Runemaster in the Last Days

Ruben paused in his steps.

He looked at Sean in front of him with strange expression and slowly asked, "Do you want to go back?"

They have been staying in City I Base for more than half a year. Ruben knew that Sean missed his girlfriend and the two of them called each other repeatedly in the past few months.

But it was inevitable that Sean would miss her very much.

From what they had known, Joan had advanced to rank 4 some time ago and made good improvement. Her light element was very suitable for her professions and Joan was happy to be able to help many people in the hospital.

"Do you want to see Joan?" Ruben asked back. "It's not realistic to go back on your own with your current strength. Unless you can reach rank 5… otherwise, it's better for you to stay in City I Base honestly."

Rank 5 again.

Sean's face turned a shade darker when he heard Ruben's words.

If he could reach rank 5, he would not have asked this question in the first place. After all, Sean knew very well that with his current speed improvement, it would be pipe dream for him to reach rank 5 anytime soon.

"It's really hard," Sean muttered in a low voice.

Ruben looked at Sean helplessly. "Otherwise, just wait until Samuel and Riya come back. With their help, you can definitely go back to City A Base quickly."

Even if the number of magic beasts out there had decreased with their effort, it was still dangerous for them to travel such a long distance on their own. After all, Sean was not extremely powerful or anything like that.

He's only a rank 4 magic warrior.

And right now, there were already many rank 4 magic warriors in the military. With the effort of the country, they were pushed forward, reaching the height that many people couldn't reach in their lifetime.

After all, Sean could clearly feel that his advancement to rank 4 was not so smooth.

There seemed to be a layer blocking him, which made him have to train harder and harder.

For this reason, he was also the last one to advance to rank 4.

"I… I know," Sean finally said.

Seeing Sean was still staring at the backyard, Ruben silently took out his phone and sent a message. He was not close to Sean, but there should be someone who could talk with Sean more freely.

After sending the message, Ruben left.

Sean sat on the chair, still looking at the backyard while thinking about Ruben's words. He has been following his brother for a long time and in the first place, the reason why he started practicing was also because his brother ordered all of them to practice.

It was hard and tiring.

But it was worthwhile.

At least, in this changed world, he would not be someone who was washed away by time and all. It has been more than a year since the earthquake happened and the situation out there had stabilized.

Many people had become stronger, there were no other outrageous magic beasts' tide, and everything seems to be going in the good direction.

And Sean felt at loss.

His talent is average, his ability in various aspects are average.

Does he really need to continue torturing himself in the practice?

Practice has never been easy. It required him to spare some time and repeated the content of the practice over and over again. It was so tiring that Sean didn't know what to say.

Many people worked enough just for them to live.

If he really wanted to, he could actually not do anything because his family background allowed him to live a salted fish life.

But what did he really want to do?

Sean felt at loss.

Bam!

And what greeted him was the iron fist of love from his sister.

"Ouch, ouch, Sis! Do you have to attack me out of nowhere?" Sean wanted to cry when he saw Amelia standing behind him with her fist clenched. He swore that his sister's violent nature was completely unleashed in the past year.

These magic beasts didn't only make their lives difficult but also made people who used to be doing well to engage in violence…

"Hmph!" Amelia snorted and then pulled a chair to sit down beside Sean. "Ruben texted me, saying that you want to go back. Are you lovesick, homesick, or it's because of another thing?"

She knew her brother well and Amelia could guess that if Sean could be so troubled, there should be more troubles. It shouldn't be because of lovesickness because Sean has never been such a love brain dead person.

As for homesick…

To be honest, Amelia didn't think that Sean would miss their parents that much.

They were all living in their university's dormitory in the past and if it was not because of their parent's urging, it was estimated that they would not go back in the slightest bit.

They wanted to stay outside more than going back.

"Well…" Sean looked at his sister and then said, "I'm just thinking that my talent is really bad and that I might have a completely different option if I go back…."

In front of his sister, he didn't mind telling these things.

Because he knew that his family members were wiling to listen to him and would not be perfunctory.

It was his blessing to have such family members.

But at the same time, he was also troubled by his own poor talent.

"I want to be like brother or you, but I feel that I have no talent to become a magician nor a warrior," Sean said in a low tone.

He felt that he was really useless.

Perhaps his talent could be considered average… but what was the good in it?

Compared to these geniuses, he was nothing more than a burden.

Right now, Sean really felt like giving up and take other paths.
