After a couple of hours, a High Mage entered Shang's Spirit Sense.
He was traveling at normal speeds for a High Mage that wasn't using Mana Step. Obviously, he was conserving his Mana.
The Mage was a middle-aged man with a brown beard and long red hair, wearing the typical robes of a Duke.
"He's here," Shang said after hours of silence.
Sylvia checked the surroundings with her Spirit Sense, but she couldn't find the Mage.
She had already been informed that Shang could feel others from much further away than normal, but she was still a bit surprised when she saw it with her own eyes.
"We will go according to the plan," Shang said. "I will attack him with a barrage of powerful attacks, forcing him to use up several Mana Steps to evade. You will attack, but you shouldn't go all out yet. Keep your Mana full."
