Otaku Witch-Chapter 785 - 519. Mechanical Reincarnation
Chapter 785: 519. Mechanical Reincarnation
As the contemporary chief of the Eternal Pure Land, Star Burial’s status is akin to that of a Junior Sect Leader within a sect, and, barring any accidents, once she grows up, she would take over the position of High Priest and become the next leader of the Eternal Pure Land.
Hence, she naturally knew many secrets of her own organization.
The Eternal Pure Land was established during the later stages of the God King’s rise to power, precisely when the God King successfully drove the Angels out of the Witch World and began leading the world into a fugitive development.
At that time, to speed up the growth of the Witch World, increase the number of witch talents, and reduce unnecessary casualties, the God King authorized two followers to establish a department specifically to study death and reincarnation, with the ultimate goal of constructing the Underworld System.
That special department was the precursor to the Eternal Pure Land, and those two followers of the God King were the founders of the Eternal Pure Land, the ancestor teachers of their later generations.
Of course, most people only knew the honorary titles of these two ancestor teachers and not their names, but Star Burial knew them. When she first became chief, her teacher, the current High Priest, had once taken her to pay tribute to the portraits of the two ancestor teachers.
Red Moon Sage Lilith, Eternal Sage Joan.
These were the names of the two revered ancestor teachers.
The Red Moon Sage was the founder of the Underworld’s reincarnation system, while the Eternal Sage specialized even more in the Spiritual Body itself.
One pursued natural reincarnation after death, and the other sought the eternal existence of the soul, even if the body perished.
The different ideologies of the two ancestor teachers ultimately led to their parting ways. The Red Moon Sage chose to practice her achievements personally, often opting for reincarnation despite being capable of immortality.
The Eternal Sage, on the other hand, continuously guarded the Underworld. The Eternal Pure Land was later established by her to better cultivate personnel for the Underworld.
Star Burial wasn’t initially a student at the Witch Academy; she and her teammates were on a mission with Lord Clown to surveil the Angel Delegation, but somehow during the onset of Witch’s Night, she just felt an overwhelming wave of drowsiness come over her, and the next thing she knew when she regained consciousness, she was in the midst of Witch’s Night.
However, she wasn’t overly alarmed by this; in fact, she found it quite fascinating since she had never attended school…
emmmm, it also couldn’t be said that she never attended school, considering the Eternal Pure Land was essentially an academy, albeit one that was a private school specializing in training Underworld civil servants of the Underworld.
But in the Eternal Pure Land, with more specters than people, there wasn’t much in the way of entertainment. Most spent their days individually in their tomb-lab studios doing research, rarely speaking, let alone organizing activities.
Star Burial remembered the biggest event she’d ever attended was a celebration for a specter witch senior who had finally been accepted into the Underworld, who joyously invited everyone to her grave to dance and celebrate.
Yep, although Star Burial herself was a Specter Witch, she still felt that celebration was a bit too Underworld for her.
And now, having the rare opportunity to experience the Mortal World activities of the Witch Academy, Star Burial was naturally somewhat thrilled.
Especially when she learned that it was during the mid-rise period of the God King, about to engage in the final battle with the Angels, she was even more excited, thinking she might have the chance to meet the young ancestor teachers.
Of course, at that time, she was just daydreaming; after all, how could she, a little witch with neither money nor influence, have the opportunity to meet people close to the God King? Her two ancestor teachers would definitely be important figures by now, not so easily accessible.
But sometimes, reality is far more unexpected than plans.
The day after she arrived, she met Lord Clown, her superior, and not long after, she received a new mission from Lord Clown to participate in the Underworld construction plan. Then, just like that, she bizarrely became colleagues with her own ancestor teachers.
Even now, Star Burial often had the sensation of being in a dream…
Alright, she was indeed dreaming at the moment, but this really felt like she was predestined for this, what is Lord Clown’s identity anyway, and how could she so easily include me in such a top-secret plan.
Whenever she thought of her mysterious superior, Star Burial was very curious.
However, as a Judge, she still had the basic professional integrity, understanding that one should know what they need to know and not pry into things that weren’t meant to be known; sometimes, knowing too much is not beneficial. Since it was a mission from her superior, she just had to do it well.
And besides, working alongside her ancestor teachers felt incredibly amazing.
Although the ancestor teachers were not as knowledgeable as they would be in later years, seeming rather naive, and their theoretical level was not as solid as that of this visitor from the future, the ancestor teachers were after all the ancestor teachers, their Talent and brilliance were undeniable. Sometimes she would casually mention something based on future experience, and the ancestor teachers would immediately understand and extrapolate, leaving her in awe.
She had learned quite a bit from the two ancestor teachers these past days.
Of course, that was secondary; the main thing was that she was genuinely participating in the building of the Underworld, even as one of the three main people in charge of the project. This feeling of personally experiencing history gave Star Burial an exceptional sense of fulfillment.
