Shang: Is it that important?

Kharazim has made a move first before Sonya could stop him. Shang was stopped instead.

Sonya: Of course it is important. My bets are on the monk.

Shang’s thoughts: With nothing.

Shang remember clearly that Sonya says her bets are on the monk but she did not mention what she is betting with.

Shang: it’s just a spar, so all bets are called off.

Sonya: But…

Shang cuts her off before she says anything.

Shang: I remember you are taking the first watch. Why are you still doing here? Are you trying to put us in danger?

Sonya: Ah!

Sonya runs off.

Shang: Sigh…

Johanna silently takes her leave after Sonya has left, leaving Shang and Leah in the area.

Leah approaches Shang and says.

Leah: Shang! I did it! I can learn martial arts!

Shang: Really? Show me your wrist of your hand

Leah: My wrist? Oh!

Leah remembers how Shang checks the patients’ health by touching their hand wrists.

Leah shows Shang the back of her hand.

Leah: Here you go.

Shang: The other side.

Shang grabs Leah’s hand and turns it so that he can check her pulse.

Shang: Yeah. It's there. You have the martial source but why is your heart beating so fast?

Shang looks up and sees a blushing Leah but fails to see the expression of blushing.

Leah: Probably it’s the stuffiness of the cellar.

Leah’s thoughts: He touched my hand! He touched my hand!

To Leah, this is first time she has physical contact with a guy who looks similar to her age.

The only men she knew are older men like Bron, Nek and Deckard Cain.

What she did not know that Shang is older than she thinks he is.

Shang: Probably. It is better if we leave this area.

Shang says while taking a sniff in the air after letting go of Leah’s hand.

Shang: Come on then. Let’s go.

Shang walks off, leaving Leah in the area.

Leah looks at the back of Shang while touching the spot where he touched.

The group continues their journey once they see the rays of sun which shines through the cellar door.

As they move along, they meet a female necromancer who was mistaken as a Wretched Mother and was nearly killed by Sonya if Shang had not noticed the difference and stopped her by diverting her axe with one finger.

Strangely the necromancer did not have a name and was cold to others and even to her rescuer, Shang. She is more concerned more about the fallen star than knowing each other in the group.

Shang notices that the necromancer’s personality is quite similar to an anime character.

Shang’s thoughts: Who was that again?

Shang watches as Leah tries to get close to the necromancer by talking but is ignored by the latter

Shang’s thoughts: Red... Oh yes! Shakugan no Shana.

The female anime character that has no name until the male protagonist gives her one.

Shang’s thoughts: But If I were to give her anime, what name will fit her?

Shang smiles after he thought of one. He then walks to the pair and says.

Shang: I think we can’t keep calling you The Chosen all the time if we need your help.

Necromancer: Names are not of importance. I am only a necromancer.

The female necromancer replies coldly.

After a short chat, The necromancer finds them annoying and decides to walk away. Before she goes far from them, Shang says something that stops her in her tracks.

Shang: Eucliwood. We will call you Eucliwood from now on. What do you think?

Eucliwood: Call me whatever you like.

Eucliwood walks away.
