Runemaster in the Last Days

Chapter 1023 1025: It’s Up to You

For the sake of their future, they didn't hesitate to destroy other people's happy family.

She would not defend her father or mother because they have their own weakness and possibly made a mistake.

But if it was not because of them, the situation might not have escalated as much as it was before.

It was just...

It's pointless to think about the 'what if.'

Riya knew very well that everything happened in the past has been set in stone and she didn't have any hope of changing it.

The problem is, she couldn't help but feel annoyed whenever she saw the Turin Family members.

And one of them was Cero, her half younger brother.

"Do you want to throw them to the pile of the magic beasts?" Samuel asked, not caring too much about it.

"So blatantly?"

"No one will say anything even if you do that."

With Riya's current status, no one would question what she did.

Even if some people might disagree with her action because they didn't understand anything, they would not stop Riya from doing what she wanted to do.

As for Samuel...

He knew the entanglement between Riya and the Turin Family.

And Cero could be said to be the one who benefited from the fallout between Riya's biological father and mother. Because without their divorce, Cero might not have been born in the first place.

But it's really hard to judge such a thing.

Because logically speaking, Cero hadn't done anything wrong to Riya.

Perhaps, he did make some snide remarks behind Riya when she couldn't see, but he was not like Ciera who would come towards Riya and made trouble openly.

So Riya hadn't done anything to Cero so far.

Besides, Samuel had already given the order to Ruben to do the same to some of these magicians from the Magic Association who were making trouble not long ago. Adding a few more people would not make any difference.

Samuel didn't care too much about his reputation.

In fact, he felt that it would be better to be feared by people because it would be harder to control them otherwise.

There were too many people who have suffered on the Green Planet.

Laws and order have been rewritten several times due to the changes on this planet.

In Samuel's opinion, to make sure that the people would still listen to them, it would be better for them to fear the returnees. Even if they were not afraid of all of them, it would be good to fear some of them.

In this way, they would not make any unnecessary move because of this fear.

'...Are you sure that you're not the devil instead of me, Samuel?' Dina, who listened to Samuel's words from the side, felt that Samuel should have been feared more than her who's a demonic magician.

Even she felt that her action of letting many people become demonic magicians and then took their mana after their death pales in comparison with Samuel who directly threw these people to their death.

Then again, Dina didn't care even if these magicians from the Magic Association died.

They were really annoying.

The magicians from the Magic Association who came from ordinary background were better. But those who were in power were extremely annoying and Dina herself also wanted to kill these magicians from the Magic Association.

She just didn't make any moves because Dina didn't want to make the reputation of demonic magicians worse than before.

"Hmm..." Riya looked at the few members of the Turin Family who were lucky enough to stay alive and then said, "Let them just fight normally."

Whether they could survive or not depended on their fate.

The only thing she could give them was the karma formation so that Cero wouldn't be able to do anything to her.

Or rather...

If he wanted to do anything bad, he would have bad luck in the end.

"It's up to you."

Samuel chuckled.

Bang!

Seeing that there were more and more magic beasts coming out, Riya pursed her lips. She had just planned to fight when she saw Samuel stretched his hand and blocked her path.

"It's my turn this time."

Riya had already used that Ice World Destroying Formation not long ago.

Even though Riya's mana had recovered somewhat, it would be difficult for her to use another formation of that level again so soon.

It's better to let him be the one to step forward.

"I thought that you're going to let the soldiers fight on their own," Dina commented when she saw Samuel standing forward.

"That's the original plan," Samuel replied. "But it seems that there are more magic beasts in this place than expected."

The number of magic beasts coming out of this passage was so numerous that Samuel was also wondering whether the Green Planet's consciousness wanted them all to die. With so many magic beasts, it would be a miracle for the soldiers to hold them back.

'Or perhaps, from the very beginning, the Green Planet's consciousness never have any plan to let the soldiers fight on their own.' Samuel's lips curled up slightly.

To be honest, Samuel had no idea about the battle situation in other places.

But given from the fact that the Green Planet's consciousness dared to let so many people died just for the sake of the race or its own survival... Samuel had the feeling that the other returnees might have been forced to fight outside their free will.

In a way, it could be said to be very frustrating.

And perhaps... also disgusting.

Samuel himself fight because he didn't want to lose this planet where he came from and his family members who were living on the Green Planet.

But the Green Planet's consciousness would not have such concern.

As long as the Green Planet's consciousness could survive, then it would do everything it could in order to do so.

Many things that humans didn't dare to do, Green Planet's consciousness would not have any qualms.
