"This is a book written by the male, historical Miyamoto Musashi who exists in our world. It is not written by the Miyamoto Musashi that our predecessors met - by the way, that Miyamoto Musashi
The lady is probably not a heroic spirit, right?"
Mashu showed the Book of Five Rings to Fujimaru Ritsuka, and Fujimaru Ritsuka blinked.
"It should be a living human being, but powerful enough to rival heroic spirits." Fujimaru Ritsuka expressed his understanding.
"To be honest, the way Miss Miyamoto Musashi exists is a bit difficult for me to understand..."
Matthew scratched his head.
Stay alive and jump between worlds.
Different histories, different ways of existence, but using the same name, and even using the same swordsmanship...
"Perhaps we can only understand the truth by catching glimpses of the wind and shadows in such works."
"So that's it, it's the Book of Five Wheels."
Another voice sounded.
It was a samurai wearing a light purple Wu uniform who appeared beside Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu at some unknown time.
"Ah, Mr. Sasaki Kojiro!" Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes lit up.
If Miyamoto Musashi is mentioned - then the existence of Sasaki Kojiro cannot be ignored.
"no no."
Kojiro quickly waved his hand.
"Although I do call myself Sasaki Kojiro, no one knows the inner truth...I am just an incompetent samurai who secretly took over the title of Sasaki Kojiro without his master's knowledge.
."
He sighed.
"Although I have heard of Miyamoto Musashi's name, I have never met him. There is no karma or sin between me and him."
"——But, having said that, since I have obtained the name Kojiro, it is natural that I cannot ignore the existence of Shinmon Musashi."
"Sometimes...even if it is not what I want, the moment I was summoned here as Sasaki Kojiro, I gained some knowledge in the Book of Five Rings."
"In other words, Mr. Kojiro can interpret the Book of Five Rings?"
Both Mashu and Fujimaru Ritsuka are very interested in the Book of Five Rings.
"I dare not exaggerate. The most I can do is decipher the Scroll of Earth and Scroll of Water, which exist as tutorials. The rest of it is basically equivalent to guessing puzzles."
"As for the empty scroll at the end...that thing is basically just a piece of waste paper for Musashi to record his complaints."
"That is not a specific law, but an existence that exists in front of you. It is a law of cause and effect visible to both eyes."
"If converted to Buddhist terms, it might be called [nothing]."
"In other words, this is more like a philosophy book than a manual or formula book."
Sasaki Kojiro looked a little helpless and a little lost.
After all, he is not Sasaki Kojiro himself, and it is difficult to understand the fundamental existence of this book.
"Is this so..."
Matthew blinked.
Philosophy book...
"However, I haven't asked yet, why Master and Mr. Mashu are interested in Miyamoto Musashi?"
...
After a brief explanation, Sasaki Kojiro nodded.
"I see."
"A person who is somewhat elusive, but can be confirmed to be Miyamoto Musashi?" Sasaki Kojiro showed a slight smile for some reason, "Use the hands of a woman to use the Niten First Class... who calls himself Musashi,
Aiming for the realm of swordsmanship..."
"It's very interesting."
"Especially, this is a completely opposite way of existence to the way of existence below."
Although Sasaki Kojiro did inherit the name Sasaki Kojiro, he was actually not the real Sasaki Kojiro, but just one of the many "rumored" Sasaki Kojiro. In essence, he was just a mirror-like existence.
As for the female Miyamoto Musashi, although it is elusive and her existence is difficult to imagine, she is indeed Shinmon Musashi himself.
"In that case, has that female Musashi told the Master—"
"Kojiro, you have lost——"
"What about this sentence?"
Sasaki Kojiro looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka seriously and asked.
It is said in The Legend of the Swordsman that Miyamoto Musashi said this to Sasaki Kojiro who had been waiting for Shinmon Musashi on Ganliu Island and even took the initiative to throw away his scabbard.
There is no more famous line than this.
Kojiro felt that Fujimaru Ritsuka might have heard this sentence and then concluded that the woman was really Miyamoto Musashi.
"No, I didn't hear that."
To Kojiro's surprise, Fujimaru Ritsuka shook his head.
"But, even if she didn't say this line, she was indeed Musashi."
Fujimaru Ritsuka said this with great conviction.
Sasaki Kojiro showed a somewhat surprised expression, and then laughed.
"Ah, I see...this is really interesting."
"It seems that Musashi has not reached the level of the Sky Realm yet."
"So--"
Sasaki Kojiro raised his head and looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka.
"Her last opportunity may be the Master."
"Why?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka was stunned.
Kojiro didn't care about Fujimaru Ritsuka. Instead, he raised his head and said with a sigh.
"There are as many sword masters and swordsmen in Japan as the hair of an ox, and there are stars in the sky, but the one who is most admired and loved by all living beings is him——"

Wow——
boom!!!!!
Fujimaru Ritsuka felt some kind of trembling feeling.
What did she see?
That is--
It seems like a history that has been torn, cut, and fragmented.
She saw a person who seemed to be smiling in the sea of fire.
"Hahahahaha——"
"Maybe, this is also my style!"
"Since we can see such a scene, but why did things develop like this?"
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter -"
"Destiny will come eventually."
Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes suddenly turned dark black.
Nothing - can't see clearly.
Nothing - nothing can be seen.
Matthew seemed frightened, was he calling me?
I am now - unconscious?
Or what happened?
Fujimaru Ritsuka felt that he must have suddenly passed out.
After seeing the incredible scenery in front of him, he suddenly lost consciousness, as if he had been inspired by something.
Wait...has this happened before?
It seems like someone else has come to the control room... Judging from the voice, it's Mr. Samura and Ms. Shuten Doji?
And Miss Martha, Mr. Sasaki Kojiro seems to be talking about something...
