After Bai Luo entered the water, he didn’t vanish into thin air. 

Once submerged, he transformed into [Hei] and used his quantum ability. 

Previously, it was mentioned that his quantum ability was not only for attack and temporary invincibility but also had a remote teleportation function. 

This teleportation ability could target both enemies and allies.

Combined with his skill [Silver] to mark targets, it was an assassination masterpiece. His current target was a subordinate of the Fatui in the courtyard.

This Fatui member had just entered the courtyard and was about to knock on Bai Luo’s door when he suddenly felt a chilling sensation around him. 

In the next moment, the space above his head began to distort, and a black line seemed to tear through the space, appearing above him.

“Gurgle…”

The black line gradually expanded, revealing an eye-like pattern, filled with red blood vessels. 

After scanning the surroundings, the eye locked onto the Fatui member. 

Once the target was confirmed, the eye’s pupil contracted sharply, turning into a beast-like vertical slit.

Bai Luo’s figure appeared behind him.

Tap

“Ahh!”

Bai Luo lightly placed his hand on the Fatui member’s shoulder, startling him. 

In Inazuma, where there were many strange occurrences, he had seen quite a few bizarre things during his stay. 

The feeling of being watched as if his soul was being seen through had already scared him.

“It’s me.”

Bai Luo removed the mask from his face and casually hung it at his waist. 

When he transformed into [Hei], his outfit also changed accordingly. 

His [Battousai] attire had also undergone some changes from the kimono he had previously bought. 

Along with the change in his outfit, the broken sword he held had also transformed.

The broken sword had turned into a reverse blade sword due to the system. 

He had options to bind both attire and weapons, and once bound, they would undergo transformations. 

For example, the twin daggers hidden at his waist.

Previously, it was mentioned that he crossed over after jumping into the river to save a child in winter. 

He didn’t carry any weapons when he jumped in, but after saving the child and being exhausted, the Fatui Harbinger [Rooster] fished him out of the water. 

According to Rooster, he was carrying this strange dagger at the time.

Later, he transformed this dagger into Hei’s weapon. 

Binding attire and weapons required certain conditions, such as color and type. 

The system wasn’t strict about them being identical, but they needed to look similar. 

This was why Bai Luo wore a red kimono to the scene today, hoping to activate the transformation without wasting time finding clothes.

The most pleasant surprise was that after switching between [Hei] and [Battousai], the attire and weapons would automatically clean themselves. 

For instance, his clothes were wet, but switching to Hei dried them instantly, saving the trouble of washing them.

Fortunately, after quantumizing, seawater no longer affected him, or he would have to switch again.

“So it’s you, Lord Ausbilder.”

The Fatui member breathed a sigh of relief upon recognizing Bai Luo. 

Those who had followed him for a long time wouldn’t be scared by such events. 

Both Bai Luo and his trained Pyro Agents had impeccable stealth abilities. 

They were used to such surprises.

However, this particular Fatui member was part of the early advance team in Inazuma and hadn’t witnessed Bai Luo’s methods before, which is why he was startled.

“What is it?”

Listening to the deafening chants of “Glory to the Shogun and her everlasting reign!” from the Tenryou Commission next door, Bai Luo already had a clue about the situation.

“Um, General Kujou Sara from next door has come to visit you, my lord. I didn’t dare to refuse her and had to come in to seek your instructions.”

Bai Luo had left stealthily without alerting anyone. Even the Fatui subordinates thought he was still inside, writing.

“Let her in,” Bai Luo instructed, signaling him to bring her over.

Bai Luo then opened his room door and walked to the table to continue writing his unfinished book.

Not long after, Kujou Sara walked in briskly. 

As she entered, she first examined Bai Luo’s attire and then looked at the bed.

She appeared as if she was catching someone in the act, but she was actually suspicious that the person on the training grounds was Bai Luo. 

She wanted to find similarities between the two and see if Bai Luo had left his clothes behind.

In the entire Inazuma City, she had the most contact with Bai Luo. 

Before the mysterious person drew his sword against the Shogun, the figure and feeling were very much like Bai Luo. 

As a current general of the Tenryou Commission, she trusted her instincts.

“Congratulations, General Sara, on winning the duel before the Shogun,” Bai Luo said, putting down his pen and congratulating her.

However, his words made Kujou Sara even more suspicious.

“How did you know I won?”

As she asked this, her right hand moved to the hilt of her sword. 

If Bai Luo couldn’t give a suitable explanation, she would attack immediately. 

Despite rumors of them being a couple, their relationship wasn’t that close.

“A duel before the Shogun is a fight to the death. Since you’re standing here alive, isn’t it obvious that you won? Or did you become a ghost to see me?”

“…”

Bai Luo’s answer left Kujou Sara slightly embarrassed. 

In her haste to find a connection between Bai Luo and the mysterious person, she had overlooked this.

“The duel had some unexpected events, but it’s essentially over.”

Kujou Sara didn’t intend to hide this from Bai Luo. 

Even if he wasn’t the mysterious intruder, given his current status, he could easily find out.

Thinking of this, her expression darkened again. 

She had long realized that the Fatui had infiltrated Inazuma, but the extent of it exceeded her expectations. 

She even suspected there were traitors within the Kujou family, though she wasn’t sure who. 

She would need to report this to the family head tonight to prepare.

“Is that so? Too bad I missed such a good show. What a pity… If not for Yae Publishing House rushing me, I would have definitely gone to cheer you on.”

Bai Luo’s statement served as an excuse for not being at the duel and to create an alibi for himself.

“Yae Publishing House?”

Hearing this, Kujou Sara looked at the paper and pen in front of Bai Luo. 

She had initially thought he was practicing calligraphy, but now it seemed he was writing?

This guy can write?

“Yes, but it seems I can’t continue.”

Indeed, before Kujou Sara arrived, he intended to keep writing, but the continuous drills and chants next door distracted him.

For example, in this passage he was writing:

The Shogun, taking advantage of the night, rode atop Yae Sakura, slapping her awake and saying sternly, “Stand properly!”
