Runemaster in the Last Days novel Chapter 1092

Swish!

Samuel stepped forward without hesitation and hugged Riya tightly. Seeing the painful expression on Riya's face, Samuel felt heartbroken and painful. He rubbed her head and back tenderly, trying to soothe his wife's emotion as much as possible.

At this moment, Samuel understood very clearly that sometimes, knowing the truth would not make one's feel better. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Instead, it would make one's heart shatter.

They have done so much in their lives, working hard for the sake of their future and then they were told that this was something that the Green Planet's Consciousness had calculated and arranged for them.

Who could accept it clearly with a smile on their faces?

Unless they were lunatics, they wouldn't be able to accept it.

Not even Samuel could.

But even if Samuel felt his heart was being cut off, he couldn't possibly show it in front of Riya and made her feel worse.

He just hoped that Riya would feel better.

"Even if that Green Planet's Consciousness wants us to do something… we'll come back sooner or later to settle our account with it," Samuel said slowly. "Once we reach rank 12… we'll have the strength to deal with the Green Planet's Consciousness."

Because at that rank, they were basically already above time and space.

If they wanted to settle their account with the Green Planet's Consciousness, they could do it.

But…

Samuel knew very well that it would take decades or perhaps centuries for one to reach rank 12. And during the time spent to reach that rank, no one knew how many years one would take.

Moreover, the requirement for advancement would become harsher and harsher.

Even if he hadn't experienced the bottleneck right now, Samuel remembered that Riya's condition some time ago was not right.

She told him that she failed to break through for a while.

It was only after she came back to the Green Planet that she managed to advance to rank 9.

Riya didn't explain it.

But Samuel could guess that Riya must have been troubled at that time.

It was just…

They have gone through so much in just a few years.

Everything they have experienced was to help them to go through the future better and no matter what, Samuel would protect Riya.

This wouldn't be easy, but he's prepared for it.

"Rank 12…" Riya muttered.

She naturally knew very well what they might experience in the future if they were to continue walking down this path.

But this is their ultimate goal.

To reach the peak meant that they had to get stronger and stronger…

And the way to get stronger was naturally to go to the place filled with danger and overcome it.

Samuel can say for certain that he's angry and frustrated.

Having the Green Planet's Consciousness calculated their lives trajectory and made them follow the path that it had laid out…

What does the Green Planet's Consciousness think of them?

Tools for it to use?

But no matter how angry Samuel is, he knew very well that the Green Planet's Consciousness was very powerful.

Moreover, even if he was being treated as a tool, Samuel could only accept it.

Because what the Green Planet's Consciousness offered was the safety of the Green Planet behind them.

This is their homeland.

And their family members were also here.

Riya pursed her lips and rubbed her eyes. It has been a long time since she cried like this, but she really couldn't help it.

Even if she had become powerful and all, she's still a human being with emotions.

"Yes, so… Green Planet's Consciousness, I'll make sure to come back in the future," Riya muttered and looked at the distance.

She didn't know whether the Green Planet's Consciousness was listening to her or not, but no matter whether it was listening or not, she wanted to tell the Green Planet's Consciousness about her decision.

"I'll go… if this is what it takes to keep the Green Planet safely, I'll follow your arrangement," Riya muttered. "Don't get me wrong and think that it's because of you that I'm doing this, but it's because I also have other things that I want to do."
