Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang followed the young Inquisitor for about two hours until they reached the border to the actual Ice Wyvern Zone. With the Inquisitor present and with Shang not needing to slow down his speed, the journey didn't take as long as the first time.

When they entered the Ice Wyvern Zone, the Inquisitor stopped and turned to Shang.

"We passed the border now," the Inquisitor said. "This is where we part ways. You are to report back to whoever gave you your job."

Shang nodded. "I will. Thanks for escorting me."

Shang wasn't stupid. Even though he hadn't seen any guards at the border, it didn't mean that there weren't any.

The entire battlefield was probably under a strict lockdown, and without the Inquisitor accompanying him, someone would have probably stopped Shang.

The Inquisitor nodded. "The Lead Inquisitor isn't someone that praises people," the younger Inquisitor said. "However, I want to iterate that your work has helped us a lot. You managed to personally root out eight traitors, with one of them being in a high position, and you indirectly unmasked maybe dozens more."

"You did an excellent job."

"Thanks," Shang said. He had thought that he would feel great when hearing praise from someone so powerful, but for some reason, Shang didn't feel as much.

It was like the praise didn't really matter to him.

"I wish you luck on your future journey," the Inquisitor said before charging into the distance. His speed was far faster than earlier.

Shang only nodded absentmindedly since his mind was occupied right now.

'I wonder why getting praised didn't feel as good as I've imagined. Isn't it normal to feel proud of myself when someone much more powerful than me tells me I did a great job?'

'Why didn't I feel like that?'

For a while, Shang only remained on the same spot, deep in thought.

'I think it's my goal,' Shang thought. 'My goal is far beyond the power of anyone in this place, which is why I don't really care for their praise.'

At that moment, Shang got reminded of his old struggle with his attitude.

Be brutal to others?

Help others so that they help him?

Which one was better for reaching supreme power?

How did the Mage Emperor become so powerful back then?

What was his personality like?
