Runemaster in the Last Days

Chapter 928: Their Pasts

Capítulo 928: Their Pasts

Buzz!

The sword continued to convey information and Samuel lazily also extended his perception to check the surrounding areas.

It has been a while since he traveled on his own.

From time to time, he would definitely fight with the magic beasts without other people’s help. But Samuel had been traveling with Riya for quite some time that he was getting used to cooperate together.

He had to say that having Riya around was really good.

Because she could cover up his back without the need for him to worry about it.

The protection of a rune master was really comprehensive.

Even if her attack power was far from comparable to him, the other abilities were definitely far better than him.

And when they cooperated together, the two of them would be able to deal with higher ranked magic beasts even at lower ranks.

At least, that was what happened in the past.

They managed to deal with rank 7 magic beast when they were still rank 6.

Despite that fact, they still couldn’t deal with the rank 8 magic beast and could only run away through the teleportation formation. It was not impossible for Samuel to try running away on his own, but the success chance was definitely not as high as Riya’s teleportation formation.

One had to say that in terms of escape, Riya was definitely among the top.

Space and time related formations were the most difficult formation to solve.

I twas not impossible to solve it through some methods that Samuel was not sure of, but it was definitely not easy.

Not many people would be able to do it.

Samuel had thought that there would be other rank 8 magic beast, but he didn’t expect that it would be nearby.

“I have to go inside,” Samuel said firmly.

Even if he knew that there might be rank 8 magic beast around this area, he couldn’t give up and leave without trying to enter his family’s place.

So many years have passed and even Samuel didn’t know what had been left behind.

But no matter what, he wanted to see it with his own eyes.

Buzz!

The sword buzzed once more, signaling Samuel that it was ready to accompany him whatever decision he made.

After all, the sword was made and chosen to accompany Samuel.

It’s the weapon selected by himself.

Swish!

Entering the ruined city, Samuel walked carefully and scanned the surroundings. Even with his heightened senses, he couldn’t sense the rank 8 magic beast that the sword warned him about.

‘It’s strange... Am I so far behind my own sword?’

Samuel had some doubts about himself and looked at his sword that was quietly resting on his hand. His sword should have reason for saying that there was a rank 8 magic beast here, but he couldn’t find any trace of this magic beast.

Hidden?

If a rank 8 magic beast were to conceal their breath and presence, can he detect them?

To be honest, Samuel was not entirely sure.

He was only a rank 7 magic warrior and his strength was far from being able to compare to those who were at the peak. While he was still getting stronger with his own practice, but the speed of his improvement had slowed down to a considerable degree.

The condition of the city was not any better than any other city he had passed through on his way here.

Seeing this place, Samuel could still feel his emotion being stirred up, anger and frustration that he once felt came up for a moment. But he suppressed it all the next moment because he knew very well that there was nothing he could do.

Magic to revive the death did exist.

But it was something only someone standing on the peak could possibly achieve and the price was not small.

Besides, the time when the person dead could also affect this technique.

Aside from this method that could fully revive someone, the other method that Samuel knew was only the necromancy technique that only necromancer could possibly do. But this technique will turn them into skeleton without any memory except for their battle abilities.

After all, the main reason why this technique exist was simply to let them use the dead in their battle.

It was not created to truly revive them.

Moreover...

Many people didn’t like the necromancer for various reasons, especially those who felt that they were disrespecting the dead by doing this.

It was unknown how much necromancer could garner hatred in such environment.

Samuel didn’t know either.

Tep.

Arriving in front of his own family’s residence, was looking at the place with strange expression. If he didn’t know better, he would think that he had arrived at the time when his family was still in glory.

That was if one didn’t pay attention to how bad the city situation is.

Because the residence remained relatively intact.

The family has several buildings separated and there were many people who were living in each place. There were also specific areas with specific use and so on.

Scanning the place, Samuel felt that it was still relatively clean.

It was odd.

“You don’t think that someone really did survive, right?” Samuel murmured to himself as he looked around the place.

If someone could truly survive after that grand magic beasts’ tide... they had to have either the ability or was simply lucky.

He pushed the thoughts down and started to check the areas.

First, he entered the main hall where the family used to have gathering and so on. He himself had been here several times, especially when there were meetings that would involve the family’s future and so on.

After coming in, Samuel saw that the place was dusty but intact.

He froze on the enetnrace, looking at the pile of skeletons on the main hall and was silent.

From their shapes, he knew very well that it should be these old people who gathered here, trying to protect the other people with their own abilities.
