A blur of red and black rushed further through the Crocus districts, zooming with intent city block after city block. Anybody perceptive enough to catch the blur's features would see a man with a look of blood lust across his face. He would push past and shove any civilians in the way, occasionally stopping to collect the valuables of any more well-off looking bystanders. There was a hunt ongoing, and the prey he chased after was shining indeed. It wasn't even about the money anymore, but just the pure satisfaction of hunting harmless prey that thought themselves better than their predator. Rather than seeking out the treasure that was originally sought, the blur merely desired the comeuppance of a rotten thief. Hypocrisy didn't cross his mind for even a moment, for there should be honor among thieves.
The blur stopped upon catching sight of his target mere meters ahead of him. Stopping, the red wind once more became Tomoe Tanaka.
"Hey! Asshole!", Tomoe called out, the tips of his fingers already gracing the handle of the sheathed sword at his side.
The thief who pilfered from a thief, known as Shank, turned around in surprise to reveal that he was sweating profusely. The Joyan assassin gave no time for the poor fool to even respond, deciding that the most fitting death for a mongrel such as he would be to grant him a death he wouldn't be able to comprehend.
"For the trouble you caused me, your king sentences you to death."A flicker of lightning. A trail of lethality. Killing intent personified. After delivering a single slash at air in front of him, the Joyan's eyes danced with glee. A horizontal arc of electricity shot forth towards the scoundrel, giving him no time to react at such close range. When the arc hit, at first there was no pain. Seconds later, the man's arms and legs became littered with cuts. Bleeding from many wounds, he had fallen unconscious before Tomoe had even finished walking over to him. As simply as swatting a mosquito, the vengeful mentor stuck his sword through Shank's neck and retracted in a single, swift motion.
"It's just business. You understand, yeah?", Tomoe spoke to the man's corpse, spitting on him after taking the stolen wallet.
Pocketing the valuables he collected, the satisfied swordsman smiled. His anger had been tamed, claiming what was rightfully his while simultaneously having two remaining underlings to force work upon. His hand was forced, and he would not allow it to be again. Thoughts circulated in his mind as he strolled back towards his remaining companions, thinking about the ways that he would need to discipline them into obeying his commands from now on. There would be no pleasure in the pain he would be forced to inflict, but it was necessary to increase his funds.
