Sword God in a World of Magic

The entire branch fell into silence.

Eaten by a wolf?

Then why hadn't White Ghost also been eaten by that wolf?!

Desert Storm was a Late Archmage, and he was the second strongest Named Agent of the branch! If there were a beast powerful enough to kill him, it would also be powerful enough to kill White Ghost!

But even more than that, Desert Storm should have received information about whatever beast was approaching their location! He shouldn't even have come into contact with such a strong beast!

White Ghost's statement couldn't be a more obvious lie.

But then, what happened if Desert Storm hadn't been killed by a beast?

Did he flee?

No, that made no sense.

If White Ghost were on the Temple of Blood's side, he wouldn't be lying for Desert Storm, and if White Ghost were on Desert Storm's side, he wouldn't have returned to this place.

So, did White Ghost kill him?

Sure, White Ghost was very powerful, but he couldn't possibly jump three levels, right? Especially after literally just reaching his new level.

But then, what the fuck even happened?!

Nothing made sense!
