Sword God in a World of Magic

The group reached the entrance to the city, and Duke Whirlwind quickly struck up a conversation with the guards. It was like nothing was wrong.

Not even the people in the group had noticed that Duke Whirlwind was very worried right now.

The only ones that noticed were Shang and the Dean.

The Dean stepped forward from the back and stopped close to Shang.

After talking with the guards for a bit, Duke Whirlwind brought everyone into the city.

When Shang entered the city, he could see a lot of Adepts and True Mages walking around.

But there were nearly no warriors present.

The only warriors were the guards.

It was almost like this was a city exclusively for Mages.

"Academy for Lightning Mages," the Dean said.

Shang looked at the Dean for a second, and the Dean lightly gestured to the west.

Shang looked over, and he could see a couple of taller towers. At first glance, they didn't seem any different than normal towers, but if one looked closely, one could see the occasional spark of lightning travel over their surfaces.

"Don't get too caught up in the city," Duke Whirlwind said with a smile to the group. "We'll directly continue."

The group only nodded, and everyone continued walking.

Keeping the Blessing of Wind active would be too noticeable, which was why Duke Whirlwind deactivated it.

However, the group was still traveling with quite some speed.

They traveled for a couple of seconds before Duke Whirlwind interrupted their journey.

"Oh, I must apologize," Duke Whirlwind said. "I just remembered that I wanted to buy something in the bazaar. I hope you won't mind a short detour."

The group didn't object, and Duke Whirlwind led everyone to the east.

By now, Shang had noticed something.
