Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang could easily envision someone like King Sanctified Death resorting to extreme measures in order to comprehend two Concepts. In fact, Shang himself contemplated doing the same. His desire for supreme power made him open to understanding something as profound as the level six Concept of Death. However, he faced four significant challenges.

Firstly, Shang recognized the importance of having life around him.

While power remained his top priority, surrounding himself solely with death would be akin to being trapped within the Reality Tear once again.

It would render everything devoid of value, eventually leading to monotony.

Secondly, Shang lacked a Life Affinity, and it was unlikely that he would ever possess one. Although his affinity for Life may have reached a high level, it was insufficient.

Both Life and Death Affinities required compatible mindsets. Without a mindset attuned to the Death Affinity, prolonged exposure to Death Mana would quickly drive someone to self-destruction. The Life Affinity likely presented similar challenges, and Shang simply did not possess the suitable mindset.

This meant that once Shang annihilated the world, it would never return.

The third issue surprised Shang. He experienced a genuine sense of guilt when contemplating the destruction of an entire world. While Shang was willing to go to any lengths for power, he found himself uncomfortable with extinguishing all life within a world.

The notion of transforming Aterium into a realm of eternal silence and stillness did not sit well with him.

Lastly, Shang realized that he did not actually need the level six Concept of Death.

The Entropy Affinity appeared to be an even more potent and extreme form of death. Death signified the cessation of life, whereas Entropy encompassed the end of existence itself, including matter, movement, energy, space, and time.
