Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang continued walking for quite a while, but he could only see the two walls.

At least, by now, he knew that this building was circular and that it was made by human hands. The walls were too smooth and too uniform. Something like that wasn't something that beasts would create.

'If this were some kind of fantasy novel, I would believe that this is some ancient ruin that will teach me about the secrets of warriors,' Shang thought.

Then, he sighed. 'Sadly, the God literally said that there are no more inheritances of warriors remaining in the world since the Mages destroyed all of them.'

'However, this building still has to fulfill some kind of function, right?'

After walking for about twenty more minutes, Shang's Darkness Vision picked something up.

The inner wall had a human-sized opening.

Shang walked for a bit more and eventually arrived in front of it.

It was an open door.

'Yep, definitely made by humans,' Shang thought as he looked into the room.

The room was huge but mostly empty.

Shang guessed that the room was just as big as the entire thing, except for the space between the inner and outer walls.

And there was only a single thing in the middle of the room.

It was a portal.

It was round, and a membrane of silver colors danced between its arches.

'Well, I've never seen a portal in real life, but that's what I would imagine one to look like.'

Shang looked around the room and saw nothing else.

No second door.

No stairway.

Nothing.

It was just a big room with a portal.

Shang walked closer to the portal and looked at it.
