Sword God in a World of Magic

Everyone talked with each other while waiting for the next duel to begin.

They had all come here to see the warrior get stomped out like a bug, but instead, the Mage had been stomped out.

However, the people also knew that quite a bit of luck was involved in the battle. If Erel had taken the situation more seriously, he would have most likely won.

But that was the crucial word of the sentence.

Likely.

The public sentiment had shifted from certain victory to likely victory.

Sure, there had been a lot of luck, but the warrior had still moved at incredible speeds, and he even managed to destroy a Mana Shield with a single attack.

These feats were very impressive, with or without luck.

Very few of the present people were conceited people that couldn't accept that they had been wrong after having been given proof.

However, Shang's power made the following duel even more interesting to them.

They wanted to see what would happen.

"Ten minutes are up," Lucin said. "Cloud Cindy, please enter the arena."

Cindy narrowed her eyes and floated into the arena.

Her mind was stalwart and focused.

She would treat this like a genuine life-and-death battle.

Cindy summoned her Focus, which was just as impressive as Erel's Focus.

Shang still carried his Addum and Subsis.

Lucin looked at the two combatants and saw that they were ready.

"Three…"

Cindy's Focus began to catch fire.
