Full-Time Magister: Dark Lord

The Sky Eagle Mage Corps' objective was very simple: to hunt down general-level demons roaming the city.

Once the warrior-level demons are dealt with, the remaining servant-level demons will be unable to withstand the collective magical bombardment from the mages of Bo City.

There are quite a few mages in Bo City, but most of them are novice mages. The reason they are fleeing in such a sorry state is simply because of the number of demons.

But now that the entrances to the demons are being destroyed one by one, the number of demons in Bo City is decreasing as each one is killed. With the help of these Sky Eagle Mages, the entire area has naturally entered the sweeping phase.

Cao Le naturally joined in as well.

As for Mo Fan, Gouzi was definitely the one who was lucky enough to survive.

Moreover, he did indeed drink the Earthly Holy Spring; this scoundrel has been busy breaking through to the intermediate level of magic these past few days.

The Earthly Holy Spring had almost no effect on Cao Le; after all, he tried a sip and found that it had no effect whatsoever.

So keeping this hot potato for myself is pointless; it's better to use it to nurture Mo Fan's little mudfish. Besides, this matter can't be kept secret anyway; let Mo Fan deal with the Black Vatican and such.

Just develop quietly on your own!

After a night of rest, even without his meditation, the space-elemental stardust and the shadow-elemental nebula were restored to their original state.

In terms of recovery speed, he's definitely got a cheat code.

Moreover, the Blue Tube recovers quickly, which is a huge advantage in this world!

Compared to yesterday's exhausting chase, today was spent chasing and hacking away at the giant-eyed blood rat and the one-eyed demon wolf.

With the space and shadows combined, along with the arbitrary shapes of the vessels in his hands, Cao Le swept through the area for seven days, killing nearly a dozen one-eyed demon wolves and more than twenty giant-eyed blood rats!

This number is obviously quite remarkable for someone who has just reached the intermediate level and cannot yet cast spells.

Xiao Hei is more natural-born!

Although it takes a day to rest after each day of fighting, it still managed to kill nearly fifty demons.

Moreover, for some reason, Cao Le felt that Xiao Hei seemed to be about to advance in rank?

But he really didn't know how this thing advanced... He thought to himself that he would ask the shadowy figure next time he saw it.

Although that thing said it was unworthy to be his master, judging from the current situation, he would be conquered by him sooner or later.

After all, he was a dark creature that appeared only after being linked to himself!

Through these days of fighting, Cao Le discovered that one of his Shadow Stars had undergone some changes.

Recalling the remnants of souls absorbed by the Shadow Stardust before, Cao Le believed they were likely some kind of vessel for absorbing remnants. The difference was that they might only be used to enhance Shadow Star particles.

Furthermore, only demons killed by one's own shadow magic or the vessel in their hand will be absorbed. If they are killed by spatial magic, there will be no reaction.

In any case, it's a good thing for him!

At least the enhanced Star means that it can have more skills, and similarly, the power of those skills can be increased.

After repeated hunts, Bo City finally returned to peace.

Unfortunately, Bocheng is now completely unrecognizable...

Destroyed buildings everywhere, collapsed bridges everywhere, devastation everywhere...

A heavy rain has left a psychological scar on too many people.

The entire city was shrouded in a gray-white hue. Too many people had lost their loved ones, and too many had perished. Even if the city still stood, it was no different from being dead...

...

"Cao Le, are you alright?"

As soon as the signal was restored, Cao Le received a call from Tang Yue.

Clearly, she already knew about Bocheng's situation.

"It's alright, Cao Ying doesn't know about Bocheng, does she?" Cao Le asked.

"have no idea..."

Tang Yue naturally couldn't let Cao Ying know about this, after all, she was still so young. Then, Tang Yue asked, "Are all the classmates alright?"

"A few were killed... but most of the seniors survived."

"So what are your plans next?" Tang Yue then asked.

Now that Bo City is destroyed, it will take some time to rebuild and restore it to its former glory.

"I'm going to Shanghai, where there are places to stay for people from Bocheng. I'll rest for a year and then apply to Mingzhu University."

Actually, Cao Le initially planned to go to Xiamen University.

After all, there's a place there specifically suitable for shadow-based training?

But where to go? They were completely clueless, unfamiliar with the place and the people, so going to Xiamen was clearly not a wise choice.

Most importantly, he also had a younger sister to take care of, so he ultimately chose to go to Shanghai.

Similarly, Mo Fan and his family of three also needed to go to Shanghai, so the four of them took a car to Xiamen Island and then took another car to Shanghai.

Mo Fan naturally disliked Cao Le; after all, this guy was getting more and more arrogant! He actually sat next to Xin Xia right in front of them, father and son...

What Mo Fan couldn't understand was what kind of spell this guy had cast on Xin Xia? How could Xin Xia not reject him at all?!

...

35. Cao Le: Xin Xia wants you to come and live with me?

Cao Le completely ignored Mo Fan's dissatisfaction.

If I risk my life to be with her, how can she not be close to me?

"Speaking of which, what if demons ran out on the high-speed train line?" Perhaps Mo Fan was too bored, and the dog food was too much to handle, so he couldn't help but ask this question.

“The high-speed rail lines are all within the security zone, protected by a perimeter barrier,” Xinxia explained softly.

"What did you learn in your nine years of compulsory education? Did you just spend all your time reading novels?" Cao Le said with a hint of disdain.

Upon hearing this, Mo Fan felt a surge of displeasure... He pouted and said, "This is my first time traveling so far."

"It feels like Brother Mo Fan is from another time; he doesn't know a lot of common sense," Xin Xia said with a secret smile.

Although Xin Xia was joking, Cao Le was slightly taken aback.

"Yes, I come from a scientific world. Schools there don't teach this kind of boring magic. Instead, they teach very interesting scientific theories. They explain all phenomena with science. Unlike here, where magic is just superstition!" Mo Fan said righteously.

Xinxia was momentarily at a loss for words. As for the time travel theory, she naturally didn't believe it.

Cao Le then said, "You think you're the one who time-traveled? Go and time-travel again and let me see. According to you, I'm the one who time-traveled."

“What nonsense are you spouting? You unambitious students are always fantasizing about non-magical science. Without the great people’s exploration of magic, where would you get your current home appliances, computers, and transportation? Not to mention riding in a high-speed train, a giant locomotive powered by lightning magic. You have no respect for history or your ancestors!” said an old man with black hair and a black beard sitting next to Mo Fan.

Mo Fan was at a loss for words.

Cao Le actually admired the people of this world quite a bit. Although they hadn't created any firearms or nuclear bombs, they had still managed to build cars and airplanes with great skill.

"Sir, my son just likes to say strange things, don't take it to heart. Are you also going to Shanghai?" Mo Jiaxing was very popular and immediately struck up a conversation with the old man.

...

Cao Le wasn't particularly interested in their conversation.

Anyway, we'll meet this guy sooner or later.

There's no need to curry favor with him now, otherwise it'll make it seem like I'm trying to get in through his connections.

Just based on the fact that he awakened the spatial magic, a truly rare magic in the country, at the intermediate level, he would be a hot commodity wherever he went!

Of course, the resettlement of the entire population in Bo City is already a huge project. Most of the candidates are assigned to other universities, where the government funds them to study for another year before taking the Magic College Entrance Examination the following year.

Therefore, he could take a year off and apply for compensation.

Although it may not be much, something is better than nothing!

"Hey, Cao Le, which university are you planning to apply to?" Mo Fan had just said that he wanted to enter Mingzhu Academy through the special admission program, but was scolded by the old man. Then he looked at Cao Le and asked.

"I haven't decided yet. I'll think about it next year," Cao Le said with a shrug.

With his mid-level Dark Shadow skill, and without needing any special admission process, once he controls forty-nine Stars, he can simply fill out the application form and enroll.

A student who knows intermediate-level magic would have no problem entering the Pearl Green Campus. In fact, given his strength, he could easily go to the main campus as well!

Following the addresses provided by Bocheng, the four of them found their respective residences, and coincidentally, they became neighbors again.

However, this truly lives up to its reputation as the suburbs of Shanghai, a very, very suburban area. According to residents who have already moved in, it only takes a 20-minute bus ride to the subway station to reach downtown Shanghai, and then another hour and a half by subway to see the greater Shanghai cityscape...

Although this place is a bit remote, and a bit... well, at least it's a place to call home, isn't it?

"Hey? Cao Le, where's your sister?" Mo Fan suddenly asked when they arrived at their residence.

“My sister and Teacher Tang Yue are in Hangzhou. I asked Teacher Tang Yue to do something for me, but my sister said she wanted to stay in Hangzhou for a few days, so she left it to Teacher Tang Yue,” Cao Le replied.

"Ying-mei is still so young, it's fortunate that she didn't experience this catastrophe," Xin-xia said with relief.

Xin Xia naturally knew about this; otherwise, why would she have waited for Mo Fan to ask her?

"Uncle Mo, if your house isn't big enough, Xin Xia can come stay with me," Cao Le suddenly said as they entered their respective homes.

Upon hearing this, Xinxia's face instantly turned red, and she glared at Cao Le with a shy and reproachful look.

As for Mo Fan's father, he simply ignored Cao Le's shameless suggestion...

Neither father nor daughter spoke, and Mo Jiaxing pushed Xinxia towards the house.

Mo Fan, without hesitation, cursed, "You scoundrel Cao, you really dare to think that way!"

"Get out of my way, it's none of your business, she's my wife!" Cao Le naturally wouldn't give in to him.

"Don't come to my house unless it's important. You're not welcome." Mo Fan walked straight in and closed the door before Cao Le could say anything.

That bastard!

He actually wants to date his girl? That won't do!

Cao Le shrugged, not thinking much of it. Of course, it would be even better if she could live with him.

After arriving at his new home, Cao Le rested briefly before making a phone call to Tang Yue.

Even though she's the wife I've already chosen, I can't just leave my sister there and ignore her forever.
