"It's beautiful, isn't it?" Riya turned her head and looked at Samuel with a bright smile on her face, her eyes were sparkling like a child who was showing off her favorite toys to her friend.

Samuel looked at the scenery around him and hummed in a low voice.

Riya's magic… could be extremely beautiful.

Even though most people might be afraid of what Riya might do when she was angry, but Samuel felt that the girl in front of her is really beautiful.

She's just like an excited child, but this energetic sight made his mood better too.

So Samuel has a smile on his face and hummed. "It's very beautiful."

Riya blinked her eyes, not realizing that Samuel was basically staring on her face directly instead of looking at the scenes out there.

"I'm going to collect these corpse eater flying magic beasts~."

Samuel saw Riya's energetic appearance and smiled faintly, "I'll help you."

"Yeah!"

Only the pilot was left behind, looking at the extreme scene around him. The entire ruined city was covered in ice.

For the first time, he understood why Riya and Samuel seemed to be taking the phrase 'destroying an entire city' so lightly. Because when they reached rank 7, this was something that they could do.

It was no wonder that rank 7 corpse eater flying magic beasts were also so hard to deal with.

If it was not for Riya and Samuel's cooperation before, they might have long died in advance.

'But… such a powerful magic skills, your focus is on whether it's beautiful?' The pilot's lips twitched.

He had the feeling that as long as he was still Samuel and Riya's pilots, he would be forced to eat a lot of dog food.

Being a single dog is really miserable.

…

City A Base, Amelia and Arnold's side

While Riya and Samuel were busy with their attempts to clean up these corpse eater flying magic beasts, the others didn't know much about it. After all, dealing with the rank 7 magic beasts that came out of the cracks were their main priority.

Since both Riya and Samuel hadn't returned, they simply guessed that these two were busy with rank 7 magic beasts out there.

It was not known how the situation in the crack is.

But as long as there were no rank 7 magic beasts coming to City A Base, it was actually a good thing.

Mr. Jones was not in a hurry and busy with various meeting all days, so Amelia was not worried. She even took her time to relax and play with Arnold.

Some people explored the areas around City A Base, trying to find some magic beasts to hunt and kill. They felt that it was necessary for them to go out and try their luck. There were not many magic beasts before because the people in City A Base were too capable.

They cleared out the areas, making it extremely save.

It was good for the ordinary people but those who wanted to practice will have to travel further distance if they wanted to practice.

Now that there were more magic beasts, they decided that they should go and fight against these magic beasts. Anyway, if they could hunt the magic beasts, they would be able to get resources.

In the past, the best way for them to get resources would be to enter the crack.

But who would dare to enter the crack?

They were afraid that they would die!

Some of the braver ones followed the military into the crack to hunt some magic beasts. Even if they were only picking up the scraps, but it was still much better than staying outside where it was so clean.

Unfortunately, this condition only apply to City A Base.

Other city bases were not so lucky.

They could indeed get resources more easily but at the same time, they had to risk their lives more than the people in City A Base.

"It's so empty…" Amelia looked at the street in front of her with blank look. She thought that she could rest and enjoy some time together with Arnold, but seeing the somewhat empty city, she felt a bit restless.

Because this meant that there were many people who were busy to hunt magic beasts but she was instead staying here…

Amelia felt a bit guilty.

"There's no need to compete with them." Arnold shook his head. "The military and the returnees are doing a good job in protecting City A Base, but other people also need to grow. Give them this chance and I'm sure that they'll be happier."

Amelia heard Arnold's words and nodded somewhat absentmindedly.

She just felt that walking around in this situation didn't seem to be very pleasant.

But if she was asked to go out and hunt magic beasts, Amelia also didn't want it.

"If you don't want to go shopping, how about if we visit your brother?" Arnold asked.

The brother he meant this time was naturally Amelia's younger brother, Sean, who was busy in the hospital. He didn't know what that young man was thinking to run to the hospital all day long.

Oh, he might be there because he wanted to spend his time together with his girlfriend.

There was nothing wrong with this, though.

"No need." Amelia rolled her eyes.

Who would want to find Sean?

That brat has been showing off his love life to her all the time, making her itching to beat him up.

The two of them had nearly demolished their living room last night and her mother's scolding was still fresh in her mind.

She didn't want to make trouble and got scolded for the second time.

Once is enough.

"Alright. Then we'll just walk around and see if they need some help," Arnold said dotingly.

Even if their elements were not suitable for construction, it was not like they couldn't help at all.

"Yes~."

At this time, a voice called from the side.

"Arnold? Is that you?"
