Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 431

Chapter 431: Battle
That unfilial daughter only made Valeria’s father annoyed.

If only she was not in the prison, he would have made a move right away.

But for now, he could only work honestly.

These people who used to be the big bosses behind the scene were all now nothing more than construction worker. They have to work carefully and made sure that they didn’t do anything wrong.

Otherwise, it would not be an exaggeration to say that their status undergone complete change.

From the boss to the worker.

Some of them couldn’t accept it and some others could accept it and learn to adapt.

Because time is changing.

But how could he be willing to let things stay this way?

Some of them had accepted their fate and truly work honestly. But there were also others who were thinking of doing something behind and planning things. It was just that there was no chance for them to make a move that they were still standing still.

Right now, Valeria’s father also knew that there was no chance for him to make a splash and change his fate. He could only patiently wait for an opportunity to arrive and strike hard to live a completely different life.

If necessary, he didn’t mind sacrificing those around him.

They were worthless.

…

Carson Family

At this moment, Sophia was staying in the Carson Family, looking at the few people who came to take a look.

Even her grandfather was there.

“You’re saying that this white tiger has reached rank 3?” Old Master Carson asked, his voice was trembling. He didn’t expect that his daughter would be able to bring such a powerful magic beast and this magic beast was still listening to her word.

Just looking at how Mo was baring teeth at the other members of the Carson Family and how he was rubbing Sophia’s legs affectionally, one could see the deep preferences of this white tiger.

But at the same time, Old Master Carson knew that this was not what Sophia wanted to tell him. Because if this white tiger belongs to Sophia, she would not use such a tone when talking to him.

“Yes, Mo is my friend’s pet and she asked me to take of him for the time being. Don’t worry, she gave me more than enough food to feed him and I will not use the Carson Family’s supplies,” Sophia explained.

If she didn’t say this upfront, some of her aunt or uncles would definitely think that she was using the Carson Family’s resources for her own benefit.

It would be very annoying.

The Carson Family was united on the front and outsiders wouldn’t be able to point at them and see anything wrong. But those who were inside all knew that none of them have true good relationship with each other.

If it was not for the sake of the ‘Carson Family,’ none of them would be staying here on purpose.

Ghost knew what was in their heart.

The only thing they knew right now was the fact that they had to listen to Old Master Carson if they wanted to prosper together and do a good job to prove their worth to the family.

Otherwise, they would be discarded as an abandoned chess piece that has no worth left.

Sacrificing and cutting off things that was not beneficial to the family was extremely common for the Carson Family.

It was something that had happened countless times in the past.

Now that the number of members in the Carson Family was not much, they had to be more cautious. Because Old Master Carson would not tolerate their mistakes if they were to cause more trouble for the other members in the Carson Family.

Any action detrimental to the family was forbidden.

But this didn’t prevent them from having infighting and fighting for favor. It was something that happened all the time and Sophia had seen it a lot.

To prevent herself from being targeted as one of the potential target to be disturbed by them, the only thing that Sophia could do was to make things clear to her grandfather as much as possible and put herself in the position of importance in the Carson Family.

‘Sorry about this, Mo.’

For this, Sophia will have to use Mo.

She knew that Riya would not mind, but she still felt a bit guilty for the two of them. Then again, when Riya handed over Mo for her to take care, Riya should have known that she might do this.

After all, Sophia was different from the naive and cute Amelia.

She did like to have fun, but she has more common sense and restrain because of her family upbringing.

“I understand.” Old Master Carson nodded.

“Tsk, that’s what you said but who knows whether you’re saying the truth?” One of the uncles grumbled.

Sophia said nothing and ignored him. She was not close to her relatives and had no interest to become close to them all of the sudden either. After all, they didn’t have much intersection before and there was no need for her to forcefully create intersection in the future.

The current relationship was already good enough and there was no need to change it.

“How about Melly?” Old Master Carson asked.

“Melly is good. She has reached the peak of rank 2.” Sophia smiled brightly when she mentioned this. “And thanks to her, I have reached rank 1. I estimated that after Melly advanced to rank 3, I might be able to reach rank 2 and thus contracted the second magic beast.”

Second magic beast!

When the other Carson Family members heard this, their eyes turned to look at Sophia with envy.

They all knew very well that Sophia barely suffered in her training because the one who will take the frontline for her is Melly. This kind of method was really enviable and many of them also wanted to become a beast master.

But Old Master Carson didn’t allow them to.
