Sword God in a World of Magic

The two of them just looked at each other.

Shang only had a neutral expression, while Abaddon, King Sanctified Death, had a friendly smile.

"Your soul is on the verge of collapse," Abaddon said with a smile.

Shang didn't answer.

"You only have about 50% of your soul left. You know, about 90% of Mage Lords die when I remove just 40% of their soul, and the record holder managed to survive with 55% of their soul remaining."

"But you are still alive with just 50%, and you can even fight. That's very impressive," she said with her friendly smile.

"How can your mind enter the barrier?" Shang asked, completely ignoring Abaddon's comment.

Abaddon just chuckled a bit. "Trade secret. If I were to tell you, I would need to kill you," she joked.

"You're going to try to kill me regardless," Shang answered evenly.

"No, why would I?" she said with surprise. "I'm here to talk to you, not to kill you."

"I told everyone else that I am going to kill you, but I actually just want to talk to you. Later, I will just detonate this body and act like you won. Nobody knows how my Spell works anyway."

Shang didn't show any reactions. "You're here to talk to me," he repeated with a deadpan voice.

"Just talk."

The purple-haired girl nodded several times. "Yep!"

"And what do you have to talk about?" Shang asked.

"I think we can work together," she said.

"Explain."
