Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang and the Sweeper only looked at the Ancestral Mage.

There had been too many plot twists in the past minutes, and they had some issues with actually coming to terms with reality.

The powerful Ancestral Mage that wanted to kill them had now asked them for a job.

"You have a Light Affinity?" the Sweeper asked.

Even though he had long white hair and looked rather heroic, he had still cloaked his fists in Darkness Mana, which meant that his main Affinity was probably Light, but he also had some mastery over Darkness.

The Ancestral Mage nodded. "Correct," he said without any worries.

The Sweeper also nodded. "Hide your aura for a second. We are in a dangerous place, and we shouldn't talk here."

The Ancestral Mage only shrugged before suddenly vanishing.

Even though he hadn't moved, Shang and the Sweeper couldn't find him anymore.

They knew that he was here, but as long as he didn't use any additional Mana, it was impossible to find him.

His ability to stay hidden was shockingly terrifying, even better than the Sweeper's ability.

However, this wasn't actually as surprising as one would think.

First of all, the Ancestral Mage used two Affinities to keep himself hidden instead of one. On top of that, he had been able to join the Twilight Dusk Family, which automatically meant that he was in the top 1% of Ancestral Mages on his level.

And he was a Late Ancestral Mage in addition to that!

He could probably even fight Peak Ancestral Mages!

Someone like that could create a terrifyingly powerful organization, and organizations like the Natural Selection Company or the Temple of Blood would want to make him join them desperately.

But in the Twilight Dusk Family, he had only been an average soldier.

In fact, judging by what the Sweeper and Shang had seen, he hadn't even been that.

He had been a mere servant to some arrogant High Mage.

Such a powerful Mage was only good enough to serve some kid belonging to the Twilight Dusk Family.
