15 Allies? (2/2)

”I have only learned some basic fire spells. You should know that an apprentice like myself, would find it difficult to afford those types of spell books concerning healing. It looks like after we eat, we are going to need to head back immediately.” Natalia said while turning towards Leo.

”Sir, one of our friends is severely hurt from the earlier battle. Is it possible that we can just owe you a meal, so we can use the extra time to make sure our friend lives?” she asked Leo with a concerned look on her face.

”Just worry about cooking some of that juicy looking meat. I should be able to help that Jack fellow over there.” replied Leo as he dashed towards Jack's location.

”How could someone so strong, know some healing magic as well? Could this person be a noble from the city that we do not recognize?” many of these thoughts began to form in Natalia and Martin's head.

Natalia began to cook some of the monster meat as Martin started to inspect his smaller wounds. Even if Leo was bluffing, he saved their lives, so they would not argue with his decision.

”Drink this, it should help you recover at least a little bit.” Leo told Jack while handing him one of the red potions he earned from completing the quest.

”An alchemist? That does not explain your combat skills, but, to have an alchemist like yourself as a new ally,couldn't be happier!” taking the potion, Leo was surprised that Jack could recognize the type of potion it was.

Swallowing only a single sip, Jack gave the bottle back to Leo. Confused on why he would only take a single sip, Leo held the potion in his hand as he watched Jack.

After only a single breath of time, the wounds on Jack's body started to close up and he was completely back to his full power. However, Leo realized why this had happened with only a single sip of the potion.

After depositing the potion back into his inventory, the bottle showed that one twentieth of the total bottle was used. This told Leo that if someone was lower leveled like Jack, that they did not need any more than a single sip in order to fully recover their strength.

What was strange to Leo, was that Jack actually had a level above his head! Jack was level eight and was orange.

”Wait, he did mention that we were allies and I did not decline. Does this mean that when it comes to other humans, that I can see their levels if they are my ally?” pondered Leo as Jack stood back up on his feet.

”If that is the case, I wonder what it will take in order to see the levels of everyone around me, including enemies? Hopefully, that is a type of skill that I can obtain in the future.” Leo was thinking as him and Jack made their way back to Martin and Natalia's location.
