Boruto Pov:

(An hour earlier)

The bath water is contaminated by the amount of blood flowing into it.

Stupid fucking ex-master.

Still trying to lure me in. Well fuck that.

As soon as I stepped into the bath the bleeding started. Now these marks crisscross the marks I made myself; and ones that I didn't.

Their similar to the ones Lady Hinata hides on her arms.

I scrub my arms again hoping to find the source of the bleeding so I can quell it. Hopefully. Fingers crossed.

I'm careful not to get my hair or face wet. The concealer and dye won't last forever despite the advertising and I really need to hide my features now. Especially with the threat of the ex-master looming.

The cuts do little more than bleed more as I furiously scrub at them, Ugh, enough of this shit. I get out of the bath water; little more than a mix of blood, dirt and water, and dry myself with a given towel.

Obviously it's a fluffy, white towel that immediately turns red and the small fibres get stuck in the cuts.

Quickly, I pull on a pink shirt, my pants with Fae blessed pockets (cough, daggers and assorted (stolen) treasures in said pockets, cough), my cloak and a pair of shoes I found (cough, stole, cough) before putting my necklace on. The instant I put it on I feel the cuts closing and healing up.

I rush to the sink and turn the water on to clear up the blood. The would-be cuts are healing themselves rapidly, only leaving the words 'Your fault, Little Beast'.

Yeah, I know everything is my fault.

But, I also know that this necklace has serious enchantments around it if it can combat the ex-master's magic.

"Mmmmmhhhhmmm! Mmhmmm! Mmm!" A male of the age around of thirty is bound and gagged.

Fucking Camoflauge is here.

A modified shape shifter that steals his victims bodies and thoughts. As sad as the ex-master was that he couldn't kill his steals he made sure to put Camo and his skills to use.

I don my hood and leave my room, grumbling about how hungry I am.

Uncle Sasuke sure knows how to fight and he really gave me a run for my hypothetical money. Summoning that storm system really wasn't smart either. I'm low on magic, exhausted and have a bone weary tiredness seeping it.

But of course fate has other ideas. Not that fate wants to reveal itself yet.

I follow the sound of the man's panicked cries and am lead down a maze of stairs.

Ugh, Camo is such an arsehole for making me walk this far.
