Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang actually had to wait for a long time.

It wasn't that the Sweepers were fully booked but that the reward for the mission hadn't reached adequate levels yet.

Every month, the Keeper increased the reward for the mission by ten Grade Six Mana Crystals until one of the Sweepers accepted the mission.

By then, Shang had waited nearly one and a half years.

"Someone accepted the mission," the Keeper informed Shang.

Shang stopped training and stepped out of the room.

Spike Ball was sneering at him while Ice Princess was ignoring everything and waited with her eyes closed.

Shang walked over to the Keeper.

"The location of this branch is secretive, even for Sweepers," she transmitted to him. "You will leave the branch and wait at this location. Make sure that the Sweeper can actually find you."

A map appeared in Shang's mind. The place where he was supposed to be waiting was around 5,000 kilometers away from the branch. This was still within the range of whatever the Temple of Blood was using to scan the surroundings, which meant that Shang could go there without any issues.

Shang nodded and left the branch without saying anything.

He had already received his instructions several months ago. From now on, he was only supposed to follow the commands of the Sweeper.

Shang's survival was in the interest of the Sweeper since they were being paid good money to protect him, and they knew better than him what to do in the wilderness.
