Sword God in a World of Magic

After this issue was resolved, Shang told George about the last decade.

He remained mostly truthful throughout his retelling, even telling him about the Blackshadow Kingdom and the Spirit Spring Kingdom.

Of course, George realized that things weren't adding up. After all, Shang had just returned from the Grandmountain Kingdom. The Spirit Spring Kingdom was on the other side of the world.

However, he also knew that this was probably related to the political thing Shang had referred to earlier. So, he didn't ask.

Naturally, Shang didn't tell George about his control over the Abominations. This was a secret Shang couldn't tell anyone in the world, lest he was viewed as the enemy of the entire world, which he kind of was.

After hearing everything about the last decade from Shang's mouth, George could see how Shang had changed so much.

He definitely hadn't had it easy.

George had a look of nostalgia in his eyes while listening to Shang. Hearing of Shang's problems, he was reminded of the time he had been hunted.

He hadn't always had Duke Whirlwind as his backer, and there had been no Warrior Academy back then.

The Mages realized that George was very talented and powerful, which made them fear him.

George had been on the run from an angry noble of the Mages more than once.

That was until the young Duke Whirlwind saw his potential and recruited him.

All of this happened around 80 years ago.

George also told Shang a bit about his past. Shang was no longer the young boy that didn't know how important some secrets were.

Additionally, it felt good to tell someone else about the things he had gone through.

After listening to George, Shang also finally learned what happened to the person that came from Earth that had come before George.

"That's when I killed him," George said after telling Shang about his teacher.

Shang nodded. "Understandable."

George's predecessor was someone that acted kind and acted like he wanted to help everyone, but he had actually used George as a guinea pig for his experiments.
