Sword God in a World of Magic

Chapter 400

Shang and Ranos stopped talking after that.

Ranos thought that Shang was angry at being called a young boy, but he actually wasn't.

In Shang's eyes, Ranos seemed to be someone that was stuck in their way and wasn't willing to look at the Mages as individuals instead of as a group.

Because of that, Ranos' opinion of Shang was not very important to him.

After a couple of hours, they reached the Ice Wyvern Zone.

While they were traveling through it, Shang didn't feel any suspicious Mages with his Pseudo-Spirit Sense, which probably meant that they knew that a powerful group of Duke Whirlwind's people would be traveling through here.

Some minutes later, they reached the Storm Eagle Zone. Shang had been here for several months, but now, he could officially walk amongst people again.

As Shang ran through the Farm Line, he fell into nostalgia.

He still remembered the first time he had come here.

Everything here had been more powerful than him by a lot.

Shang and the group reached Warrior's Paradise in the middle of the night, after which they split apart.

The Mages returned to whatever they were doing previously while Ranos and Shang entered Warrior's Paradise.

As Shang entered, more of his memories awakened.

The first time he had come here, it had also been at night.

"You're back."

Shang looked in front of him and saw a familiar face.

The Dean.

His Teacher.

"I'm back, Teacher," Shang said as he looked at him.

The two of them only looked at each other for a while.

Vice-Dean Ranos had vanished as soon as the Dean appeared in front of Shang.

As Shang looked at his Teacher for the first time in ten years, he was surprised.

His Teacher felt very similar to him, but there were still some differences.

The Dean felt cold to Shang, but there was a certain honor and righteousness to his coldness.

These were qualities Shang couldn't identify with.

To Shang, his power was the most important thing, and he would do anything to become more powerful.

That included lying, deceit, and plotting.

In the past, Shang had seen himself as a very honest person, but that image had vanished as soon as he began talking to Duke Whirlwind again.

He had become accustomed to lying and hiding in the last ten years.
