A girl wearing a black and white dress entered the tavern with a staff in her hand. She had ivory-colored hair and green eyes. She looked to be in her late teens, but at the same time, she gave off a mature vibe.
She was the one and only player with healer class in the game.
"..."
Zach raised his brows and wondered, 'If she is a healer, then she has to be more than level 10. Which means she must have cleared more floors than me.'
Zach was a little surprised as he never thought he would meet people who could be more skilled than him. However, she could have cleared the floors with someone else's help. Who knows, maybe she was more than just a player?
The girl sat on the empty table in the corner and ordered her food. She ordered pineapple pie and strawberry milkshake.
"..." Zach shrugged his shoulders and thought, 'What's with that order? Is she a kid or what?' He scoffed.
Suddenly, Shay stood up and started walking towards the girl.
"Hey, Shay," Kayden called out to Shay and asked, "Where are you—"
"She is obviously a healer. So I am going to ask her to heal me." Shay answered and walked to the girl.
The girl was enjoying her food with a gentle smile on her face. She was dipping the slices of pineapple pie in the strawberry milkshake and eating it without any second thoughts.
Zach didn't want to judge the girl as he also had a weird habit of mixing up foods. He once ate chips after dipping them into lemon juice. However, seeing the girl eating like that reminded Zach of his little sister— Zoe.
Zach knew it wasn't her at first glance, as Zoe hated games more than he did. And even if there were a slight chance of that girl being Zoe, Zach would have recognized her instantly.
Gods' Impact didn't have many customization options, and all the players looked exactly the same as they looked in the real world.
Shay approached the girl and slammed his hand on her table with a loud bang. He looked at the girl with a frowned face and ordered, "I want you to heal me."
The girl was about to take a bite, but she stopped and looked at Shay from the corner of her eyes. "Can't you see I am busy eating here?"
"I don't care! If I ordered you to heal me, then you have to heal me," Shay asserted with a furious look on his face.
The girl squinted her eyes and waved her hand at Shay. "Get out of my sight. I don't want to heal you."
"What did you say?!" Shay shouted and grabbed the girl's hand.
So far in his life, Shay had gotten everything he wanted. He was born rich. Both his mother and father were busy with their work, so the servants took care of him. He had access to his parent's money, and he could use them however he wanted. Even a few millions were like cents to him and his parents. If he wished for something to happen, it would happen. No one has ever dared to go against his wish, but that wasn't the case now.
He was no longer in the real world, where he could use his parents' names to get away with everything. Nor his status or value mattered. However, he was still rich, so he thought he could get anything he wanted in Gods' Impact as well.
The girl grabbed the glass filled with strawberry milkshake and spilled it all over Shay's face. Then, she pulled her hand from Shay's grasp and uttered, "If you don't know how to request something from someone, then you better stop speaking."
"Zach! Zach!" Kayden whispered violently. "What should we do now? It would be bad if Shay ended up doing something to her."
Zach glanced at the girl and let out a short sigh. Then, he turned to Kayden and replied, "I think it's for the best. Shay needs to learn that not everything belongs to him. He can't be a spoiled brat forever."
The same thing had happened last month. When Zach, Kayden, and Shay were eating food in the restaurant, Shay touched a waitress' butt. The waitress got agitated and slapped Shay on the spot. Unfortunately for her, the restaurant was owned by Shay's family.
She got fired, and her husband also lost his job when his boss got to know about the incident. More than half of the city was under Shay's family control. If they wished for someone to disappear overnight, they would never be seen again.
Everyone feared Shay's family. They were like a mafia of the city, and their influence was spread all across the country. As for how Zach became friends with someone like him, that is the story for another time.
"Do you know who I am?! I am Shay—"
Before Shay could finish his introduction, the girl stood up and walked out of the tavern.
"I have to admit, she has got guts," Kayden remarked as he watched the girl leave.
"Or maybe she is just a Karen," Kayden added with a scoff.
'How...?' Zach thought to himself.
Zach and Kayden walked to Shay and asked him to go to church to get healed. Zach also had to get healed, so the three of them made their way to the church after paying their bill.
On their way, Zach remembered he had forgotten to take his change from the tavern. He wanted to get Shay out from there as soon as possible, and he was also in a hurry to get himself healed.
"Come on. It's just ten bucks. Let it slide," Kayden uttered.
"No, no. I am going back." Zach turned around and said, "You two, go ahead. I will meet you in the church."
However, everything was a lie. Zach wasn't the type of person who would forget anything related to money. He wanted to go back to the tavern to confirm something.
'I don't know what is bothering me, but I want to ask the girl some questions. How did she level up so fast? Even if she played in a mixed dungeon, reaching level 10 is…' Zach sighed and muttered, "It's not impossible since everyone trapped here are gamers who are used to playing games. They are familiar with everything, so it shouldn't be hard. While this is my first time, and I think I am doing pretty well for a newbie.'
"But if there is a better way to level up fast, then I would prefer that."
When Zach reached the store, he saw the girl sitting under the gazebo of the garden, eating cone crepe with a satisfied smile on her face.

Author's Note- Chips dipped into lemon juice... seriously? What is the weirdest food mixture you have ever tried?
Question- Who is that girl?
Zach saw the girl sitting under the gazebo of the garden, eating cone crepe with a satisfied smile on her face.
'I found her earlier than I thought,' Zach thought to himself. He entered the garden but turned around when he got cold feet.
'Come on, Zach. Why are you afraid of a girl?' Zach was bad with girls. He couldn't have a proper chat with them. The reason was he was honest and blunt. He had said many things one should never say to a girl, which got him into trouble many times.
Based on how the girl reacted in the restaurant, Zach knew it wouldn't end well.
"If you are here to hurt me, then you better find another prey," the girl commented.
"...!" Surprised, Zach thought, 'I didn't make any noise, nor should the girl be able to see me with her back facing my side.'
Zach sighed and walked to the gazebo. "How did you know there was someone around?"
The girl took a bite from her cone crepe and answered, "I am used to this."
"..." Zach raised his brows and uttered inwardly, 'Yup. This is not going to end well.'
"So…" The girl finally looked at Zach and asked, "Why are you here?"
"You are a healer, right?" Zach questioned. "How did you level up so fast?"
"What if I don't want to answer?"
Zach shrugged his shoulders and uttered, "Fine by me."
The girl was shocked after hearing that. She was expecting Zach to beg more, but Zach was no simp. He was used to dealing with people like her.
"What's wrong?" Zach asked with a smirk on his face.
"Nothing. If you are done, then get out of my sight. I can't see the stars."
Zach turned around and looked up at the sky to see the stars. "What's fun about watching stars?" he asked.
"I watch stars to calm myself. They help me feel better. And with our current condition when we are trapped in this game, they are the only—" She stopped and muttered, "Why am I telling him all this?"
"So you believe that we are trapped here for real?" Zach asked.
"Why shouldn't I? I was playing with my two maids— made friends, and the monsters killed them. I hoped they would respawn, but they didn't. Now that I think about it, they are dead…" she uttered with a sad look on her face.
'I won't ask her what she meant by 'made friends.' Zach took a deep breath and asserted, "I know this is not the right time, but can you heal me? I only have 50 HP right now."
Zach lied about having 50 HP since he didn't want the girl to backstab him for no reason. Maybe he would have lost 1 HP by tripping or falling over?
"Why don't you just go to church?"
'Because if I do, I wouldn't be able to get answers from you.' Zach thought of a reason for a while and said, "Because I wanted to get healed by a beautiful girl like you."
The girl choked on her crepe and glared at Zach with a mixed expression on her face.
'That was so soo cringe!' Zach held the urge to facepalm himself. He looked at the girl to see her reaction, but much to his surprise, the girl didn't show any reaction on her face at all.
'Now I feel so stupid,' Zach sighed.
"You should save the chivalry for some other girl. You won't get anything by hitting on me," the girl replied nonchalantly.
'No one was hitting on you! And you are not my type in the first place!' Zach nodded and replied, "So, can you heal me or not?"
The girl sighed and answered, "Let me finish my crepe first." She ate her crepe slowly, even though Zach was waiting for her to finish.
After five minutes, the girl turned to Zach and asserted, "I charge one coin for 1 HP."
"What?!" Zach exclaimed. "You charge for healing?"
"The NPC at the church also charges, and her charge is ten coins for one HP. So I think I am charging less," the girl stated and murmured, "Take it as a gratitude for keeping me company."
"Wow!" Zach let out a weary sigh and said, "I never thought I would have to pay for refilling my HP."
"You pay for the hospital bill in the real world, don't you? It's the same here," the girl chuckled.
"The doctors have to do stuff in the real world. We pay for their work. But I don't think healers need to do anything here."
"That's not true. Healers use their MP to regenerate players' HP. 1 MP refills 10 HP."
"Fine~" Zach groaned. "Heal me already."
"How much HP do you need me to refill?" the girl asked curiously.
"Full, of course."
The girl raised her staff and began to heal Zach.
'Wait, if 1 MP heals 10 HP. Then she would need 150 MP to heal my 1500 HP.'
The default MP for players after they reach level 5 was 100, but it could be increased after using accessible points. If she didn't have 150 MP, then her HP would be used instead.
'Should I tell her? I don't want her to go crazy afterward.' Zach cleared his throat and said, "My full HP is 1500, by the way."
"Too late," the girl replied with a furious look on her face. "I thought you were just another player, but I guess I underestimated you."
"Can I see your stats?" Zach asked hesitantly with a curious look on his face.
"Sure. I don't mind." The girl shrugged her shoulders and showed Zach her stats.

Author's Note- It took me nearly 30 minutes to create Aurora's stat menu. I had to calculate the HP and EXP capacity according to level increase. Then, I had to calculate the accessible points and assign them respectively.
It doesn't sound like a lot of work, but it actually is.
Thanks for reading.
