Sword God in a World of Magic

The jester had been watching Shang with interest.

Almost everyone only experienced death once, and they never had an opportunity to think back to how it was to die.

Nearly dying and being in the process of dying were very different from actually dying.

Some people would gain the opportunity to feel how it was to come close to death, but they weren't allowed to actually touch it.

But there still were ways to comprehend the level four Concept of Death.

For example, the Death Empress had once put herself into a coma for over a thousand years, which was about as close to death as one could get.

One wouldn't be able to experience the world or think about one's decision while one was lying in a coma.

Everything only happened after.

It was interesting to see someone actually experience death and have the opportunity to reflect on it.

"Sure," the God said as the Affinity Wheel spun again.

Shang didn't move or say anything as he waited for the Affinity Wheel to stop.

When it finally stopped, he simply used Void Break and unleashed Missile.

In an instant, the Mage had been killed.

Shang reloaded his swords and waited for the next fight.

BANG!
