A female voice can heard from the cloaked figure as she turns to face the Li-ming.


    ????: Isendra could have done better this.


    The assassin says as the ice that is holding her breaks apart when she tries to move.


    Li-ming: I knew it! You’re the one!


    Li-ming is about to cast another spell but Shang stops her by a hand gesture.


    Shang: Don’t bother trying it again. If she wants to kill you, you will be silenced before you can even speak.


    Assassin: Looks like Deckard has taught you well.


    Shang: Thank you but I don’t think you should have show up.


    Shang says while he has a knife in one of his hands.


    Assassin: Oh, I don’t remember we have any conflicts with Horadrim.


    The female assassin does not make any move when she sees Shang’s knife.


    Shang: I wonder why Isendra’s death has no effect on you? Did Viz-Jaq''taar manage to turn you into a living weapon?


    Assassin: The order has nothing to do with this. We are given orders and we follow them.


    Shang: Even if it involves killing a fellow companion?


    Assassin: Yes, even if it involves killing a fellow companion.This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.


    Shang: Then you should leave.


    Shang points his knife to the exit where the group have entered from.


    Assassin: A piece of advice. Interfering with the affairs of the Mage Clans will do you no good.


    The female assassin walks slowly to the exit.


    Shang: What if demon hunters learn the disappearance of Natalya had to do with you lot?


    Natalya was once an assassin of Khral-Harzhek which later becomes Viz-Jaq''taar before she joins the demon hunters. Shang does not think that Natalya could leave Viz-Jaq''taar without paying any price which most assassins did to cut off their connections.


    Assassin stops in her tracks when she hears that.


    Assassin: You would not dare…


    Shang: Try me…


    Shang points his knife at himself.


    There is a short silence between the Shang and the Assassin.


    Assassin: Hmph…


    The female assassin disappears into the shadows.


    Valla: Did Viz-Jaq''taar has something to do with Natalya’s disappearance?


    Valla asks when she hears the conversation.


    Shang: I can only say the chances are not that low.


    Valla: So it was a empty threat? You must be mad. No one dares to do that.


    Shang: What else can I do? Let them kill anyone who becomes a threat?


    Shang turns to look at Li-ming who is clenching her staff as she could not do anything when Shang handles the assassin.


    Shang then takes out a Horadric device and brings it closer to Li-ming.


    The Horadric device grows brighter as it is held closer.


    Valla: What is that?


    Shang: A device for detecting Nephalems.


    Li-ming is deep in her thoughts when the device is brought closer to her. She then notices it when the bright light of the device distracts her.


    Li-ming: Take it away, it is hurting my eyes.


    Shang: Oops, sorry.


    Valla:The result?


    Shang: I can confirm she is one of us.


    Li-ming: What do you mean one of us? What is that device?


    Shang: it will be a long story. Care to come along while listening?
