Sword God in a World of Magic

Lucin also looked at Shang after Queen Primordium asked that question.

He was also interested in the answer, but he wanted to wait with the question until they were more familiar with each other.

"I can't," Shang answered.

"Curious," Queen Primordium added, "why not?"

"The power of the Abominations took it from me," Shang said.

Shang tried his best not to let it show, but he was extremely nervous right now.

This was the most dangerous moment.

"I've heard of that," Queen Primordium said. "Don't resist. I need to confirm something."

Then, Shang felt a smooth finger touch the side of his head.

Shang did his absolute best not to act suspicious, and he didn't resist.

He trusted in the Lightning Manor's philosophy that the mind of every individual was a sacred place that wasn't allowed to be looked into or manipulated.

As long as she didn't read his mind, everything should be fine.

Lucius, the Mage Emperor, had told Shang that his Spell, Humanity, couldn't even be seen by an Emperor.

After some seconds, the finger retreated from Shang's head.

"Indeed, your soul has been altered in more ways than one," she said.

"Could you please explain?" Shang asked. "I would also like to know more about this."

At this moment, Shang felt a mountain of relief.

"There are two things wrong with your soul, and one of them is more troublesome to solve than the other," she said.
