Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 385

Chapter 385: Teasing
Samuel was silent for a while and then said, “Battery can’t regenerate by itself.”

Riya: “…”

She understood the principle of energy conservation, but this is not the place to talk about it.

The main reason why she talked about it was to give an easy to understand example for Samuel.

Seeing Riya’s look, Samuel laughed lightly and said, “Okay, okay, I’m sorry but your explanation is not very good.”

Riya rubbed her forehead helplessly as she felt that Samuel is really a bit playful. Not that she minded it though.

“Alright, let’s use another example…” Riya has never been good at giving explanations for people who didn’t have any foundation in runes. For people like Samuel who basically didn’t touch runes at all, using the terms that she usually used would definitely make him more confused than understanding.

“How about liquid bombs? You should know that liquid bombs are very fragile and if you disturb it in the slightest bit, it’ll cause explosion, right?” Riya asked.

Samuel was stunned and looked at Riya thoughtfully. “Your explanation is very dangerous, Riya. Have you seen bombs before?”

“No.”

“Then…”

“I read it in the story I found in the internet.”

Samuel: “…?”

What did she read?

Seeing the expression on Samuel’s face, black lines appeared on Riya’s forehead. “I don’t read anything dangerous. It’s a detective novel where there are liquid bombs placed in some place and there are police officers… or specialist or whatever defusing it.”

She definitely didn’t read any kind of thesis or anything related to bomb construction. After all, Riya’s study was not related to this kind of thing and Riya didn’t have any reason why she would want to read something like that.

“Oh~.” Samuel looked at Riya and smiled faintly. “It seems that your knowledge reserve is quite big, Miss Riya.”

“Don’t speak like that.” Riya really wanted to hit Samuel right now. “Why can’t I like reading novels? I’m also a human being and I have my own hobby.”

At least, hobby before coming to that world.

After coming back from that world, Riya had almost never read anything again because she was so busy with her training and experiment with various runes. After all, she was back to be a rank 1 magician at that time and it was impossible for her to make any high ranked runes.

For the sake of her safety and survival, Riya could only do her best to use some low ranked runes.

Runes that didn’t require much mana but could be used for various things.

These were more important.

Oh, she also finished her thesis and there was basically no time for her to read those favorite stories of hers.

“I know, I know,” Samuel quickly said while laughing. “I also have my own hobby, but I didn’t expect you to like reading those kinds of stories.”

“It can’t be helped.” Riya shrugged. “Who made my life has too much drama and I want to read other things with more excitement.”

The excitement in the form of mystery and other things.

It was much more interesting than having to read dramas of those women who were more outrageous than her half sister and mother.

Too tiring to read.

Samuel nodded.

He knew that his sister also read many kinds of romance novels, so he was actually not very surprised that Riya read novels and so on. After all, those could be said to be their hobbies that they liked to do in their free time.

Everyone had their own hobbies and he would not judge them.

Anyway, back to the topic.

“But I have to say that your example is really dangerous.” Samuel thought about the liquid bomb and then continued, “Do you mean that putting another space storage scroll is the same as disturbing the liquid and trigger the explosion?”

“Yes.” Riya nodded with a smile. “That’s more or less how it is. But if you are to make a more advance and stabler bomb and then put the relatively volatile liquid bomb inside it, then nothing would happen… well, theatrically?”

Riya thought about it and frowned.

Who in their right mind would put two bombs together?

Would combining two bombs together make the explosion bigger?

It didn’t seem to be that way…

Samuel didn’t know that Riya’s mind had flown far away but he felt helpless about Riya’s explanation that was using bombs like that. Even though it was easy to understand but the mental image in his mind has turned storage after she mentioned it that way.

“Alright, I got it. I don’t think I need to get more storage explanation from you again…”

“So it’s still strange?”

Seeing Riya’s gaze, Samuel coughed and said, “Well, it’s not that bad but I don’t think that the function of these two are different.”

Riya snorted but chose not to care about Samuel at this time. She nodded and said, “Of course it’s different, but you better not try to create that kind of explosion because you can’t remotely control the two space storage scrolls from a distance…. Unless you’re a soul magician.”

Soul magician.

It was a special type of magician whose magic was in the form of souls and they could also extend their mana further away than others. These soul magicians were known for their abilities to control puppets and affecting a person’s mind.

Samuel arched his eyebrows. “A necromancer could also do it.”

“Ah, right, you remind me of an annoying lich.”

Samuel laughed when he heard Riya’s words. There was indeed some annoying lich in that world and he had to admit that he didn’t like dealign with them either.

“Stop laughing.” Riya rolled her eyes.

“Okay, okay, I’ll go and make the report first.” Samuel thought that it was time for him to see Mr. A and bid his farewell. He had more or less understand the restriction when using the space storage scrolls and understood how Riya could take so much food.

As for the detailed explanation, he truly didn’t need it.

And he had enough fun teasing Riya too.
