Sword God in a World of Magic

As Shang continued flying towards the north, he also saw the first Archmage Clouds.

There were currently three of them sitting in a circle and talking animatedly about several complex runes and Magic Circles they had drawn on the ground.

However, before Shang could actually hear what the three of them were talking about, all three of them stopped talking and frowned.

"Hey!" one of them shouted in annoyance. "Listening in on other people's conversation is rude!"

Shang was quite surprised when he heard that. He wasn't specifically trying to remain hidden, but just by sheer habit, Shang had still looked at them in a very covert manner.

Yet, all three of them immediately noticed his spying as soon as he actually paid attention.

This only happened to Shang when he tried to look at someone more powerful than him.

However, these three Archmages were all weaker than him.

Shang also couldn't feel any complicated Magic Circles around them that could alert someone of foreign Spirit Senses.

This meant that the three of them had noticed Shang just by instinct.

After Shang heard their complaint, he simply looked away again. He wasn't actually really interested in what they were talking about. He had simply been looking around, and the three of them had just caught his Spirit Sense.

The three couldn't see Shang since he was outside their Spirit Sense's range, but they could still tell that he had looked away.

"Probably a new Ancestral Mage," one of them said to the others. "They always snoop around because they are not used to everyone noticing their Spirit Sense."

After that, the three of them resumed talking about whatever they had been talking about before.
