Runemaster in the Last Days novel Chapter 220

"Because the amount of contribution points would be lacking if you don’t follow to work," Mr. Thompson snorted.

He might pamper his son on daily basis but now that the world has changed, he couldn’t let his son stayed that way. If they wanted to live well, they had to work and Mr. Thompson couldn’t let his son relax all the time like he used to be.

Pera had to work too.

"But…" Pera frowned but he found his father looking at him coldly.

"You’re 18 years old, not 8 years old." Mr. Thompson snorted.

Hearing this, Pera could only stay silent. He actually wanted to go to his mother and file a complaint about his father. But knowing that his mother would side with his father rather than siding with him in some cases, he chose not to.

If he did, his father might only punish him.

These days hadn’t been easy.

Before long, Mrs. Thompson returned with a bright smile. "We can eat in the canteen today. Tomorrow, I’ll try to find that b*tch again."

The relatives of Mrs. Thompson were all poor and couldn’t afford to have a lot of contribution points.

But Riya was staying in the inner area.

Even if this was mostly because of her friendship with others, but Mrs. Thompson believed that her daughter had more contribution points.

In that case, why can’t she share some?

It would be good if they could also enjoy this blessing.

"Yes."

Mr. Thompson and Pera agreed.

They came out and headed to the canteen to eat. Of course, their meal was the cheapest porridge and water. Otherwise, their contribution points would not be enough for them to eat.

…

Sophia’s side

Stephen, Sophia’s older brother, looked at his sister who looked a bit different after coming back home from work today thoughtfully.

"Did you make a contract with Melly?"

Considering Sophia’s talent, or more like her lazy behavior, none of the people in the Carson Family expected Sophia to become stronger or anything like that. After all, not everyone was suitable to become magic warrior or magicians.

If Sophia just wanted to live a comfortable life for the rest of her life, then they would help to raise her until she got married or able to take care of herself.

But for the time being, it was enough.

"Yes." Sophia nodded and smiled. "Is it obvious?"

She had a conversation with Melly and formed an equal contract with Melly. In this way, Melly’s ability would be shared to her and she would be able to give order to Melly. In return, Sophia would help with Melly’s training, more than before.

Stephen looked at his younger sister and sighed. "Didn’t I tell you before that if you choose this path, you have to train Melly?"

Melly indeed become a bit stronger than before because of the non elemental magic core.

But the Carson Family had no intention to raise a powerful magic beast. They had heard from Samuel that raising the rank of a magic beast consumed a lot of resources.

This was one of the reasons why these magic beasts were rampart outside.
