Runemaster in the Last Days novel Chapter 42

Time passed quietly. It has been a long time since the incident and one way or another, the Taylor Family was quiet.

Riya heard from Amelia that the donor list for them was pushed down again somehow, which caused them to make a lot of troubles and had no time to bother her. For Riya, this was the best news because she could focus on other things that she wanted to do such as her thesis and so on.

In any case, a few weeks or months without the Taylor Family bothering was simply the best.

At this time, Amelia suddenly returned to the dormitory with a black face.

"You’re back?" Riya asked tentatively, not sure why Amelia come.

Amelia nodded and declared, "I’m running away again from home."

Riya: "…"

This is not the first time.

In fact, she should be more surprised that Amelia didn’t run away at all for the past three months.

"What happened?" Riya asked.

"I’m annoyed at my older brother." Amelia took a deep breath. She felt that most of the conflict that happened at her home came from her relationship with her older brother that didn’t turn out well.

"I see. Eat some ice cream to cool down."

"Ok!" Amelia happily went to the refrigerator and looked at the content. She was surprised to see that Riya had filled a lot of food inside. "You stock up quite a lot."

"I applied to stay in the dormitory until the entire semester is over."

"How’s your thesis?"

"It’s done. Yours?"

"…I haven’t done it."

Riya looked at Amelia speechlessly. She seriously wondered why did Amelia wanted to enter the university in the first place?

Forget it.

It was not her business if others wanted to play around. At the very least, she came here for the sake of learning and had learned quite a lot.

"Forget about it. I’m here to tell you that we’ll all gather together this afternoon. Sophia won the bet with her brother and had a lot of money to spare, so she’s treating us tonight."

Won a bet?

Riya looked at Amelia speechlessly.

She was sure that the bet that these children have would be in thousands or even hundred thousand of NA currency.*

Forget it, she didn’t know what was in the mind of these rich people.

"Come on, let’s go and have fun!"

"Ok, ok."

…

Knowing that she couldn’t win against Amelia, Riya followed the former to the KTV that belonged to the Carson Family. In fact, she highly doubted that the Carson Family bought this place for Sophia alone.

On the way, Amelia was also looking at the phone to text the others. "Claire couldn’t come. She might be busy with some other things."

"You’re also aiming to become a doctor…"

"I’m aiming to be a vet and not doctor! Please, there’s a huge difference between the two! Now, sing on the stage!" Sophia pushed Ruby to the front and the loud song started.

"Yaaaaaaaa!"

Riya: "…" why did I get together with them in the first place?

She felt that she, Ruby, and Claire were all dragged by their roommate one way or another. The fact that they were all from different faculty didn’t help either because they were somehow arranged together.

The loud song filled the room, making Riya dizzy.

But the other two were enjoying it very much while Ruby could bear with it as she had already experienced Sophia’s craziness many times in her dormitory. This much is nothing for her.

"I’ll take a short break outside."

"What?" Amelia glanced at Riya. She couldn’t hear what the other party was saying because of the loud song.

"I’ll take a short break outside," Riya replied, this time using her mana to focus the sound wave to Amelia’s ear.

"Oh! Okay!"

Riya nodded and walked out of the room, closing the door and stood there. The loud song from inside was perfectly contained by the room.

It seemed the sound insulation was not bad.

"Fiuh."
