World Magic: I Awakened Light and Dark Magic Attributes

Chapter 11: Purple Electric Mouse

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

This extremely solid and special locomotive, coupled with the terrifying speed of the train, made it feel like a huge meat grinder. Any demon beast that dared to block the way would be mercilessly crushed into minced meat.

Even some lord tier demon beasts dared not to test their luck against the train.

Unfortunately, this train could not be widely promoted because the cost of it was very high. Other than the four great academies, which were wealthy organizations, there were basically no other organizations in the entire country that could afford it.

Moreover, not only was the cost of making it high but the cost of cleaning and maintaining it was also frighteningly high.

Other than these, there were also various magical arrays engraved on the locomotive and the body of the train. It also could be said that the entire body of the train was made of money and magic.

Of course, the usage of this kind of train amounted to a very high cost. Because it needed to maintain the magical arrays on the locomotive and the body of the train, the kinetic energy of the train was all provided by magic cores.

In the current market, the cheapest magic core of elemental beasts costs 30,000 dollars each.

The fare of this kind of train was different. According to the mileage, the number of magic cores consumed was also different. But even so, the cheapest high-speed train ticket still costs 3000 dollars each way.

If it was a passenger like Hughes who had a mileage of more than 100 kilometers, even after using the student discount of the Lach Academy, he still had to spend 7000 dollars.

But even so, many people wanted to buy one. 

The structure of the locomotive was very simple. Hughes could understand it at a glance. The most important thing was the magic circle on the locomotive to maintain the start of the train and the defensive mechanisms.

But the magic circle was too mysterious. Hughes could not understand it for a while.

Therefore, he stopped paying attention to it after looking at it for a while. Then, he focused on queuing up.

Although there were many people queuing up, the speed of the inspection was very fast. In less than a few minutes, it was Hughes’ turn.

The inspection procedure was a mechanical inspection. It was very simple, as long as you put your mage card on it, it would be fine.

“Beep! Identity verification was successful. Welcome respected mage!”

The sound of the machine rang out, and the people around were slightly stunned. They all turned to look at Hughes.

Seeing that Hughes was so young, the people did not pay much attention to him. From what they knew, he was young and without a magic staff, so he should be a mage who had just awakened.

Ignoring the gazes of others, Hughes calmly dragged his suitcase and walked onto the train.

The train was no different from the high-speed train in his previous life. Hughes quickly found his seat, put his suitcase away, and returned to his seat.

“Squeak squeak!”

Just as Hughes sat down, the sound of an animal attracted his attention.

Hughes turned to look in the direction of the sound. It was a tall girl with long purple hair.

She held a magic staff that was about the height of a person in her right hand. On her left shoulder stood a purple hamster that was about the size of a palm.

It had smooth purple fur that was slightly shiny. In addition to its round and chubby appearance, its small eyes made it look very cute.

“A demon beast?”

“No, it is contracted beast.”

Hughes took another look at the hamster on the girl’s shoulder. The thought in his heart became more certain.

A mage could contract some demon beasts to assist in battle.

Of course, a creature like a purple hamster would not be his first choice, but that seemed normal for female mages. 

Basically, most female mages would contract some non-aggressive and cute demon beasts as pets after they had contracted a battle-type demon beast.

After all, the level of these non-aggressive and cute demon beasts was not very high, and the amount of mana they spent was almost negligible.

“I wonder what kind of demon beast the Lach Academy will give me when I arrive?”

Hughes thought with some anticipation as he retracted his gaze.

As one of the battle techniques of mages, contract beasts were an indispensable part of it.

Because the body of a mage was not much stronger than that of most ordinary people, contract beasts were needed to make up for this shortcoming.

A powerful contracted beast would protect its master from being hurt or disturbed during the battle. Sometimes, a contract beast could even take charge to deal with the enemy and reduce the pressure on the mage.

As the top academy in the entire country, the contracted beasts given by the Lach Academy would definitely not be too bad, not to mention that they would be tamed by Hughes himself.

“It would be best if they are like the blood dragon steel striped wolf and the purple thunder xikun lion, which have their own elements and have a high growth rate.”

The blood dragon steel striped wolf and the purple thunder xikun lion were among the stronger demon beasts of the same level. They were very suitable for Hughes’s needs for demon beasts.

As a light elemental mage, he was not very afraid of getting hurt. Moreover, he did not need to use Lorelei’s secret tome, but the process of casting spells by heart was too slow.

Therefore, a strong offensive demon beast was what Hughes desperately wanted.

“Hello, can you let me have a seat? My seat is beside yours.”

A clear and melodious voice interrupted Hughes’s fantasy.

He turned his head and saw that it was the girl who had just gotten into the car. She was holding a staff and had a hamster on her shoulder.

“What a coincidence!”

Seeing that it was this girl, Hughes was slightly surprised. He immediately reacted and stood up to let her walk in.

During this time, the purple hamster on her shoulder kept squeaking.

“Sorry, my purple electric mouse is a little shy.”

The girl showed an apologetic expression and explained.

“It’s okay.”

Hughes smiled slightly. The purple electric mouse’s voice was not loud, so it did not affect him much. Moreover, he put on his headphones and prepared to meditate again after the car set off.

“Are you a mage too?”

Sensing that Hughes would not mind, she asked him curiously.

She could feel a very thick magical aura radiating from Hughes’s body.

“Yes, I just awakened a few days ago,” Hughes replied with a smirk.

“You just awakened a while ago!?”

The girl was a little surprised and a little shocked.

She could feel that the magical aura on Hughes’s body was not at the level of a low-level mage, but at the level of a high-level mage.

And it was only a few days after the day of the Magic Awakening. This meant that this somewhat handsome boy in front of her had broken through two major realms in just a few days!

Compared to him, her face instantly turned red.

Because when she was at home, she was still smug about advancing to an intermediate mage in just a few days.

But now that she saw Hughes, she blushed with shame when she thought back to the praise she got from her friends at home.
