Sword God in a World of Magic

Chapter 281

The group bowed once again to King Skythunder before leaving the throne room.

The warriors looked with excitement and relief at each other.

If King Skythunder had said that he didn't like the Procedure, he would have probably killed everyone that had undergone it or known how to perform it.

Luckily, King Skythunder didn't see any issues with it.

But then, the warriors remembered something else and looked at each other with complex expressions.

Yes, King Skythunder had agreed to the Procedure, but he had also killed one of theirs.

From the five warriors, only four were left.

Did that warrior deserve to die?

Of course not!

But that didn't matter.

He was dead now, and there was nothing they could have done.

The group walked in silence until they left the castle. After that, they continued walking for a while longer before Duke Whirlwind stopped.

Duke Whirlwind turned to them with a smile. "The most dangerous part is over. We have the King's support, which means that no one can openly go against us with the Procedure as the reason."

"Your Dean and I can protect you from any random Adept and True Mage, but without the King's support, our opponents would have been the six High Mages you have just seen in the palace."

The group thought back to the Council and the Archduke.

These people represented the absolute rulers of the entire Skythunder Kingdom.

In comparison to them, Duke Whirlwind was only responsible for about 8% of the Skythunder Kingdom, and he was still subservient to the Council.

This wouldn't have been an opponent they could have overcome.

"You all did very well today," Duke Whirlwind said with a kind smile.

The warriors only looked at each other in guilt.

What had they done?

They had only stood there.

"If any of you have the luck to meet King Skythunder again in the future, remember what you have learned today," Duke Whirlwind said.

"Respect his power, but don't act like a weakling with no mental strength."

"We have managed to survive, but one of us was sadly left behind," Duke Whirlwind said with a sigh. "The reason for his death was his lack of willpower."
