Sword God in a World of Magic

All the Mage Emperors looked at Kali and Gregorio.

Kali only looked at the sphere in her hand with emotionless eyes.

It was like she didn't know what she should be feeling or thinking right now.

Brutus Cesar slowly took in a breath, ready to speak up.

"WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED HERE?!"

Yet, Brutus didn't get the opportunity to say anything as Linastra exploded with rage.

"I've just been having the greatest fucking time looking at the sun, and suddenly half the fucking world is gone!" Linastra shouted, the world around her shaking under her might.

"So, again, what the fuck happened?!"

"You owe us an explanation, Gregorio," Emperor Amon said. "I think it would be best if you explained to us what happened. We don't want to jump to conclusions here."

"Explain," Empress Nivera said with a cold and commanding voice.

Kali didn't seem like her usual self, which was why everyone was asking Gregorio about what had transpired.

Gregorio closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

He didn't want to kill that many people.

He only wanted to kill Kali.

Yet, Adam, the person that should value life the most, sacrificed his own and several trillion other lives for the personification of death.

Gregorio didn't want to kill Adam.

Yet, things couldn't be changed now.

What had been done couldn't be undone.

"Some minutes ago," Gregorio started, "I found one of my strongest Mage Kings assassinated in her room with her Mana stolen."

Silence.

If the Emperors hadn't already seen what had happened here, they wouldn't have believed Gregorio so easily.

After all, who could possibly kill a powerful Mage King inside their room right beside an Emperor?

Several of the Emperors glanced at Kali.

Death had very mysterious powers and was extremely difficult to sense.

Additionally, Adam and Kali had a clear motive for wanting to kill a Mage King.

If they gathered around 40 to 50 Mage Kings' worth of Mana, they could make their son a Mage Emperor.

Naturally, Abaddon's possible ascension to the Realm of Mage Emperor had been a topic of discussion for quite a while now.
