Sword God in a World of Magic

The fight had been very short, and Shang hadn't even moved a single step since the start.

If another person were here, they would be shocked by Shang's way of fighting.

Shang's "Spells" were very powerful, being able to block a beast a level above him with ease, and they could even severely injure such a powerful beast without needing much time to be prepared.

Additionally, the Spells were even invisible!

Lastly, the Spells didn't even show any kind of Affinity!

No one would be able to tell what kind of Element or Affinity Shang had used to kill his enemy. The Spells were invisible and didn't show any signs of any kind of Affinities.

Although, there was one possibility.

Did Shang have a Space or Gravity Affinity?

This was what these kinds of attacks from these kinds of people looked like, right?

Of course, not a single person would even entertain the thought that Shang was using something that wasn't Magic.

But one thing was clear.

No one would be able to tell what kind of Affinity Shang had and what kind of "Spells" he had just cast.

And while completely keeping his true power hidden, Shang managed to kill a beast a level above himself.

The only thing he had done was to imitate different movements of his different States and made the Mana of the world move in these ways.

The first block had been created by Shang, mimicking his Colossal Sword State blocking an attack.

The following slash had been created by Shang mimicking a slash with his Saber State.
