Runemaster in the Last Days

Dependent on magic?

Amelia blinked her eyes, not quite sure about it.

After all, magic has only appeared on the Green Planet for a short period of time and there were not many people who had extensive knowledge of it.

If there were people who knew more about these, it would be those returnees.

But each of them had their own specialties and Amelia had the feeling that neither Riya or Samuel had extensive knowledge about the effect of mana in human's body.

"Well, I see." Amelia looked at the mirror in front of her and saw that a bandaid was stuck on her cheek.

There was a glass shard that passed by after the counterattack shield was shattered. The injury was small, though, so Amelia didn't have much concern.

She just felt that she looked a bit strange.

"Take some rest. There are many people who have changed profession who are busy all day long. It seems as if they didn't care about their lives and death," The doctor said while mumbling under his breath.

It seemed that he was cursing these people who didn't know how to take care of themselves.

Amelia was silent and could only showed a weak smile.

Well…

She couldn't really say anything about it.

The term changing profession might have been taken from games since they did have to pick a profession when they started training. Either to become a warrior, magic warrior, or magicians.

It was up to them.

Even though they could switch from one profession to another before reaching rank 6, but not many people wanted to waste their time practicing without result. Only those under rank 1 would try each path to see which one was the best for them.

After they had some strength, these people naturally started hunting magic beasts on their own.

Because if they didn't try to get more resources on their own, it was estimated that they would not be able to survive.

For example, a warrior required a lot of magic beasts' meat and mana for their training.

If they only worked ordinary jobs that the base offered to them, it was estimated that they would end up starving to death.

So it was inevitable for them to go out and hunt these magic beast.

As for how long this will last…

Amelia didn't know.

That ant nest from before had already told her that the magic beasts were slowly turning the Green Planet into their habitat. There might be places where these magic beasts were growing and reproduce.

No matter what, it was unlikely for these magic beasts to disappear any time soon.

'Hmm?'

Amelia saw that the emergency room's light was turned off and she quickly stepped forward. "Doctor, how's Brother Arnold?"

"Don't worry, he's fine." The doctor looked helpless. "Since he's a magic warrior, tell him to replenish his energy and mana quickly to help him speed up his recovery."

The doctors in various bases have already come into contact with these people with special professions. They knew that these people couldn't be calculated based on their previous standard and had to use a completely different standard.

Unlike ordinary patients who needed to eat light food, they needed a large amount of food instead.

"I know, Doctor." Amelia looked a bit helpless.

She thought about her younger brother who had fire element and felt that she should kidnap him to help her cook some food. After all, her own element was wind and lightning, which had nothing to do with cooking.

Or… should she learn to cook with lightning?

Amelia felt that she would end up roasting the entire meat until it was scorched instead of cooking properly.

Well, forget it for now.

Arnold was brought to a VIP ward, which Amelia paid for. Since they were planning to stay in City I Base temporarily, they also had an ID card of this base and had sufficient contribution points.

These contribution points would be used when they needed to buy some things from the base.

For these rich people, the things they traded out were nothing much.

But the people in City I Base would be very happy to receive it.

"Brother Arnold, do you bring portable kitchen?" Amelia asked when she saw that Arnold was not sleeping and only lying down on the bed.

Arnold sighed and took out a space storage scroll before taking out a portable stove. "I think you mean portable stove… you can't exactly take kitchen around."

"Ahaha…"

Amelia laughed dryly and simply took the rank 4 magic beasts' meat along with a pot to start cooking.

She didn't have much talent in cooking, but making a soup was still possible.

After all, it was not that difficult.

"Brother Arnold."

"Mhm?"

"Who's Nicholas Ramsey?" Amelia asked while waiting for the food to be cooked.

Arnold frowned for a moment before sighing. When Nicholas was present in the past, Amelia was not there, so she had never met with the other party.

But…

He contemplated whether to tell Amelia about this brother of his.

Nicholas has always been an unpredictable person and Arnold felt that nothing good would happen whenever he was around.

Yet at the same time, Arnold didn't want to lie to Amelia.

"If it's not convenient to say, you don't have to say anything, Brother Arnold," Amelia quickly said. "I don't want to make you think that you have to answer."

"There's nothing hidden. Your own brother also knows about him." Arnold rubbed his head and sighed. "Well, he's my younger brother. We have different surname because of my parent's divorce back then… I think you should know that my parents are divorced, right?"

Amelia nodded.

She heard about it during the conversation with Samuel and the others when they were younger.

Though, the young her never understood the meaning of the word 'divorce' until she was older. After all, Amelia didn't really have IQ that far surpassed her peers or anything like that.
