Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang finished explaining the World Connection to Queen Primordium, but instead of continuing to explain Void Break, Shang paused.

"Do you have any thoughts of a natural progression from that point onward?" he asked.

Queen Primordium absentmindedly played with her hair. "It's difficult," she said. "There is a certain feeling to World Connection, but I am uncertain of the normal route to get there."

"I'm also trying to think of a good way by taking your Path into account."

"There are two things I am thinking about here."

"One, increase the potential of your strongest weapon, which is your World Connection."

"Two, allow you to use your Sword States all at once."

"The problem is that the solutions to both problems are at opposite ends."

"Increasing the power of your World Connection requires a step forward, but fusing your Sword States requires a solidifying step that widens your foundation."

"Also, the additional complexity makes it much harder to come up with a good way forward."

"I would ask you to give me some time to think about these things in peace since this will solidify and deepen my knowledge of warriors and your power," Queen Primordium said.

Shang nodded.

The two of them fell silent, and Shang waited.

At the moment, Shang felt like he was wasting his time by just sitting here and waiting, but he knew that he wouldn't have enough time to do anything useful.

Additionally, all of this would result in Shang's power increasing even more in the future, and he knew that.

So, he just waited.
