Samuel nodded. "Yes, because I'm also planning on going."
After receiving that message, Samuel has been thinking.
Would being a rank 7 magic warrior be enough?
There was still a year's time and normally, their speed of improvement would not allow them to reach rank 8 in just a mere 1 year.
It was also because of this that the returnees were more or less only competing secretly to reach rank 7 but not any higher. Any improvement would take a long time and there was no guarantee they would be able to reach higher rank anytime soon.
The second earthquake meant that the crack below had changed.
As for how much it had changed, they didn't know for sure. There were too many magic beasts for them to go in and check on their own.
And so far, the cracks were sealed.
"Together?"
"Yes." Samuel nodded and gave a gentle yet determined smile on his face.
He understood that Riya will definitely focus on strength improvement before reaching rank 7.
For almost all returnees, they had seen the powerful people from that world and had experienced so much. Who would have time to think about other things. Even if they still socialize with other people because human is basically social creature and that they were about to embark on a lonely path, they would not spend that much time with other people.
Most of the time, they would stay alone.
So Samuel simply positioned himself in the way that allowed him to accompany Riya the most.
Practicing together is the best way.
He could see that she was focused on training and gathering resources, so he kept his distance while getting closer bit by bit. During their time in the crack, they have faced several life and death's crisis.
Seeing each other in various states, yet he felt that his heart continued to beat for Riya.
That was when he become a bit bolder.
And it was good.
Perhaps it was not as romantic as his brother who was chasing after his girlfriend and made great fanfare, but what Samuel could say is that he will be sincere and wholehearted.
"Good." Riya saw Samuel's look and felt a bit flustered for some reasons. She nodded and looked away, feeling somewhat shy.
It was unreasonable.
Yet, she couldn't stop the blush on her cheek. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
His current look was simply too foul.
Brrt.
Sensing her phone vibrate, Riya arched her eyebrows and took it out. When she was in the crack, her phone couldn't receive any signal, so she was used to toss it far away and completely forget about her phone's existence.
