Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang looked at the brightly smiling face of Viera, the Dean's second disciple.

Shang had just thought about her, and now she appeared.

"Congratulations, Little Brother!" Viera said with a bright voice, her long red hair covering half her face.

"Little brother?" Shang asked.

Viera nodded excitedly. "As teacher's third disciple, you are now officially my younger brother!" she said.

Then, she walked over and pulled Shang into a bear hug.

Viera was a bit smaller than Shang, but the sheer power of her body made Shang helpless.

When Shang got lifted from his feet without a way to resist, he felt awkward.

He had only talked to this woman once before, and she was hugging him like he was her best friend.

Or little brother?

"Nice to meet you," Shang said awkwardly.

Viera put him down and inspected his entire body.

Then, she nodded.

"You have a very dangerous aura! Many girls like that," she said with pride.

"Dangerous aura?" Shang asked in confusion.

Viera nodded several times. "Yep, very dangerous. As soon as I saw you, I felt like you were an aggressive beast, which is surprising. I mean, you're only at the Initial General Stage."

"Aggressive beast?" Shang asked as he looked at his body.

'I didn't feel angry or aggressive. Also, I only just stood there with nothing on my mind. Why would Viera think that I'm an aggressive beast?' Shang thought.

Then, Viera excitedly walked over to the reception desk and sat on it.

BANG!

And the reception desk broke apart.

Shang only awkwardly looked at Viera, his expression invisible due to his mask.

Viera became red in the face and quickly stood up.

"Stupid cheap wood!" she shouted as she kicked one of the pieces away.

BANG!

The piece of wood exploded on the wall, the splinters shooting all across the room.
