Sword God in a World of Magic

Agon just chuckled a bit.

"We conquer the three territories to the left and then another four to the north. After that, we will focus on defense," Agon said. "Are you fine with defending the tendril?"

Shang wasn't sure what Agon meant with tendril, but he could guess what he meant based on context clues.

Shang nodded. "I can deal with Early and Mid Ancestral Mages."

Agon also nodded.

Then, Agon took something out, which appeared in front of the distant Shang.

It was a purple medal with a storm cloud and a lightning bolt on it.

"Use this to communicate with others," Agon said. '"The Land and Sky Empire created something that disrupts Communication Crystals, which is why we are using these things now.

It's called a Transmission Medal. Make sure not to lose it."

Shang stretched his mind into the medal, and he could feel a deeply connected web of connections and Auras.

This was very different from Communication Crystals.

Communication Crystals weren't inherently connected to something. As long as one knew how someone's Aura felt, one could contact that person's Communication Crystal.

But the Transmission Medals had a sort of network that automatically showed Shang all of the different Auras that he could contact.

There were also identifications on all these Auras, telling Shang who it was and what their job was.

"Contact this Aura," Agon transmitted as he also transmitted the feeling of someone's Aura. "This is a Thunder working under the Starlight Queen. The Starlight Queen is responsible for this Zone, and her Thunders are the ones that give us orders."

"Tell the Aura that you are joining our mission and that you are willing to be on defense against attackers in the Early and Mid Ancestral Mage Realm," Agon explained.

Shang just wordlessly nodded and contacted the Aura.

"Report," a female voice from inside the Transmission Medal.

"I am joining the mission of Agon Skythunder and will be on defense against Early and Mid Ancestral Mages," Shang said.

"Are you Shang Sword?" the Thunder asked.

"Correct," Shang answered.

"Understood," she said. "Wait for orders."

The connection was cut, and Shang simply waited.
