Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang didn't react in any special way to Wester's words.

"I would prefer the second way," Shang said.

Shang couldn't see it, but Queen Primordium was looking at him with furrowed brows.

When the Custodian talked about severe pain, he was probably talking about some very serious pain, and to top it all off, Shang would have this pain for the rest of his life.

Yet, Shang didn't even ask the Custodian about the pain.

This didn't make Shang appear like someone that could resist a lot of pain but like someone that was hopelessly overestimating themselves.

However, Shang had a fivefold Spirit Sense. So, maybe he actually knew what he was talking about.

"You don't care about the pain?" Wester asked with a smile.

"It doesn't matter," Shang answered.

Silence.

The two Mage Kings waited for Shang to elaborate, but Shang had already said everything he wanted to say.
