Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang stepped forward from behind the Mage.

The barbarians didn't look at Shang and only focused on the distant enemy.

Shang didn't look any different except for two things.

His Sword wasn't there, and he had a new ring on his finger.

Yes, the Mages had given him a Space Ring for the mission. If Shang did well, he could even keep it, giving him an excuse to finally use his inner world again.

Right now, Sword was in Shang's inner world.

Shang slowly stepped past the Mages and barbarians until he was at the very front.

An army of barbarians and Mages stood behind Shang while an impenetrable fortress was on the horizon.

Shang cracked his neck, took a deep breath, and closed his remaining eye.

Two seconds later, Shang's eye opened.

BOOOOM!

Shang exploded forward with all his power, leaving a small crater behind.

The army didn't move.

In the distance, the Summoners and Mages on the castle looked with confusion at their enemy.

There was a lone barbarian charging at them.

They weren't sure what they should think of that.

Even the strongest barbarian in the world would be turned into dust before even reaching the halfway point.

Was he a messenger or diplomat?

No, he didn't wear the universal signs of one.

Then, what was he doing?

Was he defecting?

But then, the Mages behind him would directly kill him.

Shang reached his top speed quite quickly.

With just his body, Shang reached the speed of an Initial Champion Stage barbarian, which was quite fast. In fact, Shang was running at around 180 kph.

However, in front of an army of powerful True Mages, that speed wasn't anything special.

"Kill him," the general ordered.

A Mage near him took out his Focus with two Amplifiers and readied a Spell.

This was a Late True Mage, and one Spell of his could decimate Shang from several kilometers away.

A bit later, an intense fireball had been readied.

From a distance, Shang could see the fireball and got reminded of his first Day of Chaos.

The Mages of Warrior's Paradise had completely annihilated the surrounding beasts with that Spell.

The Mage unleashed the fireball, which shot towards Shang at blinding speeds.

Even if he stepped to the side right now, he would still be hit by the explosion, which would injure him severely.
