7 Sinful Sights

After bidding farewell to the crown prince,Tate felt like it was just a dream.He did not expect that his problems would so easily solved but something just doesn't felt right,however the vial of blood in his pocket is making sure that this is all real.It feels like he is trapped into complicated plot that he can't get out of.

"I really don't like this feeling.Was there something wrong with the crown prince?Should I ask father about his opinion?But I don't think he would want to see me after what I said this afternoon,after all I said about him and mother.It was really cruel for me to say that.Anyways,I should train harder tomorrow,as strength is the most important aspect in this world."thought Tate.

Tate walked around looking for the nearest inn to stay in.

After walking around for a few minutes,he finally found an unassuming inn back in a corner.Walking in the inn,he was suddenly bumped by someone with a long trench coat with his face covered by his hat.Tate turned around to try say sorry,he saw something dropped out the trench coat of the man.Picking it up,Tate saw that it was a medallion that was engraved with the words 'Assasin Union' after he read the words he tried to find the man who dropped it but he was nowhere to be found.

Since that the man cannot be found,Tate just keep the medallion in his pockets.Going into his room,Tate started to feel sleepy,he tried to shake his head to get rid of the drowsiness but to no avail.Then,Tate just closed his eyes and dropped onto the bed and started to snore.

Hearing Tate's snore,the shadow in the corner started to wiggle transforming into a black panther.The panther slowly move towards Tate's bed without making any noise using it's padded paws to move.Reaching the bed,the panther stretch his paw towards the pockets of Tate.Just as his paws almost touched Tate's pockets,his paws suddenly stopped in place and transitioned back into human hands.Behind the now headless human was a man veiled in darkness holding a metal wire that is glistening under the combination of blood and moonlight.

Finishing his job,he started to clean the crime scene,washing the carpet clean of blood.He carried the human body and the panther head as he jumped from the balcony onto the roof of another building.

He took out a medallion and started to speak into it

"Mission successful,Threat:initial stage 2 Black panther,Goal:blood essence of scarlet scaled tiger,Remarks:Leaving medallion on young master Tate to show that he has been marked and won't be targeted again."

"Acknowledge."said a voice heard from the medallion.

------------------------------

The next morning,Tate woke up refresh,the sleep was really needed.There was a lot of stuff happening yesterday,it tired him a lot.

Remembering about that vial of blood essence that the crown prince gave him yesterday.He took it out and looked at the blood essence.

The blood essence looked like a viscous black with a tinge of red liquid.Looking closer,the tinge of red colour seems to resemble a shape of a scale.Looking at this vial,Tate's blood started to boil urging him to consume it.The urging seems be to get stronger every second until Tate could not resist anymore and consume it in gusto.

Once Tate ingest the blood essence,he could feel his whole body burning up,it was as if a flaming tiger saw running all over his body.The blood essence started to assimilate into his blood purify it to a certain extent,blood strings from the essence started to intertwine with the blood constricting and relaxing it's grip like it's giving a painful squeeze.Tate started coughing out those unpure black blood staining his outer clothing.

Once Tate finished coughing,Tate could feel the connection between him and the White Tiger getting stronger allowing him more control over metal while consolidating his cultivation but sadly it did not elevate him into the middle stages.

Being curious,Tate activated beast transformation and tried control metal using his will.He tried to control the metal cup on his bedside drawer to fly towards him.The metal slowly float and fly towards him,seeing this Tate wonder how far can he control this cup.He willed it to turn into a shape of a cone,the cup started to shake as its top contorted to be leaner and leaner until it became a sharp tip.

Looking at his creation,he was ecstatic about it.Then he yelled"Go."

The cone flew at a fast speed towards the wall then puncture through the wall.Quickly pulling out the cone,Tate look through the wall.

On the other side of the wall,a large burly man came into the restroom with a large white towel wrapping him from his chest until half of his thighs.He hummed and proceed with taking off his towel, suddenly he heard a choking sound when he tried to look for that sound he saw Tate's eyes bleeding through the peephole.He then proceeds to release a high pitch scream that broke the glass pane of the restroom.

Suddenly being shown such sinful sights,Tate choked on his own spit and blood started to drip down his eyes after staring at that for too long.Tate being caught peeping,he quickly dashed out of his room into the streets.

Looking at the rising sun,Tate felt like it was a beautiful day today.The sunlight felt like it was cleansing his eyes out of impurities,feeling like it's gonna be a good day coming.Tate felt like he had a pep in his steps as his quickly walk over to the army training camp.
