Shang knew that Sylvia couldn't be weak, but her Spells had been more powerful than he had expected.

Especially that last one.

Even without Shang, Sylvia would have probably been able to kill the Mage, but not before the Council arrived.

But now was not the time to think about such stuff.

Shang destroyed the body and collected the Focus and the Space Ring.

While running towards Sylvia, Shang fed Sword more ore, and when he arrived, Sword had already recovered to its Colossal Sword State.

Sword flew over to Sylvia, and she lightly jumped on top of it.

As Shang landed in front of her, he threw the Focus and Space Ring to Sylvia, who started to cast a couple of Spells.

Shang and Sword took to the skies. According to their estimates, the Council would arrive in, at most, a minute.

After a couple of seconds, Shang's Spirit Sense picked up a High Mage.

One of the Council members was rapidly charging towards the place where Shang and Sylvia had just fought, but the two of them were already 15 kilometers away.

The High Mage wouldn't be able to track them from such a distance.

At that moment, Sylvia threw the Focus and Space Ring back to Shang. "There was a tracking Magic Circle on the Space Ring, but I dealt with it."

Shang nodded and put the two things away.

Now, Shang trusted Sylvia.

This fight had been the best opportunity to backstab Shang and Jerald. Shang would have almost certainly died, and Sylvia would have thought that she would easily survive.

Yet, she hadn't betrayed them.

She had done exactly what had been asked of her, and she had helped Jerald and Shang eliminate a major threat.

There was no point in gaining their trust with this act for some act of betrayal later. This opportunity would have caused the most damage to Jerald.

This could only mean that Sylvia had truly joined their side without any scheme in mind.

Just as Shang and Sylvia entered the Cloud Serpent Zone, Shang's Communication Crystal rang.

"Are you done?" Jerald asked.

"Yes, the mission was a success," Shang answered.

Shang could hear a sigh from the other side. It seemed like Jerald had also had some worries regarding this mission.

"That's good," he said.

"How did it go on your end?" Shang asked.
