Runemaster in the Last Days novel Chapter 290

Because at the end of the day, the world structure had changed.

Only the strong will survive.

…

Riya’s side

Samuel brought Riya to the backyard of the Jones Family Residence. At this time, Ruben was already there with a pile of stone beside him. He himself was sitting on a chair and looked at the stone in his hand.

Seeing the stone’s shape, Riya guessed that Ruben has been practicing to make the formation for some time. These stones were somewhat flat on one side, which was suitable to draw runes and formation.

It was not impossible to draw the runes on ragged stones, but it’ll be harder and the efficiency might be affected.

For beginner, it would be better for them to use smoother and better stones.

"How’s your progress?" Samuel asked when he saw Ruben staring at the stone in front of him. He knew that Ruben had some fixation about making runes, but he was not sure about the other party’s talent.

After all, learning about runes without talent was the same as seeking abuse.

They would only feel their lives were tortured so badly that they felt really overwhelmed. Well… to be exact, their brain.

Because there were so many things to be memorized and with the low tolerance for errors, many people might have to repeat their practice thousands of times before they could do it correctly.

Even after managing to do it once, they might not necessarily able to do it again afterwards.

"I think I made it," Ruben said with some hesitation as he raised the stone in his hand. "I can infuse mana, but I need five for one formation, so I’m not sure whether it’s right or not."

"Let me see."

Riya took the stone and looked at the formation drawn by Ruben. Some lines were a bit too narrow or too large, but overall, the formation was indeed done. It was just that based on this, the efficiency would only be 30% to 40% maximum.

"You made it correctly," Riya said, which made Ruben’s eyes lit up. "But some of the lines and details are not good enough. This formation could only work around 30%, which meant that the purification time will be extended by more than three times."

30%

This was honestly a low amount, but Ruben felt energized when he thought that he had only practiced for a few days.

"Does it mean that I have talent?" Ruben asked happily.

Riya looked at Ruben in amusement and nodded. "Yes, you have some talent to be rune master. However, your talent is not very high."

"It doesn’t matter." Ruben grinned. "Can I become your apprentice, Miss Riya?"

"…What?"

"Just an outer apprentice… There’s no one else who could use runes and formation, so I wish that I study under you," Ruben said solemnly.

Seeing Ruben being so serious, Riya thought for a moment.

It was true that there were no other rune masters in this world for the time being. After all, there might not be anyone else who came back from that world who specifically learned runes and formation like Riya.

Anyway, Riya looked at the stone in front of her. _{freēwebnovel.com}

"You can continue to practice this. I’ll sort out the runes that you need to memorize and a few rank 1 formation," Riya replied.

"Yess!!!"

"Also, a rune master is more suitable for magician. Do you have enough mana?" Riya asked again.

From the pile of stones beside Ruben, Riya guessed that he should have tried to make the formation for a long time. But if she was not wrong, Ruben is a magic warrior and not a magicians, so it would have been impossible for him to do this.

Unless he knew a method to restore his mana quickly.

"I used this." Ruben took out the magic core that he was holding. "I have different element from Sam and I don’t know what it is specifically, but we all can use the non elemental magic core. I eat it and then absorb the mana."

Riya looked at Ruben in surprise.

He knew very well that these magic cores came from the body of those magic beasts, right?

She had to say that he was really daring.

Looking at the magic core that Ruben showed, it was the lowest rank 1.

But…

"Did you feel any pain from your heart?" Riya asked solemnly.
