Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 339

Chapter 339: Arrogant and Proud
Riya and Samuel found another stalls and Riya quickly paid for the few jades that she found there.

“Young Master Josh will not give up so easily,” Samuel reminded when he saw Riya was still in the mood to shop around.

Riya passed a glance at Samuel and replied, “I know.”

From the moment she decided to ignore Young Master Josh and continued on her way, Riya knew that Young Master Josh would not give up so easily. But she was too lazy to pay attention to Young Master Josh.

“Do you want to talk with the officials here?” Samuel felt that it would be nothing for him to have some talk with them.

At most, he would inform his father that he made some troubles in City B and the other party will help him to clean up a bit.

If Mr. Jones were to know what his son was thinking, he would definitely come forward and chased after Samuel with a sandal. This brat only knew how to make trouble after dumping the management and administration matters to him.

Unfortunately, he didn’t know.

Because when he knew about the troubles that Samuel caused, it would be too late to beat up Samuel.

“No.” Riya put away the jades and continued to walk. “They’ll not come so quickly and do you think that the officials will be willing to fight against the magic warriors for the sake of Young Master Josh?”

Samuel chuckled. “So you do realize that they’re most likely not willing to make trouble.”

“Yes.” Riya looked into the distance and said, “People like Young Master Josh only knows how to use his position and the power behind him to make trouble. But when facing a hard opponent, he will not be able to do anything and the power behind him would not be willing to provoke a powerful opponent for him.”

At this moment, Riya seemed that she was looking to the front yet not at the same time. It was as if she was in a trance and seeing something that was so far away.

Samuel heard Riya’s words and arched his eyebrows.

“You sound as if you have met with people like this often.”

Often?

Riya blinked her eyes and chuckled.

She did see a few annoying young masters in that world after she became rune master. After all, her customers were both the ordinary people and also the young masters who came from various families.

When she was walking around, she often encountered the scene of these young masters making trouble.

But she was nothing more than a bystander.

Because her identity as a rune master made most of these young masters unwilling to provoke her. They knew very well that if they were to accidentally provoke the rune master association behind these rune masters, they would be beaten up by their family members instead.

“A young master can be arrogant and be proud because of his position and background. But he couldn’t overstep the lines because once he did, the power behind him would not be able to protect him.”

Riya continued walking and added calmly. “So it’s important for these young masters and young misses to know that they’re not the most powerful people in the world. Their arrogance and proudness has a limit. Some of them didn’t know this, which made them very annoying and troublesome to deal with. But some others are instead cute because they look like a big child who had never grown up.”

A big child who has never grown up…

For some reasons, Samuel had the feeling that Riya was referring to his sister when she mentioned this phrase.

After all, that description was very suitable for Amelia.

“I see.”

“As a young master yourself, don’t you also have time when you’re arrogant and proud because of your background?” Riya asked back.

Samuel rubbed his nose and replied, “Of course I’m arrogant and proud when I was a child. I’m the successor of the Jones Corporation and there are going to be a lot of people under my command when I grow up.”

After this, Samuel paused for a moment. “But being a young master doesn’t mean that I can play around all the time. As the successor, I have to train hard day and night so that I can bear the responsibility that will be placed onto my shoulder.”

It was his sister and younger brother who were given more freedom.

When these two people were playing around in the garden and made trouble in the compound, he was still in the study room to study the materials that his father handed over to him.

So even if Samuel is proud, he also understood that he had his own responsibility to fulfill.

It was his obligation as the successor of the Jones Family.

Well… at least, that was how it is in the past.

Considering that he needed to focus his time on practicing and restoring his previous strength, Samuel had the feeling that his younger brother would have to take over his position.

Amelia was impossible.

That girl only knew how to play around.And her aspiration was simply too far away from this kind of position and responsibility.

“I see.” Riya nodded when she listened to Samuel’s words.

She never had any parents who cared for her education and would take care of her. Because those two people were too busy with their own affairs. They both didn’t want her and their families refused to take care of her.

Shaking her head, Riya didn’t think about it anymore.

Her eyes moved across the stalls once again before she locked onto a pile of rocks in the distance.

“Senior Samuel, are those….?” Riya pointed in one direction.

Samuel looked at the direction Riya pointed at and his eyes turned sharper instantly. He also recognized these ores and knew very well how valuable they were.

“It should be the mana metal ore,” Samuel said with certainty.

Riya’s eyes lit up when she heard this.
