Chapter 428: Musashi's Heavenly Eye

"That was close, that was close, I almost lost my life."

After returning to the village, little Musashi panted heavily. Although she was young, she could run very fast.

And beside her, a boy looked at her curiously.

"So... you ran away? Didn't you always say you had a talent for swordsmanship, and that as long as you had a sword in your hand, even ghosts and gods could be cut in two?"

The boy was named Hikoya, and he could be considered Musashi's childhood sweetheart. Sometimes he would secretly slip Musashi a few rice balls, which kept Musashi from starving to death on the roadside.

Hearing Hikoya's words, Musashi curled her lips indifferently.

"As long as I win in the end, that's my victory, right? So choosing to run away is the best strategy! Think about it, if I died there, wouldn't I have nothing? A wolf's lifespan is only eight or ten years. If I'm still alive when it dies, then I win in the end, right?"

Huh???

Hearing Musashi's words, Hikoya was stunned for a moment, then said "Sophistry," and left a rice ball before leaving. He had to go back to practice swordsmanship, so he had to return early.

And the moment the boy left, a voice rang out in Musashi's mind:

【Life simulation is about to begin. Would you like to perform a life simulation?

Yes/No】

"Who! Who's talking!"

Little Musashi looked around blankly, but she didn't see anyone beside her.

"Is it an auditory hallucination?"

Musashi shook her little head, but the voice didn't leave her mind.

【Life simulation is about to begin. Would you like to perform a life simulation?

Yes/No】

"Who! Could it be that the Great God of Tenman has heard my voice?"

Musashi muttered to herself blankly. She had always been a devout Buddhist, and she didn't think she had anything that would be coveted by ghosts or gods, so she would rather believe that a deity had heard her voice and felt pity for her.

"I choose yes!"

Swish!

The next second, Musashi felt her vision go black, and then, in her mind, the simulation began directly.

【Day 1: You ran out of the forest with only one rice ball left. You can only hold this rice ball and walk step by step toward the small, broken temple where you live.

It was already dark when you returned to the temple. You silently built a fire, then leaned against the fire pile and picked up the rice ball to gnaw on it.

At this moment, a knock on the door rang out. You opened the door, and a man came to stay for the night. You looked him up and down, then nodded and let him in.】

"Who is he? Why can't my eyes see through him at all?"

Heavenly Eye—this was Musashi's innate ability, which could be said to be a type of Mystic Eye.

Heavenly Eye: the ability to achieve a goal once it is determined. For example, if Musashi wanted to cut off a person's head, she would see all the ways to cut off the other person's head, finally cutting the infinite future into a single one, realizing causal uniqueness.

Simply put, it means: I want to cut your head, so I will definitely be able to cut your head, unless there is no way to do so.

And the moment she saw the man just now, she found that no matter how she observed him, she couldn't see through him. At that moment, Musashi understood that this man was definitely not ordinary.

【The man told you his name was Lin Ye, and then you sat down in front of the fire. You noticed that this man kept staring at the rice ball in your hand. You thought for a moment, then handed the rice ball to Lin Ye. However, Lin Ye waved his hand at you.

"I'm not interested in this thing. Do you want to eat meat?"

Hearing the man's words, you nodded silently.】 ===== CHAPTER 430 =====
