them.

at that time, was they were outside the carriage they quickly go to the village to look at the vilage chief to ask for the information about the monster, on the way, stella look at the people in the village who has a lot of wound, especially some of them was at worse condition where one of the villager doesn't has any arm and leg while lying down at the on floor, panting in pain, hoping that pain will go away.

"what the hell is this, what happen to them," say gleen who look at the wounded villager with an angry expression, troy and laura was the same except that laura was trembling at the sight that she saw.

meanwhile stella look at jean who has a dark expression with her hand cletching into a fist of rage.

"please... kill me...." say the man who lost her arm and leg, the family of the man of was crying, especially a woman who was hugging a little girl.

at that moment, gleen was tempting to do that, since the man look, was in pain, with his hand on his sword, gleen decide to give the man a quick and painless death.

"don't, let me talk to him first," say stella who hold glenn shirt that make gleen look at stella.

"ma'am, do you really want your husband to die, ?" ask stella to the woman.

"i-i dont know, his already in so much pain, i want to help him, by ending his life, but i couldn't, i couldn't kill him, i know is selfish, but i don't want my husband to go," say the woman who was crying even more, while stella only nod before went to the man who was in pain, and give him a little heal on his body, so his body won't feel any pain for a minute or two.

"sir, can you hear me, ?" ask stella.

"y-yes, are y-you the one, w-who ease my p-pain, ?" ask the man who look at stella.

"yes, sir i want you to answer this question, and i don't want to hear any lie on your answer, do you understand," say stella to the man who nod weakly, probably because of his weak body.

"sir, do you truly wish to die, ?" ask stella to the man.

"i... don't know... myself," say the man.

"do you want leave your wife and child and let them become a widow and an orphan, ?" ask stella who harstly say that to the man.

"i don't.. want it... but even.... if i live... i'm just... gonna be a burden... to them... i love... them.... very much.... that why... i don't..... want them... to be sad..." say the man who cough blood, it's look like stella healing power that ease the pain begin to fade away.

at that time the wife of the man start to cry, cause the reason why the man want to be dead, so he wouldn't become a burden to them, with that kind of injuries, there is no way, he can back to his normal self.

"you idiot, i love you, you never been a burden to me, you save me and your child life, it is us who was your burden, so please don't die, and live for us," shout the woman to the man who his tears was coming out from his eye.

"daddy, please don't die, i don't want you to die daddy," say the child who was crying at that time, while the man was on the verge of tears, he don't want his family to have a hard time, so he though by his death, that maybe it can easily ease their burden.

his wife itself is still beautiful, so she can still marry another man, while her child is still a little kid, so maybe that she will not remeber this kind of memory, but seeing that kind of sight, where her wife and child was crying oved him, break his heart, at that time word was coming from his word it was loud, that everyone manage to hear very clearly.

"i...want to live, i want to live, i want to live with my family," say the man to them who then stella only smile while closing her eye that tear in them.

"good answer," say stella who put her hand on the man body, "high heal," and green light suddenly emitting form the man body, when the light go off, everyone saw the man was on his foot, his body was healed with both of his arm and leg are back.

"this is," say the man who touch his body, even though his body was restores to normal, but it feel is unreal, he quickly look at fhe fox girl who just heal him and nod for confirmation while use her gaze to pointed to his wife and children who was shock but happy.

"dear," "dad," say the two of them in union, as they approach the man and hug him.

while everyone has a smile on their face, from the warm of those family.
