Runemaster in the Last Days novel Chapter 587

Chapter 587: I Know

"Do you think that you can advance faster, Sophia?" Stephen asked as the two siblings walked out of the walls along with the other people who wanted to take their chances and the military.

"Brother, you know very well that I’m not weak." Sophia chuckled as she patted Kaze whom she’s riding right now. The horse neighed as it moved forward slowly but surely. "Does the Carson Family really thought about making a connection with the magic association?"

As Sophia got stronger and stronger, there were many people in the Carson Family who were jealous of her.

They hoped that they would be able to take her place and experience the ’pampering’ from the family. With so much resources in her hand, Sophia had already reached the peak of rank 3 by now.

But to enter rank 4, she still needed a chance.

Samuel had already told them that advancing to rank 4 was a matter of talent and also hard work. Because it would not be easy for them to advance to rank 4 in such a short period of time.

For Amelia to be able to reach rank 4 ahead of others was the manifestation of her talent.

Not everyone would be able to be like her.

And when Sophia reached rank 4, she would be able to contract another magic beasts, which would boost her fighting power considerably.

"Grandpa is already wavering before we leave," Stephen said calmly. "But it’s not that surprising, isn’t it?"

With how Old Master Carson was so obsessed with power and control, there was no way he would be willing to leave any chance for the Carson Family to rise so quickly. He had already seen how Sophia advanced quickly and there were also people who were working in various different fields.

If one had to say, Old Master Carson really knew how to utilize the ’resources’ in his hand, which are his descendants.

It was not an exaggeration to say that the Carson Family truly thrive in his hand.

Back then, he succeeded.

Now, there was no reason why he could not succeed.

"Well, he already inserted people into business, economy, and even military in City A Base." Sophia sighed as she leaned on Kaze, holding onto the horse’s hair and said, "But the progress in the Martial Arts Association is not very good."

The Martial Arts Association was just like its name.

If one wanted to advance quickly through ranks in that association, they had to either become strong to the point that they could be depended on or they had to invest a lot of resources.

Peter’s position in the association was extremely special and those who were close to him would be able to get preferential treatment.

Unfortunately, he only has one friend inside.

His other friends were also returnees who had their own power.

None of them would be willing to come to the Martial Arts Association and become his ’lackeys.’

For other people who entered the Martial Arts Association, the best thing they could do was to work hard and climbed up. Unfortunately, this is also a matter of talent and not many people would be able to do it.

"He’s not willing to invest so much resources on uncertain things," Stephen said calmly. "Even though the Carson Family is big, but he’s quite cautious and would invest in limited amount. In this way, even if you fail, it would not hurt the family too much."

Because he hoped that his sister could stay in the safe place for the rest of her life without the need to worry about these things.

Unfortunately, fate is not so kind.

It was simply impossible for Sophia to remain the same when the world had changed like this.

"We’re going to City I Base soon." There was a smile on Stephen’s face. "In the next few months, make sure that you work hard."

"I know, Brother~."

The two siblings laughed at each other and then started to work hard once more. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

They knew very well that if they wanted to be able to get away from the Carson Family, they could only rely on each other.

For this, they needed power.

But they would not abandon their friends like Victoria but to walk together alongside them.

Because both Sophia and Stephen knew that it was impossible for them to go forward on their own.

Why should they gave up on their sincere friends?

It was impossible for them to get so many good friends without luck.
