3 Anger
The sun rises from the horizon.Sunlight shines upon the Bai Empire,creating this glistening image.
As the first ray of sunlight hit the manor,Tate could be seen standing at the front door of the manor.Constantly shifting the eyes left and right looking for something.
------------------------------
Two hours before this,Tate was still in his room,having just woken up early in the morning due to his habit for the past 3 years.
Tate was feeling hungry,his stomach growled for spending all day yesterday for his last ditch effort to break into the 2nd stage of the White Tiger Codex which he succeeded in doing.
He stood up and walked to the kitchen to find some food to eat.After two minutes of walking,he heard people talking in the kitchen but mostly one voice ordering the others while the others just replied back"Yes,chef"
As Tate walked into the kitchen,he saw Robert the butler wearing a white coat supervising the chef and teaching them how to cook.
"It's RAW!"said Robert whilst smashing apart the fish with his palm.[1]
"Yes,chef."
"Where is the lamb sauce!You donkey!"yelled Robert.
"Yes,chef."
This scene seems to be really familiar to a very interesting show that Tate had watched before.
After watching the scene for a few moments,Tate scanned the kitchen for some food,then he saw a slice of cake on the dining table.Remembering that it was his birthday today,he ran towards the cake excitedly and quickly sat down on a chair in front of the cake.
Hearing the commotion behind him,Robert turned his head back and saw Tate running towards the cake.He smiled and said
"Happy birthday,young master Tate."
"Thank you Uncle Robert."said Tate happily.
As Tate was ready to eat the cake,he saw a note next to the cake with words written on it.
'Happy 10th Birthday Tate,I hope that you will continue to stay strong for whatever challenges that might come in the future.'
After reading the note,he gorged down the sliced cake in a happy mood.Finishing the cake,he walked up to Robert and said
"Thank you for the cake and the note,Uncle Robert.It was delicious"
"It wasn't me"mumbled Robert.
"hmm,what's that?"asked Tate
"Nothing."said Robert with a smile.
"Uncle Robert,do you know where is father?I want to show him my progress today."asked Tate expectantly.
"Master went to an emergency meeting to discuss something important.He will probably come home soon."replied Robert.
"He will come home soon?I will wait for him at the front door."said Tate excitedly as he runs off to the the front door.
------------------------------
Present time
After waiting for almost two hours,Tate legs felt sore from standing,his excited smile changed to a dull look.
Suddenly he heard the sound of horse hooves clanking on the granite path.He saw a carriage being pulled by two horses, slowly the carriage arrived at the front door of the manor.The blinds was slid open revealing General Teah Kuang,Tate's father.
As soon as Tate saw his father,he said excitedly
"Father look at me!"
Next Tate proceeds to use beast transformation White Tiger form.After the transformation was successful,he roared showing off to his father,looking at him expectantly with his yellow eyes.
General's eyes met with Tate's.After a painful minute of waiting,the general finally opened his mouth and said calmly.
"Get out of the way."
Tate's eyes shook as he stood there petrified not believing at his own father was saying that to him.
The general continued,
"From henceforth,you will not be living here.You are not worthy being my son.Now,be a good boy and get out."
The general then closed the blinds
Snap!
Tate's body started shaking his fist clenched up.His nails digging into his palms,blood started flowing down from hands to the ground.He then shift his body to the side allowing the carriage to pass through.
Finally,Tate burst and yelled his father
"I am not worthy to be your son?You don't even know how to be a father and you tell me that I'm not worthy!Do you know how much I suffered for the past few years?!Kids at my age played with their friends and family,what about me?Every single day,I trained and when I thought I trained enough,you come at tell me to train again.At the end of the day,I don't even hear any words of encouragement from you.Who do you think I'm training so hard for?And now you are telling me I'm not worthy,well you are not worthy to be a father.I wish Mother was here instead of you.
As Tate started yelling at his dad,a crowd of people started to form.Discussing about the commotion that is happening
"Who is that yelling at the general?"
"I think that is his son."
"His son?I never knew general had a son."
"I've heard that general didn't like his son,that is why he was keep from the public"
"Yeah that sounds like true from the commotion that is happening.That child is so pitiful."
Seeing a crowd starting to form,Tate ran away while covering his face and disappeared into the crowd.
The general mumbled in the carriage"I also wish she was here instead of me.I know she could have find a way for our family to be happy again."
------------------------------
In a dark room,sat the representative of each enemy kingdoms.In the round table,there are the Snake Kingdom located at the north of the Bai Empire,the Elephant Kingdom located at the West of the Bai Empire and the Falcon kingdoms.There is another person on the table shrouded by a veil of darkness which made it impossible to determine the identity of the person.
"Now tell me,what is your contribution to this war?"said the person in darkness with a hoarse voice.
"The Snake Kingdom will provide 10000 snake archers laced with poison arrows to contribute to the war."said the Snake Kingdom representative.
"The Elephant Kingdom will provide 15000 of our best warriors with each carrying a 100 kg shields to contribute to the war"said the Elephant Kingdom representative.
"The Falcon Kingdom will provide 7500 logistics soldiers and 5000 scouts to contribute to the war"said the Falcon Kingdom representative.
"Good,with this much we will be able to dominate the war.I will give you the information gathered by my people in the emergency meeting in Bai Empire.Do what you need with the information provided."said the person clouded in darkness as he leaves the room.
When he walks out of the room,he asked
"Did anything happen when I was gone?"
He then could hear a voice whispering into his ears then he smiles
"The General Teah Kuang's son? Interesting."
