Runemaster in the Last Days novel Chapter 8

Chapter 8: Strange News

Riya opened her eyes and heaved a sigh.

"The first few ranks is very easy even for those with lower talent. But once you get higher, if your foundation is not stable, the breakthrough wouldn't be easy."

Sighing, Riya moved to her table and took out a stack of paper and water. She actually wanted to use beast blood, but she realized that it was actually harder because ordinary beasts' blood couldn't transfer mana easily.

In the end, Riya settled with water.

Talisman making required high precision and concentration. During her time in the magic world, Riya made a lot of talisman for the sake of protection. It was because she knew very well that her skills were low.

Talisman could also be called as charms, magic scrolls, or many other words. They were imbued with mana in order to work in accordance to the formation or runes that was placed on them.

Talismans could be used for defense and attack.

For Riya, it was very useful.

There were several other side professions in the magic and warriors world such as blacksmith, alchemist, formation master, talisman master, poison master, puppet master, beast master, and many others.

Riya herself learned formation, talisman, poison, and medicine.

She was mostly afraid of others harming her because the safety of ordinary magic trainee was not guaranteed there. If they were not careful, they would fall into the traps of others, so Riya always stayed low and practiced quietly.

Because she didn't take many missions, she was not usually remembered. Being able to obtain the treasure in the end was half due to luck because it was indeed not something that someone in her position could covet.

The side profession was also useful for her to obtain additional money to buy magic resources.

It was truly a grueling four years.

'Done.'

Riya looked at the defense talisman in front of her in satisfaction. With her current mana, she wouldn't be able to make even one talisman. But the Advance mana Gathering Formation helped her to be able to make one talisman a day.
