“Another mutated cell.”
Chu He sat on the bed in the bedroom as his expression turned strange.
It had been seventeen years since he had transmigrated to this magical world.
3
In this world, everyone would undergo a magic awakening when they were 16 years old. Anyone with magic talent would enter the Magic Academy and become an apprentice.
1
Chu He had been tested to have magical talent a year ago.
Chu He was now an apprentice at the Andrich Magic Academy, but his magic talent was very poor. He had not managed to cultivate his magic power even after a year.
1
Usually, in the academy, one could only do odd jobs and sweep the floor.
1
Although he had not cultivated any magic power, Chu He had learned a lot of theoretical knowledge.
For example, the ranks of mages were: Apprentice Mages, Elementary Mages, Intermediate Mages, Advanced Mages, Great Mages, Magisters, Great Magisters, and Holy Magisters.

The magic attributes were further divided into wind, water, fire, earth, wood, ice, lightning, darkness, light, and non-elemental magic.
Each type of magic was further divided into six levels according to the strength of the user’s magic power. This was “Elementary Magic, Intermediate Magic, Advanced Magic, Ultimate Magic, Forbidden Spell, and Great Forbidden Spell”.
But a month ago, his cells suddenly started to mutate.
Every few hours, a mechanical voice would ring in his ears.
3
Eighty cells had already mutated since the beginning.
Chu He did not know what had happened. Perhaps it was a special ability that he had awakened after transmigrating.
However, after such a long time, Chu He did not sense anything abnormal.
It was just that his appetite was getting better and better. He could eat three to four times that of an ordinary person.
Other than that, there was nothing unusual.
But recently, something strange happened in the academy.
In just a month, several people had mysteriously disappeared.
2
Among them, there was even a student who had already become an Elementary Mage who also disappeared without a trace.
He could basically confirm that it was the act of a demonic creature.
After all, this was the Andrich Magic Academy!
The academy immediately organized a patrol team, and all of them were made up of senior students. They formed groups of five and patrolled the school every two hours. If they found any abnormalities, they would immediately report it.
Even so, last night, a student mysteriously disappeared from the dormitory building next door.
Chu He sat on the sofa and fell into deep thought. He decided to be careful in the future.
At this moment, a cold wind suddenly came from the dormitory, making Chu He’s body tremble.
Chu He’s expression changed slightly as he looked at the window.
The windows were closed, as was the door…
So where did this bone-chilling cold wind come from?
Tick… tick…
1
There was suddenly the sound of water dripping in the bathroom.
The lights in the living room started to flicker.
The curtains were not drawn, and it looked dark outside with nothing visible in sight.
From the bathroom door, a figure exuding a black aura walked out slowly.
Chu He stood up and slowly retreated.
The shadow in front of him should be some kind of mysterious power.
Or could it be called a demonic creature?
It should be the culprit behind so many missing cases in the school.
Chu He did not hesitate and fled outside.
However, before he could open the door, it emitted a black fog that blinded him.
The black fog spread out and instantly entered his body.
Oh no!
Chu He knew the situation was bad.
Who knew what would happen after absorbing this strange gas!
He might become one of the recent victims that had gone missing.
Just as Chu He thought he was doomed, an emotionless mechanical voice sounded in his ear.

[Devouring Black Magic Power. +10 Mutated Cells]
After two notifications.
[The number of mutated cells has reached 100, and the mutated cells have fused into fire cells]
[Obtained Fire Magic Power]
Chu He could clearly sense a strange change happening to his body.
A warm energy flowed in his body as though his innate ability had quietly awakened in Chu He’s body.
Chu He extended his right hand as a flame suddenly appeared in his palm.
1
The flame burned brighter and brighter, gradually turning into a fireball.
Boom!
The fireball was crushed by Chu He as the violent power of the flame instantly enveloped Chu He’s body.
However, neither his clothes nor his skin were burnt. Instead, he felt very warm and comfortable.
“A first-year Apprentice Mage is actually so strong.”
The black fog dissipated a little as Chu He saw the pale-faced man carrying a sick smile.
“Very good. After devouring you, my magic power became even stronger.”
The sickly man let out a strange laugh.
His withered palm extended towards Chu He, and his sharp nails were about to stab into Chu He’s throat.
Chu He gently took a step back and snapped his fingers in midair with his right hand.
The flames on his body immediately surged forward and turned into a sea of fire, engulfing this sickly man.
5
“A demonic creature actually dares to be so arrogant in the academy,” Chu He said lightly.
4
The sickly man’s body instantly turned into dust and dissipated.
