Creed
"Creed" is the eighteenth and final chapter of the manga Assassin's Creed: Blade of Shao Jun written by Minoji Kurata.
Summary
Kiyoshi Takakura tells Mari that although he called "Granny" for assistance, both of them are breaking into the facility immediately. Lisa confronts Doctor Kaori Kagami about using her for her own personal goals and how she is exactly like the Templars from the past. An Abstergo employee barges in and informs Dr. Kagami that an Assassin is here. Kiyoshi beats down the guards and he and Mari make their way towards Lisa. Dr. Kagami holds her pistol on Lisa, but she is disarmed. Lisa quickly takes down the two guards besides her and holds the gun on Dr. Kagami.
Kiyoshi and Mari come in and find Lisa freed herself while they all confront Dr. Kagami. Lisa holds the gun and thanks Dr. Kagami for helping her after shooting and destroying Dr. Kagami's Animus. Leaving Dr. Kagami to her misery, Lisa, Mari, and Kiyoshi exit the facility, only to find four guards and Saeko Mochizuki waiting for them outside. Saeko offers Lisa the choice to join the Assassins, to which she accepted. Mari also asks to join and Saeko accepts. Saeko tasks them to look for Shao Jun's Precursor box themselves as it still remains lost and the girls accept their mission.
