Full-Time Magister: Dark Throne

"I should have only let him use the basic Shadow Step technique!"

At this moment, Dean Xiao was filled with regret upon learning that He An had instantly killed Xie Wuyai, who ranked tenth on the Shadow System list, using only the Giant Shadow Nail.

He just wanted He An to put down the arrogant attitude of those talented students.

He hadn't expected He An to be even stronger than he had anticipated.

Those top ten players who possess special dark matter and a full set of top-tier magical tools, and who have dominated the rankings for many years, couldn't even withstand a single move!

Despite years of hard work, he was no match for He An, a freshman who had just entered the main campus.

It's easy to imagine how shattered these students' resolve to follow the Dao could be!

"Knock knock knock!"

Just as Dean Xiao was filled with regret, He An knocked on the office door.

After obtaining Dean Xiao's permission, He An entered the office.

"Dean Xiao."

When Dean Xiao saw that it was He An who walked in, his expression softened slightly.

"Ah, it's He An. How's it going? What ranking are you on the leaderboard?"

Because He An used the special effects of the Great Black Heaven to travel quickly within the Pearl Academy, Dean Xiao had not yet received the news that He An had become the chief of the Shadow Department.

According to his calculations, He An should have just reached fifth place on the leaderboard at this time.

"Dean Xiao, I have become the chief of the Shadow Department," He An replied calmly.

After a two-second pause, Dean Xiao quickly recovered, leaned back in his office chair, and smiled with relief.

"As expected of someone they all value, he is indeed extraordinary."

Dean Xiao sighed softly, got up and opened the drawer of his desk.

He took out two round vessels and placed them in front of He An.

"This is the reward for ranking first in the exchange student training and becoming the chief of the Shadow Department. Open it and take a look."

He An stepped forward and gently opened the lids of the two round vessels, from which a white gas used to protect the items overflowed.

As the white mist dissipated, two objects with different shapes appeared in He An's sight.

"Dean Xiao, what is this?"

He An pointed to the seemingly ordinary little stone in the vessel on the left.

It looks much like any other pebble you can find along the riverbank, all grayish-white, and its shape is perfect for skipping stones.

He An recognized the items in the vessel on the right.

That's a Star River Magic Artifact, which can accelerate the cultivation speed of high-level mages.

The chiefs of each department are all mid-level mages, so the monthly usage rights granted to the chiefs only include mid-level nebula artifacts.

This Star River Magic Artifact must have been specially transferred from within the Pearl Academy for Dean Xiao after he learned that I had advanced to the advanced level.

This also filled the last gap in his cultivation.

The accelerated effect of moonlight training is almost exclusively effective against shadow magic, with minimal impact on other dark magic types.

Therefore, his poison cultivation has been stuck at the first level of the intermediate stage for the past few days, with little improvement.

The necromancer class, which has only recently awakened, is progressing even more slowly.

To this day, He An still doesn't even know what the innate talent of the necromancy class is.

If it weren't for the innate talents of the Shadow and Poison elements occasionally resonating with the Stardust of the Undead,

He An was starting to doubt whether he had any innate talent for the Undead Link.

With the Star River Magic Artifact and the monthly Three-Step Tower usage license, He An was confident that he could reach the advanced level of the three systems before the Academy Competition began.

And it's not just any ordinary high-level three-elemental weapon!

"This is the reward that Fu Yunshu wanted; it has the effect of increasing the speed of black magic training."

At this point, Dean Xiao paused, thought for a moment, and continued:

Professor Qiu Yuhua said that this is an item left behind in our plane by a dark king from ancient times, and it may be the key to unlocking some kind of ruin.

I heard the Fu family has been searching for items related to a certain historical site, so that's probably why they've set their sights on this one.

Fu family?

He An secretly memorized it.

In the original novel, Mo Fan encountered a member of the Black Vatican named Fu Tianming at the Mingzhu Academy's Qing Campus.

This surname is not common, so it is likely that, like Fu Yunshu, they belong to the Fu family.

Searching for relics?

Is it possible that the Fu family has already sided with the Black Vatican?

Was this site also searched on Salam's orders?

He An was walking out of the gates of Mingzhu Academy and heading to his rented apartment.

I plan to go back and test the effects of the Star River Magic Artifact and that mysterious stone.

But just as he turned the corner at the intersection, he was bumped head-on by a woman holding a coffee.

"Oh! I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!"

The woman hurriedly took out tissues from her bag, wanting to help He An wipe the coffee residue off his clothes.

He explained while wiping:

"Lately, I don't know why, I'm always absent-minded."

He An didn't speak, but stared at the metal nameplate on her chest, which bore her name:

Liu Xian.

In the original work, she is the older sister of Liu Ru, the vampire maid of Mo Fan.

The two sisters lived in a small house in an old street in Shanghai, leading an ordinary life.

Until he was targeted and killed by Nie Dong, a vampire lurking in Shanghai.

If it weren't for the forging master Huo Tuo offering a bounty on Mo Fan for the vampire's teeth...

These two beautiful twin sisters will probably die at the hands of Nie Dong, that disgusting vampire.

He An noticed this, which is why he didn't dodge.

Although Liu Xian's death in the original novel is probably scheduled for next year.

However, vampires typically begin targeting their prey months in advance and gradually take action.

Judging from Liu Xian's reaction just now, Nie Dong should have already begun to apply the vampire's special skill "Nightmare" to Liu Xian.

"I'm sorry, it seems like it can't be wiped off. My house is on the old street not far away; there should be some clothes there. Shall I take you to get them?"

Looking at the brown coffee stains on He An's white short-sleeved shirt, Liu Xian said apologetically.

"it is good."

He An nodded, and the thin white lines around his eyes gradually faded.

This is the effect of the Shadow Mind System, which is comparable to hypnosis in certain special works for ordinary people, and even surpasses it in some aspects.

Unfortunately, He An was a virtuous and upright man.

Soon Liu Xian led He An into an old street.

It was a two-story cottage, with some well-maintained plants growing inside.

"Sister." A girl who looked rather pretty came out.

"This is my twin sister, Liu Ru," Liu Xian introduced to He An.

"Hello." He An nodded to her, then fell silent.

"Sis, is this your new boyfriend?"

Liu Ru whispered in Liu Xian's ear.

Two blushes instantly rose on Liu Xian's face.

"No, don't talk nonsense. I accidentally got someone's clothes dirty, and now I'm looking for a spare one for them to wear."

"We have men's clothes at home? Sis, you're not planning to give someone your own to wear, are you?" Liu Ru paused for a moment, then teased.

"What did you say?! You're asking for it! Ha!"

"Don't scratch me, sis! There are strangers here!"

He ignored the sisters' playful fight.

He An stood up and began searching the small house for any traces that the vampires might have left behind.

Soon after, they found a pendant in Liu Xian's room that emitted fluctuations of mind-based and shadow magic.

He An stared at the cute pink and white pendant in his hand, thinking that Nie Dong was using this to gradually influence Liu Xian.

If it weren't for the fact that He An had just acquired the Second Legion Commander, Ming Ying, who was an expert in this field.

Relying solely on He An's innate talent, "Shadow King," and his sensitivity to shadow magic, it would probably take some time to find him.

It utilizes the intertwining and concealment of mental and shadow powers.

Their methods are truly discreet; no wonder they were able to hide for so long in a metropolis like Shanghai, a city teeming with mages.

As time passed, the sun gradually sank in the west, painting the clouds at the edge of the sky a fiery red.

"He An, it's getting late, why don't you stay for a simple meal?" Liu Xian invited, holding a spatula.

"OK."

He An responded with a smile, but his gaze was fixed in another direction.

It seems that a certain prey is about to succumb to the temptation of this juicy piece of meat.
