Arnold was silent.
Amelia took a deep breath and raised her head to look at Arnold in front of her. Her expression showed a certain kind of determination and encouragement.
He has experienced a lot of losses and didn’t really want to see anyone close to him died again.
It was painful.
But Amelia was right.
"Life is short, so just enjoy it?" Arnold said slowly.
Amelia chuckled. "That’s right~. I don’t know how long I’ll live or what I’ll experience in the future, so what I can do is to enjoy the current life I have."
Besides, another reason why she could do this was because there were many people who pampered her and allowed her to do whatever she wanted. No matter what she wanted to do, there will be people who were willing to support her and allowed her to live well.
So Amelia’s outlook of life was still very positive.
"Alright..." Arnold sighed. "Let’s deal with him next time and discuss it with the others."
"Good." Amelia smiled happily, showing the dimples on her cheek.
Seeing Amelia like this, Arnold felt his hands were a bit itchy and wanted to poke her cheeks.
She’s really cute.
This was the only thing that Arnold could think of as the two of them reached City I Base.
...
Inside the Crack
After a long time walking around and killing unknown number of magic beasts, the two people finally reached the pillar where the rank 6 formation was located.
Of course, along the way, they have already obtained another rank 5 special magic core.
Samuel was still not interested in it and left it to Riya while she kept it inside her world so that she could give it to the others later.
"This is the rank 6 special magic core, right?" Samuel asked for confirmation when he saw the familiar formation and pillars.
To be honest, he couldn’t see the differences between these places one after another aside from the fact that after the third one the entire place would turn blood red. The scenes were really eerie and Samuel felt that it was hard for him to see it.
Because he understood that the blood red markings meant warning.
"Yes." Riya stretched her hand. "Based on estimation, we took around a month to reach this place... which is not much different from before."
She was trying to estimate the strength between these formations inside the cracks and the result was not surprising.
After all, there was restriction to the shape of the formation due to the calculation and so on. Riya had some estimation about the direction but since this formation was basically build in 3D shape, it was not so easy to calculate everything.
Even Riya still has limitation in this regards.
Her brain was not supercomputer that could calculate everything clearly so quickly and she needed time to sort out everything.
"Do you need help?" Samuel asked.
Many things after rank 7 had become relatively intangible and hard to describe. Riya knew very well that achieving rank 7 would become the very first step for her to truly become a high ranked magician.
This is a step that many people wanted to take but unable to do so.
’Calm down.’
Taking a deep breath, Riya studied the formation for a while before taking the special magic core and walked out of the formation calmly. She headed to the formation where Samuel was located and activated the formation, sending them far away from this place.
Swish!
Seeing the different scenery around him, Samuel sighed. "No matter how many times you use it, I still feel amazed by the teleportation formation."
"I think that you should have used it very often in the past," Riya said without hesitation and walked towards a stone and sat down while holding the special magic core in her hand.
"Are you planning to take it now?" Samuel’s eyes revealed surprise when he saw this.
Riya nodded. "Don’t worry. We’re far away from the formation and even if it activated, it’ll only harm the nearby magic beasts."
Samuel nodded helplessly.
Those formations definitely only harmed the magic beasts because they ran fast enough.
"I’ll guard."
"Thank you." Riya smiled and started to absorb the rank 6 special magic core. The process didn’t really take that much time and soon, the special magic core dimmed.
