Sword God in a World of Magic

"Jerald, I need you to come here right now," Shang said to his Communication Crystal.

"Did something happen?" Jerald asked with a serious voice.

"Yes, something serious has happened. Come to the Caves," Shang answered.

"Are you in danger?" Jerald asked.

"No."

"I will be there in five minutes," Jerald said before cutting the connection.

For the next five minutes, Shang only waited in the middle of the cave. The spear had already told Sword about everything that happened, and Sword had told Shang.

The day Shang had feared for many reasons had finally arrived.

He had lost one of his friends, and he knew that there was nothing he could do about it right now.

When Shang had fought Mervin in the trial, he had come to the realization that one day, one of his friends would die, and he would be forced to stand by and only watch.

Shang had put his power before everything else, and this was the sacrifice he had chosen to make.

The Council very likely already had preparations in place in case news got out, and someone came to take revenge.

Either an even more powerful Mage would wait near the killer, or the Council had prepared some kind of surveillance Magic Circle to record Shang's act of killing a High Mage of their Kingdom.

In both cases, Shang would die.

As Shang waited in the darkness, his memories of George played in his mind.

He remembered when George had invited him to his office.

Back then, Shang hated George.

George seemed so cold and brutal in his eyes.

Yet, as more time passed, Shang realized that George had actually sacrificed a lot for the warriors. Without him, the warriors would still be the Mages' dogs.

There would be no Bloodline Infusion.

There would be no True Path Stage warriors.

There would be no basic training techniques for the Caterpillar Class.
