Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 120

Chapter 120: Showdown
While these magic beasts’ rank was lower than Riya’s current rank, but they could still help a bit.

She also kept some of the rank 1 magic beasts’ corpse in case it was needed. Only the unranked were all used as fertilizer because she really didn’t want to use them.

The blood of the rank 1 to rank 3 magic beasts were all collected carefully.

Those would be used for her to make formation in the future.

And now, the food that Riya ate were all made of ordinary materials. Some unranked beast meat were mixed in, but how could it be enough? For Riya, these food only tasted delicious on her tongue but her stomach was protesting due to the lack of mana.

So she could only eat a bit more for the sake of her stomach.

After this, she would have to eat other types of food from her world.

She has been pampering herself by eating the meat of the magic beasts that contained more mana, so her body also demanded it. Thankfully, her appetite was not that big, so she could still fulfill her stomach’s request most of the time.

It was just a bit difficult this time.

“It’s delicious too.” Sophia nodded in agreement.

Ruby glanced at the meat and then said, “These area all magic beasts’ meat. Ordinary people can’t eat too much.”

She had felt her body a bit hot after eating the food, which was caused by her body absorbing the mana. This heat was not unbearable, but it was a bit uncomfortable.

“Really?” Sophia was full of doubt and said, “I don’t feel anything.”

Ruby: “…”

She had the feeling that she was officially the weakest.

Riya heard this and looked at Sophia. “How’s your meditation progress?”

“How do you know that I do meditation?” Sophia asked again in confusion and then looked at the food in front of her. Well, it seemed to be easy to guess. “It’s going well. Somehow I feel it’s easy to meditate as long as I’m holding Melly.”

Melly is Sophia’s dog. If it was not because they were not allowed to bring pets to the dormitory, it was expected that Sophia would have long bring Melly to the dormitory to play.

“Melly is here?” Riya’s eyes lit up. She also liked that golden retriever dog.

“She’s with Stephen,” Sophia replied.

Stephen is Sophia’s older brother and also the heir of the family. Well, at least, for their branch, it was her older brother who will inherit the business back then.

“I see.” Riya sighed.

She thought about the white tiger in her space. Come to think about it, she hadn’t named him. Well, she would think of a name later.

“By the way, you go out on your own. Are you capable of killing the magic beasts on your own?” Ruby suddenly asked.

She was a bit curious and seeing that the pair of sibling at the side hadn’t finished their quarrel, she chose to ask about it first. Of course, if Riya didn’t want to answer, she would not pester the other party.

Hearing this question, Samuel also raised his head and looked in the direction of Riya and the other girls.

He believed that the answer for that question is yes.

Because he could sense that Riya didn’t seem to be weak but he couldn’t sense her strength clearly because mages’ strength was hard to gauge without them making a move first.

Riya looked at Ruby and after thinking for a moment, she nodded. “Yes.”

If she couldn’t kill these magic beasts, it was estimated that they would never let her go out. Even though it was not like Riya needed her friends’ permission, but she also didn’t want to make them worry.

“That’s good.” Ruby smiled.

As for how strong Riya is, Ruby had no interest to ask.

On the other hand, Sophia was looking at Riya with amazement and then asked, “Then, do you know if there’s a way to make animals stronger? Melly has helped me a lot and I want her to accompany me all the time.”

The others: “…”

They were all busy to get stronger but Sophia’s focus was instead on her dog.

For this matter, they could only express their helplessness.

From the very beginning, Sophia loved animals greatly and her dream was to become a vet. So even though Ruby kept on complaining about Sophia running out to play at night, Sophia’s scores were still very good.

Because Sophia really wanted to become a vet and stayed with these animals.

As for family business?

Hehehe, she would throw it all to her brother.

“Making animals stronger?” Riya repeated and her expression was a bit strange. The best method to make animals stronger was to let them stay in the environment that was filled with mana. In this way, they would absorb the mana and strengthen their bodies to a certain degree.

If the animals’ talent was stronger, it was possible for them to form mana core on their own and then advanced.

But this progress was slow.

So for these magic beasts, the fastest way for them to advance was through killing other magic beasts and seized the magic cores inside their body. For this reason, many magic beasts couldn’t cooperate together with other magic beasts.

Because if they were not careful enough, they would be killed.

‘Right, how did those magic beasts manage to get along harmoniously underground?’ Riya thought about another matter that seemed to have no answer and shook her head internally.

It seemed that this was not her business.

As for Sophia’s question…

“Well, yes. There’s a way.” Riya said and then reached out to her backpack before taking out a small ball, the ball looked dark and the size was only half the size of an egg. The surface was a bit uneven but for some reason, everyone felt that this thing was very valuable.

Amelia finished her quarrel and then saw the ‘ball’ on Riya’s hand. She was surprised, “A magic core?”
