Sword God in a World of Magic

For a couple of years, Shang worked on refining his Battle Style with the Concept of Temperatures, but it didn't take that long.

With the Concept of Temperatures comprehended, Shang now had to focus on the mysterious level five Concept of Entropy.

And for that, he needed to know a couple of methods that would help him.

So, Shang contacted the Custodian.

"Good evening, Shang. Is there something you need?" the Custodian asked.

"I want to request books from the Ancestor," he said.

"You can ask Sarah when she's your teacher to do that for you," the Custodian answered.

"I don't and won't have another teacher," Shang said.

Silence.

"That is your choice," the Custodian said. "However, I can't trouble the Ancestor right now. He is very busy with something."

"I can assure you," Shang said, "the Ancestor would want you to trouble him for this."

Far away, the Custodian looked with narrowed eyes at his Transmission Medal, but his tone remained professional. "I've worked under the Ancestor for tens of thousands of years. I am going to trust my judgment on this."

"Fine," Shang said. "How about this? If the Ancestor shows any sign of annoyance regarding your disturbance, I will fight on the frontlines for a century and will follow the Starlight Queen's orders."

This immediately piqued the Custodian's interest.

For a moment, he weighed the two options.

He really didn't want to disturb the Ancestor, but if they didn't do something about the southeastern front, he would have to disturb the Ancestor regardless.

"Will you keep your word?" the Custodian asked.

"As long as you are honest in this matter, yes," Shang said.
