Sword God in a World of Magic

"You're also joining this time?" a young man with ocean blue hair asked another guy with grey hair.

"Yep," the other guy said with a smile. "All my gains from the Trial of Want have been used up. Now, I need some new resources."

"Man, I wonder how strong you've gotten after that trip," the first guy said. "I heard you got a pretty good evaluation."

The other guy laughed. "It wasn't bad," he said with a smirk.

"Maybe you can actually take down- oh, speak of the devil. There he is," the first guy said as he looked in a different direction.

The other guy raised an eyebrow and also looked in that direction.

And he wasn't the only one.

Right now, over 200 people were gathered in a big plaza near the middle of the Hibye.

There were around 150 High Mages, 30 Archmages, and about 20 Ancestral Mages, and right now, they were all looking at the new arrival.

Shang landed near the edge of the plaza, not greeting anyone.

"You know him?" the guy with grey hair asked the guy with blue hair via voice transmission.

"Everyone knows of him," the blue-haired guy answered.

"Really? Is he that strong?" the grey-haired guy asked.

"Well, he was definitely above average when he was amongst the Archmage Clouds, but I'm not sure about right now," the blue-haired man transmitted. "But his power is not why he is so well known. Can't you feel how strange his Aura feels?"

"Yeah, sure," the other guy answered. "I can feel that his Aura is very weird, but there are many Clouds with weird Auras."

"He's not a Mage," the first guy said.

The eyes of the other guy shot open in shock. "Wait, what?"

"He joined after a century after you went into seclusion. Turns out, there's a warrior with a fourfold Spirit Sense, and he is that warrior."
