"This is the Dark Abyss. You opened the gate to the Dark Dimension, and that's why you've come to see me," the shadowy figure replied calmly.

Dark Dimension?

The king?

"Hey bro, you're not the Dark King, are you?"

Cao Le paused, then said, "Or rather, are you an avatar of the Dark King?"

"No."

When the shadowy figure heard the words "Dark King," he clearly became somewhat agitated, but the agitation was short-lived.

"Well, how do I leave here?" Cao Le then asked.

"Don't you want my help?" the shadowy figure suddenly said.

“…”

Cao Le felt an urge to curse!

Is this because you don't want the other person's help?

You rejected me right from the start with "You're not good enough!"

The shadowy figure seemed to have seen through Cao Le's thoughts and said, "You are indeed not worthy of my help right now, but that doesn't mean you can't get help from my subjects."

As the shadowy figure spoke, the black mist around it suddenly spread out, and the next moment... a shadowy figure about two meters long appeared.

After this dark figure appeared, the dark figure that summoned it seemed somewhat illusory.

"From now on, it will be your servant, Shadow Servant." As the shadow spoke, it also materialized into a physical form.

It looked a lot like a human, but its skin was completely black. And it had a blank expression and empty eyes, like... a fool?

"Even if you don't want to help me, you don't have to fob me off, do you?" Cao Le couldn't tell that this thing looked like it had any fighting power.

"By your plane's standards, it's currently at the advanced stage of a Shadow Servant. As long as you can provide it with sufficient energy, it can advance further," the shadowy figure explained.

"Holy crap???"

Looking at the bewildered black man, Cao Le paused before asking, "Is it very strong?"

"To deal with you, all it takes is one..."

"Okay, okay... stop talking, I understand. But why are you helping me?" Cao Le interrupted him directly.

"We'll meet again when you become strong. Of course, that's on the condition that you grow stronger, otherwise you won't have a chance to get the answer." The shadowy figure seemed to grow increasingly ethereal, and then with a casual wave of his hand, Cao Le vanished before he could even speak...

"Human boy, I look forward to seeing you again..." The dark figure muttered softly as he watched Cao Le disappear before vanishing from the scene as well.

.....

When Cao Le opened his eyes, he looked around.

It's still my own room!

Same date, same evening...

"Whoo~"

I breathed a slight sigh of relief; at least nothing strange had happened.

Then Cao Le entered his own mental world...

Something inexplicable just happened suddenly?

For some reason, my Stardust has expanded quite a bit?

Moreover, the seven stars rotated in an extremely orderly and well-behaved manner.

It seems that it won't be long before he can unleash the first level of the Shadow skill, "Shadow Escape - Shuttle"!

However, after recalling what had just happened, Cao Le reconnected to the star track. He was quite interested in the so-called "shadow servant."

"Dark Summoning!"

After the seven stars were linked, the Dark Summoning Gate opened, and the Shadow Servant emerged from it.

"What abilities do you have?" Cao Le asked, looking at the guy in front of him.

The shadow servant did not respond, as if he did not understand?

Or rather, it cannot express...

After thinking it over, Cao Le left home with his shadow servant. Of course, he left extremely carefully, as this was the first time he had ever gone out so late since arriving in this world.

Upon arriving at an abandoned factory in the south of the city, Cao Le instructed, "Show me your strength."

The Shadow Servant understood, and a black longsword suddenly appeared in his hand before he darted into the factory.

"Bang bang bang..."

"Bang bang bang..."

Although this factory is rather dilapidated, it is still quite a large factory!

"Rumble..."

Just ten seconds after the Shadow Servant rushed in, the place began to collapse!

Of course, just as Cao Le was wondering if something was buried inside, a shadow floated out from the ground. That's right, it was the Shadow Servant.

Looking at the collapsed factory in front of him, Cao Le led his shadow servants inside.

The factory was surrounded by corrosion, clearly indicating that this thing was a genuine dark creature!

Moreover, its destructive power is no less than that of any servant-level demon, or even a warrior-level demon... Of course, it may still be somewhat different from a warrior-level demon, since he has never seen one before.

The knowledge he's learned from the magic book so far is almost entirely limited to lesser demons at the servant level. As for stronger beings, he hasn't learned about them yet. He has no idea what kind of destructive power warrior-level demons possess.

However, one thing is certain: this guy isn't just a freeloader. Although he can't speak like the shadow from before, he can understand Cao Le's orders, which is already quite good for Cao Le.

Having ascertained the opponent's approximate strength, Cao Le retrieved it and then headed home...

7. The holiday is coming.

The next morning, Cao Le arrived at school carrying the joy from the previous night.

Although he didn't know what the dark figure was, one thing was certain: it was definitely an ally.

Moreover, in addition to dark skills, he also possesses dark summoning, which is simply amazing!

When Cao Le arrived at the classroom, he saw that almost all the students were there. Class started at eight o'clock sharp. The first period was a class on demons, and the teacher in charge of teaching the demon class was Zhang Jianguo, the homeroom teacher of the class next door.

Just as Zhang Jianguo arrived, Cao Le suddenly realized that Mo Gouzi had not yet arrived.

After a few minutes, Mo Fan finally walked in.

"Mo Fan, why are you late again? Can't you be more serious? You're not as talented as most of your classmates, and your foundation is really bad. You're not even studying seriously. Look at Zhao Ting in our class. He's talented in lightning magic, intelligent, has a good foundation, and has a good attitude towards learning magic. He can already control four lightning-type stars. And you? I heard you still can't control your fire-type stars. Your fire awakening is going to be wasted!" As soon as Zhang Jianguo saw Mo Fan arrive late, he immediately started scolding him without any politeness.

He seemed to be filled with displeasure that he had awakened the fire element and was not worthy of cherishing it.

Zhang Jianguo would reprimand him whenever he had the chance...

Mo Fan rolled his eyes, looking completely unconcerned.

After he sat down, Cao Le said, "Mo Gouzi, I've discovered that you're born to be disliked."

"Get out of here..." Mo Fan, who was about to meditate, turned around and whispered when he heard this.

After cursing, Mo Fan said smugly, "Cao thief, how many stars do you control now?"

Although Cao Le displayed three stars, Mo Fan still felt something was off. Of course, he also wanted to tell Cao Le that he had already controlled six stars!

"I was only able to release it with difficulty." There was nothing to hide from Mo Fan.

After all, this bastard clearly wanted to undermine me.

Sure enough, Mo Fan was completely dumbfounded when he heard that Cao Le could be released!

With control of six stars, it suddenly loses its appeal...

Of course, he didn't think Cao Le was bragging to him; after all, there was nothing to brag about in this kind of thing.

"Don't be like that. You're just an ordinary nobody. It's normal to be inferior to me," Cao Le said with a smile.

"whispering sound!"

Mo Fan pursed his lips...

Cao Le then added, "Oh, by the way, I think you shouldn't just focus on your hidden lightning element; you should also pay attention to your fire element. If you can't pass the magic casting assessment at the end of next semester, the school advisor might find all sorts of reasons to expel you."

Before Mo Fan could say anything more, Zhang Jianguo had already begun today's lesson: "Alright, everyone, open the Book of Demons. Today I will continue to talk about some of the more common demons."

As we all know, demons roam outside the cities where we humans live, and they are extremely aggressive towards humans. They wander around, fighting and killing each other...

So what should a mage do if they encounter a one-eyed dire wolf while venturing into the wild...?

Seeing that Zhang Jianguo had already begun to describe the course with great enthusiasm, Cao Le continued his meditation.

As for Zhang Jianguo's story about the one-eyed demon wolf, Cao Le wasn't interested in listening. After all, he already knew about those things.

If you encounter a one-eyed wolf, you either need to be stronger than it or faster than it; there is no other way.

After Cao Le began his meditation practice, Mo Fan also began his own.

Although it's not a world of cultivation, hard work is never a bad thing...

A semester ended quickly...

By the time the holiday arrived, Cao Le's Shadow Stardust was almost at level two.

Xingzi's control speed has also improved significantly.

After leaving the school gate, Cao Le looked at Mo Fan and said, "Dog, it's vacation time, where are you planning to go?"

"Of course I'm going back..." Mo Fan was about to say home, but then he suddenly remembered that his father had sold the house because of his coming to the magic school, so he was basically homeless.

"I'm going to my aunt's house. I want to see Xinxia," Mo Fan said after a pause.

"That's perfect, let's go together," Cao Le said.

He was thinking to himself that it was time to teach those thugs a lesson they wouldn't forget!

To be honest, having seen Xin Xia, I still have a bit of a protective instinct towards girls. That's why, when we were kids, those local thugs beat up Mo Fan and Cao Le quite a bit...
