Sword God in a World of Magic

Stars didn't know how to react. His strongest member had left just like that.

Why?

So what if that guy was strong? They were five! Why did he leave?!

On top of that, this guy was their age! How powerful could his body possibly be? Even if he somehow managed to get a body in the Middle Soldier Stage, the older student had several years of battle experience on him.

"And what will you do now?" Shang asked.

Stars turned to Shang when he spoke, but he noticed that Shang wasn't talking to him but to the other three students.

"Someone more powerful and more experienced than you realized that it's not a good idea to attack me. Will you mindlessly follow your leader's orders, or will you make the sensible decision and leave?"

"Don't listen to his empty words!" Stars shouted with a furious expression. His polite and civil demeanor had completely vanished as he realized that Shang was threatening the group of people he had built up with so much work.

"Jarem was a coward! We were five people, and he's several years older than him! So what if this guy is strong?! We are four! He is one! How strong can he be?! He's just as old as us!" Stars shouted.

The other three students were no longer calm. They had no idea what they should do now. They didn't have the experience or instincts to feel another human's power! They were simply new students from middle-ranked families! They didn't know how powerful their opponent was!

Two conflicting streams of logic collided in their minds.

Their squad leader had given up without a fight, which meant that this guy had to be really powerful.

However, he was also only 14 and 15. So, how powerful could he possibly be?

These were the two thoughts that collided with each other.

Which one was right?

They had no idea!

Meanwhile, several other students had stopped at the side. They had noticed that something interesting was going on, and they came to watch.

The more experienced one of the students felt Shang's power and became shocked. Someone that young had such a powerful body?! How was that even possible?! Did he come from some high-ranking noble family!?

But when they overcame their shock, they only grinned.

Oh, this was going to be good.

Stars noticed all the students stop around them to watch. As Stars saw all the eyes watching, his anxiety shot through the roof.
