Sword God in a World of Magic

More and more of the barriers became clouded and impenetrable as more and more Mages started to fight.

The barriers continued being clouded for a very long time. After all, battles between roughly equal Mages took a long time to resolve.

However, there were still a few barriers that became transparent rather quickly.

And surprisingly, nearly all of these barriers had had at least one warrior fight in them.

About 50% of the warriors survived, but naturally, there were also many deaths among the warriors.

One of the Mages that had barely won took a deep breath and looked at the flag he had planted.

Over 59 minutes remained on the timer.

That was when the Mage realized something, and his eyes widened in shock and horror.

When everyone had prepared for the war, they had assumed that they would only need to fight one battle. After all, duels between Mages took hours, and the timer was only one hour.

This meant that, as long as they didn't fight someone extremely weak, they would only need to fight once to conquer the territory.

None of them had even thought about the warriors.

They knew that there were other Paths, but the other Paths were not even relevant in the Third Realm.

The different additions, evolutions, and resources the Mages had access to elevated their Battle-Strength far beyond the reach of anyone else in the Third Realm.

Sure, they had heard about a couple of warriors, but they were a fancy collectible at most.

Warriors didn't really reach the power of Mages, and if there were some that did, there would be so few that no one cared.

Yet, these warriors had appeared in the war.

And the Mage realized that he would most likely die today.

The power of the attackers was hard to discern since there were many ways of hiding someone's aura and their intensity.

But when one of the Mages won, the enemy would be able to tell quite a bit more about their power.
