Sword God in a World of Magic

970 Chapter 970 — Mindless Beast

Gregorio furrowed his brows.

"Well, an Initial Mage King has about 1 / 256th of the Mana of a Peak Mage King. That means that the Endless Ocean would only lose about two kilometers of depth. However, that would still be insanely shocking for the coastline, and the others will quickly take note of it."

"Additionally, where would you even get the Mana to become a Peak Sword King then?" Gregorio mused.

"The atmosphere," Shang answered. "Several Mage Kings have already died in the war, and since no one wanted to hand over the Mana of their Mage Kings, they just dispersed the Mana into the surroundings. There should be more than enough."

Surprisingly, Gregorio just shook his head. "That's not how it works."

"There is equilibrium in the density of Mana. A higher density of Mana increases the clarity of Concepts and the efficiency in training."

"That increases the number of powerful beings, which in turn reduces the density of Mana in the atmosphere."

"Many hibernating Ancestral Beasts have reached the Beast Lord Realm, and many Ancestral Mages managed to comprehend their second level four Concept, allowing them to become Mage Lords."

"The density of Mana compared to before the war is only a slight bit higher. If you were to become a Peak Sword King with only that, the density would drop by over

20%, and I can assure you that every Mage Lord and stronger would notice as soon as it drops by just 2% or 3%."

"The only explanation would be that there is a new being at the Eighth Rank and that they are advancing," Gregorio explained. "What about Beast Lords and Mage Lords?" Shang asked.

Gregorio leaned back in his chair as he weighed the options. "It is illegal to consume the Mana of someone you killed. If we were to do that, there would be no new Ancestral Mages, Archmages, or True Mages, effectively cutting off the new generation. We can't ruin the world we inhabit to satisfy our greed."

Shang didn't say anything.
