Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang returned to the town and took over as Town Lord again.

He had only been gone for a couple of minutes, and nothing happened during those.

After checking through the town and making sure that everything was alright, Shang looked at the mortal district again.

It had changed so much.

The part of the mortal district outside the town was now over two kilometers wide, and the warriors had built powerful and tall walls.

The academies were packed with students.

By now, the academy had probably reached the level of the warrior's academy in Area 23.

In just 40 years, it had closed a gap of 400 years.

And how had the Warrior Academy achieved that?

Powerful Mages.

The Mages had built the academy.

The Mages' technology protected the town.

The Mages set up the mortal district.

The Mages had simplified the Bloodline Infusion and had created several methods to forge equipment.

The academy in Area 23 had gone through several dangerous times.

The Day of Chaos.

The civil war.

The threat of other Kingdoms.

But instead of fighting the Mages, the Warrior Academy here benefited from them.

By now, there were hundreds of Commander Stage warriors in the mortal district, and there was a two-digit number of True Path Stage warriors.
