Sword God in a World of Magic

A little bit earlier, a huge army of Mages waited near the border of the Lightning Manor.

There were thousands upon thousands.

When the war started, everyone looked with excitement toward the northwest.

There, they saw a humongous barrier with a big six and two stars on it.

Early Ancestral Mage Realm.

"What a peculiar choice," a woman with black hair and black robes muttered with a grin.

Everyone else respectfully stood behind her.

She was the general of this entire war for the Judgment Palace.

She was one of the Mage Kings belonging to Kali.

Since there was only a single attacking point for the Judgment Palace currently, the Mage King didn't have a lot to overlook and plan.

Her entire job was to take this Zone and then maybe a couple more. After that, the actual strategists could take over since it would turn into more of a normal war instead of a singular duel.

"An Early Ancestral Mage," she said with a chuckle as she looked at the distant Shang.

Right now, she could see with her Spirit Sense since the barrier was still transparent.

Shang exhibited quite an impressive aura. Under normal circumstances, she would think that Shang was someone with a fourfold Spirit Sense.

However, since there were plenty of ways to disguise and change one's aura, she didn't really trust it.

Maybe this was actually a sacrificial lamb to gain information?

Just winning the battle in the Defender Flag wasn't enough. One also had to place an Attack Flag after that.

It was also possible that the Lightning Manor actually readied all their Defender Flags for this position, ramming down one of them after the other.

Everyone knew that this territory would be the biggest hotspot.

Sending someone with a fourfold Spirit Sense into battle anywhere else would almost certainly guarantee a victory, but sending one of those into this Zone was extremely dangerous.

Was someone like that defending this spot?

Maybe.

"Any volunteers?" the Mage King asked.

The group consisting of Early Ancestral Mages looked at each other.
