Chapter 38: You Claim You Haven’t Read My Light Novel
"What are you writing?" Kujou Sara asked, puzzled.
In her impression, the Fatui were all about brute force, so why would this guy be writing?
Maybe after his visit to Yae Publishing House, he got the strange idea after reading "A Legend of Sword."
Ridiculous—writing light novels isn't something just anyone can do...
Initially, Kujou Sara didn't care about what Bai Luo was writing.
However, when she casually picked up the manuscript next to him, she froze.
"My Electro Archon Can't Be This Cute?!"
Did Kujou Sara know about this book?
Of course, she did.
This book had recently taken Inazuma by storm, with even hand-copied versions circulating among the resistance.
Not just light novel enthusiasts, but even some ordinary citizens had been influenced by their friends and family to buy the book.
At first, Kujou Sara read the book with a critical mindset.
She feared it would undermine the Shogun's dignity in the eyes of the people.
But the more she read, the more engrossed she became, forgetting her initial purpose.
Especially when she discovered a character named Kujou Ayase, a Tengu general in the book, she immediately saw herself in the character. @@@@
Although she was annoyed by the subtle hints of pairing her with Yae Sakurako in the story, the sweet interactions between Ayase and the Raiden Shogun had her nearly blushing with excitement.
Unfortunately, no matter how much she tried to pry, the people at Yae Publishing House wouldn't reveal the author's identity.
They claimed it was under orders from Lady Yae, quashing any thoughts she had of using her official status to force the information out.
She had thought it impossible to find the author, but unexpectedly, she stumbled upon the information without even trying.
Though she hadn’t found evidence linking Bai Luo to the mysterious intruder, she had inadvertently discovered the identity of the light novel author.
"You read my work too?" Bai Luo was taken aback and asked.
These past few days, he hadn't gone out much, and when he did, it was straight to the Tenshukaku.
So even though his subordinates mentioned his book was popular, he hadn't grasped just how popular it was.
"No, as the current general of the Tenryou Commission, why would I read such a book?" Kujou Sara replied, standing upright and exuding righteousness.
But her tightly gripping the manuscript betrayed her true thoughts.
Regardless of how thick your armor was or how advanced your defenses, they were useless against this attack, which directly affected the body.
The only way to counter it was to have a strong enough physique to withstand the blow.
Otherwise, it was unavoidable.
After using the Kuzu-Ryu-Sen, the screeching sound of sheathing his blade was also one of his skills, but it could only be used when the reverse blade was not yet sheathed.
[Active Skill: [Ryu-Myo-Sen]
Sheathes the blade at high speed, producing ultrasonic waves that cause nearby enemies to temporarily lose hearing and fall into a state of silence, unable to use any elemental abilities during the effect.]
Though brief, this was deadly for those heavily reliant on their Visions and elemental powers.
The sheathing of the blade followed by rapid movement was a result of another skill.
[Active Skill: [Sou-Ryu-Sen]
Increases movement speed by 275% and grants immunity to control effects for one second. The next strike within three seconds will hit twice.]
This double hit was essentially utilizing the same strike trajectory with an additional sheath strike.
Even if the first strike missed, it provided cover for the second sheath strike.
Overall, this made his attacks nearly unavoidable for those unaccustomed to his fighting style.
Not many would expect the sheath to be used as a weapon.
The reason Kamisato Ayato was almost cut down by Bai Luo was not just his lack of preparedness but also his underestimation of this strike.
Who would have thought this seemingly casual strike would rival the elemental skills of a Vision holder?
Had Bai Luo not quickly sheathed his sword, the Shogunate and the Kanjou Commission would likely be hunting him and Kaedehara Kazuha worldwide.
In conclusion, he was quite pleased with his new Class.
Even if he had to use [Battousai] for some shady activities in Inazuma, it would be much easier now.
After all, with so many offenses already, what was one more?
No crime could be worse than injuring the Raiden Shogun herself.
