"Eh? What do you plan to do?"

"Isn't that obvious? You can't simply appear at the exam with blond hair and blue eyes, don't you think? I went to a beauty shop and bought everything. I didn't expect that women here had so many of these things. The only thing I didn't find were pads."
Calina was the one puzzled now.
"Pads? What are pads?"
Rean then explained.
"That thing you girls use during your periods. After all, you can't just let the blood flow down on your legs, right?"
Calina's face immediately went red.
"Oh, right! Since you don't use pads, what do you use exactly? I can go out and buy it for you. Or could it be that you simply use some folded cloth and wash it up later? If you use a different name for it, let me know."
Surprisingly, Roan had his own opinion.
"She's a cultivator. Couldn't she simply hold it there with Spiritual Energy until she goes to the toilet?"
Calina was getting even redder.
Rean looked at Roan and pondered a bit.
"Well, that's true. But wouldn't it be uncomfortable? Besides, you can't keep track of it during a battle, right?"
Roan narrowed his eyes. He had to admit that Rean was right.
"Now that you said that, none of the women we battled or saw battling before started to bleed between their legs during it. I doubt that they would be able to keep it in there during such savage clashes."
Rean agreed with him once more.
"Perhaps all the women try to prevent doing battle during their periods?"
Roan shook his head.
"That would be too complicated. Doesn't that mean that they would have a weak moment every time it happens? I doubt they would do so."
Calina finally couldn't hold it back anymore.
"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! What the hell are you even talking about? Just leave the women's problems to the women, okay? Don't worry, we do have our own... 'products'... for these occasions. I have some in my bag too. Just don't talk about it anymore!"
Rean and Roan looked at each other and then back at Calina.
"Well, if you say so. Anyway, since you aren't planning to get pregnant anytime soon, there is no need to care about it now. Let's see what else I have here."
Calina felt helpless in that situation.
"Alright. I got a few things that can change your hair color. You will inevitably catch a lot of attention with your Peak Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation, after all. Blond hair is definitely out of the question."
Roan agreed with Rean.
"The ones who saw you in the Profound Abyss event also know that you have long hair, so we will have to cut it."
"Eh?! I need to cut my hair?"
Roan nodded.
Rean then asked something else.
"What about her blue eyes? It's not like we can dye that either."
Roan pondered a bit before saying.
"Different from blond hair, blue eyes are not all that uncommon. It should be fine, no? If someone really asks, she can say that it was a side effect of her cultivation manual. After all, she does have Water Element Affinity. Plenty of cultivation manuals bring some changes to the users' bodies too. Just in our Sect, I saw one purple, two yellows, and even one red pair eyes. I refuse to believe that those people were born like that."
Rean nodded. He couldn't use his Light Element change on her anymore since it would turn it into silver-white. The problem is that it could be perceived with a strong enough Spiritual Sense. Not to mention that if he wasn't close every day, it would eventually go back to the same blue color.
"What about her face?"
Roan nodded.
"Leave it to me. Even though her face won't change, once I'm finished with the rest, even her mother would have difficulty recognizing her."
Roan then looked at Calina.
"Well, let's start."
Roan took the bag from Rean and put Calina on a chair. Calina wanted to stop that, but Roan didn't let her. Unsurprisingly, Roan was really good at that. Well, the guy could use almost any weapon, so scissors wouldn't be anything hard for him. In the end, Calina got a pretty well-made short haircut. Of course, not short enough to be like a man's. Roan stopped at Calina's shoulder length. Still, compared to her old one, that was indeed a lot shorter and different.
Calina summoned a water mirror in front of her and was surprised. Roan's haircut job was excellent. It was to the point that she really liked the end product.
'Isn't he a little way too skillful at everything? Is there anything he can't do?'
Roan then took a few more products from the bag Rean brought and prepared a dark mixture. But before applying to Calina's hair, he asked Rean.
"How good is this thing? Can it hold in there for long?"
Rean shrugged his shoulder.
"Well, the lady in the beauty shop said that as long as you don't dye it with some other color, it definitely won't come out. According to her, this thing is a recipe from the alchemy guild. It doesn't really dye the hair. Instead, it permanently changes the color on the insides. Only when her hair grows again from the root will it come out as her natural blond one. That being said, she will have to dye her hair every now and then for her blond hair to not appear on the base."
Roan nodded.
"That's good enough. Since it really changes the hair color itself, it shouldn't be noticed even with Spiritual Sense."
Just like that, Calina began to be treated by Roan. In the end, she looked like a completely different girl. Even her eyebrows were changed into a dark color as well.
Finally, Roan took a better look at Calina from head to toe, which made the girl a little fl.u.s.tered.
"Alright. This should be enough."
Rean, who had been waiting on the side, then tossed another bag to Calina.
"You and Malaka have basically the same sizes, so I bought several clothes similar to hers. We can't let you use those special ones from the Imperial Family, after all. There are a few pants and bras there as well. Take a look inside and see which ones you want. I'll send the rest inside the Dimensional Realm."
Calina nodded and quickly left the room to try them out. She would definitely not change in front of them as Malaka did.
Rean and Roan then changed the topic as they waited. It didn't matter how embarrassed Calina might get. In their eyes, she was nothing more than a kid.
"The problem here is her Peak Foundation Establishment cultivation realm and background."
Rean nodded.
"I asked her before, and she has a blue color aptitude. It is a very good one, but not enough to bring her to this stage without a backer."
Roan pondered a bit before saying.
"The Sect Entrance Exam age limit is under 14 years old. We can have Calina tell that she is almost 14 but not there yet. The sect's test can only tell if someone is below 14, not their actual age. She has been well trained since she was a kid, just like Malaka. Her body has developed enough for others to not doubt it."
Rean agreed with him.
"That would have given her almost two extra years of cultivation in everyone's eyes. Although hard to believe, it is still possible for someone to reach this stage with a Blue Color Aptitude and this age. Malaka only got that far so soon because she has the full support of the Sect Master, after all. We just need a backer now."
Rean and Roan got stuck at that point. Jialin is just too weak compared to the countries close to the capital. It's too hard to find someone like Calina in this place.
Calina finally came out of the room, already wearing the new sets of clothes.
"I've always used the clothes given to me by the servants in the Imperial Family. Somehow, it feels quite uncomfortable."
Rean nodded.
"That's to be expected. You don't think that the clothes bought in a cheap shop would be on pair with your normal ones, right?"
Calina nodded.
"It's okay. I quite like them since I've been using the Imperial Family ones for a long time. It feels refreshing to change it a bit."
"By the way, is there anything else I need?"
Rean then sighed before saying.
"The main problem now is your background. We can't think about one good enough to explain your high cultivation."
Calina heard that and then laughed.
"Hahaha! That's not a problem at all. We just need to go to Zafa Bank, and it will be arranged."
Rean and Roan's interest was immediately piqued.
"How so?"
Calina then explained.
"Well, there are several times when the Imperial Family or its experts don't want to be identified. Because of that, we have a partnership with the Zafa Bank to help us with fake identities. They give you everything. Background, reason, etc. All I need to do is show my token of the Imperial Family."
Roan narrowed his eyes.
"Wouldn't that attract the attention of the Imperial Family in the capital? After all, you were supposed to be dead."
Calina shook her head.
"Everything has to be kept secret. Unless I cause a massive problem for the Zafa Bank itself, they will not report it back. That's part of the agreement made between the Imperial Family and them to prevent the fake identity from being found. It should be safer than any excuse you guys might come up with."
Rean and Roan looked at each other and nodded. If such identity requests are really not reported, then that is indeed their best option.
"Very well. Then, let's go there."
