Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 30

Chapter 30: Suspicions
Samuel looked at Riya and thought that it might be good for this young woman to be introduced to this world too.

“You will know if there are any other news from them.” Samuel shook his head. “Now, ready for the practice today.”

“Brother!”

“I’ll go back then.” Riya kept her distance and made her way to her room.

In the living room, Samuel took the sword and watched Riya’s back for a while before turning his head away. He had seen that she was trying to stay away from him for some reasons.

And because he himself also didn’t want to care in this direction for the time being, this might be the best for them.

…

Knock! Knock!

The knocking sound made Samuel frown. He looked at his sister and pointed his chin at the door. “Do you have an appointment with someone?”

“No.” Amelia shook her head. “No one will dare to come out during this period of time. Brother.”

She herself also didn’t dare to come out. Who would are to come out during this period of time?

“Who is it?” Amelia asked out loud.

“Amelia? This is Tom from the boys’ dormitory. Do you have any excess food?”

Boy’s dormitory?

Samuel’s face turned cold when he heard this. It seemed that there were some people who didn’t care about the difference between male and female.

“No.” Amelia responded swiftly. She didn’t even remember who this Tom is. Amelia’s name as quite well known, though.

“Huh? Valeria told me that you have more food…”

“Let me deal with him.” Samuel was impatient when he heard his cousin’s name. This annoying woman had made a lot of troubles for Amelia over the years.

“Thank you, Brother.”

Bang!

Samuel walked out of the room and looked at the two boys in front of him, his expression was cold. “We have a lot to talk.”

“Ah, wait!”

“It’s not…”

Aaaaah!

Inside her room, Riya peeked out for a moment when she heard the scream. It seemed that their lives here wouldn’t be that peaceful. Even when the mist still existed outside, there were some people who were impatient and wanted to snatch other people’s food.

Amelia sat on the sofa leisurely.

With her brother in front, Amelia didn’t think that it was possible for these boys to come inside.

‘Well, let’s not think too much about this.’

Riya was sure that Samuel could handle the matter of unwanted visitor on his own.

On the other hand, she was more worried about something else.

Staying in the room, Riya took a deep breath.

‘I guess this meant that I have to get stronger quickly and secretly… wait, did Samuel found out about my magic realm?’

Her magic method was different from Samuel. This was something that Riya was sure of because she had seen Amelia secretly practiced before falling asleep.

The method was indeed attracting the Mana.

But after it entered the body, Amelia was focused on the specific accupoin or muscles or bones as Riya was not sure about it while Riya was following the body to form a circle to let her body get stronger before entering her heart. She was not sure about the exact detail, but it was indeed different.

But there were indeed various methods for magic and meditation.

After all, there were various path to achieve their goal to get stronger. There was no need to be so fixated to one path.

Though for one to be introduced to one of them, it was not so easy. They had to understand what they had to do if they wanted to get stronger.

Practicing in her room, Riya felt that she was slowly getting stronger.

But at the same time, she felt the mana in the outside world was slowly increasing. The increase was subtle and not directly twice like when the fog suddenly appeared. It would not be very clear for most people, but Riya could sense it.

At the same time, she knew that this change will affect a lot of people in the future.

…

The day passed by quietly.

When it was night time, Riya sighed softly on her bed.

All the talk about what happened in the outside world was still weighing her mind. The fact that there would be other people who had similar experience with her told her that it might cause a lot of effect in the future.

But how much, she didn’t know.

And whether these people would stay low like her or to announce it to the outside world like what others did was also unknown.

The practice for the day was basically over and Riya was not in the mood to continue. She could continue but her fluctuating mood couldn’t calm down easily.

In the end, Riya walked out of her room, she wanted to drink some water.

“Miss Riya?”

Riya raised her head and saw Samuel standing near the window holding a phone in his right hand. She blinked her eyes and greeted, “Senior Samuel.”
