Sword God in a World of Magic

For a while, everyone only looked at the masked Shang.

After his display, his figure appeared even more imposing in everyone's eyes.

This guy had killed a Mid General Stage beast with a single attack!

Which warrior would be able to survive such an attack?!

The officer looked at Shang with furrowed brows while the expressions of One and Two were hidden behind their mask.

And then, One laughed loudly. "Seems like I made a bargain!" he said.

Two looked at One, but no one could see his expression.

Shang only remained in his current position. "As long as the payment is right, I don't care," he said in his deep voice.

"Our deal stands," One said with a voice that suggested a smirk. "Let's get back to the hill."

One started walking towards the hill, and Shang followed him wordlessly.

Two hesitated for a couple more seconds but decided to follow them.

As the three of them walked back to the hill, several angry and hate-filled eyes watched them.

These three obviously had had the power to save their comrade, but they had simply watched him die!

"Stop slacking off!" the officer shouted from the hill towards the Rookies. "You misjudged your opponent's power, and you paid the price! Don't expect others to get you out of a mess you got yourself into!"

"Now, get back to work!"

The Rookies quickly saluted in respect, but they definitely didn't feel respectful inside.

They had gone to the Warrior's Academy with their dead comrade!

They had known him for years!

But instead of giving them some time to deal with the problem, the officer immediately forced them to continue working again.
