Sword God in a World of Magic

998 Chapter 998 - Silent End

More years passed.

By now, the world had recovered in full.

Except for the couple of Beast Kings that had been sacrificed for the Mage Kings, the world had fully recovered.

While the war was technically still ongoing, no one had truly fought in it, and people didn't even think about it.

There hadn't been any battles in thousands of years.

The war didn't even feel like it existed.

Except for the Abominations, the world had become peaceful again.

However, the existence of the Abominations had already become a normality for all the people.

While Abomination Lords had stopped appearing, Ancestral Abominations and weaker still kept appearing, but they had been appearing for such a long time that not even Mage Lords remembered a time before them.

And if not even the Mage Lords had witnessed a world without Ancestral Abominations, how would the weaker people feel?

It had always been like this.

Naturally, the appearance of the Abominations gave the world a certain feeling of doomsday, but the Empress of Death represented hope.

She had already managed to get rid of Abomination Lords.

At some point, she could also get rid of Ancestral Abominations!

They were sure!

After tens of thousands of years of terrifying war, the world was finally in an age of hope and peace.

Yet, while the general public looked at the development of the world with bright eyes, the Mage Kings and Mage Emperors felt very different.

The closer they got to the Ultimate Tournament, the more worried they got.

All of them had already seen Abaddon's power before, and they all knew that he could fight them.

He wouldn't even need to become a Mage Emperor.

Of course, if two Emperors attacked him, he probably wouldn't win.

But what after he became a Mage Emperor?

Then, they would all need to fight him simultaneously.

It was really dangerous.
