Shang's right eye narrowed as soon as the Inquisitor asked for a Mind Read.
The entire time, the atmosphere had been somewhat jovial due to Shang's arrogant and joking retelling of the past ten years, but as soon as that question popped up, the entire atmosphere shifted to the opposite.
"Are you serious?" Shang asked with a dark tone.
The Inquisitor was quite shocked by the sudden pressure Shang was exhibiting on him just by getting genuinely upset, but he didn't let it show.
His eyes inspected Shang.
Shang was in the middle of a room inside a fortification guarded by over 30 True Mages. Additionally, even the resident Duke wasn't far away.
On top of that, the Inquisitor had had his Mana Shield active ever since the interrogation started, and lastly, Shang's weapon was placed in a completely different room.
So, even though Shang's mood put a lot of pressure on the Inquisitor, he wasn't scared.
