Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang only looked at the distant Duke Torrent.

"For winning the war, it would be stupid not to accept your offer."

"However, accepting your offer would nullify half of the reason why this war even started in the first place."

Duke Torrent narrowed her eyes. She definitely didn't like what she was hearing.

"We want the warriors to finally have a place where they can thrive, but that is only half of the reason."

"Duke Whirlwind is a human just like all of us, and as a human, he has his own desires."

Shang slowly took out his sword.

"And his greatest desire right now is revenge."

Duke Torrent immediately started to cast several Spells.

She had never expected that they would refuse her offer, but she was still ready to act.

The warriors felt like their end had arrived.

They would die to Duke Torrent today.

However, Shang wasn't worried.

He couldn't receive any healing or Mana right now, but all his augmenting Spells were still active.

His speed, power, defense, thinking speed, perception, regeneration rate, life energy storage, and Mana storage were still boosted.

Fighting against an average Late High Mage would very likely result in Shang's death normally, but this was not the case with the current Shang.

As soon as Shang readied his sword, his surroundings started to distort and transform.

The air, water, and earth around him started to fall into pieces and transform into pure Mana.

All of this took a while to describe, but Shang had actually already shot forward as soon as all of this happened.

SHING!

Shang released Shock, but this time, there was no black streak.

Shang had activated his Domain of Entropy, and he generally only used that during one situation.

In an instant, Shang arrived in front of Duke Torrent.

His speed was far faster than Duke Torrent had anticipated.

Nevertheless, she had already readied one of her personal Spells.

Water drops gathered around her body, and an instant later, green wind surrounded them.
