The Lightning Emperor sighed again, something he had been doing quite a lot in the past minutes.
"I assume you know about the lack of Mana?" he asked.
Shang nodded. "I was under the assumption that there was only enough Mana left to let one Mage Emperor survive if I want to become a God, and maybe not even that since the Abominations might have consumed even more Mana."
The Lightning Emperor nodded solemnly. "That's right, but that's only true when you are not willing to sacrifice a big group of people for your goal. Lucius was a kind man that wasn't the biggest fan of killing."
"I assume this isn't a problem for you?"
"It isn't," Shang answered emotionlessly.
"To become a God, you need to absorb ten Emperor's worth of Mana."
"In total, there are 16 Emperor's worth of Mana in the entirety of Aterium currently," the Lightning Emperor said.
