Mr. Salma stopped with bewildernt.
Riya looked at Mr. Salma in front of her with contemptuous expression and lightly raised her hand. The next mont, a wind blade ca and pierced through Mr. Salma's chest.
Thud!
Everything happened in a split mont.
From the defensive magic to offensive magic, the two magics were done one after another within the split second as if there was no need for them to prepare. This kind of speed… not many people would be able to do it.
Samuel looked at Riya with narrowed eyes.
That spell casting speed was even faster than him, who was basically combining his magic with his sword. Technically, his magic should have been easier to use but Samuel could see that Riya was faster than him.
So much faster that if he was not careful, he might die.
"I assu you have finished talking?" Riya asked, her tone was colder than before.
Mr. Salma's little trick, how could these two people fail to see it.
They both knew that Mr. Salma wanted to take advantage of the situation and try to attack Riya because she looked weak.
Or rather, because he thought that won were weaker.
While most won were physically weaker, it didn't an that they could attack them easily. There were many powerful won magician in that world alone that could cause countless destruction.
In any case, the two of them were waiting.
Riya wanted to see what Samuel would do while Samuel wanted to see how Riya would handle the situation.
So it ca to this scene.
Seeing that Samuel would leave the man be, Riya would naturally be annoyed.
"Yes." Samuel didn't mind that Riya's temper was raised towards him. Anyone who was tested like that would definitely be angry. "And it seems that you're really strong, Riya."
"You can say it that way," Riya responded lightly and turned around to leave.
"Wait. Where do you want to go?"
"Is it your business?"
Samuel looked at Riya, who was looking at him with such cold eyes and for a mont paused in his steps. He really didn't like seeing her looking in his direction like that.
It seed as if the two of them were bitter enemies.
Samuel took a deep breath and slowly said, "Even if you have so abilities, running around the wasteland is still difficult. How about if we go together?"
Going together?
Riya looked at Samuel and rolled her eyes. "So that you can test again?"
While she knew that his action was reasonable from his point of view, Riya still didn't want to stay with Samuel. She felt that if he was going to pit her again, it would be better for her to stay far away from him.
Anyway, Riya believed that she was strong.
There were not many magic beasts that could contend against her.
Even if there were so magic beasts that were stronger than her deep underground, she would not go there anyti soon.
Samuel looked at Riya and slowly said, "I think the more appropriate word is to protect and watch over you."
"I don't need your protection, Senior Samuel," Riya replied and continued walking away.
Seeing Riya's stubbornness, Samuel also felt rather helpless. He knew very well that she was unwilling to stay near him and there was basically nothing that he could do about it.
Was he wrong for wanting to know her ability?
The first ti he saw her in that apartnt, he felt that Riya was quite a peculiar girl with interesting vision of the future. He chose to talk more with Riya because he wanted to know how she see things.
And from her past record, she seed to be a trustworthy friend for his sister.
Afterwards, she kept on getting into troubles because of her family mbers and Alia ca to him to ask for help. That was the first ti he saw her being so stubborn and brave, wanting to fight against the powerful Taylor Family.
While the Taylor Family was nothing to him, it was different for Riya who was only a fresh graduate student at that ti.
Later on, Samuel also saw her sharp side when she fought with Valeria along with Alia. Then her friendship with these girls when they were laughing and picking the stones together.
She looked very lively.
But now…
What Samuel could see was a powerful and cold Riya, the image that completely contrasted what he had seen before. Even when she was fighting against those magic beasts and now killing people, there has never been any shift in her expression.
It was as if everything was taken for granted.
Perhaps he should have realized that from the mont Riya took out those talismans to Alia that she was not an ordinary person.
There was sothing missing from the investigation he had done.
After all, he didn't investigate her deeply after knowing that she was basically an 'orphan' who was unwanted by both of her father and mother.
"Do you want to deal with the few magic beasts around Business District Base?" Samuel changed the conversation. He knew that if he asked more unnecessary questions, he would most likely provoke Riya further.
This made him realize that perhaps, he should see Riya as a powerful magician rather than Alia's friend.
Riya didn't answer and continue walking away. Seeing Samuel also started walking, Riya took a deep breath and waved her hand.
*roar?*
The white tiger saw Riya's black face and tilted its head cutely in confusion.
"It's ti to go." Riya patted the white tiger back and then it rushed forward towards Business District's Base.
Yes, she planned to go there.
But she had no intention to go with Samuel.
Samuel saw this and stopped walking towards Riya. He took a deep breath and walked towards his own motorcycle.
At this mont, he felt that he had ssed things up.
For now, it would be better for him to rush towards Business District's Base first.
