Healers Shouldn't be this Powerful

But that was not in his mind right now. The beast that terrorised many and killed hundreds was down for the count, its head swiftly cut from the base of its head. And the one responsible for it was nowhere to be seen.

The beast’s body was left there, but upon closer look, he noticed a gaping hole done on the beast’s chest. ’She probably took down the beast and took out the heart in one swift move. She made sure to take down the beast as soon as she arrived making sure she doesn’t fall under its crowd control skill... as always, she’s a monster!’

Niklaus’s thoughts were interrupted by the screams that picked up as soon as the beast went down. Some were kneeling down, clutching the dried up skins. Looks like it’s their loved ones.

Soon sirens could be heard coming not far from there. Emergency vehicles could be seen hovering not far from here. A digital yellow caution tape has already been erected around the area the incident took place.

The city has implemented an AI, that’s able to use emergency infrastructure, so that situations could be quickly managed as soon as they happen and personnel don’t need to worry about clearing the area as soon as they arrive.

A vibration came on his smart watch. As soon as he looked at it, a beam of light went right into his eyes, quickly he saw a screen projected right into his eyes.

[It has been detected that you were a victim of an incident, please answer the following questions so that personnel could understand your situation as soon as they arrive]

He saw a questionnaire, on the side it showed his heart reading and his pupil dilation, he quickly answered the questionnaire, soon he was let go by the AI. His case didn’t need immediate response.

Though it did leave an advice to see a professional if he experiences something. Niklaus couldn’t care about that right now. Today was the day he will finally awaken.

When he saw Matilda take down a beast that could easily kill him, he felt something stirred in him.The moment he resigned to his fate, the last strand of fear loosened in him.

The moment he welcomed death, It felt as though chains broke, liberating him .

As he walked away , he looked back one more time. Looking at the remains of the One eyed Hermit.

’Some people are rich, even if its one of the lower monsters, its parts could fetch a pretty penny’ he could only sigh at this sight. As someone in desperate need of money.

He saw this as a challenge to his pride. Reluctantly he left, soon he saw the gates of the military institution.

He quickly went in and went straight to his homeroom. As a new student who transferred here not long ago. He wasn’t familiar with anyone.

"Hey did you hear?"

"What?"

"They say a Beast somehow broke through the disrupters in the city and opened a gate in the city!"

"Whaaat!! Are you sure about this? You are not pulling my leg right?"

As Niklaus went to his seat, he heard some boys around the corner, sat in a group and talking about what happened earlier. ’News sure goes around quick’

" I’m not, they say hundreds of people died just by the swing of its weapon"

"Damn, that’s brutal, which beast was it?"

The conversation was getting so heated that many in the class started paying attention to what was being said.

"It was a One eyed Hermit, it looked like it was about to break through the 10 level mark"

Gasp!

The entire class was shocked by this revelation.

Who could blame them? They were normal humans. Even a level 1 beast could quickly take them down without breaking a sweat. But as military students, they had a chance to stand up for themselves.

As they were talking, someone walked in the classroom. The entire class’s attention was on the boys’ conversation to care. But as soon as they heard a chair move, they quickly changed their attention.

The quite mysterious girl in the class had walked in, She always kept to herself. You could see longing in the boys’ while the girls looked at her with admiration in their eyes,

Suddenly she turned her body and looked behind her. Niklaus, just like all the boys in the class, was infatuated by the cold quiet goddess. But today, as though the God he didn’t believe in answering his prayers.

She looked at him, her mat black eyes, looking like a lifeless doll, he took a moment to appreciate her, fair smooth skin, small nose and lips he could only dream about tasting. Despite her cold exterior.

Looking at her face, you would swear you were looking at an innocent weak girl, she had a touch of cute and gorgeous face with a hint of maturity. "Are you Ok?"

Her words hung in the silence, her melodious voice sounded out in a class full of students but the silence could fool one into thinking she was talking in an empty classroom.

Everyone couldn’t believe it, the ever quiet, never saying anything girl actually said something, and her voice, they hung to every syllable like a gourmet savoring their food.

’Her voice is as enchanting as I thought, no, more than I thought.’ Niklaus didn’t realise the awkward silence that hung between him and Matilda. Soon he realised that he wasn’t imagining it. This was actually real.

Matilda was actually talking to him. "Ahem! Y.. Yes thank you for saving my life, if it wasn’t for you, I won’t be here today"

....

"Hey, didn’t they say the incident happened in Sector C Block three?" Soon someone realised, and quickly took out their phones.

After some few taps this eyes widened. "Hey it did, I think that’s where Niklaus lives!" As soon as those words fell. The entire class was shocked..

"Ok.. Ok... enough with the noi..." The homeroom teacher came, ready to silence the rowdy class but he was met with mystified looks trained at Niklaus.
