Sword God in a World of Magic

976 Chapter 976 — Disregard

After some minutes, Shang arrived at the place where his Isolation Barrier had been just an hour ago.

Naturally, Gregorio was already waiting there.

When he saw Shang, he felt a mixture of relief and worry.

Shang was still alive, which was a good thing, but the new color of Shang's clothing also worried him.

"Shang, what happened?" Gregorio asked.

"A couple of things, Gregorio," Shang answered.

Gregorio was surprised when Shang called him by his name.

Shang had never referred to him with his name!

'Just as expected,' Gregorio thought, 'something inside of him has changed. I only hope the Shang I know is still there.'

"Can you explain?" Gregorio asked.

"The level six Concept of Entropy, Entropy itself," Shang said. "It can only be realized by becoming an Abomination."

Gregorio took a deep breath.

"Or, at least, creating a mind with 70% Entropy and 30% Mana," Shang said. "If I had an Abomination's mind, I wouldn't be talking to you. Instead, I would be running around, absorbing Mana, and exploding."

Gregorio nodded. That was true.

"I comprehended the Concept, created a new soul, and remade my body."

"I am now free of pain, Gregorio."

"I am free of suffering."

"I am free of longevity concerns."

"And, I am free of the weakness of a human body."

Gregorio didn't like what he was hearing at all.
