Runemaster in the Last Days

Chapter 1112 1115: Amelia

Amelia was looking at the people who were busy in front of her with a dazed look.

The passage was closed yesterday, but she felt as if it had just happened not long ago, which diluted her joy of reaching rank 7.

She should have been happy.

But instead of happy, Amelia was simply sitting on the verandah of the Jones Family's Residence with her hand holding the necklace that Riya had prepared for them.

When did Riya prepare it... Amelia had no idea.

Perhaps when she was still in another world or before her departure.

As for when she had come back...

That's absolutely impossible.

Amelia didn't believe that Riya would have enough time to make these trinkets when she was busy with the preparation for the grand magic beasts' tide.

Riya didn't tell the others about the Green Planet's Consciousness's matter.

Not even through any message.

So they couldn't understand why Riya and the others chose to leave through the passage at the last moment.

Perhaps, they thought that this is the way out.

Or they thought that this just a stopgap measure.

None of them truly explained.

And the Green Planet's Consciousness clearly didn't want Riya to explain clearly about the future. It wanted the people to wonder about the future and didn't try to self destruct.

Because magic will change many things on the Green Planet.

Without the Green Planet's Consciousness's supervision, it didn't know whether the Green Planet would be able to survive long in the hands of humans.

The good things is that those real high ranked magicians were all people with good self awareness aside from the few returnees.

After all, the government basically invested most resources on the soldiers who could help them to defend against the magic beasts. They were also the most talented ones and everyone had passed the screening before being selected.

No one wanted to let people with dangerous thoughts to become the strongest person on the Green Planet.

That's why the Green Planet's Consciousness believed that there wouldn't be any major problem on the Green Planet in the recent period of time.

As for the future....

That's not something the Green Planet's Consciousness would concern itself with.

How humans eventually destroyed themselves were not something the Green Planet's Consciousness was interested in to watch.

The Green Planet's Consciousness also didn't care about the people who were left behind by the returnees.

Granted, most returnees no longer have any family members.

But they still have some friends and others who might have some connection with them, left behind on the Green Planet for they were unable to go along with them.

Riya and Samuel might be the one having the deepest connection with the people here.

The Green Planet's Consciousness did nothing to stop them.

No, rather than stopping them, the Green Planet's Consciousness even let them interact with their family members more before Riya truly realized what the Green Planet's Consciousness wanted them to do.

Now, Amelia was at loss.

She has the power that she wanted.

But she was no longer in the mood to appreciate it.

She didn't want to train either, feeling that it would be pointless and that blindly training wouldn't result anything.

Besides...

Even if she were to do something, can she change the past?

Change the fact that her brother and her best friend had left her behind on the Green Planet for some reasons.

Faintly, Amelia could hear the sound of laughter and crying from outside.

Some soldiers and others still lost their lives in the grand magic beasts' tide.

It was inevitable.

Riya, Samuel, Dina, and even Peter were working hard to take on the greatest burden and protected the people behind them as much as possible. But it was impossible for them to take care of others all the time.

At the end of the day, they had to save themselves.

If they were not strong enough then they could only accept this fate.

Pssh...

"It's cold!" Amelia jumped back and glared at Arnold, who had come to her back with a can of juice in his hand at some point of time. He pressed the cold can of juice on Amelia's cheek, letting the cold startle her.

Arnold smiled. "This is the new type of juice that the research institute made. Try it?"

Amelia looked at the bottle and saw that it was indeed a new brand that she had never known before.

Then again, there were a lot of new brands rising in the past few years after the destruction of the old society.

"Okay." Amelia pursed her lips and took the can before she looked at Arnold up and down. She could see that there was a huge black circles around his eyes, indicating that Arnold hadn't actually rested properly.

For them who were fighting on the back, they were basically working in three shifts, so everyone were only responsible to fight every eight hours. This would guarantee that they could replenish their strength in time and would not have to fight to their death.

It was a humane system.

But this could only be given to those who supported from the back while the returnees have to fight 24 hours a day.

They have no break whatsoever.

And it was because they have the ability to fight that they were given the position to fight on the frontline like this.

"...What did the people from the research institute made every day?" Amelia couldn't help complaining after she tasted the juice. It felt quite good, but she didn't understand why they would even compete jobs with the businessmen.

"You have to ask your friend for this." Arnold had no idea about it and he sat beside Amelia, looking at the people walking back and forth on the street.

At this moment, Arnold was relieved that he had no work to do.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to be able to stay here and accompany Amelia.
