Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 388

Chapter 388: Clean
“Mom! I’m back!” Amelia shouted after she came in. Her eyes moved towards her room as she really wanted to stay in her big bathtub and relax. Staying outside for such a long time and unable to take care of herself made her really tired.

What she needed the most is a bath!

A good bath!

After being stained by blood along with dust and dirt, Amelia felt really dirty and couldn’t stand herself. If it was possible, she really wanted to stay in a bath for an hour, but she was sure that her mother would scold her.

There were not much resources in this world and to be able to take a bath was already a luxury.

After all, many people couldn’t eat and drink out there.

“Welcome back.” Mrs. Jones heaved a sigh of relief when she saw her two children come back. She had heard from her husband that Samuel was being called for a meeting with Mr. A.

In this way, all of her children were safe and sound.

Mrs. Jones has been worried ever since they departed to the crack. After all, she could not know their condition because there was no connection within the crack. The only thing she could do was to wait for them to go back.

“Mom, we’re all fine~.” Amelia stepped forward, wanting to hug her mother. And then she remembered that she was covered in dust because of the battle. “Just a bit dirty.”

Seeing her daughter’s embarrassed smile, Mrs. Jones chuckled in amusement. “Go and take a bath. Your brother didn’t say that you’re going again, right?”

If Mrs. Jones could pick, she would rather have her children be more ordinary. Standing at the forefront in various battles would only put them in danger. Moreover, they would have to face the unknown danger firsthand.

She felt distressed.

“We have a few days break,” Sean replied.

Just a few days?

Mrs. Jones nodded with some distress.

She was actually hoping that they could spend more time at home instead of going out to face those magic beasts. There were many other people who had become a magic warrior under her husband’s arrangement, so there was no need for them to get out or anything like that, right?

Seeing his mother looking at him, Sean rubbed his forehead and said, “Mother, you can persuade brother to let us stay at home more if you want to.”

Persuade Samuel?

Mrs. Jones rolled her eyes and shook her head.

Ever since he was young, Samuel has never been a kid that was easy to be ordered by other. He had his own way of doing things and at the same time, he was also very stubborn on some matters.

This made those who were close to him often feel headache from dealing with him.

But his keen intuition in business made him a very good successor, so both Mr. Jones and Mrs. Jones could only tolerate him.

Thankfully, that boy grew up to be a fine man.

Now that Samuel is already one of the strongest magic warrior around, Mrs. Jones didn’t think that she could give order to Samuel. She also didn’t want to disturb his work as much as possible.

“You should talk with your brother more to let you train your strength first before going out to fight those magic beasts,” Mrs. Jones said helplessly.

Sean was silent.

If he could persuade his brother, would he end up in this state?

Thinking about his older brother, Sean felt that it would be extremely difficult for him to ask him for anything.

“Mother, I think that it’s better if we don’t try to ask him,” Amelia said bitterly.

She felt that if she were to ask something like that to her brother, what awaited her would be overtime and more training. She had already tried to ‘seek death’ too many times in front of her brother that she was very familiar with this matter.

There was no way Amelia wanted to repeat such a thing.

“Alright, alright.” Mrs. Jones could only agree helplessly.

She also understood that these two children didn’t dare to confront their older brother in case he would punish them instead. It would not be impossible considering they have been punished a lot by their brother in the past.

Mrs. Jones shook her head and then looked at Riya. She blinked her eyes and then looked at Amelia and then turned to Riya again, her expression contained some doubts.

This was because Riya is exceptionally clean.

When Riya was escorting them from the back, there was shield runes, which blocked the dust from reaching her. Afterwards, she activated the Runes Protective Circle, which basically blocked everything that could be a threat to her.

So Riya is still very clean.

Those who didn’t know would think that she was going on an outing.

On the other hand, Sean and Amelia were covered in dust and there were even some part of their clothes that was torn. Some blood marks from the magic beasts remained since they mostly fought close combat battle.

The contrast made Mrs. Jones doubtful.

“Well… Riya is very powerful, Mom,” Amelia said helplessly.

This could be considered to be an explanation.

“But is it possible to be this….” Mrs. Jones didn’t know what to say. Because Riya in front of her looked as if she was just talking a short walk outside instead of fighting. Not only that, she was also very clean without any dust or dirt at all, which made one wonder whether she had taken a bath not long ago.

The problem is, this should be impossible because they were all staying inside that crack and who would build a bathroom there?

Unless they were crazy, they would not build a bathroom first.

“There’s a cleaning magic spell,” Riya said quietly.

To be honest, Riya didn’t know how many days she hadn’t taken a bath. Because the cleaning magic spell was very useful and with it, Riya didn’t need to worry about getting dirty or anything.
