Sword God in a World of Magic

Everyone just looked at the powerful Mage Lord that had just arrived.

Under normal circumstances, this would be an extremely dangerous situation for Shang and the Sweeper, but the ridiculousness of the earlier situation made it difficult to feel any kind of genuine threat.

"Light Bringer," the Ancestral Mage repeated, "the Dawn Seedling has ordered me to kill these two people since they have dared to come close to the Dawn Seedling's training area."

The Light Bringer blinked once without any amusement. "I've heard. What I am asking is what was actually going on. What I have seen just now didn't look like killing someone."

"Light Bringer, my original plan was to follow these two until they left the Eternal Maw's territory. After sufficient distance was put between the Eternal Maw and us, I would have attacked."

Shang took a deep breath.

The earlier situation might have been ridiculous, but if the Ancestral Mage had actually gone through with his actual plan, things definitely wouldn't be funny.

"However, the Dawn Seedling had contacted me while I was following the two of them and demanded to know why I wasn't back yet. I have tried to explain my plan, but the Dawn Seedling refused to let me speak."

"He said that he knows what he is doing and that his judgment is superior. Every second I am not following his judgment is another second of wasted time."

The atmosphere subtly changed after the Ancestral Mage said that.

"Then, he ordered me to immediately attack without letting me speak," the Ancestral Mage said.

"So, I attacked. Due to the Eternal Maw's proximity, I couldn't unleash any powerful Spells, or I would die as well. That's why I had to attack with my fists, but I'm not very experienced in physical fighting."

After that, the Ancestral Mage became quiet again as he waited for an answer.

By now, Shang and the Sweeper finally understood what had happened.

Earlier, they couldn't imagine any possible way this situation could have occurred, but now, it was clear.

They had believed that it was impossible for an Ancestral Mage to make such a stupid decision, and they had been right.
