Sword God in a World of Magic

Chapter 306

The Mage looked at Shang with narrowed eyes, but Shang only calmly looked back.

Shang had already thought of a persona he would adapt in this foreign kingdom.

Just now, the best way to disguise himself had been acting as a wild barbarian that didn't belong to any power, village, or city. That would give him an excuse not to know much about the Grandmountain Kingdom and for being alone in the wilderness.

But that also meant that Shang had to act the part.

Because of that, Shang decided to adopt a stupider version of teacher Mervin.

Mervin was the righteous teacher of swordsmanship in the warrior's academy. He didn't speak much, but when he did, his words were wise.

Shang essentially channeled a younger and more isolated version of him.

Taciturn, introverted, honest.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" the Mage asked with narrowed eyes.

"My name is unimportant," Shang said slowly. "Names are only important when there are others to speak them."

"And this is my home."

"I'll ask again. Please leave," he said slowly.

The Mage looked deeply into Shang's eye.

"And if I don't?" she asked.

Shang looked at her for a second, and then…

He continued swinging his sword.

"This is why I don't want to live amongst you," Shang said as he swung another time.

"You enter my home."

"I ask you to leave."

"You threaten me."

"All this boasting and needless aggression."

"We have no conflict."

"I don't want to hurt you."

"Why do you want to hurt me?"

Shang said each of these short sentences between each swing, not looking at the Mage.

"Pointless."

Shang swung once more.

And once more.

And one more time.
