Sword God in a World of Magic

BANG!

Shang exploded with Light Mana again, and the maw vanished.

However, Shang had used up more life energy than he had absorbed from the previous fights, and his body had withered a bit.

The Mage narrowed her eyes.

Her opponent was far stronger than she had anticipated.

Shang was already approaching her again, and at this moment, her Focus began to shine.

Three balls of darkness shot out of the Focus, right at Shang.

Shang's right eye also narrowed, and he put his sword in front of him to block.

The Mage prepared another Spell.

The Ghosts of Darkness would push Shang away, even if he managed to block them perfectly.

The Ghosts of Darkness reached Shang's sword.

WHOOOM!

But at that moment, the Ghosts of Darkness suddenly vanished, reduced to nothing but normal Darkness Mana.

Domain of Entropy!

Shang had used nearly 50% of his Mana to cancel the Spell, but it was worth it.

As soon as the concentrated Darkness Mana reached Sword, it got absorbed.

Sword began to darken and left behind shadows in the shadowy surroundings.

BANG!

Shang exploded forward with another Blast and reached his opponent.

The Mage hadn't been ready for Shang to just shrug off her Spell like that.

BOOOM!

Sword hit the Mana Shield, its Darkness Mana destabilizing it, which required the Mana Shield to waste even more Mana.

Even though the Mage had a Darkness Affinity, Mana Shield was an Affinity-neutral Spell.

Darkness Mana was still devastating to it.
