Runemaster in the Last Days novel Chapter 914

Capítulo 914: Remaining Spoils

“By the way, did you not plan to keep some for yourself?” Peter asked as he pointed at the pile of magic cores that Riya put on the ground.

“Huh?”

“You asked us to divide among ourselves, but aren’t you also use up your own resources when you fight against that rank 8 magic beast?” Peter pointed it out rather bluntly.

The fact that rune masters often used up a lot of resources during their battle was not exactly a secret.

Almost everyone know about it.

It was also because of this that any battle with the rune masters would often turn into a battle of resources.

Whoever has more resources would be the one with most advantage and might win the battle quickly. It was also because of this that in an arena battle against rune master, they would usually put restriction that they were not allowed to use their ‘resources.’

It might be a bit unfair.

But in the arena battle, this was basically the only method for them to win against the rune master.

Otherwise…

It wouldn’t be a battle based on capabilities but a battle based on wealth.

Many people back then were also quite wealthy, but they were definitely couldn’t compare to many of these rune masters.

Especially the rune masters who have accumulated their wealth…

“I don’t really need it,” Riya replied honestly.

Her world was more or less had already formed and seemed to be quite stable to a certain degree. While Riya couldn’t say that it’s the best world out there, but the mana concentration was quite high.

Coupled with the plants that she had transplanted and also various seeds that she planted, Riya realized that the world had started to be self sustaining.

It could also produce mana on its own.

Riya was somewhat amazed by the world, but she chose not to pay too much attention to it. Because she honestly didn’t know how she could nurture the world to make it grow or something like that.

Perhaps there was some records about these world treasure…

Unfortunately, Riya didn’t know where to find it nor whether it would be possible for her to nurture it further than this.

“Are you sure?” Samuel turned to look at Riya in surprise.

Even though Riya often took some losses when doing business… or it was more like, Riya felt the price was already good enough for her and what the middlemen could obtain was up to their abilities, it was rare for Riya to give up from the very beginning.

Samuel felt that it wouldn’t be good for them to take advantage of Riya like this.

He himself took some of the magic cores and planned to keep it temporarily. Besides, he did collect a lot of them from before.

“Mhm.” Riya nodded. “If I had used up my resources, there’s really no need for us to fight that long.”

On one side, Riya didn’t want to use up the resources she had collected. The mana stones were far more precious than the magic cores that they could easily collect from the magic beasts.

On another side, Riya also wanted to know whether it would be possible for them to defeat the rank 8 magic beast.

Peter shrugged, not caring too much about it.

In his opinion, Riya’s willingness to let them all work together to fight against the rank 8 magic beast was already very good.

After all, Peter knew that he couldn’t run away from that rank 8 magic beast.

Riya and Samuel could easily escape.

One is a rune master, the other can use lightning element to increase his speed and possibly avoid the rank 8 magic beast’s range very quickly.

And then there was also Ruth whose main element was wind.

Both wind and lightning elements were known to be fast, so Peter would not be surprised if they could run away even without Riya’s help.

As for him and Dina?

He was not sure of himself and Dina didn’t seem to be able to run away either.

So without Riya’s help, him and Dina might be the one in the worst situation after fighting that rank 8 magic beast.

Just because of this favor, neither Peter or Dina were willing to make things difficult for Riya.

“Anyway, just divide the magic cores in accordance to our number.” Dina waved her hand. “I’m taking Ruth’s portion and you take Peter’s portion.”

“Got it.” Riya saw the others nodded and simply divided the magic cores in this way.

The five of them rested for a while and then cleaned up.
