Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang had already suspected that the God hadn't told Shang the entire truth at the beginning, and this confirmed it.

Shang continued reading.

"Several of my friends have probably reached the Mage Emperor Realm after my death. Since I am dead, it means that the Mana stored in my body has been freed up and returned to the world."

"It pains me to write this, but for the good of the world, they must be sacrificed when the time is right."

"The world can only support one God and one Emperor at any given moment."

"And that might not even be true for you, Successor. I don't know how much time has passed before you got hold of this letter, but the Abominations keep reducing the Mana in the entire world."

"It might be possible that the world can't even support that single additional Emperor anymore."

"You might need to kill everyone."

"It might even be impossible to gather enough Mana to reach Godhood, even if you kill everyone."

"I don't know, and that thought scares me."

"It would mean that the Abominations have won."

"I can just hope that it isn't too late yet."

"For the good of the world, we have to become sinners."

"I don't know what will kill me in the future, but it must be something of incredible power."

"I can only hope that you will find a way to overcome this hurdle and free the world of this disease."

Shang knew that hurdle very well.

The God.

By now, Shang could guess what happened back then.

Lucius became a God and tried to find a solution to the Abomination problem.

Then, the God and Lucius fought for some reason.
