Runemaster in the Last Days

Chapter 995 997: Confession and Proposal

In the end, Riya ran away for the second time and Samuel laughed out loud when he saw her red face.

She looked really adorable.

After a moment of laughing, Samuel walked out of the mansion and planned to find his father. There were still some discussion that he had to do.

...

For the next few days, Samuel and Riya were really busy.

Ruben was following Riya when she built the teleportation formation for other city bases and he had to say that he still had a lot to learn.

Seeing how Riya was at ease in building these formations, he realized that the only thing holding Riya back is the materials.

She would only subsidize some materials.

The rest had to be prepared by these city bases themselves or by Continent Z as a whole.

After all, Riya also needed many of these materials for her own protection and it was impossible for her to take them all out for the continent.

"...I think it's impossible for me to catch up with you, Master." Ruben sincerely felt the gap between their talents.

Even though he was said to be quite talented among the other rune masters, Ruben could see that this was far worse than Riya.

If it was Riya...

She would be able to do what he couldn't do in a short period of time.

"I have more experience," Riya said leisurely and chuckled. "If you have experienced the same thing as me, who knows how you'll fare."

Ruben shrugged and shook his head.

He felt that Riya was only consoling him, so he didn't take her words to heart. Anyway, his progress was already good enough.

What left was nothing more than to implement it.

Riya didn't have much time to teach Ruben and after answering all of the questions that he wanted to know, she focused on other things. There was indeed some time disorientation for their bodies.

Having experienced living in a completely different world for a period of time with time slowed down, their body was adapting.

Since she had strengthened her body, the effect was not that obvious.

But for those with weaker bodies... this might not be a good thing.

"It's done."

Upon finishing the last teleportation formation, Riya immediately left to City A Base. She had no intention to stay here and communicate with these people.

Ruben, who was tasked to be the communication tool with the officials, was also dragged back by Riya.

Ruben: "..." Wait, it's not done yet!

Seeing how impatient Riya is, Ruben really wanted to face palm.

When he saw Riya ran towards Samuel, he understood the reason and silently moved away, planning to contact them by phone to finalize the negotiation.

Anyway, with Riya like this, it was unlikely for her to finish any of those negotiation on her own.

She has no interest in these things.

"You're done?" Samuel smiled when he saw Riya trotting over.

"Yes! I'm so tired from drawing so many formation." Riya clicked her tongue. She had already taught Ruben how to make the rank 5 teleportation formation.

If any of those formations were broken, it would be up to him to repair it.

Anyway, his knowledge was good enough.

It was impossible to improve in a short period of time and Riya had already handed him the book to let him learn until rank 7.

After that...

Well, it would depend on which law he chose.

Since everyone's path would differ upon reaching rank 7, Riya chose not to write anything yet and planned to summarize it later.

But for now...

Let her spend her time with her boyfriend.

"Then you can take a short break." Samuel chuckled and then pulled Riya's hand.

"Hmm? Where are we going?" Riya arched her eyebrows and then saw a document was handed over to her. She looked at the content and her expression froze. "This..."

Samuel tilted his head and smiled helplessly. "I originally planned on a better occasion, but there didn't seem to be any chance."

After that, he took out a ring from the pocket. Just one look, Riya knew that this was a magic weapon instead of an ordinary ring. After all, the two of them were busy fighting on the frontline and ordinary jewelries had no meaning for either of them.

It would either be scrapped or just tossed in a corner where it couldn't see the light.

"I commissioned this to Leon after my return," Samuel admitted helplessly.

He didn't have any talent in this area and if he made it himself, he didn't know when it would be finished.

Even though Samuel did have some thoughts about making it himself...

Well, he could try in the future.

But for now, he could only use the one that he had commissioned Leon to make.

"This is a communication ring and I made a pair. The function is simply to communicate with each other. On the Green Planet, we can still communicate with each other through technology, and so on. But if we end up in another world again... I don't want to be unable to contact you." Samuel was looking at Riya solemnly.

"I know that the two of us are in such a dangerous environment. We might end up losing our lives if we're not careful enough. I originally didn't dare to hope and I want to wait until we're in a better situation. But the moment I saw you coming back, I knew that there are some feelings that I can't hide and I can't wait any longer."

There was also the pressure from his parents, but it was not what made Samuel decided this.

"There's no better place than this mansion... so I don't bring you to any other place. Will you marry me, Riya?" Samuel asked earnestly.

Riya stared at Samuel blankly and then a smile blossomed on her face.

"From the moment I have decided to be together with you... of course, I want to marry you."

With that, Riya hugged Samuel and he leaned his head down, locking their lips on a kiss.
