So she's like a fusion of Matsurika and Maomao

@Ryrie
I know Maomao, but who is Matsurika?

Prison officer . . . pffft
There are about to be more victim by Koyou

 

[TsubasaNoHana]

Prison officer...? I guess no corpse will escape from prison ever..?

 

[welcome2atlantis]

Wow... one wrong step and people would have handled her as demonic cultivator or something. I mean, there couldn't be that many people accustomed to cadaver dissection in that era :\

All this memory stuff just reminded me of Matsurika and how long that's been.

I love it when when manga protagonists are intelligent/competent. The male and female lead both seem to be that so I'm happy

I know I'm not the only one that was curious about the source of the quotes.
As the manga said they came from Four Books and Five Classics https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Books_and_Five_Classics

"To learn and consistently practice something..." comes from Analects - 《學而 - Xue Er》first verse https://ctext.org/analects/xue-er

"When the heavens are about to place a great responsibility on a great man..." comes from Mencius - 《告子下 - Gaozi II》 35th verse https://ctext.org/mengzi/gaozi-ii

"A jade that is never cut..." comes from Book of Rites - 《學記 - Xue Ji》2nd verse https://ctext.org/liji/xue-ji

The translations on that website are quite different obviously.

This girl switches from cute ditzy genius to fucking sociopath at the drop of a hat.
