Sword God in a World of Magic

A person stepped through the new portal shortly after it appeared.

"Seems like the guys from the Grandmountain Kingdom are here," Agon said with a snort.

Shang and Jerald looked over with interest.

They hadn't met the leaders of the Grandmountain Kingdom yet, and they wondered what they would be like.

The first person that stepped through was a thin, brown-haired man that looked to be in his thirties. He was about 165 cm tall, and he had several bags under his eyes.

Shang thought that he looked like a thin programmer from Earth.

Someone that didn't move much while staying up late to play games.

He had a very bored expression, and he looked like coming here was already too stressful for him.

However, the amount of Earth Mana Shang could feel coming off of this guy was insane.

There was no doubt.

This was King Grandmountain.

"You look tired as always, Wilbur," Koran said with a polite chuckle.

King Grandmountain, Wilbur, only moved his bored and annoyed gaze at Koran. "How long until the meeting starts?" he asked in a tired voice.

"It will start in about an hour," Koran answered.

Wilbur only nodded absentmindedly and walked to the side of the plateau.

Obviously, he wasn't very interested in meeting the others.

Jerald only raised an eyebrow and walked over. "Greetings, I'm-"

"It doesn't matter who you are," Wilbur cut off Jerald without turning around.

However, he also didn't sound aggressive. He simply sounded like talking to Jerald was too bothersome.

"I will be gone in a month anyway. Introduce yourself to the others," Wilbur said.

Jerald was a bit taken aback by King Grandmountain's off-putting demeanor, but he still retreated without saying anything further.

A second later, a middle-aged woman with beautiful blue hair stepped through the portal. When she saw Jerald retreating from Wilbur, she immediately knew what had happened.

"I must apologize for Assistant Supervisor Wilbur Grandmountain," she said in a cold but polite tone. "He is very busy. If you need anything from him, please contact me. I'm his assistant. You may call me Mrs. Flowing Blossom, Mr. Whirlwind."
