Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 872

Capítulo 872: Continent W

Besides, magicians usually detect other people’s identity through their mana signature.

It was also because of this that once they have met once, it would be difficult for the other party to hide their presence from magicians.

Some people knew the method of restraining their breath or something similar, though.

This could help them to hide their presence to a certain degree.

But many of these methods had become useless upon reaching rank 7.

“It’s been a while.” Ruth came forward and greeted the two people politely. They have met back in City J Base, but at that time, Ruth didn’t have much position to talk with them nor did she have any intention of interacting with them.

After all, she didn’t think it was necessary.

But now that these two people were here to help Continent W in dealing with the crack, appropriate politeness would be necessary.

“It’s been a while.” Samuel nodded back.

Riya looked at the two people before her eyes moved towards Jonas Nolan. There was a flash of surprise in her eyes. “Jonas Kayak Haruki?”

“Huh?” Jonas Nolan was stunned.

Their first name in this world and that world was the same, but their middle name and last name might be different. It was also because of this that many of them didn’t really recognize each other in the beginning.

Because there were either too many people with similar names.

Or they were not entirely sure that it would be the same person.

“I haven’t used that name for a long time… how did you know… wait, you can’t be Sister Rei, right?” Jonas Nolan thought for a moment before his eyes widened.

The Haruki Family was destroyed because of some reasons and it was just a small family in that world. Not many people would pay attention to it and Jonas Nolan himself had to change his surname to his mother family in that world.

But it was not a big problem.

His mother’s family was a big and rich family, so Jonas Nolan was able to live well until the magic beasts’ tide happened and basically destroyed everything.

Since he didn’t use this name for a long time, Jonas Nolan didn’t react for a while.

“Ah, right.” Riya looked at the young man and then laughed. “I didn’t expect that Jonas Nolan would be that brat.”

“…Don’t call me brat!” Jonas Nolan complained.

He refused to be called a brat again!

In the Green Planet, he also has a rich and loving family, making his life relatively comfortable. It was also because so many people cared for him that he was trying his best to protect them as much as possible.

Jonas Nolan didn’t want to see anyone around him die again.

But looking at Riya in front of him, he also felt complicated.

Because when the two of them met each other, it was during their early stage of their arrival in that world.

He had only started to learn the basic as an alchemist while Riya was newly accepted in the academy.

The two of them met by coincidence.

And they didn’t have much interaction because not long afterwards, the Haruki Family was destroyed and Jonas Nolan took refuge to his mother’s family. His mother’s family lived in a completely different city, so he never had the chance to see Riya again.

“You still look young, little brother Jonas,” Riya continued with a smile.

Jonas Nolan had a deadpan look and rolled his eyes in annoyance. “But you actually tell me a fake name…”

“Rei is my nickname because there are some people who wants me to die in that world,” Riya replied with a shrug. “And because it sounds similar to a man’s name, I can avoid being harassed by some people who didn’t have any eyes.”

Thankfully, many magicians often wore robe and as long as she lowered her voice slightly, it would sound neutral.

In this way, she could hide her identity.

Jonas Nolan nodded in understanding. “Anyway, I’ll rely on you, Sister Riya~.”

Riya rolled her eyes. “Did you forget that I’m also of support force?”

“… But I heard you’re also quite strong in close combat.”

“No, where did you hear that rumor?”

Seeing the two people getting along well, Ruth’s expression was a bit strange. She didn’t expect that these two people had actually met each other in that world before.

Glancing at Samuel’s expression, Ruth chuckled. “You can interrupt them if you want to.”

“No, I want to hear,” Samuel replied.

The returnees rarely talked about their life experience when they were in that world. So aside from those who were famous and were widely talked about, the others’ life experience was more or less covered up.

Riya was included among the latter.

No returnee were familiar with her name and no famous rune master goes by the name of Riya.

As for the Rei that Riya mentioned…

There was no rune master goes by tat name either.

She might have used a completely different name when she was in that world for some reason.

‘Did she get chased by others?’

Thinking that Riya was one of the few returnees who died without seeing the grand magic beast tide, Samuel frowned slightly.

It was not known which one of them were luckier.

Those who died before the grand magic beasts’ tide or those who died during the grand magic beasts’ tide.

The former never had the chance to see the world’s destruction nor did they see their friends and comrades’ death. But at the same time, they were also facing many people who chased after them for some reason.

Because with their strength before their death, it was a bit difficult for them to die through an accident.

The most likely one would be for them to be murdered by others.

And this way of death… didn’t seem to be that pleasant.

But dying in the hands of those magic beasts were not exactly the most pleasant matter either.
