Runemaster in the Last Days

Chapter 1064 - 1066: Sacrifice?

Riya had a bad feeling about this.

*rumble*

Hearing the movement in the passage, Riya frowned and then said, "Sam, your turn."

"I know. Father, I know that you want the war to be over as soon as possible, but unfortunately it's not possible in our situation. Unless we could be sure that the one who interfere will also make a move, I'll not take such a risk," Samuel replied and then cut off the call.

Swish!

Both Samuel and Riya knew that the one who made the move was the Green Planet's Consciousness.

But they didn't plan to let this matter be made known widely.

It's enough that there were some people who knew the truth like them and the others might not want to know...

It was unknown what they would think if they knew that the one who had manipulated the lives of so many people was actually their own planet. Their planet is not a dead object but instead a living being that had thought about its situation for a long time.

'The Green Planet's Consciousness...'

Riya murmured as Samuel and the others started to fight. One rank 10 and two rank 9 magic beasts have already come out of the passage.

And lower ranked magic beasts also came out in large number.

But most of them died before they could even get far because of the high pressure from these rank 9 and rank 10 magic beasts.

...

Long distance away, Continent Z, City A Base

Mr. Jones looked at his phone that had been hung up by Samuel and smiled bitterly. He heard the noise from the other side and guessed that some higher ranked magic beasts should have come out of the passage once more.

Even though they could watch the battle through the satellite images, but some of their battle often caused dust to be rising.

This made the image unclear.

It would be a lie to say that Mr. Jones was not worried about his son.

He hoped that the war could end as soon as possible and seeing the closed passage on Continent W's side, many other continents would definitely be moved.

They also wanted their own continents to make such a move.

Sacrificing the returnee...

It could be said that many officials would think that this is a worthwhile deal because these returnees were not that valuable in their eyes.

The information that the returnees brought back from their journey have almost been taken out and many people didn't really want to treat them so specially. If they didn't have any value, then they could be discarded at will.

'The politics are truly... nauseating.'

If it was possible, Mr. Jones really didn't want to get involved with such a thing in the slightest bit.

But City A Base is the place that he would like to call home.

He wanted to protect his family members as much as possible, even if this meant that he had to be put in difficult position.

So Mr. Jones had to endure this and stand at the forefront.

'The existence of something unknown, huh?'

Mr. Jones saw that the officials were also discussing about this matter. This was the first time they had heard about this...

No, this is not the first time.

They had long known that something or someone was manipulating behind the scene because for 12 people to experience 'transmigration' to the same world and them came back at almost the same time, it was definitely too much to be called coincidence.

The knowledge that these people had brought back could be considered to be life saver for the people on the Green Planet.

Everyone knew that.

Yet at the same time, they realized that the entire world had changed and what these people knew could be vital.

Could they be connected to the changes on the Green Planet?

It would be inevitable for some people to think this way when they saw how much destruction had happened on the Green Planet.

Unfortunately, all the returnees they have seen so far were 'ordinary people.'

They have no knowledge that such a disaster would happen. Each and every single one of them were trying to live a normal life while hiding the fact that they have returned from a magical world.

This was something that every continent secretly investigate.

Ruth took a long holiday, which caused her to land on Continent Z when the incident happened.

Jonas Nolan was still holed up in his study with his plants and had no intention of coming out.

Riya was living an ordinary life as a student and was studying well.

Samuel was indeed training, but he only did it in his free time and most of the time, he was still the young master of the Jones Family who managed their family business.

Dina was being the young miss of her own family and had no intention of spreading her magic practice in the beginning and only did it much later on.

Peter did say that he receive some inheritance but it was only for the sake of living a better life and training resources. But he was still enjoying his life and tried many things, which they could see from his clear interaction.

Murin often visited the pet house but aside from that, he didn't change his schedule much.

Pena was living in his home and continued being a recluse who didn't have much interaction with the outside world.

Leon was staying as a blacksmith and continued his work as if nothing ever happened.

Ami was going to work and home as usual without showing any changes in her deeds aside from being a bit bolder.

Navi was still the young miss in her family and continued to make trouble from time to time.

Nalan was getting closer to Navi, but he still lived an ordinary life.

Each of them didn't have the urgency that the world would end when they came back three years ago.

If the world had never changed, none of them would ever expose the fact that they were returnees.
