Sword God in a World of Magic

As all the warriors cheered around him, Shang only released a deep sigh.

He had come too close to death too many times in the last couple of seconds.

Shang only looked at the dark sky above him.

'The two Mages that killed George and Mattheo are dead.'

'Duke Torrent and Duke Mithril are dead.'

'The Council is dead.'

'Susan is dead.'

'Everyone that was involved in George's and Mattheo's murders is dead.'

Then, Shang looked to the place where George's spear had died.

'I guess it didn't have much reason left to live. It only lived for revenge, and when it saw that the revenge would soon be completed, it went in to attack Susan on its own.'

Shang sighed.

"Count Sword, you saved my life! I can't thank you enough!"

Shang looked to the side as one warrior ran up to him, some tears in his eyes.

Shang didn't know who this was.

"Count Sword, I don't know how to repay you! You saved my life!"

Shang looked over and saw another warrior approach him.

Shang also didn't recognize that one.

"Count Sword, you saved my life!"

"Mine as well!"

"Count Sword!"

"Thank you so much, Count Sword!"

"You're our hero, Count Sword!"

One warrior after the other arrived near Shang, everyone standing around him.

They were all shouting their thanks at him.

'Right,' Shang thought. 'I guess I saved a couple of lives while getting involved in the other battlefields.'

"You saved my life as well," Sylvia said with a smile.

"I think you saved mine as well, Shang."

Shang looked with surprise at Jerald, who was also walking over.
