Hearing that familiar voice, Riya quickened her pace. She didn't want to encounter Ciera and her brother again. Thinking that they were also in this university, Riya felt a bit of headache.
The only good thing was that they didn't study in the same faculty so the chance encounter with these annoying people should be lesser.
"Wait, Sister Riya! Why can't you wait for me?" Ciera shouted, trying to stop Riya who had walked in the distance.
"Classmates, Ciera is calling for you." A boy stopped Riya who had wanted to leave by blocking her path.
Riya looked at the boy and frowned.
Was it another person who was captivated by that Ciera or it was because of Ciera's background?
"Move," Riya said lightly and then used her magic to make him unable to move and bypass him easily.
The boy frowned and looked at Riya's back, feeling strange. He looked at Ciera apologetically.
"Sis…" Ciera pouted when she saw Riya disappeared into the library. She had just come out after being 'hospitalized' at home. During the time the mist appeared, she had to stay at home and her father strictly forbid her to go out.
Thankfully, there were doctors at home who could help her to wash her blood to help her maintain her condition. As for the operation?
The hospitals were too busy with countless cases due to the mist not long ago.
There was no time for them to care about other patients.
Now that the mist had disappeared, people's lives had returned to normal and Ciera also came to the university.
She thought that she would be able to play the good sister with Riya again to coax the other party, but the latter had disappeared.
Well, she could do it again next time and there might be some unexpected result.
Even if there's none, her father had already arranged for someone to take Riya away secretly in the near future.
When Ciera thought about this, she was in a good mood.
In the library, Riya registered with her student card before entering the large library. She browsed the archive first and then determined the location for the books before starting to read.
'There's nothing that mention about magician or any kind of practice.'
Riya sighed slightly.
But she knew that it was indeed obvious. If there were still magicians in this era, they should be hiding and they would have their own community.
How could other people enter so easily?
Putting the thought back, Riya continued to read the book. She had to settle all the knowledge point in the next few weeks. It wouldn't be easy even if she used to know these things.
Riya continued her study as a 'normal' student but still spent her time meditating and working on her farm. Plus, she bought many other things that she might need such as power generator, shelves, and many other things.
Ciera still tried to bump into Riya on purpose, but she simply left and avoided the other party. With Riya's magic's skill, Ciera was not even able to get close. It seemed that her situation was worsening, so she wanted to target Riya's kidney even more. This made Riya felt rather annoyed.
For the sake of her kidney, she refused to meet with her sister.
Even if she was a magician, this is still a country ruled by law. She couldn't possibly kill Ciera in the open.
So the matter kept on being delayed.
In the matter of the farm, Riya had more chicken and ducks. The others still need to wait until the children were born. She planned to consult to the vet about these animal's birth.
Looking at the spirit rice that finally grew up, Riya was happy.
Eating spirit rice was more delicious than eating normal rice.
The only problem was that Riya had to spend more time harvesting and processing the spirit rice. She bought the necessary machine to process rice and also to process the milk. With these equipment, it has become much easier but will still take some time.
She also grew some other fruits and arranged for formation inside that will allow them to grow into special fruit. This process took time, but Riya didn't lack any time. With the help of her formation, the world had absorbed a lot of mana.
Three months passed by quietly.
The snow that previously piled up had long melted and the temperature was slowly rising.
Riya's magic had advanced to Magic Rank 3, but there were not many differences in her outer appearance. She still looked like usual and without probing her carefully, they wouldn't be able to detect that she's a magician.
Though, Riya really didn't dare to get close to other powerful magic warrior like Samuel.
She was worried that he would find out.
At the same time, she had finished her thesis and the defense. All that left was some revision to be done before she could finally process some administration documents and apply to graduate.
Looking at the list of things that she had to prepare, Riya honestly had a headache. There were too many of them.
It was really annoying.
If it was possible to just graduate without having to care about these things, it would be the best.
Alright, she was just joking.
During the past three months, Riya hadn't seen Amelia and the others. They still chatted in the group, so Riya knew that the Jones Family was attacked by some people who wanted to take advantage of the current situation.
They didn't succeed, though.
Even if Riya didn't know the detail, she still saw Amelia gloating in the group while her cousin sighing from time to time. Sophia and Claire were both eating melons and happily sent some gif or pics from time to time.
It was really peaceful that made Riya felt that her worry from before was unnecessary.
Unfortunately, this peace was temporary.
Because her annoying family members were contacting her. And this time, they even moved the school.
