Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang spent the next two days digesting the new experiences and information he had received by fighting Erel and Cindy.

Shang had fought a lot of powerful Mages with the Affinity Wheel in his inner world, but not even a single one had been comparable to Erel and Cindy.

The two of them had been on completely different levels.

By now, Shang could also tell how powerful the "powerful" Mages of the Affinity Wheel were.

A Mage deemed to be powerful was someone that could jump one level, which meant they had a 50/50 shot at winning against an average Mage one level above them.

How strong was that for an Empire?

It was strong enough to become a Spark.

It was not enough to become a Boltling.

As Shang thought about everything that had happened, his Spirit Sense threw a glance at the stone stele in the middle of his inner world.

He looked at Jerald's hand.

Jerald had been so powerful back then, but he would have only had a shot at becoming a Spark, and only if he became an Ancestral Mage and kept his Battle-Strength.

As for every other normal Mage in Area 23?

They wouldn't have been good enough to even become Sparks.

'I need to be more careful of these Clouds,' Shang thought. 'I expected Cindy to be an easy fight, but it wasn't easy at all. If I didn't use any of my abilities related to Entropy, I most likely wouldn't have won.'

'There are bound to be more powerful ones among them.'

Cindy had used two things that Shang hadn't expected to see.

She had transformed Fire and Ice Mana into Wind Mana, and she had manipulated the properties of Fire and Ice Mana.

Shang's fight against Cindy hadn't been a truly desperate one, but it had been a bit dangerous at times.

However, even such fights could help someone comprehend new things.

This was why so many Mages sought inspiration when they were stuck.

Two days later, Lucin arrived in front of Shang.

Right now, Shang was sitting in a random cave. It didn't really matter where he was since he was mostly focusing on his inner world.
