Chapter 1006 1008: Tarun Family
Riya simply used runes and directly let Marin told the truth.
In fact, Marin herself didn't know much and only knew how to follow the Tarun Family's instruction. It was her brother who knew more about this matter.
But even through her intermittent information, the two of them still managed to get something.
"Someone instructed your family... saying that my father had a brilliant future?" Riya had a strange expression on her face.
Her father had a brilliant future?
That greedy man?
She really couldn't see what made them think that her father would be able to achieve something great when his own achievement was broken like that.
"He did build his business, so he have some capabilities," Samuel said slowly. "But compared to many other businessmen, he had the convenience of the Tarun Family to be able to grow so much."
"And just because of a fortune teller, the Tarun Family make a lot of bet on various people's future..." Riya's lips twitched.
No wonder that the Tarun Family sided with the Magic Association and many of them even become magicians from the Magic Association. It was obvious that they should have followed this fortune teller's words and approached someone close to the current head of the Magic Association.
Or perhaps someone of the closer lineage.
Thinking about the personality of the leader of the Magic Association, Samuel was more inclined to think that it should be other magicians from the Magic Association.
As for who it is... He didn't know.
"What a good calculation." Riya sneered.
The only reason why her father could have a bright future would be if he were to support Riya. Because if his marriage was not destroyed and he still lived with his wife, perhaps their relationship could be repaired and then Riya would live in a normal family.
Even if there were some grievances with each other, it would not reach to the point of being irreparable with each other like this.
After all, no matter how much she disliked her father, she wouldn't really do anything to him.
Even now...
Riya didn't really do much to her father.
He was still living at the bottom of the people in City A Base and Riya basically didn't bother with his life. Whether he was living a good life or living at the bottom as a worker, Riya didn't care.
It was good that he didn't bother with her again.
"You can't kill me! He said that the laws will prevent you from killing your parents...." Marin was screaming.
After they all found out that the one with the real chance and the powerful one was actually the little girl at that time... it was already too late. When the world changed, they all thought that Mr. Taylor would have some great talent or something.
But things didn't go in the direction they wanted.
Mr. Taylor was weak.
So weak that he could be killed in one blow.
This made them question the fortune teller.
It was only recently did they found out that Riya is actually the rune master, a returnee who came back and had extremely strong power.
The fortune teller was not wrong.
But it was not accurate.
Because the person whom they should have curry favor in the beginning was actually the little girl whom they looked down a lot.
And their Tarun Family had long offended Riya to death.
Now, it was good.
Their entire family was sent straight to the passage and had to kill the magic beasts. It was unknown how many of them will die in this battle.
"I'm going to see the fortune teller." With a wave of her hand, Riya sent Marin to go to the passage too.
"I'll come with you." Samuel nodded.
"...Are you sure that the frontline will be fine without you?" Riya looked at Samuel suspiciously.
Compared to her, Samuel seemed to care more about the people on the frontline. It would be impossible for him to leave if he had no other reasons.
Though, the construction of the base and the existence of Peter and Dina meant that the frontline should be fine.
Samuel chuckled. "Yes. I believe in their strength. Besides, I still have to send a few more magicians from the Magic Association."
These magicians from the Magic Association were scattered all over Continent Z.
He had asked that the other vice leader was not here but in their other base. So after they were done with this, he wanted Riya to bring him to see the other magicians from the Magic Association.
But before that, it would not matter if they met with the fortune teller first.
"He's there."
The fortune teller was living in Tarun Family's residence.
It could be said that this old man had a high status in the Tarun Family because he was extremely valued by them. The advice that he gave from time to time allowed the family to grow up and obtained a lot of fortune.
So he had high status.
But when the world changed, the old man didn't have any talent whatsoever and could only rely on the connections that he had built over the years.
"...You're here." The old man didn't seem to be surprised when he saw Riya and Samuel coming.
The two people were staring straight at the old man's eyes.
They could sense the mana surging in the man's eyes and he should have an opportunity when he was young, allowing his eyes to mutate and see some lines of fortune. This is what allowed him to get connection with the Tarun Family and gave them various instruction.
"Why?" Riya only had one question.
When she saw his eyes, she understood that this old man might have been lucky or unlucky to have mana transformed his eyes.
But what she knew is that he didn't use this gift well.
Had he used it for other things...
He might not be reduced to be an ordinary man like this.
