Runemaster in the Last Days novel Chapter 461

"Well, you can just state out the real drawback through this method and it should deter some people," Peter said.

"Yes?"

"Demonic Magician will never live past the age of 50 unless they reached rank 7," Peter said. "No matter what age they started and if they started above the age of 50, I estimated that they will only have their strength for a week at most."

Governor Zachary was stunned and he looked at Peter in disbelief. "How…?"

"Well, the demonic magician can only learn the method that was taught by their predecessor. But from the moment they meditated using this way, they're actually connecting their link with the founder, which I estimated to be Dina Alden," Peter replied. "So after their death, she can conveniently take part of their power through this link, which will increase her strength faster."

Peter guessed that Dina should have reached rank 5 and experienced how hard it is to advance after reaching this rank. After all, the magic beasts that came out were only rank 3 to rank 4 at the highest.

If she wanted higher ranked magic beasts, she had to enter the crack.

But how could it be so easy for them to enter the crack?

Unless they have full confidence in themselves and willing to bet their lives, they would not be willing to enter the crack in their entire life.

So the other way for demonic magician to become stronger was if their 'follower' died.

So this should be the reason why Dina spread out this method.

"This…" Governor Zachary felt chills on his back when he heard this. He felt that the demonic magicians were indeed very cruel.

They were basically taking other people's entire life's hard work for the sake of their improvement. And the number of people who had lost their lives for them was countless…

It was really terrifying.

"Is it that bad?" Peter asked calmly, his tone didn't fluctuate in the slightest bit. "Perhaps you will think that becoming a demonic magician is a path without any future, but at the same time, it's also the brightest path in the dark side."

Governor Zachary: ???

Seeing the confusion on Governor Zachary's face, Peter laughed. "All paths will eventually lead towards one point but the paths taken are all very different. Because there's only one main purpose for all practices."

To be stronger, to live longer, to live freely…

These reasons were gathered together during their practice.

"But everyone had different reason why they choose to practice…"

"Yes, they have different reasons but it doesn't matter that much," Peter said calmly and then stood up to wash the blood on his hand. He has been fighting a lot and felt that he should wash up a bit.

Otherwise, the sticky feeling of blood on his hand doesn't feel that good.

"The demonic magician…"

"There are a lot of profession in that world, but why do you think the demonic magician's path has never been erased?" Peter asked back. "It's not only because they're powerful but there are many people who want this rapid advancement. Not everyone can stand being patience and practice step by step."

"We're still young, so even if we know that the demonic magician's lifespan could only last until we're 50 years old at most, how many people will think about it?" Peter asked back. "What's the normal lifespan of humans in our era?" _{ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com}
