Sword God in a World of Magic

Eventually, Shang came up with an idea, but it wasn't a very good one.

"We could just make copies of the book and dump them all over the Kingdom," he said. "Nobody would be able to link it back to us."

"That's wrong," the Dean said. "The Spell to copy the books leaves traces of someone's aura behind. Whoever copies the book will be found by the Dukes, and they will undergo a Mind Read. In the end, it will be linked back to one of us."

"Even if we send a proxy and kill the proxy after making the request, the Mages aren't stupid. They know what will happen if they copy this book. As soon as they get their hands on the book, they will immediately report it to their superiors."

"Additionally, it requires a lot of resources to make copies of books. We would need a True Mage, and they would never accept the request."

"The Bloodline Infusion is one thing, but this technique is something else. This technique is so advanced and useful to warriors that it puts the Bloodline Infusion to shame. The Bloodline Infusion might increase the power of the warriors, but that doesn't become relevant as long as they don't reach the True Path Stage."

"This technique might create hundreds of True Path Stage warriors within the next century. That would be akin to 100 new Dukes. The warriors would literally advance faster than the Mages."

When Shang heard that, he furrowed his brows. "That doesn't seem right. Why would this technique make warriors advance faster than Mages? Don't the Mages still have all their inheritances?"

"They do," the Dean said. "However, I don't think they are present in this place."

Shang raised an eyebrow. "With place, you mean the five Kingdoms?"

The Dean nodded. "You're not stupid. You should have realized that there is a wider world. Just the fact that we got to ask nine questions tells us as much. The powerful Mage that threw the Storm Eagle away is additional proof."

"I think the Mages on the outside have something similar or even better in the outer world, but that thing is not present in this place."

"While the Bloodline Infusion looks like a problem to the Mages, this technique will look like a genuine threat. I fear that the Council will immediately get rid of it with whatever means necessary."

At that moment, Shang got another idea.

"What about King Skythunder?"

"What about him?" the Dean asked.
