Full-Time Magister: The Evil Emperor Descends

A brand new crimson color emerges, as if reborn from the ashes, gaining a new life.

"It is indeed a fine knife!"

Mo Xie's eyes lit up instantly. He was thrilled to have obtained a famous sword and couldn't help but praise it.

The Yama sword in his hand seemed to possess a spirit; upon hearing Mo Xie's words, the blade trembled, as if it could understand its master's speech.

The blade gleamed with a blood-red light, as if it had just been forged. Even though it had been used by several users in turn, Enma was flawless at this moment.

From this day forward, I am your true master!

Mo Xie looked at his reflection in the blade and couldn't help but grin, like a child who had received his favorite toy and couldn't put it down.

Professor Shi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the crisis was over and leaned back in his chair.

"It seems that Yama has recognized you, and you have become its true master."

Moye played with Yama, growing increasingly fond of him. She twirled her sword with a flourish before sheathing it.

Now that he has the magical artifact he desires, he has no choice but to give up what he originally wanted to choose. After all, these are priceless treasures of the school, and it would be good enough to get one. He can't possibly get two.

Professor Shi seemed to see through Mo Xie's thoughts and spoke with a smile.

"Hehe, consider this knife a gift from me. You can still choose another magical artifact."

"Really?!"

Mo Xie was stunned for a moment, then looked at Professor Shi with excitement in her eyes.

"Yes, of course. Since Enma has chosen you as its master, you should take it away."

"Besides, if we leave it, others won't be able to use it safely. Let's just consider it a gift from the teacher to the student."

Professor Shi stroked his chin and said with a kind expression.

"Thank you, teacher!"

Mo Xie was overjoyed and gratefully bowed to Professor Shi.

I never expected that coming here would not only get me a special defensive magic item, but also a new weapon that I really wanted. It's a huge win!

"By the way, teacher, I'd like to ask you a question about that feather."

"Oh?"

Professor Shi raised an eyebrow, not expecting Mo Xie to ask such a question, and answered with a smile.

"You've been staring at that feather ever since you came in, you seem quite interested... This feather is the only evidence left in this world by some very, very powerful person."

Could you elaborate?

"With your limited perspective, what is the strongest creature in our 5,000-year-old Chinese nation?"

"Hmm...it should be a totem, right?"

Professor Shi paused for a moment after hearing this answer, then nodded with great satisfaction.

"Looks like you do have some knowledge. Many old guys don't even know what a totem is."

"I've only heard a little about it; I don't know much about totems."

"In the early days, humans were the species at the bottom of the food chain in this world. At that time, humans didn't even have mages."

"The reason we did not become extinct is because we worship totems as gods."

“In primitive tribes, each clan worships a totem creature, and the totem creature provides a safe habitat for the weak humans.”

"At that time, there were many totems, and different tribes relied on different totem beasts for protection."

This part of history is not recorded in the magic history books, and the word "totem" is not even mentioned.

"Why do history books never mention totems?" Mo Xie wondered. Logically speaking, how could such important history be forgotten and not recorded?

Professor Shi grinned, revealing a sarcastic smile.

"Now that humans are powerful and possess magic, who would be willing to admit that they were once dominated by totem beasts like slaves, even though the totem beasts have always treated humans very kindly?"

In primitive societies, humans had no cities and lived in the mountains and wilderness like demons. To avoid becoming food, they could only rely on the wings of powerful mythical beasts.

A totem beast protects a human tribe; totem creatures were also the totem flags of humankind at that time.

In that era, humanity was weak and insignificant!
However, after humans created magic, some of them awakened and became magicians.

Humans, having acquired sufficient power, gradually began to break away from the totem beasts and establish their own territories.

Now, in this era of flourishing magic, humanity has gradually created a variety of magic systems, and as a result, built cities that even demons find difficult to breach.

Humans began to live in cities, establish borders, and expand their territory. They stood in opposition to demons.

Although humans are still at a disadvantage compared to the vast number of demons, they no longer live with the same lack of dignity as before.

In all the school's textbooks, history begins with the period of the awakening of magic, never mentioning the time when humans did not have mages, never mentioning totem beasts, and never mentioning the period when they were reduced to slavery.

"Demons have always been hostile to totem beasts, but totem beasts are born for battle, and their natural enemies are not just demons..."

Professor Shi stopped there and did not continue.

Perhaps the reason people don't mention totem beasts isn't just because that period of history carries a sense of humiliation, but also because of another layer of meaning...

"No one really knows the reason, after all, it's been a very, very long time."

Mo Xie lowered his head in silence, remaining silent for a long time, feeling quite uneasy.

After hearing this, he had already figured out quite a few things.

In fact, in the struggle between humans and demons, the battles have always been against demons on land, and most of the demons we know are of this type.

However, among the demons, those from the ocean make up the largest proportion.

This world is much larger than the original world; the land area has increased, and of course... the ocean area has also expanded.

The ocean has always been the least understood area by humankind, the most unknown and the most mysterious.

People generally know that the monsters on land are powerful, such as the Antarctic Emperor, the Sahara Emperor, the Bermuda Triangle Emperor, and so on... but they don't know that the emperors in the ocean are the most numerous, possibly numbering in the hundreds!
The emperor's power goes without saying, not to mention the world's largest demon empire, how could it not be shocking and terrifying?

At that time, the only thing that could stop the ocean from spreading was the mysterious and powerful totem beast.

The powerful totem beasts should have suppressed the ocean demon empire, so why did it end up being a lose-lose situation?
As for why... the answer is truly lamentable!

Moye sighed and focused her gaze on the feathers.

The description of the feather is very long, but it is all speculation, and the author has repeatedly emphasized that he has not collected enough of the truth.

I read all the way to the bottom and discovered that the person who wrote the entire article was named Jiang Shaojun.

"Jiang Shaojun?"

"A good child who is obsessed with totem beasts, and is still searching for totem relics."

Mo Xie greatly admired this man named Jiang Shaojun and suddenly wanted to meet him.

Without these people who excavate ancient sites, humanity might have completely forgotten the era of totem beasts.

History is never something to be ashamed of. The scars we are most reluctant to uncover are actually the ones that remind us to keep moving forward!

No race in this world is immortal, and the totem beasts born for war are not yet a thing of the past...
