Runemaster in the Last Days novel Chapter 126

"Brother is as ruthless as always," Amelia muttered.

"He’s a businessman," Sophia, whose family was the one at disadvantage, was calmer than Amelia. "Besides, in this special situation, it’s clear that only those who are strong will be able to stay ahead while those who are weaker had to accept that they’re weak. If they want to change their status quo, they just have to work harder."

Amelia looked at Sophia in surprise. "I don’t expect you to say something like that. I thought you will be devastated first."

Riya also glanced at these two but part of her attention was still on the matter below. She was not too close with Sophia and the others aside from the fact that they were all staying on the same dormitory floor.

After all, Sophia didn’t like staying in the dormitory.

She often went out to play and rarely came back. Whenever she did, there would be a quarrel with Ruby about their room’s arrangement.

"I like to play around but I also understand that in business, anything could happen." Sophia rolled her eyes. "Besides, even if my family stood at the top back then, it doesn’t mean that they would always stay on the top. If they want to keep their places, they had to keep working hard and be prepared for any situation."

This was how Sophia was raised in her family and Sophia understood that being in a big family was not that easy.

Would they always stay on the top?

No one could say for sure.

There were many businessmen who went bankrupt overnight because of a small mistake and the Carson Family was unwilling to follow their footsteps. For this reason, they would have to work hard when they were doing their job to prevent themselves making mistakes that could be avoided.

And for this kind of disaster, Sophia had long known that she would not be able to live the same as she used to be.

But it was fine. _{ƒreewebɳovel.com}

Because she believed that sooner or later, she would be able to live comfortably in her own way.

"Don’t worry," Riya said slowly. "I’m sure you’ll do great."

Sophia’s talent in meditation was really high, so she would be able to become a mage quickly. But considering that Sophia liked animals more, the beast master’s path would be more suitable for her.

Unfortunately, Riya didn’t have much knowledge about this path and Sophia would have to open up her own path.

The only thing that Riya could do was to help Sophia strengthen Melly and made sure the two of them could grow up. As for how their path would be in the end, that would be up to Sophia.

"Thank you, Riya. I feel more reassured with your words." Sophia grinned.

Riya nodded and then looked down again. There were people coming in.

"Those are people from the Lawson Family and the Black Family," Amelia introduced. "The Lawson Family had a lot of malls before and they should have a lot of resources. But it’s not so easy to take these resources back with so many magic beasts out there."
