Uchiha En sat cross-legged by the river, slowly closed his eyes, then turned the roulette in his mind.
As his vision shifted, the roulette instantly disappeared, and countless points of light scattered, coalescing into lines of text.
"You have logged into the Arad Continent."
"Have I returned to the world of Dungeon Fighter Online after so long?" Uchiha En thought to himself.
"Friendly reminder: Due to the attention of Sword Saint Gonzo, your in-game class for this session has been limited to Ghost Knight."
"You were born into a wealthy family; your father was a merchant and your mother was a musician."
"You grew up healthy and happy."
"Today is your 10th birthday."
"You were infected with Kazan's Curse and gained a Ghost Hand."
"You couldn't control the power of the Ghost Hand, and it went berserk, injuring your family.
"To prevent your family from being harmed, you, at only 10 years old, left home alone."
"After drifting for a few years, you gained considerable strength and restrained the power of the Ghost Hand with a sealing ring. As long as the sealing ring is not removed, you will no longer be affected by the Ghost Hand's power."
"You wanted to go home to see them, but you were too afraid to return."
"As you hesitated, a woman's cry for help came from the nearby forest."
"You rushed over and saved the woman. The woman said her name was Seria, and to thank you for your help, she introduced you to her friends."
"You met some new friends, and you embarked on a journey with them."
"Together, you broke through the Elvenguard and arrived in Hendon Myre, a very prosperous city."
"As the adventure deepened, you gradually learned some truths hidden in the forest. Your team had disagreements; some believed you shouldn't get involved, while others felt they couldn't stand by idly after encountering it."
"You hated arguments, so you went to a tavern alone to drink."
"Your Ghost Hand caught the attention of a drunk uncle in the tavern."
"The uncle said he didn't know why, but he felt he should buy you a drink, but he had no money. So, he lent you his coat and told you to take it to find a blind uncle in town."
"You found him. The blind uncle touched the drunk uncle's clothes and then asked if you were willing to learn Wave Swordsmanship."
"You thought about it and agreed."
"Seeing your agreement, the blind uncle then blinded you."
"You went blind."
"You acquired the method to learn Wave Swordsmanship."
"You learned Mind's Eye."
"Through Mind's Eye, you perceived the power of the wave and learned the most basic Wave Swordsmanship."
"Your strength greatly increased."
"Your companions were still arguing. You decided to go alone to repair the Great Magic Array and save the forest."
"You went alone to the Dark Elf Ruins."
"You were frozen into an ice sculpture by the Zombie King."
"You died."
"Game over!"
"Obtained attribute points x5, passive skill Mind's Eye."
This was the longest text-based game Uchiha En had played since coming to the Ninja World.
And this time, he seemed to have successfully changed his class, from Ghost Knight to Ashura, and received unprecedentedly generous rewards.
Uchiha En didn't immediately choose to learn Mind's Eye but instead checked its skill description.
Skill Name: Mind's Eye.
Skill Type: Passive Skill.
Skill Effect: Perceive all things with your mind and enhance your perception. Can be leveled up through continuous use.
Skill Cost: None.
Friendly reminder: Mind's Eye has 5 levels. Each level doubles the scope of perception. The initial range is 20 meters, within which all living beings can be perceived.
After reading the skill description, Uchiha En breathed a sigh of relief.
He hadn't immediately learned Mind's Eye because he was afraid that the prerequisite for learning it would be to go blind, just like in the game.
Fortunately, Mind's Eye didn't have that requirement.
Uchiha En finally relaxed.
The moment he learned Mind's Eye, Uchiha En felt that his surroundings were different from before.
He could clearly perceive all living objects around him, whether they were small fish and shrimp in the river, or flowers, birds, insects, and fish around him, as long as they were within a 20-meter radius, he could perceive them.
In addition, Uchiha En also sensed a gaze watching him from above.
Uchiha En's first reaction to this aerial perspective was the Third Hokage's Telescope Jutsu.
However, Telescope Jutsu requires mastering the Chakra characteristics of the person being observed to use.
If it really was the Third Hokage, it meant that the Third Hokage had already mastered his Chakra characteristics.
In other words, the Third Hokage was watching him.
Thinking of this, Uchiha En suddenly felt immense pressure. Why would the Third Hokage be watching him? Just awakening the Sharingan shouldn't be enough, right?
Just as Uchiha En was recalling if he had done anything out of line, the feeling of being watched disappeared.
Uchiha En didn't dare to stay by the river any longer and hurried back to the Uchiha Clan.
Uchiha En returned to the Uchiha Clan's compound and happened to run into Uchiha Hiroshi.
"En, what's wrong? Why do you look so pale?" Uchiha Hiroshi asked.
Uchiha En hesitated for a moment and didn't tell Uchiha Hiroshi about being spied on. Instead, he made up an excuse: "Nothing, Uncle Shin. I'm just a bit tired from training, that's all."
"En, don't push yourself too hard. I know you want to avenge your parents, but you're still young, and you have a long future ahead of you. Besides, this hatred isn't yours alone; other clan members also died at the hands of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. The Clan Head and elders are already preparing to hunt down the remaining Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist to avenge our clan members."
Uchiha En nodded at these words. In this regard, the Uchiha Clan was very united.
"Oh, and one more thing. Your parents' consolation money will be released in a few days. The clan fought for a bit more for you, so it's a total of 2 million Ryo."
Hearing the figure of 2 million Ryo, Uchiha En was somewhat surprised.
Besides him, other classmates in his class also had parents who died on the battlefield during the Third Great Ninja War, and their consolation money was 500,000 Ryo per person.
Uchiha En originally thought he would likely only get a little over 1 million Ryo, and the clan wouldn't be able to get much more for him.
But he didn't expect that the consolation money this time would actually be 2 million Ryo.
2 million Ryo was a considerable sum. Uchiha En vaguely remembered that in his previous life, he had seen an introduction about the prices in Naruto.
Apparently, one Ryo was approximately equal to ten Japanese Yen. According to the average exchange rate when the Naruto manga was serialized, if converted to Chinese Yuan, one Ryo would be 0.66 Yuan, meaning about 3 Ryo was roughly 2 Chinese Yuan.
2 million Ryo would be over 1.3 million Chinese Yuan.
