Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang and Linay shot toward the middle of the Hadean King's island.

While they were traveling, they noticed quite a few Beast Lords. Beast Lords were pretty rare, but here, they seemed to be quite common.

That was probably due to the Hadean King's Domain.

Just like any other beast, the Hadean King was creating a huge Domain around itself, filled with Mana from its own Affinities.

The density of the Fire and Ice Mana was very high, creating a huge chessboard of extremely hot and extremely cold places.

Just by moving a couple of meters, Shang went from a place that could melt steel to a place that could turn oxygen into a liquid.

This reminded Shang of his troubles with his Ice and Fire powers when he was young. By now, these powers didn't give Shang any problems anymore since he had achieved perfect control of them.

But back then, the balance of his body's temperature had been quite important to maintain.

"The beasts are not allowed to attack a human of a lower Realm," Linay told Shang after a minute of silence.

"Realm or level?" Shang asked.

"Realm," Linay answered. ""An Initial Beast Lord is not allowed to attack a Peak Ancestral Mage, but a Peak Beast Lord is allowed to attack an Initial Mage Lord."

"Hm," Shang uttered. "I presume the Land and Sky Empire has a deal with the Hadean King."

"Correct," Linay said. "I don't know how the Land and Sky Empire is handling its Beast Kings, but the Lightning Manor only allows Beast Lords to become the new Beast Kings when they agree to our terms. Otherwise, we kill them and choose a different Beast Lord to become a Beast King."

Shang just nodded.

It was quite obvious that these rules were unfair towards beasts due to the average power of Mages and beasts.

An average Initial Mage Lord could probably fight an average Mid Beast Lord.

So, as long as a Mage was in the Late or Peak of their Realm, they could essentially move through the island unhindered.
