Sword God in a World of Magic

"Why did the prices increase?! One bag of grain was worth Mana Scraps last week! Why is it suddenly one and a half?!" a dirty and thin woman shouted to a tall and burly thug standing in front of her.

"That's the price. Pay or leave," the thug said with a sneer.

The woman gritted her fist in hatred and fear.

These bastards!

She could see how they extorted everyone and how they increased the prices for young and beautiful women so that they had no other choice but to pay with their bodies!

Just the thought of sleeping with this arrogant piece of shit disgusted her.

But what could she do?

She had a daughter at home!

She needed the grain!

BANG!

Suddenly, the woman was thrown to the side, hitting the ground.

"Move it!" a man from behind her shouted as he handed over a Mana Scrap to the ruffian.

The ruffian took out a bag of grain and handed it over.

How was she supposed to explain to her daughter that they couldn't eat today?

"Mage Guards!"

Everyone stopped moving and looked at the person that had just shouted.

Someone had just come running towards them in a panic.

"Mage Guards are coming!" the person shouted in horror.

Almost everyone became white in the face.

Mage Guards were terrifying!

Whenever a Mage Guard noticed someone stealing trash in the actual town, they would punish them by breaking one of their hands.

Mage Guards were terrifying existences to these people.

From time to time, the people here would dare to venture outside their little village and enter the Mage Town.

There, they would scrounge for little bits of solid Mana. Apparently, the gangs were interested in these bits of solid Mana.

In truth, these bits of solid Mana were just some random scrapings from some small Mana Crystals. They were so small and worthless that no True Mage would even look at them.

But these little Mana Scraps were the very things that decided if a person survived or died in this part of the town.

Yet, the Mage Guards were the very people that made such an excursion dangerous.

The Mage Guards were the most feared enemy of the people here.
