Sword God in a World of Magic

"It's nice to see you as well, Wester," Queen Primordium answered.

"I presume you're here because of our young friend here?" Wester asked. "I think I already know why you're here."

"How will we proceed?" Queen Primordium asked.

Wester turned to Shang and looked at him while he scratched his chin in thought. "You have a fivefold Spirit Sense, right?"

Shang nodded.

"You're not a Mage, right?" Wester asked.

Shang nodded again.

Wester absentmindedly nodded a couple of times as he fell into thought.

"Difficult," Wester said. "We don't really think about the supremacy of Mages in our everyday life. Everyone that we know is already a Mage."

"Only when there is actual contrast can we take note of the difference."

"I'm no different," Wester added. "I haven't even entertained the possibility that a warrior might become powerful enough to rival King Contenders. That possibility just seems so far in the future."

Wester remained silent for a couple of seconds.

Queen Primordium and Shang didn't say anything.

"Past, present, and future," Wester said. "In the past, Mages were antagonistic to warriors. In the present, Mages are interested in raising warriors."

"The future is still uncertain."

"Will the past be repeated, or will there be cooperation?"

Wester stayed silent for a while again.

"The past dictates the future, but the past isn't always correct. Regret is a word, and if the past were always correct, regret wouldn't exist."
