Sword God in a World of Magic

As soon as the cloudy barrier turned transparent again, the world seemed to freeze.

The Mage Kings looked with shock at Shang.

Shang was nearly dead, but the important word was nearly.

He was still alive.

So, this meant that Shang had won?

The Mage Kings couldn't comprehend this new reality.

A Mage with a fivefold Spirit Sense and a Death Affinity...

Had died to a warrior?

To a warrior?

A warrior?

To these Mage Kings, warriors hadn't even existed until recently.

To them, it was like warriors had only appeared about two years ago.

And yet, a warrior had managed to actually reach a level where he could even win against a Mage with a fivefold Spirit Sense?

While being at the same level?

The emotions of the Mage Kings went haywire.

Shock, fear, confusion, rage.

The Judgment Palace realized that they had lost a future Mage King, which meant that they would have one less Mage King in the future.

This menace had cost them ANOTHER Mage King!

The reality of Shang's existence was very difficult to accept.

How could a mere warrior in the Sixth Realm possibly cost an Empire this much?!

It was ridiculous!
