Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 251

Chapter 251: Rats Extermination (2)
“Aaaaah! Brother! I hate you so much!”

Amelia was holding her sword and looked at the field in front of her with great resistance. Her work was not over yet, but her brother said that her and her brother’s work would be changed today.

Their task was to kill rats.

That’s right, killing rats. It would have been better if they were simply roaming outside like when they hunted those magic beasts before.

But now they were standing in the muddy field and these rats were basically hiding around the plants.

It was simply increasing the difficulty level!

“This time, I agree with you.” Sean’s face was also dark. He was also holding his sword and walked the field beside Amelia, feeling that his future was really bleak. There were many other magic warriors in City A Base, why did Samuel have to specifically find them?

Just because their works were usually idle?

“Don’t harm the plants as much as possible,” Samuel gave instruction from the edge of the field, not caring about how his brother and sister wanted to curse him so much right now. He knew very well that these two people would not like this work, but this would be good for them to practice.

These magic rats were very weak, but they were good at hiding. He himself could find them as long as he was close enough, but Riya could detect them from a distance through the mana fluctuation.

It was clear that Riya’s sensitivity towards mana was really high.

This might be one of the few reasons why she could become a rune master.

“Brother! You come here and help us!” Amelia yelled back, but she still honestly walk forward. She was honestly glad that she has a knee high boots or she would not be able to withstand walking in this muddy field.

“I’ll only help if you face rank 2 magic beast,” Samuel replied expressionlessly.

These two people could deal with rank 1 magic rat on their own and rank 2 magic beast might be a bit difficult. So if they really did see a rank 2 magic rat, then Samuel would go down and help them.

“…I can understand why you call them, but why am I here too?” Arnold asked in a low voice and looked at Samuel with faint resentment.

He was having a good time cleaning up some magic beasts near City A Base. Even though the area around City A Base could be said to have few magic beasts, there would still be some of them coming out from time to time.

Since Arnold had good experience in fighting and liked this activity the most, he also came out to hunt these magic beasts.

But Samuel suddenly called him.

And his task was to target these magic rats that were only rank 1 magic beast.

Arnold felt that there was water in Samuel’s head this time.

“Your task is to clear up the surroundings area around the field,” Samuel replied. “There might be some magic beasts lurking there and your task is to clean them up.”

“Oh.” Arnold heaved a sigh of relief.

For a moment, he thought that he would be given the same task as Amelia and Sean, which was unreasonable in his opinion. After all, the magic rats were too weak for Arnold since he had reached rank 1 peak.

It could be said that fighting is the best method for Arnold to strengthen himself.

But having too many magic beasts around that wanted to kill him was not exactly a good thing either.

“…How about me?” Joan asked.

She has just started to rest after busy the previous day to help treating the injured. But now, she was suddenly called here.

“Naturally, it’s to help cleaning up the rats,” Samuel replied without hesitation.

Joan fell into silence.

She looked at the muddy water in front of her and really didn’t want to go there. Not only there were rats, there were also snakes in the field. These animals were small and if they were not careful enough, they could be hit.

Especially after the animals turned into magic beasts…

She really didn’t want to go.

“Do I really have to?” Joan asked again.

“This will increase your fighting capabilities and also increase your sensitivity,” Samuel replied without hesitation.

In other words: yes, she has to do it.

Joan gritted her teeth and cursed, “It’s no wonder you’re still single when your brother is not.”

Samuel turned a deaf ear to Joan.

Sean saw his girlfriend came and dragged her to his field. Anyway, they have to clean up a total of 10 fields today, so they could share the burden with each other and do it with their own pace.

There were a total of four people whom Samuel called to help with the clean up this time.

The last one was actually Sophia.

“I have no fighting capability,” Sophia said with dumbfounded expression. When the Carson Family heard that Samuel wanted to take Sophia to train a bit, they allowed it. After all, with Samuel watching over Sophia, they didn’t think anything would happen to her.

Moreover, it could be said that Sophia would not fight by herself when Melly was around.

She could perfectly replace Sophia.

“It’s not for you but for Melly.” Samuel pointed at Melly beside Sophia and said, “She needs more real training and since it could be dangerous, letting her start from catching rats will be good.”

Sophia was silent for a moment and then said, “I have never heard of dogs catching rats before.”

“Then you heard it today.”

Sophia: “…”

She had the feeling that Samuel was treating dogs the same as he treated cats.

But the problem is, Melly has never caught any rats before.

She looked at Melly helplessly and patted the dog’s head. “Melly, you have to go there and start killing rats.”

“Woof?” <killing rats?>

Melly looked at Sophia in confusion and then at the field in front of him.

Splash!
