Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 45

Chapter 45: Anger
“I see. But I better not see you bother my friend.” Amelia saw that Riya was alright and heaved a sigh of relief secretly. She looked at Ciera unkindly and pulled Riya into the room again.

Ciera wanted to argue but Amelia had slammed the door in front of her.

Slam!

Her face was blue with anger, but Ciera tried her best to hold it back. “I want to wash first.”

“Yes.”

…

Inside the room, Amelia looked at Riya up and down. “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine, but it seems the drinks you ordered wouldn’t come anytime soon.” Riya shrugged.

“Just a few drinks are fine.” Sophia turned off the music and looked at Riya and Amelia. “Someone bothered you?”

“Ciera,” Riya replied indifferently.

Sophia was not very close to Riya, but she knew Riya’s background a bit. Just like Amelia, her parents would not allow her to get close to anyone without them knowing the background clearly to prevent them befriending bad people.

“What did she do?”

Riya looked at Amelia and Sophia, not really wanting to talk about it. But when she saw that Ruby was also interested, she had to say what Ciera did and her action of evading.

“Tsk, I should have slapped her before we come here.” Amelia suddenly felt that dragging Riya into the room alone was not enough. She should have taught Ciera some lessons.

“Don’t bother with her. You come here to have fun, so there’s no need to pay any attention to her.” Riya looked at Amelia helplessly.

Sophia snorted. “This place belongs to me. I’ll ask the manager to call the Taylor Family for compensation. Look at how they ask from her, then.”

“You don’t have to do that much…” Riya was speechless.

“It’s nothing. If we have problem in the future, you can just help us.” Sophia waved her hand nonchalantly. She played together with Amelia a lot because they used to be neighbors. Friends that Amelia accepted must be good because she knew how picky Amelia was.

Riya looked at Sophia and could only accept it.

Ruby listened and sighed. “If only there’s no law, I can actually try to give them some zombie potion as revenge.”

Riya: “…” what in the world did you develop?

“Wait, did you actually make that fairy like potion?” Amelia’s eyes lit up with interest.

At this time, Sophia, who usually only make do with her own lessons, were also paying close attention to Ruby. If this kind of potion could be made, she also wanted to learn it!

“Yes, temporarily.” Ruby looked at the others and grinned. “It’s actually just a medicine that can suppress your brain activity, making your IQ drop for a few hours. That way, you can only do things based on instinct, quite similar to zombie, isn’t it? But it’s still in the testing stage and it’s my personal research.”

Amelia clapped her hands.

Sophia looked envious. “If only I could also make something like that…”

“I think it’s better for you to pass your class first.”

Sophia stuck out her tongue playfully. The indication was clear: she was too lazy and would only make do with her lessons. Though, she did love animals greatly, which was why she wanted to be a vet.

There were a lot of pets in her home that Riya couldn’t remember anymore.

“Also, if you’re so harsh to them, they might truly want to retaliate.” Amelia looked at Riya thoughtfully. “Have you thought about how you want to face them?

How to face them?

Riya blinked her eyes.

Thinking about it from another perspective, she was indeed nothing more than a university student with some meagre skills. While she could live in her world forever and no one would be able to find her, she didn’t want to do that.

Not being able to see the outside world…

That would be quite painful.

Riya didn’t want to destroy her entire life because of her conflict with the Taylor Family.

“I’ll figure something out.” Riya pursed her lips.

“Alright. If you ever need help, you can tell us.” Amelia grinned. “For this kind of small matter, I can still help you.”

Riya nodded.

She acted mostly out of impulse just now.

Thinking about it now, she should have hold back a little bit and made sure that Taylor Family couldn’t trouble her in the slightest bit.

Perhaps, in the future there would be a way.

For now, she will just focus on developing herself. With her memory strengthened due to magic, Riya was sure that if she wanted to learn many things, it was no longer impossible.

“Let’s stop talking about it. Can we talk about something else?” Ruby didn’t want to disclose more of her research because she was worried that other people will steal it. She had worked hard for so many years for herself and not make wedding dresses for others.

“And no more song.”

Sophia pouted.

Riya thought of something and asked, “Do you know anything about good jade and the place to obtain it for cheap?”
