Sword God in a World of Magic

The Myriad King had to chuckle a bit when he saw Shang's nonchalant attitude.

It was like he was talking to some people on the street instead of two Mage Kings.

The Starlight Queen, on the other hand, just furrowed her brows.

The Starlight Queen was someone that deeply respected her superiors.

In her mind, power and contributions deserved respect.

However, she also knew that this was her own philosophy, and she knew that she couldn't expect everyone to share that philosophy with her.

She had met enough humans with horrible attitudes.

She knew that trying to change all of them was an exercise in futility.

"Are you the reason why the Ancestor left?" the Myriad King asked as he inspected Shang with interest.

As the head of the Research Department, he knew a lot about other Paths, and he had also already noticed that Shang wasn't actually a Mage.

Shang nodded. "Yes, but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to tell you."

"Oh?" the Myriad King uttered with interest.

Then, he put his hand to his chin and rubbed it in thought.

The entire time, he kept looking at Shang.

"You have a fivefold Spirit Sense," he said.

At that moment, Fleros' eyes widened in absolute shock.

What?!

Fleros turned to look at Shang in disbelief.

A fivefold Spirit Sense?

Sure, Shang was a Cloud, but there was a difference between a normal Cloud and one with a fivefold Spirit Sense!

The Starlight Queen also looked at Shang with surprise.

Was this why his aura felt so strange?

Shang didn't answer.

The Starlight Queen wasn't the biggest fan of Shang's refusal to answer, but he wasn't part of her Department, which meant it was not her place to reprimand him.

The Myriad King kept looking at Shang with interest for a couple of seconds.

Then, he summoned his Communication Crystal and looked at it.

Very quickly, his smile vanished.
