Runemaster in the Last Days

Samuel arched his eyebrows and smiled faintly. "You've changed."

"Aren't you the same?"

Is he?

Samuel looked as Riya finished making the formation and took out a formation plate from her space storage scroll before handing it over to him.

"This is…?"

"You hand it over to them," Riya answered calmly. "I'm too lazy to go over and meet with the general again."

Those people just like to talk nonsense and never got to the point. Sometimes, Riya really wondered whether they knew how to talk correctly or not when they were talking in circles like that.

Samuel had a strange look on his face before he nodded. "Got it, I'll pass it over to them."

He could tell that Riya was treating him as a close friends right now. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to trust him with so many errands like this.

But at the same time, it doesn't feel enough.

However, he didn't dare to step forward too quickly in fear that he would make mistakes and possibly push her away.

"Anything else?" Riya noticed Samuel's gaze and looked back in confusion. "You're not thinking that I'm too lazy, are you?"

From the beginning until the very end, Riya has always been too lazy to deal with the politicians. Because their words have never been the truth and instead covered with various lies and empty promises.

Only some of them truly took their words seriously.

The rest were nothing more than people who took the crowd's money for their own leisure.

Even after the world changed, it was impossible for those politicians to truly unite or anything like that. They have their own interest and so on, which was too annoying to hear.

"No, I don't like talking with them either," Samuel said calmly. "But being able to trick them and get advantage over them is very satisfying."

Riya laughed.

It was no wonder Samuel has always been said to be the black hearted businessmen by those politicians.

With the way he has been doing things, it was not an exaggeration to say that he was the one who tricked those politicians to make his own wallet fuller. If Riya was not wrong, their expression when they saw her and then saw Samuel was completely different.

"Not many people can trick those black hearted politicians," Riya said with a chuckle. "It seems that you have successfully entered their blacklist."

"If they dare to put me in blacklist, they would not be able to continue the trade that we have established," Samuel said lightly. "A true businessman can smile even when they're facing the person they hate."

Riya: "…"

She silently gave thumbs up.

If it was her, she knew very well that it would be impossible for her to smile in the face of someone whom she hated.

As Riya's minds turned, she looked at Samuel curiously. "You're not thinking of tricking them again this time, are you? They have already bleed a lot to make the formation for the people in City J Base?"

Samuel raised his finger and knocked Riya's forehead. "What are you thinking in your mind here? Of course I will not think about tricking them again at this kind of time. But if they wanted to make other trades, then I'll entertain them well."

He might be a blackhearted businessman who liked to make profit, but this didn't mean that he didn't have any heart.

Knowing the current situation of the world, it would be better for him to focus on other things. Because Samuel also didn't want the world to collapse and no one would be happy to see the death of so many people all over the world.

The world had already suffered enough and there was no need to add more of these.

"I know." Riya chuckled when she thought about what those people would think when they faced Samuel again in the future.

It seemed that the situation would be no different from usual.

No wonder she heard from Ruben that the officials prefer to look for Mr. Jones instead of Samuel. They must be worried that they would have to suffer a lot in the negotiation with Samuel.

"By the way, have you ever met with Dina and Ruth before?" Riya thought of these two people.

"Hmm? I think you have asked this question before?" Samuel tilted his head and then said, "I have met with them once or twice but didn't really talk with them. There's a martial arts competition and I think I meet these two people there."

Martial arts competition…

Riya racked her brain to think about this event before remembering what Samuel meant. She chuckled. "I heard about that martial arts competition… if I'm not wrong, all of you are rank 6 when competing, right?"

"Yeah, I think it's on our third year nearly the fourth year in that world?" Samuel tried to remember the details. "But I don't see you."

"I don't participate in that competition," Riya replied. "Those rune masters are too weak and I instead compete with their masters."

Samuel: "…"

That was indeed awesome.

He had the feeling if those arrogant geniuses knew that Riya could already compete with their masters instead of them, they would definitely feel deep unwillingness. After all, the gap between them and their master was really big.

Before Samuel could asked more question, the two of them heard the piercing sound of eagle.

*screeeech*

Looking up, Riya narrowed her eyes. "It's Murin."

Samuel sneered. "I thought that he would not come here at all."

When he came here and unable to find any trace of Murin, Samuel guessed that the other party was unwilling to come for some reasons. After all, their relationship with each other couldn't be considered good.

They had fought against each other a lot in the past.

So much that it would not be an exaggeration to say that they wanted to kill the other party.

Now, Murin came here.

Not only Riya and Samuel, Peter, Dina, and Ruth, also noticed Murin's arrival and their expression turned to the worse.
