Runemaster in the Last Days

"Yes?"

"How many returnees are there in Continent Y that you have found so far?" Pena repeated, his tone sounded even more dangerous than before.

"Yes, there are a total of three returnees from Continent Y and there's a massive beast tide that happened on their place… one of them passed away in this attack," the higher up replied.

Three returnees from Continent Y

Five returnees from Continent Z

Two returnees from Continent W

And one from Continent X

A total of 11 people have been found…

"Give me their information."

"Yes!"

Pena looked at the three people's name in front of him and rubbed his chin in contemplation. "This dead woman's corpse… bring her to me."

The higher up was stunned by Pena's request. "Mr. Pena, she's in Continent Y and it's far away from here. There's no way we'll be able to get her…."

"I don't care. Bring her body here."

"…Yes."

The higher up cut off the connection afterward and Pena sneered when he saw that. He didn't care too much about the attitude of these people and raised his hand.

A skeleton hand handed over his notebook.

"This woman is a rare soul magicians… since she has passed away, I would like to use her bones and create a soul skeleton magicians." Pena's eyes burst out in brilliant light. If he could get his hand on her body, he was sure that his future skeletons would be very powerful and could use other magics.

After all, his ability would depend on the materials used for his skeletons.

There were a lot of limitation but if he could get a very good materials… then it would not be an exaggeration for him to built a big army that was unmatched in the entire world!

"Hehehehe."

A wretched laugh came out from his place and the other soldiers who were guarding shivered. They felt that the higher ups were too much.

Pena clearly didn't need any protection whatsoever. Enjoying the story? Discover more on M|V|LEM6PYR.

It was his enemies who needed to be warned about this treacherous man!

…

Long distance away, Continent Y, one of the city base.

Continent Y has a lot of land. Even though the land's shape was different from Continent Z, it was still a large continent. Because of this similarity, they also built bases on the destroyed cities after the earthquake was over.

There were many bases and each bases were named after the city's name.

If one wanted to say, it was really similar to Continent Z.

And recently, they somehow provoked a big battle with the magic beasts and attracted a large number of magic beasts to attack. Several bases were swarmed with magic beasts and they had no other choice but to fight.

Because if they were to run away, it meant that they had to abandon the base and the people who were living here. This was definitely impossible to do. There were thousands to hundred thousands of people in all the bases that were attacked by the magic beast.

So they had to call over the returnees to help guarding the base for a period of time.

But it was impossible for these returnees to be so selfless and protected the base with all their lives.

If the situation turned to be unfavorable to them, they would not hesitate to abandon the frontline and sneaked away.

After all, nothing is more important than their own lives.

Or at least, that was how it is for most of them.

"Ami died," a man said in deep voice when they rested for the night. There was only one large frontline to face these magic beasts. A wall that was built to block the advance of the magic beasts.

The three returnees all gathered here to fight together.

Each of them would be responsible for one of the sides.

"Huh?" A female voice answered him and the woman who was sitting on the ground raised her head. She arched her eyebrows and sneered. "I have told her countless times that she's too kind hearted. What's the point of sacrificing her life for these rotten people?"

They were ordered by the higher ups to help with the war and deal with the higher ranked magic beasts in the magic beasts' tide.

This alone had made them very tired.

Because for some reasons, there were higher ranked magic beasts coming out up to rank 7 magic beasts.

For them, whose highest rank was only rank 6, it was definitely a hassle to deal with a rank 7 magic beast.

"She has to deal with the rank 7 magic beast on her own." The man shook his head. "Stupid Ami."

"That's quite an evaluation coming from a guardian warrior, Nalan," the woman chuckled.

There were many types of warrior that one could pursue. For example, Peter chose to be a pure physical warrior who would attack with his physical bodies at all times. There was also Ruth, who was more of a magic warrior but her attack ability was that of an archer.

Now, Nalan is a guardian warrior, whose path was that to protect those behind him. The choice of weapons were usually sword and a shield with variety of the shape and types of their shield and sword.

"Even if I'm a guardian warrior, I have no obligation to protect those whom I don't acknowledged," Nalan replied indifferently. "Use your five magic elements, Navi."

The woman, Navi, only smiled faintly and chuckled. "You're as annoying as ever, cousin."

The two of them were siblings and it was also because of this that the two of them recognized each other instantly. Forming a team of two, the two of them were famous in Continent Y because of their fighting capabilities.

The higher ups also came and asked them to fight for them.

Of course, with some benefits offered to them.

"If I'm not your cousin, I would not bother to protect you," Nalan said coldly.

"How cold." Navi chuckled and then looked at the distance. "But that's good enough."
