Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang slowly opened his right eye.

He had died in the trial, but sure enough, his left eye hadn't recovered.

He looked to his side and saw Sword lying just beside him. As always, it wanted to stay by Shang's side.

Instead of standing up, Shang only continued lying on the ground, looking at the plain sky of his inner world.

The entire fight went through his head.

'If I had a working set of armor, I would have won,' he thought as he remembered the robes of the Fire Mage.

The robes had blocked two fatal attacks. A luxury Shang didn't have.

'Instead of overusing my Domain of Entropy, I could have used my armor to take a fatal attack. With that, I would have been able to survive the last explosion and continue. The next opponent wouldn't have been a problem, even in my injured state. That would have given me an opportunity to regenerate.'

'Sure enough, equipment is also a part of power.'

And then, Shang's mind went to the last few words the Fire Mage had said.

The Fire Mage had managed to shock Shang by saying something that only someone from Earth could know.

However, the God specifically brought people to this world to stop the Mages from being too powerful, and that Fire Mage had definitely been someone that was fully focused on the path of Magic.

If the Fire Mage hadn't said something like that, Shang would have killed him before the explosion became too dangerous.

Shang furrowed his brows as he thought back to how the Mage behaved during the fight.

He was very different from all the opponents Shang had faced before.

He had even called out the names of his attacks.
