Sword God in a World of Magic

A couple of hours later, the Isolation Barrier around the town was activated, and the important people were informed about an Archbeast that had been detected near the town.

The normal people could see that the Isolation Barrier had been activated, but they didn't know the specific reason. However, they could guess that it was probably an Archbeast.

The powerful people grew a bit worried.

The Magic Circle was indicating a Mid Archbeast. It wasn't super powerful, but it also wasn't weak.

Shang left his castle and flew towards the exit of the town.

Since only Archmages and very powerful Wind High Mages could fly, nearly everyone looked at him.

Usually, they were used to only seeing their Town Lord and his two Archmages fly around, but this time, they saw someone new.

Many of them still didn't know that Shang was the new Town Lord since only the elite had been informed of it.

Since Shang was the owner of the Isolation Barrier, he could pass through it without any issues.

Shang had already found the beast with his Spirit Sense.

SHING!

In the sky, Shang's body warped before it vanished.

The guards and powerful people in the town were surprised when they saw that.

Shang hadn't shown any indication of using Mana Step, but he had essentially vanished just as fast as when their old Town Lord had used Mana Step.

Their new Town Lord definitely wasn't slow.

The guards and elite looked at their shining stones with anticipation.

As soon as the beast died, the stones would stop glowing.

They waited.

And five seconds later, they stopped glowing.

Once more, the people were surprised.

That was really fast!
