Chapter 62 62 Killed

The paladin class was extremely powerful in melee combat but they were also extremely weak against magic, Max knew this and kept his distance while Gabriel took care of the players.

The healer escaped Gabriel's trap before he could shoot his fireball, but he didn't care about his friends, he couldn't afford to be killed so he ran away.

The healer focused on running away without looking backward but suddenly a fist appeared in front of him, before the fist made contact with his face he saw the figure of a human.

When the group was arguing with themselves Alex already wore his hood back on and slowly he vanished like he wasn't there, and then the healer who was focused on running away from death forgot that someone like Alex was close to the path he took.

*Bam*

Alex's fist collided with the healer's face and he fell to the ground immediately, the healer grunted from the pain he felt and Alex knew his strength had increased, the increase in strength paid off.

The players couldn't move as Gabriel rained fire upon them till they all turned into pixels and faded away, Gabriel immediately slumped to the ground from exhaustion of casting too many spells.

His breathing was heavy and his face was covered in sweat as he lay on the ground with a smile on his face, he leveled up and was now in level 7, slowly he was catching up to Alex.

"Gabriel, you didn't leave anyone for me" Max fumed in anger.

"I'm sorry, I couldn't stop, and one of them escaped, didn't you see him?" Gabriel asked.

They were four players but he only received XP for killing three of them meaning one of them got away.

"It's the healer, I caught him," Alex said as he dragged the body of the healer.

"Did you kill him, ohhh... he's not dead, I'll be the one to kill him" Max said.

"Hey Gabriel, try if you can use this," Alex said and handed him the healer's healing cane, it was a green stick that heals HP if used by a healer.

Gabriel took the healing cane but a notification came up.

[Not compatible with your class]

"It didn't work, I think only the healing unit would be able to use this," Gabriel said.

"Please don't kill me, I can join you, I would be of use to you guys, with me around none of you would be killed" the healer pleaded still on the ground.

*Slash*

Max immediately slashed the head of the healer and the blood sprayed on the three of them, Alex and Gabriel quickly looked towards him with surprise.

"You guys got your kill, it's my turn," Max said as the body of the healer slowly faded away along with the blood that stained their clothes.

"But you were the one that said we shouldn't attack players, but you just killed that healer ruthlessly" Gabriel smiled.

"The healer didn't have much on him, a complete newbie" Max sneered.

"We should be on our way," Alex suggested and the two of them kept their weapons back in their inventory, Gabriel was a mage so he had no weapon.

The three of them walked forward and continued on their quest.

"Haaa...those bastards" a young boy shouted as he took his helmet off his head and smashed it on the ground.

He was the marksman that was killed in Gabriel's flames.

"Now I have to buy another helmet, Thundermage right... I'm going to buy another helmet just for you, I'm going to hunt you till you are erased from Nova Online" the boy shouted.

"Bro what happened?" a voice shouted from outside the boy's room.

"The door is opened," the boy said weakly and sat on his bed, the door to his room opened and his younger brother stepped in.

"Were you killed, you already smashed your helmet" the boy said in shock.

"I was killed and my account was terminated, the game was telling me to try harder next time, I'm going to kill those bastards" the boy gritted his teeth angrily.

"I was also killed by that bastard player named Reaper...now I can't log in for a week, I'm going to hunt him down," the younger brother said.

"At least you don't have to buy another helmet, and the guy that killed you was a level 12 player, I don't know what he was doing in that forest and he was an assassin, I'm going to choose the assassin class next"

"Really...where are you going to find $1000 to buy another VR helmet?" the younger brother asked.

"Don't worry... I'm going to Peter's house, that bastard wanted to betray us so he wouldn't get killed, I'm going to beat his ass out" the boy said and dashed out of his room.

[You have been killed by Maximus]

[Thank you for playing, try harder next time]

"Arrr shit...I thought they would allow me to join their group, fuck healer... I'm never going to choose that fucking class again" the healer that was killed by Max took his helmet off his head and sighed heavily.

'It's all their fault, telling me to choose the healer class so our group would be perfect, two long-range attackers and two close-range fighters, then he was forced to be a healer for their group.

He was currently on his bed and he knew his friends would shout at him for trying to betray them but he had a good excuse.

'Why am I afraid of them, they are the cause of our failure, if only they would listen to me and stay at the newbie village till we are all level 5 but they never listen'
