Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang went to Fleros and bought another two Grade Seven Mana Crystals worth of Furnace Pills.

Fleros had given Shang around 2,400 Furnace Pills ever since he had arrived in the Hibye, and Fleros still had difficulties wrapping his mind around the fact that Shang wanted more.

Sure, people wanted to become more powerful, but this was just too extreme.

Nevertheless, Fleros had decided to keep a stock of about 1,000 Furnace Pills, and that had been just enough since Shang had asked for 800 more.

Shang left again and flew back to his Isolation Barrier.

"Wait a second!" someone shouted.

Shang stopped and turned his head to the side.

A woman with blonde hair and blue eyes flew over to Shang.

She wore white robes that did their best to hide her curves but failed.

Shang didn't say anything.

"Hey, so, ehm," she said as she looked to the side uncertainly, her fingers twiddling with each other. "Don't you want to know why I stopped you?" she asked.

Shang could tell that she was an early Archmage, which meant that she had just recently been a High Mage Cloud.

Shang didn't say anything. He just remained silent as he faced her.

The Archmage grew nervous, and her face became a bit red. It was like she felt uncomfortable under Shang's intense… stare?

After a couple of seconds, Shang looked away again and continued flying.

When the Mage saw that, her eyes widened in surprise. "Hey, wait!"

"What?" Shang asked with annoyance as he turned to her again.

Shang's aggressive tone made the Mage recoil, but she wouldn't stop now. "So, I've seen your fight, and I think you're really strong."

"I don't care," Shang said coldly. "Next time, just say that you don't have anything important to say."

Then, Shang shot away.

The Mage blinked a couple of times in shock.

"Hey, wait!"
