My Curse? A Different Yandere in Every Reincarnation
Chapter 42: Second Chance

Chapter 42: Second Chance

I’m taken to the magical girls’ gigantic headquarters and locked in a cell, they cuffed me with a strange handcuff, and after almost an hour they came to get me and take me to an interrogation room.

During this time, I think about how lucky we were, Flora is extremely powerful, but suffers from the same weakness as me.

Neither of us is very experienced, from what I’ve researched, Flora disappeared from the magical girls relatively early, and I’ve never trained with anyone strong, in Flora’s time there weren’t any powerful villains.

So she never had any real risky situations and never needed to train, while I never had much reason or means to train, which made both of us inexperienced.

This was noticeable when Angelica reacted to Flora’s attack while I wasn’t even able to do something similar, easily receiving them.

Flora herself seemed surprised to have been hit.

However, Rose, Azuli, and Angelica always had reasons to train and strong allies to do this training, so they are more experienced than the two of us.

I also thought about Flora’s magic, it would disappear and reappear, but it was strange, it seemed like she was playing, but it was also a bit scary.

An initial hypothesis was that she was teleporting, but that doesn’t explain her unpredictable movements, so while looking at the cell clock, I noticed something if time is slow or not moving, unpredictable attacks can occur.

I don’t have anything confirmed, but I think Flora has one of three magics either she has a super-acceleration ability, or she can Stop Time, or lastly, she can create illusions.

But the illusion one is quickly discarded since with it she could have done many different things, so only acceleration and time stop remain.

’I hope it’s acceleration...’ unfortunately, something tells me she stops time, after all, she said I would be desperate if I knew what her magic was.

Soon the 3 of them enter the room, they stand on the opposite side of the interrogation table while Angelica stays a little further away, I think the 3 of them discussed because of Angelica’s behavior in the fight.

"Listen, Shizune, it’s better to be honest and answer all our questions," Azuli says as she sits in the middle chair closest to me.

"Okay..." I confirm that I will be honest.

"You...are you really the Calamity Witch?" This question makes sense, my uniform and released magical power were different.

"Yes..." Angelica seems a bit nervous, and her look at me is one of pain, as if she had been betrayed by someone she trusted, while Rose looks at me with anger and Azuli sighs.

"Why did you do this?" Azuli asks, I decide to tell part of the truth.

"W-Well, I tried to be a magical girl, but you expelled me!! My magic wasn’t suitable for a heroine..."

"However, although I became a villain, it wasn’t just because of that..."

"Did you really kill your father?" Azuli interrupts me.

"..." I bite my lips, it will be difficult, if I lie I may lose 100% of Angelica’s trust.

"Y-Yes..." Rose looks at me with disgust, while Azuli looks at me with a certain disdain, and Angelica avoids looking at me.

"I-It wasn’t just my fault, don’t try to judge me when you have a perfect life!!" I say angrily as I see their looks.

"That damn man beat me every day, blaming me for all his stupid problems, and your hypocritical society never wanted to help me!!!" I yell at them.

"You’ll never know what it’s like to be constantly hurt, so don’t try to judge me, you’ll never feel the pain I felt" I vividly remember all these memories.

"He wasn’t innocent, he deserved to die!!!" The 3 of them look at me with a complicated look.

"A-And... I didn’t want to hurt any innocent people, you saw that in all the attacks I always avoided hurting anyone"

"B-Besides, I was deceived, Flora was manipulating me to carry out her sick plans, she hurt me to follow her will" Obviously, I have to blame Flora, she is a threat.

"...Okay, Shizune, we’ll see about that, but tell me, who is that girl?" Azuli decides to leave the subject for now and focus on Flora, but it seems more like she’s avoiding the topic of domestic abuse.

"Her name is Flora, if you research, you’ll find that she’s a former magical girl from over 500 years ago, but behind the scenes she was a cruel villain who was defeated and imprisoned in a mausoleum"

"And how is she still alive, and also how did she break free?" Azuli asks, I don’t know if she believes me or not.

"Well...that...sorry, but it’s hard to explain, and she’s not really alive, her body is dead"

"You know what my magic is after all, I came here trying to be an ally...a-and I was desperate, lonely, and didn’t trust anyone, so I sought a strong ally"

"B-But she’s not a corpse that I control, for some reason she has her own consciousness, and even when I deactivated my magic, she continued to be completely fine. I-I think she’s alive because of her own magic" I say.

"Shhh wait a minute, now that you’ve talked about magic, how did you and she get so strong?" Rose orders me to shut up and asks.

"I-I discovered that you can transform into a new form of magical girl, if you sacrifice your magic to obtain a new one...F-Flora copied what I did to have another magic...A-And Flora has two magics"

"And her other magic seems to be acceleration" They all seem surprised by these revelations, I avoid saying that she might stop time, I don’t want to scare them too much.

"...Okay, Shizune, this is a lot to take in...we’ll lock you up and then we’ll resume in another interrogation" Azuli says, getting up from the table.

"NO" I scream as I get up desperately.

"P-Please, we have to be quick, she’ll come after me, you can’t leave me locked up and alone, she’ll kill me!!!" I say desperately. Flora is certainly the Yandere who will kill me in this world.

She is dangerous and powerful.

"Shizune, you’re a villain, how do we know you’re not lying and this isn’t just your plan?" Azuli questions.

"I-I promise I’ll do whatever you want, but don’t leave me alone, if Flora comes after me, I can’t do anything alone, a-and I know I was a villain and caused a lot of problems"

"But I’m still a person, it’s not fair to judge me without even giving me a second chance"

"No one ever helped me, how can I be good if no one has ever lent me a hand, I don’t care if you keep an eye on me, I don’t have a home anymore, I don’t have money, and I don’t have anywhere to go" I try to appeal to their emotions.

"I’ll stay wherever you want, just don’t leave me trapped and alone here"

"P-Please, just give me a chance, I’ll prove I can be good, just teach me, be the first to offer me the benefit of the doubt and help" The desperation in my voice is real.

With Flora’s magic, she can easily come after me, and if she really stops time, I can’t do anything.

"...Give us some time" The 3 of them leave the room, and I hear a heated conversation.

I’m anxious here in the room, I don’t want to be imprisoned because being imprisoned means being alone.

After a few minutes, they come back.

"Okay, Shizune, we’ve decided to give you a vote of confidence..., but at the first act of evil, deception, or betrayal, we’ll lock you in a cell" Azuli says to me.

"You undoubtedly committed many crimes and must pay for them..., but we can be a little lenient because you’ve always avoided hurting civilians, so you’ll stay with me while doing community service" Azuli says as she approaches, I notice that Angelica seems to have hated the option of me staying with Azuli.

"There are some rules you must obey" She starts listing them.

"First, no controlling corpses..."

"I can’t do that" I interrupt her.

"I-I sacrificed that ability...my new magic is to decompose things I touch" I don’t mind revealing this, the more they trust me, the better.

"Okay...let’s move on to the second rule, you can’t use magic except in an emergency situation"

"Third, you can’t be alone in isolated places under any circumstances, it means that after school you must be with one of us"

"Fourth, you will help us with our heroic missions, we promise to try to capture ’Flora’, but you must cooperate by telling us everything you know"

"I promise to obey, don’t worry, I really don’t want to be killed by Flora"

"Shizune, can I ask why you’re so sure Flora will kill you?" Azuli asks.

"F-Flora always thought of terrible things, several of the plans to steal various places proposed by Flora aimed to cause thousands of deaths"

"And many other things"

"She’s a malicious person! Much more than I was, she doesn’t care about killing innocents, and I’ll certainly be a target for going against her will" I can’t explain that I’ll be killed by my Yandere.

"Okay, we’ll leave that conversation for later, you should come with us, we’ll first investigate some things and get some other doubts cleared up"
