Runemaster in the Last Days novel Chapter 886

Capítulo 886: Pampering

Well, Samuel selectively chose not to think too much about the other returnees to compare. There were also others who were good at war of attrition, but he had to say that Riya was definitely among the top between them.

After all, even he was not as good as Riya in a prolonged and protracted war.

It would be very tiring for him to maintain the same state in a battle for a long period of time.

“No.” Riya rolled her eyes.

Samuel can kill a lot of these magic beasts in an instant. Why should she compete with him in this regards?

She’s not that stupid.

“Then…”

“How about if we just compete in how many people you can support.” Riya sneered.

Upon hearing this, Samuel was stunned and then looked at Riya helplessly. As a pure magic warrior who was focused on attack, Samuel was definitely not someone who could support others in battle.

Just thinking about it, Samuel chose to give up.

“That’s not possible…”

“Heh.”

The two of them reached the place where Jonas Nolan was drying the herbs and Riya nodded when she saw it. She didn’t recognize most of them, but she could guess that they should be quite valuable for Jonas Nolan to treat these herbs so specifically like this.

After all, his excellence was already known to many people.

“You’re back.” Jonas Nolan smiled in response.

“…It seems that you will take a long time.” Samuel saw the range of these soldiers and narrowed his eyes. Considering the vastness of the valley, it would definitely take a long time for them to sweep over the entire area.

“It couldn’t be helped. Not all of these herbs are easy to pick and I have to select them carefully,” Jonas Nolan replied helplessly.

It was not like he didn’t want to hurry since he didn’t want to stay here for a long time. Practicing here was indeed a good thing, but there were too many rank 7 magic beasts around and Jonas Nolan didn’t want to trouble others all the time.

He would rather wait until the continent had build a relatively safer base in this valley and then stayed here all the time.

Before that, it would be better to wait outside.

“I see.”

“I’ll try to be faster. Are you planning to go around to look for resources?”

“Yes.”

“Then, good luck.” Jonas Nolan smiled.

…

It took Samuel and Riya three days to travel all around the valley before they stopped going further. The areas afterwards were mountain range and neither of the two wanted to travel such a long distance without reason.

“I’m planning to head into the other crack and would like your help to let me pass through the formation, Miss Riya,” Ruth said solemnly.

She had managed to negotiate with the officials to allow her to enter the crack for a period of time before she departed to the other world. In return, she gave almost all of the resources she had gathered over the years in City J Base.

After all, Continent Z had never restricted her from getting resources on her own.

They would not stop her when she entered the crack either and through that method, Ruth was able to collect a lot of resources.

Most of them had been used when she advanced to rank 7 some time ago.

But the rest were still quite a lot.

The officials were quite satisfied with it and agreed to release her.

“Ok.” Riya nodded readily and then glanced at Samuel. Bringing another person with her would be a waste of mana and Samuel still had to stay here to protect Jonas Nolan because that was their original mission when coming here.

“You go.” Samuel was amused when he saw Riya’s expression. “Go back early.”

“I’ll probably stay there for a while,” Riya replied with a grin and then swiftly rushed out of the crack before Samuel could respond.

Seeing her playful look, Samuel arched his eyebrows and strongly suspect that it was his sister who taught Riya like this.

Tsk, that sister of his is really…

“You’re really pampering them,” Jonas Nolan commented when he saw this scene.
