Sword God in a World of Magic

Nothing happened while Shang was flying southward.

The sun shone brightly in the sky.

People were doing their daily chores and meeting with friends.

Warriors were hunting in the wildernesses in teams.

It was a busy day like any other.

In comparison to 75 years ago, the current Storm Kingdom was much better off.

People didn't seem nearly as worried, and they had already returned to their previous selves before the Council had started to suppress the warriors.

The Kingdom had transformed into how it had been when Shang had just arrived in this world.

Growth.

Innovation.

Progress.

Prosperity.

These were the perfect words to describe the current Storm Kingdom.

Jerald had done an amazing job.

Just as expected.

Shang flew across the Thunder Horse Zone and looked down.

He could see the Thunder Horse walking around inside one of the cities, several children playing with it.

Shang remembered how Jerald had given his best to shield Shang from the Thunder Horse's eyes.

After a while, Shang left the Thunder Horse Zone and entered the Adamantite Behemoth Zone.

Shang saw a new city about ten kilometers away from the Adamantite Behemoth's horn, further away than the previous one.

Shang remembered how he had destroyed the city.

Back then, Jerald had told Shang that he was sorry. Jerald said that he was responsible for the deaths of all of these people and that Shang shouldn't blame himself.

After some time, Shang reached the Empress Cobra Zone.

George had died to the Council here, and Shang also remembered his conversation with Jerald while traveling to King Skythunder for the first time. A big part of the conversation had taken place here.

For the first time during his journey, Shang stopped in the air.

Then, he flew toward the west, toward the Ice Wyvern Zone.

Shang passed by the three-way border and entered the Ice Wyvern Zone.

Shang saw the city where he had exchanged the ice wood, Blizzard's Edge.

He saw the Southern Wild, where the guard had warned Shang of the bandits.
