Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang remembered that the God had once said that there was one Mage King that actually had a foundation that supported Godhood.     

Shang was quite certain that the God had referred to King Sanctified Death.     

Shang also knew what it meant when Lucin had said that the Emperors were debating about letting King Sanctified Death become an Emperor.     

The number of Mage Kings already needed to be kept limited, and that was also true for Mage Emperors.     

The world had ten Mage Emperors, and the world probably couldn't support an eleventh Mage Emperor.     

So, when they were talking about letting King Sanctified Death become an Emperor…     

They were considering killing off one of the current Emperors. After all, as far as Shang knew, Mage Emperors could live forever. They wouldn't just randomly die.     

"Let's continue," Lucin said, motioning for Shang to follow him.     

Lucin continued down the hallway with Shang.
