Mazao is the student of Human God Huangquan... and even considered as a direct disciple?
Doesn’t that an Mazao is actually the junior sister of Ming Zhuo?
Little Bowl and I exchanged glances, an incredible feeling spreading within my heart.
Thinking back to the first ti I saw Huang Quan in the historical retrospective scene at the ruins of the Human Bureau Headquarters, although it was clear from his familiar tone towards Mazao, ntioning "for the sake of old friendships", it was unexpected that Mazao had once been his capable aide.
"I recall Mazao is not a Blessed Monk." I said, "aning not all monks from the Evangelical Institute are Blessed Monks?"
"Monks from the Evangelical Institute can be generally divided into Blessed and Non-Blessed categories, with the forr constituting the majority." No. 7 said, "First, the Evangelical Institute selects qualified individuals from external survivors and absorbs them into its organization. For those with high aptitude, comprehensive, rich, long-term, systematic monk education is provided so they can thrive. These talents will beco the Evangelical Institute’s cadres and upper echelon in the future, and Mazao belongs to this type.
"For those with average qualifications, who form the majority, the Evangelical Institute attempts to convert them into Blessed Monks. The advantage of this route is rapid skill developnt, allowing acquisition of great power in a short ti; the downside is failures turn into Sin Demons, and continuous growth becos difficult without fantastic breakthroughs... frankly speaking, I am of this type.
"Survivors wandering in the external world lack systematic monk education, and can only rely on luck, risking their lives nine tis out of ten, to beco Blessed Monks. The monks they access from the Evangelical Institute are practically all Blessed Monks. Naturally, they would believe all monks in the Evangelical Institute are Bless monks."
I followed up with a question: "Mazao has a disaster-attracting physique that draws countless calamities to the Evangelical Institute, a condition even more severe in this Post-mortem World reminiscent of the Doomsday Era... yet the Evangelical Institute still chooses to nurture her amidst this?"
"She possesses talents so extraordinary they cannot be hidden even by such monuntal flaws." No. 7 said nostalgically, "But in the early stages, when she hadn’t completely showcased her brilliance, there were indeed plenty of questioning voices aid at her. Her friends and teammates died from the disasters she attracted, yet she could always survive. There was a ti she was suspected of secretly murdering her friends and teammates, being a deranged serial killer.
"However, Huang Quan took a peculiar interest in Mazao’s Broom Star Physique. Perhaps Huang Quan has a scholarly nature, as he might have sensed so shocking secrets within this baffling phenonon, spurring a strong desire for research.
"After receiving educational resources provided by Huang Quan, Mazao swiftly grew. The disasters brought by her Broom Star Physique likely beca materials for her honing. Like the protagonist of certain royal adventure stories, within my perception of ti, rely under a year transford her into a Demigod of the Evangelical Institute.
"If matters proceed as everyone expects, possibly there might be a ’Mazao Evangelical Institute’ in the future. Of course... provided Mazao can beco a Human God, which is not easily achieved. Despite how many people believed she had the chance to beco the fourth Human God, the Human God is the impossible possibility. That goes beyond talent. Nevertheless, it was unmistakable she was vastly eye-catching at the ti.
"Therefore, no one expected she would betray the Evangelical Institute."
Little Bowl murmured: "—Is it due to the Evangelical Institute’s human extinction plan?"
"Analyzing her subsequent actions, this is the only possible reason." No. 7 said, "To my knowledge, initially, she didn’t oppose the plan... or rather, couldn’t. For a duration, she was even an executor in the preparatory phase of this plan, eliminating quite a few survivors in the Post-mortem World.
"For soone who forgot all her past and has no acquaintances, the Evangelical Institute was a ho accepting her, with Huang Quan being a ntor nurturing her amid the unfavorable reviews, and the human extinction plan carrying pretensions of saving the world and human race.
"In the Evangelical Institute’s environnt wholeheartedly supporting Human Gods, even when she felt uneasy, she had no choice but to heed the voice of the environnt. To the extent that this plan was drafted and initiated by her ntor Huang Quan and submitted to the Evangelical Institute Master Yama.
"She indeed had a kind-hearted side, certainly expressing dissent multiple tis, but as a child who was tongue-tied and easily swayed, it was unimaginable for her to compete against soone like Huang Quan, a wickedly clever old rogue.
"Ultimately, tasked with dirty work under persuasion, did she truly believe the nonsense about ’doing it herself might at least leave room for rcy, others doing it would only culminate in a worse disaster’? Ridiculous..."
By the end, No. 7’s tone beca slightly sarcastic and familiar. Initially, she narrated Mazao’s story with an objective detachnt, but now seed to unintentionally reveal a tone akin to that of a familiar friend.
She quickly reacted to her overly familiar tone, coughing twice under the gaze of Little Bowl and .
This was the origin of the title "Evangelical Witch".
Upon hearing this title for the first ti, I thought it was extrely dark and cool, assuming Mazao was a deep, mysterious antagonist different from the character she is now; however, hearing this, doesn’t she sound exactly like the current silly Mazao?
If mory is the most crucial elent distinguishing personalities, past Mazao and present Mazao might indeed be two different personas. However, I still felt a sense of closeness to No. 7’s portrayal of the "past Mazao".
No. 7 paused briefly and continued: "Anyway... afterwards, possibly the pressure accumulated to an extre degree, she finally couldn’t bear it, or perhaps she finally figured things out, leading to her public rebellion against the Evangelical Institute. Later, she even retaliated against other executors externally and gathered a group of victimized survivors, attempting to build a righteous force opposing the Evangelical Institute’s slaughter actions...
"Yet this small force didn’t last long before falling apart. The reasons were easily imaginable—being with Mazao ant those weak survivors, mostly not even monks, died quickly from the various anomalies attracted by the broom star power; without Mazao, they couldn’t face the Evangelical Institute’s oppression.
"After a series of chaotic conflicts, Mazao ended up with a conclusion of betrayal and loss, disappearing thereafter."
Indeed a careless bad ending, but also perfectly understandable. From my understanding of Mazao, if she could establish her own force effectively, that would be strange.
I also grasped the aning behind Huang Quan’s remarks to Mazao in the historical retrospective scene from the past.
Even if she opposed the human extinction plan, Mazao must have aid to halt the Doomsday; yet in Huang Quan’s perspective, her actions certainly deviated from the right path.
Later Mazao must have been filled with dejection, undoubtedly maintaining a solitary existence to prevent imparting misfortune onto other survivors. How perilous is isolation during the Doomsday Era, already repeated nurous tis. Besides, her devastated spirit likely exacerbated frenzy contamination, swiftly causing self-loss.
Under such conditions, she hadn’t yet beco a Sin Demon, thanks to her Power of Return. Nevertheless, she lost too many mories, ultimately unable to recall her origins or destination, reduced to a wandering "ghostly soul" in the Post-mortem World.
Then, in an unforeseen incident, this thirteen-year-old girl t another girl even younger than herself.
The two children relied on each other until another accident, where Catastrophe Demon tore them apart.
Subsequently, Mazao entered the modern world, eting .
Everything began here.
